Great Surprise
- Familiarity: I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions
- Fit: True to size
I surprised my girlfriend with a pair of these socks after she was complaining about cold, uncomfortable feet. She tried them out for the first time last week and loved them. Very comfortable, warm, protecting, and true to size. Great gift for any man looking to put a smile on his lady's face!

Watch: Geoffrey Rush brings Barbosa back in 'Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides'
Johnny Depp's Captain Jack Sparrow may get all of the hoopla, but the secret joy of the "Pirates of the Caribbean" franchise has always been Geoffrey Rush's equally devious pirate with an actual character arc, Barbosa.
First an adversary and then an ally for Sparrow against a greater evil, Barbosa is back once again for the fourth go around, "Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides."  This time he's got his own separate agenda against the film's villain, Blackbeard (played by Ian McShane). Bringing the character back was one of the smart things producer Jerry Bruckheimer and Walt Disney Studios did for the flick (discarding Orlando Bloom and Keira Knightly surprisingly was a wrong one). Rush has described Barbosa and Sparrow as a bickering couple both with love for the same ship, the Black Pearl. The few scenes where Depp and Rush get to verbally spar with each other are clearly the best moments of the film.
Rush sat down with HitFix last week to talk about Barbosa's evolution, the audience's reaction to his character and his decision to go digital for Barbosa's new wooden leg (and yes, there's a story behind that).
You can watch the interview with Rush embedded in this post.
"Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides" opens everywhere on Friday.

Ah, Summer! Our next meeting is Sept. 9th
What to do this summer Join the BAA!
We get a lot of calls asking for help with telescopes… What is the best scope to buy? How do I use the scope I got for Christmas? What eyepieces should I use to see saturn? We always welcome questions. Our #1 favorite question is "What is the best thing to purchase for a family hooked on astronomy?" because the answer is so easy. A membership in the BAA is the best purchase you can make. For $30 you get a rural observatory, a wealth of resources and a community of great people from all walks of life who enjoy nothing more than talking telescopes and helping other members feel at home with their equipment and the wonders of the night sky. It's as easy as a mouse click…
See it Through at BMoS Gets a Boost
This news just in from the Buffalo Museum of Science…. the See It Through campaign to restore the rooftop Observatory and the fourth floor astronomy studio has received a half million dollar check from Erie County. County Executive Mark Poloncarz was on hand to announce the support and to share his personal excitement to help make astronomy experience a reality again for all of Western New York in 2017. Keep an eye on this space for the latest developments.
Beaver Meadow Observatory
Our 2016 "Public Observing Night" Season at Beaver Meadow Observatory is in full swing. We look forward to hosting WNY stargazers of all ages again at the observatory on the 1st Saturday of the month, April through October. All winter club members have continued to enjoy using the equipment and enjoy the dark skies at our North Java site and do so all year round. Contact our observatory Directors to learn how you can join them.Observatory Info

As I write I am comforted by the snow that has accumulated on the boughs of my Nordmann fir and Serbian spruce. It is beautiful, yes, but more important the snow serves as an insulator against desiccating winds and frigid temperatures.
We must not forget that evergreens, particularly broadleaf evergreens like rhododendrons and American hollies, lose a great deal of moisture through their leaves in the winter.
Winter desiccation is not unusual, but the effects are magnified coming out of a season of drought.

A few weeks ago, I did something I never do — I picked up a hitchhiker.
She wasn't typical, if there is such a thing. She was older, maybe in her 70s.
While on my way to the market, she flagged me down as I approached the end of my street and asked if I would take her as far as I was going.
She said she had prayed for God to send someone, and that I was his answer, his "grace."

NFL, Players Will Meet Through Weekend to Reach Labor Agreement
The National Football League and its players said they will meet through the weekend as they make progress toward a new contract to end a four-month-old lockout.
A joint statement issued after talks in New York City yesterday said contract negotiations this week "have been constructive and progress has been made on a wide range of issues."
The sides also said legal and financial teams would work through the weekend, and that NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell and players association Executive Director DeMaurice Smith would meet or talk beginning today.
"We continue to have a lot of work to do," Smith told reporters outside the law offices where the negotiations took place. "I know everybody is frustrated and they want a definitive answer. I hate to disappoint everyone but you're not going to get one right now. We're going to continue to work and I think that's a positive sign."
No details of the negotiations were released. The two sides have been ordered by federal Magistrate Judge Arthur Boylan not to publically discuss specifics. The two sides are to meet with Boylan in Minnesota on July 19, three days before the first preseason training camps are set to open.
Two days ago negotiators were close to an agreement on a pay scale for rookie players, clearing a major obstacle toward reaching a new labor agreement in the U.S.'s most-popular sport, three people familiar with the talks said.
$9.3 Billion
Rookie compensation was the center of talks this week after the sides neared a deal on how to divide a projected $9.3 billion in revenue that would give just less than half to players, according to the people, who were granted anonymity because the talks are confidential.
The 2011 salary cap would be about $123 million per team, the NFL Network reported, about $5 million less than the 2009 limit. The 2010 season didn't have a ceiling on team payrolls.
The sides have met in New York the last two weeks. Topics including safety, health care and workers compensation were being discussed, the people said.
Boylan set next week's meeting before starting his vacation. NFL owners are scheduled to meet in a special session in Atlanta two days later, and could use that time to vote on a new collective bargaining package. Approval from 24 of 32 clubs is needed for ratification.
March Lockout
NFL owners locked out players in March. The players sued, behind Super Bowl-winning quarterbacks Tom Brady, Peyton Manning and Drew Brees, claiming antitrust violations and wage-fixing. A federal appeals court upheld the lockout last week, saying a lower court erred in blocking it.
The lockout came about five weeks after the Green Bay Packers' Super Bowl victory over the Pittsburgh Steelers attracted the largest U.S. television audience in history, capping a season watched by a record 207.7 million people, according to Neilsen Co. data.
Jeff Pash, the NFL's chief negotiator, said after a league meeting outside Chicago last month that reopening for business would require making sure legal documents are fully drafted and approved, then ratified by both sides. Owners and players also will have to seek approval from "various courts" to deal with litigation.
Pash said he didn't know how long that may take. Once the sides reach a handshake agreement, owners and players will want to "move as quickly as we could," he said.
Training camps for the St. Louis Rams and Chicago Bears are scheduled to open July 22, with the teams slated to play the first preseason game on Aug. 7 in Canton, Ohio.

10/11 Ride Highlife vs 10/11 Rossi Experience?
Hey, looking for some help on choosing a board.
Looking at the 10/11 Ride Highlife 168W vs the 10/11 Rossi Experience 168 'MW'
Currently running an old '05 169 K2 Ambush. I love the board but it's just getting a lil' worn down and too bendy on me.
I think stats are standard here at this point so let's go with 6'5", 265 and size 13's.
Spend no time in the park (I'm not aerodynamic). Mainly looking at tree lines, powder and some lips. Groomers on less than awesome days.
Definitely advanced rider.
Discuss, QED, etc.
Any thoughts?
Kinda torn between the two... maybe leaning towards the Rossi?

Boxing coach shot to death
3 people arrested after fatal shooting in north side robbery
A well known Waukesha boxing instructor was shot and killed while filling his SUV with gasoline Wednesday afternoon during a robbery at a Citgo station on Milwaukee's north side, friends of the victim and Milwaukee police said.
Scott Huggins, 44, coached boxing for the past three years at Medina's Gym on Waukesha's south side.
Friends said Huggins stopped at the Sherman Citgo station at 4302 W. Capitol Drive and was approached by three males who demanded money before he was shot twice.
Milwaukee police said three people were under arrest Wednesday night, and said robbery was the apparent motive of the shooting, which was reported at about 3 p.m.
Police would not release the names and ages of those arrested and did not give any information about where and how they were apprehended.
Huggins worked as an electrician and had been involved in boxing for many years, friends said.
About a half-dozen fighters, many who Huggins had coached, comforted each other at Medina's Gym late Wednesday after hearing news of the death.
The fighters, many with reddened eyes, were too stunned to comment, having lost a friend and mentor. No one was wearing boxing gloves.
Huggins' son, who is in his 20s, also trained at the gym, they said.
Many questioned the senselessness of the shooting and wondered how someone who gave so much to the community could lose his life over a few dollars at a gas station.
Oscar Medina, who recently moved his gym to the site, said the Huggins family had asked him not to immediately comment about his longtime friend.
Taught troubled youths
Medina is known for taking troubled youths and teaching them respect through the sport of boxing. Huggins was usually at Medina's side during training and the cornerman in many amateur fights.
Huggins' neighbor Mark Tomchek expressed outrage at the news of his friend's death.
"The man gave so much to the youth of this community," Tomchek said.
"I don't understand how someone could take his life."
Tomchek called Huggins an easygoing guy and a great neighbor who will be missed.
"He was the kind of guy who was always there to help," Tomchek said.
Shocked by the news
Gary Pliner, vice president of Wisconsin's Amateur Boxing Association, said he was shocked to learn of Huggins' death.
"He was very good with kids in the community, and at all the boxing shows he was at he was a very polite gentleman," Pliner said.
Pliner instructed Huggins in several coach certification classes and said he was as big as he was friendly, standing about 6 feet tall and 200-plus pounds.
"Scott was certainly big enough to defend himself, but not against a gun," Pliner said. "We are certainly going to miss him. It's a real shame."
A man who answered the telephone at a number listed to Huggins on Wednesday night said the family had no comment.
Bob Purvis of the Journal Sentinel staff contributed to this report.

Amir Khan: Angel Garcia is Not Keen on a Rematch
By Luke Furman
Former champion Amir Khan (27-3, 19KOs) wants to reclaim his WBC/WBA junior welterweight titles and he also wants revenge. In July, he was dropped three times and stopped in the fourth by Danny Garcia (25-0, 16KOs).
Khan, now trained by Virgil Hunter, returned two weeks ago and stopped Carlos Molina in ten rounds. He wants to take a fight in April and then wants the rematch with Garcia. He asked their mutual promoter to make the fight, but says the champion's controversial father/trainer is not in favor of the rematch.
"I've left it to Golden Boy Promotions to make that fight for me. I've put the fight to Danny Garcia now and he's not given me an answer. His father is not really keen on it but its the fight that I want," Khan told Sky Sports.
Luke Furman covers boxing for bokser.org.

Brief SummaryRead full entry
SivatheriumSivatherium('Shiva's beast)' is an extinct giraffid that ranged on plains throughout Africa to the Indian Subcontinent from the Late Pliocene-Modern (5 million-10,000 years ago). It was thought to resemble a moose, but was more similar to a large, more heavily built okapi with a squat build. It was about 3.9m (13 ft) long, 2.2 m (7 ft 4 in) tall at the shoulder, 3 m (10 ft) in total height and weighing up to 500 kg (1,000-2,000 lb).[1] It had a wide, antler-like pair of ossicones on its head and a second pair of giraffe-like ossicones above its eyes. Its very powerful shoulders supported the neck muscles required to lift the heavy skull.[2]
It ate grass. It was hunted to extinction by early humans. The African species, S. maurusium, was placed within the genus "Libytherium." It may have become extinct 8,000 years ago, as depictions that greatly resemble it occur in ancient rock paintings on rocks in the Sahara Desert.

Welcome! We are the Parallel Programming Laboratory.
Our goal is to develop technology that improves performance of parallel applications while also improving programmer productivity. We aim to reach a point where, with our freely distributed software base, complex irregular and dynamic applications can (a) be developed quickly and (b) perform scalably on machines with thousands of processors.
Processor virtualization is one of our core techniques: the programmer divides the computation into a large number of entities, which are mapped to the available processors by an intelligent runtime system. This separation of concerns between programmers and the system is key to attaining both our goals together.
Mitigating Process Variation Through Dynamic Load Balancing
The design and manufacture of present-day CPUs causes inherent variation in supercomputer architectures such as variation in power and temperature of the chips. The variation also manifests itself as frequency differences among processors under Turbo Boost dynamic overclocking. This variation can lead to unpredictable and suboptimal performance in tightly coupled HPC applications. In this study, we use compute-intensive kernels and applications to analyze the variation among processors in four top supercomputers: Edison, Cab, Stampede, and Blue Waters.

Lost Planet 3
I was particularly happy with the speedcheat since the rig is so extremely slow, but now it seems my games is broken due to it's use.
I'll try to avoid spoilers - Here's what happened to me: After retrieving the rig in the Killing Fields the objective changes to "wait for instructions" and after some time a transmission explaining the next objective starts. the things is that the objective doesn't change with the start of the transmission, but seems to wait for it to end. Now due to the speed cheat i was able to move so fast , that i could enter the next area before the transmission was completely finished, and now i'm stuck at the "wait for instruction" objective - and both autosaves are already contain this - thanks to capcom/spark for not letting me save manually
So yeah, the essence of this post is:
Don't leave an area while a tranmission is playing IF you use the speed cheat. also wait a few seconds til after the tranmission ended.
PS: does anyone have a savegame around the time when first entering the killing fields? doesn't need to be exactly there, i can watch let's plays to fill the gap.

James Joyce's only play (published in 1918 by Grant Richards) is often slated as being flawed, a drawing room drama not on a par with the innovative style of his other writings, poor in comparison with the (post-)modern developments in twentieth-century drama from Beckett to Pinter, and showing all too deliberately the influence of Henrik Ibsen. When considered on its own merits, however, the play is not without interest or dramatic force. It has a psychological intensity—and tension—which Joyce called "collective practical realism" and which has a high symbolical meaning. Thematically, Exiles is integral to Joyce's work. It features all of his themes—passion, betrayal, spiritual and artistic freedom, idealism …

Stonington — Police have identified the man who died of a self-inflicted gunshot wound Saturday night following an armed standoff with them on White Rock Road as Paul Menard, 52, of 16 Palmer St. in Pawcatuck.
Police responded to what appeared to be a one-car accident on White Rock Road at 7:20 p.m., according to police Capt. Jerry Desmond. A witness had reported that a man involved in the accident had discharged his weapon.
During the standoff, about 40 police officers from the Stonington and Westerly as well as state police surrounded Menard, who remained near his pickup truck off the side of the road. Police could be heard yelling at him to drop his handgun.
Menard did not comply, Desmond said. He appeared intoxicated and got in and out of his truck several times during the attempted negotiations, Desmond said.
He said that Menard alternated between pointing his gun at his own head and the ground but he never directly pointed the gun at police. At 8:50 p.m., Menard shot himself while in his truck. He was pronounced dead at The Westerly Hospital.
Desmond said police are investigating Menard's death but so far have not come up with any reason for why he shot himself. He said Menard did not say anything to officers about why he wanted to commit suicide. Desmond said police will be talking to Menard's friends and relatives to reconstruct the hours before his death.
The standoff occurred near the La Quinta Inn & Suites at the corner of Route 2 and White Rock Road. The hotel did not allow anyone to enter or exit the property during the incident, and guests on the north side of the hotel, facing White Rock Road, were moved to south side of the hotel.
Menard lived in a white two-story home next to railroad track and across from the former Whistle Stop cafe. He purchased the home in 2005.
Three of Menard's neighbors said this afternoon that he liked to ride his bicycle and skateboard and recently bought a bright yellow Thing which was parked in ths driveway this afternoon. They said except for a male friend that used to come by regularly, few other people came to the house.
"He was a really friendly guy but he seemed to keep to himself," said one of the neighbors, Jay Rondeau.
He said he saw Menard get into his car at 5 p.m. Saturday afternoon but nothing seemed unusual. He said he realized something was wrong when police went into Menard's home Saturday night.
The three men said they did not know Menard owned a gun. Desmond said police are investigating whether Menard owned a gun and had a permit for it.

Integrated Benefits Institute Presents PG&E with 2014 IBI Health and Business Performance Award
SAN FRANCISCO - March 4, 2014 - PRLog -- The Integrated Benefits Institute today awarded the 2014 IBI Health and Business Performance Award to Pacific Gas and Electric Company (PG&E). The Integrated Benefits Institute (IBI) is the leading workforce health and productivity research and measurement organization.
The Award, sponsored by AbbVie, honors an employer that has demonstrated outstanding work in the field of health, productivity and business performance. AbbVie is a global, research-based biopharmaceutical company. The Award was presented to Maria Henderson, Senior Director, Workforce Health, PG&E, by IBI President Dr. Thomas Parry during the 2014 IBI Annual Forum in San Francisco, March 3-5, 2014. The Forum was attended by 400 leaders from the business and benefit program supplier communities.
"The goal of our annual conference—now in its 19th year—is to provide employers research and case studies that establish best practices to improve workforce health, productivity and absence management. We congratulate Pacific Gas and Electric Company on its innovative programs and new health account plan design that have enhanced employee health, productivity and resiliency,"
Health: PG&E took a collaborative approach with union leadership to design a single health plan for all active employees that provides significant financial incentives for preventive care and wellness. The participation rates in the annual biometric health screenings are approaching 90% with more than 4,500 individuals opting in to health coaching or tobacco cessation. The early detection of serious health risks coupled with a free primary care/preventive services package in the plan made some promising utilization impacts; decreasing inpatient days 11%, ER visits 8% and specialty office visits 5%. The five years prior to the new plan design, PG&E's medical cost per employee trends averaged a 9% increase year-over year. In 2013, cost per employee dropped 6%, with no increased premium costs to the employees and minimal cost shifting at the point of service.
Resiliency: PG&E promoted a hybrid EAP approach, which offered on-site counselors, as well as a community network and telephonic access. The on-site counselors alone achieved a utilization rate of 8.5%; about twice the national average. The company also supports a Peer Volunteer Program for substance abuse recovery in collaboration with union leadership.
"We are pleased to be named the recipient of the 2014 IBI Health and Business Performance Award, and to share the results of our health and wellness programs to the broader community," said Henderson. "These programs coupled with our strong union partnership have helped us improve the health and resiliency of our workforce. A healthier workforce is more productive and lowers health care costs for our employees, the company and, most importantly, our customers."
In 2011, PG&E also launched an Industrial Athlete Program focused on the highest risk and most physically demanding jobs—lineman;

Technical Details
This malware was first spammed to various e-mails addresses, as zip archive file named my_Notebook.doc. Once a user opens the document, it drops and runs a binary executable. Later distributions runs may use varying names for the infected document.
The trojan-dropper is written in Visual Basic for Applications (VBA).
When the infected Word document is opened, the macro code inside of it will be executed. It will decode a binary file from its code and drop it as 666inse_1.exe to the root of the C: drive. The macro will then execute the dropped 666inse_1.exe file and end.
The binary executable is a trojan-downloader called Small.DCU.
In Office 2003 or later, the macro will only execute if macros have been enabled from Word's security settings.Otherwise, the trojan uses a vulnerability in MS Word 97, 2000 and XP; in this case, the macro will be able to execute even though macros are supposed to be disabled.

Caytinator (113) Tucson, Arizona | May 3, 2013
The best thing this place has going for it is its location, its smack-dab in the middle of campus. Service is good, pleasant. Selection sucks, theres like 6 of their beers on tap. Value is OK, $8.50ish for entrees and $3.50 pints. Ill go back.
radarsock (60) Massachusetts | June 28, 2012| Updated December 25, 2012
From what I had, I enjoyed their oatmeal stout the best out of all of their beers I tried. Their year-rounders are delightful for the money paid. I cant imagine anyone above the age of twelve actually missing the building -- its quite large and very distinct. The service was so-so, a brunette girl on food service forgot my drink three different times and I was a little more than annoyingly unimpressed with the entrees. The space is big enough, but there always seemed to be televisions playing the most obnoxious sporting events and the walls are alive with what I refer to as "clusterfuck art", which is basically finding anything you can on the street and nailing to the wall and hope someone appreciates it.
NachlamSie (729) Denver, Colorado | March 10, 2012
This is a no frills, typical brewpub located so near campus that it definitely has a frat-bar vibe looming in the air. I just had an IPA which was fair. There wasnt anything standout to really bring me back.
fata2683 (131) Tucson, Arizona | June 17, 2011
serves all of the Barrio beers right on University so its good for people watching. Food is average pub grub, beers are decent.
Sledutah (558) Utah | May 22, 2011
Located at the University, looks nice from the outside. Inside has plenty of seating for the restaurant. The bar area was fairly small, but did have outside seating. Most of the beer is the same as Barrio, so not worth a special stop. I didnt try the food. The place was pretty empty for a Thursday afternoon (3pm).
troyc (147) Illinois | March 13, 2011
A neat looking place near campus. Had the large sampler with 11 of their tap beers, which was nice. Most of the brews were pretty pedestrian. The place wasnt very busy in the middle of the afternoon, but that was nice. Enjoyed the patio area. Great service. Didnt try the food. Probably a cool hang out in the evening.
thedanimal (10) Flagstaff, Arizona | October 17, 2010
I enjoyed a couple of Porters and had A great hamburger. The bartender was very friendly. I was there in the afternoon, but it looks like a great college hangout.
rmussman (16) California | January 12, 2010
Their beers are nice, prices are a bit over the top as they aim for the frat and sorority parties where money doesnt matter as much. I think the beers are pretty well made with 6 or 7 options all the time. Service is decent if its not too busy.
ragesaq (10) Arizona | November 27, 2008
Beers are alright, but produced as to be mass appeal and not real 'craft' beer. Food is decent, service is spotty. Not a bad place, but there are better places you can go for sure.
nbutler11 (356) Cambridge, England | September 2, 2008
This place certainly lives up to its gentle description. Very tame atmosphere with an underwhelming array of beers on tap. The real downside here is the food, but at least the service is prompt and helpful.

text: Posted March 18, 2011 Hi there! I'm taking Psychology SL and I'm having some trouble figuring out how to answer an SAQ. We have done some practice ones in class, but they have all been unsuccessful (mine and also other students'). Although there is an explanation of how to answer one in the book, the explanation of our teacher often contradicts the one that is printed. I am confused, and nervous about my exams in May. Could someone please give me a basic outline of how to answer an SAQ? What needs to be there, how specific it needs to be? Also, is there a recommended word count? I would be glad if you could help me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
