There is one area, however, where the Eee PC 1025C Flare does amazingly well, and that's battery life. The system ran for 10 hours and 19 minutes in our video playback battery drain test. That's an amazingly long time, and the real advantage of Intel's revamped Atom chips. Of course, it takes twice as long to do anything on this laptop, so keep that in mind as well.
Asus includes an industry-standard, one-year parts-and-labor warranty with the system. Asus also offers a collection of online support tools, including driver downloads, online FAQs, and a 24-7 toll-free phone line, although the support section layout and implementation are not as clear as for some other PC brands.
Asus almost single-handedly created the Netbook craze, which brought affordable computing to many, and the company deserves much credit for that. This is clearly a category with its best days long behind it, however, and it's hard to imagine exactly who the Eee PC 1025C Flare would be for outside of developing markets.

Lt. Gov. Rebecca Kleefisch: Give surplus back to taxpayers
While Sunday's Journal Sentinel editorial echoed talking points from our political opponents' campaign operatives, I invite the Editorial Board to actually review the facts about the positive policies enacted under Gov. Scott Walker's leadership.
Four years ago, the state's unemployment rate was 9.2%. In fact, Wisconsin lost more than 133,000 jobs and lost 27,000 businesses during Democratic Gov. Jim Doyle's final term in office. After Gov. Walker and I were sworn in, we took aggressive action to get Wisconsin working again. Now, the unemployment rate is the lowest it has been in more than five years at 6.2%. And some 100,000 jobs and nearly 13,000 new businesses have been created since we took office. Private-sector job creation between April and December is the best since 1994.
We also took necessary steps to get our fiscal house in order over the past few years. We inherited a $3.6 billion budget deficit when we took office and turned it into a $759 million surplus by the end of the 2011-'13 budget.
Now, Wisconsin has $911.9 million more than previously expected. A strong economy and wise fiscal management are the major drivers of this surplus. We propose putting $100 million into the rainy day fund and the rest back into the hands of the hardworking taxpayers who earned it in the first place.
Sunday's editorial suggested putting more money into the rainy day fund. Our plan calls for a rainy day fund seven times larger than it ever was before we took office.
Then the editorial complained about the budget's structure. It's tough to imagine a scenario by which the current budget wouldn't end with a big surplus. Even if revenue grew at the 10-year average (a figure that includes the bad years of the recession), it would produce an additional $700 million above any perceived structural imbalance for the next budget.
The editorial went on to talk about money for public education. Our last budget put $387 million more into Wisconsin's public schools. The governor's blueprint calls for additional investments in partnerships between public schools and technical colleges. A recent report from the Wisconsin Taxpayers Alliance shows that Wisconsin's schools were able to use our reforms to cover their budget adjustments. Moreover, our state's ACT scores are staying above the national average, and graduation rates are up since we took office, as are third-grade reading scores.
The editorial laments transportation infrastructure. Our budget added more than $800 million to the transportation fund, compared to the more than $1 billion raid by our predecessor.
The editorial references poverty in Milwaukee. Our plan puts all of the income tax relief in the lowest tax bracket (couples making up to $14,330), intentionally targeting the lowest wage earners but giving some relief to middle-class taxpayers, too. Our Transform Milwaukee initiative is putting $100 million into some of the poorest areas of the state. We funded transitional jobs to help people living in poverty find work with $100 million in employment training to get folks the skills needed to find a job. And — for the first time in Wisconsin history — everyone living in poverty will be covered under Medicaid this year.
There will be enough time for political campaigns later this year. How about right now we review the facts objectively and cheer when Wisconsin is honestly doing better and pull in the same direction when we see ways to improve? The governor's plan provides opportunity to do both.
Rebecca Kleefisch is lieutenant governor of Wisconsin.

NUS national education walkout
Wednesday 14 March 2012
The National Union of Students has called a national campus walkout on 14th March to fight government 'reforms' to higher education. The NUS will be encouraging students to boycott seminars and lectures on this day and protest on campus against hidden course fees and the privatisation of higher education.
Socialist Students has pointed out that this is an historic step; never before in its 90 year history has the NUS called a national walkout.
It is now the job of every university and college activist to make sure that the action is a big, militant show of anger.

I didn't play Far Cry 3 because I was too busy being disappointed with Assassin's Creed III, and I probably got distracted by several other shiny new things at the time as well. Several people recommended I play it, and now after getting my hands on Far Cry 4, I will gladly pick up Far Cry 3 in eager anticipation for this upcoming installation in the series. All I can say is, you get to ride an elephant and attack enemies and fortresses with an elephant. That's all you really need to know to get excited about it.
Here. Leeloo Dallas. Multi-pass.
This area looks too nice. Let's just put down our guns and relax.
Far Cry 4 is set in the Himalayas, so the open world is far more vertical than Far Cry 3 was, as you now have mountains to climb and explore. To assist you with your mountainous travels, players will have access to a grapple hook and a wing suit to help you survive when you careen over the cliffs. The world map is also dynamic, constantly changing as time passes. For instance, there are patrolling convoys that circle the area at different times. You may see a convoy in one area, while your friend won't come across the same convoy until they reach a different spot.
And speaking of friends, you can play the main campaign along with a friend. At any time, a co-op partner can drop in and out to team up and help you take over fortresses, defeat waves of enemies, and complete mission objectives. The hands-on demo I played was the same mission Ubisoft showed at the Sony press conference. You could choose to fly your way in with the gyrocopter, sneak in and use stealth kills, or barrage you way through with an elephant. Of course I chose the elephant, and I have never had so much fun storming a castle before.
My little elephant friend trampled enemies, tossed any who got too close, and bowled over vehicles. While perched on top, I was well armed with an AK-47, ready to take out snipers and any souls who dared to shoot my pachyderm pal. It was very challenging, and I died numerous times, but I never stopped having a blast trying new ways to take over the fortress atop an elephant. I felt like Hannibal, if Hannibal had an automatic rifle.
Far Cry 4 is set to also release on November 18, 2014, and this is one new-generation console owners should be ecstatic to get their hands on.

I am hereby, a fan. Great music.
Minnesota? Me too. I keep my 3 in an indoor Aviary 3D x 4H x 6L. I try to let them out everyday. They love to stay in my home office, on my keyboard, desk, shoulder, my hand, etc... always near me or on me. They are about 8 yr now. I also have Pigeons and Chickens. One Pigeon, Simon, 13 yrs old Modena (retired), now gets to permanently live in the house loose in the Family Room. He is a important member of our family, my constant companion, even goes camping with us. The Pigeons and Chickens have an outdoor solar heated Aviary, free to roam the yard.

One look that clients ask me to create all the time is what I refer to as the wash look, and what I mean by that is that the entire clip looks like it's been washed in a particular color. Another way of saying that is it looks like the entire clip has been tinted. An example of this is the popular sepia look, and while we have the Sepia and Tint effects, which can be found in the Basics category of the Effects Browser here in Final Cut Pro X, in this movie, I wanted to show you how you could create your own custom wash look using the Color Board. Now, we are not going to be as heavy- handed as creating, say, a sepia look, but what I am going to do is create a nice warm subtle wash in a couple of clips in this project.
All right, let's take a look at this first shot. It looks okay, but what I want to do is create a nice warm wash on it. To do that, I am going to access the Color Board. So with the clip selected, I'll use the keyboard shortcut Command+6 to open up the Color Board. It's always a good idea to make exposure or contrast corrections prior to making color corrections. So to access the Exposure pane, I will use the keyboard shortcut Ctrl+Command+E, and then so I can actually see what I'm doing as I am making Exposure Correction, I am going to go ahead and open up the scopes. I will do that by using the keyboard shortcut Command+7. Then here in the Scopes window, let me click into the Settings menu and choose to display the Waveform Scope.
I will click back in the Settings menu and make sure that I have the Luma option selected, which I do. Of course, right now I am not actually seeing any trace or information about the shot, so what I need to do is come down to the timeline and select the shot itself. Now, I can see some trace. All I am going to do right now on this shot is expand its contrast a little bit by making a simple Exposure Correction. Let's come back over to the Exposure pane on the Color Board here for the shot, and first, I am going to use the Blacks or Shadows control, this guy right here, and drag down just a touch, so that the bottom of the trace is just touching 0% like that.
Then, what I am going to do is come into the Highlights or Whites Exposure Control, this guy right here, and drag up just a touch. Something like that. Okay, let's switch over to the Color Pane here on the Color Board, and I will do that simply by clicking on the Color Pane right here. Then let's come into the Waveform scope here and change the Waveform scope by clicking in the Settings menu to view the Vectorscope. Let me select the shot down here in the timeline, so I can see trace up here in the Vectorscope. You will notice most of the trace is pointed out here towards the cyan and blue targets. What I want to do is create a nice warm wash in the shot.
Remember, warm refers to tones that are sort of yellow and red. So we can see the shot a little bit bigger, let's go ahead and hide the scope for right now. I will press Command+7 to hide the vectorscope, and Command+7 again to clear the scopes. Over here on the Color Pane of the Color Board, you will notice that I actually have four controls-- a Master or Global control, and then three controls for the various parts of the tonal range: Shadows, Midtones, and Highlights. For this shot, I am going to use the Global or Master control. This guy right here. What I am going to do is drag over into the yellow red area, something like this.
Now remember, you don't actually need to drag. You can use the left and right- arrow keys to make the correction. So for example, let me go up here to dial in the shot, something like that is looking pretty good. Yeah! I am liking that look. I have a nice warm wash on the shot now. Let me open the Vectorscope once again. Click into the Settings menu here and choose Vectorscope. Let me come down to the timeline and select the shot. Now you will notice most of the trace is pointed over here towards the yellow red targets indicating that we have a nice warm wash in the shot.
Let's come down to the second shot in this timeline, and this is just a wide shot of the first shot in this timeline. Now, I want to create a similar wash on this shot, and just like we did with the first shot, we will first make an exposure correction and then we will come into the Color Pane of the Color Board. But, this time we will use the three controls for the different parts of the tonal range to actually make the Color Correction. So let me go ahead and select the shot. Up here in the Scopes window, let me click on Settings and choose to display the Waveform scope. Then I will come back down and make sure that the Luma option is selected, which it is.
Let's come down in the Timeline and select this shot. Then, over here in the Color Board for this shot, let's click on the Exposure pane. And just like we did with the first shot, I am going to make a simple contrast or Exposure correction. Let's come into the Shadows or Blacks Exposure Control, this guy right here, and drag down just a touch. Something like that works. My highlights are actually okay in the shot, so I am going to use the Midtones Exposure Control and drag up to lighten up the midtones. All right! That's working pretty well. Next, let's come back into the Scopes window and change our View from the Waveform to the Vectorscope.
Once again on this shot, you will notice that most of the trace is pointed out towards the Cyan and Blue targets. And just like we did on the first shot, we are going to create a nice warm wash. So we can see what we are doing a little easier, let's go ahead and hide the Vectorscope by pressing Command+7 and Command+7 again to hide the scopes completely. Then, over here on the Color Board, let's click on the Color Pane. On the first shot, we used the Global or Master control right here, but I actually want to use the three different controls for the various parts of the tonal range on this shot. Well, what I want to do is get this Master control out of the way. So I am going to select it, and move it over here to the edge of the Color Board.
Now, just make sure that it's actually not making a correction. You can see right now, if I come down to this part underneath of the Color Board, that we are making a correction. I want to make sure that these values are zeroed out. So I will just use the Arrow keys to zero them out, just like that. Next, what I want to do is first start with the Midtones control. I am going to take that and drag over here into the yellow-red section of the shot. Something like this is working just fine. Maybe I will boost the color a little bit more; something like that. All right! I am liking that. Next, let's come into the Shadows control, this guy right here, and also drag over to yellow-red.
Something like that is working pretty well as well. Maybe I will boost the color just a touch. Then finally, I am actually going to use the Highlights control and not drag over towards yellow-red but actually drag up into the positive blue area right here. This will keep my highlights a little less yellow-red. So I will drag up just a touch. Something like that is working really nice. Now, the main advantage of creating a wash in this way is that you have control over the three parts of the tonal range-- Shadows, Midtones, and Highlights--as compared to the first shot where we only had one control to create the wash.
Let's go down here to the timeline and scrub through these shots. Here is the second shot. It looks pretty good. And here's the first shot, and if I scrub between them, they look like they match together. So that's creating a wash look, and it's something that you will be asked to do from time to time and something that's actually really straightforward and simple to do on the Color Board here in Final Cut Pro X.

Nurse Triage (NT24)
Nurse Triage (NT24) provides a direct connection to expert nurses 24/7 to help manage on-the-job injuries when they occur. Coventry's NT24 program is designed to provide an assessment of the illness or injury, direct the caller to the most appropriate level of care, and educate the caller. Armed with clinical knowledge and evidence-based triage guidelines, our nurses can help injured employees make informed decisions about the most appropriate level of care and care setting. Nurse triage at the time of injury can also building trust and sets things in a positive direction, often preventing the incident from becoming an actual claim.
Employers who utilize nurse triage for workers' comp have seen significant decreases in the number of medical and indemnity claims and in workers' comp-related medical costs. Even more important, by providing access to a nurse at a critical point in the process, these employers have demonstrated that they want their injured employees to receive timely and appropriate care. In essence, they are giving their employees a clear roadmap to help point them toward a desirable outcome for all involved.
Success of the program is evidenced by our high rate of client satisfaction. According to one large retail employer, "Nurse Triage is working very well; we are consistently pleased with this program. We have significantly less claims this year over last year at the same time and we believe a lot of this is because of the Nurse Triage program. They do a wonderful job in consulting with our injured workers and identifying the next steps. Our entire organization believes in this program and feels it has made a big difference."

The deadline has now closed for the 2016 essay contest and once again the judges had a difficult task in selecting the five finalists that would represent the UK at the European level of the competition. The style of writing and the subject matter was varied and of a very high standard.
You can read the essays selected to represent the UK in this year's European final below. Winners will be announced at the end of September 2016
We are hoping this years' finalists will follow in the footsteps of last years' when the UK celebrated an unprecedented 2 winners in the competition. We were very excited and proud to celebrate the fact that 15 year old Lewis Shaw from Annan in Dumfries and Galloway had won the junior category of the competition. Even better Lyn Street from Newport, South Wales won the senior category as well. Both writers received a bumper $1,000 each in prize money.
Lewis told a humorous tale of how his teachers inspired him to learn braille which now stands him in good stead for his future studies. He said
'I personally use both braille and computer screen-readers. I use a lot of braille when cramming for exams as the physical touch seems to help the information or certain difficult words or formulae to sink in.'
Lyn's essay took a light hearted look at the advantages of using braille. She said
'Braillists are the only people who can truly say we have information "at our fingertips". When used by others this is a metaphor, but for us it's a fact – it's the way we read!'
The full essays are well worth a read and are available to download below
How to enter next years' competition
We are hoping that Onkyo (A Japanese technology company) will continue to sponsor this competition. We are usually notified of their intent in the month of February. If you would like to receive notification of the competition as soon as soon as it is confirmed then please send your contact details to email@example.com

We were almost home! The plane began its final descent, I began nursing our two month old, our first flight with an infant was going just as planned, then all of a sudden I felt a huge burst, and then another! My eyes shot open and my mouth fell open in panic; I knew without looking we were probably in for a mess. I told my husband, as I motioned for him to take our little guy so I could get things ready to change him. We had already established that the airplane lavatory had NO changing table so we were going to need to change him on our laps. As I removed my nursing cover, and began handing our screaming baby to my husband, I noticed that he had pooped all over my khaki shorts, all over himself, and on his blanket… I wanted to cry! My husband held him slightly above his lap, while I regrouped, grabbed our 'emergency plastic bags' and began cleaning him up. Although it was a mess, we lucky were very well prepared! We cleaned up my pants, then laid him down and removed his diaper. We were on the mend. Suddenly, the plane jolted and the extremely poopy {sorry for the details, but they are important} slid off my legs and down between the window seat and the window. We now had a poopy diaper smeared ALL OVER the plane. At that moment, I bit my tongue and mentally told myself that I would NEVER laugh about this moment; you know, one of those kind of moments! Well, although we managed to clean it all up, apologized profusely to the poor lady sitting next to us on the aisle seat {who will probably never want children if she'd didn't have any already}, we only walked off the airplane with stained shorts and much less pride; our son cleaned up, in new clothes, was as happy as could be.
This is the reason why I share these 10 Flying Tips with you! We fly rather frequently, and can't imagine {and try not to} what would have happened had we not been prepared for the unexpected. Other tips shared are those we've learned over the past 3 years of flying with little ones and things others have shared with us; enjoy and good luck on your flight!
1. 'Emergency' Bags
It is sure to relieve some of your stress of flying with infants or toddlers if you plan for those little 'emergencies'. We make one bag for each child and use this in place of hauling the diaper bag on the airplane! We toss these into our larger family 'carry on' bag.
'Emergency' Bag Suggested Contents: Extra pair of clothes, 2 diapers, 2 plastic Ziploc bags (gallon-sized), extra wipes, and a special snack/treat that is sure to calm your fussy infant or toddler)
2. Nap Times
You know your child best! Talk to your spouse and discuss if it is better to fly during their nap time or after. Some children do well sleeping on planes, but so do not and a no-nap child can make for a 'messy' flight! Discuss what might be best for your child. If you've never flown before, compare it to being in the car. How do they do in their car seat?
For example, we prefer to fly just prior to our boys' nap times. They are excited and not overtired when we board the plane, then the white noise lulls them to sleep after a while. We also allow our three-year old to bring along his blankie which otherwise stays in his bed. He loves that when flying he gets to bring it along in his backpack; it's a special treat to him.
3. Nursing Moms & Babies
It is best to board the plane with a well-feed, happy baby. However, it is also helpful to bring along a bottle of breastmilk or your nursing cover and feed them a little while you are both ascending and descending; this helps the pressure not to build up in their ears. If you little one screams of pain during the flight, try feeding even just a little bit to possibly relieve any air pressure pain they may be feeling.
You CAN carry breastmilk on the plane with you! Just pull it out while going through security and when they see it in the bottle, they will run a few tests on it and return it to you without any hassle! This was so helpful to know when planning to visit family when my husband and I might be spending time away without the kids. I usually always took two bottles full of breastmilk in a small cooler bag, then stored them in a refrigerator when we arrived.
4. Toddlers & Drinks
A favorite 'trick' we have come across is bringing our own empty sippy cups. Fill your child's cup with a little water or juice after securtity and just before boarding the plane. Encouraging them to drink on both the ascension and descension will prevent any pain from air pressure. Big Brother loves to order a drink from the flight attendant but their cups {without lids} make me rather nervous. Now, Big Brother and even Little Brother hand the flight attendant their cups and ask politely for their favorite drink. This makes everyone happy and saves us from cleaning up any messes!
If you do have a favorite drink your toddler enjoys, that they don't offer on the airplane, bring it along in a sippy cup. Again, just like I mentioned (above) for breastmilk the security workers will do a quick test on it and let you bring it along without dumping it out! It is considered 'medical' equipment.
5. Snacks
Pack small snack baggies for your babies eating solids and toddlers.
Surprise Foil Balls: Wrap a few small snacks in foil and let your toddlers see how long it takes them to peal them open! This is a great, fun 'take anywhere' fine motor skill activity that your children can anticipate on long trips!
Themed Snack Bags: Create a themed snack bag with some of your child's favorite foods. For example, an ocean themed bag with Goldfish crackers, a few Sweedish Fish, and Grapes (bubbles).
{Non-Messy} Favorites- Crackers, Squeezeable fruits or vegetables, Cheerios, Cheese Sticks, Fruit Snacks, Licorice, Crasins/Raisins, Grapes,
6. 'Flying' Through the Security Lines
Here are a few quick tips to help things go quickly and smoothly in the security lines:
- Little kids can leave their shoes on now; adults must remove their shoes
- Make sure all liquids under 3oz are in small clear plastic baggies and you pull them out
- Pull out all liquids for your child (breastmilk and juices) so they can easily spot them
- You must take run all strollers through the scanners, so be ready to pull your child out and hold them
- Baby Bjorn carriers are great for airports, however security officers are sometimes inconsistent about whether or not you have to take your child out when going through security scanners
- Have all phones, cameras, laptops, ipads easily accessible to pull-out and run through separately
- Remind yourself that it's ok to go slow and not rush through; you have children, others in a hurry can move to a different line
7. Traveling Alone with Kids
One of our favorite little 'less known' secrets of flying has been that when approached respectfully, most ticket agents will give your {non-flying} spouse or family member a ticket to walk back to the gate with you, to provide you with additional assistance. This has been a life-saver when I fly alone with our two toddlers to visit my parents!
You can also make your flight attendant know that you are flying alone and they most often will check-up on you to see if there is anything they can help you with.
Helpful Seating: While it may seem like a hassle to sit in the back while traveling alone, I prefer it! Big Brother typically has to go to the bathroom on the airplane both out of amusement and necessity. Sitting in the back, allows me the ability to keep Little Brother in his seat monitored, while standing in the aisle outside the door ready to help Big Brother if needed. This is a HUGE help!
8. Strollers
Each family and each trip call for different equipment when you have young children! Don't allow people to make you feel like you are or aren't bringing enough along with you; sit down and discuss your trip with your spouse and talk through whether or not you will need strollers. Luckily, our family has always been great at accommodating our abundance of 'stuff' when we travel places.
When our boys were infants, we loved traveling with the Baby Bjorn and checked our stroller with baggage. This kept our hands free and we only have limited bags and 'extras' to deal with. Now, we typically use an umbrella stroller our Little Brother and Big Brother walks along beside us {or rides on the back, shh}. One negative I've found about our umbrella stroller, is that we don't have a food tray on the front for Little Brother to place food, snacks, or drinks on while we are waiting at the gate (this would be a perk to taking a travel system stroller for babies).
9. Car Seats
Taking Your Car seat: You have 2 options when taking your car seat on the plane. You can check it with your luggage or you can take it on the plane with you. If you check your car seat, it does not count as a piece of your checked baggage, because it is considered 'medical equipment'.The airlines will place it in a plastic bag for you when you check it in, or you can purchase a cushioned travel carrier (see below). If you plan to take your car seat on the plane with you, the hardest part may be getting it back to the gate. A few options to consider are connecting your car seat to your stroller and pushing it back, or purchasing a Traveling Toddler Car Seat Accessory (see below).
We don't bring them unless we have to! For example, when visiting my parents they actually borrow car seats from some of their 'grandparent' friends for us to use. When flying on vacation, we don't typically bring a car seat because we will have a taxi {and request 2 car seats} to the resort, then we walk to restaurants and around the town. If we need a car seat, we will ask the hotel to call a taxi with 2 car seats! If we will be renting a car, then we typically take a car seat along.
If Your Car Seat Gets Lost: Don't worry! You will not be stuck in the airport with a screaming toddler! Speak to the airline as most airlines have 'loaner' car seat {not ideal, I know, but necessary}.
Renting Car Seats: Many car rental companies will also rent car seats along with the car. Request this when reserving your car.
Remember- Children under 2 fly FREE as a lap child, unless you want to purchase a seat for them.
10. Surprises!
Who doesn't love surprises, right!? Growing up, my mom always made "Goody Bags" for vacations. I would anticipate getting my "Goody Bag" from before we even left for our trips. Create a little "Goody Bag" for your child(ren). Fun things to color, play with, read, look at, etc. while they are both on the airplane and maybe something fun they will be able to anticipate using once they arrive! Keep the bags hidden, and pull them out at 'just the right time'; trust me {said with a giggle} you'll know exactly when that time arrives!
*If it's your child's 1st flight, be sure to tell the Flight Attendant! Many airlines and pilots will be happy to take pictures with your baby, offer 'wings', and sometimes even certificates!

Product Review (submitted on June 8, 2010):
I bought this after I fell in love with Vanilla Comoro, a Harney decaf offering that really is a true dessert tea. The vanilla flavor is not as strong in this one, but I use it differently, too. Vanilla Comoro is really my night-time and instead of a slice of cake tea! Best of all, this one is great iced, so I can have good tea even in the heat and humidity here. Since it is not as strongly flavored as my beloved Comoro, it pairs well with our afternoon tea time foods. There is a place for BOTH teas on the shelf!

10 Best Sketches of 'Saturday Night Live' Season 38
Ex-porn stars, Bill Hader's farewell, Christoph Waltz as Djesus, and more
By Ryan McGee | Sunday, Jun 2, 2013 12:00 AM
Last week, HitFix broke down the worst ten moments of the thirty-eighth season of "Saturday Night Live." This week, we're ending on a high note by looking at the absolute best of the past year. While this wasn't a strong season on the whole, there were still plenty of amazing moments strewn throughout. Some of what follows are
individual sketches. Some are overall trends. All represent "SNL" operating at its peak.
Check out our picks for the ten best here:
10 Best Sketches of 'Saturday Night Live' Season 38
That Werewolf GuyI really don't get the love for DJESUS UNCROSSED. It's pretty much just a mix of GHANDI 2 from Weird Al's UHF and that TERMINATOR 3 sketch that MAD TV did in the late 90s.June 2, 2013 at 4:26AM ESTReply to Comment
carpooltunnel (guest)The first ex-porn stars sketch was far and away the best of the three. It was unexpected, weird, and wild, even for the "try anything" final sketch slot. It also was the strongest sketch for an otherwise underprepared and luke-warm Foxx. The second one was eye-rolling for the most part, the exception being the dedicated performances of Bayer and Strong. The third was better overall than the second, but Afleck was off all night and seemed exhausted by show's end.
Even losing Hader (Armison checked out long ago), I feel confident in the newest additions. Cecily was able to hit the screen and find each character immediately, a confidence so often lacking in the new recruits. Same with McKinnon, whose range and impersonation skills are going to prove vital. Killam improves each season, and it's encouraging to see a strong player (Mokiki kills me) who doesn't break following the era of Hader (whom I love, but breaks every five seconds), Wiig, and Meyers. I didn't have high hopes for Robinson at first, as he was a bit wobbly out of the gate, but I think he's shown some strengths as the season moves on, and might hold up if they give him more than scraps in the coming season. Bryant is on the fence, but I think they underplayed her, so we'll have to see if she gets more stage time.
I used to think that Pedrad is woefully underused, but she had the lead or co-lead in two prominent sketches this season. Her performance with Baldwin was one note, but funny, but her socially awkward party character is grating and awful. Outside of Huffington, I just don't know what her strengths are. They've made it abundantly clear that Phaoroh is there only for Obama, and his look and impersonation skills are phenomenal, but I think Armison (when he still cared) had better instincts, and the shows really f'd up by passing on Jordan Peele (though the existence of Key & Peele more than makes up for it). I still like Sudeikis, but his ennui is showing, and I can't imagine him sticking around after next season. Thompson is more hit than miss, and Bayer and Moynihan are strong anchors that rarely disappoint. The hosts were mostly "just good" this year, with a few standouts and too many bombs. But fans have learned not to look forward to the host, I think.
There will always be naysayers, but this show is shaky by design, and when it hits, it hits hard. As always, looking forward to next season.June 2, 2013 at 6:12AM ESTReply to Comment

No doubt, George Soros is one of the best stock-pickers on Earth.
In 1973, he founded the Quantum Fund. Over the next two decades, Soros went on to generate a 30% compounded annual return for his investors. Thanks to that type of performance, he has cemented his place amongst investing legends like Warren Buffett and Julian Robertson.
Because of his exceptional track record, I always pay close attention to what stocks Soros is buying. Right now, he's making some interesting bets on the Canadian mining industry.
This "mining" company could double your money
In recent quarters, Soros hasn't hesitated to express his concerns about fiat currencies and his preference for hard assets. That's probably why he has accumulated massive positions in mining companies like Barrick Gold, Goldcorp, and Yamana Gold. These metal producers are leveraged bets on higher gold prices and a hedge against inflation.
He also just picked up a new position. Buried inside a recent 13-F SEC filing, Soros disclosed a $9.1 million stake in precious metals giant Silver Wheaton (TSX: SLW)(NYSE: SLW

Hot Chicks Get Us in the Christmas Spirit By Bouncing Their 'Santa Boobies' [VIDEO]
There's no better reminder of how magical this time of year is than hot chicks dressed as Santa, bouncing around and spreading cheer. It's a Christmas miracle!
There's no better reminder of how magical this time of year is than hot chicks dressed as Santa, bouncing around and spreading cheer. It's a Christmas miracle!
Yet again, Santa is pissed. I'm not really sure what started this brawl but more confusing to me is the number of Santa gatherings that have been going on. Is there a mall Santa union that I don't know about.
With people were already lined up for Black Friday deals the day after Thanksgiving, Producer Joe decided to see if anyone would mind if he cut the line...
I have a soft spot for Christmas music with an edge, and every year, I'm always in search of new Christmas metal and rock songs. This holiday tune from August Burns Red remains one of my favorite. (It doesn't hurt that I've always really enjoyed August Burn Red's music.)
Supposedly the "Epic Split" Jean-Claude Van Damme pulled off in the godaddy.com commercial was done without any special effects. While we probably can't say that about this video, it's awesome anyway.
Holiday gimmicks, chances are you've seen 'em all. Seems like every holiday season someone tries to cook up another video, meme, or post to get you feeling festive...
Every Christmas/Holiday season shoppers try to get the best deal for their buck on tablets, phones, and all the other big tech gadgets of the year. However, there are also people who use this time of year to, we'll call it,"scam the system". So which is this guy? Is he the one getting screwed or is he trying to screw someone else. Watch the video and then tell us what do you think?
Christmas cards, photos of families in ugly Santa sweaters, even holiday newsletters are so two-thousand and late compared to this video. Watch as the Holderness family updates us on their past year in a fun and creative way. One viewers opinion on YouTube credits the mom in the video for all the views. Check her, and the video out for yourself. Ho Ho Ho!
Just in time for the holiday, Kmart presents another installment of their funny 'Ship your Pants' campaign. This time around the commercial stars characters from 'A Christmas Carol'.
'Home Alone' is pretty much on TV around the clock this time of year. Everybody has seen it and knows the story, but many have never seen this long lost deleted scene where Kevin McAllister (Macaulay Culkin) gets a glimpse of his terrifying future.
Transformers are cool, but the first toys I remember getting into (besides Barbies) were GoBots. I don't know why, but I loved them. Doing some Christmas toy shopping, I got nostalgic and dug up this old school GoBots video!

Can I use flintstone in an aquarium?
Can I put flintstone in a freshwater aquarium after I soaked it in vinegar for removing the lime crust?
flintstone mainly consists of silicium dioxide and does not contain lime. Removing lime with an acid is therefore not necessary, rinsing and removing attached dirt is sufficient. A white crust on flintstone does not consist of lime although it looks similar.
If the rock actually contains lime (in that case it will foam if you drip some sufficiently strong acid on it, e.g. sera pH-minus), it is not a flintstone. However, there are no general objections against lime containing rock. The hardness may increase somewhat in acidic water, but usually not so strongly that you could not keep it under control with usual water changes. Very strong CO2 fertilization in combination with lime rock will increase hardness more strongly (remember calcium reactors in saltwater aquariums!).
Best regards

As Connecticut stumbled yet again on Tuesday night, fellow Big East bubble-team West Virginia was able to avoid a similarly devastating loss.
While UConn suffered a brutal 72-70 at the hands of Providence—the league's second-to-last-place team—WVU dominated against last-place DePaul, winning 92-75. With the victory, the Mountaineers snapped a four-game home losing streak which was capped by a tough loss to Marquette last Friday.
Meanwhile, Xavier was also fighting to improve their position on the NCAA Tournament bubble Tuesday night. However, it faced a bigger challenge than West Virginia. The Musketeers lost at Saint Louis—the second-place team in the Atlantic 10—by a final of 70-59. It was Xavier's second loss to SLU this season.
Where do the Mountaineers and Musketeers now stand in the tourney picture after their most recent games? Here's a look at each, with records and rankings listed below.
West Virginia: 18-12, 8-9 Big East; RPI: 50, SOS: 10
Xavier: 18-11, 9-6 A-10; RPI: 54, SOS: 51
Notable common opponents: Cincinnati (both beat), Oral Roberts (WVU beat, Xavier lost to)

Ask the Mayor: Was this building once City Hall?
A rumor circulates about a downtown San Clemente building. Yes, the building is old, but is it what the sign says it is?
This is one in a series of questions submitted to Mayor Lori Donchak on her Mayor's Blog at san-clemente.org.
Dear Mayor:
I heard from someone that the building at the head of Del Mar which indicates it was the Historic Town Hall was indeed never the town hall at all. Is this true?
If so, then why does the city allow this owner to project an image of historical importance to our town falsely? It just seems wrong, unless, of course, it is in some way true.
Thanks for responding.
Hi, John.
Historic City Hall at 101 S. El Camino Real carries historic significance for San Clemente. It was built in 1929, shortly after the city incorporated, and was owned by Oscar Easley, one of the original City Council members and an associate of Ole Hanson.
Easley's role in our city's creation was constructing the city's original streets. He branded his building Historic City Hall. I am not a lawyer, but it's been explained to me that it's a defendable brand.
Meanwhile, as a point of interest, according to San Clemente Chief Preservation Officer Jim Pechous, the original City Hall was the Bartlett Building (1928). (Editor's note: That's across the street from Historic City Hall, home today to Hobie Sports.)
However, between 1930 and 1936, the Easley building actually was used as San Clemente's City Hall. There were other locations since then, but 100 Avenida Presidio has been San Clemente City Hall officially since 1963. The city also has offices at 910 Calle Negocio as a result of city expansion in recent decades.
Historic City Hall is a nice example of Spanish Colonial architecture.
