As the birthplace of modern improv, Chicago boasts a theater scene teeming with off-the-cuff comedy troupes. Laugh at the best of them with this weeklong itinerary of long-standing local improv shows. MONDAY | The Second City Improv All-Stars at UP Comedy Club It makes sense to start the week out at Second City, Chicago's comedy mecca. Although most of Second City's shows feature Saturday Night Live–style sketch comedy, Monday nights go off-script for 60 minutes of original goofs from the company's top players. (230 W. North Ave.; Mondays at 8 p.m.; $17) TUESDAY | Tuesday Night Thing (TNT) at the Annoyance Theatre Venerable improv gurus TJ Jagodowski and Noah Gregoropoulos each lead their own long-form team during this late-night event at the Annoyance Theatre. Grab a drink from the bar and settle in for two 30-minute performances. (851 W, Belmont Ave.; Tuesdays at 9:30 p.m.; $8) WEDNESDAY | TJ & Dave at iO Can't get enough TJ? Catch him with with his comedic other half, Dave Pasquesi, in their critically acclaimed long-form show TJ & Dave. The duo will be christening their very own stage, The Mission Theater, at iO's newly opened space starting August 13. (1501 N. Kingsbury St.; Wednesdays at 10:30 p.m.; $10) THURSDAY | ComedySportz Although the team at ComedySportz Theatre keeps the jokes rated PG for their all-ages audience, there are still plenty of laughs to be had. The group keeps things moving with fast-paced improv games, enacting short scenes based on audience suggestions. (929 W. Belmont Ave.; Thursdays at 8 p.m.; $22) FRIDAY | Baby Wants Candy at the Apollo Theater To date, Baby Wants Candy has produced more than 1,700 original musicals. The players create a new show during each performance based on a title shouted out from the audience. In addition to shows at the Apollo Theater, the crew and their live band also perform at the Annoyance Theatre. (2540 N. Lincoln Ave.; Fridays at 10:30 p.m.; $20) SATURDAY | Comedy Showcase with Rainbow Deli at Chemically Imbalanced Comedy This Saturday showcase is three shows in one. Two of CIC's house teams open for the Rainbow Deli crew, delivering long-form performances in three distinct improv styles at an intimate theater with a new full bar. (1422 W. Irving Park Rd.; Saturdays at 10:30 p.m.; $10) SUNDAY | Big Yellow Bus at The Playground Theater Big Yellow Bus has been a mainstay at The Playground Theater for 10 years, but the show is always fresh. The rotating cast of players meet only once before performing a long-form show. This ever-changing mix of personalities, combined with an audience chugging BYOB drinks, makes for an evening of unpredictable hilarity. (3209 N. Halsted St.; Sundays at 9:15 p.m.; tickets are pay-what-you-can) Check Groupon first for more Chicago theater, or take to the stage yourself with acting classes in Chicago.

Five Kid-Friendly Bands That Aren't Kids' Bands at Lollapalooza
Every year, music-festival juggernaut Lollapalooza caters to the parental crowd with Kidzapalooza, a stage dedicated solely to acts appropriate for children. But with no disrespect to School of Rock or the pop-punk whimsy of bands like Play Date, there are plenty of other artists at Lolla that appeal to all ages without being specifically geared toward kids. Here are five of our favorites. J. Roddy Walston & The Business Friday at 2:45 p.m. to 3:45 p.m. | Bud Light Stage If you say his name fast enough, it sounds like J. "Rowdy" Walston, a moniker that would fit this Tennessee rocker to a T. No, you won't be able to decipher his lyrics, and neither will your children. What will make sense to all ages, however, is the band's yowling brand of Southern (with a capital "S") rock, which combines sloppy soloing, backwoods drumming, and a barroom piano to appeal to the reptile in all of us. Lorde Friday at 6:45 p.m. to 7:45 p.m. | Bud Light Stage Pretty much everyone has heard Lorde by this point, so most Lolla attendees have probably made up their minds on whether or not they want to see the teenaged Kiwi. But if you're a parent who's still on the fence, we highly recommend taking your little one to her set. Even if her complex observations about youth go over younger kids' heads, her production definitely won't. The beats are danceable, infused with a touch of full-bodied hip-hop, and most importantly, chock-full of hooks that transcend generation. Jungle Saturday at 12:45 p.m. to 1:30 p.m. | Samsung Galaxy Stage Little is known about this London R & B by way of disco act, and that's part of the fun—past shows have been shrouded in a fog thick enough to obscure the performers' faces. Such anonymity will be difficult to achieve under Lolla's midday August sun, which should leave Jungle's Bee Gees–esque grooves out in the open. We doubt they'll have the same elaborate, stone-faced choreography featured so prominently in their videos, but parents will dig the throwback sound while kids will most certainly be moved to dance. GROUPLOVE Saturday at 4:45 p.m. to 5:45 p.m. | Bud Light Stage In terms of sheer fashion sense, GROUPLOVE might be the biggest spectacle at Lolla. It's not exactly an organized spectacle—skeleton bodysuits tend to clash with sequins, fedoras, and splatters of dayglo paint—but since when does rock 'n' roll have to be organized? It's hard not to get sucked into the playful chaos, especially when the band keeps the music so catchy. Like co-lead singer Hannah Hooper, you and your kid might even be moved to headbang (not too hard, mind you) and forget that this is indie pop, not heavy metal. The Avett Brothers Sunday at 6 p.m. to 7:15 p.m. | Samsung Galaxy Stage Most of The Avett Brothers are fathers themselves, resulting in some of the best songs about parenthood this side of Ben Folds's "Still Fighting It." The band's introspective lyrics are sure to resonate with anyone raising kids, if not with the kids themselves. Luckily, the Avetts also know how to keep things fun for younger audiences. It's not uncommon for them to play out in the crowd, incorporate breakneck bluegrass tempos, or even cover Beyoncé. Photo courtesy of Republic Records Lollapalooza takes over Grant Park August 1–3. Regular and VIP passes are sold out, but you can still get Platinum and VIP packages online. Want to explore more music in the Windy City? Read our guide to the summer's best outdoor music.

Chicago Comics' Favorite Non-Marvel Superheroes
The Avengers. Captain America. X-Men. The Amazing Spider-Man. Marvel Comics has been dominating the box office with a slew of summer blockbusters in recent years. So, in the name of anyone feeling burned out on Marvel, we asked Eric Thornton, chief executive operating officer of Chicago Comics, to pick his favorite non-Marvel superheroes.RobotmanPublisher: DC ComicsPowers: Superhuman strength and speed, flight, shape-shiftingBrief history: After he was severely injured in a car accident, Cliff Steele's brain was inserted into a robotic body. He uses his powers for good as one of the founding members of weirdo superhero team the Doom Patrol.What makes him cool: "He's just one of the characters that I've always loved," Eric said. "In the DC Universe, everyone's so clean-cut, and he's just so cranky." He also loves that the character frequently "deals with existential problems" due to being a man in a robot's body.Brainiac 5Publisher: DC ComicsPower: 12th-level intellectBrief history: An alien from the planet Colu, Brainiac 5 is a descendant of Brainiac, one of Superman's original and most deadly enemies, who chose to atone for his ancestor's crimes by fighting with the Legion of Super-Heroes.What makes him cool: Unlike some of his more classically good companions, Brainiac 5 is "just this kinda crazy, supersmart asshole who thinks he's better than everyone else." But he's not without his charms. "He's got a crush on Supergirl … which is adorable."Dick GraysonPublisher: DC ComicsPowers (or, more appropriately, abilities): peak athlete, master martial artist, acrobat, detectiveBrief history: Most people know Grayson as Batman's original Robin, but what they might not know is that little Dick grew up to become Nightwing and even took over the cowl of the Dark Knight himself for a time.What makes him cool: For Eric, Grayson stands out among other heroes for his maturity. "He's just gone through so many iterations—he's one of the few characters to have really evolved. They've actually allowed him to grow up."The TickPublisher: New England Comics PressPowers: superhuman strength and agility, "drama power" (the power to become stronger as situations become more dramatic)Brief history: The Tick has little to no memory of his past and is known for his overzealous sense of duty, bizarre inspirational speeches, and dim, childlike nature.What makes him cool: "There was a short-lived show on Fox in the late '90s, but everyone should know the Tick! He's hilarious!" Eric said. And with a battle-cry of "Spoon!" and an odd host of companions such as Batmanuel, Sewer Urchin, and, of course, his moth-suited sidekick Arthur, who's to argue?Animal ManPublisher: DC ComicsPower: the ability to harness the power of any animal that has ever existedBrief history: Caught in the blast of an alien spacecraft, Buddy Baker gains his phenomenal powers and uses them to fight crime with the Justice League.What makes him cool: "He's a guy who used to be kind of a joke of a character for like 30 years until Grant Morrison reinvented him," Eric noted. "He's a unique superhero with these crazy, dumb powers."All of these characters can be found at Chicago Comics (3244 N. Clark St.) or anywhere else comics are sold. Check Groupon for great deals on movies in Chicago.Read More

text: I just sold my 08' BMW Adventure and will be buying a new 990 adventure in the next month. So here is my dilemma. I'm 5'10", 220, like long rides on a rock laden beach?? lol. In all seriousness, I know these bikes are tall. I wear Forma Adventure boots which are not only awesome but they add about 2 inches to my inseam. I am used to tall bikes, I also have a ktm 450, Yamaha WR450 and I've rode competitively up to a few years ago when my wife said it was time to quit the Hare Scrambles, so I'm confident off-road. I'm leaning towards the Adventure R but I would like to sit back and listen to anybody who is willing to chime in either for or against. Thank you for your time to respond and I look forward to joining the big bore KTM boys.

Can We Move Past Post-Race, Already?
If you follow the American Composers Orchestra and you stay on top of your composer opportunities, you might have noticed ACO's most recent Earshot post on Facebook: readings for emerging African-American composers. I was surprised to see some comments that weren't so positive–comments that reflect some dangerous thinking.

Seems inexplicable but the little city of Fife, best known as a repository for a dozen or more car dealerships scattered along Interstate 5, is home to two of the worst bosses in America. That's right, Fife, gateway to Tacoma, population 9,173, has managed to land a couple of notorious spots on eBossWatch's third annual top 100 list of the nation's most, shall we say, difficult bosses.
The other Fife cop is Douglas Burris (No. 80 on the list) who failed to report a sexual harassment complaint that was reported to him. According to the complaint, a female police officer said another Fife police employee allegedly showed her pornographic images on his cellphone and pressured her into sexual acts. Burris is still on the job.
Fife police commander Tim Floyd declined comment today on the worst boss list, and referred out call to Andrea Edwards in the city manager's office. She could not be reached for comment.
Also making the list, at No. 53, is Edmond's Mayor Mike Cooper, who, according to complaints, allegedly created a hostile work environment.
Topping the charts were movie producer Jon Peters, the Rev. Jesse Jackson and Tucson City Councilman Ted Abrams, all with charges of sexual harassment.
Herman Cain was listed at No. 35. We think you may able to guess the reason.
"We continue to be shocked and outraged by the egregious harassment and discrimination that happens in far too many American workplaces," said Asher Adelman, founder of the four-year old site that enables people to anonymously rate their bosses and evaluate potential employers.

With long blond hair and painted red nails, beautiful Georgette Ecklington didn't look like a mechanic. But the latest hire at Bob and Bart's Auto Repair could recognize a faulty coil in no time¿and fix it just as fast.
Only problem was that Bob Delanio was attracted to his new employee. Luckily, he knew business and pleasure didn't mix. Besides, after meeting her wealthy, controlling father, Bob realized he and Georgette came from opposite worlds.
It was up to Georgette to show her handsome boss a downtown man should take a risk on an uptown girl....

Nebraska must be sharper with 3 of next 4 on road
Updated: September 30, 2012, 12:31 PM ETAssociated Press
LINCOLN, Neb. -- As much fun as Nebraska had coming from behind to beat two-time defending Big Ten champion Wisconsin in front of a charged-up home crowd, the Cornhuskers realize they need to clean up their act with three of their next four games on the road.
Before the No. 21 Huskers rallied to win 30-27, they spotted the Badgers a 14-point lead eight minutes into the game and were down by 17 in the third quarter. Two fumbles and a roughing-the-kicker penalty led to Wisconsin touchdowns.

Golf Tips: A little fun with Independence Day on the course
By: Shawn Kelly
If you?re a golfer, I hope you get a bang out of this week?s cryptogram created with golf terms around the phrase Independence Day, July 4th to acknowledge and celebrate our national birthday on Wednesday. There are a few tips, some opinions and a modest attempt at humor. It?s an oldie, but a goodie so please enjoy! I love this game! Never give up. You never know, your next shot might just drop into the hole. Driver, definitely the longest club in the bag. Etiquette is an important part of respecting the game of golf. Press! If you?re a betting person you?ll understand. Execute your pre-shot routine before every shot. Noonan ? Do you remember Danny from Caddy Shack? Don?t forget to repair your ball marks and fix your divots. Expect some shots to not finish where you think they should. Nine holes can be played on the front or on the back, when you don?t have time for a full18. Chipping is easier if you setup with the ball off your back foot. Everyone can enjoy some aspect of golf, from playing to watching. It?s exciting! Dad introduced me to this great game. Appreciate your freedoms and those who sacrificed to give them to us. Yell FORE! If you it an errant shot toward other players. Junior golf programs are great summer activities for kids. Understand the rules of golf; they are there to help, not to hurt. Lakes are pretty to look at but they eat golf balls, so aim away from them. You?ll hit the ball farther and straighter with a balanced grip on the club. 4th putt. You?ll want to avoid this one! I hope you?ve enjoyed this little holiday-o-gram and have a safe Independence Day. Hopefully you?ll set off some spectacular golf score fireworks with your holiday celebration! Junior camps There?s a three-day junior camp July 24-29; from 9 a.m .to noon. Thursday from :30 to 10 a.m. will be a play day for ages 8 to 17 ? no clubs or experience needed. Fundamentals of the swing, short game and putting will be covered. There?ll be games and skills contests intended to enrich all attendees? experience. The cost is $60 per junior golfer. To sign up, call the golf shop at (530) 888-7888.

Monday's Tech Winners & Losers
(EMBT) were among technology's losers Monday, sinking 18% after the software company terminated an agreement to be acquired. Embarcadero and EMBT Holding, an affiliate of investment firm Thoma Cressey Equity Partners, mutually agreed to scuttle the deal, Embarcadero said. The buyout was valued at $234 million, or $8.38 a share in cash. In addition to the merger termination, Embarcadero said it would need to restate its historical financial statements because it backdated stock options. The company's shares were trading down $1.28 to $5.69.SanDisk (SNDK - Get Report) rose 4% after the maker of flash memory cards announced a $300 million stock buyback plan. The company plans to buy the shares over a two-year period. "SanDisk has adopted this repurchase program in order to opportunistically reduce the level of stockholder dilution caused by the issuance of employee equity incentive awards," the company said. "The size of this share repurchase program is less than the amount of cash generated from equity incentive exercises and related tax benefits over the past two years." Shares were trading at $44.04, up $1.53. Shares of American Superconductor (AMSC - Get Report) slid 11% after the maker of electronic converters warned that third-quarter results would be well below expectations. For the December quarter, the company sees a loss of $9 million to $11 million, or 28 cents to 33 cents a share. Analysts polled by Thomson First Call project a loss of 19 cents a share. American Superconductor predicts revenue of about $9 million, below Wall Street's forecast of $12.4 million. The company attributed the weak outlook to a delay in receiving Department of Energy funding for a power grid project and a delay in a motor delivery to the Navy. Shares of American Superconductor were down $1.22 to $9.63.Shares of Embarcadero Technologies

I'm still alive!Journal Entry: Fri Jan 24, 2014, 6:49 PM
Hey everyone! I feel so bad that I haven't been on here for so long, I haven't uploaded any artwork, haven't uploaded any new Annyseed, and still haven't got back to everyone's messages. Baby Paisley and the new career have been a lot of work, on top of that- my computer got a virus and for some reason I can't use dreamweaver to make new webpages anymore. I'm going to have to update the website using my wife's computer once I get into the swing of things again.
Good news is, I'm slowly working on finishing Annyseed, and another great artist has started working on the pencils for Annyseed 2, so I plan on bringing it all back in a big way. Right now my new business is starting to build up money to really get Mirrorwood comics moving properly, so things are definitely moving forward in a very positive way, despite it looking like everything is on hold. It's all about building and creation right now, and the return of the comics will follow, I promise! I wish I could post this message on my website, but right now, I can't edit it. :S
There, really needed to get that off my chest...
Take care everyone, hope to get back to you all real soon!
I have set up a pot for the Annyseed sequel, - Hive of the Serpent King. Here -www.colourofivy.com/annyseed_w… Big thanks to those that have been donating
Funds will go towards hiring a new artist to take over from me when the second story begins, but I will continue to write and colour them.
As always, If you'd like to see Annyseed hold her own in the vast sea of webcomics. I would be extremely grateful for your vote! please follow the link below. You can vote up to 7 times a week, I do believe.
Also, If you're a regular on the webcomic list site, feel free to add Anny to your faves, the site will keep you up to date with the latest page releases.
Here's the Annyseed fanart, thanks guys!

I'm still alive! by MirrorwoodComicsWatch
You were missed.
But let it never be said that your reasons for being gone, were bad.
(AKA: a job and a kid)
I'm even less then that
That's a good thing.
I love Macromedia's stuff!
Out of curiosity, which version do you use?
As for my own life, I've been trying (and failing) to get a job, I got married, and I'm adapting to a whole new world. (Okay, so it's the same world, same town even, but I'm in an apartment when I've never lived in an apartment before. Plus I'm a wife. So weiiiiiird.)
Glad to hear Baby Paisley is doing well! ^^
Getting bigger is good.
Your artwork is coming along nicely.
And another redo?
Are you STILL not satisfied with your own hard work ??
As they say, an artist is his own worst critic V_V
that one day you can lean back, close your book of a completed AnnySeed,
and say: "I'm done, it's finally perfect"
I kinda thought you would say something like that.

In what probably isn't the best week for actor Tom Cruise, Universal does a have a birthday gift for the now-divorcing 50 year old — the first trailer for the upcoming adaptation of Jack Reacher, where Cruise stars as the title character, an ex-Military Police turned drifter who lives off the grid.
Based on the popular character created by author Lee Child, Jack Reacher was adapted from the novel One Shot, the ninth in the series (the 17th volume is due this fall). Jack Reacher follows the character as he investigates the deaths of five individuals whom were all killed by a lone sniper. Joined by defense attorney Helen Rodin (Rosamund Pike), Reacher attempts to bring the real culprits to justice after an innocent man is charged with the murders. None of that is particularly present in the trailer, which is more interested in positing Reacher as the ultimate, rule-breaking bad-ass. While many may have trouble seeing Cruise in that light, we'll note that he played a fairly convincing villain in 2004's Collateral.
Written and directed by Christopher McQuarrie (The Way of the Gun), Jack Reacher co-stars Robert Duvall (Days of Thunder), Richard Jenkins (Let Me In) and David Oyelowo (Rise of the Planet of the Apes).

Dr. Peter Stone in the Department of Computer Sciences
has won four league competitions at international robot soccer
challenges, and competes again this week.
Devices driven by artificial
intelligence (AI) are slowly becoming part of the fabric of life.
But these gadgets seem simple-minded
compared to the ones Peter Stone envisions. The assistant professor
of computer sciences at The University of Texas at Austin is laying
the groundwork for a not-too-distant future populated by adaptable
AI devices that not only can improve their interactions with objects
around them, but affect each other's actions as well.
"It's not out of the question that in 20 years we'll
be seeing cars that drive themselves," Stone says, noting
that the cars' abilities to communicate with each other would
permit rapid, accident-free travel.
"Creating those cars is a multiagent systems problem," he
says. "It's about learning how to develop independently
controlled cars that will drive themselves by coordinating around
streets, which will be a limited resource. That's at the
core of all the research problems I look at."
His chosen path
to those advances may seem unusual at first. It is paved in forest
green, with the limited resource a bright orange
ball. Stone and students taking his computer science course at
the College of Natural Sciences are preparing a team of eight robots
to compete this week at an international robot soccer competition
in Padua, Italy.
An avid soccer player since childhood, Stone was
on the varsity team at the University of Chicago, and plays on
a top-notch amateur
team in Austin. Stone became interested in using the sport to bring
about advances in AI soon after beginning graduate school at Carnegie
Mellon University in Pittsburgh. He saw a one-on-one robot soccer
demonstration at an AI meeting in 1993 and was struck by the robots' simplicity.
"I immediately thought, 'Soccer is not about one robot
on each team—it's about multiple robots cooperating
and working against the other team,' " Stone says.
With his adviser's approval, Stone began the AI project that
following year.
Using miniature, Rubix cube-sized robots he helped
design, he won the small-sized robot league at the first international
in 1997. He also reached the semifinals that year in the computer
simulation league, in which on-screen players used an AI-based
computer program of previously developed strategies to respond
to patterns of soccer play.
That following year, Stone won both
these international RoboCup leagues. And in 1999, he posted a shut-out
during eight games in
the simulator competition, winning 110-0.
"Our team became one of the ones that people started building
off of, because we made a lot of our source code available," he
Stone described how he created the 1999 simulation team in
his book "Layered Learning in Multiagent Systems: A Winning
Approach to Robotic Soccer." He also helped edit a similar
book on the 2000 RoboCup competition, but notes that "the
competitions are a good motivating tool, but not the be-all and
end-all of it."
his research bent, it's not surprising that the
energetic scientist decided to go back to the AI drawing board
after coming to Austin and the university's Department of
Computer Sciences in fall 2002. Stone's effort focuses on
Aibo (I-Bo) robots from Sony that have well-defined hardware, permitting
him and his students to focus entirely on computer programming.
They reworked the dog-sized robots' code from scratch in
preparation for the first American RoboCup competition, held in
May, and are fine-tuning it further for the Italian competition,
expected to draw tens of thousands of spectators from July 2-11.
With only 14 weeks to prepare for the warm-up competition, Stone
and 19 graduate students and an undergraduate worked doggedly to
improve the robots' abilities by breaking into groups. One,
led by graduate student Mohan Sridharan, focused on teaching the
robots, known as the UT Austin Villa team, to distinguish the pattern
of numbers on their video screens representing the pastel colors
of the goals, the green of their 2.1-meter by 4.5-meter playing
field, the colorful outfits of teammates and other objects. [Play

group worked to improve the 'bots' jerky walks,
and another to guide them through the steps of scoring a goal:
find the ball, walk to the ball, find the goal, square up the ball
with the goal, re-check that everything's aligned and then
shoot with a one-legged lunging kick or by popping front legs back
together. The reverse of the latter, front power kick was taught
to a "goalie" to block a ball.
In addition, the Aibos
were taught to play without human input based on instructions built
into their code before the games. For
example, the "Dibs" program allowed an Austin Villa
robot close to the ball to stake a claim to it, using an Ethernet
connection to communicate that decision to teammates.
While the
legged robot work was in progress, graduate student Gregory Kuhlmann
and undergrads Justin Lallinger and Bharat Kejriwal applied
a similar approach to improve code for the computer simulation
competition. The three came in second in the American RoboCup coached
computer simulation league, in which an AI-based computer program
provided adaptable coaching advice to on-screen players. In the
legged league, the larger crew lost in their final game of three,
which was against the runner-up team from Georgia Institute of
Stone and a smaller student group have since been prepping
for this week's international RoboCup challenge. The Austin
Villa 'bots
walk twice as fast as in May, thanks to programming tweaks provided
by graduate student Daniel Stronger, and can scan the field and
kick faster as well thanks to graduate student Peggy Fidelman and
undergraduate Ellie Lin. They're also able to tuck a ball
under the chin as cargo, or do a head-butt to send it flying sideways.
"We're now ready in this last stretch before Italy
to focus on completely new behaviors that can take advantage of
these better
building blocks," Stone says.
Mohan Sridharan, graduate student in Electrical and Computer
Engineering, works to refine the robots' visual acuity.
For example, the robots are
being programmed to detect where they and their teammates are on
the playing field so that programs like "Dibs" are
easier to carry out. These programs, which create what Stone refers
to as "locker room" agreements that are made before
competition, will be a key part of the computer simulation teams
in Italy, and play a role in Stone's other AI-based activities.
example is the mock travel agent competitions that he has been
a part of since 2000. The competitions involve on-screen agents
haggling to create the best vacation packages based on various
flight, hotel and entertainment options. Stone's team won
the 2000 Trading Agent Competition and was one of two declared
winners the following year. He hopes his team fares as well in
this year's competition in August.
Though Stone always considers
these more practical applications of autonomous machinery, he admits
to feeling a rush when considering
RoboCup creator Hirokai Kitano's ultimate vision: creating
a team of autonomous humanoid robots by 2050 that duke it out and
win against a real soccer team.
"That's akin to the dream of landing a man on the
moon," Stone
says, noting that this dream will keep AI researchers challenged
for decades.
Other AI dreams in their infancy include robots that
can perform search and rescue operations for military or other
purposes, and
a network of computers whose nodes can sense outages and autonomously
decide the quickest ways to re-route e-mail.
As the dreams become
reality, Stone notes that people will tend to forget the machine
learning behind them. Consider, for example,
the case of shoppers who think nothing about AI when they go to
a Web site and receive suggestions of other products to purchase,
or chess-playing programs that make moves without input. There
is an advantage to these fluid expectations, though.
"It means we have the freedom to keep looking 20 years into
the future," Stone says.
And you can bet that he'll
travel the journey of a thousand innovations needed to get there
a single, well-planned robot step
at a time.

My best friend who is a professional photographer did maternity photos when I was pregnant with my first child. I'm now almost 34 weeks pregnant with my second and looking to do another maternity shoot at the end of the month. I want to include my 2 year old daughter and my DH. Anyone got any creative poses other than that usual ones I've seen or did with my first?

If I were you, I'd check out photographer websites for ideas, if you want something "different". That way you can see what kind of things you would like. Or ask to see your friend's portfolio, I'm sure she has lot of creative ideas.
A quick way to see photo styles is to go to Google and click on image and then type in maturnity photograph and you get hundreds of thumbnails to look at and then click on the one you want a closer look of and it shows you the picture in the page it came from but if you click on the picture again it will show you the picture full size. That is where I got a lot of my ideas from.
I really like the shots of a preggo mommy laying down in like a field with their other child next to them. Maybe handholding or both laying down with the child's hand on the mom's tummy while looking at each other. It turns out so cute.

The thought recently occurred to me that, taking into account the devilish intensity of St. Vincent's show at Sasquatch! (see above) and the musical genius of David Byrne, their musical partnership should be one for the ages. Their album, Love This Giant, drops Sept. 11, and, as we previously reported, the hand-holders bring their tent to the 5th Avenue Theater on Oct. 17. Tickets, however, went on sale this morning, earlier than we expected. The show is under the City Arts Fest umbrella -- which doesn't go on sale until August.
Renee McMahon If you wait until August, and buy a City Arts Fest wristband, you can still go to the show, but you won't be guaranteed access the way you would with a ticket to the specific show. Correction: Festival wristbands will guarantee access to this show. But if you don't want to buy a fest pass, and just want to catch the show, this is the time to get your tix.
OK, you've been warned!

PAIRING. A common school desegregation* technique of combining two schools, one white and one minority, so that one school then serves all students in the first subset of grades and the other school serves all students in the second subset of grades. For example, if one school serves all white pupils from kindergarten to sixth grade and another serves black students in the same grades, under pairing pupils are reassigned so that all kindergartners through third graders attend the first school and all fourth through sixth graders attend the second school. Pairing originated in Princeton, New Jersey, in 1948, where two Princeton elementary schools were paired and students were assigned to grades K-5 in one school and 6-8 in the other school. Pairing, therefore, is also referred to as the Princeton Plan. Pairing is differentiated from clustering,* where more than two schools are brought together.

Bangor Super 8 Motel
Traveler Comments
romm was satisfactory but staff was unfriendly
Staff were knowledgeable and friendly. Accommodations were sparse with little to know amenities such as shampoo, etc. and No Smoking room had odor of old smoke
Use Super 8 frequently, they are usually standard, can expect similar accomodations in any area we stay
Have stayed in Super 8 motels in several areas of the country, they are affordable, clean, and friendly
What I expected.
The Motel was located near where I was going. The staff was efficient and attentive to my needs. I was pleased by Super 8 Motels once again. A good Value!

Beautiful. Congratulations on the DD!
That's freaking beautiful, when I saw the thumb on the DD page I thought this was digital. Thank You and congrats on the DD.
This is so amazing! Very interesting style and composition! I love it!
This is beautiful! The colours are lovely.
Congratulations on the DD. It's very well deserved. Also, I had to add your Elements Mandala to my "Favorites" list. Not just both of those pieces but your entire gallery is inspired and stunning. I could get lost for days going over all of your work. Truly amazing.
Fantastic work! love the colors & movement.. bravo!
very nice job
very pretty, really love the colors!
Love this type of work! You did an amazing job on this!
Wow... this is very good. I love how you made such a sharp contrast between the oranges and blues, but in a way that flows across the canvas in a sort of curve... it's very cool. ^__^
i thought it was a weird piece because of that for a while, glad it worked out
This would make a beautiful print!
Beautiful - love the use of colors
al those colours
i love it ^^
i love it ^^
Stunning! Congratulations!
Looks nearly like a fractal manip!
thank you no fractals here...we did some LED exposure photos earlier that gave us the inspiration

"Changjiang Cruise" Hubei Sheng by urban4est
Hubei Sheng Travel Guide: 296 reviews and 1,204 photos
This was a wonderful trip. We took the cruise ship from Yichang to Chongqing. Part of the dam system was already operating in October 2003 so the river was already changing but not to its eventual depth (height?).
The landscapes, river people, the wooden boats, riverside villages, mountain caves, Fengdu (the Ghost City), Shennong Stream Trackers, riverside temples are all parts of this amazing river culture. It is a wonderous trip.
The rivers throughout civilization have been a great influence on civilizations. This trip which lasted three days three nights was an eye opener. About 12% of the world's population lives on this river. It is one of the great rivers of the world. Following a river like this, such as the Mississippi, Ganges, Amazon or Nile, lets you look into the history and soul of mankind with enough quiet time to ponder the impact.
We started the trip by being driven to Yichang for 3 hours in the Lianhuashan Hospital's Ford Van. This was a good drive with the last chance to talk with my friends at the hospital. They took us to our hotel, The Yichang International Hotel, we had lunch together then said goodbye and they started the trip back.
The next day we borded the ship early in the morning. A porter offered to carry my bags (they weighed in at Chongqing Airport at 55kg) for 10 yuan. He carried them down stone steps across gang planks and up four flights of steep steps to the birth. I was glad to pay him to do it.
As we pulled away from Yichang I saw women washing laundry in the river and a man waved and shouted as he swam past the other way.
The ship was not for Laowai (foreigners) cruising. Food was on strict schedule and poor quality. The first night at midnight some passengers finally went to the Karaoke/Dance room (top deck) to stop the noise that was keeping everyone up. The rest of the trip the room closed early. The shower had no hot water (at any time of day) and the bunk was hard and narrow. Other than that it was the perfect cruise. In the locks I spoke with a gentleman from Germany on a group tour. We hung over the ship rails talking with each other. They had a fancier ship with good food, entertainment and lounge chairs on deck.
The Locks Above Yichang were impressive. We were lifted up and went on our way. But this was nothing compared to the locks we would go through later near the Three Gorges.

"Four Years of Change" Athens by viaggiatore45
Athens Travel Guide: 4,431 reviews and 10,595 photos
I was just awakening from an hour nap as my tour bus drove down the main road into Athens. There was not a cloud in the sky and as I looked around, there was a distinct 3rd world country feeling but one that I embraced. I liked Athens far more then Rome or other large tourist cities. Immediately I was romanced by the simplicity and the dusty age of the city.
A friend nudged me and pointed ahead. Between the bright sunlight pouring through my seat on the 2nd floor of my double decker bus front seat, I wasn't sure I was seeing what I saw. What...what is that up ahead. The city surrounds us but there is something I cannot place straight ahead. My friend laughed. He responded by saying The Acropolis. My throat caught in my chest and Athens immediately captured my heart as my favorite European city.
While most people dream of Rome, Venice, London and Paris, I dream of Athens. It is a simple city but rich in history. I spent my last day with the tour and visiting the Parthenon and the Acropolis. I enjoyed kicking the rocks under my feet along the roads nearest the Parthenon. There is something magical about those rocks.
As we continued our day tour, our bus dropped us off in front of the site of the 2004 Olympic Games; those games that are being kicked off tonight as I write this. It is a different place four years later. When I ran the track in my mini-skirt, crop top and running shoes it was a more simple structure. At most it was the equivilent of a very nice high school track here in America. It never crossed my mind they would tear that structure down and build what exists today.
I spent two days not enough in Athens and I hope one day to go back. It is a simple city but fun. I remember hopping in a cab the day I left, speeding to the Pier and discovering the boat an hour delayed. The thrill of the cab ride remains with me. I had time to step off of the ferry that would take me to Paros and grabbed my favorite treat: Baklava. I ate at least a half-pound. I haven't touched it since. It was delicious but I overate to the point of illness.
Greece is a fantastic country and Athens a city of mystery and of history at every corner. There is a magical spirit that is almost intangable, as if it comes from a story book thousands of years old. Yet, everyone should embrace this simple city in the critical eye of a philosopher. So many things originated in Athens and one short two day trip doesn't suffice to fully explore thousands of years of history.
