'Secretariat' star Diane Lane goes from super-horse to 'Superman'
It's hard to believe, but the always stunning Diane Lane has reached that age where she can play a mother to a an actor or actress in their mid-20s. Proving that point, Warner Bros. announced this evening that the Oscar nominated actress will join the cast of Zack Snyder's new untitled "Superman" film as Martha Kent, Clark Kent's adoptive mother.
In a statement issued by the studio, Snyder said, "This was a very important piece of casting for me because Martha Kent is the woman whose values helped shape the man we know as Superman. We are thrilled to have Diane in the role because she can convey the wisdom and the wonder of a woman whose son has powers beyond her imagination."
The 46-year-old actress is now the only confirmed cast member besides Henry Cavill who will play Kent, aka Kal-El aka Superman. Reports have surfaced that Kevin Costner is on board to possibly play Martha's husband Jonathan, but only Lane and Cavill were confirmed in the studio's press release.
Lane is best known for her roles in "Unfaithful," "Under the Tuscan Sun," "The Cotton Club" and the landmark TV mini-series "Lonesome Dove." She recently starred in "Secretariat" and will next be seen in HBO's "Cinema Verite" alongside James Gandolfini and Tim Robbins.
The new "Superman" will be produced by Charles Roven, Emma Thomas, Christopher Nolan and Deborah Snyder. The screenplay is by David S. Goyer based on a story by Goyer and Nolan. Production is expected to begin this summer for a December 2012 release.

Seeing that the decline in Rhino poaching has not abated even slightly since I posted this, I thought I would share this image again on my blog today. It is utterly disgusting what is happening to our African Rhino population with several hundred being killed each and every year. Despite numerous efforts to curb the poaching nothing seems to be working.
This photo moves me so much because I am quite certain if nothing SERIOUS is done within the next few years this is the kind of photo many of you will be showing your children one day saying " we used to have hundreds of these roaming the plains of Africa" … of course your kids will look at you like you are mad.
This photo of the lone rhino which I took in Kenya and which won the Fujifilm Getaway Wildlife Awards Animal Category in 2011 has proven to be very popular. I have sold quite a number of large canvas prints of this image all delivered to clients who were absolutely gob-smacked with the image.

Comic-Con Trailers: The Best of the Best, Ranked
Film, TV
I spent some time in May at Book Expo America, the annual trade show for the retail book business, checking out the graphic novel offerings. BEA is light duty for a comics blogger, as graphic novels are a tiny part of the retail book universe, but it's a good way to get an advance look at the books that publishers are promoting for this summer and fall, as well as what they think will have appeal for mainstream bookstores.
Here are a half-dozen books you're likely to hear about in the coming months:
Awards | Jamie Smart's Fish-Head Steve has been shortlisted for the Roald Dahl Funny Prize, the first comic to make the list in the six-year history of the award. The prize recognizes the funniest book for children in two age categories, and the final judges will be 200 children from schools around the United Kingdom. [Forbidden Planet]
Comics | Eric Margolis reports on the difficulties U.K. creator Darren Cullen had in getting his Kickstarter-funded comic (Don't) Join the Army printed. The format was unusual, so some shops simply couldn't do it, but printers also took exception to the comic itself, which was an "anti-recruitment leaflet" satirizing the British army. [Comic Book Legal Defense Fund]
In case you didn't notice, Comic-Con International happened last weekend. As always, it was an epic affair with tons of announcements, stunts and surprises. Amid cannons firing, actors dressing up as themselves, and big movie plans, there were also a good number of genuine surprises from comics.
Usually I end up picking a winner of Comic-Con, but after Dynamite Entertainment flooded the air waves with announcements the days before the event, no one else seemed to stand out as the clear winner. It's not that everyone slacked off, however: They brought a good variety of interesting and exciting projects, and a number of standout announcements made my ears perk up. So instead of declaring a winner, I'm going to run down my Top 6 Comic-Con surprises in comics.
Before I start, though, two publishers deserve a little recognition for serious contenders for the Comic-Con crown. Top Shelf Productions classed up the joint by bringing in Congressman John Lewis for the debut of his graphic novel, March: Book One with artist Nate Powell and co-writer Andrew Aydin. I have little doubt this trilogy will end up being a historic release with profound benefits for schools, libraries and organizations looking for a powerful teaching tool and first=person account of the Civil Rights Movement and non-violent resistance. Plus, come on, photos of Lewis meeting Neil deGrasse Tyson and Lou Ferrigno? Everybody else, just pack it up. Maybe not as much of a milestone, but IDW Publishing also deserves a nod for the pure quantity and variety of good-looking books announced.
OK, on with my list:
Happy Memorial Day, Americans, and welcome to another edition of What Are You Reading? Our special guest today is Mark Andrew Smith, writer of Gladstone's School for World Conquerors, Amazing Joy Buzzards, The New Brighton Archeological Society and Sullivan's Sluggers, which is currently available to order via Kickstarter.

Rafael Borras, former undersecretary for management at the Department of Homeland Security, has joined global management consultancy A.T. Kearney as a senior adviser, according to a company statement released on April 23.
In his new role, Borras will identify commercial best practices in organizational transformation, IT, acquisition and financial management that can be applied in the public sector.
Before his departure from DHS in February, Borras had been at the agency since his 2010 appointment by President Barack Obama. From September to December 2013, Borras served as acting deputy secretary.
As DHS' designated chief management officer, he oversaw management of the department's nearly $60 billion budget, and as chief acquisition officer, he administered approximately $19 billion in annual procurements.
"I look forward to helping A.T. Kearney deliver the best commercial practices to the public sector and enabling governments everywhere to deliver services in the most efficient and sustainable way to the benefit of their citizens," Borras said in the statement.

I'll have a few hous to visit Montreux/Lousanne, not more than 1/2 day. What are the best sights to visit? I'll go there from Lauterbrunnen, 3 hours traind ride there and have to go back in the evening.
I'm thinking of arriving to Montreux railway station, then walk to Freddie Mercury's memorial, then hop on the bus to Chillon Castle. How much time will it take to explore the castle? Next I think of going to Lousanne, not to visit any museum but just to walk and watch the beautiful city around me. What can you advice?
Also I heard of roman ruins in Lousanne, I searched for it but found another town far away. Are the ruins near Lousanne? If so, how can I get there?

How can I get diff to show only added and deleted lines? If diff can't do it, what tool can?
Another way to look at it:
Show lines that only exist in file a: (i.e. what was deleted from a)
Show lines that only exist in file b: (i.e. what was added to b)
Show lines that only exist in one file or the other: (but not both)
(Warning: If file
NOTE: Both files need to be sorted for "comm" to work properly. If they aren't already sorted, you should sort them:
If the files are extremely long, this may be quite a burden as it requires an extra copy and therefore twice as much disk space.
These columns are suppressable with
And if you just want the unique lines and don't care which file they're in:
As the man page says, the files must be sorted beforehand.
Visual comparison tools fit two files together so that a segment with the same number of lines but differing content will be considered a changed segment. Completely new lines between matching segments are considered added segments.
This is also how sdiff command-line tool works, which shows a side-by-side comparison of two files in a terminal. Changed lines are separated by | character. If a line exists only in file A, < is used as the separator character. If a line exists only in file B, > is used as the separator. If you don't have < and > characters in the files, you can use this to show only added lines:
That's what diff does by default... Maybe you need to add some flags to ignore whitespace?
should ignore blank lines and different numbers of spaces.
Thanks senarvi, your solution (not voted for) actually gave me EXACTLY what I wanted after looking for ages on a ton of pages.
Using your answer, here is what I came up with to get the list of things changed/added/deleted. The example uses 2 versions of the /etc/passwd file and prints out the username for the relevant records.
The difficulty for any attempt at doing what you're looking for is how to define what constitutes a line that has changed versus a deleted one followed by an added one. Also what to do when lines are added, deleted and changed adjacent to each other.
To show additions and deletions without context, line numbers, +, -, <, > ! etc, you can use diff like this:
For example, given two files:
The following command will show lines either removed from a or added to b:
This slightly different command will show lines removed from a.txt:
Finally, this command will show lines added to a.txt

SELMA, Ala. (AP) - A marina harmed by an oil spill last week is clean.
An oil leak from a tugboat led to the temporary closure of City
Marina on Aug. 1.
Officials with the Alabama Department of Environmental Management say the marina was partially reopened between 2 and 2:30 p.m. Sunday, when one of the marina's boat ramps was reopened.
Officials say the marina also passed a Monday checkup, performed to ensure the cleanup was complete, and should be clear for the weekend.
Dallas County EMA Director Rhonda Abbott says officials don't
know how much oil the tugboat spilled into the Alabama River.
The spill happened when a tugboat headed for the Dixie Pellet
plant 12 miles away trailed oil and sludge on its way upriver.

India Signals Readiness to Defend Rupee as Growth Slows: Economy
India signaled it's prepared to act against excessive declines in the rupee, as Asia's worst performing currency this year threatens to exacerbate the fastest inflation among so-called BRIC nations and hurt growth.
The recent sharp depreciation isn't a sign of "helplessness in dealing with the kind of global turbulence we are seeing," central bank Deputy Governor Subir Gokarn said in Mumbai on Dec. 3. "We do have the instruments to do this in the form of strategic capital controls, which can be used to enhance the supply of foreign exchange."
The rupee has fallen 13 percent this year as investors sold emerging-market assets on concern Europe's debt crisis will lead to a global recession. India's economy expanded last quarter at the slowest pace since 2009 after the central bank raised interest rates by a record to tame inflation, while Prime Minister Manmohan Singh's efforts to stimulate growth were hamstrung by corruption scandals that have stalled legislation.
"The central bank is trying to manage expectations right now having given an impression that they don't have the tools to control rupee weakness earlier," said Ramya Suryanarayanan, an economist at DBS Group Holdings Ltd. in Singapore. While it would be pointless to fight the trend, "there are negative consequences, in the short term, given the speed of the fall."
Asian currencies from Indonesia to India have fallen this year as policy makers grapple with Europe's protracted sovereign-debt crisis, which has hurt demand for the region's exports and prompted nations from Australia to Thailand to lower borrowing costs.
China Services
Asian stocks rose for a sixth day today, with Asia's benchmark index headed for its longest winning streak since Oct. 13, as Italy took steps to trim its debt before European Union leaders meet this week to tackle the region's crisis. The MSCI Asia Pacific Index advanced 0.4 percent. Gains were limited as Chinese stocks fell, with the Shanghai Composite Index sliding 1.2 percent.
A China purchasing managers' index for non-manufacturing industries fell to 49.7 in November from 57.7 the previous month, the China Federation of Logistics and Purchasing said on its website Dec. 3. A reading above 50 indicates expansion. A services index issued by HSBC Holdings Plc and Markit Economics today fell to 52.5, the lowest level in three months.
Australia Rates
Elsewhere in the Asia-Pacific region, reports today showed Australian business profits advanced 4.8 percent in the third quarter from the previous three months, more than economists estimated, while inventories declined, as high commodity prices boosted earnings in mining. New Zealand construction fell to the lowest level in more than 10 years in the third quarter and the Treasury lowered its growth outlook.
Taiwan's inflation rate eased to the lowest level in more than a year in November, while a Purchasing Managers' Index released by HSBC and Markit showed India's services industry expanded at the quickest pace in three months.
Australia's central bank will probably make its first consecutive interest-rate cuts this quarter since the global recession that followed Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc.'s 2008 collapse. Traders are betting on an 88 percent chance that Reserve Bank Governor Glenn Stevens, who lowered borrowing costs last month for the first time in 2 1/2 years, will reduce the key rate tomorrow by a quarter percentage point to 4.25 percent, a Credit Suisse Group AG Index shows.
Service industries in the U.S. probably expanded in November at the fastest pace in six months, economists said before an Institute for Supply Management's non-manufacturing index report today. Other reports may show factory orders fell in October.
India's Signal
Russia's inflation rate probably fell last month to the lowest since September 2010, a Bloomberg survey showed ahead of data today or tomorrow. Euro zone retail sales, and Singapore's PMI are also due today.
In India, where the government said last week it has limited scope for a boost in spending to create demand and spur growth, the Reserve Bank of India signaled in October it's nearing the end of monetary tightening, provided inflation slows.
India's benchmark wholesale-price inflation was 9.73 percent in October. By comparison, consumer prices rose 7 percent in Brazil, 5.5 percent in China and 7.2 percent in Russia in the same month. The central bank has boosted the repurchase rate by 375 basis points in 13 moves since the start of 2010, the fastest round of increases since the monetary authority was established in 1935, according to Bloomberg data.
'Warning Shot'
The rupee's decline is adding to concern Indian policy makers will be unable to cool inflation which has stayed above 9 percent all year. The currency weakened 6.7 percent against the dollar last month, the biggest decline in almost two decades, touching a record low of 52.4550 on Nov. 25.
Foreign-exchange reserves fell $4.3 billion to $304.4 billion in the week ended Nov. 25, the central bank said in a statement on Dec. 2, a sign it sold dollars to stem losses. Intervention isn't "an easy judgment" and the RBI has no target exchange rate for the rupee, Gokarn said.
"He's firing a warning shot," rather than committing the central bank to a series of capital controls, said Robert Prior-Wandesforde, Singapore-based head of India and Southeast Asia economics at Credit Suisse Group AG. "That hasn't been their policy and would go against their stated aims. It may be designed to scare the speculators."
Any measures are more likely to be designed to encourage greater inflows rather than to discourage outflows, he said. India needs to do more to keep the rupee from weakening further "given the inflationary issues," he said.
Finding a Balance
"Our broad objective is to find a balance between the short-term risk of the rupee spiraling downwards and the medium-term risk of a loss of confidence in our ability to meet our external obligations," Gokarn said.
On Nov. 23, the central bank raised the limit on interest rates paid by the nation's companies on some maturing overseas borrowings and also relaxed rules for currency swaps in an attempt to stem the rupee's slide. The currency rose 0.6 percent the following day.
There are already restrictions on debt inflows applying to quantity, tenor and pricing, Gokarn said.
"Short-term debt is the least preferred, because it's seen as most vulnerable to sudden reversals, while long-term, despite risk concerns, is seen as contributing to the resource flow into infrastructure," he said. "These controls on debt might be viewed as structural or strategic capital controls."
India will consider imposing restrictions on overseas investment by local companies and curbing pre-payments of foreign loans if the rupee weakens further, the Economic Times reported today, citing a finance ministry official with knowledge of the meeting's agenda. The measures are among options to be considered by a sub-committee of the Financial Stability Development Council, which is meeting Dec. 8, the newspaper said.
Overseas investors have sold $325 million more of Indian stocks than they bought this year through Dec. 1, according to exchange data. Asia's third-largest economy grew 6.9 percent in the three months to September from a year earlier, the slowest pace in more than two years.

Trending Topics:
I was disappointed to find Andrew Bacevich agreeing with Robert Imbelli ("History, Hope, & iPhones," October 7, 2011) that the American Catholic Church should recover its supposedly lost integrity by taking a resolute stand against American culture. Bacevich has unfortunately accepted from theologian Michael Baxter a version of the American Catholic story that emphasizes "accommodation" to secular America. Versions of that story now dominate American Catholic discourse across the ideological spectrum, from Catholic Workers to centrists like Peter Steinfels to the bishops and lay leaders who attacked Notre Dame because it honored President Barack Obama.
No one seems to notice that this version of the story, with a variety of theological covers, calls into question the aspirations of immigrant Catholic families, past and present. It turns lay life, insofar as it is lay, into a contradiction of Christian discipleship, and makes most of what we do in Catholic higher education a facilitation of this dreaded secularization.
If those who hold to that story don't opt for Baxter's genuine Catholic Worker prophecy, complete with voluntary poverty and renunciation of politics, then they will turn American Catholicism into another denomination that prays prophetically on Sundays but goes back to work on Monday and never misses a meal. I fear that...

Released: Aug 01st, 2002
Running Time: 117
Director: Ginetto Di Ma
Company: Pacific Sun Entertainment
Cast: Lark Larson, David Drews, Mark Slade, Ryen Matthews, Erik Stellar, Dia (I), Cameron Stone, Mason Tyler, Hans Ebson
Critical Rating: AAA
Genre: Gay and Bi
Should do well in new releases and your twink section.
Dia sure gets a workout in this average feature, and this boy can stay hard. He opens the feature with Erik Stellar in a nice seesaw match of sucking and fucking, both rock hard. Dia follows it up with a Mark Slade encounter, and a threeway with Cameron Stone, Hans Ebson and David Drews is solid. But it's the four-man finale that shines, as Dia, Stone and Mason Tyler seem to be competing for who can stay hardest the longest. Stone and Dia have great chemistry, and watching Stone sit on Tyler's tool while his own hard dick pounds on Tyler's chest is a joy.

"Ruse the Border City to Romania" Top 5 Page for this destination Ruse by rowo
Ruse Travel Guide: 58 reviews and 170 photos
Unfortnetly i only stop for two hours with the train Sofia-Buccuresti at Ruse Train Station and can make there some pictures. You can see here the Ruse TV Tower. Better if you have more time take a train to Russe, stop here and move then with an international train to Romania or from Romania with local trains to Bulgaria. So you have more time to visit the city center. Also a lot of domestice Bulgarian Busses are going to Varna, Sofia and other cities from here. No Bus connection with Romania.

I have a problem with one of the device drivers - it constantly uses resources in a very strange way - one second nothing, the other one full 100%. It creates a saw-tooth pattern in the resource monitor:
It is quite a problem, because the machine is a notebook and this processor usage decreases battery life. The last time the problem went away by reinstalling Windows, but now it is back and I am not sure what caused the problem. I don't recall installing any new drivers lately, but that doesn't mean I didn't.
Maybe it is not a driver, but definetly something running under System (PID 4), such as antivirus, indexer, or something else. How can I display what is actually causing this behaviour within the System process?

Clayton Whitson, husband of Maria Shead Whitson, a teacher in Tulsa, Okla., is in New York helping clean up the city after the Hurricane Sandy. He expects to be back home by Christmas. They will spend Christmas holiday with his parents in Wichita, Kan.
Mary Lee Payne took Helen Sisney, Judy Rawlings and Mary V. Shead to Liberal, Mo., Christian Church on Monday, Dec. 10, to attend a Christmas brunch given by The Joy Makers Sunday School Class. Biscuits, gravy, egg casserole, fruit and juice were served. Following the fine food, games with prizes and gifts were enjoyed.
President of the class, Louise Holland, welcomed the 21 ladies present and gave each the prize she won including the eldest, Mary V. Shead whose 94th birthday was the next day. Others present were Marilyn Dubray, Joan Engle, Carolyn Steele, Peggy Worsley, Mary Ellen Street, Doris Whitson, Leota McClendon, Sherry Ross, Carolyn Noyes, Karen Carpenter, Valorie Worsley, Reba Rouse, Kay Waring, Grace Bryant, Heather Stebbins and Caroline Clark.
It was noted that among the 21 ladies present, Mrs. Shead knows nine personally, and her Father, G.W. Corporon performed marriage ceremonies for four including Judy Rawlings, Louise Holand, Peggy Worsley and his own daughter, Mary V. Shead.
Birthday gifts given lately in Arcadia Christian Church were by Nicholas Younge, 28 years, Zachary Younge, 21 years, Cathy Allen, 54 years and Mary V. Shead, 94 years. Congratulations to all.
The third annual Arcadia Area Holiday Dinner was a huge success in that 90 people were served at the counter that evening after signing the book and receiving a ticket from Scott Ball at the door for a drawing of prizes throughout the evening. At least 28 dinners were delivered or carried home by the others. This dinner was prepared by the best cooks in town. Pat Krieger honored the cooks by presenting a jar of her homemade plum jelly to each.
The table set aside for the Christmas foods given by all to make up baskets for giving to folks for their own Christmas dinners in town was plentiful that night.
Santa Claus Night was a fine evening for young people especially those receiving gifts of bicycles and other gifts besides the treats. Willa Cable could not remember how many cups of hot chocolate she made throughout the evening.
Keith and Glen Twombly of Pittsburg took Walter Foulk to Independence, Mo., to visit his niece Fannie Mae Christenson last week. The boys are sons of Mr. and Mrs. Archie Twombly, a brother to Fannie Mae. The two of them grew up in Arcadia. Many of Fannie Mae's works of art deck the walls of Arcadia Community Center.
The John Parrish family of Pittsburg had a holiday dinner in the home of Wayne and Christi Parrish after all attending Arcadia Christian Sunday of Dec. 16. Old-timers were so glad to greet Mr. and Mrs. Walter Parrish from Texas, Janet and Mark Vanluween from St. Paul, Kan., and their parents, John and Vera Parrish.

I'm very new to Haskell. In fact, I'm working through this section of this tutorial. I came across this piece of code:
import System.IO
import Data.Char
main = do
contents <- readFile "girlfriend.txt"
writeFile "girlfriendcaps.txt" (map toUpper contents)
Which reads the contents of the file called "girlfriend.txt" and writes the upper-cased version of the file to a new file called "girlfriendcaps.txt".
So, I wanted to modify the code a bit to take the name of the file to act on. I changed the code to this:
import System.IO
import Data.Char
main = do
path <- getLine
contents <- readFile path
writeFile path (map toUpper contents)
now, obviously the major difference here is that I'm reading from and writing to the same file. As I'm thinking about it now, this must be a lazy-evaluation thing, but i'm getting the "resource busy" error message. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I guess that readFile doesn't start reading the file until writeFile asks for the contents of it. And then writeFile tries to write to the file, but it must still have the file open because it's also asking for the contents. Am I close there?
So, the real question is: how do I read from and write to the same file in Haskell? It makes sense that it's more difficult, because you will write to a different file from the file you read from more often than not, but for my own edification, how would you read and write to the same file?

Hampton hump
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Hampton's hump, also called Hampton hump, is a radiologic sign which consists of a shallow wedge-shaped opacity in the periphery of the lung with its base against the pleural surface.[1] It is named after Aubrey Otis Hampton, who first described it in 1940.[2] Hampton's hump along with Westermark sign may aid in the diagnosis of pulmonary embolism, although they are rare and their sensitivities and interoperator reliabilities are low.

Is it possible to provide multiple launch images instead of just one Default.png launch image? My goal is, that you have for example 5 different launch images and for every application start it shows another one.
Just in case someone responds with that, I know that there is the possibility to have different launch images for different configurations (e.g. screen orientation). But that's not what I'm looking for. I'd like to have different launch images for exactly the same configuration, with the only variable different being the time of the launch.

When I was getting fitted for my new running shoes, I told the guy that was helping me that I was training for the Wildflower and he said he would be going up their too. I thought that was pretty cool until he said, "Hope yer training for some hills." At that point, we both sort of chuckled and proceeded to talk about something else.
Well, the word "hills" sat in the back of my mind for about a week or so before I went on to the website for the Wildflower and found the actual Race Course map. I found out in fact that the "hills" were no joke and it looks like the cycling portion is a straight roller coaster followed up with a gradual uphill run until you hit the 6k mark and then start climbing some sort of monster. I'm not so much intimidated, but more motivated right now to train harder and change my routes up.
I'd love to hear details from anyone who has raced the Wildflower and how their race went.

Quoting clubjuggle:
The 2/3 reference was to time. Since storms are not evenly distributed through the season, but rather have a peak with less active periods at the beginning or the end, this is right.
IMO, the season is over for a lot of folks already, particularly the northern GOM.

As 50 something regional manager for an industrial door company, I travel extensively, especially in the Midwest. At the price point this is be best value. While some hotels at much higher prices might be more elegant, this one meets the needs of my family, business associates, and me, very well. It is not Ritz Carlton or Drake but I'd put it on par with any new, well-run Hampton Inn, anywhere.
This like-new Country Inn is right at the intersection Hwy 10 and 23, near the new MN 23 bridge over the Mississippi. No road noise can be heard in the rooms. The Mississippi runs through Downtown St Cloud and along the campus of St Cloud State University So the hotel is very close to both. There is even kind of a secret bridge about a mile south that scoots you on campus within minutes, or take the big bridge and it is still really close. The hotel is close to everything, highly visible, but tucked away and kind of land locked. After you get off Hwy 10 by the Copper Kettle, you kind of drive this littel maze to get back in there. But worth the trip.
When I call on customers, have meetings, or just visit the area for family fun, within a 100 radius, I usually stay at the Country Inn & Suites St Cloud East. In fact, even when my boss is in the area (Prez of our company based in Ohio) riding with me, we stay at least one night at this hotel, when Up North. He says its great, too.
Sometimes my family joins me on weekends. We might check in on Friday, play at the hotel that evening, then drive 2 hours north on Sat towing our boat. Even when we spend a day in the Brainerd Area Lakes Area, we go back to this St Cloud area hotel to again stay on Sat night (better & lower price than around Brainerd). Then, Sunday morning, we are less than 2.5 hours from home! (Very ez on the ol' family budget). We eat breakfast at the hotel, maybe hit Cabalas in Rogers, and we are back home in Apple Valley before the heavy traffic swamps I-94 late in the day! More pleasnt, easy, safe, and economical.
Other times we might hunt pheasants at a preserve 15 miles east of the hotel, ice fish at area lakes, take in the local granite quarry park, or ski south of town, or drive up to Sauk Center to the auto races. Sometimes the hotel even has coupons to nearby golf courses.
There is a Cub Foods store within blocks, a way cool Coborns grocery 2 miles north, and a Target store between the hotel and the river (one block west). St Cloud State even has Big 10 Hockey, if you can get tickets.
Most rooms have frig and microwave.
There is a hole-in-the-wall liquor store about one block north. My favorite affordable wine is Gallo Sonoma Reserve cav. They sell it for $10. Go figure! Taxes must be lower.
The parking lot is super safe. I would have not fear of leaving valuable stuff in my car or boat (and do). The hotel is bordered on the west by a collection of little, neat, quaint cracker box homes built about WW2. Low crime area. There is a newer Taco Bell is two doors down. There is a quiet, super clean Firestone store behind the hotel (they often change my oil while I sleep!). With a punch card you get 3 oil & filter changes for $45. What's that $15 each?
Excellent restaurants within minutes along Hwy 23, part of a big shopping area stretches for about 4 miles west of St Cloud (in the suburb of Waite Park). You name it, its out there.
The indoor pool and in floor whirlpool super clean and safe. Rest rooms and shower on deck, a few feet away. You need a hotel key card to get in there. No glass allowed. Small and shallow but fun. You often have it to yourself. You know that awful smell most hotel pools have. Not this one!
Breakfast is above average with eggs, sausage, cheese sticks, and you can coat your fresh waffle with strawberries! This offering is simply better than most of its type. Coffee is always on and fresh.
Rooms smell great and are super clean. No sign of wear or tear. We have a king Select Comfort bed at home that we love, and we actually like their conventional mattresses better! Very, very comfortable. Tons of pillows. Towels are white, plentiful, and like new.
Great choice of cable without having to worry about what the kids might watch. (Yes, you dare touch the very clean remote.) Has elevator and power-operated front sliding doors, plus awning so you can unload in the rain. I like to use one of their 4 wheeler luggage carts to transport the heavy stuff. And the hotel faces south (its back to the north wind) which can be a big deal in the winter.
Guests seem to be sharp, well educated, upscale, and upper middle class. Even the occasional construction guy guest will have silver temples. (He' a boss, I suspect, while the crew is down the street!). I've never seen a semi truck in their lot. The corporate headquarters of Coborns Inc. is two blocks east. This is their hotel of choice for corporate guests. That's how I found it. I bet I've stayed there 25 times over the last 3 years.
Hotel was built after the Minnesota Clean Air Act. Rarely do you see anyone smoking, and if so, there might be one or two folks out of the country porch far from everyone else.
There are never late, noisy parties. I've been there when wedding parties have almost the whole place! Stay on a winter weekend and you might have two girls basketball teams and maybe a boys hockey team, plus parents, and, believe it or not, they are quiet and well-behaved. Simply amazing. A testament to the management's ability to keep order? (And/or maybe very thick walls? Boring quests?)
Staff defines Minnesota nice. Friendly, they know their stuff, work fast, will go the extra mile, and the cookie jar at the front desk is always at least half full. And if you make a mess at breakfast, there tends to be someone with a smile and the right attitude right behind you to clean it up! Everybody acts like the customers are kings (or queens, or princes, or princesses, as the case may be.) At check out they hand you the bill, give you a smile, and a big thanks. None of this slide-it-under-the-door nonsense. Check out on average: 8 seconds. Check in, if you have made a reservation...maybe 30 seconds, plus or minus a cookie and some talk about the weather, or maybe da wonderful Vikes and da evil Packers.
There is seldom any competition for the top-notch PC and printer in the lobby. In-room high speed is flawless, wireless, and like a rocket. I use it often. The place is warm and cozy, too, even though new and big. I think any couple would find this a nice place to stay while in town to celebrate an anniversary, for example. Warm lighting, nice furniture, big firepalce in lobby, and lots of class.
So this is a great value. You will not be disappointed.
Do I sound like the owner or manager of this hotel writing a favorable ghost review on the sly? Absolutely not. In fact, I have no direct association with the hotel and I don't know the GM or the owner. Don't even know their names. If I've interacted with them (probably have) I never knew. Every employee acts like an owner, so you really can't tell who is who.
Don't believe me? If you would want to speak with me personally to get my endorsement first hand, I suspect that could be arranged. You could call the 800 number at our corporate office (the hotel's front desk could help you get it). If you call me, my office would forward your call directly to my cell phone.
Mostly, I'm gushing all over this hotel because these guys have treated me very well over the years, this is just a great place to stay, and I think I would be doing anyone a favor by recommending it.

Released: Oct 01st, 1998
Running Time: 83
Director: Joe D'Amato
Company: Moonlight Entertainment
Cast: Mila (I), Mercedes (I), Alexandra Silk, Billy Glide, Kyle Stone (straight), Oliver Sanchez, Kimberly Jade, Vince Bouyer, Dave Hardman, Christi Lake, Nick East
Critical Rating: AA 1/2
Genre: All-Sex
Christi Lake works at the L.A.P.D.'s Devonshire Division, and relates some experiences of the detainees she has known. This is not, as the box cover states, a thriller. In fact, there's little plot at all. And most of the sex is basic, if intense. However, Kimberly Jade gets points for her scene with officer Vince Vouyer as she sucks, then fucks, him through the cell bars. Sean Michaels, Maria Sanchez and Gina Rome, listed on the box, do not appear in part two.

When Euclidean coordinate lengths are replaced by the metric lengths of a curved geometry within Newton's second law of motion, the metric form of the second law can be shown to be identical to the geodesic equation of motion of general relativity. The metric coefficients are contained in the metric lengths and satisfy the field equations of general relativity. Because metric lengths are the physically measured lengths, their use makes it possible to understand general relativity directly in terms of physical quantities such as energy and momentum within a curved space–time. The metric form of the second law contains gravitational effects in exactly the same manner as occurs in relativity. Its mathematical derivation uses vectors rather than tensors, and nongravitational forces can occur in this modified second law without a tensor form. Because quantum mechanics is based on Newtonian concepts of energy and momentum, it is shown that when metric lengths replace coordinate lengths in Dirac's wave equation, it has a covariant form under a metric transformation of the physically measured distances themselves, rather than a coordinate transformation. Metric transformations are also used to describe the Dirac equation for the gravitational central field in a Schwarzschild metric.
The variational principle and simple properties of the ground-state wave function70(2002); http://dx.doi.org/10.1119/1.1479742View Description Hide Description
The variational principle is used to show that the ground-state wave function of a one-body Schrödinger equation with a real potential is real, does not change sign, and is nondegenerate. As a consequence, if the Hamiltonian is invariant under rotations and parity transformations, the ground state must have positive parity and zero angular momentum.
Effective range theory70(2002); http://dx.doi.org/10.1119/1.1473644View Description Hide Description
The effective range formula for scattering by a short range potential is derived for arbitrary angular momentum of the scattered particle. The derivation is a generalization of a method due to Bethe, and makes no reference to the analytical properties of Jost functions. The derivation is a useful supplement to the textbook coverage of the subject.
A geometric theory of rapidly spinning tops, tippe tops, and footballs70(2002); http://dx.doi.org/10.1119/1.1479741View Description Hide Description
A perturbative geometric theory of rapidly spinning tops is presented and applied to gyroscopes supported against gravity at a fixed point, tippe tops with sliding friction, the motion of a well-thrown football pass, and the effect of spin-drag torques. The theory provides a conceptually simple and formally straightforward analysis of the smoothed variation of the angular momentum vector, and of the angle between it and the symmetry axis.
Teaching antenna reception and scattering from a time-domain perspective70(2002); http://dx.doi.org/10.1119/1.1479744View Description Hide Description
The reception and scattering of an incident plane wave by simple wire receiving antennas are analyzed. The approach is the same as used in an earlier paper where the radiation from similar transmitting antennas was considered. First, analytic expressions are obtained for the current and field of a basic traveling-wave receiving element. Then, a more complicated receiving antenna is viewed as a combination of basic traveling-wave elements, and the current and scattered electromagnetic field of the antenna are obtained by superimposing the currents and fields of these elements. The emphasis throughout is on the use of the time domain, viz., pulsed excitation, to establish physical understanding of the process of radiation/reception, unlike conventional treatments that use time-harmonic excitation. Two examples are discussed in detail: reception by a loaded dipole antenna and scattering by a straight wire. The relationship between the transmission and reception for the dipole, i.e., reciprocity, and the phenomenon of resonant scattering for the wire are also examined.
An experiment to determine the skin depth and Fermi velocity in metals70(2002); http://dx.doi.org/10.1119/1.1485716View Description Hide Description
A simple experimental method for measuring the anomalous skin depth and Fermi velocity in metals is presented. The skin depth is evaluated by measuring the resistance at 77 K of a thick metal wire specimen at frequencies of 100 Hz and 0.1 MHz. The Fermi velocity is obtained by using the theoretical expression that relates the anomalous skin depth to the Fermi velocity.
The speed of sound in a hard disk gas: A computer simulation70(2002); http://dx.doi.org/10.1119/1.1482060View Description Hide Description
We discuss the simulation of a system consisting of a rectangular box that contains two identical hard disk gases with the same number of particles, separated by an internal movable piston. The piston exhibits a random oscillatory motion with a frequency that depends on the mass of the piston, the mass of the disks, the temperature, and the length of the box. The measurement of this frequency allows us to deduce the speed of sound in the gas. The result is compared with the speed of sound from the usual expression in terms of the isothermal compressibility.
Majorana solution of the Thomas–Fermi equation70(2002); http://dx.doi.org/10.1119/1.1484144View Description Hide Description
We report on an original method, due to Majorana, that leads to a semi-analytical series solution of the Thomas–Fermi equation with appropriate boundary conditions in terms of only one quadrature. We also deduce a general formula for such a solution that avoids numerical integration, but is expressed in terms of the roots of a polynomial equation.
Optical aberrations measurement with a low cost optometric instrument70(2002); http://dx.doi.org/10.1119/1.1484145View Description Hide Description
A simple experimental method for measuring optical aberrations of a single lens is proposed. The technique is based on the use of an optometric instrument employed for the assessment of the refractive state of the eye: the retinoscope. Experimental results for spherical aberration and astigmatism are obtained.

Undergraduate experiment to measure the speed of sound in liquid by diffraction of light70(2002); http://dx.doi.org/10.1119/1.1491263View Description Hide Description
Diffraction of light by an ultrasonic phase grating enables a direct measurement of the wavelength of acoustic waves in liquids. If the acoustic frequency is known independently, it can be combined with the measured acoustic wavelength to determine the speed of sound in liquid. The method of Debye and Sears based on a visual display of the diffraction pattern on a distant screen is used. Measurements carried out with a He–Ne laser and an ultrasonic nebulizer provide an excellent experiment for an undergraduate laboratory with a minimum of equipment. A sound velocity of 1536 m/s with an uncertainty of 1% is obtained for distilled water.

Legendary Penn State Football Coach Joe Paterno Dies at 85
Former Penn State coach Joe Paterno, the all-time leader in college football history who was involved in the Jerry Sandusky scandal at Penn State, has died at age 85 of lung cancer.
Former Penn State coach Joe Paterno, the all-time leader in college football history who was involved in the Jerry Sandusky scandal at Penn State, has died at age 85 of lung cancer.
While we can argue about whether or not the right teams were playing, it was hard to argue with the excitement of the BCS bowl games so far. Three of the four were decided either in the last seconds of regulation (Rose Bowl) or in overtime (Fiesta and Sugar bowls), while the fourth (Orange Bowl) shattered virtually every bowl game record on the books for offensive statistics.
But the non-BCS games also gave us a lot of close games and great individual performances, as well. Here are the highlights from the final week of bowl season.
Stanford quarterback Andrew Luck saved the best for last, going 27 for 31 for 347 yards and two touchdowns in what was probably his last college football game.
But his stellar effort wasn't enough as Cardinal kicker Jordan Williamson missed three field goals — including one at the end of regulation and another in overtime — and opened the door for Oklahoma State's exciting 41-38 overtime win in Monday's Fiesta Bowl.
The Rose Bowl between #5 Oregon and #10 Wisconsin was expected to be a shootout, and the two teams lived up to the hype in the highest scoring Rose Bowl in history. Oregon running back De'Anthony Thomas had just two carries, but made them count on touchdown runs of 91 and 64 yards and the Ducks scored 10 unanswered points in the fourth quarter to secure a 45-38 victory.
The second week of bowl season usually features some exciting games, and this year was no exception. Many of the games this week gave us wild plays, last-second finishes, great individual performances and, in the case of the Alamo Bowl, the kind of unstoppable offense that would make Bo Jackson in Super Tecmo Bowl proud. Here are all the highlights from the last week in college football.
While most of the BCS drama focused on the final poll and whether Alabama or Oklahoma State should face LSU in the championship game, the Sugar Bowl was not without its own share of controversy.
Bowl season is in full swing. Here's a look back at what went down in the first week of games.
Thursday, Dec. 22
Maaco Bowl; Las Vegas, NV
Over a year after the first allegations of improper benefits being given to Ohio State football players broke, the NCAA has finally issued its final report on the matter and handed down its punishment.
The Buckeyes will not be eligible to play in the Big Ten Championship or a bowl game next season, and they will lose a total of nine scholarships (three in each of the next three seasons). The school will also be on probation through 2014.
It's pretty well accepted that the BCS system to determine college football's national championship is unpopular with the public.
But a new survey from Poll Position shows just how hated the BCS -- which uses a mix of human polls, computer rankings and strength of schedule to determine a one-off national championship game — really is.

I've been always worrying about using HTTPS in all sites and using secure connections in Messenger, Email, etc, because I don't want people being able to read my private info or hacking my sessions on sites, in shared networks.
However, I would like to try myself doing the same, just to see how easy it is to do what I've been worrying about.
The thing is, Wireshark can only sniff what my computer receives and sends. Or, if I make everything obviously insecure in a private network for Wireshark to be able to get the packets.
I assume that is because routers are not hubs anymore, not broadcasting anymore, sending the packets directly to the destination.
So my questions are:
1) Does it make sense at this time to worry about someone tracking what I'm doing on the Internet in a shared network?
2) If so, how do I sniff traffic from other computers in a shared network?
I'm not saying I'm going to discard the importance of HTTPS. I fully know the importance of it. However, not all sites or services provide secure connections, and those are what I worry about, avoiding using them in a shared network.

Police say cash, electronics and grooming supplies were stolen in a string of burglaries reported Wednesday at two restaurants and two salons in Braintree.
Police said a security camera at one of the businesses, Braintree Nail and Spa in North Braintree Square, showed the suspected burglar wearing a camouflage jacket, white hat and neckpiece that concealed his face. Investigators believe the man could also be responsible for the other burglaries, which were reported at two other businesses in North Braintree Square and one in South Braintree Square.
Police said the first burglary was reported at Alpha Pizza in North Braintree Square around 4 a.m. Wednesday after deliverymen found the front door splintered around a deadbolt. The owner of the restaurant told police that cash was missing.
While investigating the pizza shop burglary, officers also found that the door to the nearby Pura Vida Salon had been forced open. Police contacted the business's owners and were later told that cash and hair-grooming supplies had been stolen from the salon.
Then, shortly before 7 a.m., employees at Ashley's Diner in South Braintree Square contacted police to report that someone had pried open a back door and stolen money from the restaurant. By noon, police were back in North Braintree Square to investigate the burglary at Braintree Nail and Spa.
Police said someone had managed to get into the salon through a side door after they were unable to force a front door open. Money and an iPad were taken, police said.

Is there an easy way to show that $x^4+8$ is irreducible over $\mathbb Z$ without trying to write it as a product of polynomials of lower degrees?
Since $\ 9^4\!+8\ $ is prime, it is irreducible by Cohn's irreducibility test. Or, with smaller prime, consider $\,f(2x) = 8(2x^4\!+1).\,$ Then $2x^4\!+1$ is irreducible by Cohn, since $\,2\cdot 3^4+1 = 163\,$ is prime (in fact, a very famous prime, the largest Heegner number, which explains why Euler's famous prime producing polynomial $\,n^2-n+41\,$ yields distinct primes for $\,n = 1,2,\ldots,40).$
Remark $\ $ Cohn's criterion can be viewed as an example of the general idea that the factorizations of a polynomial are constrained by the factorizations of the values that it takes. If one pushes this idea to the hilt one obtains a simple algorithm for polynomial factorization using factorization of its integer values and (Lagrange) interpolation. The ideas behind this algorithm are due in part to Bernoulli, Schubert, Kronecker. The algorithm is of more theoretical value than practical, since nowadays much more efficient algorithms are known.
There are also other closely related results. In $1918$ Stackel published the following simple:
Theorem If $\rm\, f(x)\,$ is a composite integer coefficient polynomial then $\rm\, f(n)\, $ is composite for all $\rm\,|n| > B,\, $ for some bound $\rm\,B.\,$ In fact $\rm\, f(n)\, $ has at most $\rm\, 2d\, $ prime values, where $\rm\, d = {\rm deg}(f)$.
The simple proof can be found online in Mott & Rose [3], p. 8. I highly recommend this delightful and stimulating $27$ page paper which discusses prime-producing polynomials and related topics.
Contrapositively, $\rm\, f(x)\, $ is prime (irreducible) if it assumes a prime value for large enough $\rm\, |x|\, $. As an example, Polya-Szego popularized A. Cohn's irreduciblity test, which states that $\rm\, f(x) \in \mathbb Z[x]\,$ is prime if $\rm\, f(b)\, $ yields a prime in radix $\rm\,b\,$ representation (so necessarily $\rm\,0 \le f_i < b).$
For example $\rm\,f(x) = x^4 + 6\, x^2 + 1 \pmod p\,$ factors for all primes $\rm\,p,\,$ yet $\rm\,f(x)\,$ is prime since $\rm\,f(8) = 10601\rm$ octal $= 4481$ is prime. Cohn's test fails if, in radix $\rm\,b,\,$ negative digits are allowed, e.g. $\rm\,f(x)\, =\, x^3 - 9 x^2 + x-9\, =\, (x-9)\,(x^2 + 1)\,$ but $\rm\,f(10) = 101\,$ is prime.
Conversely Bouniakowski conjectured $(1857)$ that prime $\rm\, f(x)\, $ assume infinitely many prime values (excluding cases where all the values of $\rm\,f\,$ have fixed common divisors, e.g. $\rm\, 2\: |\: x(x+1)+2\, ).$ However, except for linear polynomials (Dirichlet's theorem), this conjecture has never been proved for any polynomial of degree $> 1.$
Note that a result yielding the existence of one prime value extends to existence of infinitely many prime values, for any class of polynomials closed under shifts, viz. if $\rm\:f(n_1)\:$ is prime, then $\rm\:g(x) = f(x+ n_1\!+1)\:$ is prime for some $\rm\:x = n_2\in\Bbb N,\:$ etc.
For further detailed discussion of Bouniakowski's conjecture and related results, including heuristic and probabilistic arguments, see Chapter 6 of Ribenboim's The New Book of Prime Number Records.
[1] Bill Dubuque, sci.math 2002-11-12, On prime producing polynomials.
[2] Murty, Ram. Prime numbers and irreducible polynomials.
[3] Mott, Joe L.; Rose, Kermit. Prime producing cubic polynomials.
Proffering a different route. The polynomial $$ x^4+8\equiv x^4-2\pmod5. $$ Therefore it suffices to show that $x^4-2$ is irreducible as a polynomial in $\Bbb{Z}_5[x]$. To see that we observe that $2$ is of order four modulo $5$. Therefore the zeros of this polynomial (in some extension field of $\Bbb{Z}_5$) are primitive sixteenth roots of unity. The smallest exponent $m>0$ with the property $16\mid 5^m-1$ is $m=4$. This means that the zeros of $x^4-2$ all belong to a quartic extension of the prime field. The claim follows.
As $x^4+8$ is a primitive polynomial; the only elements of $\mathbb Z$ that divide the polynomial are the units, by Gauss' lemma we need only show $x^4+8$ is irreducible in $\mathbb Q[x]$.
Let $\zeta$ be a root of $x^4+2$. By Eisenstein's criterion, $x^4+2$ is irreducible, so we must have $[\mathbb Q(\zeta):\mathbb Q]=4$, because $\{1,\zeta,\zeta^2,\zeta^3\}$ is a basis of $\mathbb Q(\zeta)$ over $\mathbb Q$. Now, $\zeta^3$ is a root of $x^4+8$, but $\mathbb Q(\zeta^3)=\mathbb Q(\zeta)$, as $\zeta^6=-2\zeta^2$ and $\zeta^9=4\zeta$, hence $[\mathbb Q(\zeta^3):\mathbb Q]=4$, which implies $x^4+8$ is irreducible in $\mathbb Q[x]$.
There are many other ways of showing irreducibility here. For instance, if our polynomial is $f(x)$, look at $f(2x)=8(2x^4+1)$. The thing in parentheses is irreducible if and only if $x^4+2$ is irreducible.
But my favorite method is to consider the polynomial to be defined over the $2$-adic numbers, $\mathbb Q_2$, look at its Newton Polygon, which consists of the two points $(0,3)$ and $(4,0)$, with the segment joining them, which hits no other integral points. Therefore irreducible.
The roots of $x^4+8$ have absolute values $2^{3/4}$. The constant term of a factor of degree $d$ would have absolute value $2^{3d/4}$. But this can't be integral for $d=1,2,3$.

A Church ill at ease with itself Premium03 July 2014 | by Clifford Longley | Comments: 1 The key working document, or instrumentum laboris, that bishops will use at their synod in Rome this October was published last week. Close analysis reveals an institution for which marriage, sex and the family remain problematic, suffering a huge gap between theory and practice If I were a bishop, I would by now be profoundly depressed. I would have been hoping for some glimpse of light concerning a series of exceedingly difficult questions that are crucial to the Catholic Church's entire well-being.

On-line measurement and control systems for film, sheet, paper, foam, coatings, etc. using a wide variety of innovative measurement technologies.
This NPE show won't have a lot of extruders on the floor, either running or static. Instead, look for videos and announcements of new technology. You will also find lots of ingenious peripheral devices to improve output and quality and save resin. Some will do all three, and cost less into the bargain.
Until now, visual surface inspection for doctor-blade stripes or other coating defects on sheet or film had to be performed at the end of the line after the coating had cooled or dried and was no longer shiny, reflecting too much light to be easily inspected.
