BeschreibungThe new frontier: Internet. This is one of the limits to the community of Neural Networks today. Most of the work related to Neural Networks pays little attention to the use of Internet technology. As a matter of fact, the author thinks that some element was needed as a kind of vehicle to bridge these two worlds. This is the reason why "Web-Based Neural Networks" came to light. There is a general preconception that Neural Networks, as a field of study, must be difficult to master. Any attempt to simplify the learning process in this field is generally met with sharp criticism. This may reflect a feeling that ordinary people should not understand some subjects. To counteract these preconceptions and facilitate understanding, "Web-Based Neural Networks" is presented in a simple and straightforward manner. It is designed for students, first-level programmers, and others who are interested in Neural Networks and how they can be used in conjunction with the Internet.

It may seem a harsh sentiment; but he who in his soul believes that man does of his own free-will turn to God, cannot have been taught of God, for that is one of the first principles taught us when God begins with us, that we have neither will nor power, but that He gives both; that He is "Alpha and Omega" in the salvation of men.

Reacting on the ultimatum issued by Rajya Sabha MP Birender Singh that he would not contest poll under the Congress banner, if Bhupinder Singh Hooda was not replaced as chief ministerial candidate, former cabinet minister Sampat Singh on Wednesday said "if a senior leader like him (Birender Singh) calling it quits, then Congress would surely be weakened".
The Nalwa MLA, Sampat, said this while interacting with reporters in Delhi on Wednesday, where he held a meeting with Haryana Congress incharge Shakeel Ahmad and Congress Haryana chief Ashok Tanwar.
Talking to Hindustan Times over phone, he said: "Even if a blocklevel worker quits, the party will surely suffer, whereas Birender has a big stature in the party and that is why he has been sent to the Rajya Sabha despite having many other senior party leaders in queue."
Commenting on the demand of prominent Jat leader from Banger area that Birender to replace Hooda as the chief ministerial candidate, he said the issue had already been resolved after Congress vice president Rahul Gandhi conveyed his message after deliberations and thus raking it up again does not hold logic.
"Birender should understand that the kind of respect he commands in Congress, he will get nowhere else (BJP) and his calling it quits won't finish of the grand old party despite his big stature and importance," he said.
On Congress drubbing in the Lok Sabha elections, he said the party had to face debacle as it delayed the decision to name the Haryana Cong ress president.
"At present, Tanwar is looking after the party affairs in a professional manner, so the party will repeat its 2004 and 2009 success in the state," he added.

text: I think that is true pretty much anywhere because of the on-ice seating. Even sacrificing a couple yards all around, any NHL size ice is still way bigger than some of the places they skated before about 1970. Unlike SOI, COI always came to DC (2 shows some years) and always skated in the largest arena (Cap Center in Landover, MD then MCI/Verizon Center in downtown DC). I remember seeing SOI at George Mason University arena in Fairfax, which didn't even have its own ice and was basically only big enough for a basketball court (and not nearly big enough to do justice to skaters with speed like Kulik). I thought getting away from venues like that made sense and you are right, it probably is sound economics to not use expensive arenas you can't fill. Personally I didn't think the Baltimore arena was that bad. It remains my favorite of the 4 locations in which I have seen SOI, all things considered.

One of four: Great Wall importer Ateco says the C50 sedan (to be called VX50 here) will be on-sale in 2014 with a small turbo petrol engine.
12 March 2013
By MIKE COSTELLO
THE distributor of Australia's most popular Chinese car brand, Great Wall, aims to almost double sales volume by the end of 2014 as it embarks on an ambitious expansion into passenger cars.
According to independent importer Ateco Automotive, Great Wall will add an extra four models in three segments – light, small and crossover SUV – and attain a running rate of 20,000 annual sales by the end of 2014.
For point of reference, the projected sales figure is more than non-comparable brands Jeep, BMW or Audi sold here last year, and less than 5000 units shy of Suzuki (a former Ateco client).
First off the blocks will be a facelifted version of the Toyota Yaris-sized (and similarly styed) VX10, which will launch in the third quarter of this year priced around $13,000 – almost two years behind schedule.
Ateco spokesman Daniel Cotterill said the VX10 would feature six airbags and stability control from launch, but stopped short of saying it would be Australia's first five-star ANCAP Chinese car.
Joining the VX10 by year's end will be a monocoque crossover SUV called H6, which will start a staggered roll-out from around quarter four.
Initially, the H6 is likely to be available with a 2.0-litre petrol engine and manual gearbox, with diesel and automatic versions to follow in 2014. It will also be available in both four-wheel-drive and price-leading front-drive guise – the latter a first for Great Wall.
The H6 will replace the petrol-powered, separate-chassis X240 SUV (currently priced from $23,990 drive-away), which will be discontinued at the end of 2013 due to the lack of ESC stability control.
According to Ateco's general manager for Great Wall, Peter McGeown, the diesel X200, which does have stability control, will soldier on for a little longer but will eventually be replaced by the oil-burning H6.
As reported last December, the H6 was caught up in a pollution scare when one vehicle in China was found to have more than three times the permitted level of the chemical formaldehyde in its cabin air.
However, it was unclear if the pollutants – widely used in production of plastics and other synthetic materials – leached from the vehicles' standard parts or unauthorised accessories fitted later by the drivers of the privately owned vehicles that were up to two months old.
Next year will also see the addition of the Corolla-sized, sub-$20,000 VX30 hatch and marginally larger VX50 sedan.
The VX30 is currently sold in China as a sedan, but Ateco is believed to be waiting for the hatch to launch before launching sales in the third quarter of 2014. The car is sold as the C30 in China, and Ateco admits one of the reasons for the switch was Volvo's trademark of the C30 name here.
Rather than offer a VX30 sedan, Ateco will instead offer the Cruze-sized VX50, which as we have reported is expected to be powered by a 1.5-litre turbo petrol engine producing a respectable 98kW and 188Nm engine matched with a five-speed manual gearbox or optional continuously variable automatic transmission.
The car, known as the C50 in China, is available with electronic stability control – now mandatory in Australia – plus side and curtain airbags, tyre pressure monitoring, anti-lock brakes with electronic brake-force distribution, and doors that automatically unlock after a crash.
Mr McGeown said to expect a different marketing strategy from the company, moving beyond the sparse and simple television and print adverts used on its current range.
From top: Great wall H6 and VX30"I think you'll probably see a different approach with that. We did what we did for a reason, it was a value for money message and it worked. But there comes a time when you need to review that, especially having passenger cars as we will," he said.
Great Wall is already one of this country's fastest growing car companies, having struck a chord at the budget end of the ute and SUV markets with its V and X Series models respectively since its launch here in 2009.
Last year, the company sold more than 11,000 units from its national dealer network, which presently sits on 87 sites. This was up from 8665 units in 2011, 6690 units in 2010 and just 1907 in its first year on sale.
Mr McGeown projects this figure will expand to 15,000 units in 2013, with the running rate of 20,000 units to be achieved once the full complement of new models comes on stream.
Asked how far the company could go, Mr McGeown said Great Wall had the scope to climb even higher and challenge the established top-11 car-makers here, but that Ateco would not get carried away at chasing volume without proof it could be sustained.
"It all has to do with the segment you compete in," he said. "Certainly, there's no question that given the right products in the right segments we can go from 20,000 to 30,000, but we're not going to go off on a flurry and get carried away.
"We nominate products that fit and are priced and specified correctly, and want sustainable growth. (Then again), we've achieved 11,000 sales operating primarily with manual transmissions; we've only recently had automatics ..."
Mr McGeown also said to expect the network of 87 dealers would expand as new models arrived.
"When we first started, it was only the early adopters. We started with 44, there was a certain amount of success and we grew fairly rapidly through 87, soon to be 90 and not far from being 100. But we manage it as products come into the market, otherwise you can have too many," he said.
One vehicle Ateco has ruled out is the C20 crossover, a higher-riding, plump-guarded version of the front-drive VX10.
"To us, you start to mix the products up and it becomes more confusing for our network, so we have stuck – despite a load of requests otherwise – to keeping it simple," he said.
This is despite the boom in crossover vehicles sales – especially front-drive ones such as the C20 – as well as the glut of new competitors set to arrive from established brand Nissan (Juke), Ford (EcoSport), Holden (Trax) and Peugeot (2008).

Lifelong Duck hunter, and have hunted private clubs in CA, for 35 yrs. Never hunted in Klamath yet. I have a bunch of mounts and a 4 1/2 yr female lab. A few months ago I had all the honker dekes one could need but had to sell all to get back down to Oregon, from WA to be near my dad. If someone might looking for a hunting partner for the upcoming season, maybe pm me or you can call 360 200 2394.My name is Dan, I'm able to hunt 7 days a week unless I'm working at that time. Not looking to find someone's spots, Christian or no Christian, I'm just looking for a few duck hunting buddies. I grew up on the upper Rogue, and just a few yrs ago owned a new 18ft lowe roughneck with a blind on it.

We have a Rottweiler and I was wondering about bases with breed restrictions. The recruiter told us each base is different and as of right now we aren't planning on living on base but that could change. Getting rid of our dog is not an option. The recruiter said that the bases where Stryker Mechanics mainly operate out of are Ft. Carson, Ft. Bragg, a base in Washington and Ft. Sam. DH wants to go to Ft. Carson or Ft. Bragg...but I'm aware that he can make his wish list but that doesn't mean that's where we'll go. But those are the places the recruiter recommended he put on his "wish list."
I do not live on base but I do not know of any breed restriction at Ft. Bragg. One of my good friends live on base and their neighbor has a Pit so if anything is on a restriction list that would be.
But if you are coming to Ft. Bragg I would definitely suggest checking out off post housing first. BAH here is 900 something and if you/DH are willing to commute there are houses and appartments for rent between $500-$800 dollars in the Harnett County and Lee County areas about 30 to 45 minutes from base on horrible traffic days. Also it is a lot safer and quieter in those areas. Just my $0.02
From my experience I can say RECRUITERS DO NOT ALWAYS KNOW WHAT THEY ARE TALKING ABOUT!!!!!
We were told that our two boxers would not be allowed on base b/c of restrictions, and so we freaked out (not knowing any better) and had to find them a new home. Little did we know, when we got to our first base there were no restrictions and we didn't realize we could live off base. When we were starting out we just wanted to make sure we followed all the rules and were ready for military life, so we did what the recruiter said...bad move!
It really does depend on the base...we lived at Fort Hood almost 2 years ago and there were no restrictions until about 2 months after we moved in...but since we moved in BEFORE the ban, as long as our pitbull was registered with the on post vet and I believe older then 6 months then she was allowed to stay. So yes some people may have breeds on base off the "Restricted List", but they may have lived there BEFORE the ban, or they just "get away with it" lol. We then PCS'd to Fort Carson, where they do have restrictions so now we live OFF base [only 4 miles from the gate, if that]. I would NEVER get rid of her bc of the ban. We've had her almost 6 years!!
Don't take recruiters word for anything. Call the base vet/housing and ask them what the policy is!
Hope this helps...any questions let me know.
KatherineECO:BAH at bragg is $1065 (at least for my DH & he's E-4 just to give you an idea). We live on post & there are people with dogs on post that are on the restriction list. I'm not sure if they can keep the pets once housing finds out what the dog is. You can check off post for housing but DH & I did that before & unless your willin to really commute each day, I suggest living on post. I know lots of people will disagree but the places we checked out (close to base, affordable) were disgusting. We would turn on a street to go look a house for rent & just turn around & leave. I'm sure it's not that bad all over but really look into the area & the pros & cons of on post VS off post.
Bragg was part of the few bases where BAH was decreased from 2010 to 2011. For all new and incoming soldiers it is a different rate E1-E4 is $990, E5 $1041, E6 $1194 and increases from there. It stayed the same for people who were already stationed here.
ETA: She is right. Most off post housing right near base is either insanely expensive or disgusting. What I am referring to will be ether at 15 to 45 minute commute. DH and I personally thought it was worth it for our situation. We live about 22 miles from base. When he is headed to work in the morning it usually only takes him 25 minutes to get there, but if I am going to a Doctors appointment it can take me 45 minutes to get to the gate after dealing with morning school traffic and such.
There definitely are a lot of Pros and Cons as she said, especially to living farther off post you just have to weight those options and see whats right for your family.
First and foremost, DO NOT try to live on post/base with a banned breed. You can be fined and kicked out of housing. When you get evicted from housing you can be denied housing in the future. I know some ppl don't abide by the rules and just because you see a pit(which ppl mistake my american bulldog for, and is one of the most common misidentified dogs) doesnt mean they're doing it illegally.
The link above(sorry if its not a clicky) is still valid. When I registered my furbabies I had to sign a form saying I knew the banned breeds and mine weren't any of the following. As you can see Rotties are banned unless grandfathered in, which wont happen in your case. Good luck and I'm sure you'll find a great place off post. I'd would check out www.ahrn.com for housing.

Bwhahahaa. People are so stupid sometimes. I have a Boxador (Boxer Lab mix in the picture below) that people mistake for Pit. She looks nothing like our actual Pit or any Pit Bull/ AmStaff I have ever seen. Who by the way is one of the sweetest dogs I have ever had, and is literally scared of butterflies.
Ashley858, I have had more than one vet and animal control misidentify my babies. One is an american bulldog and the other is a mutt(DNA testing to prove it)...I cringe when people make assumptions.
Your dog is a cutie, those eyes are gorgeous!
Thank you, she thinks she is a 4lb lap dog. The thing I hate more than people assuming the a dog is part of a specif breed, is people assuming that all dogs of a breed are innately pre-determined to be aggressive.
You may want to look into getting your dog certified as a Therapy Dog. I was talking with the founder of the Netpet.org, Steve Albin about where foster homes are available for dogs for people in the military. He told me about the therapy dog/working dog option. If you get your dog certified as a therapy dog you can legally take your dog with you pretty much anywhere. He suggested this since my dog has some Pit Bull and Chow-Chow in her.
Here is an article on his organization just so you can see it is legit:
And here is a website about Therapy Dogs. you should be able to find out from a local Vetrenarian about Therapy Dog Certification in your local area.
I hope this helps you a little.
The military has gone to privitized housing on a lot of bases and they aren't all run by the same company. So what your recruiter said about things being different from base to base is true.
Some housing communities allow pets, some don't. And then there are restrictions beyond that (usually no more than two pets allowed, and some breed restrictions apply). The truth is, you will just have to research each new area you go to. Even those of us who are seasoned and done several PCSs with animals have to go through the research process on each move.
We have friends in the military with rotties, dobies, and other "breed restricted" dogs. They simply don't live on base. DH has been active duty since 2002 and we have never lived on base. We actually own two homes (that we rent out now) and are currently renting a home ourselves. We prefer the privacy and space of off-base housing.
thanks for all the advice ladies! We've had our Rottie since he was 6 weeks old and he's now 2 yrs. We've had to face situtations in the past when renting, and I'm sure we'll continue too. When my dad was in the AF we had 2 Rotties and they were allowed on base but people have become so ignorant about the so called "aggressive breeds" so I knew things had changed.
And I have actually thought about getting him certified as a Therapy Dog just because of his personality and his loving nature, I truly think he'd be great at it!

Whole Foods Gives Chobani the Boot Over GMO Animal Feed
When Whole Foods opened its first Brooklyn location this week, set above the toxic Superfund site known as the Gowanus Canal, many jokes were made about the grocery store selling vinyl records in addition to groceries.
So indie. Very Brooklyn.
The grocer's newfound hipster cred appears to be extending to the yogurt aisle, where the nation's No. 1 Greek yogurt brand is about to get the boot, making way for more organic and non-GMO products. Starting next year, Whole Foods will no longer stock Chobani products, which are made from the milk of cows fed with genetically modified grain.
What will be filling the shelf space vacated by the totally mainstream yogurt brand? The coolest indie yogurts, naturally.
"As the national demand for Greek yogurt has grown, the number of conventional Greek yogurt options has multiplied," the company said in a statement. "Whole Foods Market challenged its Greek yogurt suppliers to create unique options for shoppers to enjoy—including exclusive flavors, non-GMO options and organic choices."
Which is basically the grocery chain equivalent of Arcade Fire suggesting a dress code for fans at the band's shows. Be more cool, yogurt companies.
Back in March, Whole Foods announced that it would label all GMO products carried at its stores by 2018. Working with partners on verification issues and giving its more than 100,000 suppliers the opportunity (and time) to shift to non-GMO ingredients is a significant undertaking. When the plan was announced, however, Whole Foods made no suggestion that the goal was to push out GMO products, and the three-month update posted to the corporate blog in June focused on planning and process more than anything.
But moving to Brooklyn can change people like that.

Comments about Fostex PM-1 MKII 6.5" Active Nearfield Studio Monitors - Pair:
This pair of monitors is very accurate. I made a final mix the day before they arrived and sent it off... i was tempted to ask for it back after listening to that mix through these new amazing monitors and crying at my failure. Unlike most monitors of this price range, you can hear every subtle frequency transient in the low end, making them incredible for mixing live recordings where low end can be very tricky to equalize; like deciding between how tubby a bass guitar is vs. the frequencly response of the bass drum... if i were to draw a frequency response diagram from my experience of them it would look like this... -----------------
Comments about Fostex PM-1 MKII 6.5" Active Nearfield Studio Monitors - Pair:
I was amazingly surprised when I popped these things into my studio. I run a little demo studio out of my home. They are amazingly clear and accurate. lot's of good solid bottom, a nice smooth mid and crystal clear highs. No noticible notch. Fostex did a great job setting them up. Very open and natural soud and easy to listen to. Plenty of punch and power when the music calls for it. I've changed rooms since the original purchase and I use a seperate eq to maintain flat response from room variations. For the price, they are an awesome deal. Great sound, highly accurate, wonderful lack of presence. I hear the music and not the speaker.
Comments about Fostex PM-1 MKII 6.5" Active Nearfield Studio Monitors - Pair:
See above concerning the volume knob. Dragged their rating down. The "piano-black"
(Fostex's own term) glossy finish is attractive. The sound is even across the sonic spectrum.
It's the usual 20 to 20K performance spec.
Bass is punchy. Not flabby at all. Tight response all frequencies. For mix-downs and mastering
your home-studio projects, I would advise against blasting them at "11". Save that for the
CD release party.
For serious work I would run them at the 50% setting. These things have punch. I think
120 watts to the woofer.
Each monitor has it's own amp. There are others in a pair where one has power and you
run an XLR cord to the other. (which balances the power).
The gain control could have been made larger and easier to see. The manual instructs the user
to set each one at half-way. Well, you better have perfect eyesight and turn the rear of the
speaker box to bright sunlight, or wear reading glasses and use a magnifying glass to see
the microscopic slice of a line in the tiny black peg which serves as a "volume knob".
I would have given the product a 10 rating, but this feature was incredibly annoying. Attn:
Fostex co. consider a better indicator. I'm thinking of daubing white paint in the line which is approx. 2mm- Metric, approx. 1/16th inch.
Seems really solidly built to last. Heavy, approx 28 pounds each.
Comments about Fostex PM-1 MKII 6.5" Active Nearfield Studio Monitors - Pair:
Quality is high. Sound is slightly bright, yet very likeable due to tremendous clarity and resolution. Build quality rocks! The baffle is beautiful and is also 100% defraction free. The actual weight tells you it's solid and is equipped with a well built power supply for the amps. It is excellent as a high resolution hi-fi monitor in a small room. If you add a sub-woofer to take the load of the bass (reproduces lowest octaves while providing filtering of lows to these)you can then use these in even quite large rooms as they will play super loud when not trying to reproduce low bass. In this set-up mode they will amaze you. You'll not believe how loud and unstrained these speakers will play...It totally belies their size! I recommend these without any reservations, especially at their value price. Rock On!
- Poor Sound Quality
- Uneven Output
- Very Little Bass
Best Uses
- Home Studio
Comments about Fostex PM-1 MKII 6.5" Active Nearfield Studio Monitors - Pair:
this product looked great out of the box, but that is where it ended. For the size of the drivers and the box, bass was lacking. The two speakers had at least a 6db difference in volume output which made even trying to do a mix very difficult. I sent them back, and I have to say musician's friend was great to work with. really superior customer service.

US President Barack Obama appealed for calm after an acquittal in the killing of black teenager Trayvon Martin, saying: "We are a nation of laws, and a jury has spoken.''
What began as a confrontation on a rainy February night between a neighbourhood watch volunteer and a teenage boy walking home from a grocery store rapidly turned into a heated and polarising national debate about race, profiling, guns and self-defence.
George Zimmerman, the Florida neighbourhood watch captain who shot and killed 17-year African American high school student Trayvon Martin in a killing that raised major questions about race and gun control in America, was yesterday found not guilty of his murder.
It prompted an outpouring of outrage on twitter and protests around the US including in Washington DC, Chicago, San Francisco and Los Angeles.
Obama: 'Respect call for calm'
Obama, who had spoken emotively on the case before, noting that if he had a son he would have "looked like Trayvon Martin,'' reiterated that the impact of the death went much wider than the Florida town of Sanford.
"The death of Trayvon Martin was a tragedy. Not just for his family, or for any one community, but for America. I know this case has elicited strong passions. And in the wake of the verdict, I know those passions may be running even higher.''
"I now ask every American to respect the call for calm reflection from two parents who lost their young son,'' he said.
He tied the killing of the teenager to the problems surrounding gun use in the United States, an issue on which the president tried but failed to push through new control measures earlier this year.
"We should ask ourselves if we're doing all we can to stem the tide of gun violence that claims too many lives across this country on a daily basis,'' Obama said.
"We should ask ourselves, as individuals and as a society, how we can prevent future tragedies like this. As citizens, that's a job for all of us. That's the way to honor Trayvon Martin.''
Dramatic trial, 16 hours deliberation and not guilty verdict
After a dramatic three-week trial and more than 16 hours of deliberation, the all-woman jury in Sanford, Florida, reached a not guilty verdict after deciding that the 29-year-old had acted in self-defence when he shot and killed Martin.
Zimmerman remained expressionless as the verdict was read out with his family members smiling broadly. The Martin family, who had pushed so publicly for an investigation into their son's death, were not in the court as the verdict was read out.
The judge told Zimmerman he was free to go, telling him that the GPS beacon that had been tracking him while on bail would be switched off as he left the court.
"We're ecstatic with the results," defence lawyer Mark O'Mara said after the verdict. "George Zimmerman was never guilty of anything except protecting himself in self-defence."
Another member of his defence team, Don West, said he was pleased the jury "kept this tragedy from becoming a travesty".
How it unfolded
The shooting in a gated community in a town of 50,000 people 50km north of Orlando, caused a national public outcry last year after the Martin family and civil rights leaders alleged police had failed to properly investigate Zimmerman, who was not arrested until 44 days after the shooting.
The black teenager had been walking to his father's house after buying some sweets at the local shop when he was seen by Zimmerman, who called the police but ignored the orders of police dispatchers not to confront the boy. A fight then ensured during which Zimmerman shot Martin dead.
News of the shooting caused a furore which led to the sacking of Sanford's white police chief, even drawing in President Barack Obama who said that if he had a son "he'd look like Trayvon", sparking a national debate over race relations in America more than 20 years after the infamous beating of Rodney King.
However, as time passed and more details emerged about Zimmerman, whose mother is Hispanic, the racial tensions surrounding the case eased.
The family's demands for a full investigation and trial were met and a new, black police chief, Cecil Smith, was installed in Sanford with a mission to promote even-handed policing.
Martin supporters express anger
Yesterday, supporters of Trayvon Martin's family gathered outside the court to await the verdict expressed anger and disappointment at the outcome.
Bernie de la Rionda, the assistant state attorney who was the chief prosecutor in the case against Zimmerman, said he and his two fellow prosecutors were unhappy about the outcome of the trial.
"I am disappointed, as we are, with the verdict. But we accept it," he said.
"We live in a great country that has a great criminal justice system. It's not perfect, but it is the best in the world Call for calm after not-guilty verdict and we respect the jury's verdict," he said.
Before the verdict both families, civil rights leaders including Jesse Jackson, and local police had all called for a calm response to a case that has riveted America over the last three weeks.
The trial turned on several key defence witnesses who appeared to support Zimmerman's claims that he had acted in self-defence and shot Martin as an act of last resort after the teenager banged his head repeatedly into the concrete pavement, a claim consistent with his head injuries.
In one of the most telling testimonies, forensic pathologist Vincent DiMaio said that examination of the bullet wound had supported Zimmerman's contention that Martin was on top, straddling him during the fight.
Also central to the trial was the question of whether it was Zimmerman or Martin that was heard screaming for help on an emergency call moments before the fatal shot was fired.
Experts from the FBI ruled that with Martin dead, it was impossible to prove scientifically who was screaming.
Among some black residents of Sandford, there was anger and sadness at the verdict.
Community leaders have added their calls for calm.

Day 13 - Arrival in London

Hide lines
So there I am at the Helsinki airport early, which is good. I get another stamp in my passport, tell me how exciting that is. I walk around the airport for a little while, do some duty free shopping - bottle of Baileys the most important purchase there, and then at 1.30pm we finally get to board. So goodbye Finland and hello England. Now let me tell you about the flight. Oh my goodness how much do I despise children. Other than Jasper, Lotus and Slade of course whom I love. To begin with there was a baby, about 6 months maybe who screamed the ENTIRE trip, the trip was just over 3 hours. Then there were a couple of other children who screamed and yelled at each other the whole trip to, not to mention the two little boys who ran up and down the aisle. Yeah I love kids!!!!
Other than that the flight was quite good. We got put into a holding pattern upon arrival into London airspace so we circled for maybe 20 minutes. Finally we landed but then the arrival / departure gate that we were to head to was not cleared so we had to sit on the runway for another 10 minutes. Finally we get to the gate and can now get off the damn plane... Mind you trying to exit Terminal 1 and Heathrow is not the easiest of feats. The walkway near seemed to end, and there were no toilets.... Finally get to the customs / immigration area and I get this really cute officer - finally someone cute. So me being me I unshamefully flirted my way through the entire process. Apparently, so Libbee just told me, I gave the wrong answer to the officer. When he asked where I was staying tonight, I didn't know and he didn't like that, so.... But I got through so all is good.
It was wonderful seeing Libbee, it has been way to long since I have seen her and getting a Libbee hug was exactly what I needed. Mind you I did sprout a tear or 50... Maybe Libbee did too, but that is her story to tell not mine...
How do I explain my thoughts about London, the airport, the tube and the people. Mmmm the airport, I am told that I came into the wrong Terminal, which explains a fair bit, because if this is Heathrow, it is ugly and dirty. The toilets, when I finally found them were dirty and the lights didn't work... I am now getting a little scared, worrying about being pickpocketed. It happens here apparantley... We got this lovely man Steve when trying to buy a tube / bus pass, and he helped a lot. So I got my first Oyster card, rather than getting it for a month, he suggested only getting a prepaid till I get back from Europe trip. Being on the tube was interesting. Libbee mentioned that people don't look at you or speak to you, I thought she was fibbing but no, they are actually not polite, why is it that people are not polite anymore? Between Finland, who pride them selves on their free international education, but don't teach manners, and English people who are just rude, I wanna go home and never leave the house again. The tube was good though, at least now I know how to get around and where Libbee lives compared to the city and Laura etc. Will be quite interesting when I get back from my tour and have to try and get around on my own. Might get lost hahahaha.
I am now sitting here in Libbee's little flat which is so adorable... We were going to go out for dinner this evening but it is cold and wet here so I think we are now ordering pizza and maybe having a Bailey's. I think, I will need an early evening, seeing as I have to be at the hotel by 6am....
So that is me, an new country and tomorrow off to more. YIPPEEE.
You know you love me

How does FDA help consumers when drug shortages happen?
Drug shortages can occur for many reasons, such as 1) manufacturers being unable to obtain raw materials, 2) drug makers having manufacturing problems which result in safety risks for patients and not able to produce more product until the issues are corrected, and 3) business decisions being made by a company to discontinue a drug.
FDA established the Drug Shortage Program to help address shortages of over-the- counter and prescription medications. The ways that FDA can address shortages are:
- Working with firms to resolve manufacturing issues to allow medications to return to the market.
- Speeding up FDA's review process so that new manufacturers interested in making drugs in shortage can supply their products as soon as possible.
- Helping firms with getting new sources of raw material.
When firms decide to discontinue making a drug, this is often due to business reasons. It is important to know that FDA is not able to force a company to continue making a medication. If a product is medically necessary and a shortage will occur due to a company's decision to discontinue a medication, FDA can look for alternate manufacturers and work with the alternate manufacturers to bring the product back to the market.
To inquire about a drug's availability or to report a shortage to FDA, please use the e-mail account firstname.lastname@example.com

Serological markers predict inflammatory bowel disease years before the diagnosis.
Gut. 2012 Jul 26;
Authors: van Schaik FD, Oldenburg B, Hart AR, Siersema PD, Lindgren S, Grip O, Teucher B, Kaaks R, Bergmann MM, Boeing H, Carbonnel F, Jantchou P, Boutron-Ruault MC, Tjønneland A, Olsen A, Crowe FL, Peeters PH, van Oijen MG, Bueno-de-Mesquita HB
ObjectiveAnti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies and anti-Saccharomyces cerevisiae mannan antibodies (ASCAs) have been detected in the serum of patients with ulcerative colitis (UC) and Crohn's disease (CD) and their unaffected family members. The aim of this study was to establish the value of serological markers as predictors of UC and CD.DesignIndividuals who developed CD or UC were identified from the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition (EPIC) study. At recruitment, none of the participants had a diagnosis of CD or UC. For each incident case, two controls were randomly selected matched for centre, date of birth, sex, date of recruitment and time of follow-up. Serum of cases and controls obtained at recruitment were analysed for ASCA IgG, ASCA IgA, perinuclear anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (pANCA), antibodies against Escherichia coli outer membrane porin C (OmpC) and flagellin CBir1. Conditional logistic regression was used to determine risk of CD and UC. Receiver operating characteristic curves were constructed to test accuracy.ResultsA total of 77 individuals were diagnosed with CD and 167 with UC after a mean follow-up of 4.5 (SD 3.2) and 4.4 (SD 3.1) years following blood collection, respectively. Combinations of pANCA, ASCA, anti-CBir1 and anti-OmpC were most accurate in predicting incident CD and UC (area under curve 0.679 and 0.657, respectively). The predictive value of the combination of markers increased when time to diagnosis of CD or UC decreased.ConclusionA panel of serological markers is able to predict development of CD and UC in individuals from a low-risk population.

Slower Growth for Server Shipments
IDC has lopped 4.5 million units off its forecast for the number of x86 servers to ship in the second half of the decade after concluding that virtualisation and multicore processors are cutting into purchases.
That 4.5 million number is a major change - about 10 per cent of the servers the market analysis company had expected would be sold from 2006 to 2010. In addition, IDC trimmed its spending forecast by $2.4bn.
It said: "Overall, x86 [server] shipments that were once projected to increase 61 per cent by 2010 are now facing just 39 per cent growth during that same period."
The reason for the change is that customers are buying fewer, more powerful systems, according to IDC. Virtualisation lets a single system run multiple operating systems simultaneously, while multicore processors amplify the consolidation trend by enabling individual servers to handle more work.
EMC subsidiary VMware leads the market for x86 server virtualisation, which lets a single physical machine house multiple operating systems in compartments called virtual machines. Xen, an open source competitor commercialised by XenSource and others, is now built into the prevailing versions of Linux, Red Hat Enterprise Linux and Novell's Suse Linux Enterprise Server. And Microsoft plans to release its own comparable technology, code-named Viridian, in 2008.
IDC forecast the number of servers used to run virtual machines will increase significantly from 2005 to 2010. In 2010, 1.7 million physical servers will be shipped to run virtual machines - 14.6 per cent of the total shipments compared with 4.5 per cent in 2005.

2006 liberty fuel smell
i have a 2006 liberty. When you start it up after a cold night, it smells like fuel in the cabin and engine compartment. Once it warms up it has no smell of fuel. it has only just started doing this the last few weeks, as the last few weeks the morning temp has been around 0 fahrenheit. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated
Re: 2006 liberty fuel smell
I fixed the problem. It was the high pressure fuel line to the fuel rail. It was leaking at one of the quick releases.:)

My favorite thing about it is being able to relate to all of the congoers. I love how everyone treats one another like they're best friends, even though they've just met!

Dave Allen
Learn about sponsoring this memorial...
Jun. 7, 1936
County Dublin, Ireland
Mar. 10, 2005
Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea
Greater London, England
Comedian. Born David Tynan O'Mahony in Dublin, Ireland, he was the youngest of three sons of Cullen O'Mahony, the general manager of the Irish Times newspaper. Despite his father's professed agnosticism, Allen was educated by the notoriously strict Catholic Christian Brothers. He then started as a clerk at the Irish Independent newspaper, and then for the Drogheda Argus before he moved to London. After changing his surname to Allen for ease of pronunciation, he made his television debut as the host of a BBC talent show, 'New Faces,' in 1959. He then took his show on the road in 1961, touring Britain and France with an little known band called the Beatles. In 1963, he accepted an offer for a talk show with Australia's Channel 9, 'Tonight with Dave Allen' to which he devoted a year before returning to Britain. By 1964 he was appearing on the British Idependant Television network in numerous programs including 'The Blackpool Show', 'Sunday Night at the London Palladium' and 'The Val Doonican Show.' 'The Dave Allen Show' debuted on British television in 1968. In 1970, he appeared in the feature film, 'Squeeze a Flower' which he followed with another self named television series, 'Dave Allen at Large' in 1971. The show ran until 1976 and is where he developed his signature presentation style – delivering from a stool, while nursing a drink. The show's formula of speaking to the audience from his high stool, with breaks for sketches was very successful; but his frequent jokes about religion were often a source of controversy. In the 1980s, he made several shows for Carlton Television. In 1993, he returned to ITV where he starred in 'Dave Allen', which was to be his final television series and after which he moved into semi-retirement. He won a lifetime achievement award from the British Comedy Awards in 1996. He died suddenly and unexpectedly in his sleep at age sixty-eight. He was eulogized by a generation of British comedians to whom he was an inspiration; Allen's closing line was often cited: "Goodnight, thank you, and may your God go with you."

USW announces tuition prices
Even though costs in Higher Education have steadily risen over the past several years, University of the Southwest has maintained its tuition prices without an increase since 2012. Today the University announced that the tuition level will increase modestly.
Tuition for undergraduate students who study on the campus will increase $12 per hour. Housing and food costs for on-campus living on campus will not increase. Consequently, the overall cost to full-time students who live on-campus will increase by less than 2%.
Graduate tuition will increase by $36 per hour. Undergraduate students who take all courses through the USW online program will experience no tuition increase.
"I'm very pleased that USW is able to provide high quality, values based, education in a Christ-centered academic environment at an affordable price. Through careful and frugal management, we are able to keep tuition increases to a minimum," USW's president, Dr. Gary Dill, stated.

Spraying doors with Graco Proshot
I bought a Proshot to spray my interior doors in our new house. Yesterday my dad sprayed seven of the doors. He said it took 2 1/2 gallons for one coat! That is using a 211 tip, BM Satin Impervo Waterborne. He said it took forever because he had to refill the cup so often. I am think he might be spraying too slow. I have watched videos on youtube of people spraying a door in 30 seconds with the proshot. Any thoughts? I have a 411 tip also, should I try that?
If he used that much paint they must be dripping pretty bad!
I don't have that gun, but I just can't see how that much paint could be used unless half ( or more) went into the air.
Spraying takes a bit of training and practice-
Again- i can't understand how you have anything but a mess on your hands, so don't know how to advise.
photos please!
Good Lord! Usually I paint a door with less than a quart of paint no matter what the method.
I could never imagine using that tiny gun with that small a cup to try and paint that many doors. Your going to spend more time cleaning up and filling the cup then painting.
It should only take a couple of seconds to spray one side of a door once.
I have a PS FF and I too do not see how you can use that much material unless your doors are flooded or a lot of material was shot elsewhere. Got any pics?
The 211 would of sprayed a smaller fan than the 411 will, are the doors off the frame? How do you have them staged?
Likely doesn't have anything to do with the excessive consumption but seems to me like a X11 tip is a bit small for latex. I shot the siding with a 415 using Morglo. Was afraid to go much lower than a X13 for fear of clogging. :confused1:

Like everyone else, I raised an eyebrow when I saw the headline trumpeting an 18 percent increase in the number of aggravated assaults in Milwaukee during the first eight months of 2012 compared to the same period last year. We'd rather not think of our society as one that's becoming more and more violent but the numbers don't lie. In fact, the aggravated assault / battery figure was also higher for the same period in 2010 after we saw a slight decline from 2008 to 2009.
Wisconsin's statutes on battery differentiate the penalties for this type of violence based on the severity of the violence. Battery is divided up into "substantial battery" and "aggravated" battery and the devil is in the details when trying to distinguish between causing "great" bodily harm and "substantial" bodily harm.
While it might be a bit difficult to understand all of the differences, you should know that throwing that punch, even while trying to protect someone else who's being attacked, could net you felony charges.
In our firm, we are seeing more substantial injuries resulting from physical violence in many cases and increasing the penalties in the big picture. Authorities in law enforcement and the district attorney's office certainly take this crime very seriously given the nature of the actual injuries involved. Whereas this type of offense might have been discharged years ago as a misdemeanor battery, even if somebody required stitches or lost a tooth, nowadays this same offense is treated as a felony.
Battery is defined as bodily harm enacted on another with intent to cause bodily harm to that person without the consent of the other person. Now, certainly harm comes in degrees. For example, a person could be punched in the arm and call it "harm." Perhaps you could slap someone on the back of the head and it would be considered harm. There's not that high of a threshold to define an actual battery.
People don't realize that if they get into a bar brawl and there's a push or a shove and somebody splits their head open or breaks a tooth, they could be charged with a felony because there is substantial bodily harm. You also have "great" bodily harm, a lesser offense than causing "substantial" bodily harm but is still a felony.
There was also a recent case involving a man who punched an elderly gentleman and it only took that one punch to kill the elderly man. You never know what the end result is going to be and what kind of damage you will do to the other person. Getting involved in pushing during a bar fight could also set you up for criminal charges, misdemeanor or felony charges, depending on the injury.
Never let your anger turn physical because there's never going to be a good end result, especially if there is alcohol involved. If you are involved in a disagreement at a bar, walk away. Nothing good can happen to you if you allow your temper to get the best of you. A person who gets hit in the head will be victimized very quickly.
You could even be trying to help somebody out and wind up getting charged with a crime yourself. For example, I have a friend who recently went to a Green Bay Packer game. His buddy was mistaken as an obnoxious Chicago Bears fan and a guy jumped him and slammed his head into the ground, knocking him out. Another man pulled the other guy off and guess what? The second man wound up getting charged. It's kind of like the football game itself. The referee might not see the initial punch but he almost always sees the retaliation punch.
I'm not saying you shouldn't intervene if you can stop physical violence but you need to know that your act of defending someone else could also put you in line for criminal charges if things spiral out of control. Regrettably, trying to defend someone can fall under the category of "no good deed goes unpunished" if you are not careful with your physical actions.
Bottom line? Stop and think before you shove someone or throw a punch. Criminal charges linger long after reason intervenes and tempers simmer down.

Location description from owner
The Surat Thani Province region
The climate is very pleasant all year round, with temperatures varying between 25 and 34 degrees Celsius.
There are three seasons, warm and dry season from February till May, rainy season from the end of September till November and "cool" season which extends from October till January.
From February till October, the average temperature is from 32 to 38 degrees, but from July till September, there can be some showers, but only for a few hours.
Rainy season often amounts in fact to some "refreshing"showers followed by the return of the sun.
The climate is tropical so very humid all year round, but Samui remains always refreshed by a pleasant sea breeze blowing from the Gulf.
In conclusion, if you love the sun and if you can withstand heights of summer, come from February till May! It is very rare that it rains...
Koh Samui, 280 Km2, is the largest island of the Gulf of Siam, about 1 hour and 20 minutes from Bangkok by plane. It is part of an archipelago of 80 smaller islands of which 6 only are inhabited. It is almost literally an island of coconuts and forested hills, on chalk mountains, culminating at 636 meters. Its beautiful beaches, its jungle, its hills and waterfall create a very changing landscape, rarely found in other islands.
The economy of the island depended mainly, besides fishing, on the culture of coconuts, which are plucked by trained monkeys. Samui export more than 2 millions of coconuts per month.
The first inhabitants of Koh Samui settled about 1 500 years ago. They were first fishermen looking for shelter against the winds in the quiet and protected waters of Bophut bay, in the North of the island. They quickly realized that the waters around the island offered plenty of ink-fishes and all other kinds of sea-food. Also the ground was very fertile. Quickly small villages developed and that is how the population of Samui started to grow.
The story of Samui started to change in the beginning of the 80's, when it was discovered by backpacker-travelers. These brought the creation of small simple bungalow resorts with palm leaves roofs, but the secret could not be kept for long and now the island is fast becoming a resort of international stature. Yet, in spite of the development of tourism, its inhabitants are well determined to preserve its natural charm and exceptional attraction. Samui's best beaches line the northern and eastern coasts, the most popular being Chaweng and Lamai.
Samui has a tropical climate, with an average temperature between 25°C and 34°C. The most important raining period is in November.
Population: 40 000 inhabitants.
Koh Samui Attractions
If you need a break from all that lounging on the beach, there are lots of unusual attractions which make the most of the island's culture and island charm. Forget the theme parks and hi-tech attractions. Instead, try the monkey show or the snake farm, or better still hire a car and go sightseeing.
Buffalo Fighting
If spectator sports are more to your liking how about a bit of buffalo fighting? This local sport was traditionally held as entertainment after the rice harvest but now is a regular gig with sometimes millions of baht changing hands over the winner - and that's no bull!
A good opportunity to see a snapshot of southern Thai life. Lots of excitement.attracting a neighbourhood crowd who delight in a good old dust up. The more aggressive the buffalo the greater the appreciation from the audience. There are several "stadiums" around the island, most being a basic cleared area under the palms with a wall of bamboo matting or coconut leaves to hinder the view of those who haven't paid for a seat. Men pay about 100 Baht, women enter free. The fight ends when one animal runs away, usually well before either animal gets hurt.
Crocodile Farm
A fascinating look at some of Thailand's jaws and claws! They're all here. Siam crocodiles, Caimans, Saltwater crocodiles, snakes, lizards, monkeys and many others. Showtime twice a day 14:00 and 16:30. Located behind the airport and easy to find.
Snake Farm
Some of the most famous scary and poisonous snakes in Asia are goaded into action by experienced snake wranglers, who dodge and weave, duck and dive, as the snakes try to grab their attention. A must-see for almost anyone visiting the island. A ringside view! Also includes displays of centipedes and scorpions, as well as demonstrations of Thai Cock Fighting.
The programs are both informative and entertaining in typical Thai style. Great fun for the entire family. Just make sure your child doesn't bring home any live souvenirs. Follow the road signs to get to their location in Talingnam, south of Nathon. Shows start at 11 am and 2 pm daily.
Monkey Show
Koh Samui is synonymous with coconut trees - there are literally plantations all over the island, and until tourism arrived, coconuts were the main industry here. How do you get at the coconuts? . Enter the monkey, considered as man's best friend, these industrious little animals are greatly prized and give a demonstration of their incredible dexterity (and not just at picking coconuts) in the outdoor theatre. The entertainment also includes performing elephants. Look for the theatre on the main road behind Bophut Village.
Hin Ta/Hin Yai
Samui's phallic rocks are as popular with Thai visitors as foreigners. Meaning Grandfather Rock and Grandmother Rock respectively, in local legend the rocks represent two doomed lovers who drowned themselves in the sea here, because their families disapproved of their relationship.
A large board at the site tells their story in full dramatic detail. The street approaching the rocks is lined with stalls selling a nice range of coconut wood products and garamear - Samui's own glutinous coconut candy, which is rarely available elsewhere on the island. Route 4169, South of Lamai Town.
Sightseeing & Tours
Take a tour, or hire a car around the island and just go exploring. While the coastline offers unusual rock formations and lovely beaches, there are waterfalls and forest off the beaten track in Samui's fascinating interior.
Elephant Trekking
Several companies around the island run elephant ride operations and many can be booked through travel agents
, often in combination with all day tours of the interior. Over fifty elephants call Samui home and all work in the tourist industry. A typical 'trek' lasts between 15 minutes and half an hour and is an excellent way to see the island's jungle clad interior. Some companies take visitors up into the hills for magnificent views over the island, others go through waterfalls, where riders run the risk of receiving a cooling shower. Chaweng Elephant Trekking (Tel. 077 231 210), Living Thailand (Tel. 077 418 680) and Island Safari Co (Tel. 077 230 567) are all recommended. NB: Some companies keep gibbons and other endangered species as pets to entertain visitors - as well as being cruel, this is illegal in Thailand and should not be encouraged.
Samui Aquarium & Zoo
Both the aquarium and the zoo have many of Thailand's tropical favourites above and below the water. Lots of coral fish, huge catfish and several sharks including Leopard and Black Tips Samui's local zoo adjacent to the aquarium, house some south-eastern Asian tigers, parrots, hornbills, sea hawks, eagles or even otters who will perform for you .... if they are in the mood.
You can have your photo taken with the tiger (Mainly to impress your friends) for 100 Baht per person with your camera, or 200 Baht if you borrow the zoo's Polaroid camera. Money goes to the Tiger's Foundation, just to make you feel better. On the way out, don't forget to say "hi" to the birds and monkeys in smaller cages across the parking lot , some of the parrots are quite friendly and their language, as well as their feathers, can be quite colourful. Located in Hua Thanon
Secret Buddha Garden
The secret Buddha Garden was the inspiration of one man who built several statues, temples and waterfalls, in a hidden location high up in the hills of Samui. It's possible to drive to the garden by 4WD vehicle, but probably less hassle to take one of the many jungle tours offered by travel agencies and resorts. Contact a few places to compare prices.
Butterfly Garden
Located in the south of the island, Na Tian Butterfly Garden is a kaleidoscope of colour provided by hundreds of spectacular butterflies. For bug enthusiasts there's also an Insect Museum, featuring rare insects from Thailand and other countries, and a bee house, which allows the visitor to observe the activities of bees. Don't forget your camera!

"One of my favourite holidays ever. The owner make certain of it."
My wife and I stayed in the villa in March and it was amazing. Our last 3 holidays have been Mauritius, the Maldives and Cape Town and this was definitely my favourite. The Villa is situated in the south west of Koh Samui away from the busier and tourist end and its much better for it. It's peaceful and the views from the villa terrace and pool are simply stunning. Every day the scenery changes and you never tire of gazing out to see. The villa itself has everything you need including a good fast broadband and there isn't anything else that we wished for. The owner Sim is one of life's gems. He can't do enough to make sure you have a great stay and will bend over backwards to help you with even the smaller request. There are some great resorts around too if you fancy eating out or just a change of scenery. The best place would be conrads where the staff are really welcoming even if you're not saying at the hotel and the food and views are equal to match. I can't recommend this place enough.
Owner's reply: Hi Nick, Thank you for taking the time out to leave us a review at Villa Taling Ngam, it was a pleasure having both you & Lucy stay with us, We are so pleased that you had an enjoyable stay. Should our pathes cross again, it would be lovely to see you both once more in the future. Best Wishes from Sim, Pum & Jasmine.

Casey Wilson and June Diane Raphael wrote and starred in the low-brow comedy Ass Backwards which premiered at this year's Sundance Film Festival and was acquired in July by Gravitas Ventures. Here's the first trailer for the pic, in which they star as self-proclaimed stylish New Yorkers with a fragile grip on reality who take a road trip back to their hometown to claim the beauty pageant crown that eluded them as children. Alicia Silverstone, Vincent D'Onofrio, Jon Cryer, Brian Geraghty and Bob Odenkirk co-star, and Chris Nelson directed. It's set for a VOD release September 30 and a theatrical rollout November 8.
Hot Trailer: 'Ass Backwards'
28 Comments
This looks like Romy and Michele took a detour and fell off a cliff. Hope it's better than it looks because I will always have a special place in my heart for Alicia (she made my 90s) despite those disgusting bird feeding stories.
I invented Post-It's
This reminds me of "Romy and Michele's High School Reunion" and "The Sweetest Thing."
I think how much you already like Casey Wilson and June Diane Raphael will depend on who likes this movie. I think people who already like what they do and know what to expect will dig it (I love Casey Wilson as Penny on Happy Endings and she looks to be playing a similar type of character in this) but I'm sure there will be some negative reactions from people who aren't familiar with their work.
Personally, I'm a big fan of these two funny women so I can already tell I'm going to love it but I'm sure it won't be for everyone. I'd imagine the (mostly) snooty crowd Sundance might not have been the right audience for a low brow goofball comedy like this.
I'm a fan of hers, too, but she's a bad writer. BRIDE WARS was awful, and I like what she's trying to do, but she's not a sharp enough writer to pull it off. She's a performer, and probably a really funny *person*, and some of those bits will land. But she's not a screenwriter, a good one, anyway, and that matters. Then again, she's better than Liz Meriwether. Google the play that put her on the map — One of the worst reviewed plays The New York Times has ever written about. And BACHELORETTE wasn't very good, so there's no reason they don't deserve a chance with this. I just hope the trailer is not indicative of its quality.
Nothing short of painful. Casey Wilson has a very annoying look-at-me presence.
Finally someone says it. Not sure why there is so much love for these two. I read the script and saw the film: this is perhaps more cring-worthy than bride wars (as hard as that is to imagine).
This has been done already. it was called Young Adult.
The expression works best when it's Bass Ackwards. Not Ass Backwards. They are so dumb they can't even get their own title right. Idiots.
"The expression works best when it's Bass Ackwards. Not Ass Backwards."
I have always known it as "ass backwards."
Saw it at Sundance… One of the worst movies I have ever seen. Rips off several films; scene for scene in some cases.
It looks dreadful beyond all reason. That means it will probably be a big hit.
This is a really, really, really bad trailer. It's a mess of noise, seemingly unrelated incidences and big, unfunny moments; lacks a punchy, coherent throughline, and is just plain headache-inducing. I say that as someone who might still see this, as I like the Romy & Michele stuff, and these performers. But as a trailer, honestly, this is BAD.
Am I old??? Never heard of these women. They def look talented. But I didnt like this film when it was called Night at the Roxbury. I know plot is dif but the 2 demensional characters feel just as sketch comedy etc.
Honestly, this looks pretty typical for a female-scripted comedy.
Yeah, I kinda like female-scripted comedies. But I also like male-scripted comedies. Sometimes, I like Asian-scripted comedies. But I almost never like Latino-scripted comedies. Buddhist-scripted comedies are pretty awesome, but comedies written by the age demographic of 29-to-45 are totally the best. So, yeah, I totally know what you mean.
Isn't this nothing more than Romy & Michelle but under a different title? What junk!
Give me the same thing… only different !
These two are truly awful. Who paid for this POS? Absolutely unwatchable dreck.
soooo then why did you watch it?
So is ANY trailer considered hot now? This looks bad. I like JDR on new girl and sdsvu etc… but can't stand the other one.
That just happened
saw this at Sundance. Let's hope they did a huge re-edit, or even shot some new scenes, 'cause this was painfully unfunny. People walked out.
this movie is so so good. those girls are brilliant. 2 of the funniest women in comedy right now, no question.
Please describe one scene that is not in the trailer to verify that you saw the film because if you really saw it there is no way you would say it is "so, so good".
how do movies like this keep getting made?
Maybe I just have a stupid sense of humor but I thought it looks funny. Yeah it looks a bit dumb, but the kind of dumb I would still laugh at. I'll give it a chance, I've liked these ladies elsewhere.

Disapproving of white urban liberals can be a career for right-leaning sociologists. A decade or two ago, their story was that the American future lay in fast-growing exurban counties, with their cheap land and virtuous Republican voters.
Now that many American cities have become the hot, hot, hot place for jobs and ambitions, the story has to be rewritten.
