Moomer cruise was perfect for our group. Weather was perfect, length of sail was good. Good value for our money. Only 1 reservation: literature should inform that there is no comfortable seating. Had 1 person in party over age 85 and difficult to find place for him to sit.

Crew was friendly, but ride just didn't have great scenery or anything exciting. I've had better sailing experiences in Maine and Mystic, CT. Ice cream was good, but cherry is not one of my favorite flavors. Probably not worth the money. Tedious to have to wait for bus to take us across the highway between the ship and parking area.

Beautiful day out on the water with perfect weather. One issue with the ice cream though - it was cookie dough - we we could not enjoy as we are gluten intolerant.

The sail was pleasant, but a little boring. It would have been nice to have had some type of narration or music or entertainment of some type. The crew was personable and very helpful. We are glad that we took the sail, but would probably not do it again.

I Couldn't Recommend the Manitiou More!

|Couple on a Date
When I called to ask questions about the Ice Cream trip, I wanted to know if my wife who has a disability would be okay on the boat. After describing my wife's issues, cerebral palsy and needing to use a walker to get around, the nice lady assured me that she would be well taken care of. I purchased the tickets for a trip yet a month away. A few days before our trip, I called again just to make sure. Again she promised that she would be just fine. When I got there they were so accommodating that I didn't have to help my wife one bit, they did all the work. The crew was so outstanding and friendly that they made us feel right at home and that we would be well taken care of. When it started to rain they offered my wife a blanket and a rain poncho (the poncho's they offered to everyone, not just my wife). The ice cream, being Moomers, was of course outstanding. This cruise was worth every penny. I highly recommend you put this on your bucket list. Thank you, Manitou and crew. You made our 21st anniversary something truly special.

Capt. Dave and the crew were amazing. They attended to all ages and ensured everyone had an amazing time on board. Moomers ice cream is delicious!
- Do I need to book tickets in advance?
- While we can sometimes accommodate last minute sign-ups, we highly recommend purchasing your tickets in advance in order to guarantee your space. Book online or over the phone using a Visa, Mastercard or American Express.
- The forecast says 30% chance of rain, will it rain on my sail?
- This is a common summer forecast in this area. The majority of time we will see little or no precipitation. We watch the weather radar carefully and will cancel in the event of extended periods of heavy rain. However, we will sail in light rain or showers.
- What happens if there is bad weather?
- If Traverse Tall Ship Co. cancels because of bad weather (thunderstorms, heavy rain for extended periods etc.) you may reschedule your sail or receive a full refund.
- What is your cancellation policy?
- Once purchased, tickets cannot be refunded. You may reschedule your tickets (subject to availability) only if you do so at least 24 hours in advance.
- What should I bring with me?
- We strongly recommend sunscreen and a hat. Please leave beverages and coolers ashore. We do have a bar aboard with a variety of soft drinks and alcoholic beverages.
- What should I wear?
- Even at the height of summer it's usually cooler on the water. We recommend having a jacket or sweater with you. All passengers should wear rubber soft-soled sneakers/tennis shoes or sandals. No high-heels please!
- How much ice cream is included in this sail?
- Each person over the age of 2 will receive 2 scoops of the day's flavor options from none other than Moomer's!
- Is there an age limit for these sails?
- While there is no age limit for the sails, all attendees under 18 must be accompanied by a parent or guardian.
- Are children and infants allowed to attend? Do I need to purchase a ticket for them?
- Per USCG regulations all guests must be counted as passengers and have a ticket to sail. Keep in mind, we have a reduced rate available for children ages 3-12 and children ages 2 and under may attend for free but be sure to also book a free infant ticket for them.
- Is your sailboat safe?
- Manitou meets or exceeds all U. S. Coast Guard regulations for construction, stability, safety equipment, and electronics for vessels in passenger service. The U. S. Coast Guard licensed captain has many years of experience and you can rest assured of being in good hands.
- Will I get seasick?
- You are unlikely to get seasick. Manitou's size and construction generally translate into an easy motion. In addition, our sailing grounds in Grand Traverse Bay are well protected from most wind directions.
- Is there a bathroom on the boat?
- Yes, the boat is equipped with two bathrooms that are accessible at all times. We call them "marine heads" and they are unlike the bathrooms you use at home. Using a marine head involves pumping, and there are simple directions posted in the bathroom on how to use it.
- What happens if it starts raining when we're out on our sail?
- Don't worry, we won't melt! Trips with a little wetness have proven to be some of the most memorable bonding experiences for our guests. (This all depends on attitude of course...) We have ponchos available for all of our guests in the case we are caught in a rain-shower.
- Is the ship handicap accessible?
- Manitou is handicap accessible, although we cannot accommodate battery powered wheelchairs due to the excessive weight. We do have a manual wheelchair on the premises. There are two steps at either end of our boarding ramp. The crew is quite adept at lifting you over these two minor obstacles.
- Are any food or drinks included in the sail?
- Yes, the afternoon sail includes two scoops of Moomers Ice Cream. We also have additional snacks and beverages available for purchase on board.
- Can I bring my own food and drinks?
- You may bring your own food, but space considerations do not allow coolers to be brought aboard Manitou. Alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks may be purchased by cash or credit card. Please refrain from bringing beverages with you. It is illegal to bring alcoholic beverages aboard Manitou. Please leave beverages and coolers ashore.
- What sort of drinks do you have available on board?
- We offer soft drinks, lemonade and bottled water for $1. We also have beer and wine available for purchase on board. Our bar features local craft beer for approximately $4, or Bud Light for $3. We also have 375 ml bottles of wine available for approximately $10, or 375 ml bottles of champagne for $14.
- Do you accept both cash and credit cards on board?
- Yes, we accept Visa, Mastercard, Discover or cash on board.
- Is there a place to sit? Is seating assigned?
- Seating is on the cabin house tops and on deck boxes. This is backless bench seating. Seating is not assigned, and you are free to move about the vessel, including touring below decks, during the sail.
- Is smoking permitted?
- No. Smoking in not permitted anywhere on our vessels or property.
- Do you have life jackets?
- Per U. S. Coast Guard regulations, adult and child life jackets are available. You are not required to wear life jackets, but are welcome to if you like. If you would like your child to wear a life jacket, and you have a recreational vest style jacket, we recommend you bring it. The USCG required jackets that we keep aboard offer excellent flotation, but are somewhat bulky.
- Are pregnant women allowed to attend the sail?
- Yes, pregnant women are welcome aboard.

- Tipping is customary, but should be based on your satisfaction with the service you receive. A 15% gratuity is appropriate if you are happy with the performance of the captain and crew.

The summer of 1982 produced a heap of landmark sci-fi blockbusters like "E.T.," "Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan" and "Blade Runner." There was so much going on, that it was easy for a film to fall through the cracks — and that's just what happened to John Carpenter's "The Thing." The film opened on June 25, but struggled to find an audience and barely broke even at the box office.
With a reception like that, it would appear to be just another schlocky B-horror movie, designed to muster up a quick scare in theaters before disappearing into the cinematic garbage dump. But "The Thing" was far from your ordinary horror flick. The story of an Antarctic research team stumbling onto — and being preyed upon by — a mysterious, shape-changing alien, left a crater-sized impact on horror cinema that is still being felt today. And there are several elements from the movie that prove why it's so influential and intimidating to modern filmmakers.
Gruesome Practical Effects
The most noteworthy achievement of the film lies with the special effects that were used to give life to the Thing from Another World. The hellish mutations were created by Rob Bottin, a seriously under-appreciated visual artist who has worked on projects like "The Howling," "RoboCop" and "Total Recall." By using animatronics and make-up to depict the monster, it created a physical threat in the scene; the look of horror on the characters' faces matched the real disgust of the actors having to stare at a pulsating, tentacled eight-foot-tall parasite.
As producers increasingly rely on cheap CGI to be a quick and easy fix for every facet of movie-making, a lot of special effects skills will be lost to history. With the exception of a handful of foreign directors (like Guillermo del Toro or Peter Jackson) there's no one in Hollywood today that can match the terrifying creativity on display in "The Thing." As frightening as the final product may be, it is still the work of an actual skilled artisan and not just an assembly-line mouse-clicker.
(Special props to the late Stan Winston for creating the nightmare-inducing dog monster from the beginning of the movie.)
Creeping Cinematography
An aspect of early Carpenter that gets overlooked is the efforts of Dean Cundey, the cinematographer on many of his first films. Just look at the palette used in work like "Halloween," "The Fog" and "Escape from New York" and it's clear that Cundey was a master of atmosphere. His contrast between darkness and light amplified the looming menace that hid in the shadows. By striking the bright white snow of the Antarctic against the dead black night, the environment becomes almost abstract, adding to the fantastical nature of the horror.
Furthermore, for as otherworldly as the Thing appears, Carpenter and Cundey still used the classic approach of bathing the monster in darkness, and only revealing the full horror in brief shots — leaving the viewer's imagination to fill in the rest.
Ominous Soundtrack
Usually Carpenter scores his own movies with a signature synth-driven sound, but "The Thing" marks one of the rare times he handed off the composer's hat to someone else — and that someone else just happened to be the iconic Ennio Morricone. The Italian music-maker is responsible for some of the most famous soundtracks in history, notably the westerns of Sergio Leone.
Uniquely, "The Thing" is one of the few Morricone works that is driven by synthesizers, giving the movie a cold and unnatural sound, filled with menacing, thudding minor keys. Instead of the traditional string section that raises its pitch when something scary happens, a methodical electronic wave washes over the entire film.
The Apocalypse
"The Thing" belongs to an unofficial trilogy in Carpenter's head known as "The Apocalypse Trilogy." (The other two films being "Prince of Darkness" and "In the Mouth of Madness.") They all bare the markings of one of his biggest influences: author H.P. Lovecraft. "The Thing" especially plays with many of the same themes of the influential writer. The horror is cosmic in nature and unexplainable to human biology. And it's not just the group of characters in the movie that are victims; all of humanity is at risk, and not for any overtly sinister motivations. Humanity is at risk simply because it's weak enough to get in the way of a cold and uncaring universe.
The Thing is not a villain; it is simply a predator of horrific, unimaginable proportions, and we are it's prey. Removing all emotional understandings of "good" and "evil" from the threat, and raising it to the more abstract "survive or die" philosophy is not a comfortable talking point for popcorn audiences (which is probably why producers prefer to keep us distracted with campy trash about naked babysitters).
Kurt Russell
For a cold and unrelenting threat like the Thing, you need a cold and unrelenting protagonist. As R.J. MacReady, Russell isn't really a hero (made evident by his gunning down of colleagues), but he has the detached survival instincts needed to get through the situation. It's his lack of compassion and hesitation that allow him to survive the paranoid scenario; for a lot of audiences that put themselves in his situation, they know they would be goners.

Apparently there is very little information available about this controller. I suspect the device could be removed - that would be the best approach if you are not concerned with automatic cutoff of power to prevent peak loads. I'm curious what the controller setting in now. Perhaps we could just increase the setting and avoid the shutdown of the dryer.

In ages past, an island called Illusia floated at the center of the world. At the heart of the island towered an ancient, enormous tree that stretched up to the very heavens. For ages past, chaos and sorrow had engulfed the world until at last its salvation appeared in the form of a boy, a girl, and a holy sword. Time flowed on and peace returned. The sword and the tree remained, and they soon came to be known as the Sword of Mana and the Mana Tree. Part of the "World of Mana" project, this game is a 2D RPG follow-up to the adored action-RPG series. Embark on a co-op multiplayer quest, teaming together to achieve actions and reach areas, by helping players up or working together in ways that single-player adventurers cannot do. Children of Mana features a complex weapon system where you can equip multiple weapons for range and melee attack.

Great Multiplayer Game
This review is from: Children of Mana game
Pros: Excellent Multiplayer game that is reminiscent of Four Swords or the old Gauntlet games on the NES. The soundtrack and art used are absolutely gorgeous!
Cons: No WiFi multiplayer action, and if you are a fan of previous Legend of Mana titles, you might steer clear of this game due to its poor story development and dungeon-grinding repetativeness. But if you're looking for some multiplayer fun, and your friends next door have it, might be worth the 30-beans.
Other Thoughts: Hopefully Square-enix sees it in their heart to give us a more complete Mana title somewhere down the road!

Opinion: India strains credibility with 'not state-of-the-art' claim
The Indian Finance Ministry's decision to knock back an Apple exemption that would have freed it from a requirement that 30 percent of a future Apple Store's content must be made locally came with a particularly puzzling explanation: Apple's products, it said, were not"state-of-the-art" or "cutting-edge," which at first strains credulity. Unless the decision is reversed, it means Apple's goal to open at least three Apple Stores in India by 2017 will have to be put on the backburner, which is a significant blow to Apple's current plans for the country.

A security researcher has discovered a new way to attack iOS devices, one that could install malicious apps on a device, even if it hasn't been jailbroken by the user. Called SandJacking, Mi3 Security's Chilik Tamir demonstrated the attack at the Hack In The Box conference earlier this week, with an attacker with physical device access, and some time, to be able to replace a legitimate app with a malicious version. The substitution in turn can provide the attacker with access to stored user data associated within the replaced app.
Report: Apple stops selling AirPort Extreme, Time Capsule
For reasons not yet clear, Apple appears to be recalling all AirPort Extreme and Time Capsule base stations from its US retail stores, and may have suspended its Personal Pickup service, at least temporarily, from a variety of stores around the country. Despite a recent firmware update to some models of AirPort, the pulling of the units could be to ensure compliance with some new sales restrictions on older equipment that takes effect on June 2. It is also possible that the devices could be refreshed at or around the Worldwide Developers Conference in mid-June.

Hands On: Twelve South TimePorter travel stand and case
We're a year into the life of the Apple Watch, and still it's rare to find a case or a stand that includes a charging cable. You almost always have to use the one Apple provided, and thread it through some plastic or metal. It's still the case most of the time, and it is the case with Twelve South's TimePorter Travel Stand and Case for Apple Watch.
Rumor Roundup: everything new is old again
We're another week along with the latest twist and turns of the rumor mill, but we seem to have come full circle this time: "new" and "leaked" schematics for the "iPhone 7" and the "7 Plus" larger model are back to the original ideas: that apart from the camera and slightly-rearranged antenna bands, the next iPhones will look almost exactly like the ones they replaced. Worse, we're now hearing reports that the alleged home Siri device will actually be ... another new Apple TV model, just as Apple said it would be a year ago.
Pointers: Organize iPhone apps on your Mac
Death, taxes, the fact that you haven't plugged your iPhone into your Mac since the dawn of time and the other fact that you have so many apps that your phone seems heavier. These are the four certainties of life and Pointers can do something about two of them –– plus get you an extra added bonus for your trouble.
US nuclear weapons control finally phasing out floppy disks
According to a new report published by the Government Accountability Office (GAO), a number of US government agencies are currently still using computing technology for aspects of their operations that data back as much as over 50 years, reports AFP. The most alarming of the findings in the report is that the Department of Defense still uses eight-inch floppy disks on an IBM Series 1 computer system system dating back to the 1970s as part of the nuclear command and control system. The report warns that these systems are both costly and no longer effective.
New Apple patent: peer-to-peer ad-hoc network communication system
Apple has been awarded a new patent on a close-range, walkie-talkie-like peer-to-peer communications network. Like Apple's AirDrop technology that connects devices over close distances for data-sharing purposes, the system would allow people nearby each other to communicate together over an ad hoc network. Specifically, the two (or more) connected users, would be able to speak to each other using the same type of headset, one that could potentially connect to a device over a Lightning port. Using a device like an iPhone, they would be able to see other appear on their local comms network, tap on the other user, and initiate a conversation.

Trade-up program expands in Europe
Smartphone users in France, Italy, and Spain will have until at least August of this year to trade in old iPhone, Windows Phone, or Android models at Apple Stores, and put the reward towards a new iPhone -- thanks to an expansion of Apple's trade-in program into those countries. The money given for the trade-in must be applied towards a new iPhone on a two-year payment plane, and traders must qualify under a credit check as part of the program. Interested customers can apply for the trade-in at their nearest Apple Store. http://bit.ly/1qPsldD
NBCUniversal adds Bravo, Syfy, E! to Apple TV
NBCUniversal has launched three new apps channels for Apple TV users. Bravo Now, Syfy Now and E! Now brings users access full seasons of current and past episodes of most of NBCUniversal's catalog. The Bravo Now app includes shows like "The Real Housewives of New York Cit," "Below Deck Mediterranean," comedy "Odd Mom Out" and "Top Chef." The Syfy Now app offers up shows like "The Magicians," thriller "12 Monkeys" and the reality show "Face Off." The E! Now app serves up shows like "Keeping Up with the Kardashians," "Botched," "#RichKids of Beverly Hills," Caitlyn Jenner's "I Am Cait," and "WAGS." While some content is free, most content requires users to authenticate via their cable satellite or telco TV provider. http://bit.ly/20K4Pea
Apple rolls out Arabic version of Apple.com
Apple has rolled out a new version of its Apple.com website for Arabic language users in the United Arab Emirates. The site utilizes a right-to-left reading format where it has been updated, although the upgrade is still in progress with a number of page links still in the original English language left-to-right format. Of particular note is that the site debuts an all-new custom Arabic font created by the Tarek Atrissi Design agency, giving it a highly contemporary look and feel. The new support for Arabic on its host website follows the introduction of full support for right-to-left languages in iOS 9, and the addition of Arabic support to Siri late last year. http://apple.co/20JHGIM
Adobe previews Photoshop content-aware crop
Adobe has previewed a new 'content-aware crop' feature from the next version of its Photoshop CC. The new feature is similar to its 'content-aware fill' from the current version of Photoshop CC, and potentially saves users time when cropping photos in a way that might otherwise leave blank white space in the frame. Adobe's 'content-aware' tech automatically assesses the blank space and seamlessly fills the blank space with the nearest related content in the space when a photo is expanded or rotated without the need to manually clone that part of the image. The feature allows users to move a horizon by adding more sky or ground, change the aspect ratio by adding content around the edges of the image and fill in the corners of an image when rotated during a crop. Adobe says the feature is coming soon and will be automatically available to Creative Cloud subscribers. http://adobe.ly/20JDFEu
Markzware updates Q2ID for QuarkXPress 12 files
Graphic design file conversion tool maker Markzware has launched a new version of its Q2ID tool.

For some reasons, my Office 365 Exchange emails are not being pushed out to my laptop which has Outlook 2010. I used to receive emails instantaneously without having to Send and Receive. Now, my Outlook just sits there and says "Connected to Microsoft Exchange", but I won't receive any new emails until I shut Outlook down and restart it. A manual Send & Receive does not help. I tried creating a new Mail Profile (which is a major PiTA with the number of accounts I have), but I'm seeing the same behavior. What could be wrong?
Thanks for the feedback.
Hi Hodge,
Are you meaning you can receive emails only after restarting your Outlook? Please make sure you are not using the beta version of Outlook 2010. Besides, I suggest you run the desktop setup from the download page of MOP to try to fix the issue.
If the issue persists, please let me know if you can send email out via Outlook, and provide a screenshot of your clicking the Send & Receive button.
Reken Liu
Hi Reken, yes, when I restart Outlook, all new emails are downloaded from Exchange. Any subsequent emails will not be downloaded until the next time I start Outlook. I am using Outlook 2010 that was downloaded from my Microsoft Action Pack, so it should be the full release build. Here's my full version number: 14.0.6106.5005. Yes, I can send emails just fine.
I am having the EXACT same issue on multiple machines with both Outlook 2007 and 2010.
Just started about a week ago
I am having the exact same issue as well. Outlook 2010 32 Bit on 64 Bit Windows 7.
I have the same exact issue on the following:
Win 2008 - 64Bit with Outlook 2010 32-Bit
Win 7 32-Bit with Outlook 2010 32-Bit
this started happening a couple of days ago? Not sure but I remember Windows update installed a whole bunch of updates just a few days ago.
One of my colleagues has the same problem as well. He can receive emails well from his iPhone but the desktop Outlook 2010 does not show the same emails even press "send/receive" button. The new emails show afer restart Outlook. We tested it on Gmail which delivered new emails to iPhone and Outlook without any delay and problems. What shall we do?
Simon from Hong Kong
Hi All,
Thanks for all the feedbacks. Based on the situation, I would suggest you first check the Connection Status by pressing the Ctrl key, and right clicking the Outlook Icon to choose the "Connection Status". This will help us check if there is any connectivity errors or confirm which Exchange Server you are connecting to.
Additionally, in order to help us narrow down the issue, if there is any error messages when you click Send & Receive in your Outlook, please post screenshots about the errors here.
There are some other related resources may be helpful for you:
Turn on or off Cached Exchange Mode
E-mail messages are not automatically sent or received at startup in Outlook
Thanks for your understanding and cooperation.
Best Regards,
Reken Liu
There is absolutely no error. The connection status is ALWAYS connected and there are no connectivity issues. When I restart Outlook OR set the connection to Offline and then Online again (basically reset the connection) - Outlook client downloads the new emails but then goes dormant again (until the connection is reset again)
I got exactly the same issue and exactly the same timeframes.
We don't have WSUS or Microsoft Updates here.
Problem is gone. Seems to work again.
It is still there. Not fixed yet.
I noticed this today and it is still happening right now. I noticed that I had emails on my iPhone that were not in Outlook. I clicked on update folder and then they came in. I don't usually get much email on the weekend so didn't notice until this morning. I checked the connection status and I have no failed requests at all. I have a second Exchange account which is getting emails so it doesn't seem to be an Outlook problem itself. From what I can tell, it looks like this started around the 29th or 30th of October - at least in my case.
There are no error messages anywhere. The connection is fine, and the folders update when I click "update folder". They still will not push though.

Mysteries, monsters mark remainder of Marvel's 1980s "Star Trek" series
Star Trek #6-#18
The 13 final issues of Marvel's 1980s "Star Trek" series feature stories from writers including Mike W. Barr, Martin Pasko and J.M. DeMatteis. These issues (along with Nos. 4 and 5) were collected by IDW in 2009′s "Star Trek Omnibus."
In Star Trek #6, the variation on a "locked-room" mystery by writer Mike W. Barr and artists Dave Cockrum and Klaus Janson features an apparent transporter-beam murder.
When Ambassador Phral of Yannick VI is dead upon beaming to the Enterprise, it jeopardizes the planet's plans to join the Federation. It's up to Spock and McCoy to find out who killed Phral, and what Captain Kirk's connection is to the man's past.
The mystery is solved a bit too neatly, but it's got its charms. A decent issue.
With Star Trek #7, Tom DeFalco and Mike Nasser take over the reins of the continuing adventures of the Starship Enterprise. Klaus Janson remains the inker. When the Enterprise goes to attempt to save a planet from an oncoming radiation cloud, Kirk, Spock and McCoy beam down to the surface. They find the seemingly primitive race on the planet built statues honoring Kirk, Spock and McCoy, years before they ever arrived.
Martin Pasko writes Star Trek #8 from Marvel, which returns Dave Cockrum as the penciller. But with Ricardo Villamonte replacing Klaus Janson on inks, the artwork takes on a flatter look.
The Enterprise is racing an agricultural engineer to a starbase for a heart transplant, but en route the crew is hit with a stasis beam – and Spock is transported off the ship. Kirk, McCoy and a team beam down to the planet, where they find two civilizations in conflict. They must rescue Spock without violating the Prime Directive, if possible.
The pacing on this one is a little off and the art's taken a turn for the worse. It's probably still acceptable for the era, but less necessary to seek out.
Martin Pasko remains the writer, Dave Cockrum the artist, being inked in Star Trek #9 by Frank Springer. At times in his career, Springer was fantastic, but he doesn't seem to help out the actor likenesses in this issue. Still, the storytelling in the artwork is fine. The story has too many coincidences for my liking, but Pasko has a decent handle on the voices of the characters.
In issue 9, the crew of the Enterprise are attacked by some madness-causing phenomenon after visiting the surface of a planet. Kirk, Spock and McCoy have to solve the mystery, which seems to involve a new crewmember who used to date Kirk.
Michael Fleisher ("The Spectre") steps in to write issue No. 10 of "Star Trek," with art by Leo Duranona, inked by Klaus Janson.
Captain Kirk can't go down to the surface of Barak-7 since he's recovering from the flu. So Spock and McCoy will make the trip without the captain. After their shuttlecraft has problems, they're forced to crash-land on the planet, where they come in contact with its alien, barbarian culture.
Spock and McCoy proceed to violate the crap out of the Prime Directive, but the art looks good. Unfortunately, this was the only issue in the Marvel run illustrated by Duranona.
Joe Brozowski and Tom Palmer, artists, join Martin Pasko for issue #11 of Marvel's "Star Trek." A former girlfriend of Scotty's comes on board the enterprise as the assistant to the eccentric psychiatrist Dr. Wentworth, who is being escorted from his clinic, where he may be in danger of radiation poisoning.
But once he's on board, strange monsters attack, and Wentworth leads the crew into insubordination. As even Captain Kirk falls under Wentworth's spell, it's up to Spock and McCoy to save the Enterprise.
Lots of convenient coincidences in this one, though the art and the monsters are pretty decent.
Alan Brennert is the plotter and Martin Pasko the scripter for "Star Trek" #12, with artists Luke McDonnell and Tom Palmer. The former Yeoman Rand has apparently married a ball of light and plans to go on a deep-space mission with her husband, where she expects to never see another human being.
When something goes wrong on the trip, however, it's up to the Enterprise to step in – perhaps even at the cost of the entire crew's lives. The ending to this one is callous, though perhaps unintentionally, but it did have a "Trek" feel to it.
Artist Joe Brozowski returns to the series with "Star Trek" #13, along with Tom Palmer and "D. Hands," which often in comics stands for "diverse hands" or, a lot of people. Martin Pasko is the writer.
A Klingon cruiser and the Enterprise are both in orbit around the neutral planet Hephaestus. Doctor McCoy runs into his estranged daughter Joanna on the planet, and her Vulcan fiancee, Suvak, who falls ill, requiring Bones to treat him.
Meanwhile, the Klingons hope to take the natural resources of the Hephaestians, putting them in conflict with the crew of the Enterprise. Joanna is captured by the Klingons, and it's up to McCoy and Suvak to work together with Captain Kirk to try to save her.
Star Trek issue #14 is written by Martin Pasko, with art by Luke McDonnell and Gene Day.
The Enterprise visits Zeta Reticuli II, which appears to have a civilization very like ancient Egypt. A meteor shower is about to hit the planet, and Kirk and crew go down to explore the planet, and to warn possible inhabitants.
The ruins on the planet appear Egyptian on closer inspection, as well. While there, Captain Kirk is possessed by what appears to be the spirit of an ancient Pharaoh, and begins to subvert the crew to follow his new royal directives.
Gil Kane ("Green Lantern") draws Marvel's "Star Trek" #15, with Martin Pasko continuing as the writer.
Nice artwork from one of comics' classic artists as Kirk, Spock and McCoy must infiltrate an alien prison and rescue a commodore's son. Lots of action and intrigue, and even a moral, even if it gets pretty preachy at the end. One of the better of the "Star Trek" issues in this series.
Martin Pasko writes "Star Trek" #16, where he's joined by penciller Luke McDonnell and inkers Gene Day and Sal Trapani.
The Enterprise has traveled to the planet Valerian to provide medical checkups to the Federation colonists of the planet. The colonists appear to be missing, but the planet does have an ample supply of trolls and gnomes in funny hats.
I really had trouble getting past the gnomes.
There's a cool Walt Simonson cover on Marvel's "Star Trek" #17, which marks the return of writer Mike W. Barr to the series, where he's joined by penciller Ed Hannigan ("Cloak and Dagger"). Inkers are Tom Palmer and Dave Simons.
Priority orders have drawn the Enterprise to Goran IV, where a crashed probe could create a compound that could prove fatal to the planet's inhabitants.
Spock, Kirk and McCoy go planetside and attempt to remain incognito, but they are suspected as witches and devils by the rulers of the time and captured. It's up to a small child and an astronomer to help them contact the Enterprise, in order to drop the antidote and save the planet's inhabitants.
The alien planet is awfully similar to Earth of the past, but I suppose that's a bit of a Trek trope at this point. The art, for the most part, is pretty good.
"Special Last Issue Collector's Item," proclaims the cover to Marvel's "Star Trek" #18, and while that's sometimes true — the last issue of Marvel's "Star Wars," for example, is one of the hardest to find in the series — it seems an odd thing to trumpet on the cover.
On the inside, writer J.M. DeMatteis joins artists Joe Brozowski and Sal Trapani as the Enterprise encounters a huge mechanical construct in space. Aboard is the Sustainer, apparently a giant robot of sorts, who teleports Kirk and Spock to the huge world-ship and tells them that he requires something of them – one of them must die.
A quirky and somewhat trippy issue, which fits in with DeMatteis' work of the period. Ultimately, a fine way to close out the Marvel Comics run of "Star Trek."

When the topic of artificial intelligence crops up, many jump to the conclusion that, once a machine becomes more intelligent than its maker, the world as humans know it is doomed.
I can't help but think that for a machine to have intelligence greater than that of a human it must also have tolerance for other life forms greater than that of a human. Is this dangerous thinking? Does anyone have a positive outlook on the growth of the AI field? Even deeper, has our species already accomplished singularity? Timothy Lenoir wrote a
compelling article
arguing that singularity took place when our brains evolved the capacity for abstract symbolic representation, paving the way for diverse culture, complex social organizations, technology, and further evolution of knowledge. Agree? Disagree?
Anyway, the race to achieving technological singularity continues to get tighter. So, how long til humans end up in zoos? My bet's on no longer than a century.

Discussion in 'EU Community' started by CPL_Macja, Sep 3, 2012.
Greetings to you all. So sorry for being away so long.
@BultarSwan Master Swan, I replied to your message you sent on our offsite. Did you get it yet?
You really should hang around more often.
RKS done and done. Go check it out.
@CPL_Macja I won't ask if you've been behaving yourself, because I know you haven't.
@Mitth_Fisto Master, you must be quite busy. I don't see you Online over here very much.
Indeed Padawan, Indeed.
DRL is pretty busy for me right now, as the Grand Masters know, but I am still here. Still listening to my padawans.
I'll definitely pop in from time to time. At some point, I just know that my character is going to meet up with the GoL group, in the RP.
Seems like a possibility.
Still waiting on that front...
Still waiting on Sky Guy here. Oh well, all good things in time.
Waiting on Journeyman1 here, but I know CPL is very busy so I don't mind.
For everyone in the Hangers... you do not need to wait on Voj's reaction to things. If I read something that he needs to immediately act to I will put a message in here to wait for him or I will send you a PM with his reaction. For now carry on with any conversations.
As far as where he is in relation to everyone else... he is hanging back standing next to Dovey, as if he is guarding her against the newcomers. Here is a pic I did of him from melding together multiple linearts one of my friends did on deviantArt.
@Tim Battershell you should note that he may look young, but he is a powerful presence in the Force and is classified as being on the same level as a Jedi Master.
Roger that, thanks CPL.
You were saying?
>.> Not bad...
Awesome picture
I know I couldn't do it. My skills very much trend towards the ships and sabers. I can't draw a person to save my life.
Argh I always feel like I am about to sneeze and yet rarely do.
Flyby post!
Ooc: Hope everyone is doing fine! It's been a long day of driving.
I'm just waiting to see if Alec's guess about what's going on with Cambria was right
Neither can I but that is why I color other people's 'persons'
I do pencil. But my stupid scanner!
I just admire others artwork.
I burn art...

So I knew that my milk would come in a few days after having Aidan, but since this is my first I had no idea what to expect although I knew it would be painful. Well, its worse than I thought. I feel like my breast tissue is trying to escape out of my skin. Or like I've had a horrible boob job gone bad where they put the wrong size implants in like 3x larger then they should be.
Besides Cabo Creme, Cabbage leaves and pain relievers do you know of anything that I can do to help with the pain of swelling?
I hate this. It is so unfair. I have milk and no baby to feed. It is just so cruel. I am already having such a hard time dealing with the death of my son, this just seems like a slap in the face.

Take-Two Renews 'Agent' Trademark
The gaming public at large may have forgotten about Agent's existence, but it seems that publisher Take-Two has not. Siliconera points out that the trademark for the title has been renewed by the company as of July 18, 2013. No new information is found in the filing, which simply confirms that the game's logo remains unchanged.
For those coming in fresh to this particular ballet, Agent was announced by SCEA president and CEO Jack Tretton at E3 in 2009 as a PlayStation 3 exclusive. Nothing was shown except for the above logo, and nothing official has been shown since. Whether the game is still exclusive to PlayStation 3 — or PlayStation at all — has since been cast into doubt by Tretton himself.
The game is still clearly somewhere on Take-Two's agenda, but whether we'll ever see anything meaningful surface in the near future is another thing entirely. All we can do is wait and see.

triggers the sql LOWER() function on the column.
This would take less effort than to use the long extra statement every time.

Yes to the use case, no to the proposed API. A better approach would be a variation on #10972: allow annotation of modified columns in a query, and then allow ordering on those columns - for example:
comment:2 follow-up: ↓ 3 Changed 6 years ago by Raydiation
Hm, thats about the same as the method with extra.
Imagine youd have to order 4 columns:
result = MusicCollection.objects.all().order_by(artists__lower, songs__lower, genre__lower, album__lower)
result = MusicCollection.objects.annotate(lcartist=LowerCase('artist__name'), lcsongs=LowerCase('songs__name'), lcgenre=LowerCase('genre__name'), lcalbum=LowerCase('artist__album')).order_by(lcartist, lcsongs, lcgenre, lcalbum)
result = MusicCollection.objects.all().extra(select={'lcartist': 'lower(artist)', 'lcsongs': 'lower(song)', 'lcgenre': 'lower(genre)', 'lalbum': 'lower(album)'}).order_by('lcartist', "lcsongs", "lcgenre", "lcalbum")
You see, annotate can take a wide spectrum of stuff, but it doesnt specifically tackle this common issue. Imho its about to write as little code as it needs, and the annotate version is even more to write than the extra version. I wouldnt call this an improvement.

Replying to Raydiation:
Imho its about to write as little code as it needs
Brevity is a nice side effect when possible, but clarity and flexibility is the real goal we are aiming at.
__lower suffers from several problems:
- The literal python syntax you are proposing isn't actually valid python - you would need to pass the artists__lower as a string.
- Ignoring the syntax problem, it's inconsistent with current usage of the double underscore. Current usage is to define a comparison operator, not to define a transformation.
- It's not easy for users to define their own operators.
As another possible approach, I'd be much more likely to support:
result = MusicCollection.objects.all().order_by(LowerCase('artist__name'), LowerCase('songs__name'), LowerCase('genre__name'))
This is will ultimately require the same internal code, but avoids the need to explicitly name the annotations.
comment:4 Changed 6 years ago by Raydiation
result = MusicCollection.objects.all().order_by(LowerCase('artist__name'), LowerCase('songs__name'), LowerCase('genre__name'))
This seems like a very good solution too me, im happy with this :)

Alondra de la Parra is an excellent conductor. I've never seen a conductor having so much fun directing a magnificent orchestra such as The San Francisco Symphony.
I enjoyed very much the pieces selected for this concert. Certainly enjoyed the narration by the gorgeous Chris Noth. Delightful.

About SQUEEZETRIGGER.COM WWW.SQUEEZETRIGGER.COM is a service designed to help bonafide shareholders of publicly traded US companies fight short selling. SqueezeTrigger.com has built a proprietary database that uses Threshold list feeds and short sale time and sale data from NASDAQ, AMEX and NYSE to generate detailed and useful information to combat the short selling problem. For the first time, actual trade by trade data is available to the public that shows the attempted size, actual size, price and average value of short sales in stocks that have been shorted. This information is valuable in determining the precise point at which short sellers go out-of-the-money and start losing on their short trades.
SQUEEZETRIGGER.COM has built a massive database that collects, analyzes and publishes a proprietary SqueezeTrigger for each stock that has been shorted. The SqueezeTrigger database of nearly 2.5 billion short sale transactions goes back to January 1, 2005 and calculates the exact price at which the Total Short Interest is short in each stock. This data was never before available prior to January 1, 2005 because the Self Regulatory Organizations (primary exchanges) guarded it aggressively. After the SEC passed Regulation SHO, exchanges were forced to allow data processors like SqueezeTrigger.com to access the data.
The SqueezeTrigger database collects individual short trade data on over 7,000 NYSE, AMEX and NASDAQ stocks and general short trade data on nearly 8,000 OTCBB and PINKSHEET stocks. Each month the database grows by approximately 50,000,000 short sale transactions and provides investors with the knowledge necessary to time when to buy and sell stocks with outstanding short positions. By tracking the size and price of each montha'a"s short transactions, SQUEEZETRIGGER.COM provides institutions, traders, analysts, journalists and individual investors the exact price point where short sellers start losing money and a short squeeze can begin.

Moses in the Cradle Plant
Moses in the Cradle Houseplants (Tradescantia spathacea) have many alternative names such as Moses-in-a-Boat, Boat Lily, Cradle Lily, Moses-in-the-Bullrushes, and Oyster Plant. Whatever you want to call them, these colorful houseplants, native to Mexico, the West Indies, and Central America, are easy to care for and produce very attractive. Moses In the Cradle Plants produce rosettes of long, waxy, sword-shaped leaves that are glossy green or green, purple, and white striped on top and a rich purple on the under side. The very small white flowers, tucked away in a purple boat shaped bract, give Moses-in-the-Cradle Houseplants their many common names. Treat a Moses-in-the-Cradle Plant as you would a Succulent PlantsSucculents, native to very dry areas of the tropics and subtropics, adapted to a limited availability of water by developing thick roots, leaves, and stems. These parts of the plant collect and store water in order to survive long periods of drought. This gives succulents a very swollen appearance and its nickname, the fat plant. Succulents need little water or humidity. and it will grow beautifully.
