With it's poor advertisement and the fact that it came out in the same week as three other wide releases, Dredd bombed its opening weekend and never recovered. Don't let that fool you into thinking that Dredd is a bad movie, Dredd is an awesome action movie and one of my personal favorites of 2012. The Dredd Blu-ray, just like its box office performance, is a little disappointing. The quality and the bonus features are only decent with many missed opportunities and wasted potential.
In the world of Dredd, the United States is a wasteland and there's a city that stretches from Boston to Washington, D.C. called Mega City One which holds 800 million residents. Mega City One is filled with lots of violence with "twelve serious crimes reported every minute. 17,000 per day." There's also a new drug on the scene called "Slo-Mo" which "makes the brain feel as if time is passing at 1% its normal speed." The only police force are the Judges who serve as judge, jury, and executioner. Here we have Judge Dredd (Karl Urban) who is ordered by Chief Judge (Rakie Ayola) to assess a rookie named Cassandra Anderson (Olivia Thirlby) who failed her Judge aptitude test but gets a second chance because she is a very powerful psychic. A multiple homicide is reported at a 200-storey "block" called Peach Trees (that houses 75,000 registered citizens) which Judge Dredd and Cassandra investigate. They learn that this is a message to not mess with the Ma-Ma clan. Judge Dredd and Cassandra investigate and learn of a drug den where they capture a thug named Kay (Wood Harris). Ma-Ma (Lena Headey) finds out about the capture of Kay and gets into the tower's security and seals the building. She then orders Judge Dredd and Cassandra killed, so Dredd and Cassandra have to fight their way to the top of Peach Trees and stop Ma-Ma.
Even you have to admit, Dredd sounds like an awesome movie and the story is surprisingly well put together. Everything flows together nicely and is very well told. The characters make the movie though. Dredd is an absolute badass who you're rooting for the entire time. Which is funny because it's very rare that you love a character that has no emotion or any real "character" to him, but this movie pulls it off nicely. Karl Urban does a great job as Dredd but unfortunately doesn't have that excellent Stallone chin and voice. Rookie Cassandra was a great sidekick who was played very well by Olivia Thirlby who I really hope to see more of because I see potential in her. Lena Headey also plays a great villain as Ma-Ma, which was a nice change seeing a woman as the villain.
Dredd is also a beautiful movie. The directing, sound, and visual effects all blend together well particularly in the action and Slo-Mo scenes. There are many times where I was impressed by the images on screen and makes Dredd one of the prettiest action movies in recent memory. The one thing that I hate about some action scenes in movies is if the director puts the camera too close to the action so you can't tell what's going on. Director Pete Travis pulls the camera back so we can fully admire the beauty of Dredd. The score by Paul Leonard-Morgan was also great but nothing too memorable.
The picture on the movie is great minus the jarring letterbox and some noise. The sound was also great and one of the highlights of the disc. One of the best parts of the Dredd Blu-ray is that the 3D version of the movie arrives on the same disc as the 2D version, so no swapping is required if after your 3D viewing you want to check out some of the bonus features. The 3D version of the movie was very good but nothing too overwhelming. The "Slo-Mo" scenes and a couple of others looked awesome in 3D, but most of the time, you aren't going to be too impressed. If you have a 3DTV, it's worth a viewing.
Dredd on Blu-ray has a few bonus features packed in with all the excellent action. Let's judge each and every one.
Mega-City Masters: 35 Years of Judge Dredd (15 minutes) goes into the Judge Dredd comics (the history, the design, how the series evolved, etc.). It's interesting and I found it very informative as I've never read a Dredd comic before or know anything about the character. It's comprised of interviews from the creators and writers of the comic series, all of which were great. The only thing I felt was missing is a mention of the Judge Dredd movies (both this one and Stallone's Judge Dredd). I felt it would've been very interesting to hear how Stallone's Dredd wasn't faithful to the comics but this one was (or maybe they like Stallone's Dredd). It was certainly a missed opportunity. Overall, this is a neat little bonus feature (that runs at a perfect 15 minutes) if you want to know more about the comics.
Day of Chaos: The Visual Effects of Dredd (16 minutes) delves into (surprise) the special effects of Dredd which include the creation of Mega City One, the Slo-Mo, and Peach Trees. I'm really into this type of stuff and I found it fascinating and answered a couple of questions that I had about the visual effects. One of the best parts about this bonus feature is the un-letterboxed clips of the movie. It really does make a difference in terms of the picture. This is a feature that is definitely worth checking out.
Dredd Featurette (2 minutes) is a very brief look at the movie including interviews from Karl Urban and one of the creators of the comic. They talk about the movie and Karl Urban's portrayal as Dredd. When there isn't interviews playing in the background and all you hear is the music and you see the visuals, it's almost like a trailer of sorts......A GOOD TRAILER. Whoever cut together this featurette should've put together the actual trailer to the movie. They did it right. In the end, it's nothing special but it's only 2 minutes, so you got nothing to lose.
Dredd's Gear (3 minutes) is unfortunately a very short look at Dredd's uniform and the Lawgiver (the coolest gun in the world). I found it very interesting and it's really a shame that it's so short. I want to know more about the electronics in the gun, I wanted more interviews from Olivia Thirlby and Karl Urban, I would've liked more. It's definitely worth checking out even if you don't care that much about the costumes.
The 3rd Dimension ((2 minutes) very quickly goes into the 3D of the movie. It's nothing too interesting and could be skipped if you don't care about bonus features all that much. Welcome to Peach Trees (3 minutes) goes into the look of Peach Trees and what the filmmakers wanted the place to look like. This and The 3rd Dimension are both lackluster bonus features that don't add anything to the other features on the disc.
Dredd Motion Comic Prequel (3 minutes) could've been the standout of the disc but was unfortunately wasted potential. It started going into Ma-Ma's past and the invention of Slo-Mo but then ended. I would've liked to see Ma-Ma rise to the top of Peach Trees and make her little empire. Instead it ended without any mention of Peach Trees and Ma-Ma's rise. A few more minutes and this could've easily been the best bonus feature Dredd has to offer. It's a shame that it didn't rise to the top.
Theatrical Trailer (3 minutes) is the trailer with the music that made me laugh the first time I heard it. The trailer is below if you want to know how you don't start off a trailer. Also From Lionsgate (11 minutes) is a bunch of trailers from Lionsgate's other movies including The Last Stand, Alex Cross, The Cold Light of Day, and other box office failures. There's also a section of the Blu-ray for the DTS-HD Master Audio where you can check to make sure all your speakers are working if you're using a surround sound. Bookmarks are also available.
That's it for the bonus features of Dredd. Excluding the Theatrical Trailer and More From Lionsgate, the bonus features add up to about 40 minutes. That might sound kind of bad but I personally felt that there's a good amount of bonus features with none of them dragging on too long (and quite a few of them coming up short). I wish some of the features were made longer (the Motion Comic and Dredd's Gear in particular) and some of the others were more interesting or possibly even blended into other bonus features (The 3rd Dimension and Welcome to Peach Trees could've been great additions to the Day of Chaos). The lack of a Commentary and Deleted Scenes is a real shame though. It's a decent set of bonus features and will satisfy common moviegoers who loved Dredd.
It was a pain in the butt getting the Dredd Blu-ray but now that I've finally acquired a working copy I can solidly say that it's a good Blu-ray. Not great, but good. Quality wise, the movie looks and sounds great and the 3D copy is even pretty decent. The bonus features is where it's disappointing. It's a shame there's no Commentary or Deleted Scenes and the bonus features we do get range from good to disappointing. If you loved Dredd and are just here for the movie then you will be pleased for the most part. If you love going in-depth in the bonus features, you will find some good material but will find a couple of disappointments.

Spurs' Ginobili Doesn't Mind Being Sixth Man
Posted Jun 9 2007 9:42PM
SAN ANTONIO, June 9 (AP) -- "Here comes Manu!''
Usually heard midway through the first quarter of home games, the refrain that Manu Ginobili is coming off the bench makes San Antonio Spurs fans respond unlike almost any other time during the game.
It also often means great things are about to happen for the Spurs.
"He gives that team a totally different dimension and a totally different look and those are big elements coming off the bench that really help teams win,'' said Cleveland's Daniel Gibson, who has emerged as the Cavaliers' top reserve during these playoffs.
Ginobili scored 16 points in the Spurs' 85-76 victory in Game 1 of the NBA finals. Game 2 is Sunday in San Antonio.
Along with Tim Duncan and Tony Parker, Ginobili is the final piece of the Spurs' top-scoring trio and the team's beloved sixth man, a role he's more than happy to fill.
Spurs coach Gregg Popovich moved Ginobili to the bench midway through the season in hopes of getting more offensive energy from his reserves. That helped the Spurs overcome some midseason struggles and go 23-6 after the All-Star break.
"It hasn't been tough. I took it very lightly since the first moment he told me,'' said Ginobili, in his fifth season with the Spurs. "Not very big changes for me, only the fact of not playing the first 5 minutes.''
The Argentine star was runner-up for the Sixth Man award to the Phoenix Suns' Leandro Barbosa. He started 36 games and played the reserve role for 39.
Among players who came off the bench for a majority of their games during the regular season, Ginobili, with an average of better than 16 points, ranked behind only Barbosa, who averaged about 18.
Ginobili has averaged 16.4 points during the playoffs. He made half of the Spurs' six 3-pointers in 28 minutes Thursday.
"I know that even when I start, I'm not a player that plays 38 to 40 minutes, so my minutes didn't drop,'' Ginobili said. "I still play the last 5 to 6 minutes, and I feel like I'm a very important player in this franchise.''
Ginobili's relaxed attitude about being a reserve stops there. He's known as physical player, even if a bit of a flopper, who called the bloodied and bruised eye he got during the Western Conference semifinals with the Suns "no big deal.''
While Ginobili can be somewhat inconsistent from game-to-game scoring-wise, when he's hot, he's often responsible for big runs and big wins.
In February in Atlanta, Ginobili came off the bench to score 24 consecutive San Antonio points in a 10-minute span of the first half. He finished the night with a season-high 40 points as the Spurs beat the Hawks 103-96.
After he got raked across the eye on a drive to the basket in Game 3 of the series with Phoenix, he went on to score eight of his 24 points in about the next 1 1/2 minutes.
"They taught me to release the reins a bit, and their play, their random play and their aggressiveness, their passion on the court meant an awful lot,'' Popovich said, also referring to Parker.
Popovich called the decision to bring the 29-year-old Ginobili off the bench a "seat-of-the-pants sort of thing.''
"The bench wasn't really producing a whole lot. I thought maybe it would be easier for Michael (Finley) or Brent (Barry) to play with the starting group,'' Popovich said. "And I'm fortunate in that Manu is the kind of guy that obviously cares more about the team. Sure, he'd rather start, but he'll do whatever he's got to do for the team and would take it well and not moan and groan about it.''

Why is the Small Goose Pagoda special?
The Small Goose Pagoda is a typical Buddhist pagoda of tight tiles to the west of the Big Wild Goose Pagoda. This 13-storey and multi-eave brick structure in Xi'an is so elegant and beautiful that almost all the multi-eave pagodas built of stones and bricks followed its model.
The width of the pagoda tapers off from bottom to top, taking on a sleek cone shape. It is called Small Goose Pagoda because it was constructed later and the scale was smaller than that of the Great Goose Pagoda.
Small Goose Pagoda Highlights
Yanta Tower Morning Bell
"Yanta Tower Morning Bell", the 8000 kilogram iron bell made in 1192 (the 3rd year of the Jin Mingchang Era), is 3.55 meters high, its edge diameter is 2.5 meter. Since the Qing Kangxi Era, it has been regarded as one of "Guan zhong ba jing" (the 8 sights inside the pass) for the melody of the bell sound because the monks in the temple beat the bell according not only to the correct time, but also to the tune.

Lady Almina and the Real Downton Abbey
The British period drama 'Downton Abbey' is filmed at Highclere Castle on the Berkshire, Hampshire border in the South of England. The Carnavon family has lived in the castle since 1679. A scriptwriter could not have come up with a story arc more dramatic than the life of the 5th Earl of Carnarvon and his wife Lady Almina. And who better to tell their story these days than Fiona, the current Countess of Carnarvon. Her new book, 'Lady Almina and the Real Downton Abbey: The Lost Legacy of Highclere Castle' tells the story of the castle during the First World War and of her husband's great-grandmother.

Following the publication of the House of Bishops Pastoral Guidance bishops are beginning to ask to meet lesbian and gay clergy in their dioceses. The circumstances vary. One bishop has asked clergy known to be in a civil partnership to a meeting. Others have asked to meet clergy who had informed the bishop of their intention to marry. It is not yet clear what the intention of the bishops is. They may want to express support or they may want to warn and discipline.
Changing Attitude recommends that clergy who are not yet members of a union to consider joining now.
The Revd Dean Henley, Equalities Officer of UNITE Faithworkers' Branch recommends that all those summoned to meetings with their diocesan bishops about their gay marriage plans or for any other reason do not go alone. Always insist on taking a friend or a Union Rep if you are a member.

MENDHAM A borough resident has received a prestigious grant to support his research into the causes and development of a deadly form of skin cancer. Myung K. Shin, a scientist at the Fox Chase Cancer Center in Philadelphia, was named a 2001 Pew Scholar last month and will receive $240,000 over the next f our years to help finance his research work. Shin is using mice to study the significance of pigment cells in the skin, known as melanocytes, in the development of melanoma, a potentially fatal type of skin cancer. Melanocytes protect the skin from the sun's ultraviolet light. Shin was one of only 20 scientists nationally to be named as a 2001 Pew Scholar. "It's a great honor to have been chosen among a small group of young, up- and-coming scientists," said Shin in an interview last Friday.
Shin, 36, lives on Walsingham Road with his wife, Theodora, a doctor at Morristown Memorial Hospital. The couple, who moved to Mendham two years ago, have a 6-month-old daughter, Grace Kay.
Shin began the research project six years ago as a post doctorate fellow at Princeton University. He worked with Shirley Tilghman, who was recently named Princeton's president. Tilghman, a pioneer in mouse genetics, has conducted extensive studies on the development of melanocytes in mice, said Shin.
Leading Cancer Center
Last September, Shin was appointed an associate member of the Fox Chase Cancer Center. He is working in his own laboratory along with two technicians and another post doctorate fellow. Fox Chase Cancer Center, one of the nation's first comprehensive cancer centers, conducts clinical research and has programs for cancer treatment and detection, he said.
Using mice as a modeling system, Shin will make changes in the rodents' genomes, chromosomes with DNA encoding, that will mirror the changes in humans leading to melanoma, he said. Mice are the best models in understanding melanoma progression in humans, he said. An expensive part of the research is maintaining the hundreds of mice during the changes, said Shin.
Shin received his bachelor's degree in biochemistry from Northwestern University in 1987 and a doctorate degree in molecular biology from the University of California, Berkeley, in 1994.
One of the most common types of cancer, melanoma has been on the rise in recent years, said Shin. Statistics show that one in 75 Americans will develop the disease during their lifetime and the five-year survival rate ranges between 5 and 10 percent at the advanced stage of the disease, he said.
"It (melanoma) is occurring more frequently because of our culture with its focus on tanning and sun worshipping," said Shin. "Extensive exposure to the sun is a major reason for this deadly disease."
Through overexposure, the sun's ultraviolet rays damage the DNA in cells which leads to their abnormal growth, said Shin. Much of the skin damage resulting from sun exposure occurs between early childhood and 18-years-old, he said.
Melanoma can be treated through chemotherapy or immunotherapy during the early stages of the illness. Symptoms include abnormal moles on the body with different shapes and colors, he said.
Shin will receive $60,000 under the grant over the next four years. The grant pl aces no restrictions on the type of research a scientist conducts, he said. "These types of grants are critical to the next generation of scientists as research dollars for young investigators can be difficult to obtain," said Anna Marie Skalka, senior vice president of Basic Science at the Fox Chase Center. "The awards are intended to encourage innovation in a scholar's research." The Pew scholars, chosen from prestigious institutions across the country, have shown enormous potential in the field of biomedical research, said Anjou Dar gar, a spokesperson at the Fox Chase Center. The Pew Charitable Trusts is a national philanthropy based in Philadelphia. It supports nonprofit activities in the areas of conservation and the environment, culture, health and human services, and religion, said Dargar.

- Educate yourself about where you spend time outdoors. Natural lands with active recreation often have deer management plans in place that include various hunting schedules. Also, there are state regulated schedules, that vary over the season. Don't be in the right place at the wrong time.
- Wear 'blaze' orange so that you do not surprise hunters, other hikers, horseback riders, or other recreational users of the land. This includes your canine pals. You are wearing orange not because a hunter will mistake you for a deer but making it so that other users of the land (hunters, hikers, horseback riders) are alerted to your presence.
- Most properties where hunting is allowed is done so in an effort to better manage the effect of deer herds on the local region. Over browsing of native flora and automobile accidents are primary reasons for appropriate deer management. Please respect any property closing signs.
- If you notice
irregular activity on a property that you hunt, or hike; contact the
landowner or call for assistance from 911 or the SE PA Game Commission
Game Law/Poaching Violation in PA
· Call 911 to report any incidences, they may direct you to call the PA Game Commission or they will put the call through to the PA Game Commission
· Call the SE Game Commission office: 610-926-3136 to report poaching in progress
· Call the Game Commission Hotline to turn in a poacher: 1-888-742-8001

For the first time a Gallup poll conducted in the US has found a majority in favour of marriage equality. Fifty three per cent of the 1,018 respondents support agreed that gay couples should have the right to marry. Last year, only 44 per cent said they agreed with gay couples marrying.
Forty-five per cent of said gay couples should not be allowed to wed, while two per cent said they did not know.
Republican support remained unchanged on just 28 per cent while Democrat support for the issue increased 13 per cent and independent support rose by 10 per cent.
Seventy per cent of people aged 18 to 34 support gay marriage, although among those over 55 per cent, support dropped to 39 per cent.
Anti-gay campaigner concedes battle against gay marriage is lost
Jim Daly, the chief executive of Focus on the Family, one of America's most prominent anti-gay campaigners has conceded that the battle against gay marriage is being lost. He told World magazine that the majority of those under 30 now support gay marriage.
Focus on the Family backs anti-gay marriage campaigns and lobbies politicians to support "traditional marriage". Daly said: "We're losing on that one, especially among the 20- and 30-somethings: 65 to 70 percent of them favour same-sex marriage. I don't know if that's going to change with a little more age – demographers would say probably not. We've probably lost that. I don't want to be extremist here, but I think we need to start calculating where we are in the culture."
Daly said he had discussed the issue with gay marriage campaigners. "I sat down with one. He said, 'You guys haven't done so well with marriage. Why are you upset about us having a try?' We've got to look at our own house, make sure that our marriages are healthy, that we're being a good witness to the world. Then we can continue to work on defending marriage as best as we can. "
Daly theorised that God was boosting the popularity of gay marriage and polygamy to spur Christians into action and encourage them to end 'easy' divorces. He said: "We've got to look at what God is doing in all of this. . . . Have we done such a poor job with marriage, is He so upset with our mishandling of it in the Christian community, along with our lust of the flesh as a nation, that He is handing us over to this polygamy and same-sex situation in order to, perhaps, drive the Christian community, the remnant, into saying, 'OK, there's no no-fault divorce in our church'?"

|Re: useBean tag
|Fri, 04 Aug 2000 03:10:56 GMT
Yes, the code is ours but you don't have control when you are planning on integration with other products. The idea behind having a long name (that looks like package.class) is that it doesn't pollute the name space of the HttpSession attributes. If we just used names like "customer", then it is quite possible that when integrating with other web-enabled products, we may run into name clashes. This is I have used the big long name "com.foo.beans.CustomerBean". This just so happens to match the qualified package name but it need not - it just needs to be unique. If multiple beans why required of the same class, maybe you could use a naming convention like: "com.foo.beans.ProductBean.lastPurchased" "com.foo.beans.ProductBean.commonPurchase" etc. The idea is that only the bean class knows what it's name is, but by using the qualified class name, it will be unique.

Right: I'm guessing we eventually need a simplistic query optimizer that would choose how to apply a top-level AND'd filtered (or AND NOT, eg for deletions). If the filter is very sparse, it's probably best to use iterator especially if filter is already iterator-friendly, eg SortedVIntList. > At the end of a day, Filter works at API level with DocIdSet, not > DocIdSetIterator.... that would remove constant factor, the question > is this possible to add optional DocIdSet.get(int ) on current API > and use it for some specialized cases like this one. Either add that random-access API, or make a RandomAccessDocIdSet, or... something. Not sure yet. Ideally BooleanQuery (which we should consolidate deletions & top-level filters under) should somehow ask the filter if it's random access, and then drive the matching accordingly. > also, math for conjunctions looks much better in filters I'll test conjunctions too.

- waistline of 40+ inches for men or 35+ inches for women
- high blood pressure, or on blood pressure medication
- high triglycerides
- high blood sugar or type II diabetes
- low levels of HDL (good) cholesterol
ST. LOUIS, Sept. 13, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Metabolic syndrome — a cluster of symptoms including high blood sugar, obesity and cardiovascular problems — has reached epidemic proportions. According to the American Heart Association, 47 million Americans now have metabolic syndrome. The syndrome afflicts 40 percent of people in their sixties and seventies. That number is expected to rise along with our aging population. A recent CDC study published in Pediatrics shows the epidemic isn't limited to older adults either. Obesity in teens has skyrocketed in the past decade, and 23 percent of teens are now classified as diabetic or prediabetic. The symptoms of metabolic syndrome can cause very serious long-term damage to your body — even if you feel fine. "A person with metabolic syndrome is twice as likely to develop heart disease and five times more likely to develop diabetes. Other silent symptoms include eye, kidney and nervous system damage over time," explained Dr. Carl Hastings, chief scientific officer at Reliv International. Could you have metabolic syndrome? Excess weight, particularly around the waistline, is the biggest contributor to metabolic syndrome. Metabolic syndrome typically includes three or more of these symptoms:

The departure of News Corporation stalwart Peter Chernin has created a power vacuum that observers speculate could lead to James Murdoch moving to join his father in the US sooner than many expected.
Chernin, who has run New Corp's Fox film and TV studios and broadcasting business for the past 12 years, and had a total pay package of $29m (£20m) last year, has provided the balancing senior management force in the Murdoch family-dominated business empire.
His power base has been in the US entertainment capital of Los Angeles, home to Fox's film and TV studios. Movie hits on Chernin's watch stretch from Titanic to Sunday night's multi-Oscar winning Slumdog Millionaire – British made, but distributed by Fox Searchlight.
By contrast, News Corp chairman and chief executive Rupert Murdoch works out of the company HQ in New York, the US financial and journalism centre.
Chernin cut his teeth at News Corp after joining in March 1989 at Fox Broadcasting, overseeing production of early Fox shows such as The Simpsons and Beverly Hills 90210.
Ever aware of the likely ultimate outcome of succession management at News Corp, the veteran had often quipped that he was "warming a seat for a Murdoch". That Murdoch, after Rupert's elder son Lachlan left News Corp's senior management to return to Australia in 2005, is widely recognised to be James.
However, the company is sticking to the line that there are no plans for James to relinquish his role running the News Corp Europe and Asia operations. Murdoch's lack of experience across News Corp's US divisions and the fact he has only been in his latest role for little over a year, count against any swift promotion.
Another unknown quantity is whether Elisabeth Murdoch, who runs UK and US TV production operation Shine and has previously worked for BSkyB, may be enticed back to the family business at a later date.
One line of thinking, says Nikki Finke at Deadline Daily, the LA media and entertainment industry blog, is that a "caretaker" could be brought in. Names in the frame in this scenario include insider Chase Carey, the chief executive of News Corp's DirecTV operation, or former Viacom chief executive Tom Freston.
Murdoch senior and Chernin will spend the next four months until the latter departs clarifying reporting lines across the Fox business.
Fox Filmed Entertainment Hollywood studio chairmen Tom Rothman and Jim Gianopulos, and Tony Vinciquerra, the chief executive of Fox Networks Group – News Corp's US TV stations and non-news cable channels business – are expected to assume more direct reporting responsibilities.
Following Chernin's departure Fox News chief Roger Ailes, who technically reported to Chernin but in reality has a direct line to Murdoch, is expected to further cement his position as one of the most powerful News Corp executives.
Murdoch senior has already taken over Chernin's responsibilities at Fox Group, a marked change in strategy from the constant close watch he has had on Dow Jones, the owner of the Wall Street Journal, since acquiring it for $5.6bn in late 2007.
A $6.4bn loss in the last three months of 2008, unveiled earlier this month, reflected News Corp's decision to write down the value of $8.4bn of its assets – including the costly Dow Jones purchase.
Chernin has often been seen as indispensable to the performance of News Corp, running the film and TV business while Rupert took care of the newspapers, yet analysts argue that while the company is facing a downturn his departure is no longer critical.
"I don't think it's a big deal at this point," said Michael Nathanson, an analyst at Sanford C. Bernstein & Company. "If the stock was at $18, and this was before Dow Jones, then it would have been a big deal."

SanDisk partners with NEC in mobile phone market
SanDisk partners with NEC in mobile phone market :
Sandisk Corporation announced that NEC Electronics Corporation has selected the SanDisk iNAND embedded flash drive (EFD) as the solid-state mobile storage solution for a new music phone platform that is based on its latest music playback chip, the AP131 audio processor. This marriage of advanced digital technologies, said the two companies, could give music lovers greatly increased playback times by lowering power consumption up to 85 percent. The AP131-based music phone platform running off the SanDisk iNAND embedded flash drive will be demonstrated at 3GSM World Congress in Hall 7, Booth 7C62 at Spain's Fira de Barcelona exhibition grounds.
SanDisk iNAND Technology
"Combining NEC Electronics' AP131 with SanDisk's high-capacity iNAND allows users to store and listen to more music on their handsets due to the higher capacity iNAND and the extended battery life of the chipset," said Masakazu Yamashina, general manager of the Mobile Systems Division at NEC Electronics. "SanDisk iNAND, with its high-capacity, industry-standard SD interface and ease of integration, aided us in the design of our AP131-based platform."
Future mobile phones
The AP131 audio processor is a very small (6mm x 6mm) music playback chip that allows mobile phones to play and share multiple formats of music files, including SD audio. Compared to conventional mobile phones relying on the host CPU for music playback, the AP131 chip from NEC lowers power consumption during music playback by as much as 85 percent, delivering up to 60 hours of continuous use from a standard 750mAh mobile battery. The AP131 chip with SanDisk iNAND embedded flash drive (EFD) will be offered to handset manufacturers for inclusion in future mobile phones.
New Music Phone platform
"Allowing mobile phone users to enjoy music on their phones without running down the battery is an impressive feat for this little chip from NEC Electronics," said David Tolub, vice president and co-manager of SanDisk's Mobile Handset Vendor division. "By enabling users to enjoy up to 60 hours of music on a single battery charge, owners of AP131-based music phones are sure to benefit from the abundant capacity offered by our iNAND EFD." ased on the leading industry-standard SD interface, iNAND is a reliable, high-capacity, high-performance NAND flash storage device. iNAND facilitates lower integration efforts and seamless access to the most cost-effective high-capacity multi-level cell (MLC) NAND flash technology available. EE Times recently named the iNAND EFD as an "Ultimate Product of the Year" finalist for its third Annual Creativity in Electronics (ACE) Award.
SanDisk iNAND - Mobile TV support
SanDisk iNAND is designed to support mobile TV, multimedia downloading and other storage-hungry applications on portable systems such as mobile handsets, digital audio/MP3 players, gaming applications, personal media players, PDAs and music phones. According to analyst firm iSuppli, music-player enabled mobile phones now are driving competitive positioning in the wireless handset market. Music phone shipments are estimated to exceed 300 million units in 2006. Full track music delivered to these handsets is expected to drive the mobile music market across all categories to more than $15 billion by 2010.
About SanDisk - Inventor of flash storage cards
SanDisk is the original inventor of flash storage cards and is the world's largest supplier of flash data storage card products using its patented, high-density flash memory and controller technology. SanDisk is headquartered in Milpitas, California, and has operations worldwide, with more than half its sales outside the USA.

It's usually more cost-effective and certainly less stressful to hold on to decent tenants rather than try to find new ones, and even though the rental market is buoyant I'm not confident I'll be able to re-let my flat any time soon - because it's in Stockwell...
This south London suburb should be a great place to live and a hot spot for property investors. Admittedly it's scruffy, but it's close to the city centre with fantastic transport links and terraces of beautiful Victorian houses. It's close to the trendy shops and bars on Clapham High Street, not far from the Common and, for cricket fans, the Oval is just down the road.
Hell, it's even got a gastropub recommended by leading food critic Jay Rayner. Celebs including Joanna Lumley and Will Self live in Stockwell. However, so do lots of lowlifes, druggies and street gangs and last month there was another ride-by shooting around there, the second this year. Some poor guy was gunned down on the pavement just up the road from my flat by two men on a motorbike.
Oh, damn it, keeping the bad news quiet isn't an option
I suppose it's possible people flat-hunting in the area won't have heard about the shooting, but I bet they'll stumble across the news before committing to a property. Google "Stockwell" and there it is, the first page is littered with stories about the latest shock-horror crime.
Headlines that scream: 'Stockwell motorbike ride-by shooting' are bound to put people off renting there, at least for the time being, so I just hope my tenant will stick around until all the hoo-ha has faded.
The first I knew of the incident was when I was trying to get to the flat one lunchtime to meet a handyman. One of the cords on a sash window had snapped and I'd found this guy who had promised to replace it for just £30, which was about half the price of the other quotes I'd received.
Anyway, my drive to the flat took longer than usual due to the fact that the main road had been sealed off by the crime squad and a policeman directing traffic away from the scene told me, far too casually for my liking, that someone had been shot. For this reason, I wasn't too worried when the handyman didn't show up at the appointed time.
Probably just stuck in traffic, I thought. When more than an hour ticked by and he hadn't got in touch, I was fuming, especially as he wasn't answering his mobile and he didn't respond to my texts.
When I'd given up hope and gone back to work I got a text from the guy saying he hadn't been able get to the flat because it was crawling with police and he'd been stopped by a policeman, who claimed he didn't have any insurance. 'It's a mix-up,' he wrote, and asked if I'd like to rearrange the appointment.
As I write I've found another handyman - via the website my builder - who is supposed to be meeting me at the flat in an hour. He's slightly more expensive than the last one, but I don't care: if he does a good job I hope it will give my tenant one less reason to move.

Series: Concepts in Sedimentology and Paleontology Volume: 9
Society for Sedimentary Geology
The stratigraphic concept of a depositional sequence was introduced to the scientific literature by Exxon Production Research Company (EPRco) in the late 70s, building on the shoulders of giants like Chamberlain, Sloss and Wheeler. Since then, several papers compared and contrasted the original Exxon (and later, ExxonMobil) sequence-stratigraphic school with other approaches to subdivide the geologic record, as well as, debating the ExxonMobil model validity and impact on the community. At its core, the ExxonMobil "model" is really a stratigraphic interpretation method, which was never explicitly documented in the literature. The objective of this book is to present the ExxonMobil sequence stratigraphic method in its current form in an attempt to clarify its usage and application in diverse geologic data and depositional environments. This publication is the result of more than 3 decades of sequence stratigraphy research and application at EPRco and at the ExxonMobil Upstream Research Company (URC). The objective is to emphasize the most important aspects of Sequence Stratigraphy – a method to guide geologic interpretation of stratigraphic data (seismic profiles, well-logs, cores and outcrops) across scales (from local to regional and global) and depositional environments (from continental to deep marine).

He has a lengthy history of successfully representing victims who have experienced serious and catastrophic injuries because of another's wrongful actions. You may be eligible to receive your loss of income, hospital bills paid, and pain and suffering if you are a victim of a wrongful action.

The Bachelorette's Andi Dorfman and her fiancé Josh are officially done.
Bachelorette Andi Dorfman and her fiancé, Josh Murray, have mutually called it quits. We were just as shocked as you since just last week they were live on the red carpet of The Bachelor premiere talking about their wedding date, holding each other and looking quite in love!
"After several months of being engaged and working on our relationship, we have decided that it's best for both of us to go our separate ways," said Dorfman, 27, and Murray, 30. "We are very sad that it has come to this point, but this is what's best for both of us individually."
The statement also said that, "We will continue to be good friends and have nothing but great things to say about each other and wish each other the best."
We were all shocked when Andi chose Josh, to be honest. We seriously thought she would have chosen Nick Viall - even he was blindsided! Andi also revealed during the show that Josh is the type of guy she always goes for and it never works out.
Well, she was right...
During the After the Final Rose special, Nick revealed live that he and Andi had "made love" during their fantasy suite overnight date.
Needless to say, this split has shocked many since they always looked so in love on camera and in front of reporters. They last said that their biggest plan was to, "make a little home in Atlanta and figure it out there."
Well, another Bachelor/Bachelorette couple has split... hopefully there's hope for new Bachelor Chris Soules in his search for love. Watch the new season on ABC on Monday nights.

Will Muschamp Ranked Number One
- Updated: April 23, 2014
Florida Gators head football coach Will Muschamp, the man who single-handedly has changed the Gators' fight chant himself, is ranked #1 in the college football head coach hot seat rankings, according to a nationally known website.
The Gators fight chant used to be, "It's great…to be…a Florida Gator." After Florida's disastrous 4-8 record last season, the chant is now, thanks to Will Muschamp, "It's great…to be…a four and eighter."
Muschamp isn't alone when it comes to being on the hot seat. Two of his SEC brethren are also in the top six. Alabama head coach Nick Saban checks in at number five and Arkansas head coach Bret Bielema is number six.
Granted, Saban being on the list is a little crazy based on his success, but aren't Alabama football fans a LOT crazy? If Auburn beats Alabama again in 2014, I'd be more than a little scared if I was a Toomer's Corner tree, wouldn't you?
The website that has Muschamp number one on in its hot seat rankings, Coacheshotseat.com, has been around for years and is looked to by many college football fans to find out who the next coaches are who may be in the unemployment line.
Although, you don't have to be an expert in analyzing the effectiveness of head football coaches to figure out that Muschamp needs to be high on every list that involves college football coaches that may be fired soon.

News: Man Leaps To Death In Mall After Girlfriend Won't Stop Christmas Shopping
I get this. I really do. From Yahoo. Link from
Man jumps to death after girlfriend insists on shopping
A man jumped to his death in a shopping mall in China after a spat with his girlfriend, who insisted they continue shopping, UK newspaper Daily Mail reported.
Tao Hsiao, 38, wanted to go home following his girlfriend's 5-hour shopping spree at the Golden Eagle Shopping Complex in the city of Xuzhou but when she insisted they go to another shop, he committed suicide, reports said.
An eye witness at the mall said: "He told her she already had enough shoes, more shoes that she could wear in a lifetime and it was pointless buying any more.
"She started shouting at him accusing him of being a skinflint and of spoiling Christmas, it was a really heated argument."
The spate ended when the man threw down the shopping bags he was carrying and jumped seven stories down, toppling over Christmas decorations before hitting the floor.
Emergency services arrived soon but Tao did not survive the severe impact of the fall
A shopping spokesman said: 'He actually landed on one of the stalls below and then fell to the floor so although the store was damaged it meant he didn't hit anybody.
"This is a tragic incident, but this time of year can be very stressful for many people."

Academy Award winning actor Denzel Washington is a true conservative at heart.
He just can't admit it due to working in Hollywood.
So, he does it subtly.
Check it out…
From DW:
Advertisement – Article Continues Below
During a roundtable interview for The Hollywood Reporter, actor Denzel Washington was asked about his worst jobs. He replied:
"I was a garbage man…you get eight hours of work, but you can do it in three. So you can go home as soon as you finish. Post office, you get three hours of work, and you make it last eight. I did both. I liked being a garbage man better."
Then Washington made a salient point about the film and television industry:
"They weren't bad jobs. Just like people say: 'Oh, the difficulty of making a movie.' I'm like, listen, send your son to Iraq–that's difficult. It's just a movie. It's like, relax. I don't play that precious nonsense. It's like, oh, a movie. Get outta here. Your son got shot in the face? That's difficult. Making a movie is a luxury; it's a gift. It's an opportunity, and most importantly, it's a gift. Obviously, everybody here is talented enough to do that, but don't get it twisted. It's just a movie. It ain't that big a deal."
It's important to analyze what Washington said. There are those in the film and television industry who act as if their job is the most important in the world, and there are those outside the industry who deride the work of actors, often claiming they "play pretend like a 6-year-old for a living." Neither is correct.
Acting is not an "easy" job. It requires talent and many hours of work–that is, if you even get a job at all. Acting can also be an incredibly demoralizing career. Facing personal rejection on a daily basis leads many actors to quit after several years, and hundreds of unsuccessful auditions.
Perhaps more critically, film and television serve an important purpose in a healthy society. Movies and TV act as a platform for issues many Americans may not even think about. They also have the ability to change viewers' perspectives. After seeing "American Sniper" or "Lone Survivor," someone who has an unfavorable view of those in the military may come to see the humanity of those who serve. Similarly, someone who sees Clint Eastwood in "True Crime" might leave the theater with a different opinion of the death penalty than when they entered.
