Agamemnon (Brian Cox) is uniting all Greec kingdoms into one huge empire. He's almost succeeded in his mission except for Troy which remains independent. When the Trojan princes Paris (Orlando Bloom) and his brother Hector (Eric Bana) visit Agamnon's brother Menelaos (Brendan Gleeson), Paris falls in love with Helen (Diane Kruger), Menelaos wife. The two of them decide to stay together and head back to Troy where they are welcomed by their father Priamus (Peter O'Toole) who accepts his sons actions although he knows what will come of them. Agamemnon finds this the perfect excuse to declare war to Troy and he gathers all his forces for a large scale invasion. All his soldiers together will not be sufficient however without the help of the legendary Achilles (Brad Pitt) who doesn't care about Agamemnon but instead only fights for eternal glory.
When the army lands on the beach in front of Troy, it's Achilles' forces that capture it. They invade a tempel of the god Apollo and capture Briseis (Rose Byrne), a niece of Hector and Paris, who will become slave of Achilles. Agamemnon however claims Briseis for himself and unleashes the wrath of Achilles who denies to continue fighting for him. Meanwhile, Paris suggests to stop the blood shed and proposes a fight between him and Menelaos with Helen as the prize for the winner. However, Paris gets defeated easily and Hector has to intervene to prohibit his brother to be killed which results in the killing of Menelaos. This is the ultimate excuse for Agamemnon to continue the attack on Troy and he orders his troop to start a huge fight but Troy's forces are incapable of taking the city without the help of Achilles and his troops.
When Achilles' cousin Patroclos (Garrett Hedlund) decides to fight for the honor of Greece disguised as Achilles, he gets killed by Hector. This event brings out the worst in Achilles and he decides to take on Hector himself. After a brief fight, Troy's hero gets killed and Achilles decides to have his army return to Greece while he himself will take part in a final battle against Troy where he'll try to save Briseis (who he has regained and released): King Odysseus (Sean Bean) has a plan to make a wooden horse that will be given to the Trojans as evidence of respect but in fact will be a trap that's filled with soldiers who'll open the gates of Troy to let the Greec army in and take over the city.
Sound and Vision:
Warner is known for delivering quality in their huge budget movies and this isn't any different. We do get to see some moiré effects from time to time but overall the image quality is more than good. The colors have a rather brown/yellow filter and are therefore very warm. The amount of detail is at all times extremely high and I didn't notice any compression errors or damage/scratches. A very good image quality that nicely portrays the huge battles we get to see.
The soundtrack is Dolby Digital 5.1 and I must confess that I'm a bit disappointed that Warner against didn't add a DTS track to the DVD. However, when it comes to Dolby Digital this is about the best you can get. A terrific track with lots of split-surround, lots of details and action supported by a good amount of bass from the subwoofer while dialogues are nicely coming from the center speaker and are at all times clear and understandable. The accompanying music is also very present and adds to the atmosphere.
We checked out the single disc version and this one doesn't contain any real extras. The 2-disc special edition has three short features which makes us wonder whether you should pay extra for it.
The opinions on Troy are mixed. A lot of critics find it unacceptable that a lot of the facts that are written down in the Illias are scrapped for the movie. The influence of the gods is hardly present that Patroclos wasn't Achilles nephew but his gay friend and that the war in total was 7 years and not a couple of weeks are just a couple of differences in the story. However, that doesn't make Troy a bad movie at all. Think of it as a huge spectacle film and not some historically correct epos. How believable would it be that Brad Pitt is gay ? No, Wolfgang Peterson did a good job in transfering the Illias to a more modern and believable tale and the way Troy has been put on the screen is done great and certainly makes it an entertaining movie that can almost be ranked amongst Gladiator and Spartacus

Pumpkin Doughnuts
I came across a recipe for baked pumpkin doughnuts that looked so irresistibly tender and soft, I knew I had to try them right away. The recipe is from King Arthur's Flour, and I've had a lot of success with their recipes.
The blog post was as convincing as the photos, stating "If you're going to bake just ONE THING this month (or this week, or today – choose your preferred frequency)…Let it be these pumpkin-cinnamon doughnuts."
The doughnuts are supposed to be made in a regular baked donut pan. I actually didn't realize that I don't have a standard donut pan until halfway into the recipe. I have mini donut pans and all this time I assumed I had a regular one. Oops. So I made mini ones instead.
The donuts did come out as tender as I thought they'd be. Taste wise, these were good but I don't think they are the best baked donut recipe I've had. I didn't love them as much as the recipe taste tester. I like this pumpkin donut muffin recipe I made last year a little better in terms of taste, though these definitely had a nicer texture.
Baked Pumpkin Doughnuts
1/2 cup vegetable oil
3 large eggs
1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
1 1/2 cups pumpkin purée (canned pumpkin)
1 1/2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1 3/4 cups + 2 tablespoons all purpose flour
Cinnamon Sugar mixture
3/4 cup sugar
2 tsp cinnamon
1. Preheat oven to 350F. Grease donut pans.
2. In a large bowl, beat everything together except flour until smooth. Add in flour and stir until just smooth.
3. Pour donut batter into molds about 3/4 filled. Bake 15-18 for regular donuts (9-10 minutes for mini ones) until toothpick inserted comes out clean. Let donuts cool before coating with cinnamon sugar mixture.
4. Pour 3/4 cup sugar and 2 tsp cinnamon into large sandwich bag and mix together until thoroughly mixed. Put donuts in and zip closed and roll donut around until covered in cinnamon sugar. Remove donut. Repeat with remaining donuts.
Recipe from King Arthur Flour I modified some of the direction steps.

These look so delicious covered in sugar….
That sounds good, and halloween is coming up.
These are fantastic and really reduces the guilt factor of even thinking about eating a donut. Actually, they taste more like a lighter muffin. I added a few things — substituted 1/2 cup brown sugar for the white; used cooked butternut squash puree, added toasted almonds, added 1 tsp vanilla extract, 1/2 tsp maple extract and baked them in 1 old fashioned muffin pan, (look more like enlarged golf balls) and 1 mini bundt cake pan. Each yielded 6 cakes and we brushed with melted butter & rolled in cinnamon sugar. The mini bundt pan required a bit more baking time — about 7 minutes. — but the toothpick test did the trick. My daughter thought the cinnamon sugar wasn't necessary (surprising or a 13 year old), but I loved everything about this recipe. A keeper!
What is the last ingredient that says 1 3/4 cups and 2tbs?
I tried these out last week and they are AMAZING! I don't think I waited long enough to coat my doughnuts in sugar because the next day the sugar all dissolved! luckily they were moist enough to recoat

Waterloo boy from Ethiopia won't let amputation slow him down
WATERLOO, Iowa --- At just 13 years of age Temesgen Larson has overcome more than any child ever should.
The boy, born in Ethiopia, struggled daily for survival. When his mother fell ill, the child --- then only 5 or 6 --- took to begging on the streets of his city to gather enough food and money to support his family. Two years ago Teme, as he's now known, was rescued by Diane and Scott Larson, a Waterloo couple with two biological children and a previously adopted Ethiopian daughter, Sabrina.
The Larsons knew their journey would not be easy. Sabrina came to them as a toddler with little in the way of verbal skills. She learned English without a problem

Wish him all the best.
WOW!!I live about 30 minutes away from Waterloo Iowa i am the only Ethiopian closed to my Ethiopian Boy. Should i go visit them?
According to the article, it seems like you are not the only Ethiopian in the area. You should meet him if you get a chance to do so.

The 1UP Community's Most Anticipated Wii U Games
We run down the games you want the most.
By: 1UP Staff July 18, 2011
Last week we gave you our idea of what games on the Wii U might look like. Not wanting hog all the fun for ourselves, we decided to take the issue to you, the 1UP community, and see what you want to see from Nintendo's next console.
You Guys Sure Love F-Zero
This was easily the most requested game from the community. Given that the Wii never got its own version, a Wii U F-Zero game seems like a given. Of course, with Nintendo it's best not to take anything for granted.
I'm hoping for a brand new 1080p F-Zero game that really pushes the tech.
If there is no new F-Zero on Wii U, then Nintendo will be dead to me (in spirit)...
I'm Surprised they haven't made F-Zero yet. Many of us have Wipeout on PS3, but it's not the same.
The 3D Era
Meanwhile, nemo83 is already plotting the future of the FPS.
Online deathmatch FPS using the Zapper with the Wii U tablet acting as a mounted display: The Wii U tablet would act as the only screen using the gyros in the tablet and the Wii remote to calculate 1:1 camera controls on the screen and allowing the player to turn 360 degree without their field of vision being interrupted as with traditional head mounted displays. The camera on the Wii U would also track the player's head so that if they moved the Zapper out of sync with their head; the screen would maintain an illusion of 3D.
Due to limited development time between now and launch; this suppositional FPS would be multiplayer only.
Oh Snap!
A few users, like evanbananas seconded our request for a Pokémon Snap sequel.
I would absolutely love to see a revival of Pokémon Snap on the Wii U. The game can function off of the virtual reality systems that most companies are attempting to make a part of their new systems. The Wii U tablet can be used as a camera, allowing the player to see a regular view via the TV and when aiming the tablet, see a zoomed in view for taking pictures. Pictures can be taken with the push of a button, preferably the R or L trigger. It's a simple basis for a simple game and I think it'd be a hit on the Wii U.

Getting A Console At Launch Is A Sucker's BetPosted: Jul 26, 2011 12:00AM PST by king_mob
It's kind of hard to get excited for Wii U games when Nintendo hasn't announced any. Sure the Zelda demo was cool but that's all it was, a demo. It reminds me of the Final Fantasy demo for the Ultra 64. And look what happened with Final Fantasy 7...
Metroid? Mario? We haven't seen anything about the Nintendo franchises that have kept me coming back with every system the Big N have released. I'm going to wait until its been out at least a year before I decide to buy it or not. I did the same with the 360 and it ended up becoming one of my favorite consoles of all time (along with the PS2 and Super NES).
Nintendo really screwed its hardcore fans by refusing to release its Japanese RPG titles. It would be one thing if they had a lot of great titles out but there hasn't been a good hardcore game since Super Mario Galaxy 2 and Metroid: OM. All we've seen is wave after wave of mini-games. Nintendo has abandoned us. It's only fair we return the favor.
In my view, anyone who gets a console at launch just to be the first to have it, is kind of a chump. Sure, we all take pleasure from different things. When I bought my XBOX, I got to take Jade Empire and Star Wars: KOTOR home as my launch games. When I got my Gamecube, I got the Resident Evil remake and Eternal Darkness as launch titles (best R rated Nintendo game ever). When I got my XBOX 360, my launch titles were Gears of War and Oblivion.
But when I got my PS2 at launch, it sat collecting dust for ten months until Devil May Cry and Metal Gear Solid 2 came out. The Wii had a Zelda game at launch only because the Gamecube version of TP was delayed. Let's face it, buying a console at launch is getting to be more and more of a sucker's bet.
What happened to the good ol' days when the Genesis came with Altered Beast and and had Ghouls 'n' Ghosts at launch. Remember how the Super NES launched with Super Mario World and Super Ghouls 'n' Ghosts? I miss the days when manufacturers knew how to launch a system. Now it's just about creating fake shortages to manipulate egotistical consumers into feeling special for getting one. It's like trying to buy a cabbage patch kid in the 80's.
woot wootPosted: Jul 24, 2011 12:00AM PST by LLPadre
I for one, is really looking forward to the wii U. Most of the internet sites are having a really hard time getting over the name. Which is just plain stupid, Wii U is a fine name. Just as good as playstation, I hope that this time round the third party devs dont just bombard it with party games and we shall be fine. Aliens: colonial marines.....come on :D
Wii U makes me sadPosted: Jul 19, 2011 12:00AM PST by Slowblues
This article just makes the Wii U seem more like a child toy than anything. The whole conversation about it just reaching out to casual gamers and giving them whatever crap can be thought of is what I'm feeling here.
Pokémon Snap with the Wii U Controller, seems like a good idea, but then why have two screens like that.
You have a huge screen and then this really small one in your hand, I don't like the idea of having to switch like this.
And using a Wii Zapper with the Wii U controller on it, Wii Zapper was meant for an acrade feel wasn't it? Then why this screen there, and if so, why have a TV screen with it?
I can see what this article is trying to get out. But personally I don't the idea of Nintendo doing this, I feel as if I have to stick to my PC to really experience true games now.
F-ZeroPosted: Jul 18, 2011 12:00AM PST by octoberfleshed
I would like to see new entries in the F-Zero and Star Fox franchises (maybe a couple new IPs too?). The new IPs can involve any one of the following, underwater submarines that actually destroy ships (not in the style of that sub game for 3DS), perhaps we can get some games based in a desert setting, instead of involving old relics; maybe they can take place when the pyramids were built (it doesn't have to be Egyptian) possibly killer kittens, players could control a satanic rabbit, these are just a few poorly developed ideas, but if anyone can make them interesting, someone from Nintendo likely can...
Trouble with F-Zero FranchisePosted: Jul 18, 2011 12:00AM PST by shady78
Before you start judging me, I want you to know that I know F-Zero very personally, and that I even got the F-Zero game that they put out on Gamecube (I also have Waverace, but that is a separate) discussion. And yes, I thought it was pretty cool what they were beginning to do with F-Zero on that console -- they were starting to let players customize their ships, edit personalities, and much more.
That all this amazing infrastructure was there, and then to find out Gamecube is not an online device, was a huge blow.
Never mind that the original game forces you to be Samurai Goroh -- now you get to make up your own clown and then have it be meaningless.
So yes, F-Zero has at least one or two things to learn from Wipeout HD on PS3. I'm hoping they'll learn them.
huh?Posted: Jul 18, 2011 12:00AM PST by forestdonkey
what do you mean the original game forced you to be samurai goro? you could choose from 4 vehicles, only one of them was goro. thats like saying streetfighter 2 forces you to be chunli right? anyways, I like wipeout on the ps3, but it is too floaty and i hate how weapons can overpower flying skill.
the gamecube fzero was awesome! though after losing my memory card, i dunno if i can manage to beat everything to unlock the arcade levels again. so hard!
WarioWare D.I.Y.Posted: Jul 18, 2011 12:00AM PST by helpfulmole
I really think that a sequel to the DS game would be a great fit for the Wii U. It seems almost too logical: share games, music, cartoons in HD.... and the controller for fine tuning and quick editing. That would be gnarly.
Something newPosted: Jul 18, 2011 12:00AM PST by MrArmageddon
We know they're working on new Mario/Zelda/Metroid, etc. I wanna see a new IP. One for hardcore gamers.
What's the point of anticipating....Posted: Jul 18, 2011 12:00AM PST by beepboopbop
You already know what's coming: Mario, Zelda, Metroid, Pokemon, and some kind of WiiU sport game. After that it will be an endless stream of games based on the characters of the aforementioned games. Mario: Golf, Tennis, Kart, etc. etc.
So, really, what's the point of anticipating something that you've already played but with better graphics?
The only thing that will be different this time around is 3rd party and a gigantic controller with a screen. Yippee.
WellPosted: Jul 18, 2011 12:00AM PST by Thusian
Actually they have invested in other franchises, but the uptake has been such that we push them back to the franchises you mention.
Batalion Wars, Pickmin, Chibi-Robo, Geist were all new IPs published or developed by Nintendo. While some did better than others none really set the world on fire. Also who says a great Wii U game needs to come from Nintendo?
I wantPosted: Jul 18, 2011 12:00AM PST by ChampsDude
A real console Pokemon game. I am sure they could make an epic Pokemon game with all of the technology presented with the WiiU. Sure, Pokemon is great on handhelds, but i want a full fledged Pokemon for the console with a huge in game online community. Imagine playing the story and running into other people to trade, battle, or just hang out and help each other complete quests. I want this.
AndPosted: Jul 18, 2011 12:00AM PST by sepewrath
thats why it wont happen, Pokemon is way too important to them on the handheld scene, to make a bigger, better, far more appealing console version. But with the hardware on the 3DS, if they wanted, they could do that on there, fully animate 3D world is easily possible on the 3DS.
Am I...Posted: Jul 18, 2011 12:00AM PST by turkish101
missing something here? Article seems kinda... short.
YeahPosted: Jul 18, 2011 12:00AM PST by sepewrath
I thought this would be a little more meaty than this. I'm excited to see what they do with the spatial capabilities, particularly ones where you are allowed to move away from the TV. Though a lot of that, would depend on the controllers range.
Something, something, GTAPosted: Jul 18, 2011 12:00AM PST by Sorbo
I just picked by GTA: Chinatown Wars on DS, and Wow! what a difference a touch screen makes. If Rockstar can do a GTA game on WiiU that comes close to what theyd did on GTA:CW, we might have something very special here.
Oh Snap!!!Posted: Jul 18, 2011 12:00AM PST by Neoblaze
Pokemon snap would make a really good title for the Wii U. I know there are alot of games people would like to see on the Wii U but i wonder how Pokemon Snap will work. Will the pokemon be scattered around in the real world and you have to find them using the Wii U remote or will you use the Wii U remote/controller to aim at the pokemon on the TV screen.
Either way sounds like a good idea =)
FUCK YESPosted: Jul 18, 2011 12:00AM PST by ngamer-90
F-Zero would be awesome at 1080p would be so awesome, F-Zero has been one of the only few games that I call challenging and feels like it takes my gaming skills to the test, I broke 3 controllers on GX cause the Master Mode got challenging, beat the game in Master Mode with all the characters 2 times. So fuck yes to an F-Zero game and they should add online play to it. Ditto on Pokemon Snap, although one on the 3DS would be good too.
A couple morePosted: Jul 18, 2011 12:00AM PST by ngamer-90
After seeing WW in HD and how glorious it looks, I'd love a cel-shaded HD Zelda game, it would looks really sweet, that is a good look for Zelda imo. Starfox in HD, but a new one, a linear one like SF64 and it could be made by either Retro or Treasure. Anew Mario game, but how about one with 2d sprites? It would look like a cartoon, or maybe a cel-shaded Mario game? A New Metroid, maybe a 2d one, would be sweet.
No, absolutely notPosted: Jul 18, 2011 12:00AM PST by Frankula
We finally get HD and you want all of the franchise to NOT be glorious HD graphics? We finally get HD and you want a cel-shaded Zelda? We finally get HD and you want a mario game with 2D sprites? We finally get HD and you want a 2D metroid game?
GTFO. All of these things can (and i wouldn't mind) be done on the 3DS, so why waste our Wii U titles with this crap? I would love a 2D metroid on the 3DS like Super Metroid, but i want a FPS like the prime series for the Wii U!

Spring has sprung. Weather here has been beautiful. Yesterday we took advantage of the warm tempretures.
We had lunch by the river.
After tummies were full, the kids started to explore. The biggest mission,to see if the river was still cold. After putting their feet in the water and finding that the water was indeed cold, they kept exploring.
They found a place beside the river that had still, shallow water. The water there was warm. Shoes came off, pants rolled and in they went. A few mintues later they heard a sound. Looking and looking for the source of the sound, they found that the shallow water was home to frogs. Of course these are boys we are taking about. Chasing and trying to catch the frogs soon followed. I was kind of surprised to know that they didn't like touching them. I thought all boys liked holding frogs. They did manage to catch them after finding a cup. When the chasing was over, we sat on the bank of the river and observed.
We took note of their color. Some were brighter than the others, why?
We watched and listened when the croaked.
We watched the play "leap frog".
We watched them swim ,and just float in the water.
After we got home, we went online to identify the frogs. We then read why some were brighter than others. Why their chins get bigger when they croak. How they croak. Why they croak.
I would say that we had a great impromtu school day, down by the river. These are the days that make me sigh with that happy sigh. We had school, and it was fun! Now, to get Math and Language Arts to be that fun!

It's pretty clear that your /boot partition isn't mounting. Since it
appears that grub is also having a hard time reading it, there may be
a problem. Have you tried running fsck on the /dev/sda8 partition?

John Dudley: Hackenberg everything PSU could have hoped for
To sum up Christian Hackenberg's first college drive: 3-for-3 for 29 yards, including a fourth-down conversion, and a 42-yard punt.
All that was missing was a tackle and a touchdown pass.
Hey, maybe the kid from Charlottesville, Va., really can singlehandedly save Penn State football.
Even before Saturday's season-opener at Metlife Stadium against Syracuse, Hackenberg was easy to admire.
A five-star recruit, Hackenberg told Penn State coach Bill O'Brien he was coming, then stuck to his word after the NCAA stuck it to the Nittany Lions with an avalanche of sanctions in the wake of the Jerry Sandusky scandal.
That would mean no postseason for three years for him. No bowl games, or the national television exposure that comes with them. No guarantee Penn State would be equipped to compete for a Big Ten title, much less a national championship, while he was there.
It said something about Hackenberg that he never blinked.
And on Saturday, it took only one eight-play series covering 32 yards and ending with Hackenberg quick-kicking into the Orange end zone on fourth down to see he's ready to play now. No break-in required.
Hackenberg completed his first six passes, gave way to juco transfer Tyler Ferguson for a series, threw an interception and rebounded to lead the Nittany Lions to field goals on the next two drives.
It wasn't Alabama cramming five first-half touchdowns down someone's throat or Oregon passing up a bright yellow blur, but it felt solid. Hackenberg was clearly in command.
He played the first half with top receiver Allen Robinson on the sideline for reasons O'Brien wouldn't disclose. When Robinson came out for the third quarter, Hackenberg found him for a 51-yard catch and run that became the freshman's first college touchdown and gave Penn State a 13-3 lead.
"He threw an interception, but I think he's done a nice job," O'Brien said of his quarterback at halftime. "He's an 18-year kid who was at his prom about four months ago."
"Nice" was the right bow to tie on Hackenberg's debut, in keeping with O'Brien's low-key style.
At that moment, it was possible to see what the coach saw in the player, and the player in the coach, to understand why Hackenberg didn't jump off Penn State's ship when no one would have blamed him for doing so.
"It comes down to how you're wired, how you're raised," Erick Hackenberg said of his son's decision. "How we've chosen to raise our kids."
This morning, Penn State fans should say a quiet thank you to the Hackenbergs -- all of them -- for their good work.

WWE going public, launching SmackDown, purchasing WCW and ECW, purchasing video libraries, launching WWE Studios and moving to HD was also covered. The brand extension was also covered, and Cena credited the brand extension for getting called up. It's interesting to see how hot SmackDown was back in the day, and where it could be if they didn't spend years and years treating it as the "B" show, with the aftermath still being felt today.
The ending of the Attitude Era and the John Cena years was covered next. Paul Heyman praised Cena's work ethic, and CM Punk noted that Cena had a good message which resonated. Cena's charity work was profiled, and Cena noted that the company used to be very quiet about their charity work, but decided it would be better to mention it since they could raise more funds for the charities that way. WrestleMania expanding to stadiums and the Hall of Fame was also covered, as was the company opening the Performance Center earlier this year. Cena noted that with Vince having bought all the regional promotions, that there wasn't much of a talent pool to recruit from, which makes the Performance Center essential.
The closing 10-15 minutes seemed more like a promotional video for investors, as it featured talent discussing Vince McMahon being a mastermind and celebrities like Ozzy Osbourne, Kid Rock, Sean "Diddy" Combs and Arnold Schwarzenegger putting the company over.
There are six hours of matches and segments on the DVD, while the Blu-Ray also contains the Floyd Mayweather vs. Big Show match from Wrestlemania 24 and The Undertaker vs. Shawn Michaels bout from Wrestlemania 25. Matches are chosen more on their historical context as opposed to quality. John Cena vs. CM Punk from RAW earlier this year is the best match on the DVD set, but you do get matches that are milestones for the company and their biggest stars. You have the first Monday Night RAW match ever pitting Yokozuna vs. Koko B. Ware, the first ever televised Royal Rumble match, the entire Montreal screwjob, Steve Austin vs. Jake Roberts at King of the Ring (where Austin 3:16 was born), Bruno Sammartino losing the title to Superstar Billy Graham, Hulk Hogan vs. Andre The Giant, The Rock vs. Hulk Hogan at WrestleMania 18 and more. The segments on the DVD include CM Punk's pipebomb, Vince McMahon announcing the purchase of WCW, the Mike Tyson and Steve Austin altercation on RAW and more. The Hogan - Andre match is hurt because the commentary with Jesse Ventura and Gorilla Monsoon has been removed completely, while Ventura's commentary for the Royal Rumble match was edited out with only Vince McMahon's remaining. This is due to Ventura successfully suing the company over royalties for his commentary on video releases, however in the past the company had replaced the commentary track with current talent.
Overall, the DVD is definitely worth a look, and is recommended for WWE fans to add to their collections. I give the DVD set a 3.5 / 5. Once again, you can purchase the two disc Blu-Ray set at Amazon.com for $27.99 by clicking here, or the three disc DVD collection for $22.99 at Amazon at this link.

OK, it's just two games, but Jason Giambi and Shelley Duncan have looked good. Giambi really does look like he's in good shape.
So maybe the Yanks end up platooning at first base. They could play Giambi at first with Hideki Matsui the DH against right-handers, and against lefties Duncan could play first at Giambi could DH.
There's a long way to go, but it seems Morgan Ensberg will have to really impress to earn part of the job.

Several months ago, the Citizen Patriot stopped reviewing plays, including by Center Stage Jackson, the Michigan Shakespeare Festival and the Purple Rose Theatre.
Earlier this week, questions were posed on Center Stage Jackson's Facebook page asking if the reviews are being missed, and what value do they hold?
Here are a few responses:
- Dave Mullholand: "The reviews promote the show usually without being too judgmental. May persuade some people to attend if the review is glowing."
- David Blixt: "One of the maddening justifications I've heard was: 'Who cares what happened in a play last night?' If a play is running two, four, six weeks, perhaps the readers of the Cit-Pat would like to know if it's worth their time to attend. Are we stopping movie reviews? Who cares what happened in the movie theatre last night? Or are we cutting sports coverage? Cause, unlike a play, once a game is over, it's over. There's no chance to see it again. If it's a question of paying a freelancer $50 to go review a play - which is a local event, sponsored by the local community and a part of the local economy - how is that not relevant to the lives of the Cit-Pat's readers?"
- Timm Richardson: "Well said, Mr. Blixt. The sad part is that usually the only ones to read the reviews are those involved with the show. The movie reviews are not done locally and I am a sports fan, but by the time that hits I've already seen coverage on the evening news and don't bother with the paper. I must say that Zeke's local coverage has been good in terms of before the event promotions and highlighting local artists. What about the 'end of the year' edition which names local dream teams and local news highlights, but only once (thank you, Mary Barber) was there anything on top entertainment stories. Would an onslaught of VOP letters do any good? They actually get read. The In Town has been a blessing, but it's not enough. If we are to be an 'Arts Community', then let's take a look at both of those words. Even to the religious community, let it be said that artistry is the Lord's favorite way to be praised. Amen."
- Betsy Steinert: "SO GLAD THIS IS BEING ADDRESSED! I was astounded when I found out that they just don't do reviews anymore. I just really want to understand why they would have stopped in the first place and what it will take to get them going again. We need a dialogue with the Cit Pat and I think VOP letters are a great place to start. We're an arts community trying to thrive. We all know that the arts get hit hard in times of economic struggle, but the joy we get from creating and witnessing art can be JUST what a struggling community needs."
- Leslie Mae Wireman: "Lots of value. That is too bad. Gives the community a peak at things, highlights performers, good publicity for the shows and the communities, attracts visitors, attracts business, improves economy... i could keep going. Jackson needs to show its attractions and attract people. These need to happen."
Where do you weigh in on this issue? Did you read the reviews and have you missed them? If so, did you find them helpful? Did they influence whether or not you attended a performance?

The accountancy profession was thrown into turmoil yesterday after a High Court judge appeared to rule that practitioners had a duty to advise wealthy clients to avoid tax.
Hossein Mehjoo, an Iranian refugee who built up a multimillion-pound fashion business in Britain, successfully sued his local accountancy firm for £1.4 million after it failed to advise him to enter an offshore tax avoidance scheme.
Mr Mehjoo, who won asylum in the 1980s after claiming that he would "get a bullet in the head" if sent back to Iran, had already tried to avoid a £850,000 tax bill on the sale

Maple tech support sent me a third party application for my Maple 2016 to solve a problem that I'm working on. I was instructed to copy and paste a few items from the download: "to your "<maple>/lib" folder" Unfortunately I cannot access "lib" in my Maple "Applications" folder on my OS X MacBook Pro.
This is what Maple Tech Support sent me:
"Another option you may want to look into is the "DirectSearch" package (which is third-party, and not supported by us), which would need to be downloaded from the Maplesoft Application Centre:
There is a function "GlobalOptima()", which allows one to search for a global minimum to the objective function, as opposed to a local minimum like commands such as "LSSolve()". To install, you can extract the files "DirectSearch.mla", "DirectSearch.help", and "DirectSearch.hdb" to your "<maple>/lib" folder."
Any suggestions?
We find recent applications of the components applied to the linear momentum, circular equations applied to engineering. Just simply replace the vector or scalar fields to thereby reasoning and use the right button.
(in spanish)
Currently calculations: equations, regression analysis, differential equations, etc; to mention a few of them; are developed using traditional methods ie even are proposed and solved by hand and on paper. In teaching our scientists and engineers use the chalkboard as a way to reach students and enable them to solve their calculation. To what extent Maple contributes to research on new mathematical models applied science and engineering ?. Maplesoft appears as a proposal to resolve problems with our traditional proposed intelligent algorithms, development process, embedded components, and not only them but also generates type applications for Apple ipad tablets signature. Based on the computer algebra system Maple Maplesoft gives us the package which works exactly like we were on our work. I will show how mathematics is developed from a purely basic to reach modeling differential equations applied to education and engineering. Also visualizare current techniques for developing applications for mobile devices.

Today science professionals in engineering software used to only work on the desktop and even just looking to download and use mobile apps math; but they are not able to design their own applications.Maplesoft to set the solution to it through its Maple package; software supports desktop and mobile; solves problems of analysis and calculation with Embedded Components. To show this we have taken the area of different mathematical topics; fixed horizontally to a certain range of parameters and not just a constant as it is customary to develop. This paper shows how the Embedded Components allow us to develop mathematics in all areas. Achieving build applications that are interactive in mobile devices such as tablets; which are used at any time. Maple gives us design according to our university or research need, based on contemporary and modern mathematics.With this method we encourage students, teachers and researchers to use graphics algorithms.
I would like to pay attention to a series of applications by Samir Khanhttp://www.maplesoft.com/applications/view.aspx?SID=153600http://www.maplesoft.com/applications/view.aspx?SID=153599http://www.maplesoft.com/applications/view.aspx?SID=153596http://www.maplesoft.com/applications/view.aspx?SID=153598My congratulations to the author on his work well done. New capacities of Global Optimization Toolbox are spectacular. For example, in the first application an optimization problem in 101 variables under 5050 nonlinear constraints(other than 202 bounds) is solved. I think it requires a very powerful comp and much time.I tried that problem for n=20 with the good old DirectSearch on my comp (4 GB RAM, Pentium Dual-Core CPU E5700@3GHz) bysoln2 := DirectSearch:-GlobalSearch(rc, {cons1, cons2, rc >= 0, seq(`and`(vars[i] >= -70, vars[i] <= 70), i = 1 .. 2*n), rc <= 70}, variables = vars, method = quadratic, number = 140, solutions = 1, evaluationlimit = 20000)and obtained not so bad rc=69.9609360106765 (whereas www.packomania.com gives rc=58.4005674790451137175957) in about one hour.
Packing_by_DS.mwFor n=50 the memory of my comp cannot allocate calculations or the obtained result by the Search command is far away from the one in packomania.
In Maple 18, the Database package has been updated to include support for SQlite databases as well as a new option for plots to change the background images on plots. To showcase both of these features, our engineering team put together an example that optimizes the flight path of a pan-US delivery drone.
This application extracts the latitude and longitude of those zip codes from an SQLlite database (the application includes the database, which cross-references US zip codes against their latitude, longitude, city and state). The application then performs a traveling salesman optimization and plots the shortest path on a map of the US.
To download the application click here: PanUSDeliveryDro.zip
I installed the shared library from http://www.maplesoft.com/applications/view.aspx?SID=1691
and it seems to have loaded ok. Now I can do
with(share);See ?share and ?share,contents for information about the share library []
When browsing help, I noticed it has a function called IntSolve() for solving linear integral equations. Maple itself has function called intsolve() which is build-in.
Since Maple is case sensitive, I assumed when I type IntSolve() then it will find the shared version of IntSolve() automatically and not call Maple's own intsolve. And that is indeed what happed. I typed an example from the help on share as you can see
eq1 := p(x)-1/2*Int(x*y*p(y),y=0....1)=5/6*x;IntSolve(eq1,p(x)); 7775 ---- x 7776 intsolve(eq1,p(x)); p(x) = xOk, So one of them is a little wrong :). But suppose I want to explicitly add the share library there, in the call, as prefix, so that when I look at the code later, I can see which function I am calling. How should one do this? I tried
share:-IntSolve(eq1,p(x)); Error, `share` does not evaluate to a moduleshare[IntSolve](eq1,p(x));
The strange thing, is that this worked
Basically, all what I want is to way to add the share name to all the calls somewhere, so I know, when looking at the code, which call is from which library or package.
Any idea how to do this? So to avoid any possible name clash since the share library seems large.
I am using Maple 17.02

Just a curious question.
Why when some new applications are added to the application center they do not always get inserted at the top of the list?
One of the challenges in Linear Algebra is in developing problems, projects, and exercises that are both larger dimensional and student-accessible. Indeed, round-off error, computational complexity, difficulty factoring characteristic polynomials of degree 3 or higher, and similar aspects often mean that any problems or applications of rank 3 or higher are approached solely via technology.
However, that same technology can be used to create...

Local, Global, and Plural Constitutionalism: Europe Meets the World
Daniel Halberstam
University of Michigan Law School
THE WORLDS OF EUROPEAN CONSTITUTIONALISM, G. De Búrca and J.H.H. Weiler, Eds., Cambridge University Press, Forthcoming
U of Michigan Public Law Working Paper No. 176
The dilemma of constitutionalism in the age of global governance has elicited two dominant responses - one local and one global. On the one hand, those alarmed by the threat of global institutions of governance have sounded retreat into local constitutionalism as the only source of legitimate public power. On the other hand, a group of enthusiasts privilege the global realm of governance as overcoming the inherent limitations of local constitutionalism.
After setting out these opposing views, this essay charts a middle course by joining constitutionalism and pluralism into an alternative to the purported choice between the local and the global. The essay then turns to the European Union, which figures prominently in this debate as perhaps the most advanced institutional embodiment of taking constitutionalism beyond the state. As the European Union matures, the question arises, which of these three approaches will it embrace in its own dealings with the world beyond its borders: local, global, or plural constitutionalism?

Steve - Why not note that earlier this month, Hagel apologized for the comments about Ambassador Hormel. And that he is on record opposing a constitutional ban on same-sex marriage.

"My comments 14 years ago in 1998 were insensitive," Hagel said in a statement last Friday. "They do not reflect my views or the totality of my public record, and I apologize to Ambassador Hormel and any LGBT Americans who may question my commitment to their civil rights. I am fully supportive of 'open service' and committed to LGBT military families."

After reading Hagel's apology, Hormel said it was "significant" in a post on his Facebook page. "Senator Hagel's apology is significant — I can't remember a time when a potential presidential nominee apologized for anything. While the timing appears self-serving, the words themselves are unequivocal — they are a clear apology.

"Since 1998, fourteen years have passed, and public attitudes have shifted — perhaps Sen. Hagel has progressed with the times, too. His action affords new stature to the LGBT constituency, whose members still are treated as second-class citizens in innumerable ways. Sen. Hagel stated in his remarks that he was willing to support open military service and LGBT military families. If that is a commitment to treat LGBT service members and their families like everybody else, I would support his nomination."

Energy round-up: the truth about green levies
Photo credit: hddod
October 18, 2013 // By: Simone Osborn , Co-editor, Energy Crunch
Three things you shouldn't miss this week
Chart of the week: what actually makes up our household energy bills?
Graphic: Paul Scruton - The Guardian
How to lose half a trillion euros - The existential threat facing Europe's electricity providers.
- Energy Darwinism: Fossil fuels and utilities at risk - A major new report from investment banking giant Citi has highlighted the dramatic changes sweeping the world's energy industry.
Sign up to get our fortnighly energy updates
Scottish & Southern Energy's announcement of an 8.2% hike in household energy bills unleashed a political storm this week. CEO Alistair Phillips-Davies's calls for a review of the government's green energy levies were taken up by the Prime Minster even as his Lib Dem cabinet colleague Vince Cable dismissed the idea as "foolish".
What any review would find is that just 9% of average household energy bills are due to these green levies (see chart above), over half of which are used to invest in measures to keep the poor and elderly warm. The bulk of household energy costs are dictated by the cost of wholesale fuel, and investments in upgrading network infrastructure.
Elsewhere big energy companies are having a tough time – particularly in Europe where the growth of renewables is hollowing out the utilities' business model. In Germany wind and solar have eviscerated the big energy companies' profits and credit ratings, while new analysis from banking giant Citi shows that solar is rapidly displacing fossil fuels in power generation, even in the US, where gas is currently cheap. The financial risks of investing in high-carbon energy, they conclude, are far higher than most realise.
The same path awaits the UK. The British government will at some point be forced to confront such contradictions in energy policy: how to ensure investment in huge amounts of new infrastructure while the utilities' business model falls apart. Politicians hoping that it will be shale gas to the rescue should pay heed to Shell's departing boss Peter Voser, who described talk that the US shale revolution will be repeated elsewhere as just "a big hype at the moment".
Energy round-up: the truth about green levies

Bowe believes the convincing success was a decent response to the coaches' request to raise the bar following the 59-8 victory over the Barbarians on Saturday and the fact that it came with more than a splattering of flair was an added bonus.
"It was good to get over the line. It was nice to get the ball in hand," said Bowe.
"It's something that we've looked at as a team, wanting to move the ball and play a bit of rugby.
"The more ball we get, the merrier - we're greedy players as wingers and we want to get the ball in our hands. The more the play together, the more exciting we're going to be.
"It wasn't the game plan particularly: we wanted to set a platform first of all but if we saw space or thought it was on it was definitely play on. We wanted to gain a foothold and get on the front foot but at stages it was on in our own half and it was up to us to take that chance.
"It was great to score nine tries, especially after the performance the boys put in the other day. The boys put in an awesome performance in Hong Kong in incredibly difficult conditions. For us, the conditions were a lot nicer - they were great conditions to play rugby in."
Bowe was particularly impressed with the performances of full back Leigh Halfpenny and centre Brian O'Driscoll, as the Welshman slotted 11 kicks from 11 attempts and the Irish veteran scored twice as matchday skipper.
But they weren't the only players to enhance their claims for a Test spot, with Bowe delighted with the strength in depth on this his second Lions tour.
"Leigh was unbelievable, what a performance," added Bowe.
"To nail some of those touchline kicks was incredible, so hats off to him.
"To see him split the posts on numerous occasions, what a player. To be kicking ahead of Jonny Sexton, who's a quality place kicker as well, just shows the quality of the man.
"Drico scored a couple as well, which I'm sure he's delighted about. He can still do it, can't he? What an inspiration he is to have in the squad. He's a great captain and he certainly leads from the front.
"Just to look at the two teams (from the first two games), you could pick a Test team from either of them. They were equally as strong.
"The competition is enormous and it's great going forward. The competition is going to be brutal, but that's what we want for the good of the team.
"There's a lot of stuff that we can work on but it's a great start for us. It's now on to the next game and hopefully we can keep it going."

If you want to appear like you're at the cutting edge of net culture but can't be bothered to spend hours online, then never fear. Scotsman.com's pathetic team of geeks, freaks and gimps will do the hard work for you one last time. While you sip wine, read a book or engage in normal social interaction, they have sallied forth, burned out their retinas staring at badly designed web pages and dodged creeps in chatrooms to prepare for you: the final lazy guide to net culture.
Dear "Lazy Guide" reader,
This is goodbye.
After more than three years, 160 columns and 1.3 million page views, I am retiring the Lazy Guide. It's been a lot of fun but, as shown by its long summer then autumn break, there aren't enough hours in the day to continue with slogging through the flotsam and jetsam of online trivia.
This is a pity as the flotsam and jetsam of online trivia kinda sums up the totality of my journalistic expertise. Still, it's been a wild ride. I've greatly enjoyed the close contact its brought me with the users, both good and bad. Often bad. Mostly bad. And worse than bad. And threatening. And sinister. And downright disturbing. But, hey, that's the internet for you.
I started this column in 2003, when it was a whole lot colder out there. The first Lazy Guide - in January 2003 - was about the sport of Googlewhacking.
My favourite Lazy Guide was about the passing of my journalistic hero, the late, great Hunter S Thompson:
The good doctor stood for a different kind of journalism: one that cared less for facts than truth. His writing reproaches the rest of us, who rewrite press releases, follow the party line and only have the courage to offend the powerless - in other words the ones whose lofty ambitions didn't work out too well.
The funniest one I wrote was probably the Lazy Guide that dealt with the online cult of Comical Ali, the artist formerly known as the Iraqi information minister:
God knows there are few laughs to be had in any war. Killing - whether morally justified or not - is not a humorous matter. But one man had the courage to turn downtown Baghdad into Edinburgh Festival Fringe Venue 985 for a few short days: Iraq's own king of comedy, Mohammed Saeed al-Sahaf.
While other members of the regime were busy looking out their false passports, shaving their suddenly-no-longer-fashionable moustaches and generally getting ready to take French leave - sorry, freedom leave - al-Sahaf put on the best military comedy act since It Ain't Half Hot Mum.
However, the most popuar Lazy Guide was about those daft Yeti sports games so popular a couple of years ago. It received more than 28,000 page views, which is extraordinary. Eeh, there's no accounting for taste.
Since I started the Lazy Guide, Google has become worth billions, YouTube is a global phenomenon and Web 2.0 has changed the media.
In the spirit of the latter, I will now give the reader community the tools to build their own Lazy Guides. (In other words, I'll post a list of links full to empty frivolity, much as I used to do…)
So here are five sites that are good places to find entertaining links. For one final time, let me point out that I cannot vouch for the tastefulness of what you find. But then again you are online and are no more from three clicks from sites involving donkeys - and not in a good way:
One final link: here's a truly soothing piece of genius plucked from YouTube. It's called Cloud Hands and I've chosen it for no other reason than it's really cool.
To leave on a positive note, I foresee a wonderful future for the net - and for online journalism in particular. We are living in the midst of a revolution that makes the Industrial one look like a brace of over-rated gadgets. So let's enjoy it.

The communication of corporate environmental
messages has a history of mixed results, and
concerns are mounting around the possibility of
information overload, and the quality and
accurateness of the content. In this research I look
at the complexities associated with environmental
information and communication, and explore the
relationship of information complexity and
credibility as key constructs that influence
communication performance. Recent emphasis on Life
Cycle Assessment (LCA) information is presented as
holding some promise to improve the effectiveness of
environmental claims. Results indicate that although
the likelihood that more complex communications in
an advertising context makes for poor advertising;
the credibility gained through more explicit
environmental disclosures, favorably influences the
perceptions toward the company and the brand.In a
second study with architects, I found that,
advertisements with environmental messages are more
effective than those presenting functional product
benefits alone, but only when the messages are
substantiated with quantitative and disaggregated
information [resulting from LCA studies].

Wall Street Decline Takes Its Toll...
SAFC is spending $10.1 million to expand facilities in Ireland and Switzerland. The company reports plans to increase cGMP commercial-scale API manufacturing capacity at its Arklow, Ireland, plant and to expand production and storage at the Buchs, Switzerland, buildings.
These developments come shortly after SAFC's decision last month to enhance the high-potency intermediates production and solid-form research at its Madison, WI, facility. In April the company also reported the completion of two new protein purification and extraction API facilities at its St. Louis, MO, manufacturing campus.
Scheduled for the first quarter of 2008, the $4.7 million Arklow investment will increase production capacity and capability. The pilot plant will be upgraded and vessels will be added to increase chemistry capacity for API products. SAFC expects to complete other enhancements later this year that will increase utility capacity and the site's environmental performance.
SAFC will provide another $5.4 million for a 17,200 sq. ft. expansion to its existing cGMP production plant at Buchs. Production capacity will go up 25% through improved materials flow and separation and increased materials storage, according to the company. The two-level storage building is expected to become fully operational in spring 2008 and will reportedly provide logistical infrastructure to support future expansion.

I got an e-mail about the demo comming to meeee, in September. If you happen to have an extra PSP lying around, or you have one that you don't one. Please feel free to give it to me. And if you want to be nice about it, you could also buy me one.
I don't play handheld games a lot. So it's not a good investment for me if I buy one. But, like I said, you're welcome to give me one.

I agree with the other poster that said a thyroid test may not reveal everything. You need a full thyroid panel to tell. That said you probably don't have it if: your eyebrows are still full, your thyroid doesn't feel enlarged, you aren't gaining weight, you aren't cold all the time, and you have good mental clarity.
I would still recommend upping your starches a bit. Unless you are seeing actual baldness, I wouldn't waste the time and money on a trip to the dermatologist.

West Memphis 3 Freed
We are thrilled to report that after 18 years, Damien Echols has been released from death row and Jason Baldwin and Jessie Misskelley have been freed from prison. The three men, known as the West Memphis Three, have always maintained their innocence. Read the New York Times breaking story.
We'd like to thank the nearly ten thousand supporters who took action last year on behalf of Damien Echols and the other two men.
Your action made a difference. You helped save three lives--one from execution and two from a lifetime behind bars.
Thank you for standing up for justice and speaking out for the innocent. These victories remind us that we are winning. With your continued activism and financial support, we are confident that the wins will continue.
Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. often repeated the saying, "The arc of the moral universe is long, but it bends toward justice."
Thanks to your actions and your support, we know that we will keep bending that arc and we will end the death penalty in our lifetime.

I always liked her, and I've missed her in the mix. Now that it is official, I wish her all the best.
So sad for her to retire because of injury.
I wish her the best in her new life and career.
I thought she retired a couple of years ago.
She rested for a while due to injuries and then came back in the 2006-7 season. she was competing at national and international events. she had a good standing at nationals in the deep japanese ladies field last season.
What was her injuries ,by the way?
You know, 26th Nov. is her birthday. (It's already yesterday here.)
She chose her 22nd birthday to announce the end of her competitive career.
Though in Japanese, announcement to the skate fans, in her own words:

Yukina Ota will appear on the Medalist on Ice as a special guest along with Lambiel on 12/28 in Tokyo. She also did some ice show in Tokyo this weekend.
Glad to hear that Yukina Ota continues to be invited to participate in shows -- she is a lovely performer!
Such a beautiful skater!!! I will miss her.
Completely agree with you Joe. Another skater where it was a shame the jumps would drive competitive fate. Very musical and uniquely lyrical amongst the Japanese ladies.
I'm so sad to hear of Yukina's retirement. I remember being so impressed with her Picasso's Dance program when I first saw it on YouTube. She's definitely an artist on the ice- very detailed, precise, exquisite. And I definitely agree with Binthere, she was very lyrical amongst the Japanese skaters. She skated with conviction like an actress- which only few skaters can pull off like Sasha & Yu-Na.
though I've known for months that she might retire after the first break, I find myself remain sad when the news really comes true.
I just wonder if she would be a coach after the retirement?
