Uncyclopedia:Pee Review/Middler Bowling
From Uncyclopedia, the content-free encyclopedia
edit Middler Bowling
Alrighty, this is only my third article, and I still haven't figured out pictures, but I feel that all in all I am improving greatly. This particular article is, like I said in the article, almost entirely fact, which normally automatically makes it un-funny, but...well I'll let you be the judge of that.
|A big mug o' reviewin' strength tea? Why, that must mean this article
is being reviewed by:
UU - natter
(While you're welcome to review it as well, you might like to consider helping someone else instead).
(Also, if the review hasn't been finished within 24 hours of this tag appearing, feel free to remove it or clout UU athwart the ear'ole).
I got this - anything rather than sit through "I'm A Celeb"... --UU - natter 22:13, Nov 23
|Uhh, I really hate to discourage someone starting out with a low score, but on the other hand, I don't want to mislead you. This isn't funny, I'm afraid, and there's no way I can sugar-coat that. There are a few reasons for this, so let's take a quick look:
1. It feels cliquey. Right away, we're in a miniscule town, and referring to the local school. Most readers will have clicked on the random page button by this point - it feels like it's going to be random schoolcruft that only those who attend the place will get, and you've lost most readers.
2. The writing is confused. To me, there are jumps of logic in here - it feels like you're skipping explanation and entire sentences to get to the point you want to make. Problem is, what's in your head doesn't get translated when you do that. It took me 3 reads to properly understand that you're talking about one person launching themselves into a crowd of others in bowling stylee. That's kind of an amusing idea, I guess, but it almost gets lost. You need to change your approach a little here. Explain the essence of the thing right at the start, then explain how it came about. Forget the facts - we're not interested in those here, just concentrate on teasing any funny moments you can find out of it.
3. There's not much to it. Yup, it's short. You can stretch out here - explain it properly and enjoy yourself while doing so. Possibly add more ideas, such as bonus point scoring, fictitious legendary players or incidents, plans for expansion, leagues, legendary plays... That's off the top of my head, I'm sure there are better ideas, but hopefully you get the picture. Expand what you have so it makes more sense, and add more.
There are 3 more reasons, and they correspond to the other 3 boxes, so let's go there, shall we?
|As I said above, the idea itself is kind of amusing, but you don't really expand on it at all. It sounds like your aim is to explain how it came to be, and the explanation of what it is is almost an afterthought. The preamble, though, is the problem - as I said, it comes across as vanity about your school, and will put people off. The bit that has the most potential - the actual bowling - is all but overlooked. You need to change this. Strong articles come from a strong concept, and knowing which the funniest aspects of it are. So have more of a think about how this idea could make people laugh, and think less about facts.
(That doesn't mean make it random, by the way, discarding facts doesn't mean introducing space-llamas, laser beams, Chuck fuckin' Norris and the like, it just means not worrying about sticking to the straight and narrow. A good read of HTBFANJS will explain it better than I can here).
|Prose and formatting:
|Hmm, well I've already covered my main problem with this above - it feels like it's missing bits all over the place. But there are typos ("prodogy"? "pressent"?) too may red links, and it feels a little sparse. Adding more content will help, as will the next section. But to be positive, there are no real problems with the formatting, and I've seen far worse, so you get an average mark here.
|There are no images. This doesn't help your article look inviting, and it helps it look short and uninteresting. So add some. It should be easy to dig up a bowling picture and add a caption about imagining replacing the ball with a kid, then the pins with other kids, and so forth. That would be the bare minimum you could do, but it would be a start. Image request is around - see if anyone there can knock up something more appropriate, or spend some time on Google image search, Flickr or any other image searches, see what you can find. But add pics.
|Averaged, as per always when I have nothing else to say here.
|Final Score:
|Oh dear, that's not a good score, is it? I really do hate to say it, but this does need a lot of work. But, I have given plenty of advice on how to do that, and I'd hope that if you follow at least some of it, you'll make significant improvements. Remember: concentrate on what's funny about it, and make sure you write it in a way that people who aren't familiar with the concept (like me) would have no trouble following. If you want me to have another look at any point to see if it flows better, just give me a shout on my talk page.
Finally, on a more positive note: like the username - one of the better ones I've seen in a little while!
Finally finally, remember: this in only my opinion, others are always available. And good luck!

Lzzy Hale and Eric Church Rock the CMT Awards [Video]
The other night, Lzzy Hale from Halestorm hit the stage with Eric Church at the CMTs for a loud version of "That's Damn Rock N Roll". It's also come out that she's doing some shows with Eric Church on his tour this summer.
Country music has swerved more and more toward the rock side of things over the last few decades, and some country stars put on bigger rock shows than some rock bands! This ain't your daddy's country music anymore. Hell, your parents probably can't even tell the difference anymore!
Together, Lzzy and Eric really rock this song! But honestly, what do you think of Eric Church as a rocker? Is he "rock" enough for you?

Week 3: Fantasy Football Rankings
Before I dump a bunch of projections on the Fantasy world in Scout for the daily games, I thought it was important to explain my thought process and goal with this information.
The first goal is to put each offense in a fair structure to determine playing time for each team. This information is based previous results while being geared to the natural outcomes of the games as far as time of possession and points spread. If a team is expected to win big, they naturally should have a higher volume of running plays. If they are expected to get drilled, they will run less with more passes flying in the air. Ideally, a successful Fantasy owner that can predict different outcomes should have an edge in some area. If two teams play at a slow pace while running the ball, they will attempt fewer plays. The reverse is also true.
The difference in winning or losing in Fantasy football in season long games and daily comes down to be plays and events (TDs). Therefore, when predicting outcomes, placing TDs is the key to the high and low rankings of many players. I don't believe it is fair to the customer base at Scout for me to make wild predictions in the projections based on my feeling as I know I can be wrong just as much as the next guy. My goal is to give a fair TD grade to all players based on previous success and their opponents. If a player has a history of scoring about eight TDs per game, he will be rated in most weeks with a half of a TD. If the matchup looks unfavorable, I may drop him to 25 percent while raising his value in a favorable matchup. It is important to be consistent with this thought process throughout the player pool to deliver a fair medium of projections. When viewing the rankings by position, a Fantasy owner will see that a half of a TD (three Fantasy points) may move up or down many players multiple spots at their position in the ranking.
Once I do my initial rankings on Tuesday, I will walk my way through the each position to do my weekly daily write ups. Within each player's profile, I will find reasons to improve a player's value or possibly devalue some players. Most of the player information is fluid all week so the early released projections could change drastically by the weekend if multiple players go down with injuries. By the end of the week, Fantasy owners will have a feel for the players I like or possibly don't like. I will do a second update late Friday that will be released on Saturday. I'm really not in a position to be in the box on Sunday as I'm a Fantasy owner as well, and I'll need to manage my teams in the heat of the battle.
For any of us to be better Fantasy owners, we have to be able to intake a ton of information and make good decisions to have success in Fantasy. I believe the key is seeing game models leading to a wide range of possible projections. It would be a great idea for the Scout and its users to develop a relationship where we think through these ideas and thought processes to deliver some out of the box projections later in the week. Within each game, I can increase the time of possession for one team to predict more runs. I could also do the reverse and turn a game into a shootout where both teams thrown a ton of passes.
The Scout team has plenty of people with long histories in Fantasy football. Each and every one has an opinion and reason for their decision making. The final rankings we ship for a public view beyond my projections is a group effort. My projections are just a starting point with the team adding where they see possible flaws. They will also take a position on a couple of players they believe will make an impact that week. As in anything, passion drives us, but we made a better decision when we leave our heart on the table.
Note: The spreadsheet's appearance varies by device and browser. Due to the size and dimensions of the projections, it may be best to download the file. We recommend using Google Docs, Microsoft Excel or any spreadsheet-compatible app/program to view.

Shakespeare Electronic Conference, Vol. 3, No. 71. Thursday, 26 Mar 1992.
Date: Mon, 23 Mar 1992 17:45:12 -0500 (EST)
Subject: 3.0067 "Misconceptions" Continued
Comment: RE: SHK 3.0067 "Misconceptions" Continued
Coleridge proclaimed that Shakespeare's judgment was commensurate with
his genius. Perhaps he would not have made his point so emphatically,
had he not reason to believe that the dramatist's judgment had been disparaged
both by other dramatists, and by holders of various anti-theatrical prejudices.
I might suggest that it was in the area of dramaturgy that Shakespeare's
judgment was most disparaged by what Coleridge described as a "pedantry
that arraigned the eagle because it had not the dimensions of a swan."
Certainly, Coleridge's predecessors, I would name Dryden and Morgann with
reverence, gave us responses to Shakespeare's plays from which we still
can learn. The disputed point in my review of the Halletts' admirable
book on Shakespeare's dramaturgy is simply that the playwright had been
so taken to task as a playwright--and for so many years--that there is
a good deal of value in a study of the dramaturgy. We have our own anti-
theatrical prejudices, just as our forbears did. The Halletts' book, and
books like it, can serve as a useful corrective against the notion that
Shakespeare's dramaturgy deserves arraignment. Like it or not, that notion
took root, as did many important and valuable ideas about Shakespeare,
during the later seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. If I have given
the impression that we are better informed than our predecessors, I apologize.

"Paris makes you want to live forever." That's what my husband said as we walked the streets of the City of Lights. In Paris, you never want your time to end. It sweeps you up in its arms like a dancer and twirls you around, dizzying you with its lights, smells, sights and touch. In a moment, you feel you're a part of it, like a stranger who becomes your best friend. The historical splendor of the stones and steel is as welcoming as a soft bed.
Time in Paris will be dramatic, unforgettable and exhilarating. The stylish people, the dreamy food and the fragrant air blend together in what becomes your own uniquely perfect taste of Paris.
Like all travels, our experience was different from the experiences of others who have visited longer, speak the language better and know more of its secrets. Hundreds of books can describe in detail the sites worth visiting. But in Paris, the experience is about you - and that's something you can't find in the travel books.
There's nothing like waking up in Paris. Savor the delectable bread, fresh butter, strong coffee, sweet fruit and scrumptious brioche for breakfast. Wear good walking shoes, pack a detailed map, grab a couple of euros for bus fare and you're out for the day.
The stately and serene city with a quiet elegance calls out to you to explore, drink in the culture and discover a gentler way of being.
With a relaxed, yet efficient pace, the center of the city is about living and reflecting, embracing who you are and letting it all just be. I didn't see glamour; I saw style, a joie de vivre unlike anywhere else. Spend a couple hours eating ice cream and drinking coffee at one of the ubiquitous outdoor cafes (Les Editeurs!), and watch Paris pass by.
In the height of summer, the sun doesn't set until 9:45 p.m. The sky was still a rich blue at 10:30 p.m. as many sat down to their evening meals.
It's as if Parisians manage to squeeze out every scrap of the day to live - even postponing the night to embrace the day. Rest is not as important as relaxing and enjoying yourself.
Paris radiates a tantalizing mix of old and new. But unlike our culture where age is ignored and destroyed, in Paris, age is revered, like respected elders. It's ever-changing yet stays the same. Antique museums and churches stand proudly amid dazzlingly new buildings such as the modern art museum Centre Pompidou, with its external stairs and Tour Montparnesse, a solitary skyscraper that towers above the skyline like a giant. People rode the Velib rental bicycles everywhere, even in the middle of traffic alongside the swift Smart Cars and motorcycles. Cell phone cameras snapped shots of the centuries-old Arc de Triomphe, Mona Lisa and the Champs-Elysees.
Our theme for traveling was given to us by a waiter's question when I ordered water: "Gaz ou sans gaz?" I didn't understand, so he repeated slowly in clear English, "Bubbles or no bubbles?" Time in Paris can indeed have bubbles or no bubbles. You can look at Paris, or you can see Paris.
Of course, Paris's famous treasures - the Eiffel Tower, the Louvre, Notre Dame, and the Seine - are incapable of being ignored.
It can be a bit of a challenge to sift away the grainy sand of the novelty shops, polyester T-shirts, and the glowing, plastic statues of the Eiffel Tower to preserve and admire their majestic splendor. Certainly, no trip to Paris would be complete without admiring these jewels of the city.
But look past these obvious sites and see other, just as remarkable treasures hidden in plain sight: centuries-old restaurants, a medieval museum, a Holocaust Memorial buried in the earth behind Notre Dame, young lovers lounging in Jardin des Tuileries.
You can spend a fortune or not. You can enjoy a scrumptious lemon tart at the Brasserie Balzar, or stop in at a grocery and buy a loaf of bread, some fruit, a bottle of wine, and relax at one of the countless parks that punctuate Paris' streets like Morse code.
You can eat at a touristy bistro with great views of Notre Dame or the Eiffel Tour, or you can dine in a musty restaurant, where hearty stews are prepared in centuries-old kettles.
You'll be eating closely with others, much closer than we do in the states. It feels awkward at first, but then you'll meet charming locals like the retired navy officer we met at the The Crémerie-Restaurant Polidor, who wondered how we found such a local haunt.
You might sit next to a trio of friends speaking French on your left, and a couple on a first date speaking German on your right.
Indeed, people are close in Paris. The intimate, cozy streets lined with shops, booksellers, antique dealers and hundreds of brasseries speak to Europeans' knack for embracing small spaces. The people get close to each other, basking in the sun with their shoes off in a park on their lunch hour.
We stumbled upon Parisians playing "beach" volleyball on the lawn of the Hotel de Ville (City Hall) barefoot on tons of imported sand.
Certainly there's attitude - every place has its own. You can dismiss Paris and notice only the curt waiters, but you also can walk late at night and feel safe among the locals.
You can complain about the long lines and expensive tickets, or you can wander into an open-door church and breathe the rich smell of the antique wood and marvel at its spiritual grandeur.
Paris has gotten a bad rap lately. But we found none of the stereotypical mix of superiority and animosity. Parisians want you to enjoy their city.
You don't have to be fluent in French. Learn a few phrases, and most locals are willing to meet you halfway to bridge the language barrier.
The small rooms and small beds are dissimilar to U.S. hotels, evidence of Europeans' ease at living in small spaces. But Americans can easily find comfortable accommodations with modern bathrooms. You won't spend much time in the room anyway, as Paris beckons.
Pausing to rest one afternoon, I marveled at watching a rerun of "The Simpsons" - Homer doesn't sound any smarter speaking French.
When you leave, you're sure you'll come back to Paris' welcoming arms. But as the months and years pass, its fond memory grows poignant, like a lover lost. But you can still taste it.
Who knows if we'll return?
In any case, Paris will always be smiling at us, twinkling, with a wink for good measure.

text: ISLAMABAD - Political parties have expressed mixed reaction over Pakistan Tehrik-e-Insaf's show on Sunday wherein the PTI managed to attract huge crowd to protest alleged rigging in the May 11, 2013 general election.A few politicians appreciated Imran for fighting against the rigging and have urged him to take his fight to its logical end.Nadeem Afzal Chan, senior leader of Pakistan People Party (PPP), admired Imran Khan's efforts for exposing rigging in general election for the first time in the history of Pakistan. He said that Imran was getting appreciation from different segments of the society, which believe in democracy. He said that it is general perception in the society that Imran raised the issue of rigging, organised a rally and registered protest against the rigging at the first anniversary of May 11, 2013 election. Imran has taken the issue of four constituencies, including the constituencies of Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif, Speaker Nation Assembly Sardar Ayaz Sadiq and Federal Minister For Railways Khawaja Saad Rafique, to the election tribunals and if PTI wins the legal battle in any of these constituencies then there will be a question mark on other constituencies as well. He appreciated Imran for pulling huge crowd on Sunday. Chan was of the view that that Benazir Bhutto, former prime minister, was the only leader who raised voice against the rigging throughout her political career but media did not take serious notice of rigging at that time.Senior PML-N leader Saddique-ul-Farooq reacting on the PTI chief's speech said that Imran is afraid of the steps taken by the federal and Punjab governments to control energy crisis and terrorism. He said that Pakistan is on the right path and economic condition of the country is getting better due to the vibrant policies of the incumbent government. He said the PTI has no future and feels threatened from the PML-N governments' steps. Imran is just overcoming his party's failure through such rallies, he added.Talking to The Nation Haji Adeel, senior vice president of Awami National Party (ANP), criticised the PTI chairman's speech and said the people of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa are waiting for Imran Khan to inform them about one year performance of his party. He said Imran has not informed the masses about situation in the KP province after election and he should speak truth in his rallies. He said that PTI could not fulfil the promises made in its election manifesto about controlling corruption and holding local bodies elections within 90 days after coming to power. The PTI has not created jobs for youth and has not managed to decrease the electricity loadshedding.Adeel said that Imran, Canadian national Tahirul Qadri and Jamaat-e-Islami addressed rallies on the same day. He asked who managed these rallies and protests in different cities of the country. He said the PTI has failed to deliver and Imran should start development projects and provide economic opportunities to the youth of KP.Jamaat-e-Islami leader Liaquat Baloch said that Imran has taken a good start by launching a movement against election rigging and he should continue it. Baloch said it is the right of opposition to stage protest against wrong policies of the government.Agencies add: Federal Information Minister Pervaiz Rashid snubbed PTI chief Imran Khan over his claim that the police on Punjab created problems for his party's workers."TV cameras and screens provide evidence to the fact that no one created any hurdle in the procession of Imran Khan, otherwise any hurdle by the administration could not escape from the eye of camera," he said in a statement.Pervaiz Rashid said the people will only believe him, if he builds a new KP first.The minister said "If Imran takes responsibility of working on the project of metro bus, the govt will offer him 8 billion rupees.PML-Q chief Ch Shujat Hussain fully supported the mission of Shaikhul Islam Dr Tahirul Qadri of changing the system and of Tehrik-e-Insaf chief's against rigging. In a statement, he said Dr Tahirul Qadri while addressing grand gatherings announced the mission for changing the system whereas we were entangled in Article 6 of the Constitution, Dr Qadri has mentioned more than 30 articles of the Constitution which were regarding welfare and well-being of the people and the fundamental rights of the poor but these were being violated.Shujat said further that we fully support the mission against rigging out of several things pinpointed by Imran Khan while addressing a very big public meeting in Islamabad and stand with him.This news was published in The Nation newspaper.

Washington, D.C. – Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid spoke on the Senate floor to mark the second anniversary of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act. Below are his remarks as prepared for delivery:
Two years ago tomorrow, President Obama signed the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act into law.
It was the greatest single step in generations toward ensuring access to affordable, quality healthcare for every American – regardless of where they live or how much money they make.
Millions of Americans have already felt the benefits of this law.
Seniors are saving money on their prescriptions and checkups.
Insurance companies can no longer set arbitrary lifetime caps on benefits, putting millions of Americans one car accident or heart attack away from bankruptcy.
Children can no longer be denied insurance because they have a preexisting condition, a protection that will soon extend to all Americans.
And in two shorts years, virtually every man, woman and child in America will have access to health insurance they can afford and the vital care they need.
No longer will hundreds of millions of Americans live in fear of losing their insurance because they lose their job.
And no longer will tens of millions more rely on emergency room care – or go without care entirely – because they have no insurance at all.
Unfortunately, Republicans continue to target the rights and benefits guaranteed under this law.
If Republicans have their way, insurance companies will once again be allowed to deny care to a sick child because he or she has asthma or diabetes.
In Nevada, thousands of children with preexisting conditions would once again be at the whim of insurance companies that care more about making money than about making people better.
If Republicans have their way, young adults just out of college will be kicked off their parents' insurance plans.
Almost 23,000 young adults in Nevada would once again have to defer their dreams to take jobs that offer health insurance – or else risk going without care.
If Republicans have their way, seniors will pay more for prescriptions and checkups.
More than 230,000 Nevada seniors would once again be forced to pay for wellness visits, cancer screenings and other preventive services.
And tens of thousands of seniors, who saved $12 million on prescription drugs last year, will once again be forced to choose between buying food and buying medicine.
If Republicans have their way, taxes will increase for small businesses. And so will the deficit.
Repealing health care reform would add $1.5 trillion to the federal debt.
But when Democrats undertook healthcare reform, it wasn't just about saving money – it was about saving lives.
And while the numbers I've just discussed are very important, there is one number that matters more than all the others: 45,000.
That is the number of Americans who die every year because they lack health insurance.
That doesn't include the tens of thousands more who are sick or dying because they have health insurance, but still can't afford the care they need.
After the rest of the Affordable Care Act has taken effect over the next two years, no American will have to bear what President Lyndon Johnson called "the injustice which denies the miracle of healing to the old and to the poor."
President Johnson knew that living in a country with the best medical care in the world doesn't matter if you can't access that care.
That's why, almost 47 years ago, he signed Medicare into law.
On that day in July, President Johnson celebrated an American tradition that "calls upon us never to be indifferent toward despair. It commands us never to turn away from helplessness. It directs us never to ignore or to spurn those who suffer untended in a land that is bursting with abundance."
I am pleased to say the Affordable Care Act continues that tradition.
This law makes certain that the richest nation in the world never again turns its back on the despair, helplessness and suffering of the least among us.
And it guarantees that no insurance company will ever again put a price tag on a human life.

Classic Cars
The phrase "classic cars" generally conjures a red Ford Mustang convertible cruising Main Street or perhaps a powder-blue Chevy Bel Air idling at a drive-in. But classic cars are hardly unique to the United States. Owners of Porsche Speedsters and Maserati Spyders have their own claims to the phrase, as do people who drive Jaguars, Ferraris, and Mercedes Benzes.
Still, few sounds are as intoxicating as the rumble of a Pontiac GTO, the snarl of a Corvette, the throaty purr of a Ford Fairlane. Drivers of a certain age go for Chrysler Imperials and Hudson Hornets, while graduates gravitate to Alfa Romeos or Thunderbirds. And for families? Ditch that minivan and get yourself a Ford or Chevrolet station wagon from the 1930s or 1940s. After all, who needs fancy air bags when the outsides of your ride are paneled with real wood.

Point of flare—the last 5 seconds
Greasing it on the runway can be done with more frequency.
By Nihad Daidzic
Bombardier Learjet 45 lands on Rwy 23 at FNC (Funchal, Madeira, Portugal). Touchdown accuracy is critical on slippery runways and during LAHSO operations.
I was flying as a passenger recently on an Airbus A340. The trip was uneventful and we arrived on time after a 10-hr transatlantic flight. However, something happened during landing that prompted me to write this article.
I have been doing research on landing dynamics and touchdown control and the A340 landing at ORD (O'Hare, Chicago IL) was a textbook case of what I am about to write.
This is what happened. From what I could judge through my passenger window, the pilot flying the airplane started normal flare at 35–45 ft gear height. Then, when we were very close to the ground, the pilot suddenly pitched up some more, likely in an attempt to arrest the descent rate and cushion touchdown.
Did it seem like the right thing to do? What actually happened is that we touched down quite hard, bounced and ended up several feet in the air, floated for another long 4 seconds and then touched down again with no further bouncing. The nose gear was lowered well past the 3000-ft marker.
The subsequent hard braking and noisy maximum thrust reversers proved that the flightcrew was taking stopping efforts very seriously, even on a long, dry ORD runway—and the passengers were hanging uncomfortably in their seat belts for the next 15 seconds.
An overlooked phenomenon
To me this seemed like a model case of adverse elevator effect (AEE) or reverse elevator response (also known as negative-altitude response)—a phenomenon almost completely forgotten, and, to the best of my knowledge, never mentioned in any flight training or line flying environment.
A typical landing, in which the pilot is trying to "feel" for the runway and "grease" it in a near-tangential touchdown, consumes a lot of runway. And, although such touchdowns may be smooth and pleasing to the passengers, the subsequent frantic braking certainly is not.
Touching down, without bouncing, at the proper runway point is essential for landings on contaminated runways and/or during land-and-hold-short operations (LAHSO).
Schematic of landing flare maneuver. The airplane does not actually follow the idealized curved flare but, due to AEE, follows the real flare curve. Angles and distances are highly exaggerated for better visual representation.
There are so many "adverse" effects facing pilots while controlling airplanes. Every fixed-wing pilot has experienced adverse yaw, while fewer understand the adverse aileron effect. As a matter of fact, the traditional airplane flight controls are all wrong—or at least their initial response is.
For a conventionally configured airplane with a tail elevator, in order to pitch up, an up elevator movement is required to create downward force on the tail. That additional tail-down force will create torque about the lateral axis and pitch the nose up.
Accordingly, that would increase the angle of attack (AOA) and coefficient of lift, increase lift and induce temporary vertical acceleration to change the flight trajectory in the vertical plane.
However, what's really happening on the short time scale is quite different. The initially unbalanced downward force on the tail will actually first accelerate the airplane downward. This is AEE. The reason why it is often called negative-altitude response is that the initial reaction to pull-up will be the opposite—downward acceleration, increasing descent rate, and loss of altitude (going below glideslope).
This is AEE at its best—and it is real! Stability augmentation systems (SAS) that introduce additional pitch (rate) damping may alter aircraft altitude and lag response, but they cannot eliminate it.
Some may think that AEE is an obscure academic phenomenon that does not affect real airplanes. In reality, one can observe its effect on every takeoff. During the takeoff rotation, additional downward force is created on the tail to rotate the airplane nose upward and the airplane momentarily becomes heavier.
Dissecting the flare/touchdown
Response of Boeing 747-100 to step pull-up maneuver. Initially, the airplane will accelerate downward, ROD will increase by 120 fpm (2 fps) and 1.6 sec will elapse before it regains the glidepath (albeit somewhat lower).
It is helpful to dissect the flare and touchdown maneuver. In the figure above, we show the schematics of the flare (roundout). Typically, we think of the flare as a continuously smooth and curved vertical path which starts with the pilot pulling back on the yoke/stick. In reality, it is more complicated than that.
Due to the AEE, the airplane will initially accelerate downward, increase its rate of descent (ROD) and steepen the glidepath. So the real vertical trajectory looks more like the blue dashed line than the "ideal" flare curve. In addition, one can see why late flare might be a bad idea (red-dashed line)—which is what very likely happened in the aforementioned A340 landing.
It may sometimes be better to accept the existing ROD rather than try to pitch up when too close to the ground, as that will only accelerate the airplane CG downward. Pushing the yoke forward might be a better course of action in such cases.
If this seems unnatural, remember that so was learning to push the yoke forward when the nose dropped in stall.

Release Notes: Minor framing bugs that affected reception of consecutive frames have been fixed. Sample code has been added for an analog input node using pic16f876.
Release Notes: The PIC stack was completely rewritten (it should now run in any 14-bit PIC with Timer0 and external INT support because it don't use the hardware USART anymore). The framing method was changed to a time-based one instead of the previous 9th-bit-based method. Support was added for device profiles and multicast addressing by device profile. Schematics and code for a fully YASP-compliant rs232 adapter are included, and the PIC stack license was changed to LGPL.
Release Notes: The meaning of the "type" field was changed to be more generic. The "set_short_address" command was removed from the protocol stack, and short addresses must be defined by each node. The idle time before TX was reduced from 22 to 11 bits, and the TX-reply-without-wait-for-idle behavior was removed from the protocol. Support for long addresses was completed, and an IDLE flag was added to YASP_STATE. Alerts for tables crossing page borders and little code optimizations were made.

UN adopts review of New Zealand's human rights record
United Nations adopts review of New Zealand's human rights record
The Human Rights Commission has welcomed news that the United Nations Human Rights Council has adopted the second review of New Zealand's human rights record.
"New Zealand has a high realisation of human rights but this doesn't happen by chance. High level engagement with NGOs and our efforts to reduce violence, promote diversity and improve the quality of life of our most vulnerable has been recognised by the UN Human Rights Council," said Chief Human Rights Commissioner David Rutherford.
'We can be confident but not complacent. We jealously guard our nation's high human rights record by constantly striving to improve it. We do this by working with and connecting those with human rights responsibilities – in large part Government and business - with NGOs.
Engaging across sectors ensures the realisation of human rights for New Zealanders is genuine, ongoing and amongst the best in the world."
Reducing violence and
abuse, particularly as they impact on women and children,
strengthening children's rights, reducing inequalities,
responding to the aftermath of the Canterbury earthquakes
and advancing indigenous rights for tangata whenua Maori are
key areas for improvement, Mr Rutherford said.
The State (New Zealand) accepted 121 recommendations and rejected 34 of the UN States' Universal Periodic Review's (UPR) recommendations.
Mr Rutherford said the New Zealand Government had acknowledged that some issues raised by the Human Rights Commission and NGOs in their UPR submissions were not reflected in the UN States' recommendations, for example issues around legal abortion and the rights relating to sexual orientation, gender identity and intersex people.
"We intend to follow up on these issues separately as part of our commitment to ongoing engagement with civil society on the UPR."
It is the Human Rights Commission's task now to coordinate the development of New Zealand's Second National Plan of Action for human rights.
"The aim of that work will be to produce an actionable and measurable plan to address the better protection of human dignity and better realisation of human rights in New Zealand," Mr Rutherford said.
Every four
years the human rights records of all UN member states are
reviewed by other States as part of the Universal Periodic
Review (UPR). New Zealand's second cycle of the UPR was
completed in May 2014 when the Government on behalf of New
Zealand accepted 121 of the 155 recommendations made by
other States.
New Zealand will report back on progress in four years.

Serena breaks a sweat, earns final
NEW YORK -- It was almost as if, up 6-0, 1-0 in her US Open semifinal Friday against Li Na and riding a 24-game streak that included her quarterfinal bagel, Serena Williams needed a little drama.
But after allowing the tournament's fifth seed and fellow 31-year-old to hold in the second game of the second set, to break her in the next game to take a 2-1 lead, and then get off to a 40-0 lead in the third game, that was quite enough for the defending champ.
Perhaps Williams remembered that the only time Li had beaten her in their previous nine matches, Li had also dropped the first set 6-0. Or maybe Williams recalled that she has lost here only nine times in 79 matches, and lost only four times this year in 70 matches.
Williams won 10 of the next 13 points to break back and then hold serve to regain the lead at 3-2. She then rode the new burst of momentum to break Li once more and eventually close out the victory 6-0, 6-3, setting up a much-anticipated rematch of last year's Open final against Victoria Azarenka.
"Just to be able to defend a title for once would be really awesome," said Williams, who is going for her fifth Open title. "I have done so well here the past few times I have played, just getting to the semis or getting to the finals. It's been really, really exciting, so I'm really happy that I have been able to just consistently do well here."
Li was not exactly a semifinal patsy. Summoning a will worthy of a Grand Slam semifinal but certainly not shocking for the 2011 French Open champion, Li fought off six match points on her serve and down 5-2, before holding in a nearly 14-minute game.
Just as impressive was Williams' effort in trying to break before closing out the match on serve in the next game.
"I think Li Na may have been a little off, but I think it was because I started out so well and then she may have not played her best," said Williams, who has dropped just 16 games through six matches here, the fewest games she has ever lost entering a grand slam final. "But I think she played well. I thought towards the end, a very quality match."
Li, who admitted to nerves in her quarterfinal match, said she felt similarly Friday.
"I should not be nervous because it's not my first time to play the semifinals," Li said. "But when I walked on court, I was feeling the court was so big. It felt like a football [field]. To Serena, it was table tennis. I could not focus."
In the end, they gave the 22,498 fans in Arthur Ashe Stadium and those at home some competitive, if not exactly dramatic, tennis. And playing the Superwoman role to the hilt, Serena did a quick change afterward and took the court for a semifinal doubles match with sister Venus (they lost in straight sets to Andrea Hlavackova and Lucie Hradecka).
In advancing to her 21st Grand Slam final and attempting to win her fifth US Open title, Williams won 85 percent of her first serves in the first set compared to 43 percent for Li, who had come into the match leading all women with 29 aces.
It was a gap that closed only slightly in the second and a stat that does not bode well for Azarenka, who continued to struggle with her serve Friday.
"I know her game as well as she knows mine," Williams said. "She knows what I do great, what I do bad, and what I can do better. I know the same thing. At this point, it's just all about just playing some tennis now."

Avid readers, you know we like Plymouth's GTX. We get a lot of them through here, and with good reason -they're cool, interesting, powerful, they look great…and we keep digging up the good ones! Take this car, for example: Clean Arizona sheet metal, brilliant red paint, an all new interior and clean details, and best of all, it's a true 440, 4 speed, Dana 60 car…how could we resist? More importantly, how can YOU resist??
Here's the original fender tag broken down:
CAR: Plymouth GTX 2 Door Hardtop
ENGINE: 440cid 4-bbl HP V8
TRANSMISSION: 4-Speed Manual Floor Shift
TIRES: F70x14 Red Sidewall
BUILD DATE: June 21, 1968.
AXLE: 3.54 Rear Axle Ratio (Dana 60), Sure Grip
INTERIOR: S6R Sport Trim Grade, Vinyl Bucket Seats, Red Interior.
PAINT: PP1 Performance Red Paint.
OTHER: Burgundy Metallic Upper Door Frame Color.
25: Drip Rail Moldings
78: Wheel Lip Moldings
A1: 26in Radiator
H1: Power Brakes
R8: AM/FM Radio
T7: Tachometer
Y6: Black Vinyl Top
b4: Bucket Seats
k7: Passenger Outside Manual Mirror
m6: Driver's Outside Remote Operated Mirror
Start outside. The paint is blindingly red, flat and smooth. In GM land the paint work would be referred to as a "body on" job – the interior came out, the motor and transmission were pulled, the glass all came out and all of the jambs were finished to better than new, but the clean undercarriage was left untouched and original. The factory undercoating is in great shape underneath, so why disturb it? We like cars you can drive! As far as trim goes, it's all polished original stuff, and if it was chrome it was replaced or re-plated. New door handles, a new antenna, new locks, re-chromed bumpers, highly polished and dent-free window moldings, a new windshield, restored taillights and finish panel, new lenses and more. New chrome road wheels holding new radial redlines and a slick new black vinyl top complete the exterior with style!
Hop inside. New black Legendary upholstery on new foam means you'll be comfortable on long trips. It also gives you time to look around at all the other restored or new components in here – the door panels, armrest bases, armrest pads, door handles, carpet, headliner, visors and the floor mats are all new, while the gauges, dash, steering column, steering wheel and all mechanical bits have been carefully restored. BE/A provided the gauge lens and bezel, Real Time Engineering expertly restored the original tach and our shop painstakingly restored the original switch panel. Notice the gorgeous center console, with brand new console top plates/hardware, and a new shifter ball. Does it get any better? We want you to drive the car – you might as well be comfortable (and well informed) while doing it!
Peek underneath at the road trip-ready undercarriage. The front end's nice and tight, the brakes are adjusted right and the exhaust system with FlowMasters plays one heck of a soundtrack. We scraped a 1×2″ section of the undercoating away to see what it's like underneath, and we were as pleased as you will be. That original sheet metal from stem to stern is CLEAN -the product of its Arizona home before landing in Ohio for its restoration. A new clutch and Hurst shifter on the date coded 18 spline A833 4 speed transmission make changing gears a pleasure while the original DANA 60 with 3.54 gears and a Sure Grip out back can take all the abuse you can throw at it!
Under the hood you'll find some serious attention to detail. The engine compartment and underside of the hood are loaded with clear for an unreal shine, as is the motor itself! The original air cleaner covers a brand new Edelbrock carburetor bolted to the rebuilt, warranty replacement engine. All new date coded hoses and wires are present, and all ancillary devices such as the alternator, power steering and other systems appear better than new. A new washer fluid reservoir, pump and lines are on the passenger side while a new Turbo Start group 27 battery, correct hold down and new battery cables are on the left. The correct Glen-Ray radiators topped by the correct cap, the right ballast resistor and date coded voltage regulator sit next to the rebuilt wiper motor, new wiring ties everything together – no stones left unturned here!
Time to step up to GTX- '68 cars are wicked quick and are the last of the understated B bodies. And unless you can afford a HEMI which you probably won't drive, a 440, 4 Speed, Dana 60 car in red is as good as it gets for the performance minded out there. Gorgeous in the sun and sultry at night this upscale beast runs with the best of 'em. With excellent paint, thorough execution and attention to detail, a fully rebuilt drive-train and 100 percent original sheet-metal, this is one to hold on to, whether you're into cruising or investing!

About Me
I've recently updated my portfolio to show the Photo Retouching and Manipulations that I've been doing. I'm focusing on this, despite doing some photography on the side. I'm really interested in working with any new photographers, designers, etc that are looking for a bit of work to clean things up.
I am available for retouching, poster design, advertisement design, website design, and other needs.

Need help first time
Need help first time
Jan 23, 2013 at 2:47am UTC
First time in C++ need some help on an assignment NOT LOOKING FOR ANYONE TO DO MY WORK FOR ME just need help or examples on what to do thank you the assignmen is below
Observe the formula: degrees C = 5(F - 32)/9Next we can convert this formula so that it can be written in a formthat it can becomputed by a C++ program which we can develop. For example,/The followoing program computes degrees centigrade# include <iostream> //Directives for cin, cout, etc, using namespace std; // uses cin and cout in a standard way int main() { double F, C; //Here, I am delaring thevariables, F and C //before they used bythe program and I am //telling thecompiler that they will contain decimal // type data by usng'double before I declare the // variables cout<<"Please enter a degree Fahrenheit /n"; cin>> F; C = (5*(F - 32))/9 cout<<"degrees C=";C //centigrades return 0;}
Given: Interest =
PrincipalxRate x Time
Write a C++ program to compute the Interest
Principal= 16,000
Time = 12 months
Enter the values via the keyboard

What exactly do you need help on?
At least make an attempt to make the program, and we can help you with your errors.

Well i dont have access to a computer to make the program im using my android to use the net but I wanted to write the program thats what I need help with.. im not sure how its just my first week and im still waiting for the books in the mail
Jan 23, 2013 at 3:58am UTC
Well i dont have access to a computer to make the program
lol thats kinda a prerequisite.
Jan 23, 2013 at 4:03am UTC
Yea I understand its a prerequisite im working on it but for the moment I cant I would like to start out by being able to understand and write some c++ starting with the assignment I have above.. can anyone please help?
Jan 23, 2013 at 4:07am UTC
Well what do you know so far? Is there a particular part your stuck on in your program? For example maybe your stuck on the math, or you're just forgetting a semicolon. What exactly don't you get?
Oh BTW you can write the program on a phone as long as there is a text editor on it (ie. notepad), although using a compiler on a computer is way better because it catches most of your mistakes.
Jan 23, 2013 at 4:10am UTC
Jan 23, 2013 at 6:04am UTC
Oo..ok I didnt know there was a way to do it on Your android thanks for the link..for your qustion I really dont know much im a newbie all the way what I know is maybe how to set something up with the cin, cout just I guess like 5 percent of basic c++
How do I write a c++ program to compute the interest
Jan 23, 2013 at 6:34am UTC
There's a tutorial on this website..
To write those programs you only need to understand how to declare and assign variables, use mathematical operators, and cin and cout.
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
int main() {
float deg_f, deg_c;
cout << "Enter temp in F: ";
cin >> deg_f;
deg_c = // YOU DO THE MATH HERE ;
cout << "\nTemp in C = " << deg_c << "\n";
return 0;
That could be the structure of the program, a kind of basic way to make it.
Read about variable assignment and mathematical operators. The interest program would be similar.

Ok... ill look for the tutorial I understand part of what your saying where I get stuck at is the math part it confuses me...in the book I have it explains sort of what you just said but what im looking for is a more detailed example and what about the bottom part (p×r×t) am I looking for the I terest or am I doing the example C = (5*(F - 32))/9 im going to download the android app for the compiler so how would I write this out is it how it is above ^
And this part here contains what
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
int main()
{float deg_f, deg_c;
Jan 23, 2013 at 7:15am UTC
So just bought the compiler for android from the link above... a little help on how to use it also and answer to my question above thank you
Sorry just a real noob but learning
Jan 23, 2013 at 4:09pm UTC
lets go line by line
#include <iostream> // this includes the header file or whatever for iostream and allows you to use the cin and cout functions and other stuff
using namespace std; // this is optional, is the namespace for c++ std library.. I have seen lots of people instead of using this you can prefix your commands with std:: (e.g. "std::cout << string;") but that looks messy and I'm still not sure why they do it so just use "using namespace std;" then you won't have to worry about it
int main() // this is the entry point for a regular c++ program.. no matter what functions come before or after in the source, the main() func will be the first function called when program is executed.. as with any declaration of a function you must specify a return var type (int in this case, void may work too) the name of the function (main in this case, but for other functions any valid identifier can be used) then declare any other variables passed to the function in the parentheses. We're not using that in the main function so we just say "int main()". Once the function is declared, you use the squiggly brackets {} to list statements to be executed in order within the function. All statements must be separated by a semicolon ";". The program should terminate at the end of the main function. (thats what return does)
now for the stuff within the {}:
float deg_f, deg_c;
// this statement declares two floating point (allows any number of decimal places) variables (after re-reading your problem, you may wish to use "double" instead of "float", the difference is size) deg_f and deg_c which are the same as your F and C you could name them that if you wanted to. The important thing is: variable type then identifier, identifier.. semicolon";"
Any valid identifier will suffice I just like the format I used.. your professor might find it a lil strange so either of these lines can be used equivalently: (as long as you call the vars with the same name you give them in the declaration)
float deg_f, deg_c;
double F,C; //either one works.
now since you say you are familiar with c in and out, lets skip to the math bit.. to assign a value to a variable, start a statement like this:
deg_c =
anything after the "=" sign and before a ";" semicolon will be evaluated and assigned to the variable. (numbers are literal constants and get handled just like numbers should)
e.g: "deg_c = (5*(deg_f - 32)/9);"
This statement will, in compliance with order of operations, subtract 32 from deg_f, multiply by 5/9, and assign the value to deg_c, which can then be streamed to cout to display in the window like so:
cout << "Temp in C: " << deg_c << "\n";
Finally once we are all done with the important stuff, its time to close the program.
return 0;
So, this statement will end the main function. It actually does all kinds of cool stuff with error codes with a nonzero argument and shit but that's not important right now. Depending on software stuff I don't understand, your console should but MAY not pause and wait for a key to be pressed to close the window. Some folks may find that they run a program like this and the window immediately closes after execution (not letting them read the results of the program execution) if thats the case for you, we'll need to add a little function to pause, but that really shouldn't be necessary.
So that's pretty much it. Make sure your {} brackets are placed properly, and all statements end with a ";" (the #include statement doesn't need a semicolon, it is a preprocessor directive and is read as the entire line). Remember, with the exception of // comments and "#" preprocessor commands, the compiler ignores things like spaces, new lines, tabs.. Those formatting things are just to make the code aesthetically pleasing and easy to work with. The things that really determine the structure of a program are the control structure brackets {} and semicolons ";" between statements. These will probably be your most common errors at first so look out for lines with no ";"!
As far as how to use your compiler.. I can tell you how to write the code but you're going to have to figure out your software I dunno anything about it. Use your help files. Btw, everything I covered here can also be found in these tutorials:
I highly recommend you look through that stuff before posting any more questions. These should be the first things you learn when using C++.
Jan 24, 2013 at 1:08am UTC
you must specify a return var type (int in this case,
void may work too
This is a big NO NO, void main() is Illegal in C++, it may have worked in C, but in C++ the assembler translation for void main() is very different from that of int main() which can lead to unnoticeable errors with your program, which go along with not having a return value as it is often necessary for correct debugging to notice if main returned a non-zero or zero value. It is a bad habit that some C programmers use. Never Ever Use void main()

John Carpenter's Starman
1985 (1998) - Columbia/Tristar Home Video
review by Todd Doogan, special to
The Digital Bits
Film Rating: B+
You couldn't sum it better, than John Carpenter meets
ET: The Extra-Terrestrial
. Jeff Bridges plays an alien trying to get home, while being chased by black helicopters, deer slaying hicks and the wife of the dead man he's masquerading as.
Disc Ratings (Video/Audio/Extras): B+/B+/C
There's a trailer. The disc sounds great. But the thing that makes the movie for me, is the end sequence, when the mothership comes down. It's so clear and beautiful, that I gave my VHS copy to a friend - I don't need it anymore. This DVD is quite beautiful.
Overall Rating: B+
The most mainstream of all Carpenter's movies. It's touching, full of life affirmation and has a nice love story. Carpenter handled the film well.
Specs and Features
115 mins, PG, letterboxed widescreen (2.35:1), 16x9 enhanced, pan & scan, dual-sided, singled-layered, Amaray keep case packaging, theatrical trailer, film-themed menus, scene access (28 chapters), languages: English, Spanish & French (DD 2.0), subtitles: English, Spanish and French, Close Captioned
Bottom line
For Carpenter fans, this is a must own. I'd also recommend it to my sci-fi buddies out there. It looks great, and the effects are nicely preserved throughout the entire DVD. Like I said, this is a beautiful disc.

Husband-and-wife team Eric and Carol Hochstadt have volunteered for the Humane Society of Utah since 2009. Always walking dogs both big and small the Hochstadts began a creative venture for the shelter more than a year ago. After snapping a photo of their foster dog, Ginger, the Hochstadts realized the importance of posting flattering, but accurate, photos of each dog on the shelter's website. So for the past year, the Hochstadts have photographed dozens of shelter dogs each week for online posts. The two have snapped an estimated 600 photos since beginning their work helping dogs find new homes.

A video making its way around today offers up a great walk down memory lane. Can you imagine anyone else except Michael J. Fox starring in Back to the Future? Well, Eric Stoltz was the original choice but was recast 5 weeks into the film's production. The clip below features Steven Spielberg, Robert Zemeckis and (co-writer) Bob Gale explaining the switcheroo. The clip is part of the extras on the DVD and Blu-ray release of the trilogy on October 26.
Eric Stoltz's 'Back To The Future' Moment
26 Comments
Finally! I've been waiting to see this forever! Thanks for posting.
The strange thing with Stoltz is that I've been watching him in movies forever and didn't really realize how good he was before Caprica.
I hope they release more of that footage on whatever anniversary they have next.
The TV series Fringe made reference to this: In an episode set in the show's "alternate universe," a movie theatre marquee reads "Eric Stoltz in Back to the Future."
Just from those little clips, it has a very different feel. It seems like it would've been more of a drama with him.
Agreed. It would have been a different movie, but still pretty good. More drama, heavier, etc. Fox was great but would be cool to see an alt version.
right there with you. it would have been a great movie regardless, but more poignant, not as funny. and i have to admit, seeing it in the theater back then, the audience laughed early and often, and it was key to the movie's success.
at least stoltz still went on to enjoy a busy career, and deservedly so.
This was a fantastic film. To this day it stands as simply perfect.
Stolz is Lance in Pulp Fiction funny, not Marty McFly funny. Good move.
Man, finally! Historic footage-wow. I'd heard they'd made a promise never to release that footage? or was that just urban legend?
Wow. Five weeks of reshoots. Nowadays they would've said fine but you have to reshoot those scenes in 3 weeks…
i wonder how many months Stoltz stayed in bed with the blinds drawn after they fired him.
it's a credit to him he bounced back and went on to have such a solid and very real career. a lot of people would have played the victim and folded. it's a real lesson to anyone anywhere who catches a bad break.
don't think zemeckis or spielberg ever made it up to him, either. way to go to, eric.
Great point. Zemeckis hails Stolz as a "great actor" but certainly never made any effort to use him elsewhere over the years. I wonder if there was more at play here…creative differences, etc.
Why does anyone have to "make it up to him"? He was the wrong fit for the job and he was let go. Happens to people all the time. Sheesh – lose your ridiculous sense of entitlement.
Beacuse Zemeckis was the guy who hired Eric in the first place. So it was Zemeckis' wrong decision, and a promising and talented young actor suffered a great deal because of this.
It would have been a great pro gesture to offer Eric any part in any Zemeckis project! Shame on you RZ!
Excellent comeback. Too often actors are unfortunate middlemen in the foolish decisions and whims of studio executives. Why should they have to suffer
Yeah, Eric would have made Marty a darker, more complex character — though by this footage, it looks like everything, even down to the black leather, was being played that way.
Stolz looks too mature and "leading man" for the part. Fox was great because he had untraditional looks and a quirky acting style.
This feels like an official revision. Always heard that they knew from the start they'd re-cast after five weeks and Stoltz was the patsy. Even heard, also a rumor, that Sheinberg was in on it.
Echoing another poster, it is something to have the rug pulled out from you on a major film but Stoltz has carried himself well since then and has done some really fine work.
On a film my partners and I did years back, we had an actor fall out the day before shooting. Stoltz came on at the last minute as a favor to a fellow actor friend playing the lead. He did so with great enthusiasm, worked the role really well and was a darn nice chap. He basically saved our ass as producers. Something I'll never forget and quite thankful for.
Stoltz is a great guy. This must have been a very difficult time for him. He's a very well-respected actor.
yeah, had to point out Stoltz's resilience amidst all the entertaining intrigue.
it must have been just awful to be replaced, and then watch as the film became a world wide sensation and make another actor, deservedly so, such a huge movie star. how do you explain that one to your bros?
again, good on you, Eric, you are absolutely hilarious as "The Key Master" in "Say Anything," and don't let nobody, including Bobby Z, tell you different.
RZ could have cast him in Contact in the McConnaughy role. That would have added a hell of a lot of depth to that character and his interaction with Foster's driven astromomer.
Makes me want to see footage of Michael Keaton's work on Woody Allen's "Purple Rose of Cairo." As it turned out, Jeff Daniels was a great replacement, but Keaton would have been wonderful as Tom Baxter. Allen will likely never release the evidence.
Legendary footage. Hope there's more of it on the Blu-ray with less talking heads so we can get a feel for the scenes with the Stoltz-Marty.
It's kind of like the seeing that footage of Tom Selleck rehearsing scenes from Raiders — how different the movies would be; would they be classics?
It's amazing how many actors got replaced over the course of that series. Crispin Glover got the ax when he reportedly asked for too much money in the sequels. Claudia Wells, the original girlfriend in the first, left and replaced by Elizabeth Shue because of vague "family problems."
What really gets me is that I read somewhere that the two actors who were set to play Marty's brother and sister in the original were nixed when Stoltz. Wow. Getting the sack on a fifteen-line role (or whatever). That's harsh.
Are they actually going to show scenes without the commentary? That would be great and would make me want to buy the DVD.
Back to the Future is an all-timer, the kind of movie that justifies your decision to go to a movie.
Not a big fan of the movie or Fox but have always liked Eric Stoltz. Probably would have liked the movie if Stoltz had remained in the movie.

Nothing beats a long hot bath at the end of a fun filled (and exhausting) day with my two year old. I love the rice sake bath from Fresh because it smells like peaches and is full of anti-oxidant properties. Geishas have long used sake baths to detox and soften their skin, this is a must have in my bathroom!

When it's the height of spring season, around the month of April, it's not a good idea to buy any mattress or do a mattress upgrade for this month, according to Huffington Post.
In the article written by Lynn Andriani, she suggested a few thing you can hold off with buying any household items and zeroed in on mattresses saying that the best times to make a purchase would instead be during Memorial Day, the Fourth of July or Labor Day. These are great periods because many stores offer sales or price cuts, for bedding items like mattresses especially. This is also the time manufacturers prepare for the release of their latest models, hence they are cleaning or marking down old models.
To buy a mattress in April would be a mistake, because the sale season really is just around the corner.
Have you heard of any other tips with buying mattresses or scoring mattress deals?

Inspiring and motivating students from the moment it published, Organic Chemistry has established itself in just one edition as the student's choice of an organic chemistry text.
The second edition refines and refocuses Organic Chemistry to produce a text that is even more student-friendly, coherent, and logical in its presentation than before.
Like the first, the second edition is built on three principles:
An explanatory approach, through which the reader is motivated to understand the subject and not just learn the facts;
A mechanistic approach, giving the reader the power to understand compounds and reactions never previously encountered;
An evidence-based approach, setting out clearly how and why reactions happen as they do, giving extra depth to the reader's understanding.
The authors write clearly and directly, sharing with the reader their own fascination with the subject, and leading them carefully from topic to topic. Their honest and open narrative flags pitfalls and misconceptions, guiding the reader towards a complete picture of organic chemistry and its universal themes and principles.
The text is also available as a CourseSmart Ebook at www.CourseSmart.com (ISBN 9780191645587, $67). Please contact your Oxford University Press Sales Representative at 800-280-0280 for more information.

Our courtroom experience, at the federal level, is what sets Bemis, Roach & Reed apart. We have successfully litigated against virtually every major long term disability insurance carrier in the United States. We are familiar with their claims handling practices and the lawyers who will defend them.
Social Security Disability Lawyers and Long Term Disability Lawyers – Austin, Texas
Social Security Disability benefits (SSDI or SSI) are difficult to obtain. There are deadlines for filing, endless paperwork to complete, and complicated guidelines for determining whether or not you will be eligible. A qualified social security lawyer with specialized knowledge in Social Security Disability law is far more likely to obtain the maximum benefits than a lawyer without the same experience. It is even more important to have a successful litigation attorney on your side if you have been denied ss disability benefits. Let one of our winning social security lawyers fight for the disability benefits you deserve.
It has become a common trend for long term disability insurance carriers to deny valid disability benefits claims either initially or after paying for a year or two, asserting that the person's condition has improved or that the definition of disability has changed. While their actions would have previously been considered insurance bad faith practices, the insurance companies contend that state insurance bad faith law does not apply to their activities. As a result, individuals are having to navigate the complexities of the federal court system. You need an experienced ERISA long term disability lawyer to fight for your rights.
If you are considering employment with the State of Texas or with an institution of higher learning, the disability advocates of Bemis, Roach & Reed strongly advises that you take advantage of the disability insurance benefit offered by ERS at the outset.
An applicant or an employee who fails to enroll within 31 days of his first day of work will not be offered disability insurance unless he can provide Evidence of Insurability. The applicant will pay all expenses related to obtaining Evidence of Insurability and there is no guarantee that you will be approved.
"Fantastic law firm with the personal touch! From the first contact to the final meeting, the staff at Bemis, Roach & Reed made my husband and I feel at ease. Mr. Bemis gave so much of his time and expertise as we discussed our disability case. He sees the whole picture of your situation and guides you through the process with his kindness, patience and invaluable wisdom. I highly recommend this group of professionals if you are looking for a disability law firm."
