Re: SEE how well Mayweather can take a punch
The result obtained by adding several quantities together and then dividing this total by the number of quantities; the mean.
Constituting the result obtained by adding together several quantities and then dividing this total by the number of quantities.
Amount to or achieve as an average rate or amount over a period of time: "annual inflation averaged 2.4 percent".
mean - medium - mediocrity
adjective. mean - ordinary - medium - middling - mediocre - middle
Now, when people say Mayweather's chin is average, particularly when they say, average at best...IMO they are talking *******s, they do not understand the definition, and is quite clearly an overused word.
Like I said, people focus on the shots that Mayweather has been hurt by, but then disregard shots that he has taken that maybe should have hurt him more if his chin was in fact "average". Examples in both the Judah and Mosley bouts are there to be seen. He wasn't hurt in the Judah bout, he did take some fast, clean punches in that bout. In the Mosley bout, he was hurt in the 2nd round, recovered well, and was caught with a big flush overhand right in a latter round, I forget which round (but Mosley was gassed by then, right?)...showing a great example of how ANY boxer can be hurt if the punch lands clean enough. The overhand right that landed in the latter round from Mosley was as clean as you like, arguably thrown with the same power as the shot that badly rocked Mayweather in the second.
An average chin, I would rate Khan's chin as average, maybe a touch above average (yes, an overused word). Khan when hit clean on the chin can be stunned, rocked, hurt, and knocked out...by not even KO artists. Mayweather's chin is better than Khan's. He has been in with better boxers, better brawlers, taken harder and cleaner shots and stayed on his feet. There is the difference.
Khan's chin = Average +
Mayweather's chin = Clearly above average (not iron or great though).

'Haar officiële naam verandert in Nederland echter niet, in officiële registers blijft het dus Julia de Boer, eventueel met de toevoeging e.v. (echtgenote van) Van der Meulen.'
In Belgium, a woman must use her birth name for official purposes and will use her birth name for most private purposes too.
Since the 1789 Revolution, the law stipulates that "no one may use another name than that given on his birth certificate"
Only since the beginning of the 20th century has it been common in Scandinavia for women to take their husband's last name.'

Thanks Jansi Syfert, that's helpful - so we're looking for Curators and users who work in those areas in Geni, to confirm the rough date at which you NEVER fill in married names (or you feel it is correct to delete them, to put it another way.)
In Scandinavia, not before the 20thC - Private User?
In England and the Commonwealth Countries - what cut off date are you using as a rule of thumb, Terry Jackson (Switzer); Private User Justin Swanström?
We're not asking for hard and fast rules; we just realised that there is no guideline for outsiders to figure out what rule of thumb is being adhered to by curators/users working regularly in those areas.

I don't know what the modern customs are in Europe but I just did a conflict resolve in the USA which gave a woman her married name. This brought up a link to her on Find A Grave which wasn't there before. From this I was able to cut off a wrong set of parents and add data including her grave stone. Of course this doesn't work for multiple marriages unless you use her last married name. It also works for the Mormon pioneers.

In Hungary order of name
In my opinion, it will be appropriate to the original maiden (family) name is entered in the Geni
9/20/2012 at 8:16 AM
Thanks guys. I soo badly am not wanting to get into the 'whether we should use married names on Geni', debate. We all know that leads nowhere; and by now we all know what we all think. (I'm with Eldon, for exactly his reasons; but for users from countries where women do not use married names at all it is understandable that there seems little benefit in that.)
9/20/2012 at 8:17 AM
I can't promise that my rule of thumb makes any sense. I operate from two core principles: (1) I want to accomodate married names that can be proved, and (2) I want to accomodate other users who have different opinions about best practices.
What I do, very generally, is leave married names in place but not add them.
A little more specifically, for any profile before about 1600 I delete married names, unless I see real, direct evidence to support them. A caution here: I do not believe that "Mary, wife of Joseph Greene" is proof that she used a married name. Maybe it is, but I reserve judgment.
One pet peeve I have is the medieval profiles that describe women as "Queen Consort of England". To me, that's just tarting up the tree. Just as odd as using married names. But, I don't delete those. Some people just have to have as many titles in their tree as they can pack in.
On British, US and Canadian profiles between about 1600 and 1900, I add married names if the surrounding profiles have them. The law required married women to use a married name, so I don't need any further proof that they complied.
On Scandinavian profiles, I never use a married name, unless they came to America. I delete those before about 1900 (unless I see real evidence). After 1900, it's fact-specific. You have to know whether the particular woman used one or not. Probably about 1900-1970 they did, but most of my living cousins there do not. Since our Scandinavian users are widely agree not to use married names in Geni, I follow their advice -- but I don't delete them if I find them.

Especially in resolving Data Conflicts, this is information that would be useful for everyone to have – especially for countries where we all share ancestors.

FARKAS Mihály László - the situation in SA is similar , but only when it comes to women, who may legally use either surname. Most women legally change their names to their husband's, but some of us - like me - keep our birth surnames.
9/20/2012 at 8:32 AM
Private User, I agree about your preference for the Spanish way. My daughter, who decided to legally use both her mother and her father's birth surnames, is Shay Doubell-Robins. She is planning to marry a Portuguese guy, who is also named from both parents: Nuno Carrapichano Palmeira. The surnames of their children?? :-)
9/20/2012 at 8:45 AM
However, the focus of concern here is the insensitivity and offensiveness of us deleting married names off the profiles of women whose identities may well have been linked to them.
Whether or not you were born with one name, and assumed another when you married at 18 in Britain in the 1700's, if you died at 90, you would have have spent your entire adult life with another surname than your birth surname. That would be who you thought of yourself as, NOT your birth name.
Now for me as a curator or a new joint manager on the profile, to suddenly delete the married name of this woman causes a lot of quite justified offense.
(It's probably just as irritating as it is to me to find someone has 'given' me my husband's surname, to find that someone has deleted your / your great granny's legal surname off their profile.)
I'm trying to get us to put down a reference for when and where married names were simply not used by anyone at all. Because on those profiles it is possible to remove the married name (or preference the profile in the data conflict that doesn't have it) , without being offensive.

For your very specific purposes -- when is it impossible that there was a married name? -- I do not think we can rule out married names in England even from the very beginning of surnames, say 1200.
It's unusual to find a document that names a married woman clearly with a married name (rather than "wife of"), but widows routinely appear with married names from the earliest times. Once in awhile it's not the surname of their most recent husband, but those are oddities.
Also, in Switzerland and France, even Scandinavia, from the 1200s I've often seen widows, and sometimes married women, with married names.
You might end up exploring differences in social class and region, as well as just modern countries. For example, the few cases I've seen in Scandinavia have been noble women whose husbands actually had a hereditary surname, unlike those who had only a patronymic. The cases I've seen in France and Germany have been peasants.
9/20/2012 at 9:09 AM
And cross posting again: @rvk Dunno if that's a good thing or a bad thing?
As to my grandchildren - I (jokingly) suggested that if it was a girl it took the two granny's surnames; and if it was a boy, it took the two grandfather's :-) I think they've decided not to have children to avoid thinking about it any further. :-)
9/20/2012 at 9:11 AM
Justin Swanström good point - but rules of thumbs that ignore the exceptional cases, are still better than just sucking thumb ;-)
9/20/2012 at 9:11 AM
9/20/2012 at 9:18 AM
Sharon, rules of thumb. If you want to ask "when is it impossible?" then you have to allow for the exceptions, at least to a greater extent than if you asking asking "when is it usual?"
I would venture to say that married names are usual in England from the 1200s, and usual among French and German peasants also from the 1200s. I would have to check, but I also think married names were usual among Swedish noblewomen when their husbands had genuine surnames.
(Don't be fooled by the distinction between married women and widows -- that's only relevant because we are more likely to see widows acting on their own.)
Also, I should clarify that Scottish practice was not the same as English. In the Scottish highlands, as opposed to the Lowlands, married women are routinely called by their maiden names in legal documents down to the 19th century and the wider adoption of English practice.

I prefer to work with maiden names but will never delete a married name in someone else's profile, only work this way with the profiles I create myself and would even consider adding the married name if requested by someone.
9/20/2012 at 10:37 AM
Sharon, regarding Israel, that would be an impossible question to answer. The "Israel" you see today is a relatively new entity.
There is NOT even a typical Jewish practice. In Western Europe Jews typically followed the local practice, i.e. surnames in general being introduced following Napoleon's census laws, and these being adopted across Europe. In many countries, especially East Europe, a different set of laws were applied to Jews, who often "didn't exist" officially, so people didn't bother with surnames at all.
In general, surnames were treated as an exterior imposition, and thus taken much less seriously, so [when mentioned at all] tended to stick with the married name. Seriously, unless they are 20th century or later, more often than not, I won't even KNOW the surname of notable people.
In a few cases the married name was that of the WIFE, if this was of specific importance.
9/20/2012 at 10:59 AM
Such fascinating data here. Thank you for contributing, guys
@Shmuel, what is the 20th Century practice?
Justin Swanström - yes, I suppose we will be producing a 'what is usual' guideline, you're right.
Private User
9/20/2012 at 2:25 PM
Sharon if I may post my experience?
- On Geni for my ancestry in USA I use "name at birth" and "name at death," and for precisely the reason Eldon illustrated. It is MUCH easier to find and document the lady using this method, particularly now that we have "external record matches.". And it is very difficult to keep similarly named ladies distinct without the two fields.
- for Scotland I leave "as found on Geni" except more "noble" lines, when I follow historian usage. Thank you Justin for the further clarification of Lowlands vs Highlands. Hard to tell that until sourcing - but if it's my line it's Lowlands / Borders.
- for England I leave as found on Geni. When sourcing however, and that's mostly from will data, I have always found the source to use the married name.

In norwegian genealogy maiden name is always used as standard, no matter what time we are talking about.
The first norwegian naming law came in 1923. Before that there was no law regarding names in Norway. So before 1923 everyone should use their maiden name.
In real life Norway there was a gliding change from using maiden names to using married names from approx. 1880 in the cities (approx. 1900 in the rural areas), but there are also examples of maiden name use into the 1920's.
The law from 1923 has had many revisions up till todays law from 2002. Last revision is from 2007.
Today (by new naming law from 2002) you can basically do allmost everything you want. No rules regarding maiden names.

Sharon: If you follow the most important rule: Don't fabricate facts, there should not be any reason to discuss this as a "problem".
If you don't have any sources telling that a married name was used you should not fabricate it even if it is in an area where is was a tradition.
Remember that even in the US immigrants follow(ed) their old traditions, even if you might find official papers forcing another name on the women, - but they never used it them self.
It's opposite as well, - the Norwegian legislation and traditions as Remi refers to can only be used as a guideline when looking for sources. You should never use it to fabricate facts.
I once used the opposite rule of always using the patronymic birth name in the last name field for women born before 1880 until I discovered that my great grandmother Sara Brink Brox already in the 1865 census was listed with her fathers patronymic name Olsen (traditionally meaning the son of Ole) instead of a patronymic name based on her fathers first name, Hansdatter (daughter of Hans), and already in the 1875 census she is listed with a married name, - both traditions that officially started 50 years later.
In the other end my wife's oldest aunt born 1937 is listed in the early sources as Halvorsdotter, a patronymic name based on her fathers first name, a tradition that officially ended in 1923.
Genealogically the birth name should always be used in the main fields, where documented married name(s) should go into an alternative names section with more details like a from-to range,- if just Geni would give us an option for that.

U.S. Stocks Jump Most in Year on Emergency Europe Loan Package
U.S. stocks rallied, with benchmark indexes advancing the most in more than a year, after European policy makers announced a loan package of almost $1 trillion to contain the sovereign-debt crisis.
Caterpillar Inc., Bank of America Corp. and General Electric Co. rose at least 6.9 percent to lead gains in the Dow Jones Industrial Average. Gauges of energy and raw-materials producers in the Standard & Poor's 500 Index jumped more than 3.9 percent as oil rebounded from a 12-week low and copper rose the most in six weeks. Aflac Inc., which said last month that it holds almost $2 billion of bonds tied to banks in Greece and Portugal, surged 12 percent.
The S&P 500 gained 4.4 percent to 1,159.73 at 4:07 p.m. in New York. The Dow surged 404.71 points, or 3.9 percent, to 10,785.14. It was the biggest gain since March 23, 2009, for both. The VIX, the benchmark for U.S. stock options, sank 30 percent to 28.84, the biggest drop in its two-decade history. Twelve stocks rose for each that fell on U.S. exchanges, the broadest advance since at least 2004.
"It's a great rally," said Paul Zemsky, the New York- based head of asset allocation for ING Investment Management, which oversees $550 billion. "We're very encouraged by the news out of Europe. This takes the panic out of the market. We expect investors to hopefully focus on U.S. economic fundamentals, which have been pretty good. Our forecast is for somewhere between 1,250 and 1,300 on the S&P 500 by year-end."
The S&P 500's advance followed an 8.7 percent slide since April 23 and the biggest weekly retreat since the start of the bull market in March 2009 as concern grew that European leaders weren't doing enough to halt a government debt crisis.
$1 Trillion Package
Jolted into action by last week's drop in the euro to a 14-month low and soaring bond yields in Portugal and Spain, the 16 euro nations agreed to offer financial assistance to countries struggling to finance budget deficits. The European Central Bank will counter "severe tensions" in "certain" markets by purchasing government and private debt.
"It's unequivocally positive for the markets," said Thomas Lee, chief U.S. equity strategist at JPMorgan Chase & Co. "There was never really a question of financial resource but of political will. Sovereign solvency and investors increasingly thinking there was a risk of a dissolution of the EU were becoming very real concerns for equities."
Stocks around the world have been battered this month amid concern European leaders won't do enough to keep indebted nations from defaulting. Greece may have its credit rating cut to junk within the next four weeks, Moody's Investors Service said in a report. Greece is already rated junk at S&P.
Unprecedented Loans
Under the unprecedented loan package, euro-area governments pledged 440 billion euros in loans or guarantees, with 60 billion euros more in loans from the European Union's budget and as much as 250 billion euros from the International Monetary Fund. The European Central Bank said it will conduct "interventions" to ensure "depth and liquidity" in markets.
"The market is anticipating that the fix is the same as the fix in the U.S. and we got a good response in the market, so Europe should get a good response as well," said Doreen Mogavero, chief executive officer of Mogavero, Lee & Co., who works on the floor of the New York Stock Exchange. "Shorts covered immediately, and people with cash began to chase yield again before the market got away from them because interest rates will continue to stay at historic lows."
S&P 500 futures rallied as much as 55 points before the open of exchanges in New York, the overnight limit set by the CME Group Inc., the world's largest futures and options exchange. Today's gain was the fourth-biggest rally in futures since 1993, according to Birinyi Associates Inc.
'Relief Rally'
"It's a relief rally," said Michael Levine, a money manager at New York-based OppenheimerFunds Inc., which oversees about $165 billion. "Europe seems to be more proactively addressing its debt problems. The selloff is overdone. The valuations and the economic trends in the U.S. support stocks moving higher."
The Stoxx Europe 600 Index surged 7.2 percent, the biggest rally since November 2008, after European stocks plunged the most in 18 months last week.
Treasuries tumbled on investors' increased appetite for risk, with yields on benchmark 10-year U.S. notes rising to 3.54 percent.
All 10 industry groups in the S&P 500 rose at least 2.4 percent. Caterpillar gained 7.4 percent to $66.69. Bank of America rallied 6.9 percent to $17.30. GE surged 6.9 percent to $18.04.
Gauges of energy and raw-materials shares jumped as crude oil rose for the first time in a week, and copper and nickel increased. Oil rallied 2.3 percent to $76.80, after surging as much as 4.5 percent to $78.51 a barrel, the biggest intraday increase since Sept. 30. The Reuters/Jefferies CRB Index of 19 raw materials rebounded 1.6 percent after four straight days of losses.
Schlumberger Ltd., the world's largest oilfield contractor, rose 6.3 percent to $66.83, while Chevron Corp. gained 3.6 percent to $79.89. Alcoa Inc., the largest U.S. aluminum producer, jumped 4.9 percent to $12.59. Freeport-McMoRan Copper & Gold Inc., the world's largest publicly traded copper producer, rose 7.3 percent to $72.50.
Boeing Co., the world's second-largest commercial-plane maker, rallied 6.4 percent to $71 after Goldman Sachs Group Inc. raised the shares to "conviction buy" from "neutral."
Aflac, the supplemental insurance company that said in April that it holds almost $2 billion of bonds tied to banks in Greece and Portugal, surged 12 percent to $49.75 for its biggest gain since May 2009.
Genworth Financial Inc. climbed 13 percent to $16.37, after soaring as much as 25 percent. The mortgage and life insurer was upgraded to "buy" from "neutral" at Bank of America Corp.
A gauge of 12 homebuilders in S&P indexes surged 8.1 percent as Lennar Corp., Standard Pacific Corp. and Pulte Group Inc. climbed at least 9.4 percent. Hedge-fund manager John Paulson sees a 3 percent to 5 percent gain in the housing market in 2010 and a 8 percent to 12 percent increase in 2011, CNBC reported without saying where it got the information.
The billionaire, whose hedge fund Paulson & Co. made $15 billion betting on the decline in subprime mortgages in 2007, helped design a mortgage-linked deal sold by Goldman Sachs Group Inc. The Securities and Exchange Commission sued Goldman Sachs for fraud on April 16, saying it failed to disclose that Paulson & Co. helped choose securities for a so-called synthetic collateralized debt obligation and bet that it would collapse.
Moody's Slumps
Moody's Corp. declined 6.8 percent to $21.77. The credit- ratings company disclosed that the SEC is considering cease-and-desist proceedings against it. The stock was cut to "neutral" from "overweight" by Piper Jaffray Co.
Dean Foods Co. had the biggest decline in the S&P 500, slumping 28 percent to $10.47. The biggest U.S. dairy processor said it would eliminate 350 to 400 jobs in addition to 150 already cut this year, and withdrew its 2010 earnings forecast after the company lost customers to lower-priced milk products offered by retailers.
The SEC and six exchanges agreed on a structural framework to strengthen so-called circuit breakers and to handle erroneous trades, the agency said in an e-mailed statement. Chairman Mary Schapiro had a "constructive" meeting with the leaders of the NYSE Euronext, Bats Global Markets Inc., Direct Edge Holdings LLC, International Securities Exchange Holdings Inc. and CBOE Holdings Inc., according to the statement.
Circuit breakers that halted trading on as many as 50 equity markets that compete with the New York Stock Exchange in the U.S. may have kept last week's stock market plunge from snowballing, Richard Grasso said.
"Circuit breakers could have prevented a lot of what we saw last Thursday," Grasso, the former chief executive officer of the New York Stock Exchange, said in a Bloomberg Radio interview. "The market fell 600 points and then recovered 600 points before anyone could finish their cup of coffee."

Skip to comments.China military warns of confrontation over seas
Posted on 04/21/2012 11:39:34 PM PDT by Free ThinkerNY
(Reuters) - China's military warned the United States on Saturday that U.S.-Philippine military exercises have raised risks of armed confrontation over the disputed South China Sea in the toughest high-level warning yet after weeks of tensions.
China's official Liberation Army Daily warned that recent jostling with the Philippines over disputed seas where both countries have sent ships could boil over into outright conflict, and laid much of the blame at Washington's door.
This week American and Filipino troops launched a fortnight of annual naval drills amid the stand-off between Beijing and Manila, who have accused each other of encroaching on sovereign seas near the Scarborough Shoal, west of a former U.S. navy base at Subic Bay.
The joint exercises are held in different seas around the Philippines; the leg that takes place in the South China Sea area starts on Monday.
"Anyone with clear eyes saw long ago that behind these drills is reflected a mentality that will lead the South China Sea issue down a fork in the road towards military confrontation and resolution through armed force," said the commentary in the Chinese paper, which is the chief mouthpiece of the People's Liberation Army.

They are certainly moving that way, but are not there yet.
If they keep up like they have been doing though, in another 5-10 years they will be.
A little disruption like we did in the Middle East and China would be a fractured as North Africa.
As far as I'm concerned, the Phillipines own the entire spratly islands and china and vietnam can pound sand.
But, but.. I thought the Filipinos wanted us OUT so we transferred Clark Air Base over to them.. Who's crying now?
I can't even see them risking an attack against Taiwan nowadays. Even if Bambi didn't retaliate for an ally, at the least he would be forced to void US debt and/or embargo their products which would kill their economy. Not good for a government/populace that is starting to reap the rewards of capitalism. Think about the many casinos that are being built for the wealthy/middle-class in Macau, not to mention the infra-structure being built for remote poor.
Google Macau +gambling +hotels +resorts. You will be amazed at the level of refinement of their resorts. It's the Las Vegas of the orient. You think the Chinese government is going risk such an income producer? Hardly.
As much as I was involved in anti Chi-Com demonstrations back in the late 90's, I don't fear them now, although I wish Clinton hadn't sold our missle/MIRV tech for campaign contributions and should have been prosecuted for being a traitor. My fear is about the rogue nations that just don't care if their people die, especially Iran with their "death wish" for the 12th Imman to crawl out of some well.
China will go back and forth for awhile with the old guard trying to hang on. However, once they got Hong Kong back and discovered how well capitalism works and appeased the people, there is no turning back. China still has a long way to go regarding civil rights and multi-party politics.
The communist party will bluster, but they are still allowing more internal and outside enterprise on a daily basis. Guess how many large American companies have a presence in China (think McDonalds for one). I expect to see China change its entire political structure within my lifetime. Do you know how many of their companies are on the NYSE or Pink Sheets? You'd be surprised.
Million man swim perhaps ?
And we are helping them by continually downsizing our Armed Forces.
Gee, who coulda seen THIS coming?
The United States was Japan's largest trading partner right up until Pearl Harbor.
France was Germany's largest trading partner right up until Hitler's storm troopers went marching down the Champs d'Elysees.
Just an observation.
Great map...therein one can see the extent to which the Chinese are going to dominate their neighbors, and why the US Navy's involvement is so critical.
The chinese basically want to claim the entirety of the South China Sea right up to their neighbor's beaches.
I have no use for the UN, but even their Economic Zones do not allow for anything close to this.
Right now the Chinese are embroiled in a standoff with the Philipines where the Philipines caught fishermen red handed within zone and stopped them. Now two Chinese Coast Guard vessels and a couple fo Philipine vessels are in a standoff on the disposition of those fishermen who the Philipines want to take into custody and charge with infringing on and taking fish from their zone.
Clearly should it escalate the Philipine Navy will be hopelessly outclassed by the Chinese, But the US Navy is a different matter and our interest is to ensure that we and our allies have free transit of those seas...which the Chinese claim would hinder in that critical part of the world.
I have kept track of the rise of the Chinese Navy for the last nine years. They are building new modern surface and submarine combatants at a break neck speed, while we are decommissioning almost as many as we build...and for several years decommissioned more than we built. In the last years of the Bush administration this was turned around...but Obama is now leaning back the other way.
And, A Navy Vet, while it is absolutely true that the Red Chinese have abandoned the Moaist and Stalinist economic models that ultimately led to the fall of the Soviet Union, what they are adotping is very much market driven, but not really a free-market model. I believe it is much more akin to what the Germans adopted prior to World War II. It is more fascist in nature and if they can get their people behind it for Nationalistic Prode and Defense purposes, it can be very dangerous. It took most of the world to put the Nazis down and there were only 60-70 million of them.
If the Chinese can succssefully build such a fascist economy on a population base of 1.2 bllion, it's going to get very dangerous and dicey out there. That's why we need to reign them in now, while we still can and while we still exert such power over their economy.
It is true that they are building a huge amount of our products, and that there is a massive impbalance, bt they are dependent on that matrket utterly. They would wuickly go bankrupt if there was any chance that we were moving towards idling their manufacturing in favor of our own. We can ease into that and slow them down to a point of reducing the threat markedly iof we have the will to do so.
After all, according to the video game Fallout 3, China and America go to full-on nuclear war, starting first with an invasion of Alaska.
2066 (winter): China invades Alaska. The Anchorage Front Line becomes a true battleground.[30][31]
2067: The first suit of T-45d power armor is deployed in Alaska. While lacking the full mobility of future versions, this power armor is incredibly effective against Chinese tanks and infantry. Its ability to carry heavy ordnance becomes key in various localized conflicts, and it has the power to destroy entire towns without endangering the wearer. China rushes to create its own versions, but they are many years behind the United States.[15]
2072: The United States' increasing demand for Canadian resources causes protests and riots in several Canadian cities. An attempted sabotage of the Alaskan pipeline is all the military needs as an excuse to finalize its annexation of Canada, which had already begun in 2067.[30]
2074: Contrary to their claims of seeking only to retake Alaska from the Reds, American power armor units, infantry, and mechanized divisions are deployed to China, but they become bogged down on the mainland, putting a further drain on American resources and supply lines.
2077: Gas prices sky rocket with the regular gas price being $7450.99 per gallon and $8500.99 per gallon for premium.[40]
October 23, 2077: The Great War: bombs are launched; who struck first is unknown. Other countries, seeing the missiles on their way, launch their planes and fire their warheads as well. Air raid sirens sound, but very few people heed the warning, thinking it is a false alarm. The vaults are sealed. Two hours of nuclear bombardment ensues upon the earth's surface. The effects are far worse than most imagined. The earth's faults shift violently, thrusting mountain ranges through the soil. Whole lands are submerged under floods of water.[43]
So, to prevent against this unescapable fate, we need to thoroughly nuke China.... NOW.
Not to worry - after "his next election" Obama will have the flexibility to allow China to take whatever it wants without "going to war".
The Dragon's Fury: World War against America and the West
In mine, the war is 8 yeras long, involves an invasion of Alaska, and also the Chinese taking Australia and all of South East Asia, being allied with India and the Greater Islamic Republic and extending their allied dominance from the middle of the Pacific across to Moscow and Eastern Europe, most of Africa and most of South America and parts of Central America before we start to throw them back in horrific battles, including nuclear exchanges.
With indefinate lifespans.
Change China to Japan and it is 1941 all over again....Fools fail to pay attention to history repeating itself.
There are far too many submarines in the world.
I propose that the Office of Naval Research (ONR) develop some means by which a submarine would both lose propulsion, yet be unable to surface, being inexorably drawn downward, descending past crush depth.
A type of netting would work well for the first part, as once tangled in their propellers they would lose propulsion.
The second part might be accomplished with two or more heavy concrete blocks, attached to the net by cable, with some type of powerful motor to "reel in" the cable when it snags its prey.
The blocks and net could be pre-positioned, and the net could remain too deep to be noticed until a signal is sent to raise it.
Bethesda Game Studios makes some fantastic games. I was very into Elder Scrolls IV, Oblivion, and now have Skyrim too. Unbelievable graphics.
Too bad they do not have a networkable play option...but good enough without it anyway.
Mk-46 works very well in this regard.
Not only did they kick us out Clark, but also Naval Station Subic Bay. I always thought that some day they would learn to regret it. I've often wondered what happened to Olongapo and Subic City and where all those "hostesses" went and legit workers went.
Again, I was a street activist against Chi-Coms.
Ah c'mon everyone knows that our most threatening enemies are the ones who have to steal our planes, build improvised bombs and blow themselves up. This is the war on terrorism we've been at for 10 years We free trade with China. We wouldn't do that if they were building capability, or would we?
Don't get me wrong, I don't support the current China regime with their many oppressive policies. However, their "free-market" model is more open than most know. I follow their economic trends because of being a global investor.
As for the Nazis, they didn't have Trident subs to deal with. Yours and the poster's above statement about history repeating itself is not valid in this nuclear age. With all the China government faults (plenty), they are not suicidal, unlike the Norks and various Islamist regimes.
I may be naive, but I think China's leadership wants to live and prosper. They've seen the writing on the wall since Hong Kong and are changing by the day. The old guard will be gone within the next 5-10 years. Yes, some politicos/military may fight it, but once people get a taste of liberty and prosperity, governments fall. They are getting that taste of freedom daily.
Think how many nations have followed our example since 1776.
Unfortunately, once the populace sees what government can do for them the old circle continues, as seen by the EU and the USA.
As stated on my above post, look at how many western companies are doing business with them. Their biggest problem on the NYSE is not adhering to certain financial rules that get them kicked of the exchange. They bring in western auditors and fix their problems and allowed back. The regime is also allowing their people to own land and start/own businesses daily. Quite a change from their past totalitarian mindset. I don't believe their economic policies are "fascist". Understand the argument, but it's a different age for economies. Even though they call themselves communists, they are heading towards a European socialist economic model.
"...Thats why we need to reign them in now, while we still can and while we still exert such power over their economy."
I don't believe they are the threat any more. Nations/leadership change - some for the better as in Viet Nam (much investment happening there); some for the worse as in Iran and North Korea and the "Arab Spring" muslim countries. Venezuela and Cuba are lost for the time being. That may change, also.
"It is true that they are building a huge amount of our products, and that there is a massive impbalance, bt they are dependent on that matrket utterly. They would wuickly go bankrupt if there was any chance that we were moving towards idling their manufacturing in favor of our own. We can ease into that and slow them down to a point of reducing the threat markedly iof we have the will to do so."
Agreed. I wish that our regulation/tax/immigration policies would revert to encourage American manufacturing. Guess I'm not a "Hopey and Changey" person. I want us to relive our glory days of being the strongest economic and military power, although we still are just barely.
Take care. If you want to talk privately, please FReepmail.
One should always consider the importance of plausible deniability.
In the last few months before it fell, I believe the Soviet Union lost four submarines, with the assumption that they suffered the same mechanical failure. If, say, a half dozen of China's best submarines all went bloop in just a few days, with no indication prior to a loud noise when they got too deep, there is little or nothing China could do, other than fret.
But it would do much to take them down a few pegs as far as willingness to engage in aggression.
"Those darned Krakens!"
They don't need to fight us, if pushing their weight around causes us to retreat without a fight.
As in Sun Tsu's "The Art of War", the epitome of skill is to win without fighting, by destroying the enemy's willingness to fight you.
I still think the Chinese have too much to lose by a real war but that doesn't mean we can let them bully, bluff and intimidate their way into more power. I do understand your point that you can never assume anything with such a government. Even if a monster tries real hard to look less like a monster it is never the less still a monster.

Saints shuffle assistant coaching duties
Published: Tuesday, March 15, 2011 at 6:01 a.m.
Last Modified: Tuesday, March 15, 2011 at 6:08 a.m.
NEW ORLEANS — The New Orleans Saints have moved two assistant coaches to new positions and hired a new assistant.
The team has promoted Tony Oden to secondary coach from assistant secondary coach, while moving Mike Mallory from assistant special teams coach to assistant secondary coach.
The Saints also announced on Monday that John Bonamego has been hired as an assistant special teams coach.
Bonamego is in his second stint with the Saints. He was the Saints' special teams coordinator in 2006 and 2007 before spending two-plus season in the same job in Miami.
Oden has spent five seasons with the Saints and replaces Dennis Allen, who recently became defensive coordinator in Denver. Mallory is entering his fourth year on the Saints' staff.

Released: May 01st, 1998
Running Time: 130
Company: Elegant Angel Productions
Cast: Teri Starr, Nico Treasures, Sindee Cox, Tyler (I), Toni James, Missy (I), Rianna, Kacey (I), Jacquire, Kelly Bernard, Heather Lynn, Deva Station, Raylin, Nici Sterling, Emily (I), Others
Critical Rating: AAA 1/2
Genre: All-Sex
The Dr. Fellatio series pulls off the hardest illusion in show business: They make it look easy. A look at the lesser attempts in the wall-to-wall blowjob sub-genre shows how many have been taken in by this shrewd artifice.
Again, 16 blowjobs, all ending in facials. Editor Ron Bossman injects freeze-frames, stutter-edits, under-cranking, white outs and fisheye lens ultra close-ups. Scenes go at their own pace, running longer or shorter as material warrants. Extracurricular activities include occasional tit-fucking and 69 action, and porn cognoscenti can play the whose-dick-is-that? game as well. The veteran talent is unsurprisingly good, and the newcomers acquit themselves admirably, especially freckled and pierced Kelly Bernard, and blond lovely Teri Starr, whose 69-position blowjob-in-progress is interrupted by an eye-rolling orgasm delivered upon her by her partner.
As well-done as its predecessors. Stock accordingly.

The Rise of an Angel - Making Of by neverdyingWatch
©2014-2016 neverdying
If you mind me asking how you made the light shimmers that look similar to rain?
Amazing work
Good to see.. impressive but too easy lol :-P
haha sure looks easy. But took like 8h to finish. This is just an animation made with some of the layers.
great job!
Awesome to see how you created your scene, Thanks for sharing!
Wow this is very amazing!
I love how you created the background; the fact that you turned the church a little to the left, it creates a sort of tension
also I liked the part where you blended the color together and the blood spots on the angel,
thanks for sharing!
...this is awesome Dan...
hmm how did I miss this one
Anyway, great work, glad to see this making of
I agree with Diamon you make it look easy.
I take days to finish a job and you do it very fast and very well done.
I take days to finish a job and you do it very fast and very well done.
This is just the big steps this work took me several hours divided in two days
You make it look easy! WOW!


text: A moisture analyzer, sometimes called a moisture balance, analyzes moisture content in a material sample. A balance is an instrument used to determine the mass of an object. A moisture balance uses heat to dry a sample, and then calculates moisture content from the before- and after-drying weight. This process is called loss on drying (LOD). In addition to moisture content, some moisture analyzers also calculate dry content, weight, and moisture content compared to dry weight, also called ATRO moisture content. Measurements are displayed on the balance, or transferred to a computer. Moisture analyzers are used in food and beverage, pharmaceutical, paper, and milling industries, and in research applications. Applications include product quality assurance during storage or transportation, and in manufacturing and pharmaceutical applications.

My search for authentic truffle recipes, not found on the Internet nor in cookbooks, brings me to some inspiring places. Here, in the heartland of truffle culture, in the Central Apennines, I knew I would find something special because this is the only place where truffles can be eaten fresh all year round.
Weight loss experts will tell you that weight loss is 75 per cent what you eat and 25 per cent what you do. Resisting that rice pudding becomes even more important when you know that. You can drop the obvious treats like cinnamon buns, but do you have to give up ALL warm yummies to stay on track? I don't think so.
Anyway, I recently had the opportunity to feed a group of yogis visiting from Brooklyn, NY. They were a fascinatingly fabulous bunch, and I am not too humble to say that I think I turned a few of them vegetarian (loving, anyway) while they were here. At lunch one day, I decided to toss this green-bomb their way, to great reviews.
Blue Jays fever has taken Canada by storm! People are getting out of jury duty to watch their favourite team in action and workplaces are setting up TVs so employees don't have to miss game day excitement. I spoke to Chris Joyner, Major League Strength and Conditioning Coordinator for the Toronto Blue Jays, to get the inside scoop on what the Jays are eating to power through their first post-season in 22 years.
This was one of the first ever recipes I created for my blog, and it has since gone through numerous variations. I have been loving this bread with pretty much everything on it. It is great topped with a simple bruschetta mix with chopped heirloom tomatoes, fresh basil, some minced garlic, olive oil and sea salt.
As we are on the cusp of fresh greens popping up from the earth, I will say farewell to the wonderland of winter with this last hurrah with the root vegetables. I present to you a simple, but flavourful, colourful and delicious roasted root medley, which falls perfectly in line with all that makes this UnDiet Life so vibrant.
Coming from India, I discovered a new love of eating turkey and all the classic sides that go with it, whether it's candied yams, buttermilk biscuits or silky soft mashed potatoes. But when it comes to appetizers, instead of the usual chips, cheese plates or nuts, I plan to shake things up a bit this year with a few classic Indian appetizers.
I am on the "meatless Monday" bandwagon, so when it comes to finding delicious vegetarian meals I am always on the lookout. I love the simple elegance of a brown butter sauce and so do my kids! Kids love noodles and butter, well so do I when the pasta is good and the butter has been browned! I use wonton wrappers in place of homemade pasta, making this dish not only delicious but super fast!
I've always loved kettle corn: popcorn with the perfect combination of salty and sweet! Popcorn, after all, is a whole grain -- and though it gets a bad reputation at the movie theaters, homemade popcorn can be a light, healthy and delicious snack that satisfies those munchies. I decided to add a holiday twist to this batch of kettle corn by sprinkling it with a combination of spices that give it a nice warm gingerbread taste. You can also add other ingredients like a drizzle of chocolate, dried fruit, and shredded coconut.
I think that "bliss" is a very appropriate word to describe these treats, as they're chocolatey, fudgy, and full of wholesome ingredients. So wholesome, even, that not only are they considered a treat, but they're the perfect on-the-go snack -- whether you need an energy boost for a workout, or something to get you through those exhausting holiday shopping days.
As a marathon runner, I'm always looking for nutritious breakfast foods that both energize and satisfy. This shakshuka recipe I've been tweaking for a few weeks now is the perfect combination of all those things. It contains all four food groups and is low in fat and sodium so I don't feel weighed down while pounding the pavement.

Do you know like we were saying? About the Earth revolving? It's like when you're a kid. The first time they tell you that the Earth's turning and you just can't believe it because everything looks like it's standing still. I can feel it: the turn of the Earth. The ground beneath our feet is spinning at a thousand miles an hour. And the entire planet is hurtling around the sun at 67,000 thousand miles an hour and I can feel it. We're falling through space, you and me. Clinging to the skin of this tiny little world and if we let go... that's who I am. Now forget me, Rose Tyler. Go home.

Working with an Exact Knife has been a nightmare for me. It seems to have a mind of its own. The pencil-like style of this retractable knife is VERY easy to use and control as I cut. I like both the form and the operation as well as the self-storing feature. The only thing that would make it even better would be to have a way to store the replacement blades inside the pen.......I do have a tendency to either misplace things or forget what product "this" blade goes with.
This craft knife is simply the best craft knife out there.
Unlike the wonky shaped Fiskars model that came out last year, this offers precision, a comfortable hold and dude, the thing comes with 5...yes FIVE replacement blades.
And the retactability is wonderful.
I never have to worry about "little hands" getting their hands on this by accident.
A+ for Bo Bunny!!!
I love this knife! I swore off craft knives a few years ago after I cut my finger open and it required 3 stitches but I needed a knife to do some intricate work so I decided to give this one a try and it's great!
This is a really nice sharp knife! It is a nice small tip to get into hard to reach details, but I have used it for some time now and it is not anywhere near dull!

Saxophone synth that is. At first I had thought it was an actual saxophone in the beginning few notes. A sound that would fool a normal listener. I'll never warm up to syth saxes (mostly because it puts me out of a job...).
Other than that, it was a fine masterpiece.
Lol. I just hope it's pleasant to listen to anyways.

Cup hat-trick for Wingate & Finchley
By Paul Lerman, March 30, 2012
David Smouha was one of the scorers as Wingate & Finchley Under 18s won the AFA Cup following a thrilling 3-2 extra-time victory over Valley Park Rangers.
Smouha, who also had a goal disallowed, capped a brilliant solo effort by sending a rasping drive in off the post to make it 2-0.
Captained by Joe Sharpe, the son of club chairman and Under-18 team manager Aron, the Blues are now preparing for the London County Cup final on May 6. Jamie Nagioff and Seb Garber also featured.
Goalkeepers Sam Singer and Ross Weinrabe helped Wingate's respective Under-17 and Under-16 teams complete a cup treble.

Released: Nov 01st, 1991
Running Time: 80
Director: Gordon van der Meer
Company: VCA Platinum
Cast: Madison (I), Peter North, Alice Springs, Paula Price, Jackie Tristan, T.T. Boy
Critical Rating: AAA
Genre: Feature
What at first seems like average fare, City Girls sports a couple of excellent sex scenes. The Prices perform with their usual élan, and Eric cums nicely between her tits; then the Alice Springs/T.T. Boy hook-up is bound to excite you, the woman moans so well. The plot doesn't usually get in the way of the action, but as the story goes, Springs is a poor little rich girl who falls for Boy, then apparently dumps him on (or maybe simply shares him with) bank VP Madison. This isn't one of Madison's best performances, though her scene with Boy is reasonably hot; certainly more so than her coupling with Springs. Bringing up the rear, so to speak, is newcomer Jack Tristan's tryst with Peter North (who also produced the feature), which has a certain amount of energy but not that much heat. There are better things to see, but this tape doesn't disappoint.

I've been searching for a smart solution for a XenServer firewall for about a month now. The documentation for the new default networking backend "openvswitch" is not that detailed and I can barely find guides to filter packages with OVS. The other possibility would be linux bridge with iptables (which I am going to evaluate in the next couple days).
How are you firewalling with you XenServers? Do you use the Dom0 for it, do you have a dedicated VM for it ... ?

Ravello is a stunning city and our stay at Toro Hotel unfortunately wasted part of its beauty. The hotel itself is nice, the location central yet quiet, and the staff friendly at first. Unfortunately the room is very basic: old TV, uncomfortable bed (very hard mattress which has been hurting my back for the last week) and tiny bathroom (so small that we had the step over the bidet to get to the shower).
The cleaning staff was making noise from 8am when we were told to take our shoes off and be quiet if we got back late after dinner. On our last night, Italian guests came back late and had no issues waking up the entire hotel up which indicates that treatment of non Italian vs. Italian customers is different! The night concierge was extremely judgmental and told me off because my boyfriend was staying out later enjoying the warm summer nights - never have I had someone in a customer service function tell me off in this way - I was absolutely shocked and appalled!
The cherry on the cake was when we were told that we had to check out after 8:30am on the day of our departure and at that time the card machine did not work. Without an apology from the receptionist, I had to run around town to find a significant amount of euros in cash to pay for our 5 nights' stay in Hotel Toro.
I appreciate that it is a hotel full of history but there is a strong need to improve on customer service and basic amenities. I highly recommend finding another hotel to stay at in Ravello.

Measurement and Sources of Economies of Scope: A Primal Approach
Scope economies (reflecting the benefit of a multioutput firm) have been defined by Baumol, Panzar, and Willig in the context of cost functions. This paperuses Luenberger's shortage function to develop a general measure of scope economies directly from the underlying technology. The analysis applies under complete as well as partial specialization. Our primal measure of economies of scope is decomposed into four additive parts: one measuring complementarity, one reflecting economies of scale, one reflecting convexity of the technology, and one reflecting the role of catalytic outputs. This decomposition appears useful and helps generate valuable insights into the economics of specialization.

Critical Rating: AA
Genre: Feature
Deejay, Ray Victory and Jean Afrique in a scene shot well over a year ago in the same feature with Kiley Chanel, an attractive newcomer? This all sex tape basically has several unrelated scenes. I can tell you one thing for sure, whoever wrote the dialog didn't get paid by the word. In fact there's a distinct possibility he was paid for not writing. It's a basic interracial tape, but worth stocking since very little new material in this genre gets made.

Emilie Clark at the Lynden Sculpture Garden
Like a Victorian naturalist, Emilie Clark has made a careful study of her subject, complete with field notes, writing, drawings and paintings. Her subject? Her own life, as a woman, an organism and a thinker.
Inspired by the life and works of Ellen Henrietta Richards, who introduced the term "ecology" into the English language and who was the first female student and instructor at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Clark has embodied Richards' century-old research methods and practices during the last year or so. »Read Full Blog Post
Crisply executed dialogue elevates 'Understudy'
"All I see are movie stars movie stars movie stars," laments Harry, the journeyman actor in Theresa Rebeck's rollicking "The Understudy," now on stage in a fun Renaissance Theaterworks production that opened Saturday night. "It's like a disease," Harry continues. Or "maybe more like 'pathology.' Or 'ongoing cultural disaster,'" he concludes.
All true enough, if one is keeping track of the numerous Hollywood stars making fools of themselves on Broadway. But as Rebeck's title suggests, Harry is now understudying one of them: an action-movie stud named Jake, himself improbably understudying an even more famous Hollywood co-star. »Read Full Article

Sadly I think your assessment of Hudds is spot on,He can pass the ball, but often he is a little over ambitious. I guess he is supposed to be a deep-lying creative midfielder.Jan Vertonghen is fully capable of playing the holding role. I'd start Naughton at LB, Daws and Caulker at CB. My biggest concern is who to play next to Vertonghen in CM! we have no quality options left. I can't see Gylfi or Dempsey being able to play there, Hudds isn't good enough and IMO Tom Carroll isn't ready, all other options are injured.I hate slagging Spurs players, but I cannot defend Hudds, he's mid-table quality at best.COYS

A listing of offered courses follows with prerequisites. The credit value of each course is represented by the number in brackets.
Reading and discussion of selected poetry and prose, with special emphasis on the works of major figures such as Ralph Ellison, James Baldwin, Toni Morrison, and Alice Walker.
This course has as its premise that the work of contemporary African American women writers—such as Toni Morrison, Alice Walker, Gloria Naylor, Paule Marshall, and Sherley Anne Williams—can be interpreted in the context of an identifiable literary tradition with sources in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The course will look at the construction of this tradition in terms of specific literary themes and techniques, from "signifying" to communities of women that have been theorized by feminist and African American scholars. Prerequisites: GS 100; and either one 200-level literature course, or AFS 110 or AFS 111; or permission of instructor.
This course examines African American autobiographies from the early narratives of Douglass, Jacobs and Washington to the self-conscious, lyrical texts of the 1960's and 1970's. The course also introduces students to theories of autobiography and the written self. Prerequisite: Any 200-level literature class or permission of the instructor.
An examination of the broad contours of the history of African Americans in the United States, with primary focus on the period from 1865 to the present. Topics include African American culture, resistance to slavery, black Americans and the military, civil rights, American apartheid, and African Americans and the United States political economy. Prerequisite: HIS 100 or HIS 130 or HIS 131, or permission of department chair.
Examination of the political process of the contemporary American city from precinct to city council and city hall. Considers such topics as the social and economic characteristics of urban population and leadership; economic and ethnic interests, groups, and conflicts; and the interplay of interest groups, political parties, and government in response to problems of contemporary urban life.
An interdisciplinary examination of the colonial origins, Cold War/post–Cold War context for emergence as independent states, and contemporary political issues in the two-thirds of the world we call the Third World. Emphasis on the meaning of development and obstacles to attaining it. Consideration also of internal colonialism, or "the Third World in our backyard," such as Native Americans, ex-slaves, and immigrants from the Third World living in developed countries. Prerequisite: Any 100-level POL course or permission of instructor.
AFS 323/POL 323 Caribbean Politics [3]
Analysis of contemporary Caribbean politics. Focus on problems of decolonization, race, and class against the historical backdrop of colonialism and slavery. Prerequisite: POL 105 or permission of instructor. POL 220 or POL 222 recommended.
This course will examine the diversity of the Caribbean American culture, the impact of colonization and slavery on the family structure, the pattern of migration, culture shock, and other adjustment issues for families; and the implications of these factors for education, politics, and social relations within the Caribbean American communities and their interaction with the host society.
A social-historical analysis of the impact of race and ethnicity upon the distribution of power, opportunity and privilege in a social structure. Major theoretical perspectives on racial and ethnic prejudice and discrimination will be examined along with the diverse patterns of interracial and interethnic contact that develop in different societies. The course will also focus on the politics of minority status, studying the growth and development of social movements that have challenged the legitimacy of racial and ethnic stratification.
Prerequisite AFR 110
Prerequisite AFR 131
Prerequisite APC 122 & APC 123
Prerequisite AFR 222
An examination of the distinct and continuous tradition of African American culture that has existed historically and continues to do so as a separate entity within the larger cultural framework of American society. Emphasis on the metamorphosis of aspects of continental African culture into African American culture. Perspectives on black music, art, language, religion, and social mores.
Open to seniors who have taken no fewer than 21 credits in the program and who have earned a minimum grade point aver-age of 3.0 in their major. The student must prepare a senior thesis under the supervision of a faculty member chosen in consultation with the coordinator of Africana studies. The student will be required to defend this thesis before an Honors Committee approved by the Africana Studies General Advisory Committee.

Greek coastguards say they have discovered a record two-tonne
haul of heroin and arrested 11 crew from a Togo-flagged
tanker that they suspected had brought it into the country.
Officers working with U.S Drug Enforcement Administration
seized 987 kg of the drug on Sunday, the coastguard said
without going into details on where it was found.
Another 1,133 kg was discovered during a raid on a warehouse
near Athens last week, it added.
The tanker called Noor One was suspected of bringing in both
loads, the force said in a statement.
The vessel had sailed through Oman and Pakistan before it was
seized off the port of Elefsina near Athens on Sunday, the
coastguard added.
"These coordinated efforts ... led to the largest seizure of
heroin on a European level," Shipping Minister Miltiadis
Varvitsiotis said.
The arrested crew members are expected to appear before a
prosecutor on Monday.

I'm running a build command on Ubuntu 12.04. The command opens a GUI for a few seconds, and then closes it. I'm finding this kind of disruptive -- is there a way to alter the command-line syntax to hide the GUI or pipe it elsewhere?
Specifically, I'm using Arduino 1.5.2's new command-line support:
arduino --verify /home/matt/blink/blink.ino
This pops up the standard Arduino IDE to perform the build or upload.

Released: Dec 01st, 2000
Running Time: 75
Director: Dean Dickson
Company: Hollywood Sales
Cast: Cody Tyler, Jason Ward, Collin Jennings, Doug Jeffries, Rick Brock, Casey O'Brian, Robert Harvey, Steven Tylor
Critical Rating: AA
Genre: Gay and Bi
Just what the porn world needs: another mediocre video featuring a bunch of middle-aged muscle queens in Calvin Klein underwear. But that's exactly what Billy's Bud offers. After his wife dumps him, unlikely lead Cody Tyler returns to his hometown to hook up with high school crush Robert Harvey. In four barely related scenes, unimaginative videography and bad lighting do little to hide the unappealing cast's shortcomings.
