Call for PhD Application in Cultural Approaches to Diagnostic Technologies in East Asia
Fellowship Date:
Date Submitted:
Announcement ID:
Research area: Science and Technology Studies / History of Health / Medical Anthropology / Medical Sociology
Applications are invited for a three-year, full-time, funded PhD position in Cultural Approaches to Diagnostic Technologies in East Asia in the Centre for the Humanities and Medicine (CHM) at The University of Hong Kong.
This position has developed out of a collaborative research initiative between CHM and the International Diagnostics Centre (IDC) at the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine on diagnostics for communicable disease. Recent research has demonstrated the importance of dynamic contextual processes and environmental factors in determining how individuals, populations, and health systems respond to novel technologies and disease control interventions. However, the role of socio-cultural factors is often unacknowledged in technology development, implementation, and assessments, with consequences for the uptake and efficacy of healthcare delivery and disease control in the population. The collaboration between CHM and IDC aims to promote cross-disciplinary research into diagnostic technologies, foregrounding the significance of socio-cultural contexts in the development, successful integration, and sustainable implementation of diagnostic technologies for infectious diseases in East Asia.
The PhD candidate should have a Masters degree (with merit or distinction) or equivalent, preferably with a background in Science and Technology Studies, History of Medicine and Health, Anthropology, or Sociology. The PhD is for 36 months and the candidate is expected to register not later than January 1, 2014.
Applications must be submitted via the standard on-line application process for HKU. For further information on research postgraduate education at Hong Kong University, application procedure and financial assistance, see http://www.gradsch.hku.hk/gradsch/web/apply/index_ps.htm. Full-time PhD students who hold a first degree with second-class honors first division (or equivalent) or above are normally considered eligible to receive a Postgraduate Studentship during the normative study period. Candidates' results in Master's degrees may also be considered. The basic level of studentship is currently HK$13,600 (US$1,740) per month (subject to revision). Candidates may also apply for other financial awards. The Hong Kong PhD Fellowship (HKPF) provides each awardee with a monthly studentship of HK$20,000 and a conference and research related travel allowance of HK$10,000 per year for a period up to three years.
The deadline for application is 31 August 2013.

First impression on unpacking the Q702 test unit was the solid feel and clean, minimalist styling.
Anthony Grifoni
For work use, Microsoft Word and Excel programs pre-installed on the device are adequate for preparing short documents.
Steph Mundell
The Fujitsu LifeBook UH574 allowed for great mobility without being obnoxiously heavy or clunky. Its twelve hours of battery life did not disappoint.
Andrew Mitsi
The screen was particularly good. It is bright and visible from most angles, however heat is an issue, particularly around the Windows button on the front, and on the back where the battery housing is located.
Simon Harriott
My first impression after unboxing the Q702 is that it is a nice looking unit. Styling is somewhat minimalist but very effective. The tablet part, once detached, has a nice weight, and no buttons or switches are located in awkward or intrusive positions.

Thats a preliminary figure from the insurance companies weve surveyed so far, Mr. Oxendine said in a news release. Its quite possible that more claims will come in, causing the number to rise.
The commissioner said the storms that raged across Georgia caused damage in the metro Atlanta area and many central Georgia counties.
In South Carolina, where at least one person died in an Aiken County tornado, damages were estimated at $6 million, according to the South Carolina Insurance News Service.
Nearly 2,000 insurance claims had been filed by this afternoon, and preliminary damage estimates were expected to rise, said Allison Dean Love of the news service.
"There may be people who are still filing claims," she said. "We'll have a better idea as to what the total figures are later this week."
South Carolina Electric and Gas reported that a few dozen of its customers in Aiken County were still without power today, but electricity had been restored to most of the 10,000 SCE&G customers and 13,000 Duke Energy customer who lost power over the weekend.

Chris Ault teaches as many students as any college professor in the nation.
"The Pistol (the Nevada Wolf Pack football offense) now is a hot topic all around the country," the 63-year-old Wolf Pack head coach said. "I can't tell you how many coaches call me in the off-season and want to talk about it. That's what I do in the off-season now. I go and talk to coaches all over the country. I could do that every week if I wanted to.
"It's incredible. But it's a lot of fun. We've enjoyed talking to a lot of people all over the country."
The Pied Piper of the Pistol has followers from West Coast to East Coast and all campuses in between. There will be dozens of college football teams, ranging from Alabama, LSU, Indiana as well as the Kansas City Chiefs and Miami Dolphins, using some aspect of the Pack's Pistol this year. A new convert this past off-season was the UCLA Bruins, who visited Reno last winter.
"Rick (head coach Neuheisel), Norm (offensive coordinator Chow) and a couple of their other coaches were here for two days," Ault said. "And we went down there, too. They really studied it. They liked the running game aspect of it. We had a great time talking football with those guys."
Neuheisel, like all coaches tend to do, was quick to put his stamp on Ault's Pistol this spring, calling it "The Revolver," because "it's going to be more loaded."
It is difficult to imagine the Pistol having more bullets than the Pack's version in 2009. The Wolf Pack led the nation in rushing at 345 yards a game and were second in total offense at 506 yards. The Pack also became the first team in college football history with three 1,000-yard rushers in the same season.
"I tell people, 'That's something you may never see in your lifetime again,'" said Ault of the Pack's trio of 1,000-yard rushers (quarterback Colin Kaepernick and backs Luke Lippincott and Vai Taua).
Ault's intention, when he devised the Pistol after the 2004 season was to beef up the run game by getting the quarterback more involved. No coach in the history of the sport has probably succeeded with his plan as well as Ault did a year ago.
"To me, it was about running the ball until the other team proved they could stop it," said Kaepernick. "There were games when we really didn't have to throw a pass to win. Nobody really proved they could stop our run game all year."
The Pack ran all over their opponents in 2009, even in games they didn't win. The Pack ran for 153 yards on Notre Dame, 169 on Colorado State, 218 on Missouri, 242 on Boise State and 137 on SMU, all losses.
"The run game was our bread and butter," said Taua, breaking out into a huge grin. "You don't go away from your bread and butter."
The run game, however, literally overwhelmed the Pack passing attack, turning it into an afterthought. In one three-game stretch, in blowout victories over San Jose State, Fresno State and New Mexico State, the Pack ran the ball a mind-boggling 170 times for 1,552 yards and 22 touchdowns combined, numbers that few teams in the history of college football have ever dreamed of in a three-game stretch.
In those same three games the Pack attempted just 41 passes and gained just 289 yards combined. Past Pack quarterbacks like Eric Beavers, John Dutton, Chris Vargas, Mike Maxwell, David Neill and even Kaepernick himself, used to routinely do that in one afternoon.
"We planned on throwing the ball more last year," Ault said. "But as we got into the season we started doing different things in our running game because we were having so much success. Our running game just somewhat exploded and took off."
Kaepernick was more than happy to put his right arm in storage last season.
"To me, it's not about how many times we throw the ball," he said. "It's about keeping drives alive, keeping the chains moving."
The Pack quarterback, though, admits that the running game's success ultimately hurt the passing game. When the Pack needed the aerial attack late in the year, in losses to Boise State and SMU, it just wasn't there. Somebody forgot to reload the Pistol with all of its bullets.
"Yes, the run game did hurt the passing game a little," Kaepernick said. "We kept on practicing it and working on it but when you don't use it that much in the game, it's only natural to be a little out of sync."
The passing game, Ault said, is the next phase of the Pistol.
"Where this Pistol offense has to go next is to create some consistency in the passing game," said Ault, the only coach in the history of college football to have his offense lead the nation in passing (1995) and rushing (2009). "We have to improve the efficiency in the passing game and Kap is the key to that."
Kaepernick, whom Ault calls "the best running quarterback in the country," is on the same page as his head coach.
"The passing game is always about accuracy," Kaepernick said. "I don't want to throw balls that our receivers can't catch. That's what I have to improve on."
The Pied Piper of the Pistol knows as well as anyone that an offense that ceases to evolve is an offense that will get you a 5-8 season.
"The great thing about this offense is that no matter what offense you run, you can take some aspect of it," Ault said. "Coaches call us and talk about it and we love it because we also learn from them. We ask them what they are doing and we can use that in our offense. You always have to take it to the next level. Last year it was the two-back system. This year it's about more efficiency in the passing game."
Now in it's sixth year, the Pistol not only has rejuvenated the Pack running game, it also energized its head coach.
"I'm more involved now because of the Pistol," Ault said. "It's a lot of fun. It keeps me enthused and excited and it's all because of the Pistol.
"The neat thing about it is that this is something that's ours. When people talk about the Pistol, they say it's Nevada's Pistol. This is something that belongs to this university."

Good energy, interesting observations and, at times, humorous. Few real 'laugh out loud' moments and the show wasn't quite as 'polished' as I had expected.

Rated 5 out of 5 by 1 reviewer.Rated 5 out of 5 by Rownd Really well thought out Great fun addition to safety belt but also very paractical. Can be used as adult safety belt cover too. It saves chaffing neck in summer when neck is uncovered and belt cuts in and become uncomfortable. Just as good for adults or children and looks great too! 15 July 20151-1 of 1

This season has been anything but predictable for the Packers.
The Green Bay Packers backfield is at a crossroads.
Eddie Lacy, the second round pick from 2013, was supposed to be the bell cow back for years.
247Sports insider Luke Rodgers assesses what's going on with the Packers running back.
The Green Bay Packers passing game has been in shambles for most of the season. Now the Packers running back situation has become muddled with more questions than answers challenging Mike McCarthy's coaching staff.
During the Packers' three-game slide, one of the main issues was balance.
Injuries are synonymous with the NFL. It's a collision sport, so naturally there are going to be players getting hurt.
When the Green Bay Packers step on to TFC Field this weekend they will be facing a make-or-break situation. Win and they regain a portion of first place in the NFC North. Lose and they face an uphill battle to win their fifth straight NFC North title.
You can understand losing at Denver and at Carolina.
Mike McCarthy made his first big move of the year.

We're at the quarter pole of the season already and the Packers are right where they want to be.
The Packers running back has a chance to play Monday night against the Chiefs.
Being a backup in sports is awkward. You don't get the same reps that the No. 1 units get, but you are expected to be ready at a moment's notice.
We take you around the NFC North and check in on the Green Bay Packers and their rivals the Chicago Bears, Detroit Lions and Minnesota Vikings. After week one of the NFL season the Packers find themsleves all alone in first place.
Two very familiar foes will line up across from one another this coming Sunday in Chicago when the Green Bay Packers take on the Chicago Bears. One team is the model of consistency and a popular pick to play in Super Bowl 50. The other team lightly regarded and picked to finish last in the NFC North.
The Packers may only be three games into the worthless preseason schedule, but I'm not expecting Aaron Rodgers to come out with another R-E-L-A-X ...
The one player that the Green Bay Packers can least afford to lose to injury, who is not named Aaron Rodgers, is third year pro David Bakhtiari. There is just no suitable replacement for him on the current roster without a major shuffle of personnel.

Fans, fun. have a blast at Marcus Amphitheater
The moment, indeed the last two years, have belonged to fun.

'Before I Die' wall installed at Sky High
Death has a way of clarifying life, or so say great philosophers and New Orleans artist Candy Chang. It has a way of making us examine the kind of person we want to be, the life we want to live, the people who are important to us.
On Tuesday, people in the Bay View neighborhood were confronted by the finiteness of their lives as a result of one of Chang's projects. A wall that reads "Before I die I want to..." and has little buckets of colored chalk so people can fill in the blanks was installed at the Sky High Skateboard Shop and Gallery, 2501 S. Howell Ave., and in cities across the U.S. on Tuesday. »Read Full Blog Post(2)

The prime use of headset mics is likely for coverage of sporting events. With typically so much ambient noise and the announcers constantly moving, the headset provides the isolation needed to monitor the broadcast while the fixed mic location ensures consistent audio pickup. But these advantages can be beneficial when covering other events, such as a political convention, major news event or even a remote from a large venue.
We looked for models that offered circumaural earpieces. By covering the ear, there is greater isolation from outside noise. We also liked headsets that allowed the mic boom to be placed at either side of the announcer's mouth. Doing this will reverse the left and right earpieces, so a stereo image will be reversed. If that's a problem, add a channel reverse adapter to the remote kit.
The types of mic pickup are flavors of a cardioid pattern. A classic cardioid has the best rear rejection, but the sides still have good pickup. As the patterns move to super- and hypercardioid, more rear pickup creeps in as the side pickup is reduced. You may need to experiment with various patterns to decide which works best for your application.
Some models feature a muting function when the mic boom is moved to the top of the set or removed from the user's head. This may come in handy in some uses.
Take note of the connectors when buying a headset. Some break out to XLR and TRS, while others use a 4- or 5-pin XLR. Others may have no connectors at all.
AKG HSD171This closed, on-ear studio headset provides high noise isolation for loud environments. The headset combines the K171 MKII studio headphones with a rugged dynamic microphone. The flexible microphone arm mutes the microphone automatically as it is moved up. The headset also has a switch in the headband that mutes the audio when the headphones are taken off. The cable connects to the headphones via a six-pin mini XLR connector. Also available is the HSC171, which features a condenser mic.Headphones: 18Hz to 26kHz, 55ωMic: 60Hz to 17kHz, hypercardioid, 600ωakg.com
Audio-Technica BPHS1This rugged headset features closed-back around-the-ear ear to provide maximum comfort and ambient noise rejection. Neodynium magnets are used in the mic and headphone for higher output. The headset has a boom-mounted, dynamic microphone that can be positioned for use on either side of the mouth. The 3.3m detachable cable is terminated in a 3-pin XLR and 1/4" TRS for the mic and headphone. It includes three mic windscreens and a spare connector screw.Headphones: 20Hz to 20kHz, 65ωMic: 40Hz to 20kHz, cardioid, 560ωaudio-technica.com
Beyer Dynamic DT 790This headset combines the classic closed-design DT 770 PRO with the addition of a pivoting gooseneck microphone boom with a dynamic DT 290 element. Neutrik connectors are used throughout. The 1.5m cable has a 4-pin XLR or no connector to install your own. The microphone boom can be used at left or right side or can be moved into standby (upper) position. An optional limiter can be ordered to protect a user's hearing during use. The threshold is specified when the headset is ordered. The DT 797 with a condenser cardioid microphone is also available.Headphones: 5Hz to 30kHz, 80ωMic: 40Hz to 12kHz, hypercardioid, 200ωbeyerdynamic-usa.com
Sennheiser HMD280 ProThe lightweight, ergonomic headphone attenuates ambient noise by 32dB via a closed-back, circumaural design is paired with a super-cardioid dynamic microphone mounted on a flexible, acoustically isolated boom. A single, coiled (1m to 3m) cable carries monitoring and talkback signals. The cable is attached, but can be replaced in the field. The microphone boom can be rotated for use from either side of the mouth. The entire assembly collapses for transport. It includes a wind/pop filter. Headphones: 8Hz to 25kHz, 64ω (300ω optional)Mic: 50Hz to 13.5kHz, supercardioid, 200ωsennheiserusa.com
Shure BRH440MThis closed-back, circumaural headset with neodymium magnets offers sound isolation from background noise. The dynamic cardioid microphone is mounted on a boom that pivots 270 degrees for left or right side wear. A flip-up mute function deactivates the boom microphone when it is raised vertically away from the mouth. The single-side, detachable cable is unterminated to allow the user to attach his own connectors. The user-replaceable cable, ear pads and windscreen are included.Headphones: 15Hz to 27kHz, 300ωMic: 50Hz to 15kHz, cardioid, 200ωshure.com

http://img406.imageshack.us/img406/2...5914883mk7.jpg ) Those are definitely hand drawn; you can tell by the inconsistent tile thickness and the sketchiness.
Pseudo-3D is a term that I think is more applicable to actual game play, not the more "traditionally" animated cut scenes?
There's absolutely nothing wrong with being a huge fan, unless you start attacking people or trying to establish superiority with it.
As for flaws in Simoun, I think there are plenty, but much like people, I think for shows you love best, you love them in their entirety, flaws and all. Flaws are also subjective: where one person feels the climax came too soon, I felt it was just right, because we focused on different things: the war plot versus the character development. There's no such thing as a perfect show, and if there was, it would probably be quite boring...hence, not perfect after all.

Wow. We really are lousy psychics, but I, at least, can say it's because I'm always pessimistic about everything.
This is pleasant news. I always like it when above average/ non-cookie cutter anime get licensed, because I hope it sends a message to the people who make anime that there is a market for something other that a cute girl boob comedy. Wonder what cover art they're going to use. Speaking of, is there a Simoun artbook anywhere?

Hmm... I hear Elfen Lied did horribly in Japan, but it's one of the most popular series in North America now. Maybe Media Blasters is going by that precedent.
If that's the case, though, it makes me wonder if they've actually seen the show ...
I'm still kinda in a state of disbelief over this. Definitely not something I would have put money on, even after AIR got licensed. Still great news, though

Women in combat - Interestingly enough there is one example woman pilots fighting in war - see
A Dance With Death: Soviet Airwomen in World War II
by Anne Noggle
Wings, Women, and War: Soviet Airwomen in World War II Combat
by Reina Pennington
Noggle's book is a collection of personal stories of 69 airwomen is especially
touching particularly the ending photos of the aged survivors. Pennington's book is the more scholarly and includes extensive lists, tables and political background etc. A soviet pilot Marina Raskova with an impressive prewar reputation something like Amelia Earhart was well known by Stalin and used her influence allow women pilots to fly in the Soviet airforce.
Here's note on Noggle's book
"From Publishers Weekly
Noggle, a U.S. Women's Airforce Service Pilot during WWII, traveled to Russia several times between 1990 and 1992 to record the reminiscences of 69 Soviet women airforce veterans. Trained as combat pilots, mechanics, navigators and ground crews after Stalin ordered the formation of three all-female air regiments in 1941, their mission was primarily defensive. A number of them became aces-i.e., they shot down five or more enemy planes. This was the first instance of widespread employment of women in combat by a major power. The women talk about their reasons for joining, the extremely rigorous training and harsh living conditions, the way the Soviet military system dealt with them collectively and individually and the role they played in tactical operations. There is plenty of adventure, emotion and drama in these pages, and readers will note that the experiences of these women were hardly different from those of their male counterparts. Noggle writes movingly of the continuing friendships among the survivors (about 100 are still alive) and their twice-yearly meetings in Moscow for a vodka-fueled, sisterly celebration. Most moving of all: the noble photos taken by Noggle of these veterans in old age. "
This makes one imagine the Simoun characters getting together years after their experiences - what would they be like then? etc etc

After seeing Kaioshin_Sama's post, I began to wonder what to post that would nudge people into giving the CDs and (hopefully) the series a chance.
I would give it a go but I'm afraid I'd come across as horribly fanboy-ish which would discredit anything I wrote and turn people off to it.
Any suggestions / volunteers?

Workin' sux!
I just recently (this morning) finished watching Simoun and found my way here as a result of my thirst for more and answers. I read most of the posts in this thread from around Sept on (basically right after ep 26 aired). Truth be told, I was very impressed with the level of detail and thought that went into a lot of the poster's comments.
Mostly I wanted to make sure that you guys know that I am officially a Simoun fanboy now. I loved the ending for the way it tied up some themes, but left some wide open. Truly a bittersweet conclusion, but more importantly one that made me reflect on myself and the way that different aspects of my life related to some of the characters. The last time I watched an anime that had this kind of personal affect on me was Evangelion.
As much as I want to know all of the answers that were never finalized, part of me also wants them to remain a mystery. Nothing in life is fully known or guaranteed, and just feeling that there may exist a type of love in the world that transcends spatial and temporal planes is enlightening. I feel like I'm now part of a small club
that "get's it". Whatever that may mean to you.
Sure it wasn't a perfect anime, there are aspets of it that could have been done better, but nothing is ever perfect. All in all I think that I'm a better person for watching it and I look forward to buying the DVD's. Thanks.

I finally finished this series yesterday. Man talk about getting around to it. Well, I had started watching it when it was airing but y'know there wasn't enough "work" going on for it. But I thank the ___ that put in the effort. I enjoyed it. That's all I can really say. I'll also say that the story is not as complex as people thought it was when it first aired. There was all this talk about the terminology that scared folks away. But once you get down to it things are pretty simple. The only problem I had was some of the story. While having some holes it's not so bad that you can't follow it. I sort of got a bit lost in the pacing toward the end. But I can see this series requires a second viewing to get some of the key points. I had to consult the wiki to understand what I missed. I'll say whoever put that write-up for the plot did a DAMN GOOD job. It summarized the whole point of the series in very little words. Not many grammatical errors either. But after reading it I could see where the series plot had issues trying to explain it. Which isn't necessarily a bad thing but it could have been better orchestrated. But all in all a decent story.
Lots of drama and emotional issues. Though I did find Aeru's voice interestingly odd. Talk about your "back-woods beast boonie". I kept finding myself wondering what the hell was she at times. She had no clue to how normal things worked. Knowledgle about combat but relationships no. It's like 'Tarzan' and the apes. It was like she lived her life as a wild animal. Which pretty much summed up her personality. She and 'Neviril' were about as different as apples and quarters. 'Aeru' was 'Tarzan' and 'Neviril' her 'Jane'. Now just wait for the rock to clock you upside you head. :lol: :lol: But again I found their relation to be interesting as well as moving. Along with everyone else.
Great show! Please support it!

I just watched episode 8 of Emily of New Moon (Kaze no Shoujo Emily). It was wonderful, and brought tears to my eyes, as several episodes of this woefully underappreciated show have. Not fansubbed yet. Sound familiar?
The reason I'm posting here is that when I looked at the end credits, I saw that the episode was storyboarded by Nishimura Junji, the director of Simoun. Checking ja.Wikipedia, I see that he also storyboarded episodes of Shounen Onmyouji, Yami to Boushi to Hon no Tabibito, and Full Moon wo Sagashite. In addition, Toyoguchi Megumi (Alti) had a role in this episode of Emily.
Emily of New Moon is based on a novel (novels?) by Lucy Maud Montgomery, the author of Anne of Green Gables, and tells a story quite similar to that: old-fashioned, but emotional and strong.

How to address PCI compliance in the cloud

our Web-facing application infrastructure to a public cloud? How can we address PCI compliance in the cloud?
Ask the Expert!
Got a vexing problem for Mike Chapple or any of our other experts? Ask your enterprise-specific questions today! (All questions are anonymous.)
The first thing you should do is carefully review the recently released Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS) 2.0 Cloud Computing Guidelines, available on the PCI Security Standards Council website. This document contains a wealth of information regarding the responsibilities of both merchants and service providers in a cloud environment, and does an excellent job helping you understand the types of controls that must be put in place.
Cloud computing solutions must comply with exactly the same standards as any other type of PCI DSS environment. In fact, most merchants already rely on some form of cloud service to assist them with the processing of credit card transactions. The difference when considering moving Web applications to the cloud is that you are often considering vendors that might not have deep PCI DSS experience.
If your cloud vendor will be directly storing, processing or transmitting credit card information (as opposed to merely handing customers off to a third-party payment gateway), you should verify that they appear on the Visa Global Registry of Service Providers and that their registry entry includes the service you are selecting. This assures you they have filed a Report on Compliance and are PCI-compliant. If you choose to use a cloud service that is not on the registry, understand that you will have to include that provider's infrastructure within the scope of your own PCI DSS assessment. I strongly suggest you don't put yourself in that situation.
You also must remember that simply choosing a compliant service provider does not make you PCI-compliant. Depending upon the type of service you purchase from that provider, you must take steps to ensure that the way you use those services is also compliant. For example, if you simply purchase Infrastructure as a Service computing cycles from a provider, you must still configure the Web server and develop Web applications in compliance with the PCI DSS and PA-DSS guidelines.

I started this on saturday and now it monday and still not complete, wAll components were removed ok and i managed to get a piston screw in device but then i think i need a 5 sided socket spanner to release a bolt than prevents the piston from turning in. Where the **** do i get a 5 sided socket spanner for a Bosch disc brake.

I second what the happy one says. All the Citroens I've had just use a bit of square bar to screw the piston back in. If you think about it, using a bolt to prevent the piston moving is as silly as a big silly thing where brakes are concerned. Are you turning it the right way? I'm not taking the piss, you can get things back to front working at odd angles.

Bollywood comedians tickle M-TownPooja Kulkarni | TNN | Oct 23, 2012, 12.00 AM IST
After actors now it's the turn of B-Wood comedians to do Marathi films
The comic brigade of Bollywood is now eyeing M-Town. While Sunil Pal triggered the trend by acting in Vijay Patkar's Chashme Bahaddar few years back, Navin followed it up with his whacky role in Mandar Shinde's No Problem. Ehsaan did Kumar Sohoni's socio-thriller Guilty. And now fans of Sunil will see him for the second time in a prominent role in debutant director Omkar Mane's comedy film in the making Sasucha Swayamvar.
"Sasucha Swayamvar is my second Marathi film and the experience has been enriching," says Sunil adding, "Though I cannot speak Marathi fluently, I am familiar with the language as I was born and raised in Vidarbha. At times when I had difficulty grasping particular terms, the entire cast along with the director would translate the meaning in Hindi aur baat ban jati."
For Ehsaan mouthing the language was quite an effort. "My role as a paanwallah in Guilty which revolves around college students was very challenging. Along with saying the dialogues, I was also expected to hum some funny one-liners like Kaat chuna paan lavala. All the while I would end up singing in broken Marathi and mix Hindi words by mistake."
So what are the reasons for filmamkers to rope in comedians from B-Town? "The concept of stand-up comedy got active some years ago and with the surge of so many reality shows on television, stand-up comedians have earned a good standing in the industry today. The pattern of comedy in films has also changed with the changing times and so many directors want to cast these people in their films," says Mandar. Omkar agrees, "Sunil plays Bajirao Potdukhe in my film and his role is quite important. Coming from Bollywood, I feel these people are exposed to a larger canvas. They can understand the need of the character better and deliver quality work. At times they take a particular scene to a different level altogether."
But then why not rope in artists back home we ask? Omkar says, "My experience with Marathi comedians as a newcomer hasn't been good. I did approach a few of them but they had very high expectations about the footage they receive which would have forced me to alter my storyline. So contrary to what we might imagine, I feel B-Town comedians are more grounded. Even if they charge more than their counterparts one is assured of the value they would add to your film. In fact, I am thinking of approaching Raju Shrivastava the next time."
Actor-director Makrand Anaspure who is known for his comic skills and has shared screen with Navin in No Problem feels that art has no boundaries. "I shared a personal rapport with Navin much before we shot together for No Problem and hence it was great working with him."
Unlike in Hindi, the Marathi industry has always had actor's multi-tasking and playing comedians in films. So will this B-Wood influx affect their screen space? "I have done comedy in a Bhojpuri film and it was a wonderful experience. But that does not mean that I am thinking of a career in Bhojpuri cinema. These things can happen once in a while."

I want 3.8 mudslingers on my summit and wanted to know if they'd fit alright and work well... please help
Link please... because the ones I found by searching "3.8 mudslingers" are over 7.5 inches tall... and the tallest that I have seen work is 3.5-4" tall.
Whatever it is I just typed... could be wrong.
Wow they would almost touch in the middle. I think thats just a little big for 1/16 lol
Rusty 2.5R,T-max 2.5 & 3.3,Summit VXL Nitro 4-tec
I put 2.8s on mine for laughs and it would drive upside down....
460, straightpipes, buried throttle, nuff said :D
Never mind about thise but what are other good tire and rim combis that r good for mud
Those will not fit... they are meant for the 10th scale summit.
Whatever it is I just typed... could be wrong.
Those tires are over 7 inches tall. There is no way they would work on your car. But if you still want mudslinger these are the biggest I would get.
With great brushless comes great responsibility.
Alright thanks I kind of want to get the big summit
PM for info.....
I bought a very slightly used one with 2 lipos and some other extras for 395. I have 7 acres of woods and a stream to keep me busy. Since I bought the 1/10 im probably going to sell my brushed 2wd stampede.
Not a bad deal at that price, you might want to upgrade the pede (eventually brushless) for the slight of roader! 7 acres of fun, you will be having some fun with your Summit!
PM for info.....
I want to upgrade to brushless soon...

Cigarette smoking is perhaps the most
devastating, preventable cause of disease and premature death.
In the United States Tobacco use is responsible for one in five deaths
annually(about 443,000 deaths per year, and an estimated 49,000 of these
tobacco-related deaths are the result of secondhand smoke exposure. Smoking is particularly dangerous for teens
because their bodies are still developing and changing and the
4,000 chemicals (including 200 known poisons) in cigarette smoke
can adversely affect this process.
Cigarettes are also highly
addictive, both mentally and physically, and can serve as a
major gateway to other forms of drug addiction. Adolescent
cigarette smokers are 100 times more likely to smoke marijuana
and are more likely to use other illicit drugs such as cocaine
and heroin in the future.
Although many people smoke
because they believe smoking calms their nerves, smoking
releases epinephrine, a hormone, that creates physiological
stress in the smoker, rather than relaxation. The addictive
quality of the drug makes the user feel he/she must smoke more
to calm down, when in effect, the smoking itself is causing the
The use of tobacco is
addictive. Most users develop tolerance for nicotine and need
greater amounts to produce a desired effect. Smokers become
physically and psychologically dependent and will suffer
withdrawal symptoms when use is stopped. Physical withdrawal
symptoms include: changes in body temperature, heart rate,
digestion, muscle tone, and appetite. Psychological symptoms
include: irritability, anxiety, sleep disturbances, nervousness,
headaches, fatigue, nausea, and cravings for tobacco that can
last days, weeks, months, years, or an entire lifetime.

Maximum Likelihood Estimation Using Parallel Computing: An Introduction to MPI
The computational difficulty of econometric problems has increased dramatically in recent years as econometricians examine more complicated models and utilize more sophisticated estimation techniques. Many problems in econometrics are "embarrassingly parallel" and can take advantage of parallel computing to reduce the wall clock time it takes to solve a problem. In this paper I demonstrate a method that can be used to solve a maximum likelihood problem using the MPI message passing library. The econometric problem is a simple multinomial logit model that does not require parallel computing but illustrates many of the problems one would confront when estimating more complicated models.

A group of Cubans sails toward the Florida Straits on a modified 1959 Buick Tuesday February 3, 2004. The pilots were the same two men who tried to sail a converter 1951 Chevy flatbed truck to the U.S. last year. Nine other Cubans, including wives and children, were intercepted by the U.S Coast Guard on Tuesday Feb. 3, 2004. (AP Photo/CBS4, HO)

Chili Relleno Squares Recipe
My family requests this dish regularly - it's easy to prepare and makes a nice hors d'oeuvre or complement to a Mexican or Spanish meal. A friend I worked with shared the recipe with me several years ago.
- 3 cups (12 ounces) shredded Monterey Jack cheese
- 1-1/2 cups (6 ounces) shredded cheddar cheese
- 2 cans (4 ounces each) chopped green chilies, drained
- 2 eggs
- 2 tablespoons milk
- 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
- 1. Layer cheeses and chilies in a greased 8-in. square baking dish, starting and ending with cheese. In a bowl, beat the eggs. Add the milk and flour; pour over cheese. Bake at 375° for 30 minutes or until set. Cut into small squares. Serve warm. Yield: 16 servings.
