Quote from: CarlTN on December 15, 2013, 01:21:41 AMDo you work for Honda? You said "we" when referring to them.No mate I wish I was that involved, I said I can't wait for them to be a part of the McLaren framework again as our best era was while "we" had Honda power, I was referring to McLaren as they are my team, I stick with the team and not the drivers, no matter who comes and goes!!I agree with V8Beast about Hamilton and Alonso, I also think they are arguably the best drivers on the grid at the moment. All the limitations imposed on the teams in F1 by the powers that be are ultimately "bendable", and these restrictions (and their loop holes) are what help create the new fancy gadgets that will find their way into production vehicles in the future, such as new lighter/stronger materials to old design features such as overhead cams, ignition timing, exhaust performance or simple aerodynamics or tyre features which can be used on a standard production car, it all starts in F1.This (and the creepy bikini thread) are brilliant
Do you work for Honda? You said "we" when referring to them.
Have to disagree again on Alonso and Hamilton, sorry. I think this is just Vettel hating, nothing more. Some people resent his (and his team's) success, I don't.
Sorry I've missed this thread until now. Sorry also for my long reply. Going back to the OP's question…..

I can see your point...but no I disagree that Alonso and Hamilton are "better" drivers than Vettel. They're not even close, really. Alonso is getting older, and Hamilton is also older than Vettel...and again, lacks the right instincts, discipline, and respect for those around him to do anything other than run off the track whenever he actually is able to go fast.
Quote from: CarlTN on December 16, 2013, 04:21:33 PMHave to disagree again on Alonso and Hamilton, sorry. I think this is just Vettel hating, nothing more. Some people resent his (and his team's) success, I don't. Driver debates can go on forever, and IMHO it's just one factor that makes being an F1 fan even more interesting. I have the utmost respect for Vettel. No hating here. He has, however, been the beneficiary of great fortune, and winning championships is a combination of driving talent and circumstances falling your way. Senna was arguably the greatest ever, far better than Prost, yet Prost had the better equipment and won more championships. Many would make a similar argument that Hakkinen was every bit as good, if not a better talent, than Schumacher. As a fan of the Scuderia, I was pulling for Schumacher back in the day, but it seems like Hakkienen got the better of Schumacher through sheer talent and determination, whereas Schumacher got the better of Hakkinen through superior equipment/reliability or pit strategy. Sure there were seasons during their rivalry where the McLaren was the faster car, but it wasn't the most reliable car. If Mika hadn't retired at such a young age, I doubt Schumacher would be a 7-time World Champion. Again, it's a combination of talent, equipment, luck, and circumstance that went the way of guys like Prost and Schumacher that at least partially accounts for their success.While driver talent is supremely important in F1, a great car can make a good driver appear to be a great driver. Can anyone honestly say that Jenson Button was the best driver on the grid during his championship season in 2009? No one in their right mind would have picked him to win the championship at the start of the season. Likewise, let's analyze the 2004 and 2005 seasons for Ferrari. Schumacher won 13 of 18 races in 2004, and finished on the podium in 16 of 18 races. That's probably the most dominant team and driver performance I'll ever seen in F1 in my lifetime. Compare that to 2005, when Schumacher only won 1 race! The Ferrari chassis was so miserably uncompetitive in 2005 that the same driver that won 13 races the year before could barely muster 1 win, and the only reason he won that race is because over half the field parked their cars after the formation lap at Indy! My point is that the car is every bit as important as the driver in F1, and the greatest driver on earth will never win with a POS car. Vettel could very well have the talent to win in inferior equipment, but he's never had to prove himself in that regard. I'll give him props for eeking out a win with Toro Rosso, but he's had the best car by a wide margin since 2010. In contrast, Alonso, Hamilton, and Raikkonen are all drivers who have managed to win races in inferior equipment. Perhaps the best example of this in recent years is Alonso, whose Ferrari is so slow that it would barely qualify 6th or 7th, yet he managed to consistently put in on the podium. And if not for idiotic pit strategy in the last race of 2010, Alonso would have won his third championship, which means that he and Vettel would both be three-time World Champions instead of the score being 4-2, in favor of Vettel Vettel is good, very good, but how good we don't yet know because his car has been so freakin' fast.

Going back to the OP's question…..Incredible images and great advice!Totally agree, OP pretty much follow what that guy said I found the following comment on a fan page that I'm signed up to, it sounds sensible, so hope this little bit also helps!The first time we went there we sat on open stands at turn 14 ( now non-existant) no shelter, bloody hot, but right on the restart to the grandstand straight. ( Great accelerations views) the year after I took the open field at turn 8. Still no shelter and we melted under our umbrellas that's when I decided that every other year we will get the covered open area @ turn 10/11 and that's where we've been every year since.On a similar note, if anyone fancies dropping into Dubai on the 10th January then I'll happily show you the wonderful sights of the Dunlop 24 hour's race, which is still my most favourite motorsport event EVER! We have 86 GT cars confirmed this year.....including an official team entry from McLaren, so I'll be in heaven!!

Anyone of the drivers can drive from pole to victory with the best ride in the series. How can anyone say anything about Vettel's skills, when he hasn't been in a comparable situation to the others? It also seems to be so that certain settings only fit one driver and usually both cars from one team are built with those settings. The other driver suffers because of this. It might not be possible to say if Kimi is better than Alonso (or the other way around) even when they both race Ferraris. Häkkinen claims that the turbo engine driving style fits Kimi better. Who knows... And yeah, Alonso is already taking part in the upcoming car's planning, so it might be built to suit him better & then Kimi just has to do his best with that.
You live in Dubai? That's cool...
Quote from: CarlTN on December 18, 2013, 03:00:39 AMYou live in Dubai? That's cool...Thanks mate, yes it's a nice place, INSANE driving standards, but a nice place I love how sports can be defended so seriously, THIS is what makes being a supporter is all about!!The whole "my favourites better than your favourite" is an inevitable outcome to all threads and it really is the salt of the earth, I love how F1 fans mingle and rhyme off the stats of their best ever moments in history and defend their team or driver to the death!!!For me Senna was the best, Shumi was incredible but at that time I worked weekends and had just got engaged, so having the luxury of supporting F1 was not really an option, I did keep up with events but I missed a lot of races, the fact that I'm a McLaren fan and that "the old enemy" (Ferrari) was trouncing everyone in their path sort of led to a lack of enthusiasm.For me Vettel is currently the best on the track, the guy's the 4 time world champion and credit where it's due, his skills with the RB car have been exceptional, the fact that he can create a lead of almost double digits in a few short laps also suggests that he and the car really are one, and that the RB car is in a league of its own!! The only real time I saw him showing that he was human, and could succumb to pressure like us mere mortals was the 2011 season in Canada when Jenson was tailing him in the rain and he lost the back end for a slight moment, this was enough for our Jenson and he took him. The RB car has been so superior since that no one, from any team, has been able to get close enough to put the same pressure on him, so let's see what next year brings!! He actually is a nice guy too, I met him in 2010 in Abu Dhabi and we got talking about the circuit, we had a marshals pitts walk round on the Friday night and that's how I got to meet him, he gave me a Red Bull cap and he signed it along with the programme, a truly nice guy. Alonso just sped up his pace to avoid the fast approaching pack of autograph hungry marshals!!!! All in all, I love everything about F1, including the rivalry and passion, opposing opinions and following your heart, this makes the sport what it is! So thank you to everyone who's passionate enough to actually comment on this thread and keep it alive, sorry to the OP for the consistent hijack!!! I'll try and find my F1 photo's and post some more from Abu Dhabi over the weekend when I'm not a work skivving

Sorry I've missed this thread until now. Sorry also for my long reply. Going back to the OP's question…..Although I'm a landscape photographer primarily, I'm a huge motorsport fan. I compete in local motorsports (supersprints), and am a F1 junkie. I've gone to just about everyone of the F1 Aus Grand Prix since the mid-80s (Adelaide and Melbourne) and have photographed at Monza, Monte Carlo, Shanghai and Singapore. Have not done Sepang though, although I've driven past it a few times.My thoughts are:1. Preparation is key, and you'll get your best motor racing images on the Fri/Sat rather than race day. Study the map of the circuit and determine which is the best corner for images. If you can walk around the circuit on the Thursday so you can plan where to shoot when the F1s do the practice sessions on Fri and Sat. For example side on to a straight is generally useless, but head on can provide for some dramatic action. For panning, I like to find a slow corner, where the cars can accelerate from an initial relatively slow speed. This allows your AI servo /AF tracking to lock on easier than trying to lock on at 300km/hr. 2. Race day is a day to enjoy the race. Take your images during Fri and Sat practice or qualifying. If you can get a multistand ticket (diff stand Fri/Sat/Sun) that is great so all your photos don't look the same. However, a lot of venues allow you to go to any stand or any part of the circuit on a Friday. Also check out the entry criteria for photography. At the Aus GP max 300mm lens can be used, and they police white lens bigger than this (although you can mostly sweet talk your way around this). At Monza/MonteCarlo/Singapore – they don't care. Not sure about Malaysia. The ideal corner has a tight entry, opens out onto a long enough straight for you to get a smooth panning action going.3. A lot of the grand prix tracks, and I suppose Malaysia is no different, are surrounded by wire cage. It is often impossible to get above the wire to shoot in the corner you want, so I get as close to the wire as possible and shoot through it. Shoot with the lens wide open, get as close to the wire as possible, and avoid direct sunlight on the wire. The depth of field will render the wire virtually invisible. All my best images have been shot through the wire.4. Regarding focusing through the wire – I use the 1dx so the AF tracking (option 1 or 2) is exceptional. During panning, once the AF locks on, it just doesn't let go. My keeper rate is a lot higher than when I was using the 5d2 and even the 1d4. Yes you can manual focus to a predetermine part of the track, and this works if you want to freeze the car at 1/2000 etc. However I find static motorsports images fairly boring and prefer to pan. Once you pan, manual prefocusing is obviously problematic. Much better to use AI servo.5. If panning, shutter speeds will be in the order of 1/30 – 1/100, depending on the corner and the speed of the car. If you are shooting wide open to use DOF to render the wire invisible, your shot will be overexposed on bright days even at ISO 50-100. I therefore always carry some ND filters, Generally a 3 stop is enough. As my primary lens are the 300 f2.8 or the 400 f2.8, I carry drop in NDs. If using the 70-200, a front screw in 2-3 stop will be more than adequate.6. Although I have a 400 f2.8IS, and can shoot it hand held, or with a monopod, I find the 300 f2.8IS more versatile and more than enough at most tracks. You can shoot all day with it, don't need a monopod, can move quickly from corner to corner. Add a 1.4III extender if you need more reach. Also don't forget a wide angle for colour and atmosphere.Some of my images from G+:As I can't sell F1 images without permission, I don't have many on my website:Enjoy Sepang!https://plus.google.com/u/0/photos/109217461409629684011/albums/5927179593387000225https://plus.google.com/u/0/photos/109217461409629684011/albums/5786792556258311809https://plus.google.com/u/0/photos/109217461409629684011/albums/5660688069789823073https://plus.google.com/u/0/photos/109217461409629684011/albums/5721611848279568689


text: Unsettling blend of loud drums, distorted guitars and retro pulsating synths evoke the agony of a depressive episode before dropping into a tranquil, dream-like state with mellow guitar chords and riff. This is short-lived, as the drums escalate and bring back the moody synths and sound-effects reflecting the relentless torment of depression. This track has an indie, emo kind of feel, but is removed from that genre by the retro synthesizer.

World No. 1 Serena Williams opened defense of her Family Circle Cup title with a straight-set win today on Billie Jean King Court.
More coverage
For more coverage of the Family Circle Cup, go to www.postandcourier.com/familycirclecup.
Coming off a victory in the finals at the Sony Open on hardcourts in Miami on Saturday, Williams was not at her sharpest in her first match of the year on clay. But she was plenty good enough for a 6-2, 6-3 win over Italian Camila Giorgi in a second-round match.
"It was a bit awkward for me today," said Williams, a two-time FCC winner who could face 2009 champ Sabine Lisicki in the third round. "But it was good to get one under my belt."
Jelena Jankovic needed almost three hours today to outlast American Melanie Oudin and keep alive her hopes for a second Family Circle Cup title.
Jankovic, ranked No. 18, gutted out a 6-4, 5-7, 6-4 victory over the 21-year-old Oudin. Jankovic, seeded ninth, won the Family Circle Cup title in 2007, but had been 0-2 in her career against Oudin.
Rising American star Madison Keys, 18, moved to the second round with a 7-6, 6-4 win over Alexandra Cadantu.
American qualifier Vania King pulled off a first-round upset knocking off 14th-seeded Yaroslava Shvedova. King, ranked No. 136, rallied for a 4-6, 6-1, 6-4 win over the world's No. 37 player.
Earlier, 15th-seeded Sabine Lisicki got her chase for a second Family Circle Cup championship off to a fast start, sprinting to a first-round victory over Anna Tatishvili in just 41 minutes.
The 2009 Family Circle Cup champ won by 6-0, 6-0, on Billie Jean King Court, belting 26 winners to earn a second-round match with American qualifier Mallory Burdette.

The man accused in a July hit-and-run crash that killed one man and four dogs will now face a murder charge, a court spokesperson said Wednesday.
Paul Walden is suspected of being behind the wheel, causing the Carmichael wreck.
Gemily West was the only survivor. Her boyfriend, Harison Long-Randall, died of his injuries about two weeks after the crash. He was 21 years old.
Walden, 31, was in court again Wednesday morning.
The Sacramento County District Attorney's Office told KCRA 3 previously that a homicide charge was a possibility for Walden, whose criminal history includes three DUI arrests and at least two DUI convictions in the county.

While the wait is over for some Bond fans, for others it has just begun.
Today, the latest James Bond movie is released in theaters. On Tuesday, however, voters gave Greeley-Evans School District 6 what they wanted by way of an $8.2 million bond to help rebuild John Evans I.B. Middle School.
On Wednesday, district officials were left wondering if the bonds will be sold this year, next year or even at all.
"Whatever the final outcome, we remain hopeful that our grant will be fully funded this year or next year," said Wayne Eads, chief operations officer for the district. "There is no question that our community recognizes the need to replace the John Evans building. We are doing everything we can to encourage the (Building Excellent Schools Today) board to move our project into a fully funded status."
The district should have a final answer by Monday, said Ted Hughes, director of BEST program for the Colorado Department of Education.
Last spring, the district applied for the grant to help rebuild John Evans. The grant matches a certain percentage of the project cost based on several criteria set by the state. In District 6's case, the match is 72 percent, making the district's cost of the 90,000-plus square-foot school $8.2 million. The state will pick up the remaining $21.8 million of the overall $29 million cost.
The school district applied for the grant because the 50-year old John Evans building is falling apart. A new roof alone would cost $8 million.
The grant money is funded by revenue derived from state-owned land that is leased out for such things as oil and gas exploration and agriculture.
During the summer, however, the district learned it was second runner-up. Bond issues in two other districts needed to fail for Greeley to get matching funds. Of the 12 districts that had bond issues before the voters on Tuesday, only West End Re-2 School District in Montrose County failed. West End was to receive $12.5 million from BEST. Denver Public Schools was first runner-up with a $3.8 million grant, leaving about $7 million in unused funds.
However, Hughes said the board is trying to find a way to fund the project. He said one other district that was on the guaranteed list has other issues besides funding, and it may be taken off the list, moving Greeley another step closer to funds this year.
"Once we get totally comfortable with the bond elections, and we figure out if the other district is on or off the list, we will determine how many if any of the back-up projects we can fund," Hughes said. "It looks like we will be able to do something. But we won't know for sure until Monday, maybe sooner."
All is not lost, however, if the district comes up short this year. The bond election is good for two years. The BEST grant application process starts again in December and Eads said the district will reapply. Chances are good the district would move into a fully funded status because the matching funds will already be available.
"We've done all the work already," Eads said. "We'll just have to tweak the application, and the building will be another year older."
The bond amounts to $7.94 per year, per $100,000 of residential property value and $28.95 per year, per $100,000 of commercial property value. For the average resident that amounts to $1 per month.
If the district never secures the BEST grant funds, the bonds will not be issued, and there will be no tax increase.
Superintendent Ranelle Lang said getting the support of the community was an important step for the district.
"As much as this means to the staff and students at John Evans, this really is a victory for us all," she said. "The community said yes to schools. They said yes to our students. They said yes to our incredibly hard-working employees."

Rigid heddle weaving is more than fun. It's creative, relaxing and rewarding. When you weave, you bring together different yarns and fabrics and unify them in a single, unique project. Weaving is versatile: Make clothes, accessories and home decor in fibers from plain to fancy. Even if you've never touched a loom before, Angela Tong can teach you to make wonderful projects with rigid heddle weaving. This class will introduce you to two different looms, and guide you through preparation, the weaving process and a range of finishing techniques. You'll have fun and weave beautiful things!
Meet your instructor, Angela Tong, and learn more about what the class covers.
Angela goes over the two looms used in the class, the Cricket Loom and the Kromski Harp. Have a different loom? Many of the same principles will apply. Angela also discusses choosing the right yarn for your project.
Angela shows you how to calculate the amount of yarn you need for your project and how to direct warp onto the Cricket rigid heddle loom.
Now for the fun part -- actually weaving your scarf on the Cricket Loom! Angela demonstrates how to wind a shuttle, get started on the scarf project, finish the scarf and knot the fringe.
The Kromski Harp is a wider loom with features that let you wind a warp on the underside of the loom. Angela shows you how!
Take the bundle of warp threads and set them up on your Kromski Harp rigid heddle loom with Angela's guidance.
Angela shows how to weave and finish a beautiful tea towel.
In this bonus lesson, you'll learn different fringing techniques: braided fringe, decorative knot and twisted fringe.
"I owned my loom for over a year before this class, but was afraid to use it. I even took a class at a local yarn shop, but by the time I went to warp again, I had forgotten too much. This class goes at just the right pace. I love, love, love being able to go back and rewatch the videos. I will be starting my 4th project soon and I will still have Angela guiding me in the background, although I hope I can pretty much do it on my own. I guess having the video playing is like a security blanket. Thank you for this class."

There were robots, all right, but one wore a pink heart. Another took the popular Minecraft computer game as its inspiration, with its creator decked out as a "Creeper." Still another featured a glowing, purple "Tower of Terror," a pink flower perched at the top.
Not an R2-D2 or C-3PO to be found.
And that was the point for the local elementary school children who took part in ARTY, the Art, Robotics & Technology for Youth workshop held last week at Canisius College.
The workshop, part of the community engagement program of UB's Techne Institute for Arts and Emerging Technologies, was designed to provide an opportunity for children ages 9 to 12 to learn about and experiment with robot art projects, while discovering the possibilities of future careers in math, engineering and computer science.
What could be cooler than spending part of your summer vacation building your own special robot?
"By integrating the arts within a curriculum of basic computer programming, experimentation, circuitry and design, the workshop engaged many children and made robotics accessible to those with diverse interests and talents," says Sara Bay-Cheng, UB professor of theatre and dance and director of the Techne Institute.
The workshop was created and administered by Bay-Cheng, who teaches digital media and performance at UB. Debra Burhans, associate professor of computer science at Canisius, led the workshop; participants were instructed in computer programming and robot design by UB media study and electrical engineering students, as well as computer science students at Canisius.
Guest artists also attended the sessions, held July 8-12 in the Robotics Lab at Canisius, demonstrating the newest advances in robot technology to help the students imagine the possibilities for their own future creations, including their final project. For that final projects, students had to create and program a unique working robot, and design a performance and presentation.
The workshop concluded on July 12 with a "Parade of Robots" representing workshop participants' final projects.

CALCUTTA - Ten years after it was first opened, McGuffey Drive in Calcutta has changed St. Clair Township's traffic flow for the better, according to trustees.
Columbia Drive and the approximately 170 acres of land between McGuffey and state Route 170 also are seen by the trustees as holding great potential for economic development in the county's largest township.
Route 170, which turns into five lanes as it runs through Calcutta, is the busiest roadway in Columbiana County with St. Clair Avenue being the second busiest, according to trustee Robert Swickard. He noted that a traffic study done approximately three years ago showed 27,000 cars a day travel through this busy corridor. The same study, Swickard noted, showed McGuffey Drive accommodates some 6,000 cars a day that would also likely be using 170 if not for the alternate route it provides.

They announced last Tuesday that there appears to be funding available from ODOT to complete Columbia drive, which would connect Route 170 to McGuffey. (Photo by Devin Bezeredi)
"We were hoping to alleviate some of the passing-through traffic because if you eliminate some of that pass-through traffic that means some of the people who do have business there can get in and out easier, so it encourages people," said Swickard, noting that 10 percent of traffic on 170 was just passing through the area.
Trustees explained that traffic in St. Clair Township has "boomed" in recent years, and for that reason McGuffey Drive is an asset that will only become increasingly useful.
Economic development along McGuffey, however, has been slower than trustees had expected due to, they say, the economic downturn in 2008. But the prospects for further development, as well as on the potentially adjoining Columbia Drive, look better than ever.
"When 2008 came and the economy suffered the way it did, all these companies put a hold on development, but at the same time when it starts to recover, and it appears it will, who knows what the gas and oil will do for us here," said trustee James Sabatini II.
Crestview AutoBody has been the only business to set up shop along McGuffey thus far and "appears to be doing well," according to board chairmen James Hall.
There has been some talk throughout the years of several large businesses locating on property along McGuffey, but trustees are cautiously optimistic about the county's ever-expanding oil and gas industry bringing businesses to the area.
"It's not going to happen over night, but I think in three-to-five years that something is going to happen to spur this economy on with gas and oil," said Hall.
Whatever the future holds for McGuffey Drive and the surrounding property, trustees say they feel good knowing the infrastructure already is in place to accommodate whatever business might be interested in locating there - utilities already are available along the corridor.
The township leaders remain particularly optimistic when it comes to the future of Columbia Drive, which currently only uses about 600 feet of roadway where it intersects 170 near the entrance to Challenger Drive.
Trustees reported at the Feb. 12 meeting that they met with ODOT officials in Columbus during an annual conference for township officials in January. The meeting yielded some encouraging news regarding funding for further development of Columbia Drive.
"We're pretty confident it's going to be a project that's going to take off this coming year," said Hall. "They pretty much assured us that there is funding available."
Funding for the completion of the project would come from a combination of loans and grants from different government sources such as OMEGA, ARC, the Ohio Department of Development (ODOD) and ODOT.
Some steps remain for the township to take before trustees can apply for funding to finish the project. Some of that process includes environmental studies required by the EPA, and an updated project cost. Swickard said wetland mitigation studies have already been completed, as well as the necessary engineering for the roadway.
Once completed, Columbia Drive would connect 170 to McGuffey Drive.
The original access road portion of Columbia Drive was completed in 2010, and completely funded by a $750,000 ODOD grant.
"The infrastructure is there and the signalization is there," said Sabatini. "This is something that a developer would of had to invest in for themselves. We as a township got a grant to do that so it didn't cost taxpayers anything."

WARREN - The Tribune Chronicle Page One journalism workshops will begin a new session at 6 p.m. Thursday.
High school students in grades 9 to 12 interested in journalism, photography or simply improving their writing skills should attend the first meeting to be held at the newspaper's office, 240 Franklin St. S.E.
In the workshops, students will develop writing, interviewing, researching and other skills.
Workshops will be held the first and third Thursdays of each month. The workshops' goal is to give teens the opportunity to be published in Page One, a section front that runs each week in the Tribune.
As the students progress, they may receive an invitation to join the Page One staff, which edits and plans the page. Some teens use their training to improve their school's student newspaper.
Parents are invited to the first meeting, which will last about one hour. The cost of joining is $25.
Page One has been nationally recognized as one of the premier teen sections in the United States. Page One and the workshops together form the No. 1 teen journalism program in the United States, according to the Newspaper Association of America Foundation.
Many past Page One staffers have obtained admissions into prestigious universities, college scholarships and internships.

"We can endure this for a little longer, but for the children it is impossible," said Hanan Daher, 18, who sought relief from a blazing sun under the shade of a tree in Samayeh public park, which has become one of the largest temporary shelters.
Her 3-year-old sister, Meriem, lay in her lap, moving only to swat a fly from her face or hair. Meriem, who normally drives her sister crazy with chitchat, hasn't spoken a word since she and her family fled their southern Lebanon town after a neighbor's house was flattened by a bomb six days ago.
"What we really want is for this terror to stop," Daher said. "We are civilians, not fighters."
About 400 people who now live in the park rely on a group of energetic volunteers for food and medicine. Yesterday, children swarmed a relief worker who handed out juice boxes and chips. Nearly half walked away empty-handed.
The people in the park were just a fraction of the 750,000 Lebanese who have fled their homes since the fighting began nearly two weeks ago.
The volunteers tending to the refugees said they have been relying on public and private donations to keep the relief going. Their supplies are being strained by the unending stream of people arriving every day.
"We hope that we can sustain this for weeks and months if we need to," said volunteer Sarjoun Kantar, 23. "But the hope is that we won't need to."
At the Amilieh School in Beirut, about 1,000 people have moved into classrooms and hallways.
The school's principal, Mohamad Taha, said a ceasefire would surely stem the humanitarian crises that dwindling supplies could trigger. But even then, there is a massive logistical problem.
"I've already taken into account that even if there is a ceasefire today, we would have to keep the center running for at least a week or 10 days," said Taha, who has taken on the role of the camp's administrator. "Most of these people don't have homes anymore."
Those at the school complained less of their day-to-day discomfort as much as having to languish without knowing when the fighting will end. But there was no question as to where their loyalty and anger lie.
"Bush's democracy has the blood of children on its hands," said Rabab, a 36-year-old from Majdal Zoon, a Hezbollah stronghold known locally as the Village of the Martyrs. "We are prepared to be [at the refugee centers] for months as long as our pride is preserved. Hezbollah is fighting for the pride of our nation."
Hussein Salman, 21, said his uncle and his cousin died fighting the Israeli forces.
"Losing my home does not hurt as much as losing my relatives," he said. "But they died resisting, and that gives me a lot of the strength I have during this difficult time.

"Oh Love" uncut version at Playboy.com: HERE
Filed under:21
For the record, why do you guys hate on this video? It really isn't degrading to women. Greenday is a rock band, they have lived the rockstar life. I love the new video the girls in it are hot and greenday's members probably have had crazy nights with lots of girls, which sounds awesome. What the hell is everyone's problems, downtalking greenday. I was not expecting these albums and some songs are really cool. I think everyone needs to calm down. I love the girls, green day is cooler in my book for making this video. i wish i was in the video with all those girls.
I also love that green day still represents on mtv. We need more great rock bands on mtv. I look forward to hearing and seeing more green day. I think the video is badass and epic at the same time.
THIS VIDEO is not participating in the sexualization of women. I think it is portraying (probably pretty accurately) what some nights for this band are like.
An explicit version? Hmm I'm
An explicit version? Hmm I'm really curious now. What does that mean? Nudity? Sex? All of the above? Maybe I should just watch the damn thing already. But this also brings up a whole new issue-rock & roll is kinda sexist in general. I mean how many rocking female bands can you name? I am struggling to come up with five.
I think my reaction is
I think my reaction is appropriate.
At the end of the day music videos are advertisements.They are promoting their new album and this song. They invested money in it, and there will be a return on that investment. Its a marketing ploy. If you think its okay to use women that way- to sell something .Go ahead. If you think there is no negative affect in society from videos and other form of media like this GO LOOK IT UP. There is. For the love of anything you hold dear, please look it up.
There is nothing wrong with sex. Nothing wrong with nudity. There is nothing shameful about the human form. Its a beautiful thing. But it must not be exploited. And I do see that happening in this video.
This sort of thing happens all the time. I just cant believe Green Day - a band I always regarded as feminist did this. Maybe they did it so I can not pay attention to how mediocre the song is.
I think that everybody is
I think that everybody is really overreacting to this.
If you say the women are being used and it's trashy, you're being too sensitive. Like FA84 said, they aren't having sex or degrading them, there's no violence. Nudity isn't a bad thing. It's one thing that everybody has in common.
Beans - I understand your point about women being sexualized in the media. That's not what's happening here. It's fun and lighthearted and dare I say, a bit naughty, but there's no abuse, no violence, and no sex going on.
I think they should have
I think they should have called this song: Oh sex... Oh sex...
Ok what i really think is that i would have never expected to see this kind of videos from green day, but maybe they just wanted to made one of this kind, just to made a video like this, not to offend anybody, but after years of "normal" videos, just to made one like this and nothing else!!! Just to make a change!!!
I dont see how sex can have a
I dont see how sex can have a negative effect..? Maybe if you start to call woman b****es and wh**es, but this is just very innocent compared to other music videos by other artists. But sex means different things for different cultures.
Anyway I liked the video and are very glad that Green Day now did a non political album in pure dookie style.
this might get deleted but
this might get deleted but hey:
@F484. Obviously you didnt
@F484. Obviously you didnt read all of the comments, otherwise you would have gotten your answer for the question "whats wrong with playing with girls?" Go search "sexualization of women in the media". Search the effects of that. Watch a documentary about it. You'll have your answer. Its more objective than it is subjective in that the outcome of it is never one that is positive. But Maybe, you're right. Maybe I am taking it seriously. But when I see this, I fear for my sisters, my friends and the future of women. If if this rock band that has spent decades bring women UP, changed and now uses woman as props and as a promotion to SELL THEIR PRODUCT then what hope do I have for anyone else? I thought green day was against mass media. I see they gave in.
If your getting upset over
If your getting upset over this music video then I feel sorry for you. Its not porn, its not abusing woman, its not violent. What are you upset about?
and to those who say it's
and to those who say it's just rock'n'roll, its not, we do not love rock music because of what is in this video, and that in my opinion one of the most ignorant things you could possibly say to other fans that are upset about this.
This is Rock n Roll kids, sex
This is Rock n Roll kids, sex and booze is part of it. Whats wrong with guys playing with girls anyway? Now stop whining god dammit! XXX.
We aren't hammering them and
We aren't hammering them and we definitely do not hate them, we wouldn't even be here sharing how we feel if we did, but we are just very upset, hurt and disappointed that this happened and at the fact that just as we were trying to get over it, the band decided it would be great to promote the video, that we already find distasteful enough, with a porn company.
As a lot of people have stated, we don't just love Green Day for the music, but for the people that they are and how much they have influenced our lives and helped us get through some of the hardest times in it. To me they are like the family I never had, and many of my personal beliefs come from them.
I know it's probably asking too much, but it would be very helpful if Green Day were to somehow show that they are sorry to the fans that were upset by the whole situation, I know some people weren't but the reality is that a lot of people were, even if it was just a small apology it would help.
We all know they are so much better than this, and the last thing they would say to us would be along the lines of "we do whatever we wan't, if you don't like it, too bad.
Wow, have to say im a little
Wow, have to say im a little disappointed by the video being hosted on playboy (low standards) but whatever. Man you guys are really hammering them! I mean i can understand your frustration with the depiction of women, but their a ROCK BAND. The whole sexual representation of women isn't new in rock, and I don't really think their showing women in an extremely, demeaning light here. The song itself is mainly about having fun at a late party and letting sexual desires take over you. The video, while not very good, depicts that. I certainly wouldn't hate them for this. But my opinion.

green day is forever my favourite band but i have to say that im disappointed. the music video was ok because its not like the girls was all over them but playboy? raely? i just hope that the rest of uno will be less playboy and more green day.

Your critical comments have been deleted from the first release of the video? Nice to know. I'm glad other people agree. Thank you for speaking out about this.
If people think "oh this is just a video". They are NAIVE. The imagery of women today is one that is constantly sexuality in advertisements, tv shows, the real world, the work place, school ect. This video perpetuates that!! It keeps women DOWN. Objectifying women is the first step to domestic violence. The number one killer of women in the United States. Wake the eff up, people.
What the hell happened? These
What the hell happened? These people used to be my role models. They stood up for awesome things (like equality, peace and freedom), and said fuck you to fucked up things (like sexism, Bush and greedy politicians). I thought it couldn't get any worse when you posted the first video for Oh Love, but now?? You are willingly putting your name up there with one of the most sexism-fueling forces in our part of the world, a shabby porn magazine. On their website they are encouraging you to bring topless girls on tour. Do you realize what kind of a message that sends to young fans without a good self confidence to fall back on? At first I was enraged, but now I'm just sick to my stomach with disappointment. I guess my days of bragging about my favorite band to all who would listen are over. There is nothing left about you to brag about. I agree with all previous speakers about this video. I can't imagine how your wives, daughters, friends, moms and sisters feel about this, but I find it even harder to imagine how you people can do this to the women in your lives. Funny thing by the way, I read the comments for Oh love in the vid-section aweek or two ago, but for some reason I can't read them anymore. I posted one as well. They were all very critical. Coincidence? I think not. I haven't even seen any response to this on your website!! When your die-hard fans are nothing but critical, hurt and disappointed with you, you're doing something wrong. It's time to shape up Green Day, without us you are nothing.
Yes, I get the concept and
Yes, I get the concept and its relation to the song. But I've been a green day fan since I was 9. If I saw this video (the regular censored one) as a 9 year old girl I'd be confused about myself. I know that because I felt that way when I stumbled upon videos like this one with women being used like this. And now as a 22 year old woman I'm at a loss. Tre and Mike have daughters. And they all have wives. Come on. Would they want that for them? They've regressed. Lyrically, mentally, and emotionally. I don't feel anything listening to this song or a few other songs I've heard from iUno!
Side note: I know the title "she" come from a poem. Its good that there is no name in this song because is allows any person who relates to fill themselves in that song. Then "Last of the american girls" does the same thing as a song on its own but in the album as a whole we know the song is about Gloria. Such beautiful kick-ass songs about complex women.
I don't know. Like I said, I've been a die-hard fan of green day for almost 14 years. I love them. But I cant pretend to like what I have heard so far and especially this video. I'll listen to the rest of Uno when it comes out on the 25th with an open mind. Peace
you are absolutely right and
you are absolutely right and it's true that they aren't normally like that, the song is great but i wish too that it won't happen again ...
whatever green day is my favourite band
I completely agree with every word, very well said.
It's sad to see them like this and I honestly hope it won't happen again, it really breaks my heart to see my hero's and biggest influences of all time doing something like this.. They really are so much better than this.
Yes, normally they aren't
Yes, normally they aren't like this, but still, you have to look at it from the meaning (or what I take to be the meaning) of the song. In the video they are obviously drunk, and its showing the amount of control you have over "love" when this happens, and they are stopping themselves from actually falling in love, that's why the women don't have names, or stories like in "She" or "Last of the American Girls". It is a bit disappointing but it has a reason for it.
Im disappointed in GD. I
Honestly, I'm disappointed in Green Day. I always put them up on a pedestal in regards to their depiction of women. For romantic songs like "2000 Light Years Away" to "Last Night on Earth". For Songs that empathized with women like "She" and "Why Do You Want Him". Songs about revolutionary women with minds of their own like "Maria", "She's a Rebel", "Last of the American Girls" and "Westbound Sign" .Now I see this misogynistic video and it breaks my heart. These women are being used as props and demeaned. No story line. No names. They are just in the video to please the lusting eyes of whom ever watches this video. I know green day is not here to please me nor I them. But that's how I feel. I wonder if anyone feels the same?

Chris and I had a family membership for several years, so I was already very familar with Longwood Gardens. Pierre S. Du Pont bought the former farmland in 1906 because he didn't want all of the trees to be cut down and turned into horse carriages or golf clubs or whatever people used wood for back then. Pierre preserved the land and turned it into a magical place with a huge conservatory, open air theater, Italian fountains and every plant and flower you can imagine. Over one thousand acres of indoor and outdoor gardens.
During Christmas in the 1940s, Pierre and his wife Alice would host grand celebrations for all of the Longwood employees and their families. They would give gifts to each of the many children in attendance.
In 1957, Longwood Gardens opened their Christmas celebration to the public and all hell broke loose. People would travel from all over the country to see the spectacular spectacle that is Christmas at Longwood Gardens. I visited on a Saturday night a few years ago, and it seemed that everyone from the state of Pennsylvania had the same idea.
But when I visited Longwood last week, on a Thursday night, it was a completely different experience - and not because I drank too many star-tinis. The crowds were slim. I didn't see any moms battling for room on the walkways with their strollers. It was actually peaceful, and I was able to enjoy all of the Christmas displays. Like the 1,600 handcrafted star-shaped ornaments. And the Christmas trees decorated by the students of local elementary schools. And the 500,000 twinkling outdoor lights - including the illuminated full-size trees that were floating in the lake. I still haven't figured out how they did that.
My favorite part was the table-for-48 that was set for a Christmas celebration, similar to the Du Ponts of old. I bet the person who folded all those napkins is riddled with carpel-tunnel syndrome.
I'm planning to bring my kids and Chris back to Longwood next week, on one of the off-peak nights - preferably Tuesday through Thursday. They love the indoor Children's Garden and the Garden Railway. And I've always had a special place in my heart for the employees at the Children's Garden who have secret stashes of towels for the rowdy kids who stick their heads in the children's fountains. Other people's kids. Not mine.
Longwood is a lovely place to visit any time of year, but visiting in December really gets you into the holiday spirit. And take my advice - avoid the weekends, if possible! Leave work early or do whatever you have to do to get there during the week. I promise - your experience will be so much better. It's cheaper during the week, so there's that, too. Off-peak days are Monday-Friday, except for December 26-31. There are a few Mondays that are members-only days - December 10th & 17th. If you aren't a member, you will need to buy timed tickets online. It's an easy process, but you should plan ahead to make sure there are tickets available for the day you want to visit.
Before your visit to Longwood, you should also consider a stroll through downtown Kennett Square, the quintessential American main street (and, lucky for me, only five minutes from my home). Great restaurants, vintage shops (Scout & Annie and Green-Eyed Lady) and, always a freshvintage favorite, a wine-tasting room! It's also the home of world-famous Talula's Table - a gourmet food market that closes its doors at 7pm and becomes a one-table restaurant. Every foodie's dream.
If you are planning a trip to Longwood, and you need any other advice about area restaurants, antique shops, etc., feel free to email me with questions. Longwood Christmas runs until January 6, 2013.
In exchange for being a Longwood Gardens Star Blogger (and telling you about a place that I was already in love with), I received compensation from Longwood Gardens. My opinions are my own, as usual.
And, if you visit this Christmas, tell them that Colleen from freshvintage sent you, and they will give me free mums for life. Just kidding - don't do that.

When at an intersection, something that is 'kitty corner' to another will be on the opposite quadrant diagonally from the other. If you had, for example, the emipre state building on the top left, the sears tower on the top right, the freedom tower on the bottom left, and the transamerica tower on the bottom right-- the empire state building would be 'kitty corner' to the transamerica tower.

Although the pair hadn't been photographed together in recent days, a source close to the actress, 26, tells PEOPLE, "They were happy and very in love."
Michele has not spoken publicly yet about her boyfriend's death, but her rep told PEOPLE in a statement on Sunday: "We ask that everyone kindly respect Lea's privacy during this devastating time."
During the course of their relationship of more than a year, Michele gushed to PEOPLE about her Glee costar, 31.
"I love working with Cory, I always have," she said late last year. "He really, really inspires me, and he motivates me and I think he's just so talented. Working with him has been one of the best experiences of this whole process."
The actress notably stood by her man's side when he voluntarily entered a month-long treatment program in April for substance addiction.
The following month, the pair were photographed vacationing together in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico.
Fans of Monteith's may make donations in his name to three charities that were especially important to him: Project Limelight Society, which exposes youth living in Vancouver's Downtown Eastside to the arts; Virgin Unite, founded to support entrepreneurial efforts to better the world; and Chrysalis, which helps homeless and low-income individuals find employment.

Can Cadillac-Driving Don Draper Relate to Chevy Vega Buyers?
This is an "off" week for cars in the Mad Men series. Don Draper and his advertising-firm colleagues made no mention of the Chevrolet account or the new car they are tasked with promoting. But there was one decent automotive scene, and it got me thinking about the reality of the compact-car market in the late 1960s.
When Don stopped for gas at a rural filling station he stepped out of his Cadillac Coupe De Ville with an upper-crust confidence that seemed to confirm he and the huge, flashy ride belonged together. He runs into his ex-wife Betty at the station, and she's driving a '65 (or maybe a '66) Ford Country Squire wagon. While not exactly fancy, Betty's car is worthy of the Preppy Handbook.
Small cars, however, were for the poor, the young and the entry-level. A cheap, diminutive model like the Chevrolet Vega does not strike me as Draper's sort of car. Could he take the Vega seriously enough to give it the proper creative marketing treatment?
Would he take Joan Holloway out on the town in such a car the way he did in the sleek, sophisticated and beautiful Jaguar E-Type last year?
Still, the Vega might remind Draper of his less well-to-do roots or even his days as a car salesman. Convincing people to buy the little Chevy could be just another of the challenges that seem to keep him going. But I'm not convinced his heart is really in it.

Boehringer Ingelheim will join Zhangjiang Biotech & Pharmaceutical Base Development Co. (ZJ Base) in building a €35 million ($45 million) cGMP biopharmaceuticals facility in Pudong, Shanghai, the companies said.
Up to 65 jobs will be based at the new facility, which will be the first established by a leading international biopharmaceuticals manufacturer in China to use mammalian cell culture technology. The facility will include technical process development as well as cGMP manufacturing, and will be ready for operations in early 2016.
"With a number of innovative medicines being developed by a cluster of middle to small-sized innovative companies in Zhangjiang, plus the government support, we plan to initiate the CMO manufacturing framework at this plant on a trial basis," Lanzhong Wang, ZJ Base's general manager, said yesterday in a statement. "This will provide an effective platform for middle and small-sized companies to industrialize their innovations. Thus, it will greatly prompt the development of China's biopharmaceuticals manufacturing industry."
Boehringer Ingelheim has stepped up contract manufacturing activity, even rebranding what was Boehringer Ingelheim Biopharma Contract Manufacturing into Boehringer Ingelheim BioXcellence™. The company hopes its new name will persuade smaller drug developers it can provide an entire production technology chain from DNA to fill and finish under one roof at its facilities in Biberach (Germany), Vienna (Austria), and Fremont (USA).
Christian Boehringer, chairman of Boehringer Ingelheim's shareholders committee, said in the statement that the company's partnership with ZJ Base "is an important step in our global China strategy, as it opens a further opportunity for Boehringer Ingelheim to participate in the growing demand for high-quality biopharmaceuticals in China."
The new facility will expand the presence Boehringer Ingelheim has had since 1994 in China. The company carries out research, development, manufacturing, and marketing activities in the world's most populous nation, where it finished last year with €358 million ($472.5 million) in sales, up 32% from 2011 but still a small piece of BI's €14.7 billion in total sales worldwide ($19.4 billion).
Two years ago, Boehringer Ingelheim said it would spend €70 million ($91 million at the time) to expand an existing company plant at Shanghai's Zhangjiang High-Tech Park that opened in 2002 at a cost of $41 million. Shanghai is also home to other company operations, including the Asian Veterinary R&D center, where more than 30 scientists were working on improved vaccines for China and Southeast Asia at the end of 2012; and a chemical Center of Competence (CoC) opened in 2010.
China's 12th Five-Year Plan (2011–15) identified biopharma as one of seven strategic sectors expected to comprise a combined 8% of GDP. China hopes to expand its biopharma workforce from 250,000 to 1 million jobs by 2015.

WASHINGTON – The bombs that tore through a crowd of spectators at the Boston Marathon could have cost as little as $100 to build and were made of the most ordinary ingredients – so ordinary that investigators could face a gargantuan challenge in attempting to use bomb forensics to find the culprit.
Investigators revealed Tuesday that fragments recovered at the blast scene suggest a simple design: a common pressure cooker of the kind found at most discount stores, packed with an explosive and armed with a simple detonator.
A final ingredient – a few handfuls of BBs, nails and pellets – helped ensure widespread casualties when the two devices exploded Monday near the race's finish line, law enforcement officials said.
The devices' design was immediately recognized by counterterrorism experts as a type touted by al-Qaida for use by its operatives around the world. Similar devices have been used by terrorists in mass-casualty bombings in numerous countries, from the Middle East to South Asia to North Africa.
Yet the bombs' simplicity and garden-variety ingredients complicate the task of determining whether the maker was an international terrorist, a homegrown extremist or a local citizen with a grudge, investigators and experts say.
"This is going to take a very long time," said a federal law enforcement official involved in examining the deadliest bombing on U.S. soil in nearly two decades. The official spoke on the condition of anonymity to discuss an active investigation.
The FBI agent leading the inquiry, Richard DesLauriers, said as much at a news conference Tuesday. "We are doing this methodically, carefully, yet with a sense of urgency," he said.
The simple bomb design could imply that the maker was an amateur, incapable of acquiring more sophisticated materials, veteran investigators and forensics experts said. But they said it also could be the work of a sophisticated bomb maker taking great care to cover his tracks.
"He might deliberately choose to use a less sophisticated device because he knows the explosives will be harder to trace," said Robert Liscouski, a former Homeland Security assistant secretary now with Implant Sciences, a company that makes bomb-detection devices. "It's what you would expect of someone who wants to carry out more of these attacks."
What appeared certain was that the bombs unleashed a relatively modest explosive force, compared with more lethal improvised explosive devices or suicide bombs used in Iraq or Afghanistan. Yet the twin explosions were powerful enough to shatter windows and sever the limbs of multiple bystanders who were close to them.
The fact that the bombs were not powerful enough to gouge craters in the sidewalk or inflict structural damage on nearby buildings suggested to some investigators that they used a common explosive such as black gunpowder, rather than something like plastic explosive. Black powder is widely sold at sporting goods and discount stores.
DesLauriers said pieces of the bombs and residue have been sent for testing at the FBI's laboratory at Quantico, Va.
Other experts said they suspect that a single person or small group was likely behind the attack, in part because there has been no claim of responsibility. Several international terrorist groups, including the Pakistani Taliban, have so far disavowed having any role in Monday's bombing.
"The location of the explosive devices in the crowd at the finish line indicates that the intent was to cause mass casualties rather than targeting specific individuals or assets," said Alexia Ash, head of forecasting in North America for Exclusive Analysis.
Ash said the culprit clearly achieved "effective operational security ... as well as the capability to construct several small but effective IEDs."

LOYSBURG - Braden Hengst hadn't scored a point for Chestnut Ridge in the Lions' past two games and had just four points combined over his last four games.
Hengst doubled that output Wednesday night and provided the spark Chestnut Ridge needed to move into the driver's seat of the Sideling Hill League title race.
The Lions led by 10 points entering the fourth quarter and held off Northern Bedford County, 57-54.

Mirror photo by Patrick Waksmunski
Chestnut Ridge's Matt Wiley puts up a shot around Northern Bedford's Tayler Pressel.
"[Hengst] was huge," Chestnut Ridge coach Randy Meck said. "From the beginning of the year, Braden would be the first to tell you that he's unhappy with the minutes he got this year, but what I have noticed in the past three weeks is that he's starting to work harder at practice and add something to his game."
The junior guard had back-to-back 3-pointers in the first quarter to give Chestnut Ridge a lead it never relinquished and added another key layup in the second quarter when the Panthers pulled within two.
Ridge (16-5, 11-2 in Sideling Hill) must defeat Everett at home Friday to clinch sole possession of the Sideling Hill title. If the Lions lose, they will share the championship with NBC (17-4, 11-3 in Sideling Hill).
"We're one win away from winning our first Sideling Hill title ever at Chestnut Ridge," Meck said. "We set a goal at the beginning of the year to win a league title and a district title, and those goals haven't changed."
Ridge completed a regular-season sweep of Northern Bedford, though both games went down to the wire. The Lions won, 61-60, in New Paris earlier this season and held off a late NBC rally.
The same scenario took place Wednesday.
Northern Bedford used a suffocating full-court press to force 20 Chestnut Ridge turnovers and got clutch 3-pointers down the stretch to pull within two with 24.3 seconds left.
"In hindsight, yeah we should have went to the press earlier," said Northern Bedford coach Barry Crawford, who was denied his 200th career coaching win. "I think they have some seniors and good ball-handlers, so they aren't an easy team to press but desperation made our press a little better."
Ben Pick made one of two foul shots at the line with 20.6 seconds left to set up the final possession of the game.
The Black Panthers missed a pair of contested 3-pointers, but each time the ball went out of bounds off Ridge. With 1.6 seconds left, Garret England inbounded the ball and got it right back in the corner for an open look to tie the game. England's shot went halfway down before spinning out.
"Northern Bedford made some very tough shots," Meck said. "I thought England's shot in the final seconds was in from the corner, but I thought we did a great job on the boards. That was the difference."
The Lions outrebounded Northern Bedford, 40-33, and the 6-foot-4 Pick led the way with 13.
"I knew the pressure was on me, so I had to pull together and focus," Pick said. "I feel this is the best the team has played since we started, and we should go far once the playoffs start."
Both teams got balanced scoring from several players. Adam Wiley led Ridge with 13 points, Matt Wiley added 11 points and Beau Bosch had 10 points and 10 rebounds. Northern Bedford got 13 points each from Blake Over and Tayler Pressel and 10 points from Zane Snyder.
"We have a big game Saturday against Bellwood-Antis for the Inter-County Conference championship," Crawford said. "The kids are looking forward to that, and I think we're playing OK.
"Chestnut Ridge is a good team. They give us some matchup problems, but we're in a good place right now."
CHESTNUT RIDGE (57): M. Wiley 3 4-5 11, T. Wiley 0 3-4 3, Bosch 5 0-1 10, Pick 2 5-10 9, A. Wiley 5 2-2 13, Hengst 3 0-0 8, Weyant 1 0-0 3. Totals - 19 14-22 57.

Pains in my heart for unknown things. To be revealed some time to be sure not worth the worry.
I want to do so much. SO much. And I'm not even talking about great things like traveling the world or feeding the hungry. I want to do my dishes. I want to mop my floor. I want to MAKE MY BED for heaven's sake.
In a way, it's nice that I am stuck here at my computer chair with a sleeping baby on my chest. I can't remember the last time she slept on me like this. So I kiss her head and plow through weeks of unanswered emails.
Part of the chair is digging into my back and it feels kinda good. I had an ache there.
The older boys will be home soon and I have nothing to show for my day. While I cleaned up one mess, two more were made. The cycle is really getting to me this week. I want out.
And I shame myself, shame shame. How rotten of me to complain.
It's a common struggle, I know I am not alone. But that doesn't make it any easier to bear.
At least not today.

Oops, something didn't work.
Very interesting video. The highlights for me were
(1) the advantages declarative workflows have over opaque code in the light of Oslo and models in general.
(2) Thinking of the Oslo repository not only as a 'runtime' store of models that are executable but also as a store of models in general that can be picked up and assembled into a composite application
(3) Thinking of WF as a declarative 'glue' that can still play nicely with other business objects
(4) the discussions on some ways of looking at Cloud computing and where it can fit in.
Nice work guys...

I am quite excited with the prospects Oslo and "M" is going to bring about in WF 4.0. Declaring a domain model on language constructs which can be treated as activities underneath is quite exciting. This is going to bring text based workflows to forefront
something which was very challenging in WF 3.0.
The other thing I am equally excited about is the new activity designer on WPF. People who have tried tweaking activity designer on .NET 3.0 using GDI+ will understand the pain they had to go through to make just simple things work.
Well Done!!!

text: Velcade, an inhibitor of the 20S proteasome, is a first line therapy for Multiple Myeloma. However, it's toxic to patients and thus its effectiveness is limiting and patients often relapse. These toxicities likely develop because the 20S proteasome is an essential enzyme that regulates most cellular process. Recently, we've discovered a new way to inhibit the proteasome—by blocking its regulator. Drugs that work in this new way will block some of its functions, but not all, and so we hope that this new type of proteasome inhibitor may be less toxic and thus more effective for treating Multiple Myeloma.
