ARLINGTON, Texas -- Tampa Bay Rays fans took a break from watching some lousy baseball Thursday to pay tribute to Carl Crawford, a four-time All-Star who has helped lead the franchise to prominence over the past few seasons. The Tropicana Field crowd chanted Crawford's name in the late innings of a 6-0 loss to the Texas Rangers, in acknowledgement of the likelihood that his days in Florida are nearing an end.
If Crawford feels wistful over the prospect of leaving Tampa for Anaheim, Boston, New York or some other city in the market for a dynamic left fielder, he's keeping it well hidden. The Rays trail Texas 2-0 in the best-of-five American League Division Series, and Crawford is more concerned with getting a few hits than hitting the financial mother lode.
We have to stay in the present. But I would be lying to you if I said I didn't think about the fact that this may be my last rodeo with this ballclub.
"-- Rays first baseman Carlos Pena
"You just really focus on the next game,'' Crawford said Friday. "You want to try to win one game and keep the series going, because [the other] stuff will get taken care of at some point.''
Rays first baseman Carlos Pena, in contrast, is a bundle of introspection. Pena kicked around with four organizations before busting loose for 46 home runs with Tampa in 2007, so he feels a debt of gratitude to the organization that helped revive his career. Like Crawford, he's on the cusp of free agency. And unless the Rays find a way to win three straight games against Texas, he knows he'll be shaking hands and clearing out his locker soon.
"My heart is with this ballclub,'' Pena said. "This is extremely personal to me. So yes, it does cross my mind: Is this going to be the last game I play with the Rays? I don't want it to be. I want to be the last team standing on the field, victorious at the end of the year. That is my vision -- my dream.
"At the same time, I understand that it's game by game. We have to stay in the present. But I would be lying to you if I said I didn't think about the fact that this may be my last rodeo with this ballclub.''
More than most teams, the Rays have a vested interest in trying to make time stand still. Tampa Bay outlasted the Yankees and Red Sox to finish first in the rugged AL East this season, and ranked second to the Phillies among the 30 big league clubs with 96 victories. But the Rays' Opening Day payroll of $72 million ranked 19th in the majors, and they finished 23rd in attendance with just north of 1.8 million fans. Barely a day goes by that the Tampa Bay players or front-office decision-makers don't hear something about their "window of opportunity'' closing.
Soon enough, Crawford will give way to Desmond Jennings as the team's resident speedster-catalyst, and manager Joe Maddon will find a way to make room for Triple-A wunderkind Jeremy Hellickson in the rotation. And the Rays will deal with the reality of homegrown stars chasing the money to bigger, more affluent markets.
"We know there are some great players on this team who may not be here next year,'' outfielder Ben Zobrist said. "We hope we don't have to lose all these guys. But you know what? If we do, the Rays organization is still going to be a winning organization. They've done it the right way here, and they're going to keep doing it the right way. This organization is committed to developing its own players and winning from the inside out.''
Short term, the math does not bode well for the Rays. In the history of division series play, 38 teams have taken a 2-0 lead in the best-of-five series. Of those 38 clubs, 25 have swept the series, and nine more have emerged victorious in four or five games.
If the Rays are going to beat the odds, they have to play more like the resourceful club that won the AL East. During the regular season, the Rays led the majors with 172 stolen bases, and tormented opponents with walks, aggressive baserunning and well-timed extra-base hits. They ranked fifth in the game with a .790 OPS with runners in scoring position.
So what happened to that club? In the first two games at the Trop, the Rays were outscored 11-1 by Texas and hit .125 (8-for-64) as a team. They're dying to put pressure on the Rangers with their running game, but they can't steal bases from the batter's box or on their way back to the dugout.
"I wish I could stand here with an explanation for why we're not doing it,'' third baseman Evan Longoria said after Game 2. "We're doing the same things and preparing the same way. Sometimes the results come and sometimes they don't. And right now they're not.''
During Friday's workout in Arlington, the Rays certainly didn't act like a team on the verge of elimination. Players stood at their lockers and recalled the big September series in the Bronx, when Tampa Bay dropped two straight to the Yankees only to outscore New York 17-5 in the next two games. It happened again in the final week, when the Rays lost two straight to Kansas City but won the final two regular-season games to capture the division title.
For what it's worth, Pena said the Rays were their typically loose, comedic, "silly'' selves on the trip to Dallas-Fort Worth. They made a point of tuning out the media reaction to their two stinkers in St. Petersburg, under the assumption that nothing good could come from hearing analysts rip them for their sorry performance.
"As soon as we walked onto the bus, 'SportsCenter' was on TV, and the first thing we did was shut it off,'' Pena said. "Every newspaper that I've been able to find has been trashed. We're oblivious to all of that, and if there's an attempt to make us pay attention to all that, we discard it. We destroy it.''
If tuning out the negative static helps, why not? Pena and Crawford might not be long for Tampa Bay, but they share the same goal as their fellow Rays. Right now it's all about prolonging the season and postponing the seemingly inevitable.

News Senators on Drugs
posted by February 22 at 13:27 PMon
I'm a fan of public-disclosure laws.
This morning, for example, public-disclosure laws allowed me to learn that just about every pharmaceutical company on the planetGlaxoSmithKline, Pfizer, Schering-Plough, Eli Lilly, Novartis, and Merckcontributed big money to state Senator Cheryl Pflug (R-5, Maple Valley) during her 2004 campaign. (At the bottom of this post I list the contributions I found.)
I looked this up because earlier this morning, in the senate health-care committee hearing, Senator Pflug was openly antagonistic and dismissive to Senator Jeanne Kohl-Welless (D-36, Seattle) no-brainer bill mandating that pharmaceutical companies publicly disclose any gifts made to health-care providers.
Meanwhile, committee chair Senator Karen Keiser (D-33, Kent), who supported the bill, was equally dismissive of Senator Pflug, reminding Pflug to ask questions rather than give speeches.
Pflug lectured the committee that as a nurse she couldnt see how this bill was helpful to the patient, that shed never seen gifts influence prescription practices, and that the bill wasnt a value add but rather was a negative add for implying that something inappropriate was going on just because the industry spends billions annually on building brand loyalty by marketing directly to doctors.
Im concerned about the implication, Pflug said, that there is a cause and effect here that is inappropriate. She wanted to know where the incriminating proof was. Theres no way to track the impact of marketing on prescriptions, she said.
Which prompted Senator Keiser to state the obvious: Well, maybe if we passed this disclosure bill
Indeed, as Senator Kohl-Welles pointed out in her testimony, the bill would not prohibit drug companies from fellating health-care providers with free meals, exotic trips, and tchotchkes like free pensit would simply make it public. (The bill sets up a website where patients could look up gifts by health-care provider and drug company.)
Senator Kohl-Welles also made the compelling point that drugs are the fastest growing component of ballooning health-care costs overall, while marketing (not R&D) is the biggest expense for drug companies. So, putting the spotlight on excessive marketing (which may act as a deterrent for such crass behavior) would help slow health-care costs in general: a bipartisan goal.
In addition to Pflug, PHARMA lobbyist Jeff Gombosky spoke against the bill. Gombosky had two points:
1) The disclosure rules would compromise proprietary information, and
2) Companies already disclose.
Senator Kohl-Welles asked him the obvious question: If the industry is already disclosing, arent they already revealing proprietary information.
Answer: Well, the industry discloses advertising information in aggregate. In other words, theres no mechanismlike the one laid out in Senator Kohl-Welless billthat allows patients to zoom in on health-care providers and drug companies in specific.
After the hearing, I asked Gombosky if that was right. He told me it was. Okay. So, the companies dont already disclose.
I also asked him what type of proprietary information would be put at risk by disclosing gifts to health-care providers. He simply said: Everybodys business plan.
Hyping her case for simple disclosure, Senator Kohl-Welles made the analogy to public-disclosure laws that govern people like herself and Gombosky. That is: The public knows whos spending what and on whom to influence public policy. Kohl-Welles reasoned that health-care costs are such a pressing public-policy issue and public-health issue, that the public should know whats going on behind the scenes.
Senator Pflug objected to the analogy: I see a benefit [to disclosing] what us and lobbyists are doing," she said. "[But] Im quite sure as a registered nurse that I cant think of any time when gifts affected prescriptions.
Given her contributors list GlaxoSmithKline ($675), GlaxoSmithKline (another $625), Pfizer ($675), Pfizer (another $625), Schering Plough ($675), Eli Lilly ($250), Eli Lilly (another $250), Eli Lilly (another $500), Novartis ($500), and Merck ($500) I took Senator Pflugs naiveté with grain of salt.

An all-star in Latin music and a common sight in lots of other genres, the mandolin is an instrument you should be proud to play - or to be taking up, if you're a beginner. And like every instrument, it takes plenty of good, old-fashioned hard work to become the best player you can be. Fortunately, you're not alone in that musical journey. In fact, with the wide variety of mandolin instruction resources available in this section, you have no shortage of options at your disposal. Whether you're just starting out or you're an experienced player taking your career to the next level, there's something here for you.
For taking your first steps into the world of mandolin, it might help to start with a look at the best-selling method books and guides. There's the Proline Play Mandolin Today! Method Book, for instance, as well as Alfred's Teach Yourself to Play Mandolin Book. Each one of these comes with a bundled CD and DVD, so you can watch interactive lessons and play along with music clips that guide you through the learning process every step of the way.
If you're a more advanced player, you may simply be looking to expand your repertoire with new songs - books like the Hal Leonard Christmas Carols for Mandolin have that covered. Or, if you'd like to take a fresh start in a new genre that you haven't tried before, it might be worth looking at entry-level resources like the Alfred Ultimate Beginner Series Bluegrass Mandolin Basics Book and CD. A book like this will contain all the fundamentals you already know, but it will also give you some insight as to how that basic knowledge applies to a new style of music you're playing for the first time.

I ditto chef kate! These cookies were so delicious. I chose to give them a more Greek shape and I served the syrup separately,so everyone could dip if they wished. I prefered them without so that was a good choice.Made for ZWT6.
Very very good cookies! I ground some pistachios and dipped the glazed cookies halfway in the nuts. My baking time was a little shorter -- about 16 minutes or so -- but all ovens are different. Thanks for a great recipe, Mike.

We consider the problem of testing whether a given system of equations over a fixed finite semigroup S has a solution. For the case where S is a monoid, we prove that the problem is computable in polynomial time when S is commutative and is the union of its subgroups but is NP-complete otherwise. When S is a monoid or a regular semigroup, we obtain similar dichotomies for the restricted version of the problem where no variable occurs on the right-hand side of each equation. We stress connections between these problems and constraint satisfaction problems. In particular, for any finite domain D and any finite set of relations Γ over D, we construct a finite semigroup SΓ such that CSP(Γ) is polynomial-time equivalent to the satifiability problem for systems of equations over SΓ.

Film This Weekend at the Movies
posted by March 29 at 16:07 PMon
What's opening this week? Besides Asia Argento's thighs, that is. Aren't I nice? I put the naughty picture in the popup for you fine folks at work. Here's the tame alternative:
In On Screen this week: Brendan Kiley on Olivier Assayas's Boarding Gate ("The film lurches between low-level action sequences and bleak eroticism, all for the sake of admiring, and pitying, Argento's sad beauty"), me on Flawless ("Giving the thieves social grievances serves only to undermine their greedthe one motive we can all understand"), Bradley Steinbacher on Run Fatboy Run ("With pedestrian direction by David Schwimmer [yes, that David Schwimmer], Run Fatboy Run works best when all focus is on Simon Pegg, whose inspired twitchings and dashes of exasperated mania are responsible for the bulk of the movie's highs"), Charles Mudede on Stop-Loss (It's "an obituary of America's leftist spirit"), and Steinbacher again on 21 ("a headache of a movie where every camera movement is overbaked and every turn of a card is accompanied by an unnecessary sound edit").
And Lindy West on the mysteriously enduring appeal of High School Musical.
Limited-run films tucked away in the calendar include the remaining National Film Festival for Talented Youth events at SIFF Cinema, the nicely shot soap operetta Lost in Beijing and the annual anniversary screenings of Rubin & Ed at the Grand Illusion, the deeply fascinating Opera Jawa and other Global Lens films at SIFF Cinema, and Live and Become at the Varsity.
For all your movie times needs, check out the redesigned calendar. I think it's even more helpful than before, but we're still tweaking things, so feed the back and back the feed.

Comfort room is so bad with very dirty shower curtain. Shower and faucet needed to be clean and to be fixed. Please check their towel,it's so dirty. Their towels has so many stain. They need to replace their towel. One more thing, staff in the hotel are very noisy and not friendly. Staff are not friendly and don't know how to smile to everyone coming and out their hotel....This is the most dirtiest hotel that I have ever stayed..

Brian Green Gossip
Brian Green gossip, latest news, photos, and video.
TIFF Style Best & Worst … so far
Written by Sasha The fashion extravaganza has begun and it's time for my weekend fashion round up! Diving straight into it, my vote for most fashionable couple! There were a lot of Hollywood duos out this weekend—Ben and Jen, Jon Hamm and long time lady Jennifer, and Marion and Guillaume. Full Story
Bill Murray memories & please don't be mad at me
I don't hate on Megan Fox as hard as other people. She says dumb sh-t. She has a weird pretend face. She's crazy and temperamental. But I have more time for Megan than, say, Shelfy. Which doesn't mean I love her, of course not. Just that, well, now and again I am capable of saying nice things about her. Full Story
I prefer Silver…just barely
Written by Jacek Thought it would be appropriate if I wrote about John Mayer's appearance on the Today show earlier this morning. If you missed the poll a couple of weeks ago, it was suggested after the Smut Soiree that I looked like John Mayer. Full Story
Megan Fox, The Hunger Games, and where to eat
Last Wednesday, the night I ate those bad clams and almost lost the will to live, I was out for dinner with someone who lives in LA who was telling a story about eating at the Cheesecake Factory and I was like –there's food at the Cheesecake Factory? And apparently it's a proper restaurant, like any chain restaurant, in addition to sh-tloads of cheesecake. Full Story
Marriage Analysis
So their previous engagement lasted over 2 years and ended up broken. This engagement was a week long and culminated in a wedding. As you know, Megan Fox married Brian Austin Green in Hawaii, confirmed by their reps. I find it surprising that it's the first for both. Shall we do what we do? Shall we "psychologise" their marriage? Of course. Full Story
Unemployed and no photoshop
Megan Fox spent the long weekend with Brian Austin Green in Hawaii not appearing to be too broken up about being replaced by that hot British model in Transformers 3. Fox will soon start heavy promotion for Jonah Hex. And not a bad way to kick it off given that the movie is expected to appeal primarily to the male demographic. Full Story
Megan Fox's pretend face
Megan Fox has been working. She has not been famewhoring, she has not been pap-baiting, and as far as celebrity famewhoring pap-baiting offenders go, she's actually not the worst. You'll note, it is possible to go long stretches without seeing Megan Fox "candids". And it's IMpossible to go long stretches without seeing Alba/Biel "candids". Full Story
Does it seem...
Like Adrien Brody is always, kinda, posing? Or is his body just made that way? With a lean or something. Adrien and Keanu Reeves were at the 2010 Toyota Pro Celebrity Race Press Day this afternoon along with Patrick Dempsey, Christian Slater, and Brian Austin Green, among others. As you can see, they were all photographed together and only Adrien seems like he's trying to turn it into a Vogue editorial. Full Story
Her kind of man
Megan Fox covers the new issue of Elle and reveals that she's not interested in guys in their 20s because she's too articulate for them: "Robert Pattinson and Zac – they're just too pretty with the big hair and the suits. And Rob is, what, 22? Zac is 21? That's a joke. Full Story
Toxic tweaky love
Megan Fox and Brian Austin Green were in Santa Monica together yesterday dining together at the Ivy by the Shore obviously unable to stay apart. Or maybe she hasn't found anyone better to launch off to yet. Unfortunately the night after they hung out Robert Pattinson took off for Vancouver. She'll have to wait for weekend visits. Full Story
Because John Mayer didn't call
Megan Fox was spotted out and about furniture shopping with not so ex Brian Austin Green today before heading back to his place. So are they or aren't they? Who the f-ck cares? The point is she's NOT with John Mayer. Because he didn't take advantage and move in there. And now Jennifer Aniston is back in LA. Full Story

Bickley Hen and Chickens 1836
Plan of Hen and Chickens in New Street with stables and coach yard
The Hen and Chickens was a coaching inn at the lower end of New Street. There is a small plan of the inn, and a detailed plan for the stableyard, including such necessary facilities as a Dung Pit for the quantities of manure produced.
The 'Free School' next door is King Edward's School (for boys). In 1836 it was being rebuilt; the third school building on this site, designed by Sir Charles Barry who later designed the Houses of Parliament. It was magnificent, and Birmingham was proud of it - although it cost far more than the original estimate. In 1936 it moved to a site near Birmingham University in Edgbaston.
This plan of the Hen and Chickens dates from the last year when there was no railway in Birmingham. In 1837 the line between Birmingham and the north-west was completed; in 1839 the line between Birmingham and London opened. At first the Birmingham terminus was at Duddeston on the edge of the town centre, then at Curzon Street. Travellers seeking accommodation in the centre would still use coaches or carriages; as would visitors planning to go to other parts of Birmingham, towns in the Black Country and the Midlands generally. New Street Station was built on land behind the Hen and Chickens and King Edward's School in 1854, see the map New Street to Worcester Wharf 1860
The land at the southern end - top - of this map was taken for the station; fewer stables would have been needed once the station was there.

Cancer Health Center
Genetics of Colorectal Cancer (PDQ®): Genetics - Health Professional Information [NCI] - Major Genetic Syndromes
Table 10. Clinical Practice Guidelines for Colon Surveillance of BiallelicMYH-Associated Polyposis (MAP) continued...
DNA MMR genes
LS is caused by mutation of one of several DNA MMR genes.[314,315,316,317,318,319,320] The function of these genes is to maintain the fidelity of DNA during replication. The genes that have been implicated in LS include MSH2 (mutS homolog 2) on chromosome 2p22-21;[317,318]MLH1 (mutL homolog 1) on chromosome 3p21;[316]PMS2 (postmeiotic segregation 2) on chromosome 7p22;[320,321] and MSH6 on chromosome 2p16. The genes MSH2 and MLH1 are thought to account for most mutations of the MMR genes found in LS families.[322,323]
A variety of LS-associated mutations in MSH2 and MLH1 have been identified. These include founder mutations in the Ashkenazi Jewish, Finnish, Portuguese, and German American populations.[309,323,324,325,326,327] The wide distribution of the mutations in the two genes preclude simple gene testing assays (i.e., assays that would identify only a few mutations). Commercial testing is available to search for mutations in MSH2, MLH1, MSH6, and most recently for PMS2. Clinical and cost considerations may guide testing strategies. Most commercial genetic testing for MSH2 and MLH1 is done by gene sequencing. Because sequencing fails to detect genomic deletions that are relatively common in LS, methods such as Southern blot or MLPA,[328] for detection of large deletions, are being used.[329] (Refer to the Genetic/molecular testing for LS section of this summary for more information about issues to be considered in testing for these mutations.)
MLH1 and MSH2 make up the majority of LS mutations. Up to 50% of mutation-positive LS families harbor an MLH1 mutation, with some geographic variation.[330]
Genotype-phenotype correlations
MLH1 mutations have been associated with the entire spectrum of malignancies associated with LS.[330] The lifetime risk of CRC in MLH1 mutation carriers is estimated to be 41% to 68%.[225,230,331] The lifetime risk of endometrial cancer is estimated to be approximately 40%.[3,230] Muir-Torre syndrome is less commonly associated with MLH1 mutations than are MSH2 mutations.[256]

Brad Nesom
Harmon Killebrew, the Hall-of-Fame hitter who played for the Minnesota Twins, told a story that makes the point well: "My father used to play with my brother and me in the yard. One time, my mother came out the screen door and said, 'You're tearing up the grass.' My dad lovingly replied, 'Sweetheart, we're not raising grass. We're raising boys.'"
Psalm 127 tells us that "children are a reward from [the Lord].... Blessed is the man whose quiver is full of them." We should continually thank God for the privilege of being a father and for the great blessings our children bring to our lives. Sure, they require a lot of our time, energy and money, but they're well worth it.

So far every randomly generated dungeon I have entered I have been rewarded with a golden chest at the end of the rainbow. Are there ever random dungeons (not including those one room dungeons) that have nothing at the end?
There are a couple - usually one-level dungeons - but even those tend to have Bloody Chests. Resplendent Chests appear seemingly without fail on optional dungeons with two floors.
Every single (non-quest-related) dungeon I have come across has had some sort of reward for going in, whether it be a chest, boss monsters loot, champion monsters loot, or treasure goblin (usually a combination of these) not to mention the exp, gold and regular loot off the dungeon monsters.
I'd say dungeons are definitely worth exploring, assuming they are near your character level.

Devil Without A Cause Lyrics
You knew that I was coming 'cause you heard my name
But you don't know my game and never felt my pain
Can't read my brain but you read my lips
And got scared when you heard that I was coming with hits
Now don't even trip, be a man instead
Give thanks I'm alive when I should be dead
I'm in the red 'cause my mind's distortin'
People claimin that they know me, but they only know a portion
I'm a move mountains and touch the sun
Don't get scared now, you knew this day would come
So hold your bids, all bets are closed
And f**k all you hoes
'Cause it's been a long time comin'
But I finally broke like an egg yolk, I ain't no joke
Like some uncut dope motherf**ker, Kid Rock's to blame
Same game, same name, ain't a damn thing changed
No sell-out, I ain't no hoe
f**k the radio comin' from the R O M E O
Watch me throw like a fist of rage
Self made and paid and sawed off twelve gauges
Up that ass for the nine eight
(Nine eight)
Never fake, shake, straight from the Great Lakes
Seven years on wax comin' correct
Flat out you diss me punk, that's when I pull a strap out
And I get to buck, buck, bucking a f**k, f**k, f**king your hoes
'Cause they know who's runnin' this shit, top dog, I'm the C E O
Role model, your motherf**king H E R O
My motto, 'Be cool, keep pimpin''
Don't sleep, we roll deep in a Lincoln
Four Vogues on a hundred spokes
We bust Biltmore Beavers and Top Dog Coats
We float like butterflies, sting like queen bees
Strapped with A-K's straight from the Chinese
What the f**k's goin' on in the D
Bunch of white boys pimpin' like the K I D
And it's all good I got love for my honkeys
We roll thick kick ass like donkeys
Anybody f**k's with you and I'm gonna mack 'em
Devil without a cause, I'm going platinum
I'm going platinum
I'm going platinum
We're going platinum
Devil without a cause, I'm going platinum
Uh, devil, devil
Yeah, we come to party, so get down everybody
(Come on)
Yeah, we come to party
I went from St. Claire Shores and drink specials at Winners
To New York City and 700 dollar dinners
From hangin' with sinners and second hand cheap sex
To gettin' much respect from top record exec's
The cool Kid's comin' up to call you out
So shut up now or put my balls in your mouth
Bet that ass hoss I ain't forgot
When I was tossed in the dime, baby left to rot
Used to call me dummy when my nose was f**king runny
Now my f**kin' bunnies gettin' f**kin' Matchbox 20 money
Motherf**kers want to claim their down
But when I was broke and down I never seen them around
All the shit we talked, all the shit we dreamed
I did it without you got a brand new team
No triple beams it seems like a movie
Bought two cribs, droptop and jacuzzi
No more fluzzies, only high class hoes
Couple when it rains and a few when it snows
A brand new nose to go along with my habit
And a garden hose made out of 24 karat
Bought a couple parrots that like to squawk
And they sound like you and all the shit you talk
Step inside my shoes, you couldn't fill 'em, doc
You're too old to kid, too soft to rock
Already did what most love shout
Seven years on wax and I still ain't sold out
And there ain't no doubt in my mind
That I'm gonna stomp all over you, test of time
I'm go platinum
I'm go platinum
I'm go platinum
We're going platinum
Devil without a cause, I'm going platinum
Uh, devil, come on devil, uh, uh devil
Straight out of the streets of Taylor
Three foot high, ready to get fly, Joe C
I'm the J O E to the C, hoe
Call me Joe C, got more game than Coleco
I'm a freak hoe, call me sick
Three foot nine with a ten foot dick
The ladies pick, I'm a crazy hick
And rake through kind like a bum through wine
It's my time so I'm gonna shine like lead
Old as piss, but small as ass
Watch me pass smoke some hash
You're raking grass while I'm raking cash
High-ass voice like Aaron Neville
And I'm down with the devil
Say we like to party, rock the party
We like to party, rock the party
We like to party, rock the party
We like to party, rock the party
You like to party, rock the party
We like to party, rock the party
You like to party, rock the party
Devil without a cause, I'm going platinum
Uh, uh, come on, uh, uh, uh, uh

Video Industry News Video Company News Technology Industry News Technology Company News Novelty Industry News Novelty Company News Gay Industry News Gay Company News Legal Industry News All Company News
Released: Feb 01st, 1993
Running Time: 84
Director: Rock Hardson
Company: Filmco
Cast: Don Fernando, Marissa Malibu, Sierra (I), Meekah, Saki, T.T. Boy, Leanna Foxxx, Peter North, Gretta, Mike Homer
Critical Rating: AAA
Genre: Feature
Gretta, the old gypsy fortune teller, is stuck in an old body. Unlike myself, who's stuck with an old body. Carnival barker Mike Horner lures patrons into the House of Mirrors and the House of Wax, and admonishes them not to cross over the ropes. Quicker than you can say "don't throw me into the briar patch," Leanna Foxxx, secretary Sierra and lawyer Peter North are in the mirrored rooms and want to get a closer look. Voila! Everybody's naked and screwing. Likewise, when T.T. Boy and Don Fernando enter the wax museum and come across Saki as Aphrodite, one push from Mike and they're over the ropes with Saki alive and kicking (or should I say humping?). Somehow, Peter becomes a Count Dracula exhibit, which comes to life when wife Marissa Malibu crosses over. And even more inexpicably, the gypsy crone takes over Marissa's body because of this.
As confusing as this all sounds, it's pretty well done with stock footage blended in for a carnival atmosphere. The inexpensive sets also manage to convey the idea of a sleazy sideshow. Sexual highlight has got to be the aforementioned Foxxx/Sierra/North bout with the natural Sierra and the inflated Leanna providing a nice contrast to each other. Filmco doesn't have lots of releases each year, so when they do produce a feature, attention must be paid. Stock up.

How To Help Yvrose Jean Baptiste
The latest word from Yvrose Jean Baptiste — the small-time Haitian wholesaler who we talked to in a recent podcast — is that she hasn't been able to work out a solution with her lender yet. She's trying to.
Several people have asked how they might help her.
Yvrose is setting up an account at Fonkoze, a well-regarded microcredit financial institution in Haiti.
Folks can send checks payable to Yvrose Jean Baptiste to:
Fonkoze USA
50 F Street NW, Suite 810
Washington, DC 20001
That money will be deposited directly into Yvrose's account and only she will have access to it. We'll make sure of that. We'll also be following up with Yrose in the coming weeks so stay tuned for an update.

Very nice, I recommend. Lovely spended time in Budapest.
We were very pleased with our stay at Cibere. Arrival and departure were handled efficiently and the apartment was more than adequate for our needs. We particularly enjoyed the balcony overlooking the river and the central location was excellent. Bianka was very accommodating in arranging the airport transfers. The only downside was the loft sleeping area ceiling height which was not quite high enough to fully accommodate my 6'1" height.
a very nice Apartment, lots of Space. funktionel with dishwasher and microwawe.
only one thing to mention, no possible way to select different heat ind different rooms. Couldt have been nice to have more heat ind livingroom than ind sleeping room. But all in all, the most fantastisk place to live in Budapest. close to everything Down town and metro. Very queit in night, peacefull and we had a lovely holyday.
It's a very central Apartment. It was very clean and I would come back! Thank you very much for everything. A very nice City and the perfect place to be.
Really very good cozy apartertment! Very pleasant owner) walk to parlament - nerly 10 minutes. Many good, not expensive cafe near.
Great apartment, clean, having everything for living. Nice neighborhood, apartment located near Vaci street, train, metro and bus station. Host is very pleasant, willing to help us about all things that we need. Also available all day for any information.
We had great time in Budapest, and apartment is surely top recommendation.
El apartamento esta situado en un sitio muy centrico, estaba limpio y disponia de todo, desde plancha a tostadora, lo unico deberian explicar mejor el asceso, pues se entra a traves de un pasadizo y LA PRIMERA VEZ TARDAS EN DAR CON EL, volveremos a usar Windu en nuestro proximo viaje.
Ottima posizione il centro è facilmente raggiungibile a piedi. A 4 minuti della stazione Nyugati (metro blu 3). Casa Pulitissima e confortevole. Ottima accoglienza ben organizzata soprattutto per il nostro arrivo dopo le 01:00 di notte. Consigliatissima.
Ausgesprochen gute Lage am Rand des jüdischen Viertels. Perfekt für Erkundungen zu Fuß, mitten im Zentrum, aber dennoch völlig ruhig. Die Whg. bietet 2 Personen alles, was sie brauchen. Freundliches Management, was zuverlässig und schnell alle unsere Wünsche erfüllte. Absolut empfehlenswert!

This paper presents a time-domain technique to generate command inputs for the reduction of residual vibrations in mechanical systems. The technique is based on the generation of motion profiles with zero-crossing points in their frequency spectra at the system resonances in the same way as the zero-vibration (ZV) command generation methods. By including an appropriate negative exponential time function, which contains the system natural frequency and the damping ratio, the resultant input can be applied to damped systems with a result of zero residual vibration. The signals synthesized can be used as a generic physical magnitude in vibratory systems. However, they were particularized for mechanical systems and engineering metrics were used. Compared to other ZV methods, for a short duration input range, the signals obtained have better performance in terms of minimum-acceleration-switch shape which is translated to a smoother motion profile. The development includes the application to single-mode and multiple-mode mechanical systems and the possibility of handling two functional requirements or constraints in the desired application. The analyzed systems are those that can be modeled as discrete linear ones with several vibratory degrees of freedom and can be described with constant parameter motion equations. Experimental results show the efficacy of the method developed with its application to a damped pendulum test platform.

So I'm waiting to see if I made the standby list for the flight to Seattle yesterday, reading the latest copy of Esquire. A guy comes up and says, "Excuse me, do you work at Microsoft? I'd like to show you something cool."
Matt Katzer runs an ISV called KAM Industries. They build software for the REALLY big railroads - railroad yard automation, engine automation, that kind of thing. Software that makes really big, heavy stuff move when and where it's supposed to. Matt told me that they also do similar stuff for model railroads – HO, N, and O-scale stuff. They can completely automate, and simulate very complex setups.
If that weren't cool enough, Matt has built all this on top of Microsoft technologies - .NET Framework, the Compact Framework, WMI (okay, not REALLY MS tech, but it counts), XML, Windows Server 2003, etc.
There's a big model railroad show in Seattle this summer (I think Matt said mid-July), and I'll definitely be there…

My daughter grandson and I will be coming to New York in December. Staying near times square My grandson is only 6 and we are really keen for him not to miss the magic of Christmas. Lunch is a really big thing in our family and we are looking for a place that's warm traditional and friendly to eat Christmas lunch. Can any NewYorkers help us with this.
Thanks heaps guys. Lv from Oz

Hello everyone I'm Jacob Wagschal from Monsey, NY and I needed advice on where to get good kosher food for takeout. I'm on the run a lot so fast kosher food that I can takeout is what I'm looking for.
Hi. My hubby and I are travelling to New York for the first time in October and are planning on staying for 4 nights, 5 days, during the week. We are looking for hotel accommodation which is central, affordable, clean/modern has free wifi and maybe a breakfast included in their stay package (like an executive 3 star, if that's possible, hahahaha) - we don't want to pay extortionate amounts on accommodation (as the cash will be used for shopping instead!) but yet would like comfortable, clean accommodation where we can get a little peace and quiet during our down time - I'm not asking for much, am I? any suggestions or personal recommendations would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
I'd like to go to Roosevelt Island mostly because of the tram but partly because of the lighthouse. Is it true that there's a shuttle bus that goes around the island? I read there was, and it charges a quarter. Does it go all the way to the tip of the island where the lighthouse is? Does it go close to the tram stop and close to the subway stop? About how far of a walk would it be from the closest subway stop in Manhattan to the tram - just a block or two, or more?
To walk across Brooklyn Bridge, about how far do you need to walk to get to the entrance for the bridge walkway from the closest subway station?
Lastly, if anyone has stayed at either the Pod 39 or Pod 51 or preferably both, is one better than the other in terms of proximity to a subway station? It looks like Pod 51 on 51st Street (I think) is closer, but only line 6 runs from that close station, meaning we'd likely have to transfer once or twice to get to most places we want to go. Some transfer tunnels in some subways are pretty long, so I'm wondering if it's worth choosing one Pod hotel over the other simply because one is closer to a station than the other. Pod 39 has Grand Central Terminal near by, which I gather is pretty useful, but it's at least a few blocks farther away than Pod 51 is to the subway stop up there. We're older folks and can't do as much walking around as we used to, thus the questions.
Hi, my son is visiting New York this week and will then travel on by train (amlec) to Boston

Any suggestions of how to manage the week?
Suggestions about New Year's Eve at Times Square?

I just stumbled upon the excellent diction tool. It's great to check the writing style of my LaTeX files, the problem is, however, I can only use it through the command line. The output, while being useful is very difficult to sift through. Is there a GUI for the diction tool? Even an editor or syntax highlighting support in the form of a text editor would be useful.
The only "GUI" for diction, I'm aware of is GNU Emacs. However Emacs is a fully-fledged editor which can do quite lots of things. You'll need a file called diction.el. Copy this to the subdirectory

Let me pause here to underscore a point. Currently, the original SSN holder never receives notice when a mismatch has occurred. And, quite frankly, I do not have the assurances that the IRS is requiring much of the employer to correct or verify the submission. That is not acceptable. In this day and age, when at a click of a mouse, someone can apply for credit cards, mortgages, or even car loans, there is no excuse why SSN holders are left in the dark.
One can only imagine that if this simple notification step was taken in the case of little Tyler Lybbert or the Noble family that years of laborious efforts and countless hours of notifying credit bureaus, banks, and other authorities, could have been greatly reduced if not avoided all together.
To make matters more confusing in this area of the law, the Supreme Court has more or less tied the hands of prosecutors in going after these thieves and those who involved in so-called document mills. The case of Flores-Figueroa v. United States undermined prosecutors' longstanding practice of using the aggravated identity theft statute by requiring them to also prove that a defendant knew that he or she was using a real person's identity information, as opposed to counterfeit information not connected to an actual person.
To clarify the Criminal Code and provide our prosecutors with the latitude they need to pursue these cases, my bill makes clear that defendants who possess or otherwise use identity information not their own, without lawful authority, and in the commission of another felony is still punishable for aggravated identity fraud, regardless of the defendants' "knowledge" of the victim.
Finally, my bill's identity theft would require the Secretary of the Treasury, the Chairman of the FTC, and the Commissioner of Social Security to conduct a study to determine the most feasible and cost-effective ways to protect the credit worthiness of individuals, especially that of children.
Mexican Cartel drug violence has been placed front and center by the media and members of this body. Some of my fellow colleagues have called for more resources directed to this problem. As additional federal law enforcement personnel and military units continue to be deployed to the southwest border the focus has been on weapons, drug interdiction and bulk cash smuggling. While I recognize the importance of these border enforcement activities, too little attention is being paid to outdoor marijuana cultivation by Mexican drug trafficking organizations.
Outdoor marijuana cultivation by Mexican drug trafficking organizations is causing increasing environmental damage, especially on publicly owned lands. From 2004-2009 more than 11 million marijuana plants have been eradicated from federal public lands. Outdoor marijuana cultivation is the chief source of revenue for Mexican drug trafficking organizations.
Growing marijuana in the U.S. saves traffickers the risk and expense of smuggling their product across the border and allows gangs to produce their crops closer to local markets. Illegal alien workers are smuggled in from Mexico to serve as laborers and provide security to the grow plots. Mexican gang plots can often be distinguished from those of domestic-based growers based on their plant volume and security measures. Many of the plots are encircled with crude explosives and are patrolled by armed illegal aliens providing security for the crop.
In my home state of Utah, the Drug Enforcement Administration and local law enforcement have seized more than 110,000 marijuana plants this year. Each plant can yield one pound of marijuana with a street value of $1,000. These remote plots were on federal land and nestled under the cover in a national forest or hidden high in the rugged-yet-fertile tracts of federal land. All of the sites were far from the eyes of law enforcement, where growers can take the time needed to grow far more potent marijuana. Growers of these fields have even created irrigation systems to disrupt or divert water sources. They even use illegal fertilizers that damage the environment and the local eco-system.
