I am a PhD student in the Computer Architecture Group supervised by Dr Robert Mullins. I am working on automatic parallelisation of irregular programs using a combination of compile-time analysis and speculation execution. Compile-time analysis can determine a good deal of information about how a program can be parallelised. However, there is a large gap between what the compiler can determine with certainty and what a runtime profiler can determine with near-certainty. Speculation is the tool to bridge this gap, enabling us to run code which we are nearly certain is parallelisable without endangering program correctness. I am investigating the tradeoff between conservative static transformation and optimistic speculation execution and working out how to combine these techniques in a real practical system. See my papers below for more details.
This work is part of the HELIX project, a collaboration between researchers in Cambridge and in Harvard University.
Previously I did the MPhil in Advanced Computer Science here at the Computer Laboratory. My thesis, supervised by Dr David Greaves, was on extending the capabilities of Kiwi, a high level synthesis compiler which compiles C# programs to Verilog. I implemented a compiler pass which detected data reuse in regular programs and generated on-chip registers to store this data and reduce the number of accesses to the off chip memory. For regular programs this is more efficient than a general purpose cache since there is no need for tag lookup. I won the Google Best Project Report Prize from the Computer Laboratory for this work.
Before that I did my Bachelor's degree in Electronic and Computer Engineering at Trinity College Dublin. For my final year project I implemented (a subset of) the Java Virtual Machine in Verilog (a Java processor). I prototyped the design on an FPGA.

Original post made by Paul Losch, a resident of Palo Alto, on Sep 5, 2010
Her summer back in Palo Alto included some down time, working as a Camp Galileo Counselor at Walter Hays, and socializing with friends she grew up with. By all accounts, she had a pleasant summer.
She and I had some enjoyable times at events downtown and at dining establishments, but I mainly gave her a great deal of space.
It is somewhat confusing to be a parent of a college age student who is an "adult" legally, but of course is still your child, living under your roof, for a few summer months.

First of all there are the summers when they come home (and the occasional week at winter and spring break). Then they graduate and can't find a job so they come home to find minimum wage jobs!!!
Adult children in your home, can be fun when it is choice, but it can be much harder when it is through necessity.

The 25 year old adult accross the street from me is now living with his parents, again. He had a good job, but his firm decided to get out of California and move back east. They invited him to come. He refused to leave Palo Alto, so he quit.
His parents, IMO, should have told him that he is no longer welcome at home. They didn't, so now they are stuck with a spoiled brat, who is constantly complaining.
Palo Alto kids are well educated, but they lack backbone. Kinda like their parents, eh?

I was at the family weekend for my daughter's freshman year, and the foliage was spectacular. Early October.
There are certain experiences that defy description. Being in the elements that time of year in New England is an example. All sensations and senses are turned on.
Then you have to rake leaves.

To Kevin and others,
I am a bit tired of the generalizations about Palo Alto kids in this forum. So I am going to talk a bit about my daughter here.
She graduated from Paly in 2005.
While at Paly, she refused to take the typical path of high school students here. Instead of the usual sports, music or clubs, she started working part time early on, by choice, in part because she wanted the money. And then, she never looked back.
She did not achieve stellar grades in school, although she got better grades on the few AP classes she took than on her regular classes. Go figure. So, she ended up going to a "second tier" UC campus, that Palo Alto parents often love to despise. There, she continued working part-time outside of school, by choice once again, gradually getting better jobs.
She graduated from college in 2009, with a very good full-time job offer in her pocket.
She has now been working a year (not in Palo Alto) with mostly people from universities such as UCLA and equivalent. And guess what? At the first annual evaluation, she surpassed them all, and was ranked number one of the whole group, for her technical skills, and, as importantly, for her people skills and her work ethic.
She is doing very well, and there is no talk of her moving back in with Mom and Dad.
So please, think twice before making blanket generalizations about Palo Alto kids. Thank you.

Parent too,
That's a good, but unusual, story from Palo Alto. Good for your daughter, and for you. I think you are making my case for me.
However, please don't assume that it is the typical story. Palo Alto kids are (yes, generally) raised without backbones. They are are eager and educated, but they are limp in the real world. It is not their fault, as a newborn, but they gladly accept their condition, and this makes them fully responsible for it. They would be much better off signing up with the military for a couple of years, before they enter college (not of their original choice). They are slowly dying in their own soup by not entering the actual conditions of the world. They will erode inside their parents' homes, miserable and whining.

My son Nathan is a 2005 graduate of PALY, so he may know your daughter, who graduated the same year.
He wants to be a school teacher, and elected to spend a year teaching English in Korea. His stint ends in October, and he will get his teaching credential when he gets back to the States.
He does not like the suburban town in Korea where he resides, and he has had mixed experiences with the kids he has taught. I think this is great! We live in a very rarefied town, and I am glad that both my kids are spending some of their formative years elsewhere.

It seems to be common for PA kids to sign up for an English teaching job abroad. There are programs that set these things up. It is a step up from glass blowing, but it is really a delay in the growing-up process. It is good that your son is out of Palo Alto, and mixing it up a bit with the locals in SK, but if he comes back to PA, and sticks around, don't be surprised if he wants to live with you or his mom.

I'll ask my daughter if she knows your son, and I'll let you know!
I am glad both of your children have been having such enriching experiences. I agree that it is a good idea for Palo Alto kids to go and experience other places, discover that our town is only a small dot on the map, and that there is something else in the world than the privileged life most people live in this town.
I wish both your children well in their respective futures. I still have a child in the Palo Alto school system and wish him well too.
I think that children such as Paul's children and my children are much more common than it seems in Palo Alto. The problem is that they are not the ones that we hear about. We tend to hear only about the "super successful" ones that go to Ivy League universities or about the ones that get lost somewhere along the way, and get in trouble. I believe there is a big "silent majority" of kids from Palo Alto that we don't hear much about. Maybe it should be time that we hear more about such kids and that we put things back in perspective.

A step up from glass blowing? If you and I were face to face, it would not be a polite conversation.
The cohort in college or recently graduated face a very challenging environment. There are kids like you described who appear to lack an understanding of personal responsibilty, and there are others who understand they need to make their own way, and are in an environment that is not a walk in the park.

The Palo Alto kids, with their parents' full support, are filling up in a bucket of false hope, unless they are trust fund babies. In either case, the parents are the main culprits.
Palo Alto kids, in general, are very pampered, and they don't know it. One of my daughtet's boyfriends once told me that he would not accept any career that was not part of his dream. My daughter left him, and a couple more, until she settled on another entitled reprobate. It was no problem for me to tell her, "No, you are not getting a loan to travel to Europe". In fact, I told her that she was on her own, once she turned 18. I kept my word. She grew up fast, and married a solid guy with a hard work ethic, had three kids, and is now an essential part of his business.
I have two sons, and they had the same limits. One of them fell down for a while, but eventually got on his feet and is earning a lot of money in this current economy (school of hard knocks, including a three year stint in the Army). My other son was a straight arrow, no problems, and he has done well by following the approved path. However, in all honesty, he is the weakest of the three, because if loses his job he will be a piece of emotional putty (again, his problem, not mine).
Palo Alto parents worry too much about their kids. They need to kick them out of the nest.

Hi Gary,
I asked my daughter about Nathan, and she said that she does know who he is but has not talked to him since high school. Her name is Emily. We think it's wonderful to put in a year overseas teaching English. It must give anyone who does it a totally new perspective on life and the world.
I think Kevin is overly harsh. Kids need more parental help now than they did 30 years ago or more. For instance, going to college is now so expensive that we did not want our daughter burdened with its cost and we paid for it.

i gotta say, theres so many positives to being your neighbours but some serious negatives aswell..
i've heard Pakistan has nukes (not suggesting it'll come to this) but do they have the means to land them on your doorstep?
eff Pakistan. They know that they are one step away from being the newest province of India if we weren't backing them. There's a reason they weren't told about the raid..... Kind of like in Seinfeld you never tell Elaine a secret.

It was defintinly it big reason why it took so long to find him. We put so many resources in trying to find him near the border because the pakistanis swore he'd never make it deep in pakistan.

Bludd- Is the Story of a long lost woman. They say she can see you even when you close out of the tab or page. Her spirit is supposively that of a demonic state , that she came staright from the pits of Hell. Not much is said about Her Origin but like the Slenderman if you open the app or try to communicate , She will try to get out . To stop this happening you need to the The lords prayer with salt around you. If she finds you she will kill you because she misses her long lost daughter. If your hearing sounds of mama or baby cries you need to get a baptizing. Be beware of what she is capable of and be safe . Bludd is truly a horible creature.

Historic YMCA in Butte could turn into dorm rooms
BUTTE, Mont. - The future of the old historic YMCA building in Butte is up in the air.
City officials met with the public Thursday to discuss their plans for the building and to hear what the public had to say.
Residents packed the meeting to hear the results of a study on what it might cost to salvage the building, and give it a new purpose as dorms for Montana Tech students.
"Our goal was to find out if it was economically and physically feasible to transform this building into student housing," said Karen Byrnes, director of the Community Development Department.
It could cost big bucks to bring the building up to date.
"The feasibility study shows that we can create 73 beds for a cost of about 5.73 million," added Byrnes.
But that amount doesn't take parking into consideration, or its location which is more than a mile from Tech's campus.
NBC Montana spoke with a few students to see whether or not they would be willing to live that far off campus.
"Butte winters can get pretty brutal here so a mile is a long ways to walk," said Brock Calvi, a sophomore at Montana Tech.
"It gets pretty cold in Butte and icy and I wouldn't want to walk that far," added Ben Cook, also a sophomore at Montana Tech.
The architect behind the project says it's still in the early stages and there is still a lot to sort out.

Schools across the country are aiming for a waste-free lunch period. Still using brown paper lunch sacks? Bag them, they say. Schools are asking parents and students to choose reusable cloth sacks instead of bags that get thrown in the trash. You won't find plastic baggies or bottles on many school lists either. To meet eco-friendly lunch requirements, sandwiches and snacks need to be packed in plastic containers and water must be in a reusable aluminum bottle.
The schools' view: more students packing eco-friendly lunch containers means less waste created at lunchtime. That's good for the planet. A green lunch policy also benefits schools since cafeterias will require less clean up and there will be less cost for hauling garbage away.
But there are more issues to consider say some parents. They say that reusable containers are expensive and washing the containers also uses precious resources such as water and fuel. School officials argue that the containers don't need to be replaced, so in the long run, the cost should be less than buying boxes of baggies and paper lunch bags. That is, if students don't lose or misplace their containers. Parents claim kids are bound to lose the containers.
Despite the inconveniences, it seems many families are trying to go green. Sales of eco-friendly lunch products are on the rise. Sales of plastic and paper bags, once school lunch must-haves, are dropping.
What do you think? Is the added time and money involved in going green at lunchtime worth it? Should schools require kids to bring eco-friendly lunches? Write a 200-word response. Send it to firstname.lastname@example.com. Your response may be published in a future issue of TIME For Kids. Please include contact information for your parent or teacher if you want your response to be published.
Then, be sure to vote for your opinion!

PMP and CAPM Exam Prep Course Outline
Our CAPM and PMP exam prep course is for both experienced project managers seeking Project Management Professional (PMP) certification and new or junior project managers seeking Certified Associate in Project Management (CAPM) certification.
Consistent with PMI's focus on process groups, our PMP exam prep course outline follows a typical project workflow, rather than chapter-by-chapter recitation, so it is much easier to grasp and relate to real-world project execution. Bottom line is that we use the A Guide to the Project Management Body of Knowledge (PMBOK® Guide), 5th edition, as a reference book, not as a logical sequence of carrying out project management.
We begin our class with direct help with PMI's PMP credential application, study recommendations, test taking techniques, and then PMI's Code of Ethics and Professional Responsibility. The first three sections and glossary of the PMBOK® Guide are then covered as presented. From there, we shift our focus to pre-Project activities, then Initiating, Planning, Executing and Monitoring and Controlling, and, lastly, Closing.
Our high-level course outline is:
- Introduction
- Certification
- Approach
- Ethics and Professional Conduct
- Fundamental Concepts and Project Management Framework
- Pre-Project
- Initiating
- Planning
- Executing and Monitoring & Controlling
- Closing
- Post-Project
- Review
Click to access detailed course outline.
When our instructor gets to the end of the course, students will know the content covered in the test and be prepared to test that knowledge, first in Project Weaver's two Internet-based PMP practice exam test Web sites, then directly with PMI to successfully pass and secure their PMP or CAPM credentials.
Project Weaver's support does not end when the class finishes. We offer periodic live online PMP study opportunities each week, plus free invites to re-attend any session or class as they finish preparing for the certification exam. One-on-one assistance is also given when necessary. As our guarantee says, we give you the best instruction possible and whatever additional study opportunities that you need.

Re: KA-7 is useless. Please reduce it's recoil![ Edited ]
I thought the idea of the patch was to improve aimed accuracy and make the hipfire thing less of an occurance.
Job done, we don't need to improve the KAL-7. If I was asking for anything it would be another KAL nerf as I still think it's a little too effective.
Sure I get why people use it, I used it a lot too. It's a cheap and easy way to play the game and you get a few laughs out of it. I'm sure the person getting killed by it doesn't receive any laughs though.
We can't improve the KAL-7 It has properties which are anti aiming, anti aiming in a shooter is something I cannot encourage.

So basically, people who had KAL loadouts should just...what's the word..."adapt"?
A playstyle they have been using for the past two years should just be thrown out, just like that? Ok...
Nope. They should never have had a hipfire weapon in a shooter in the first place.
There is a difference between nerfing a playstyle and nerfing something that should have never been in the game.
One is a playstyle, the other never should have had a place as a playstyle.
It's a shooter. you are supposed to aim, even the tips tells you aiming is your best option, clearly the KAL went against those tips and probably went against ND's intentions, afterall, they did create those tips.
If I'm to believe what ND's tips say,
the only people who have to adapt.. I think adapt is the wrong phrase here...
The only people who have to change how the game is played are the ones who were breaking the concept of aiming in the first place. Seems fair to me
Finally if they hadn't learned how to aim within two years there is no hope for them, they should probably just go and play something easier if they are still having issues. having hipfire reliant weapons lessons the experience for people who want to play the game as intended, by aiming.
Don't quote me on that, quote the Uncharted 3 tips section.
That said, I don't entirely disagree with OP that they could make it an aimable gun. Putting it back to being a hipfire weapon is a big no though.

NO And I don't really get the whole "but I wanna aim it, I promise" thing bc it's awful when aimed. <It's about variety I've known a couple ppl to aim it, but not while they were being serious.

ND made an awesome move with what they've done to this gun. Every good player I know strongly dislikes the KAL.
Wait, wait wait. Does anyone even understand the purpose of this thread? How does reducing it's recoil to make it a viable gun to aim magically improves it's hip/blindfire accuracy??? I'm not even suggesting making it the next M9 like neverbelow said jeez, just reduce the recoil a bit so it's aimable between short and mid-range. If the horrible recoil stays of course people gonna blindfire with it if it's easier than aiming. -_-
I did say either reduce it's recoil or you may as well remove it. When did I say anything good about this gun? I can't stand Blindfire (which TLOU doesn't even have thank god) and I don't even use this crap gun, I want this to be an aiming game, like every other game involving guns out there:

First of all have you seen the Kal-7's Weapon stat?
The only thing you can aim at with this long gun is people climbing vertical stairs -.- Its a Blindfire Weapon...
An Accuracy Mod could be put for people like yourself who for some bizarre reason what to aim with a Kal...
What happened with this gun after patch is actually what follows
Its was neglected and denied its rigthful blindfire even more because
before on certain ocations the M9ROFBF could beat it, now any M9 or even a micro can beat it, when according to weapon stats only an M9ROFBF(or another kal) should have the chance to beat it on a hipfire encounter
Why Bcause unlike the other guns
they made the blindfire on the kal change its bfaccuracy levels at various distances to a point it stops shooting even when the target is practically stepin on ur toes
the other guns kept the normal ''bfaccuracy increases as you get closer until it sticks onto each other when ultra close'' but for some reason they decided to lie even fukin more with the stats
not only has the M9 is now more bfaccurate than the kal but it takes even less bullets to kill
there is still a BF chance for the gun but its a hard one and A UNFAIR ONE
WHO THE **bleep** WOULD STOP SHOOTING AT SOMEONE 2 feet away from me ??? WHO?
ND aparently
Edit: Profanity removed
Re: KA-7 is useless. Please reduce it's recoil! =AIMING
so when i can finally play the dlc maps i bougth 3 years ago because the lobby spliting is over cause the maps are free
they **bleep** up my fav gun since beta
Re: KA-7 is useless. Please reduce it's recoil! =AIMING
Time to start aiming dude & DLC maps came out last year lol.
The KAL is still good at hipfire, i'm glad you can't just chase someone down & steam roll them with the KAL anymore.

He is fun to watch but he is an awful boxer.Any decent fighter would work him. I saw 1 of his other fights on Youtube he outweighed the guy by like 50 pounds and it looks like the guy took a dive. I mean he doesnt even defend himself, letting Kimbo land 3 punches right to head after landing the majority of punches in the round

The Makeup Show LA a Beautiful Success
The Makeup Show LA took place March 2 and 3 at California Market Center. In it's 5th year, The Makeup Show LA brought together over 4,500 attendees, more than 75 beauty brands, 30 keynote speakers and seminars for a weekend full of inspiration, education, and artistry.
The show was packed with attendees from beauty professionals, retailers, buyers and over 150 editors that each stopped by to network and build relationships. With nearly a 10% increase in exhibitors this year, pro-makeup artists were also able to stock their kits with the newest products and brands on the market and pick them up at exclusive show only prices.
Shelly Taggar, Vice President for The Makeup Show states, "This was our fifth year in LA and each year becomes the most inspiring and best year yet. Attendees raved about the expansion of the show and all the new exhibitors that were added. We are now looking forward to four more shows this year in NYC, Chicago, Europe and Orlando."
The Makeup Show LA featured over 75 top beauty brands including Diamond Sponsor MAKE UP FOR EVER, Platinum Sponsor Crown Brush and Temptu Pro, Silver Sponsor NARS, Supporting Sponsors Smashbox, Stila, INGLOT, Obsessive Compulsive Cosmetics, Ruby Makeup Academy, The Powder Group and On Makeup Magazine. Other brands included: Alcone, Senna, Muse Beauty, Embryolisse USA, YoungbloodMineral Cosmetics, AJ Crimson Makeup, Kevyn Aucoin, South Seas Skincare, Billy B Beauty, Ellis Faas, Sam Fine Beauty, Cult Nails, to name a few.
The Makeup Show LA Highlights
The Makeup Show LA featured a lineup of keynote speakers by Hollywood's top celebrity makeup artists. A few in attendance included Sam Fine, Billy B., Johnny Lavoy, Uzo, James Vincent, and Mathu Andersen. Each of these artists shared their secrets to success and techniques in inspiring keynotes and demonstrations.
Many beauty brands used The Makeup Show LA to launch their newest collections exclusively at show. Attendees were amongst the first to try out and purchase their must-haves for the season. Obsessive Compulsive Cosmetics, MAKE UP FOR EVER, INGLOT, Youngblood Mineral Cosmetics, and Ofra Cosmetics newest collections and colors debuted,
NARS participated in its first The Makeup Show LA with a "Pop-Up Shop" that resembled their new store opening in Los Angeles.
Over 100 artists took advantage of this years' new Pro Resource Area where industry experts Crystal Wright and Michael DeVellis put together a panel of top agents, publicists, producers, photographers and industry insiders to view and review portfolios and offer advice to the attending artists.
Hands-On Workshops allowed a limited number of artists to be a part of intense learning with in an intimate setting. A few of the educators that coached the artists and critiqued them face to face included makeup artists Johnny Lavoy, Jon Hennessey, and Orlando Santiago.
Ruby Make Up Academy brought top FX, television, fashion and body experts to the Ruby Make Up Academy Stage with 12 inspiring topics. This stage proved to be a true showstopper from artists eager to learn more about the world of FX and film. Popular topics included how to create cuts and scars, bullet holes, and bruises.

Town Square
Some Thoughts About Recent Events
Original post made by Paul Losch, a resident of Palo Alto, on Feb 14, 2011
National Event: Does anybody honestly believe that the budget proposed by the Obama Administration and the rhetoric to same by the GOP leadership on Capitol Hill is the stuff of rational people?
California Event: Gov. Jerry Brown, unlike Arnold, is not a cheerleader, as he indicated in his proposed budget. I do not understand all the nuances of what he proposes, but I give him credit for attempting to take face on a very bad state financial situation.
Peninsula Event: CalTrain. We need to figure this one out. It is a valuable part of our transportation infrastructure and needs to be supported effectively. The current structure clearly is not working, but paring back its service offering as has been described in the media is the wrong cure for CalTrain's disease.
Palo Alto Event: the Wellbeing of our High School age kids. I have some involvement in this matter in my capacity as a CPA Parks and Recreation Commissioner. There is a great deal of effort, thinking, and action by many people and officials in the community to ascertain how at risk students are not taking their lives or other dangerous behaviors. And this is very difficult stuff. When we lost another Paly student a few weeks ago, I just felt helpless.

Except as was pointed out by Chris Martenson ... who though a bit of a conspiracy theorist in this article:
Egypt's Warning: Are You Listening?
Web Link
All the demographic trends in Egypt are trending downward. They are now not exporting any more oil, their water is running out, their population is rising still, and the people are feeling the brunt of that ... it is almost nothing to do with Democracy.
I quote the last paragraph of the article to point out that if we are not careful, and maybe even if we are, we may be facing the same thing:
``With abundant energy and food, we are treated to expansive and stable economies in which everyone stands a chance of gaining. Not that everyone will, mind you, but the possibility is there In an energy-constrained world, what was formerly possible is no longer do-able, things don't work right, and there seem to be persistent shortages of everything from growth, to money, to food, to goodwill. What used to work doesn't. It is at these points that the prior stresses and imbalances are most likely to snap and suddenly change the world.''
a resident of another community
on Feb 15, 2011 at 12:48 pm
Egypt oil exports down? Is that a big deal (especially given that they are in the middle of a coup, hopefully leading to democracy?)
Egypt produces less than 650k barrels a day, ranking it about 30th in the world. By comparison, the US produces about 5,000,000 barrels a day, Saudi about 8m. (source: CIA)
But generally I agree with your point, Egypt is an upheaval about lack of economic opportunity: jobs, wages, fairness. While the fear boys on talk radio want it to be about Al Qaeda and Islam, in fact, the people in the street showed that AQ's violent methods and religious extremism aren't the solution.
May their God(s) bless them, and good luck to Egypt!
And may all leaders, tyrant or otherwise, ignore the economic well-being of their peoples, at their peril. As Paul notes, from PA to trains to state to nation to world.
Speaking of: John Boehner, it's getting on towards March, where is the jobs legislation for which you claim you were elected Speaker? How did that phrase go?
It's the economy, stu....
a resident of Crescent Park
on Feb 15, 2011 at 1:55 pm
Anonymous, kind of pointless contradiction, especially when you go on to agree with me. follow the link to the article i posted and just look at the graphs of Egypt's predicament, and then get back to me some some more of your sarcastic disagree ment ... ah, before you decide to agree with me again! OK? ;-)
Anyway, if you are too unmotivated to click to the link and take a look, here is the executive summary:
Population 1960: 27.8 million
Population 2008: 81.7 million
Current population growth rate: 2% per annum (a 35-year doubling rate)
Population in 2046 after another doubling: 164 million <<<<<<<<<<<
Rainfall average over whole country: ~ 2 inches per year
Highest rainfall region: Alexandria, 7.9 inches per year
Arable land (almost entirely in the Nile Valley): 3%
Arable land per capita: 0.04 Ha (400 m2)
Arable land per capita in 2043: 0.02 Ha
Food imports: 40% of requirements
Grain imports: 60% of requirements
Net oil exports: Began falling in 1997, went negative in 2007
Oil production peaked in 1996
Cost of oil rising steeply
Cost of oil and food tightly linked
Any country that has to import both oil and food is living on borrowed time. It was only a matter of time before something gave way, and apparently that time is now.
This is a microcosm to one degree or another of the whole "exponential" human world.

Good grief. It doesn't remind me in even one tiny bit about the fall of the communist dictatorships. In that time, there were leaders who had read and understood principles of individual liberty and the protection thereof, principles of govts that work for protecting individual liberty, and there were people OF THE PEOPLE ready to step in and create their constitutions, their elections, their government.
This is much more like Iran...a groundswell of some university students in front with a military junta and an islamist population in the background. Iran turned into a military theocracy...worked out great, didn't it? It did not turn into a mob rule ( otherwise known as a "democracy" where 6 lions can outvote the 4 sheep on plans for dinner, then wonder why they are dying off after it is all gone). It did not turn into some style of protection for every individual regardless of gender, religion, race and sexual orientation.
I see Egypt heading the same way.
The "mob" is this
Web Link
and this
Web Link
Not to mention the many other journalists beaten and hidden away in cells until released.
This is not democracy, and the proof is in Carter now coming out in support of it. Remember, he owns the results in Iran..Geez

Local teen fundraises through Cabela's
At age 16, Damon Billington's DB Paracord company is beginning to sell Camo for a Cause paracord bracelets to benefit breast cancer research.
Starting in September, Billington's bracelets, made of camo paracord on the outside and pink on the inside, will sell in 13 Cabela's stores nationwide. The bracelets will be available in Boise, Idaho; Hammond, Ind.; Scarborough, Maine; Dundee, Mich.; Owatonna, Minn.; Rogers, Minn.; Sidney, Neb.; Hamburg, Pa.; Buda, Texas; Fort Worth, Texas; Lacey, Wash.; Wheeling, W. Va.; and Richmond, Wis.
"I think it's really cool, and I'm really excited about what's going to happen. Our whole team is going to go down there and check out the displays in Rogers and Owatonna," said Billington, of Crosslake.
Billington and his team ramped up production for a run of more than 320 bracelets for the event. For every bracelet Cabela's sells, 50 cents will be donated to the Breast Cancer Research Foundation. They will be available throughout Breast Cancer Awareness Month or until the stores run out.
"The likelihood of them ordering more this year if they run out is slim, but then they would likely do something next year," Billington said.
Similar bracelets have been a popular product with DB Paracord in the past. Billington said they were one of his best-selling bracelets last year when he began selling them in honor of his aunt who passed away from the disease.
The company is only 2 years old and his product has already gone national with "pro staff" representatives wearing his gear throughout the country. Billington's connection with Cabela's began when his father, Bruce, sent out a mass of messages to his LinkedIn contacts. A representative from Cabela's responded within 15 minutes and then contacted the Cabela's CEO. The project has been in the works since about July.
Billington said his company is not yet in contact with other sporting good stores and outfitters, but it could be a future possibility.
DB Paracord has also been involved in "Project Thank You" during this past summer. At all of the events that DB Paracord has attended, they have brought with them a large banner with an American flag background.
"We took it to all of our events over the summer, and then we would have people sign it and on Veterans Day we are taking it to a vets' home in Minneapolis to present it to them," Billington said.
Billington said the original goal of 2,000 signatures became a little unrealistic.
"With how big people signed the poster I don't think we'd be able to fit 2,000," Billington said.
Though the opportunities to sign the banner have now passed, it is still covered in signatures, and the project has been a success.
While the Camo for a Cause bracelets are officially available at Cabela's, Billington plans to cease sales of the bracelets on his own company website. But once the chain stops carrying the bracelets he said they will be available again.

As far as queen strains go, i do believe that we are offering genuinely good queens, we sub producers i mean. I didnt offer to raise and sell some of Russell's more exotic strains, but stuck to the Sunkist Italian, and buckfast. It is not hard to think that these queen types would have the claimed genes that were said that were in them, as there are multiple queen breeders that offer buckfast, such as miksa and ferguson, and there have been multiple advertisments by multiple people, offering the sunkist line, that is really a product of JN Russell. If robert got JN's hives, then he must have gotten JN's genetic lines also. This is speculation on my part, as i have never seen their operation.
This is why i have offered a refund to anyone that purchased queens from me, as Russell Apiaries NY,for this coming spring, as i do want to raise queens and offer them for sale, and i dont want to add bad blood from such a terrible issue as this.
specialkayme, i applaude you, it takes a lot for anyone to say that they were wrong, but you also went above and beyond to find out about RA, thank you
NY Blues - Kudo's for you for stepping up to the plate and taking responsiblity - it says alot about the kind of person/business person you are as opposed to remaining silent
Sippy - Taking everyting into account - including your friendship with Ricky - your're golden with me! Perhaps much of your issue was the passion attached to your posts which I now look at as trying prevent further damage. Clearly running 11 hives there is no commercial gain here for you in the near future.
Mtinaz - What you have told us about the investigation sound like good follow through and I think one way or another RR may end up in hot water up to his neck and those around him who have knowledge will be singing like birds to avoid possible prosecution. In any crime where there is more than one person with knowledge, as obviously stealing your hives was, there will be a weak link in the chain and I suspect The Sheriffs Dept. will find and exploit that link. keep us posted.
NY Blues, who did you deal with?? Did you ever speak to Dr. Robert Russell, or only emails? Visit his breeding yards?
All I can say is that I'm so glad that I dodged this bullet. I was one of the first to start talking with RR about becoming a "sub-producer". We carried out these discussions long before the term "sub-producer" was even considered. We had lengthy PM's about the intricate measures that he required to become part of the family. It all seemed very convoluted and I even bounced it off our state apiarist, who issued a "proceed with caution" note to me. One of the last communications (came through as Robert Hughes) was an invitation to become a sub-producer and the requirement of over $3000 to join the "club". With all the complaints coupled with "cloak and mirror" nonsense discussed in our PM's I decided that there were other avenues to queen rearing.
He sure seemed real.... I guess this is why so many gotten taken. A colleague from one of our local clubs got taken based upon my recommendation. I plan to make it right with that man this season by providing replacement queens free of charge.

...We don't see things as they are, we see things as WE are...
I'm still finding it hard to reconcile why my order was received and so many others were taken. RR's 'method' in this fiasco seems to have little rhyme or reason and I feel so sorry for those who were taken for much larger amounts of money than I had personally risked.
I can't seem to find my last post on this in the Russell thread, but to reiterate my experience I ordered a single queen last spring to replace a bad queen in a package I had received. Queen was delayed in the MS post office for 3 days in the heat and did not lay for 3 weeks. After an email to 'victoria' RR sent another queen at no charge overnight USPS. I started the first queen on a nuc who started laying shortly thereafter (banked queen or just the heat?) and both hives did fairly well over the summer seem to be still alive (although it is still too cold here to do a full inspection). Had I thought my money was at risk or any shady business was occurring I would have ordered elsewhere. I can't figure out why he would fulfill mine and send a replacement at his cost yet take so many other's money without so much as a response. It's sad and infuriating.
I just looked through some of my correspondence with 'Victoria' last spring and saw a message that might help some of you out. I had told her I appreciated them sending a replacement queen so quickly, and asked where I could send a thank you card.
In any case, I'm not sure if that address had been posted earlier but if not maybe it might help someone out. Good luck to you all who have lost their hard earned dollars. You have my sympathies and you've been nicer about it than I would have been.I will pass that msg along. If you'd like you can send a card to 212 Fannin Landing Cir. Brandon MS 39047. I basically eat, sleep, and live work lately. Lol. Thank you for the kind words and I hope you enjoy your queens.

Thank you, jim lyon for your comment on #51 but as a group to try to learn from this experience." Several months ago waynesgarden's #206 post on FOULBROOD IN APIARY .. stated I read the post by MSBEEINSPECTOR and, after unecessary preaching. With that I hesitate to say much, except as Sean Hannity says "TRUST, BUT VERIFY". What I will say at this point, has to do with any individual on this forum doing what is so easy. During the AFB issue I did a simple "word & phrase" search on goggle. Russell's long oration on the bacteria that he claimed he was going to teach everyone "I will first explain the bacteria", was in fact a word for word copy & paste of (MediaWiki:Copyright), and two pages from © 2011 Kenneth Todar, PhD. Sometimes a soap box built on someone else's information may crumble under your weigh.

Dare I even ask if anyone ever corroborated the story about the tragic vehicle death of two employees that supposedly set production back considerably? Maybe I dont want to know that answer to that one.
"People will generally accept facts as truth only if the facts agree with what they already believe."- Andy Rooney
This from the Russell website today:
"Holdover/Transfer orders and Cancellations
Due to the many struggles that we have faced during the 2012 season with the storm damages, the traggic loss of vital members of our crews, a large turn over of office staff, and the discovery of major health issues of our administration, there were significant breaks in our abilities to communicate with our customers. As a result, a small amount orders were not shipped. While the majority of the customers that were effected by this have rescheduled their deliveries to spring of 2013, you are welcome to request that we cancel your order instead if you would prefer. To have your 2012 order shipped in 2013 by the main company, shipped by your Local Russell Apiaries location, or request a cancellation, please send an email to firstname.lastname@example.com "
perhaps it is old news?
I also noticed that they are WAY down in the number of breeds they profess to produce. Only 7 - a couple variations on Sunkist, Carniolan, Italian/Carniolan, and "Tiger" and "Pollinator"
where are the Moonbeams, Russians, etc.?

DUI driver arrested after crash just north of Mendocino County
A 25-year-old Whitethorn man was arrested on suspicion of driving under the influence of alcohol after he lost control and overturned his pickup truck just north of the Mendocino County line early Saturday morning, according to the California Highway Patrol.
Jeffrey T. Hughes was headed south on Briceland Thorn Road, 0.7 miles north of the county line, at 12:05 a.m. Saturday when he let his truck leave the right side of the road, according to the CHP. He reportedly tried to turn back onto the road and lost control of the vehicle.
The truck slid east across the road, hit a small, dirt embankment and rolled onto its side, according to the CHP. Hughes, who reportedly wasn't wearing his seat belt, was taken to Jerold Phelps Community Hospital in Garberville, where he was treated for loss of consciousness and severe pain to his right hip.
Alcohol was a factor in the crash, according to the CHP, and Hughes is to be charged on suspicion of driving under the influence, driving with a blood-alcohol level greater than the legal limit and driving without a license.
Crash south of Piercy sends Santa Cruz man to hospital
A 23-year-old Santa Cruz man went to the hospital with major injuries after he swerved to avoid a deer in the road and went down an embankment in Northern Mendocino County Friday night, according to the California Highway Patrol.
Benjamin Middlemiss was driving a 2005 Toyota Matrix south on Highway 101 just south of Piercy at 8:32 p.m. Friday when he swerved to avoid hitting the animal, but wasn't successful, according to the CHP.
The abrupt turning movement caused Middlemiss to lose control, and the vehicle left the west edge of the road and rolled about 200 feet down a steep, wooded embankment, according to the CHP. Middlemiss was reportedly wearing his seatbelt.
He was transported to Redwood Memorial Hospital in Fortuna and treated for a possibly broken arm and a possible neck injury. Alcohol was not a factor in the crash, according to the CHP.
The CHP "urges motorists to be cautious when driving due to the high number of deer-related collisions."

Black bean brownies
Quinoa salad
Taco topping
Sandwich addition
Sprinkle with garlic salt and eat with fork
I second the BLT suggestion, as well as any sandwich/wrap with turkey or chicken. You could also top a mexican burger or add to a quinoa or pasta salad.
Or, you could make this: Grilled Chicken with Green Chili, Tomatillo, and Avocado Sauce
So yummy!
I have the same problem as well.
I'm using it for tacos tonight (I also have a mango so probably will make some sort of mango/avocado salsa) but otherwise I would throw it in a salad - I really like citrus fruit paired with avocado.
Lurker Loo.
I'm late to the post, but I just read in the Sneaky Chef books that you can put 1/4 an avocado in fruit smoothies. It doesn't affect the taste or color, just adds nutrients. I made a bunch of smoothies to freeze yesterday with the avocado added and had the whole family taste test. No one knew! If you google Sneaky Chef's Sinless Smoothies you might be able to find the whole recipe.

What I used for mine was the 2 air intake valves off of a cheap respirator mask. They popped off and I painted them black -Greg
My guess is that they are a part of the found jumpsuite, which I think (if I remember correctly) is a diving skin of some kind. It's the same piece that was used for "cantina dude" This is just my speculation though so take it for what it is.
They are part of the real suit
I think it was a Windack (sp?) flight suit IIRC
I read a thread a while back on some other forum
hard to keep track
check out CuteLucca.com Abby's website, there is a Bossk section about her build and what her stuff is, a lot she made herself... her suit was amazing, wish I would have bought it. Believe its in Carolina now.

That's why an entire section of JumpTheShark.com, "New Kid In Town," is devoted to characters that its readership believes represent the "jump the shark" moment -- or one of the moments, at least -- for a series. JTS readers nominate and vote on various jump moments for each show.
LOTD reader Dianna suggested I list some of the more notable ones, so I did. The quotes in italics are from JumpTheShark.com readers (with errors left intact).
See the full list and votes here.
Seven (Shane Sweet) on "Married... With Children"
The addition of Seven in season seven (1992) beats even perennial show-killer Ted McGinley as top vote-getter for the jump-the-shark moment, although the hit series would last another four seasons after Seven joined the cast.
"If Married... With Children jumped the shark, it was the 'new kid in town' Seven that did it. Not Ted McGinley. And not Steve's 'exit... stage left.' Seven made no sense."
"I think this show got BETTER and FUNNIER with the addition of Ted McGinley, which might be a first."
Cousin Oliver (Robbie Rist) on "The Brady Bunch"
Oliver joins the cast near the end of season five (1974) and appears in only five episodes before the plug is pulled on the Bradys forever.
His episodes are among the worst of the entire series, and include at least one -- the hair tonic episode -- that was so lame, Robert Reed refused to appear.
"Oliver is and always will be the demise of The Brady Bunch. He was an utter annoyance. I watched The Brady Bunch religiously as a child and once I saw Oliver on the show, I knew it was over."
"In some ways, Oliver must be revered as being one of the founding fathers of Jump the Shark history."
Olivia (Raven Symone) on "The Cosby Show"
Olivia joined the cast in season six (1989) as the step-daughter of Denise (Lisa Bonet) when Bonet returned to the Cosby cast full-time after a break to do "A Different World."
"... (Olivia) was such a ham that it became really annoying. Sorry, but nobody wanted to watch an entire episode about her wanting to go to the zoo instead of to church with some wise old woman named Gramtee. And what the hell is a gramtee anyway?"
Sam (Danny Cooksey) on "Diff'rent Strokes"
Cooksey appears in season six as the son of Mr. Drummond's love interest, Maggie (Dixie Carter), then both join the show as regulars in season seven (1984), just in time for ridiculous "very special" storylines about custody battles, kidnapping, epilepsy, mugging, paralysis, and other mirth. The show lasts only one more season.
"Definitely jumped when Sam joined the cast, and I agree with the previous poster, the acting was HORRIBLE! The lines were stuff adults MIGHT say, but kids never..."You'll have to excuse my brother..." "Ms. Chung, as class president, may I say a few words?"...kids don't talk like that..."
"One of the biggest jumps was after Sam arrived, he and Arnold had a competition selling ROACH SPRAY...in their luxury apt bldg on the Upper East Side..."
Stephanie (Danielle Brisebois) on "All In The Family"
Stephanie was added at the beginning of the show's ninth -- and final -- season (1978) after Mike and Gloria depart at the end of the season prior. She then joins the cast of "Archie Bunker's Place" after "All In The Family" ends.
JTS readers actually voted Mike & Gloria's departure as the top "jump the shark" moment of the series, with Stephanie's appearance coming in at #2, and I'm inclined to agree. I think it even jumped a little when baby Joey was born.
"AITF obviously jumped when Mike & Gloria moved away. That final show of the season (when Edith & Archie are just sitting in their chairs after a brief cry) should have been the finale for the show. No Archie Bunker's Place, no Stephanie (gag!) & no lumbering on after that episode."
Albert (Matthew Laborteaux) on "Little House On The Prairie"
Charles & Caroline Ingalls move to the city and adopt street urchin Albert at the beginning of season five (1978). The series would continue for four more seasons, so you can't really say Albert killed it. Personally, I think Mary going blind was the final nail in the coffin. Speaking of, Michael Landon dying didn't help, either.
"The show was at its best before Albert came onboard. I never much cared for the 'moving to the big city' episodes, but I sincerely wish the Ingalls had never decided to drag Albert's sorry butt back with them to Walnut Grove. It was Albert who started this show on a downward path of no return."
"There was one continuing plotline that was so ridiculous -- Charles' and Caroline's penchant for adopting every stray urchin to happen across their path. WTH? This family which is always on the brink of ruin what with the hailstorms destroying the corn and the mill in perpetual bankruptcy somehow expand their family every season."
Luke (Leonardo DiCaprio) on "Growing Pains"
Homeless teen Luke Brower appeared late in season six (1991), then joined the cast full-time in season seven in a last-ditch effort by producers to save the dying show. It didn't work. "Growing Pains" was moved to Saturday night -- TV's graveyard -- to make way for newer series, then cancelled at the end of the season.
But it was the appearance of another kid, Chrissy, a season earlier that gets more votes from JTS readers as the series' jump moment.
"Talk about a real ZERO addition to the show. Some successful doctor and his 'perfect family' is going to take in a 'homeless' kid? How believable is that? Apparently the state where the Seaver's lived did not have a foster care system."
Ricky (Ricky Seagall) on "The Partridge Family"
Precocious 4-year-old Ricky was added at the beginning of season four, as the hit series' ratings declined and star David Cassidy started whining about the rigors of fame and fortune and talked openly about leaving the show. "The Partridge Family" was cancelled at the end of that season.
We watched this show and I don't even remember this little twerp. I do remember poor fugly Danny Bonaduce growing out his hair into some sort of giant red pelt. Now, could someone please point me in the direction of Albuquerque?
"I thought the show was okay until Ricky Segall (who unbeknownst to many, changed his name to "Ted McGinley" when he got older) came on the scene. Oh look everyone, Ricky's here to sing and wave his head back and forth like a pigeon on Prozac. Everyone's ear plugs in place?"
Vicki (Jill Whelan) on "The Love Boat"
Vicki came aboard in season three as the daughter Captain Stubing never knew he had. She was added not because of sagging ratings, but because producers wanted younger viewers (what, kids don't like Charo and Bert Convy?!).
More JTS readers cite the addition of Ted McGinley as photographer Ace in season seven was the real show killer, but honestly, although I loved it as a kid and it has sentimental value for me, "The Love Boat" jumped the shark the moment it aired. It was terrible. I tried to watch it recently and couldn't make it past about four minutes.
"The Little-Orphan-Annie, red-headed, freckle-faced thing got worse with puberty, so the jump extends into the puberty category, as well."
"The Love Boat jumped the shark before it even left port. I guess there was a great white circling the waters there in Long Beach (or wherever it supposedly sailed from) that got run over by the Pacific Princess on her maiden voyage."
Jeremy (Ralph Macchio) on "Eight is Enough"
Macchio, as Abby's rebellious nephew, Jeremy, joins the Bradford household in the show's fifth and final season, and gets the second highest number of votes as the shark-jumping moment of the series. Number one? The addition of Susan's baseball-star husband, Merle the Pearl (Brian Patrick Clarke), in season three.
Right on. Merle sucked. I remember. We loved the show until he came along, then it got insufferably lame. They had eight kids for chrissakes! It's not like they were hurting for characters.
"Actually, four would have been enough."
"'There's a plate of homemade wishes on the kitchen window sill...' is actually drug-speak for a plate of homemade hashish brownies. i know i had to be high to watch this show. i blame "eight is enough" for the failed war on drugs."
Chachi (Scott Baio) on "Happy Days"
Oh, Spinderfella won't like this one.
Fonzie's greaseball, sleeveless-shirt-wearing cousin Chachi Arcola appeared in season five, became a love interest for Joanie, and later joined Richie's band on drums.
A tiny number (74 votes) of JTS readers think that Chachi was the jump point for "Happy Days"; I guess they forgot about FONZIE JUMPING A SHARK on water skis in season five, the scene that created the whole idea of "jumping the shark" in the first place. Hello?
And if that wasn't it, Richie leaving the show two seasons later surely was. And don't call me Shirley.
"Live studio audience - Fonzie living at the Cunningham's - Richie using more and more "slogans" - Chachi ---- all indicitive of a show on the way out and leaving bad memories."
"The worst thing was the emergence of the Fonzie character. This short little skinny weasel couldn't scare anyone in real life and they had big tough guys backing down from him. Sometimes 2 and 3 guys would run away. What is he? like 5'6 and 150 pounds?"
"when joanie went from a NOSY LITTLE SISTER TO A FRIZZY HAIRED SLUT WITH A BIG BUTT"
Penny (Janet Jackson) on "Good Times"
Abused child Penny joins the cast in season five when the Evans' friend and neighbor Willona (Ja'Net DuBois) adopts the abandoned girl.
Her appearance is just the sixth most popular reason for the show jumping the shark; JTS readers vote the departure of the dad, James, Sr. (John Amos) after the season one as the top reason.
I guess I agree -- we watched this -- but I also recall that the show started to suck when everything became about J.J. and him saying "DY-NO-MITE" 27 times in every goddamn episode.
"How the hell did she get that role, anyway? Was she the only one who auditioned?"
"I liked the show much better after they got rid of loud mouth James, the father. All the man ever did was fight & yell. The episode where they get the telegram that he was killed, made my day."
"Good Times jumped a whole tank of sharks: Penny...when James Evans "died"... Florida leaves, then comes back...annoying studio audience: Yelling, "Right On!" or "Mmm-Hmmm!" whenever a scripted black injustice was brought up..."

Ricky and Oliver! ABSOLUTELY!! Even as a kid, I hated these two with a passion.ReplyDelete
Can't agree with Albert on Little House on the Prairie though. I had a little girl crush on him and thought that he was alright. Little House never did have any cute boys on the show. Willie Olsen? *gag* Albert was as close as us 8 year olds got to a Little House heart throb.
Those shows deserved to die anyway. Well, except Married With Children. We still miss you Al Bundy.ReplyDelete
LOL @ "mm-hmm" and "Right ON!" after every scripted black injustice. A lot of 70's shows had talky audience members if I remember correctly.ReplyDelete
And I hated the Jenny Piccolo character in Happy Days.
Laverne & Shirley jumped the shark when they moved to Hollywood. wth?
How come Arnold and Sam had to share a room in that big ass penthouse apartment? That's wack.
Cousin Oliver (Robbie Rist) on "The Brady Bunch"ReplyDelete
Thank you for this post. I have been racking my brain trying to remember the name of the albino Chinese boy who destroyed The Brady Bunch.
Scott Baio. Raven-Symone. Janet Jackson. Leonardo DiCaprio. Well, obviously being the new kid on the show ruined their careers, and they were never heard from again.ReplyDelete
Yes, but just as many went the way of the dodo.ReplyDelete
It's always something to see a Jackson before all the plastic surgery...ReplyDelete
Yes, but just as many went the way of the dodo.ReplyDelete
Killed by pigs and macaque monkeys. What stage mom would want that for her kid?
Awesome list!ReplyDelete
Danielle Brisbois is now a successful songwriter/producer, as well. She was a member of the band "New Radicals" back in the 90's and most recently she co-wrote and produced "Unwritten" and "Pocketful of Sunshine" for Natasha Bedingfield. Both singles were Billboard #1's.
In 2001, Robbie Rist appeared with members of the Brady Bunch cast on an episode of the game show The Weakest Link. During the introductions, he joked that "I hope I don't kill this show too!" The other cast members voted him off the show as the first "weakest link", probably because they thought he didn't belong there. NBC canceled The Weakest Link a few months later.ReplyDelete
I was a rabid "Growing Pains" fan. Even as a kid, I hated Luke and wanted him off the show. Part of my hatred spawned from legions of Leo fangirls at my elementary school who said they loved him in "Titanic" (I was the only person in my class who even saw the movie). I also knew he added nothing to the show.ReplyDelete
I got sooo mad when the Seavers adopted him. I kept hoping he'd run away and live at the bus stop again or something.
I don't think Albert was the JTS moment for Little House. Neither was Mary going blind. In real life, Mary was blind. The JTS moment for Little House was when Mary (who, for the record never got married) & her hubby had their school burned down & their baby die in same fire.ReplyDelete
In most cases, by the time these kids were added, I'd already stopped watching the shows.
I agree with all but Albert, like LTG said. He's always been one of my obscure crushes. I'd hit that. ;)ReplyDelete
What about Andy on Family Ties???ReplyDelete
Any time they inject new blood into a show, it usually means the show is dying.
cary, i meant to tell you that i love the line from Flagpole Sitta on your banner today. can i add?ReplyDelete
"been around the world and found that only stupid people are breeding."
indeed. thank you, harvey danger. just, thank you.
Any time they inject new blood into a show, it usually means the show is dying.ReplyDelete
Not E.R. They're injecting new blood all the time and the show still has strong storylines and good acting. But they're doctors, so maybe they know how to inject blood without killing.
Is there any example where a show did not jump the shark with such a major addition or was even enhanced by it?
I think they meant "new kid blood", not new adult blood, kushibo.ReplyDelete
I'd say 'Lost' fits that bill as well. Always injecting new blood, but the show is sharper than ever.
'Stargate' is another example. When Daniel died and they brought in the new guy - Quinn? (It's been awhile since I saw it.) It was still pretty good. But it definitely jumped when MacGyver left and they brought in Beau Bridges.

Actually, on E.R. they do add kids to the show. Abby's baby, son of Sam, and the girl that John Stamos is taking care of. But I think E.R. is an outlier just because it's an ensemble show that always had a rotating cast/staff: bringing in someone new doesn't have the same import.
Kushibo, not sure where you got the "inject" line, but ER jumped the shark years ago... about the time someone crashed a tank (!) into the hospital... then it circled around and jumped the shark a couple more times... helicopters falling from the sky, ambulances blowing up, etc.ReplyDelete
That said, for many years it was the best show on TV, in my opinion.
Oliver sucked. I hated that kid. He always fucked everything up.ReplyDelete
helicopters falling from the sky, ambulances blowing up, etc.ReplyDelete
Maybe you're right. Having never visited Illinois, I just assumed that was typical for Chicago.
Lol, Poodlehead...ReplyDelete
Your comment made me think what a trip that show would have been if the Brady kids would've been able to use PG-13 language. "Goddammit, Oliver fucked everything up again."
But not R, though. Then the writers might have gone all Family Guy on us and maybe had Marcia and Greg hook up. And that would just be icky.
Sorry, Cary. I'm ruining your blog.
I can't be the only one here to think that Scrappy Doo killed the whole Scooby Doo show...ReplyDelete
I'd punt that little punk Scrappy Doo down the street, yo!ReplyDelete
He had an attitude and didn't respect his uncle!
Yes, you're right. Scrappy Doo fucked it all up. As a kid I hated that little asshole. We all did.ReplyDelete
Yes, I think All In the Family jumped some when little baby Joey was born too. It just changed the dynamics of the show too much. Archie as a Grandpa had to be softer and show he had a heart more.ReplyDelete
Great list, Cary! :)
Even in 1974, Cousin Oliver looked like a middle-aged creepy guy who works in a comic book store.ReplyDelete
Cary, I do hope you don't think ER jumped the shark until after my appearance in season 10. It is still my fave, I will be sorry when it goes.
Okay. Is it just me, or does little Robbie Rist bear a striking resemblance to Benny Hill? Wasn't his show popular? Ya think the ding-dongs (euphemism intended) wanted to capture that audience?ReplyDelete
Scrappy. What a punk! Even as a seven year old, I knew that he was wrong for the show's vibe.ReplyDelete
- CajunManMarch 24, 2009 at 6:58 AM
Brian Bonsall on "Family Ties". Quinn Cummings on "Family". Going back to the early '70s, Dawn Lyn as little Dodie hastened the demise of "My Three Sons".ReplyDelete
Dexter's baby might be a new addition to this list very soon...ReplyDelete
You were no ER, Woodwoman? Cool. Were you dead or alive?ReplyDelete
I hate Scrappy Doo! What's funny is that my kids watch Scooby all the time and they hate Scrappy too!ReplyDelete
I've read reports that my fav show, Supernatural, has an upcoming episode titled "Jumping the Shark" as an homage kinda thing. Although, it could probably be said the improbable overall storyline is the ultimate in shark jumping LOL Ah, who gives a shit...Jensen Ackles is just HAWT! LOL
I had already stopped watching each and every one of those shows (except Happy Days) by the time these new characters were added, so they all jumped the shark before the additions.ReplyDelete
And as a rabid Scott Baio/Chachi fan, he so did NOT ruin Happy Days.
I remember the episode of Different Strokes where Sam got kidnapped and molested. It is the only one I can clearly remember. And I have the therapy bills to show for it!ReplyDelete
Cary, I'm "background" doctor, signing charts, checking out x-rays, on the season 10 finale. Alas, I do not speak.ReplyDelete
If I were an actor, I would now insert all those annoying lame-ass phrases actors use like "honing my craft" and "getting my acting chops in" -ugh. That was my one-time moment. Well, that and Romper Room in 1966. Miss Judy did not like kids when the camera wasn't on, btw. I felt so used.
- AnonymousMarch 24, 2009 at 12:31 PM
Oooohhh - Woodwoman with a Romper Room expose. Pray tell?ReplyDelete
Scrappy Doo definitely did in Scooby.ReplyDelete
I agree that new kids never make a show better. I guess you could make a case for Facts of Life which basicaly blew up the cast after a season or two even though I never cared for the show from the beginning.
As far as an adult addition making a show better. I nominate Kirstie Alley. I really thought Cheers was done when they shipped out Diane but it actually got better.
Cheers was fortunate to have a creative team and ensemble cast that were both talented enough to compensate for the loss or replacement of any one character. Shows like Diff'rent Strokes, The Brady Bunch and Good Times did not.ReplyDelete
Oh, and as for Scooby Doo, I have my own lyrics for the opening song.ReplyDelete
Scooby Dooby Doo,
Where the fuck are you?
You stupid motherfucker
You're always sniffin' butts
And humpin' legs
And drinkin' toilet water

An Overview of Reyataz (Atazanavir)
June 20, 2014
Brand Name: Reyataz
Chemical Image:
Atazanavir can cause serious side effects. These include heart rhythm problems, severe rash, liver problems, and life-threatening drug interactions.
Contact your health care provider right away if you have any of the following symptoms that may signal heart rhythm problems:
Stop taking atazanavir and contact your health care provider right away if you have a severe rash or a rash combined with any of the following symptoms:
In people with existing liver problems, including infection with hepatitis B virus (HBV) or hepatitis C virus (HCV), atazanavir can cause worsening of liver problems. Contact your health care provider right away if you have any of the following symptoms that may signal liver problems:
While taking atazanavir, it is important to keep all of your appointments with your health care provider.
What Is Atazanavir?
Atazanavir is a prescription medicine approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the treatment of HIV infection in adults and children 3 months of age and older who weigh at least 22 pounds (10 kg). Atazanavir is always used in combination with other HIV medicines.
Atazanavir belongs to a class (group) of HIV medicines called protease inhibitors (PIs). PIs block an HIV enzyme called protease. (An enzyme is a protein that starts or increases the speed of a chemical reaction.) By blocking protease, PIs prevent HIV from multiplying and can reduce the amount of HIV in the body.
Atazanavir does not cure HIV/AIDS. People with HIV should stay on continuous HIV treatment as directed by their health care provider and should take steps to avoid passing HIV to others (for example, always using a condom during sex).
What Should I Tell My Health Care Provider Before Taking Atazanavir?
Before taking atazanavir, tell your health care provider:
How Should I Take Atazanavir?
Atazanavir comes in the following forms and strengths:
Atazanavir capsules are for use in adults and in children 6 years of age and older. Atazanavir oral powder is for use in children 3 months of age and older who weigh at least 22 pounds (10 kg) but less than 55 pounds (25 kg).
Take atazanavir according to your health care provider's instructions.
Take atazanavir with food. Swallow the capsules whole. Do not open the capsules.
Atazanavir oral powder must be mixed with food or liquid. When preparing the oral powder for a child who can take food, mix the oral powder with food such as applesauce or yogurt, instead of a liquid (milk, infant formula, or water). If atazanavir oral powder is mixed with water, your child must eat food right after taking the oral powder. Infants less than 6 months old and who cannot eat solid food or drink from a cup should be given atazanavir oral powder mixed with infant formula by using an oral dosing syringe. (Ask your pharmacist for a dosing syringe.) For more information about mixing atazanavir oral powder, see the Patient Information leaflet that comes with atazanavir.
Always take atazanavir in combination with other HIV medicines.
If you take too much atazanavir, contact your local poison control center (1-800-222-1222) or go to the nearest hospital emergency room.
For more information on how to take atazanavir, see the FDA drug label from DailyMed. (DailyMed is a federal website that includes the most recent drug labels submitted to FDA.)
What Should I Do if I Forget a Dose?
Take the missed dose as soon as you remember it. But if it is almost time for your next scheduled dose, skip the missed dose and just take your next dose at the regular time. Do not take two doses at the same time to make up for a missed dose.
What Side Effects Can Atazanavir Cause?
Atazanavir can cause severe side effects. These include heart rhythm problems, severe rash, liver problems, and life-threatening drug interactions. (See the WARNING above.)
Other possible side effects of atazanavir include:
Tell your health care provider if you have any side effect that bothers you or that does not go away.
These are not all the possible side effects of atazanavir. Ask your health care provider or pharmacist for more information on possible side effects of atazanavir.
How Should Atazanavir Be Stored?
Where Can I Find More Information About Atazanavir?
More information about atazanavir is available:

text: What was your first Car or Truck? I don't feel like searching and digging up a thread about your first car/truck,so I'll start a new one. I bought my first truck back in 2000, when i was 15. i was about to turn 16, so i went to my local GM dealer (also where I bought my wife's Terrain, and all my vehicles except my mitsubishi). i saw the new 2000 gm trucks in the showroom, but i only had $1,430 to spend. i went outside and found a 1972 GMC K10 Sierra 1500. it was a standard cab, short box with the 350 and a 4 speed. it was two tone. top and bottom were soft mint green, and the middle stripe was white. if that truck were restored, it would've been absolutely gorgeous. it had a red tailgate and the alignment was off by about 3 inches to the right. the fenders had a gap about 2 inches from the bottom of the doors, and there was no gap at the top of the fenders, meaning it had been jumped. the box was the same deal, there was no gap between the cab and the box at the top of the box, but there was about 2 inches at the bottom of the box. so basically, the truck was curved like a shallow semi-circle when you looked at it from the side. there was minimal rust, and the frame had been patched with metal and weld and sprayed with undercoat protector and black paint in 1999, so the frame was spotless. body had the biggest rust holes patched and painted, but there was a bit of surface rust. i fell in love with it, brought it home, nick named it the Semi Circle Sierra, and made plans to keep it forever and restore it. wish i could have, and I would've. i would've patched the rust, fixed alignment and straighten the frame, would've got the paint restored to original, not repainted, would've got some 22/23" American Racing Torq Thrust rims (staggered fit), would've put the '72 Chevy front grille and headlight surround on it, rebuild the 350 etc. in summer of 2004, i had already gotten the alignment and frame straightening done, and the truck was going in for paint restoration 2 weeks after this incident happened. one night, my girlfriend (who is now my beautiful wife) and I were driving home from a party on a country road, and a moose walked in front of my truck, smoked the moose and lost control, flipped the truck onto it's side and totaled it. i was heartbroken and didn't speak to anyone for at least 3 weeks. got over it, and eventually bought a 1996 Silverado 1500 extended cab stepside with the 350 in it, red gloss color, liked that truck. eventually sold it for a 2005 GMC Sierra (showroom special SLE with too many upgrades to list), of which i rolled in a similar incident, except it was another car and it wasn't my fault. now I'm here with my '09 Z71. so, what was your first truck, and what's the story behind it?


text: This will be my third season with my bees. Started out late 2 years ago with doing a cutout from my grandparents house after the Joplin tornado. Then later that fall found a large feral open air hive and brought it back home and transferred it to a hive box. Did splits last year and two hives jumped to six. 3 of the hives are a deep and a medium and the other three are single deeps. I opened my hives the other day, 60 degrees and sunny. All 6 doing very well. 5/6 having frames of lots of capped brood. 1/6 having small area a bit larger than a soft ball of capped brood but throughout 5 frames front and back. 3/6 having more than one box with capped brood. Saw 5/6 of my queens and all hives have new brood/eggs. I went ahead and put mediums on all 6. They are moving fast and early here in NW Arkansas. One of the larger hives population is heavy and has lots of brood(capped and uncapped) throughout the 6 deep frames and like 5 of the medium frames. Some of the medium frames are a bit messy where the wax foundation got hot and folded a bit and in those areas the queen has laid and now there is capped DRONE brood. It's not a lot. Small areas on just a few frames on the lower outer edge of a large regular worker brood area with wonderful laying patterns. It's early... and that's the only reason I am worried. I found no other evidence of possible swarm action and like I said I placed a new medium box on top. I might do that again this weekend depending on the weather and what they have done so far with the new medium. We have a few things blooming here already like quints and buck brush and the bees are foraging and bring pollen back too. This hive will most likely be my first split of the year. what do you guys think? Stay this course ?

Game name: EvE Online
Game Description:
What is EVE Online?
EVE is a Massively Multiplayer Online Game (MMORPG) that takes place approximately 20.000 years after our times in a galaxy on the far end of the universe. When you join EVE you assume the role of a freshly graduated Capsuleer, a relatively small group of elite spaceship pilots capable of controlling powerful spaceships on their own from within their capsules. Capsuleers are often referred to as "The immortals" due to the fact that the highly advanced capsules they are connected to from the inside, are capable of instantly dowloading their consciousness to a clone of themselves in the case of physical destruction.
A few things make EVE special amongst other MMORPGs...
EVE is a single "shard" virtual world. What that means is that everyone who joins EVE becomes a part of the same world and the same community. The industry standard for MMORPGs is to run the game on multiple smaller servers, so called shards, so that each player only has the opportunity of interaction with a few thousand other players even if the number of subscribers can be in the millions. In EVE you have the opportunity to affect more than 250.000 other players in one way or another as all our players are a part of the same persistent universe, hosted on the worlds most powerful gaming server yet.
In EVE you are free to choose your own destiny. You start out as a character from one of four races that inhabit the EVE universe but apart from slightly different starting skills you are free to take your character in any direction you want. You are not restricted by predefined character classes or professions. You can trade to make a living, conduct mining operations, market your fighting skills as a mercenary, camp the spacelanes for profit as a pirate, conduct espionage and infiltration, focus on research and manufacturing, or perform increasingly profitable missions for NPC (non player controlled, run by the EVE system) agents. What you choose to do day by day is up to you. You can play alone, form a corporation (equivalent of clan or guild) with a close group of friends or seek entrance to any of the large player run corporations and alliances already established. The EVE Unviverse and its 5000 unique solar systems are yours to explore and conquer.
In EVE you dont level up like in most games. You purchase skills which then train in real time until finished. The skills train even while you are offline. Skills give you a myriad of different abilities. Some allow you to fly specific types of ships or use a particular weapon while others focus more on general things. Each skill has five levels which all give the same percentage bonus to whatever field of your gameplay they affect. Each level however takes increasingly longer to train so that players are always faced with the choice of specializing in one field, or spend the skill training time equally on many different fields.
