Court spokesman Jon Sarche (sahr-SHAY') says it probably will be Tuesday before they're released.
James Holmes is accused of killing 12 people and injuring 70 at a suburban Denver theater in July. He faces murder and attempted murder charges. Prosecutors are seeking the death penalty.
Monday was the deadline for both sides to file pretrial motions on issues that don't deal with the death penalty. Because of the number of documents, court officials say they won't have them ready for release till Tuesday.
A judge could accept Holmes' plea of not guilty by reason of insanity at a hearing scheduled for Tuesday.

The Dinner: Chicken and Cashews, at Uptown China (200 Queen Anne Ave. N.).
Francois Duhamel/United Artists/Columbia Pictures Craig hunts an assassin in an empty Shanghai high-rise.
The Movie: Skyfall, at Cinerama (2100 Fourth Ave.).
The Screenplate: James Bond drinks plenty in Skyfall, which marks the 50th anniversary of the 007 series on film, but he never eats. Maybe that's one reason Daniel Craig looks so good in his tailored suits. Ian Fleming's secret agent has always been a suave epicure, with a taste for dry martinis, expensive cars, and beautiful women, but what happened to the pleasures of fine dining? Though there's much to enjoy in this somewhat overstuffed Bond adventure (the 23rd installment runs almost two and one-half hours, extending back to his childhood traumas), Fleming's old appetites have been suppressed. This is Bond on an Atkins diet, which makes Skyfall difficult to pair with dinner...Skyfall opens with a bang in Istanbul, where Bond motorcycles across rooftops in pursuit of a stolen hard drive containing the identities of undercover agents working for MI6. (Okay, mundane premise; and the movie likewise feels behind the technology curve with its sneering cyber villain, but depth of character will prevail over gadgetry.) Craig, as in his last two Bond outings, is muscular and convincing in the chase sequence, which leads him to the top of a train speeding across a chasm ... but you've surely seen the trailer, right? We know he's not been killed by a rifle shot and fall to the river below. The main problem for us is Turkish cuisine. Ephesus is all the way over in West Seattle, too far from the Cinerama.
Then, for Bond at least, after some drinking on a Mediterranean beach (a sequence that might've been enjoyably extended, like a Lonely Planet detour), it's back to London to get new orders from M (Judi Dench). The hard-drive thief is said to be in Shanghai, so--after some dull rehab and psychological evaluation--007 jets off to China. That leads to Skyfall's best sequence, as Bond tracks the assassin (Ola Rapace) in an empty high-rise, their images bouncing and obscured among glass walls by the neon outside. The two figures are like spectral doubles, two killers in the service of different employers with international reach and ambition. This long, suspenseful cat-and-mouse scene echoes a line later uttered by an MI6 superior (Ralph Fiennes): "There are no more shadows" in the spy game, the implication being that the visibly graying Bond is verging on obsolescence, that computers and satellites have made field agents redundant. The bulk of Skyfall is entertainingly devoted to 007 proving his boss wrong.
Anyway, Shanghai leads to Macau, making our choice of cuisine easy: Chinese. Back in the Bond era of, say, Roger Moore, our hero was more of a sit-down dinner kind of guy, someone who stopped to savor a meal before bedding his date. Not anymore. So I opted for the sort of convenient, mid-range Chinese restaurant where one of 007's subordinates might eat--for instance the new Q (a rumpled young Ben Whishaw, one of several new cast members being introduced to Bond franchise). Pedaling home to Queen Anne, I stopped at Uptown China, which has always suffered in my mind from not actually being in Uptown proper (despite the name), but near the Denny Way border to Belltown. It's an unfussy place without much Chinese decor. The bartender knows the regulars, and the tables are wiped down promptly. It's clean and well-lit, but nowhere nearly so romantic and red-lantern-adorned as the Macau casino where Bond meets a helpful beauty (Bérénice Marlohe) and battles a bad guy in a pit full of Komodo dragons.
Komodo dragons not being on the menu at Uptown China, I opted for a set of six pot stickers ($6.50), chicken with cashew nuts ($10.95), plus some rice and tea. That meant a bill under $25 and leftovers to box for lunch the next day (just as low-paid Q would do). Portions are generous, and the ratio of chicken/cashews to veggies is surprisingly high. (You can always order all-veggie if you prefer.) The pot stickers were spicy but the too chewy; next time I'll try the spring rolls. Eat in the bar, and you can watch sports on two screens, the volume thankfully muted.
Bond also watches TV in Skyfall, as CNN reports the deaths of the agents whose cover was blown by that pesky hard drive. Their lives are merely instrumental to MI6, and Bond has reason to worry that M also views him more as a tool than a man. Craig shows little emotion or appetite in the movie until its moving final scenes; food and women are mere distractions from his lethal job, and he wants to prove himself fit for that job. As a result, though well directed by Sam Mendes (American Beauty, Revolutionary Road, etc.), the movie risks making Bond just another automaton like Jason Bourne or Ethan Hunt or Jason Statham's nameless transporter--jumping off bridges and onto trains, never stopping to quip or eat or smell the roses. Prior Bonds were cruel (Connery), flippant (Moore), angry (Dalton), or arch (Brosnan), but those are all aspects of humanity. It's not until late in the film, as Bond's roots are explored, that Skyfall gains some satisfying depth. (There, too, M's character comes into poignant relief.)
However, Bond wouldn't eat at China Uptown, and neither would M, and neither would giggling blonde villain Silva (Javier Bardem), who comes into the picture much too late. Wearing a white disco suit and sporting suspiciously white teeth, Silva is the computer genius/super hacker--again, this is where Skyfall feels really dated, like an AOL dial-up tone from the '90s--who reveals his secret weapon to be ... get ready for it ... servers. Yes, a room full of servers in which he can "point and click" his way to evil and fortune. Captive Bond looks truly bored as Silva explains all this, and so are we. Silva's relationship to M is slightly more interesting (and familiar to readers of Mary Shelley), but Bardem seems wasted. Silva captures Bond. Bond captures Silva. Then during their final Straw Dogs showdown, I found myself thinking, "Hey, computer genius, why not call in the helicopter air strike first? Then send in your goons to clean up."
Still, despite the gray in his beard, Craig should take the money for another Bond outing or two. He brings the most gravity to the role since Connery, and he's the best actor ever to have played the part. But if there's to be a Bond XIV, could we go back in time or confine the action to an island without computers, cell phones, and satellite surveillance? All the technology reduces the man. When, in one of Skyfall's better gags, Bond and M drive north in a vintage Aston Martin DB5, the ride is bouncy and terrible, and he speaks of "going back in time." I might not go back to Uptown China, but the next, hopefully shorter Bond movie should go back to basics.

Legislators miss deadline on state budget
So much for bipartisan harmony, huh?
A year after the state passed its first on-time budget since 2000, Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger and the Legislature have blown by the June 30 deadline as negotiations once again have fallen into partisan discord.
With the budget requiring a two-thirds vote, this is one of the few times when the Republican minority wields any power, and the GOP is taking advantage of it. Republicans from both houses say they will not vote for the budget until spending is brought in line with projected revenue for the coming year.
Democrats counter that their plan is balanced, even if it relies on last year's carryover balance to cover this year's expenses. Their plan also resembles proposals by the Republican governor.
That all could add up to a protracted budget fight, which probably isn't what the governor had in mind when he declared a new era of cooperation in Sacramento.
"The tail end is always the hardest," said Senate Republican Leader Dick Ackerman of Irvine, one of four legislative leaders who will meet in private and with the governor to negotiate the budget. Even though some 81 lawmakers ultimately will have to publicly vote for the budget, the deal will be worked out in private by these leaders, known collectively as the Big 5.
"We can't continue to spend more than we take in," Ackerman said.
Republicans say the budget plan spends roughly $2 billion more than state expects to collect, up from a $1.5 billion gap under the governor's May proposal. Democrats, they say, must throttle back spending; however, Republicans so far have been loath to publicly offer many specifics on where to cut.
"That will happen in those negotiations between the legislative leaders," said Roger Niello, R-Sacramento, vice chairman of the Assembly Budget Committee, last week. "(We) would be hampering those efforts if we were to throw out those specifics right now."
Democrats say they've already reined in spending as much as they can and do not believe the government should forsake cost-of-living increases for social programs when the state has money in the bank.
"We did over a billion dollars in cuts we did not want to do," said Assembly Budget Chairman John Laird, D-Santa Cruz.
Democrats also say their budget plan maintains the $2.1 billion reserve that the governor proposed while paying off billions in debt and not creating any new social programs.
"The Republicans miscalculated big time when they thought Democrats would cave because of the term limits initiative," said Steve Maviglio, spokesman for Assembly Speaker Fabian Nuñez, D-Los Angeles, referring to Capitol buzz that Democrats would yield on the budget to gain votes for the term limit measure aimed at the February ballot.
The other buzz is that Republicans are standing firm to bolster their conservative credentials. GOP members say they just want a balanced budget.
The governor has been largely quiet on the budget, although he acknowledged negotiations are difficult this year because the state's revenue picture is weak.
"The negotiations are going well," Schwarzenegger said. "There's no name calling. I think they're very civilized, and I think they know they have to do the best they can for the state and for the people. But it's very difficult."
In the short term, there are few consequences for a late budget. The state can continue paying for essential services and ongoing appropriations, such as Medi-Cal, welfare and income tax refunds. However, as the stalemate persists and July drags on, the state will have more and more trouble paying bills.
One of the first things to go unpaid is the salaries of legislators and their staffs, which will happen around mid-July. Sacramento banks, however, offer staffers no-interest loans when the budget is late so their personal lives aren't affected.
"It's almost part of veteran staff's responsibility to (ask) new staff about where they bank to see if they do no-interest loans during budget impasses," said John Scribner, chief of staff for Sen. Lou Correa, D-Santa Ana. "It's a part of doing business."

Author's Themes Alike & Different
Isabel Allende, author of the story And of Clay Are We Created, and Bradley Graham, author of the newspaper article "Ill-Equipped Rescuers Dig Out Volcano Victims; Aid Slow to Reach Columbian Town" both provide a purpose, point of view, tone and descriptive details that reveal the similarities and differences within the two genres distinguished as fiction and non-fiction. One of the numerous similarities revealed from both of the pieces is the mentioning of the young, thirteen year-old girl who was trapped in the thick mud, and there was a thin chance or probability that she will ever be freed or survive. Another major similarity found within the two genres are the descriptive details of the horrors that resulted and the tragedy many people experienced from the violent volcano eruption. In both stories, details of the thousands of civilians who were buried in the mud and the area being declared "holy ground" due to the excessive amount of corpses that had to be left in the same area where they died were told in both texts. "He added that it was impossible to remove all the corpses or count the thousands who had disappeared; the entire valley would be declared holy ground, and bishops would come to celebrate a solemn mass for the souls of the victims" (Allende 264). Both genres exemplified the intensity or magnitude of the devastating damage done to the land after the eruption. Though these two pieces possess distinct similarities, there are also many major differences between them that signalize or provide the barrier between a fiction piece and a non-fiction piece. In the story by Allende, Allende's purpose in writing the story differentiates from Graham's purpose in which her purpose was to allow an emotional connection, to inform the readers about the horrors that occurred in the story, and to portray to the readers that even the best efforts fail.

She eats Simply Nourish LB puppy food, which is chicken and brown rice. I don't think that's the problem at all, since she transitioned to it very easily just a week after we had her. And we haven't increased the amount we're feeding her recently. Except that the other day we remembered she did have more treats (dried liver pieces) than usual. We took her on a walk and were working to get her better about walking right with us. That could be it, I suppose. My husband also said maybe it's the enormous amount of Bitter Apple spray she has ingested with all her chewing lately.
She normally poops 3 times a day. Once after each meal. Lately she's either pooping a ton, or not at all. She's only pooped once since early this morning. Who knows?
I took her temperature and it was normal.
I guess she was crying. I didn't hear her at all. I feel terrible about it. Today she is alternately feisty and playful or very calm and nappy. We'll see how tonight goes. She's hungry, that's for sure.

Well, we made it through the night with no potty problems! We got up around 6:45 and she peed then played fetch for a little while. We came in and 10-15 minutes later she was at the back door whining. I took her back out and she pooped! It was back to almost-normal.
So maybe she's worked things through her system. I can tell she definitely feels better today.
Now we just have the eye drops to continue. And I'm going to keep treats/rewards to a minimum for a little while.
On to the day!

Peaches: Excellent pictures! I loved the one of the older dogs all swimming up to their necks.
Dug was doing amazingly well with potty training from day one, only two accidents in a week and a half time period, then he got a u.t.i, and there were quite a few pee accidents, but those don't count in my mind. Since his u.t.i has cleared up, he has had one poop incident on the dining room floor~ thank goodness we have hardwood, otherwise the clean freak within may be having anxiety. We take him out non stop, which could be bad I suppose, because we're not really giving him much of an opportunity to actually "tell" us he has t go. We have considered getting the Tell Bell. How many of you are using the bell method and what are your thoughts/opinions on it?
I have been trying to upload pictures for days now, with no luck. I've tried from two different computers and each time it tells me there is a server error. Anyone have any idea how I can stop this from happening? I'm eager to share pictures of Dug in all his cuteness.
That is great that TL is on the mend! What a relief not to worry about every little thing you feed her, I know that is a pain.
I understand what you mean about Dug. I feel like we take Peaches out a lot but as our trainer says, its a lot faster to take them out than to clean up a mess!
We tried to do the bells but all Peaches wanted to do is eat the string holding them and play with them so I didn't pursue it further. Good luck on it! I hope you can upload pics soon!
Libby uses bells to tell us when she has to go. She has had great success with it . It really helps when I am upstairs getting ready for my day and I can hear her ringing them downstairs. I would highly recommend them until they are fully trained and they can hold it a lot longer.
Good luck!

Just checking in! Monty will be 15 weeks this Sunday! I can't believe how fast it's going!! Potty training is close to perfect--only one pee-pee accident in the past 2 weeks. I can't even remember the last time he pooped in the house it's been so long. But he's not perfect! LOL! He found the garbages! OH NO!! And he found that he can reach the table and the counters when stading on his hind legs. The bathroom garbage is the worst! He is constantly coming out of the bathroom with kleenex in his mouth!! Dinner was almost snatched last night from the table while we were setting it. So, although he's still a good boy, I have to be more watchful of where he's at!!
Goldens Born on October 2012
Autumn2011, glad to hear Dug's on the mend!
Nikki, I totally relate to the Kleenex (just posted a pic of Gretzky and toilet paper!) and the counter / table surfing. Seems like they learn something devious with every "good" command!!
Gretzky saw the opthamologist again on Saturday. He's doing well overall, although the left eye is just cyst and no actual eye tissue. We'll have to remove it, probably around 6 months. It doesn't bother him at all, sweet boy.
Sent from my iPhone using Petguide.com App
so glad that Gretzky's eye is nothing terribly serious.
So Nikki I understand about all the naughtiness on top of the cuteness!~
Today was just a hard day for me. Does anyone ever have those days? The kind that wear you out and you just wish you could veg out without worrying about the dogs getting into something. Peaches was just into everything and had a pee pee accident so I was stressed out about that. It is like just when I let my guard down after she hasn't had an accident in forever she goes and pees by the door. So the rest of my day was micromanaging everything she did in order to catch her before she had an accident. It seems like she is way behind your pups in the housebreaking. She is going to the vet tomorrow for her third set of shots so I'll see if they can check her for a UTI or give me some advice. We do everything that is out there to do so I don't know if what she is doing is normal or if she really is behind. It sounds like all of your dogs are so far advanced on that.
Well, I'm completely exhausted mentally and physically. RAin sucks in puppy land that is for sure!
You guys I just found this amazing video about teaching your pup impulse control. I just did one session with Libby for about 10 mins and WHOA what a difference.
I don't want this post to be too long winded, but I will give you a glimpse at why I wanted Libby to learn this. Whenever we do our training sessions and she does a command correctly I want to give her a treat, however as I am about to give it to her, she lunges towards my hand. It has gotten a lot better because I taught her "take it nice" and I wont let her have it unless she takes the treat without lunging or chomping on my hand. Well let me tell you, this new training technique works 100% better and she caught on SOOOOO quickly!!!!
I think this is such an important skill for our pups to know so that they dont jump on tables, counters, get into trash etc. Basically you rewarded them when they avoid the temptation. In this case its the treat in my hand.
Let me say I am going to start EVERY training session with this. Because never before has she looked into my eyes to see if I will give her the treat. Her focus has always been on my hand with the treats. After one session of doing this, she watches me, and waits. She doesn't lunge, she takes the treats so gently.
I really just cant say enough about this training technique.
So try it with your pups and see if it works. Libby didn't quite catch on as quickly as the pup in the video. But I still saw results VERY quickly.
Take care guys!
Libby's Mom, Meg

python-utils / doc / array.rst
array - Converting sequences
This module provides various functions and classes to access sequences and buffer-style objects in different ways. It also provides conversion routines to improve the interoperability of sequences with :mod:`ctypes` data types.
Providing read-write access for sequential data
Two classes allow you to access sequential data in different ways. The :class:`CTypesView` provides byte-wise access to iterable objects and allows you to convert the object representation to matching byte-widths for :mod:`ctypes` or other modules.
Depending on the the underlying object and the chosen size of each particular item of the object, the :class:`CTypesView` allows you to operate directly on different representations of the object's contents.
>>> text = bytearray("Hello, I am a simple ASCII string!") >>> ctview = CTypesView(text, itemsize=1) >>> ctview.view[0] = 0x61 >>> print(text) aello, I am a simple ASCII string!" >>> ctview.to_uint16()[3] = 0x6554 >>> print(text) aello,Te am a simple ASCII string!"
The snippet above provides a single-byte sized view on a :func:`bytearray` object. Afterwards, the first item of the view is changed, which causes a change on the :func:`bytearray`, on the first item as well, since both, the :class:`CTypesView` and the :func:`bytearray` provide a byte-wise access to the contents.
By using :meth:`CTypesView.to_uint16()`, we change the access representation to a 2-byte unsigned integer :mod:`ctypes` pointer and change the fourth 2-byte value, I to something else.
>>> text = bytearray("Hello, I am a simple ASCII string!") >>> ctview = CTypesView(text, itemsize=2) >>> ctview.view[0] = 0x61 >>> print(text) aello, I am a simple ASCII string!" >>> ctview.to_uint16()[3] = 0x6554 >>> print(text) aello,Te am a simple ASCII string!"
If the encapsuled object does not provide a (writeable) :func:`buffer` interface, but is iterable, the :class:`CTypesView` will create an internal copy of the object data using Python's :mod:`array` module and perform all operations on that copy.
>>> mylist = [18, 52, 86, 120, 154, 188, 222, 240] >>> ctview = CTypesView(mylist, itemsize=1, docopy=True) >>> print(ctview.object) array('B', [18, 52, 86, 120, 154, 188, 222, 240]) >>> ctview.view[3] = 0xFF >>> print(mylist) [18, 52, 86, 120, 154, 188, 222, 240] >>> print(ctview.object) array('B', [18, 52, 86, 255, 154, 188, 222, 240])
As for directly accessible objects, you can define your own itemsize to be used. If the iterable does not provide a direct byte access to their contents, this won't have any effect except for resizing the item widths.
>>> mylist = [18, 52, 86, 120, 154, 188, 222, 240] >>> ctview = CTypesView(mylist, itemsize=4, docopy=True) >>> print(ctview.object) array('I', [18L, 52L, 86L, 120L, 154L, 188L, 222L, 240L])
Accessing data over multiple dimensions
The second class, :class:`MemoryView` provides an interface to access data over multiple dimensions. You can layout and access a simple byte stream over e.g. two or more axes, providing a greater flexibility for functional operations and complex data.
Let's assume, we are reading image data from a file stream into some buffer object and want to access and manipulate the image data. Images feature two axes, one being the width, the other being the height, defining a rectangular graphics area.
When we read all data from the file, we have an one-dimensional view of the image graphics. The :class:`MemoryView` allows us to define a two-dimensional view over the image graphics, so that we can operate on both, rows and columns of the image.
>>> imagedata = bytearray("some 1-byte graphics data") >>> view = MemoryView(imagedata, 1, (5, 5)) >>> print(view) [[s, o, m, e, ], [1, -, b, y, t], [e, , g, r, a], [p, h, i, c, s], [ , d, a, t, a]] >>> for row in view: ... print(row) ... [s, o, m, e, ] [1, -, b, y, t] [e, , g, r, a] [p, h, i, c, s] [ , d, a, t, a] >>> for row in view: ... row[1] = "X" ... print row ... [s, X, m, e, ] [1, X, b, y, t] [e, X, g, r, a] [p, X, i, c, s] [ , X, a, t, a] >>> print(imagedata) sXme 1XbyteXgrapXics Xata
On accessing a particular dimension of a :class:`MemoryView`, a new :class:`MemoryView` is created, if it does not access a single element.
>>> firstrow = view[0] >>> type(firstrow) <class 'mule.array.MemoryView'> >>> type(firstrow[0]) <type 'bytearray'>
A :class:`MemoryView` features, similar to Python's builtin :class:`memoryview`, dimensions and strides, accessible via the :attr:`MemoryView.ndim` and :attr:`MemoryView.strides` attributes.
>>> view.ndim 2 >>> view.strides (5, 5)
The :attr:`MemoryView.strides`, which have to be passed on creating a new :class:`MemoryView`, define the layout of the data over different dimensions. In the example above, we created a 5x5 two-dimensional view to the image graphics.
>>> twobytes = MemoryView(imagedata, 2, (5, 1)) >>> print(twobytes) [[sX, me, 1, Xb, yt], [eX, gr, ap, Xi, cs]]

Federal Reserve chair Janet Yellen rocked the markets with
three words.
In her March 19 press conference she said the central bank
would start to raise short term rates in perhaps "about three
months" after the end of tapering.
The market turned somersaults. "It was seen as a change in Fed
guidance, moving up potential rate hikes by about six months, so
it actually made short-term rates rise a bit," said Jay Mueller,
senior manager of $699 million Wells Fargo Advantage Short-Term
Bond Fund .
That volatility held taxable funds overall to a modest 0.16%
gain on average for March, according to preliminary Lipper Inc.
data. That cut their advance for the first quarter to 1.97%.
Emerging markets local-currency debt funds led the way last
month. Their 1.20% gain boosted their Q1 return to 2.44%.
Treasury funds lost 0.14% in March, trimming their Q1 rise to
3.63%. In January, Treasury funds jumped 3.29%, spooked by signs
of investor flight from emerging markets amid currency and growth
concerns. Risk appetite returned in February as investors
hammered just the few emerging markets they decided were at
greatest risk.
In March, Ginnie Mae funds lost 0.40%, limiting their Q1 gain
to 1.70%.
Damage Control
The damage to taxables was already done by March 31, when
Yellen said the Fed would not raise rates soon.
On longer Treasuries, prices got pushed up by global events --
the slowdown in China and Russia's invasion of Crimea.
So as the yield on 10-year notes fell 31 basis points to
2.73%, the yield on two-year notes rose 7 points to 0.45%. That
flattened the yield curve in Q1.
Mueller's outlook calls for more of what investors saw in
March. "Rates are going up, though gradually," he said. "And the
Fed will stay the course."
He expects the Fed to start raising short-term rates around
midyear 2015. That timetable is now built into the market, said
Mueller, also senior portfolio manager of $1.9 billion Advantage
Ultra Short-Term Income .
All along the curve, Wells Fargo favors investment-grade
corporates. In the short end of the market -- bonds with
maturities of one to five years -- Mueller continues to favor
commercial mortgage-backed securities.
During Q1 he owned an investment grade, five-year bond
fromVerizon Communications (
), rated Baa1 by Moody's, maturing Sept. 14, 2018, with a 3.68%
coupon. Its price in Q1 rose to 106.45 from 105.86, for a total
return of 1.41%, reflecting investor appetite for shorter
maturities. "And it's a big issue that's well known," Mueller
Tax-exempt bond funds were up 3.24% on average in Q1, after
eking out a 0.16% March gain.
Yellen's remarks hit munis, especially on the short end, as
well as taxables. Investors interpreted Yellen's comments to mean
the Fed would raise short-term rates sooner than expected. As
many investors exited short-term debt, yields and rates rose,
said Christopher Ryon, co-manager of three Thornburg funds,
including $6.6 billion Limited-Term Muni .
For munis overall in Q1, low supply helped boost prices. New
issuance was down about 35% vs. last year, Ryon said. And demand
was up. Muni bond funds had 10 weeks in a row of net inflow
through March 19, according to the Investment Company Institute.
That followed 33 straight weeks of outflow.
Ryon thinks muni funds already have scored their price gains
for the year. "I don't expect any great capital appreciation
going forward, just earning your income," he said.
Ryon was also concerned about Puerto Rico, despite its
successful $3.5 billion bond sale in March. Ryon warned that he
expects the island to be forced to restructure its debt within a
few years. And he disagrees with the Commonwealth's claim that
the recent issuance is senior to outstanding legacy debt.
Detroit is another potential problem area if the bankruptcy
court forces bondholders to take a proportionately bigger haircut
than pensioners do. That decision could come within 90 days.
He owned a bond for the Poseiden desalinization plant in
Southern California. Maturing in 2045, it was rated Baa3 by
Moody's, has a 5% coupon and is callable July 1, 2022, at par.
Soaring 14.72 in price in Q1, it returned about 19.5% vs. 3.8%
for the BofA Merrill Lynch U.S. Muni Index. It benefited from
investor flight from short-term bonds.

|Irish Coffee: Rajon Rondo's recovery
|12.22.10 at 12:26 pm ET
Wake up with the Celtics and your daily dose of Irish Coffee '¦
Rajon Rondo isn't exactly Charles Barkley when it comes to talking to the media, but he's quietly letting us in on his rehabilitation progress as he recovers from a sprained ankle — through his Twitter page …
Dec. 16: "Another great team effort tonight. A lot of treatment. Elevating my foot now, watching the game."
Dec. 18: "Ankle is feeling better. Out of the boot. Still got a ways to go. Treatment twice a day."
Dec. 21: "I love my new video game. Still keeping my foot elevated." (see accompanying photo)
Now, I know what you're all thinking: Where can I get a full-sized H2Overdrive arcade cabinet like the one Rondo uses to elevate his foot? It makes a great stocking stuffer for just $8,200.
It's been exactly one week since Celtics president Danny Ainge threw out "a couple of weeks" as a timeframe for Rondo's return. The first game after that two-week window is against the Pistons on Dec. 29, but do they really need Rondo to beat Detroit? Answer: No. They could probably start Avery Bradley and still win.
Two days later, however, the Celtics host Chris Paul and the Hornets. We all know how Rondo gears up to play the NBA's best point guards, and some consider Paul the best in the game. You can bet Rondo will want to play in that game. The only question is whether Ainge, Doc Rivers and the training staff will let him.
Ever-so-slowly, as their winning streak has stretched to an NBA-best 13 games — while the Mavericks, Heat and Knicks have snapped their streaks — the Celtics are gaining a monopoly on the national media's NBA Power Rankings.
Here's where the C's rank, according to six major national media outlets:
|Irish Coffee: The Celtics' bench struggles
|12.21.10 at 12:16 pm ET
Wake up with the Celtics and your daily dose of Irish Coffee '¦
Remember when a lot of people — including me — believed the Celtics had the best bench in the NBA? Well, they don't. At least not now.
The second unit that C's head coach Doc Rivers had cultivated to give his veteran starters their much-needed rest throughout the 82-game NBA season was supposed to look like this: Nate Robinson, Delonte West, Marquis Daniels, Glen Davis and Shaquille O'Neal.
On paper, that lineup looks good. Very good. Unfortunately, wrists, ankles and knees aren't made out of paper. As a result, the Celtics' reserves rank 24th out of 30 NBA teams, according to Hoopsstats.com's efficiency differential.
West's suspension and subsequent broken wrist have kept him out of all but five games. Shaq and Jermaine O'Neal have been a pain in the knee, missing a combined 28 games and vaulting a third-string guy (Semih Erden) into four starts. And Rajon Rondo's feet, hamstring and ankle soreness, tweaks and sprains haven't helped, either, forcing one of the original sencond unit's go-to scorers (Robinson) into a starting role six times.
Put those injuries to paper, and the Celtics' bench has produced better than only one team that would be in the postseason if the playoffs started today — the Trail Blazers, who have had more injuries than King Leonidas' men in the movie "300."
Here's where the C's reserves rank in the league statistically per game this season:
Minutes: 22nd
Points: 17th
Rebounds: 25th (22nd defensive/30th offensive)
Assists: 26th
Steals: 18th
Blocks: 18th
Turnovers: 10th
Field-goal percentage: 1st
3-point field goal percentage: 23rd
Free-throw percentage: 19th
And here's where their opponents' bench's production against them ranks:
|Irish Coffee: Celtics are 'Best of the Best'
|12.20.10 at 12:03 pm ET
Wake up with the Celtics and your daily dose of Irish Coffee '¦
In somewhat of a footnote in his most recent Sports Illustrated column, Ian Thomsen listed the records of NBA teams against oppoenents with a .500 record or better. You'll never guess which team ranked atop the list.
Every day, people are coming up with new ways to capture how impressive the 2010-11 Celtics have been despite injuries that are piling up faster than my Christmas shopping list.
But the fact that the Celtics are 10-2 against above-.500 teams while no other Eastern Conference club has a winning record against those same squads might tell us all we need to know about the C's chances of returning to the NBA Finals.
Against the best, the Celtics have been the best.
Only three teams in the entire league own a winning record against plus-.500 teams: the Celtics (10-2), Spurs (8-2) and Mavericks (9-3). Three others — the Thunder, Nuggets and Jazz — have .500 records against teams with winning records.
Considering the Spurs and Mavericks have been relatively healthy this season, what the Celtics have been able to accomplish is remarkable, as Rajon Rondo, Shaquille O'Neal, Delonte West, Jermaine O'Neal and Kendrick Perkins have missed a combined 81 games already.
The Celtics' biggest competitors in the East — the Heat (5-6), Magic (3-6) and Bulls (4-8) — have all been disappointing against above-.500 teams, as have the Knicks (3-5) and Hawks (2-7). In fact, 10 teams have two wins or fewer against opponents with a .500 record or better, including the Lakers, who are 1-3 in just four games against quality opponents this season.

David Ortiz sat down with Scoop Jackson to talk basketball for a Jim Beam promotion. Wrap your head around that. Among other things, Big Papi said, "If you can play basketball, every other sport is easy." There are a ton of other short videos, including more on Papi in addition to Larry Izzo and Kevin Faulk on football. NBA players Ron Artest, Lamar Odom, Danny Granger, Kevin Love and Jordan Farmar also took part in the ad campaign.
|Kevin Garnett and Paul Pierce star in 'True Grit' – Celtics style
|12.17.10 at 10:24 am ET
John Wayne and Jeff Bridges have nothing on Kevin Garnett and Paul Pierce.
Garnett inspired the weary and wounded Celtics with 17 points and 14 rebounds while Pierce restored order to the offense as Nate Robinson was finding his way. KG and Pierce were the two biggest reasons the Celtics ran their winning streak to 12 games in a 102-90 win over the Atlanta Hawks at TD Garden on Thursday night.
The 12-game run matches their longest since they set the franchise record of 19 back in the 2008-09 season. Glen Davis had 18 points off a shorthanded Celtics bench. How shorthanded?
The team found out just before the game they would be without Rajon Rondo for couple of weeks as GM Danny Ainge told WEEI that his sprained left ankle needed time to heal. Robinson started and – after a rocky first half – provided an emotional boost with 14 points and five assists in 41 minutes.
Shaquille O'Neal missed his fourth straight game with a strained right calf. Von Wafer came up with a sore back in the first half and was unavailable in the second half, giving the Celtics four healthy bench players. Semih Erden scored 10 points in 24 minutes, starting in place of O'Neal for the fourth straight game.
For the final 2:44 of the first quarter, Doc Rivers had Pierce on the court with Davis, Marquis Daniels, Avery Bradley and Luke Harangody.
'We were playing with Semih, two rooks, and then Von went down at halftime," Garnett said. "So it's not enough to say [gritty]. I mean, 'P' said it before the game: This is going to me more mental than anything. I think everybody's playing, is giving everything they have. And in order for us to win these games, we're just going to have to grind it out.
"You know, until we get the guys back. We just got the news about Rondo; Shaq wasn't available today. So what're you going to do? You either quit, you put your clothes on and go home, but that ain't the way we do things around here. We work. So that, pretty much ' gutsy is an understatement.'
Playing on fumes for most of the first half after an emotional win in New York 24 hours earlier, the Celtics came alive late in the second quarter, going on a 10-2 run to take a 44-43 lead at halftime. They opened the second half with a 20-12 run to assume control of the game.
'I don't know if I'm surprised or not," Rivers said of his team's true grit. "I trust our guys. They just play well. They're executing well. I thought ' second half was terrific for us. I thought the first half, it was a grind. I mean, you could just feel it, emotionally, too, probably, coming off of last night's game. And then in the second half, you know, it was terrific ' we couldn't get Ray [Allen] going in the first half, and so we just changed the passer and made it Paul.
While Garnett was providing his typical fire and inspiration, Pierce turned back the clock to 2006 and ran the offense as a point-forward in the second half, while Robinson found his bearings.
"I knew I was going to have to be more of a play-maker," Pierce said. "Truthfully, I really didn't think like that. I just tried to feel the game out, and you know, try to give it what it needs. I didn't need to try to have a great scoring night because of the guys we had going. I mean, Ray got it going in the second half, Baby was consistent all game, and Kevin set the tone. So, I just let the chips fall where they may, and the guys, they stepped up. And so, it sort of, kind of, ended up that way. And it played out perfectly. And if that's what it's going to take, that's what it's going to take. You know, a lot of guys out. Guys are going to be asked to play multiple roles. And that's what we've got to do.'
"Paul basically became the point forward in the second half," Rivers added. "And it really worked out for us. I don't know if we stumbled on it if we kind of were forced to do it. But it was terrific. And Paul enjoyed it, which is even better. And then our defense kicked in too.'
And the defense will always be the true grit of this Celtics show.
|Irish Coffee: Top 5 Pop-A-Shot performances
|at 8:00 am ET
Wake up with the Celtics and your daily dose of Irish Coffee '¦
Five randomly selected people will get the chance to compete against Nate Robinson in Pop-A-Shot at Modell's Sporting Goods in Saugus on Tuesday at 5:15 p.m. Now, I have a million legendary Pop-A-Shot stories, so I'll spare you and give you just one:
While I was a student at Boston University, there was a guy at The Sports Depot challenging anybody and everybody to Pop-A-Shot. If he won, you had to buy him a shot. He beat a few people, and he took a few shots.
Once people caught onto the fact that he was a Pop-A-Shot Shark, he started betting everyone he could beat them left-handed. He beat a few more people, and he took a few more shots — but his game never wavered.
After a while, everybody pretty much gave up on trying to beat him, so he started giving everyone 20-point cushions. He got a few more takers, beat them and took more shots. Yet, he always put up 100 points a minute.
And he never lost.
Based on the shots consumed and point spread offered to his opponents, it was the greatest shooting display I've ever seen. Not to mention I saw the same guy doing the same thing a year later at the Beacon Hill Pub.
All I'm saying is, if this guy shows up in Saugus, Robinson has no chance. So, without further ado, I give you the top five Pop-A-Shot performances on YouTube …
1. THE WORLD RECORD: Jay Kletecka is right where I picture the Pop-A-Shot world record-holder to be: In his mother's basement. I do enjoy how he calmly drains 166 straight and has no reaction when he finally misses.
|Doc Rivers to Nate Robinson: Don't worry, you don't suck
|at 12:34 am ET
Doc Rivers could tell early on that Nate Robinson was having trouble getting into the flow of the game as he struggled with his passes and running the Celtics offense in the first half Thursday night against Atlanta.
There was a bullet pass from Robinson to Semih Erden in the low post that didn't quite make it there as Josh Smith stepped into the lane for the easy steal. There was a pass intended for Ray Allen that sailed out of bounds later in the first half.
How bad was it? Even when Nate was hustling his rear off to grab a loose ball headed toward the Hawks basket, he flipped to the lane – expecting Kevin Garnett to catch and slam. But instead, the pass was picked off by Mike Bibby, who fed Jordan Collins for an open three, which Collins hit to add salt to the wound.
All of that added up to seven points, only two assists and four turnovers in the first half for the man who will be filling in for Rajon Rondo over the next two weeks as Rondo heals a sprained left ankle. Rivers said he had to have a heart-to-heart with Robinson, telling him to keep his head up and remind him that he didn't think Robinson "sucked" just because he was having trouble finding his game.
"You know what I told Nate at halftime?" Rivers began. "I said, 'Nate, just a notice for you. You're the starting point guard now, and I'm going to give you a lot of instruction. It's not criticism.' You know, and Nate tends to ' he gets coaching at times, he hangs his head, and it was at a point in the second quarter I couldn't even give him a play because he thought I was going to tell him, 'Nate, you suck' or something."
Robinson seemed to take Rivers' words to heart.
"Just keep playing, play through adversity," Robinson said. "Just turn the page. I was being a little timid in first half. Second half, he told me to just be me. I think I did that."
Rivers knew full well that he might be dealing with a point guard that was getting overwhelmed.
"I don't know what he thought I was going to say," Rivers said. "And he was great. He even started laughing at halftime. I thought that relaxed him, and allowed him to play a little bit more. But with Rondo, you know, I'm so used to telling him what I need everybody ' 'Rondo, tell Paul this.' I was doing that with Nate and Nate was like, 'Enough! No more. I don't want'' and he finally got what I was doing. I guess he just has to get used to that.' Read the rest of this entry »

1993 Dodge D250 ProblemsEngine Knocking Noises From Carbon Buildup
Carbon buildup on the top of the piston is common. Over time this can lead to symptoms varying from light ticking to knocking noises. Performing a fuel injector cleaning procedure can often help the condition by removing some of the piston top deposits.
A condition may develop where the fuel gauge reads empty with too much fuel still in the fuel tank. Our technicians tell us that installing a new wire harness that provides a common ground for the fuel gauge and sending will correct this issue.
The powertrain control module (PCM) may fail resulting in a lack of AC cooling. The lack of cooling could be caused by evaporator freeze-up due to the AC compressor staying on continuously or conversely, not coming on at all. Proper diagnoses of the PCM should be performed before replacing it for this concern.

You'd be hard pushed to find fault here
489 Cua Dai Rd, Hoi An T: 0510 3916 499 F: 0150 3929 489
With its grand French colonial facade, classic wrought-iron balconies and art deco lines, you'd be right to think there was some serious design clout behind Hoi An's newest boutique offering, Vaia.
Vaia is the first venture into the hotel scene by super power tailor, Yaly's. A stone's throw from the old town on the better end of Cua Dai Road, you'd be hard pushed to find fault here, and rooms go for as little as $27, making this worth checking out if your budget stretches this far.
Vaia has upped the game for the budget to midrange market in Hoi An, with its vast Starck-inspired foyer and a clean layout that wouldn't look out of place in any fashion capital. Guest rooms are stylish, with furniture and trimmings veering toward the luxurious. What the standard rooms lack in space they make up for in clever design, with decked out ensuites separated by sliding glass doors that on first glance look more like art installations than anything with a purpose.
All the basics including air-con, TV, fridge and somewhere to hang your newly tailored clothes, are far from basic, windows are huge and double glazed to keep the noise of heavy traffic to a minimum – unusual for Vietnam. When we visited a neighbouring wedding had reached the ear-splitting karaoke stage, the ultimate test for any hotels sound proofing — Vaia passed.
Little difference lies between standard and deluxe — we were quoted $27-35 for a standard and $40 for the deluxe ($60 for the family suite). The extra for a deluxe only means more space, so unless you plan to hold a yoga class in your room save your money and go standard. The family room however is worth splashing out on — $60 gets you two bedrooms, one large double and one twin, connected by a galley bathroom. Unless you head to a resort, this sort of layout is rare among Hoi An hotels.
Breakfast is not included, but a wide range of options is right on Vaia's doorstep, including gourmet Casa Verde, one of the best breakfast spots in town. Vaia's hip hotel ambience is possibly a bit of a turnoff for the party crowd; there's no bar, so if that's your thing head north along Cua Dai and consider staying at Sunflower; for character, Phan Boi Chau Street's An Phu would be a better match.
It's early days for Vaia, but booking ahead would be wise, especially if you are in need of a bit of modern luxe after a few rough weeks on the road. We'd stay here in a flash. Staff were professional (as you would expect with Yaly) and nothing was a problem, including a walk-in discount which was offered before I asked. Prices do go up in the high season and we imagine as the hotel gains a following some little perks will dry up — but even at rack rates Vaia is more than worth it for its well thought out design, comfort, peace and proximity to town.

It looks, like nobody here uses CS4, Brian.
My CS6 files are saved correctly. Are you exporting 16bit or 8bit PSD? Have you tried both versions?
If I change the name and/or format type, will it go back as a version in Apeture?
PhotoShop should save in exactly that format, that Aperture is sending, and for PSD files the filename extension should be ".psd" in lower case letters, for TIFF files ".tiff". If Photoshop should be changein the extensions when using "Save", try "Save as" and make sure the extension is correct.
Could you use "tiff" format, or do you need the layers?
azartguy Jul 24, 2013 1:02 PM
in response to léonie
That's what I get for holding onto old software. In any case, I've tried everything I can think of: PSD 8 and 16-bit, TIFF 8 and 16-bit, JPEG.
The weird thing is sometimes everything works fine, than the next time Aperture gives the error message.
Instead of using the Photos > Edits with Photoshop CS4 ... I may just work around it with the RAW > Export (Version) As> PSD to the desktop, open in CS4 and then Save As back to the desktop, and then drag it back into the Aperture project. It's cumbersome but it works.
Thanks for responding,

If the problem is erratic, try to ensure, that not your Aperture library is to blame.
If you can edit without problems from a new Aperture library, just created for testing, then I'd run the Aperture library first aid tools - repairing permissions, repairing the database.
Repairing and Rebuilding Your Aperture Library: Aperture 3 User Manual
Another test would be, if CS4 is working well as an external editor, if you are testing using a different user acoount - bare bones - with only the default settings.
One problem - according to Adobe's site, CS 4 is not supported for the recents MacOS X versions, so you may have a problem with the sandboxing in Mt. Lion. http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/policy-pricing/system-requirements-photoshop. html

Do any of you ladies with an SCH also have a cyst on your ovary? I just found out yesterday that I have something called a Corpus Luteum Cyst in addition to the SCH. My Dr. didn't tell me about this, I picked up a copy of my records from the hospital where I had some tests done, and it was in the report. I have read a lot about this online on various websites and it seems like most of the time they arent't problematic, but I also read that they tend to shrink or go away around 10-12 weeks. I was 10 weeks 5 days when it was detected and it was not on my previous u/s at 8 weeks. I have had cramping throughout the pregnancy and it is worse after sex. My Dr. said that the cramping was normal, but I put myself on pelvic rest and I am wondering now if the cramping could have had something to do with the cyst. Even if my Dr. didn't think it was a big deal, I should have been notified that I have a cyst.
SCH and cyst on ovary
Comments (6)
Yeah, I had an ovarian cyst. It was not a luteal cyst (it was on the opposite ovary that I had ovulated from) but was 7cm. I did not feel any cramping or pain with mine and the u/s tech and Dr were both very surprised that it was not causing any discomfort--they said it should be very painful. They were NOT concerned with the cyst affecting the baby though, more concerned of my "discomfort".
What we think happened is mine ruptured with a "pop" instead of a "slow leak" and the pain (this part was definitely very painful) aggravated the uterus/SCH that lead to my big bleed because when we did the u/s at the ER, there was no more ovarian cyst, but we found the SCH.
I don't know if a luteal cyst is the same though. You are suppose to have a corpus luteum, which I think of as a sort of normal "appropriate cyst" for a certain amount of time (secretes progesterone to maintain the pregnancy), and sometimes it just takes a little longer to go away. Maybe that is why your doctor didn't seem concerned? Best thing to do is probably call and have them interpret the results of your tests for you. :) Good luck!
Yes, I've had a corpus luteum cyst with all three pregnancies, and always been told it's a normal part of early pregnancy. It develops on the ovary you ovulated from and helps excrete progesterone. They just note it's there on the ultrasound report so they can make sure it shrinks or goes away like it's supposed to if you get an anatomy scan.
I still had mine at 13 weeks 3 days and the tech told me it was on the report but not to worry about it.
A corpus luteum cyst is the follicle your egg developed in. When the egg is released the sac can re-fill with fluid and hang around for a bit, but it happens in every cycle. Perfectly normal. Nothing to worry about at all. It probably was there in the earlier ultrasound, they just didn't note it because it's perfectly normal.

Weighted Least Squares
Thu Apr 11, 2013 3:23 am
For a project I'm doing I need to do weighted LS (a lot of them). My first try was to implement the direct straitforwards calculation :
A.X=Y with the weights contained in a diagonal matrix W
a weighted least squares solution is x=inv(A'*W*A)*A'*W*Y (in matlab notations : A' <=> transpose of A / inv(X) <=> inverse of X)
I read that this wasn't a robbust way to do it because of rounding errors, so I wondered If you had any idea of a better way to do this calculation ?
Here is the code I'm using :
I'd really appreciate your opinion on this.
Re: Weighted Least Squares
Thu Apr 11, 2013 6:20 am
You can form the problem:
W * A * x = W * b
and then do a LS solve using either a QR or SVD, e.g.:
x = (W*A).householderQr().solve(W*b);

If I'm not incorrect
is the solution to the weighted LS problem
b_hat=argmin_b (Ax-b)'W(Ax-b) .
(Ax-b)'W(Ax-b) = (W^(1/2)*(Ax-b))'*(W^(1/2)(Ax-b)) = ||W^(1/2)*(Ax-b)||_2 = ||W^(1/2)*Ax - W^(1/2)b||_2
Thus the standard way of transforming the problem into a non-weighted LS problem is to multiply A and b with W^(1/2) (i.e. the square root of W,) and not with W itself.
For more info see: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Least_squa ... st_squares
Multiplying by W thus seems to in effect applying the square of the weights? Are you sure this is not what happens in the suggested solution.
Also, from a efficiency perspective, it seems wasteful to use a full dense matrix to represent the diagonal weight matrix. I haven't used it myself, but DiagonalMatrix seems promising http://eigen.tuxfamily.org/dox/classEigen_1_1DiagonalMatrix.html.

My bra sizes have changed drastically since my first pregnancy. I wen't from a large B to a small C with my first one within the 6 weeks I was pregnant, Then lost the baby due to the RH factor. From what I umderstand my negative blood mixed with the baby somehow and killed it off as if it was a forgein body before I could get the Rhogam (spelling is wrong I'm sure) shot. My pregnancy after that I went from a small C to a large D. After I had my child between then and this pregnancy started I went from large D to large DD, I guess I wasn't done growing? Within the past 6 - 6 1/2 weeks I have gone from DD-DDD (a FULL DDD). I have NO CLUE what comes next, Any ideas ladies? Right now I am living off of sports bras (Have to wear three to make it not hurt when I walk). Any information on the next size(s) up and where you order them from would be appreciated. Does anyone else have this problem? I went from a small B to a full DDD in 5 years... My body should have been done growing (excluding being pregnant now) for a long time now.
I am in DDD bras, What are the next sizes up?
DDD is also referred to as F, so that means your next size up is G....

I was in an E when pregnant with/nursing my daughter. And I have a pregnant friend who is in a G.
I have graced the likes of a G cup myself, and I know that they go up to I, J, K and beyond. You'll probably be best off going to a specialty store in your area or shopping online (my preference). Good luck, and believe me, I feel for you!

thanks everyone!
holleycek - i hit the jackpot when i needed DDDs i bought some off a lady who had ordered them then couldn't fit into them when they arrived because they had gone down i spent $50 and recieved 15 bras i believe i was so excited to have some that fit as for specialty stores they don't have any in the immediate area and due to not being able to sleep and when i can i sleep for long periods of time and wake up feeling unrested i don't want to drive long distances it's not fair to others or to my child and bun;) on the way for me to drive while tired so online it is
Amazon.com has a pretty good selection of maternity bras in extended sizes.
I'm currently a DD on one side and a DDD on the other. Now that makes bra shopping fun...
ERFing Gluten-Free Sheep-Farming CPST Mom to 2 adult boys, 2 little daughters (Aug '10, Dec '14)
My lord I thought my 34DD's were huge. I now probably need a 36F because my bras are TIGHT! Lol I can't even imagine your pain!!
When I was 18 I was a D. I then got pregnant with my first and went to a DD. A year or two after pregnancy I went down to a C. I had another baby 5 years after the first, and my bra size didn't change at all. My second baby is now 23months old and I am pregnant with the third. I wear a B cup now! So, if you ladies are looking for anywhere to send your extra amount of boobs please feel free to send them my way, because I seem to be losing mine!! LOL. Good luck finding bra's ladies, sorry I wasn't any help!!
*EDD(8/12/10) We're having a boy!!
brigala - my sister has that problem too she would buy the bra to fit the smaller side and they didn't look any diff til she took the bra off
nikki - lol yeah def go look for some bigger ones i was wearing Ds and had one DD bra when i was growing into a DDD (only had the DD because I couldn't find a D in that specific color, it turned out to be a life saver to have it
heather - if i could i would, lol. age 10 A 12 B age 16 C age 18 D age 20 DD and now at 21 i am a DDD can't even imagine how big they will get this pregnancy thanks for the luck i will need it
I'm in a 34GG and it's nearly impossible to find bras that fit without hitting the internet. Try www.bravissimo.com. They're pricey, but it beats the hell out of an ill-fitting bra. I can't tell you how much time I spent with my boobs coming out the top of my bra, lol. The dreaded QUAD BOOB.
thank you for the information even my DDD bras aren't very supportive i tend to wear three sports bras at once but it usually makes me look like i have a uniboob lol so i only wear them at home and deal with the reg bras when i go out

A question. I purchased the game vie a Groupees bundle a few months ago. Will I also recieve a Steam key in any way? I don't think so but asking is free. :D
Bad customer service, with luck, in the next few months, the steam key is available
Same. I read somewhere that it wa under way but I guess they're in some **** because of all those keys.
So, wait and see.
I'd like to know too :D
you have the game, play it! stop being cheap losers! if you want the game in both places BUY IT IN BOTH PLACES! try thinking of someone besides yourselves for once in your (hopefully) short and meaningless lives, like developers who need to feed themselves and their families by SELLING games. you ********* paying a few cents for 3 copies of the game does NOT count as support!
It's not that I'm being cheap -- it's trying to keep this game in mind.
Like most people who buy bundles, I have dozens of games. Most of them are for Steam. That means that when I feel like playing a game, I open up Steam, look at my library, and pick one. Most of the time, I forget all about the games that I have for Desura, meaning that gems like this one just get ignored.
Gratz on getting unfucked by Gaben and making it through to STEAM. My suggestion would be to only give STEAM keys to people who purchased the game outright and not through a bundle and maybe not even then.
Is Adult Swim going to push your game now or in the future or did something happen with that?
totally, the whole thing with bundles giving out steam AND desura keys needs to stop.
Just a quick question for the devs. Are there going to be any Steam keys supplied for those who have purchased the Desura version of the game? I noticed it's just become available there.
I would like to know also. Thanks
According to the dev tweets they have sent the keys out and they are on their way. IGS has them and desura + humble have to destribute them still.
this game doesnt work for some reason, right as i open it it just gives me the error message (im in a mac btw) i didnt have any issues with this game until 1.6, anyone know if this can be solved
I want to know if anyone plays this on Mac with a Dualshock 3 controller?
I am on Ubuntu 13.04 and when I click "Start" in the main menu, the game just hangs for two minutes on a loading screen, then is zoomed in to like 200%. I would like either a fix or a refund, please.
I don't know how stable it is on MAC but I'm sure it'll get fixed. Besides, a refund? For a 10 dollar game? I've bought sandwiches for that price that tasted so horrible that I had to throw it out, but I didn't ask for a refund. All I'm saying is, don't you think you have those dollars to spare? Instead of having to go through all this hassle just to get something that supposedly could be a bad sandwich?
Highest Rated (6 agree) 10/10
I'm loving the new update. It makes it feel like a true roguelike since the bosses change more.
Mar 3 2013 by r33b0k1984
Lowest Rated (4 agree) 1/10
Horrible game by the most cowardly and pathetic devs I've ever seen. Won't even stay around the forums on Steam to answer questions because of the overwhelming number of people who know these developers are shit. These guys can't face criticism, they even said themselves that they can't handle being around forums that they're obliged to answer questions in because "waaah someone might make fun of us" Made by whiny children, terrible game, it's been out for several days now and is already trailing…

- 11 of 14 SCoE subordinate schools also named Institutes of Excellence
FORT LEE, Va. (Feb. 17, 2010) - The Sustainment Center of Excellence (SCoE) was awarded the First TRADOC Center of Excellence, Institution of Excellence, by Lt. Gen. David P. Valcourt, Training and Doctrine Command deputy commanding general, in a ceremony here yesterday. It is TRADOC's first Institution of Excellence award for one of its Centers of Excellence.
Accepting the award was Maj. Gen. James E. Chambers, commanding general, Combined Arms Support Command/ SCoE; Linda Legier and Chris Sutton, director and deputy director, CASCOM/ SCoE Quality Assurance; and Bill Moore, deputy to the CASCOM/ SCoE commanding general.
"Their success is attributable to the Sustainment Center of Excellence command support for the Quality Assurance Program and the hard work of Sustainment Center of Excellence and Soldier Support Institute Quality Assurance Offices, as well as the quality-assurance elements at each subordinate school," said Valcourt.
The Institute of Excellence award was given at the conclusion of the "Year of Accreditation," which began in September 2008 and ended in January 2010.
With an annual training load of more than 50,000 Soldiers, Quality Assurance Offices were established to function as the "eyes and ears of the commander" to help the commander ensure the development and implementation of current relevant, efficient and effective doctrine, training, professional military education and leader development to meet unit, Soldier, Army civilian leader competency needs across the Army.
To earn the Institute of Excellence award, the organization had to excel in three areas of evaluation: internal evaluation, external evaluation and accreditation.
During internal evaluation, quality-assurance teams measured the effectiveness of the course curriculum, instructors and integration of lessons into broader strategy and doctrine. Internal evaluations also assessed relevance, currency, value, content validity, efficiency and effectiveness.
External evaluations turned to subject-matter experts, automation tools, data-collection instruments and lessons-learned to provide a different dimension of feedback. Data is gathered through graduate surveys, end-of-course critiques and combat training centers, among other sources, to determine the effectiveness of sustainment functions.
Accreditation occurs in a three-year cycle where an institution is certified by TRADOC because it assures the command that the training institution meets accepted standards and higher headquarters policy and guidance; addresses the quality of graduates; and highlights concerns of the center/school.
The SCoE received an Institution of Excellence rating among the doctrine, organization, training, materiel, leadership, personnel and facilities domains. Eleven of the SCoE's 14 subordinate organizations also achieved the Institute of Excellence rating.
"Any organization is only as good as its leader," Valcourt said. "SCoE's quality assurance is known for its tight family and spirit of cooperation, and [its] support to each other and to supported organizations."

DH and I tried to conceive this month.Ā Last week (Sn. 5/15-Sat 5/21) was my fertile time.
I am noticing a few things.
- Peeing more often (already!?)
- Pee smells stronger - like vitamins (even though I wasn't really taking any)
- My sniffer is super sensitive.Ā This morning I smelled gas & at work it smelled like someone was painting their toe nails, but it was one of our massage therapists filling containers with a buff they use for body wraps... I am around that smell constantly and it never bothered me before.
- I am eating like crazy.Ā All of a sudden went from not too hungry to pigging out on everything and not being satisfied.
WHAT IS THE DEAL!?Ā Could it be this early?!Ā Or am I building it up in my head!?Ā
HELP!!Ā Also... when can I test!?

A prosecutor is opposing former Ohio State football star Maurice Clarett's request for early release from prison.
Franklin County Prosecutor Ron O'Brien says Clarett hasn't made a strong case that he should be released so early.
He was sentenced in September 2006 to serve at least 3½ years for a holdup outside a Columbus bar and a separate highway chase that ended with police finding loaded guns in his SUV.
Clarett has asked the Ohio Parole Board for a pardon, reprieve or commutation of his sentence.
His attorney says Clarett has an opportunity to play NFL, arena or Canadian professional football if he's released within a few months.
Clarett led the Buckeyes as a tailback to the 2002 national championship.
