2 DESCRPTON CONDTON CHECK ONE CHECK ONE ~XORGNAL STE -UNALTERED XALTEREO -MOVED DATE DESCRBE THE PRESENT AND ORGNAL (F KNOWN) PHYSCAL APPEARANCE Situated near State Route 10 west of Surry Court House, the Glebe House of Southwark Parish is a three-bay, story-and-a-half gambrel-roofed structure set on a low basement. t is built of brick laid in Flemish bond above and below the beveled water table. (me basement was stuccoed in 1924.) The present appearance of the house has been achieved through a series of alterations. Originally, it was a single-story, gable-roofed building with interior end chimneys, raking courses of glazed headers paralleling the eaves, and corbelled cornice stops. Early in the nineteenth century, the roof was altered to its present gambrel form and the chimneys were rebuilt as exterior end chimneys. To cover the differences in the brickwork, it was painted red with white joints, but the raking courses of headers and the corbelled cornice stops (under a later box cornice) remain as clues to the original form of the building.. The present front windows were enlarged in the nineteenth century, and large nine-overnine sash inserted. The window openings on the gable ends were apparently made at the time of the enlargement of the front windows, and jack arches were painted over them. The rear windows with their gauged brick jack arches, narrow nine-over-nine sash, and wooden sills appear to be the original size. The recent removal of the nineteenth-century porches from the front, rear, and ends of the house revealed on the east facade the shadow of an original porch which apparently was a simple hood. Further evidence of earlier states of the house was provided by a round-butted wooden shingle and some roofing slates found in the attic during the most recent renovation. The house has a single-pile, central-passage plan. n the passage is an early triple-run stair with square newels, a closed stringer, and a heavily molded handrail on the lower runs. The stair has no balusters except on the landing. The balusters are square wooden ones set diagonally and are topped by a plain, round-topped handrail which extends onto the upper run. These balusters and handrails are apparently later alterations. Also noteworthy in the central passage is the two-panel, raised-panel door to the cellar stairs, which is hung on foliated H-hinges. The early nineteenth-century remodeling also resulted in changes to the interior. Eesides these modifications to the upper portions of the stair already discussed, the most striking addition was the mantel in the (north) dining room, which has an architrave surround, molded shelf, and two horizontal raised panels in the frieze. Possibl:? dating from this period as well was the handsome graining, formerly found throughout the house b ~ now t surviving only on one door. Further remodelling, carried out in the mid-nineteenth century, resulted in a plain Greek Revival mantel in the-south room (parlor) and a few Greek Revival doors scattered throughout the house. There are two rooms in the cellar. The southern of the two was paved with cement during renovations in 1924, but the northern one retains its brick tile floor. Of the early outbuildings only a gable-roofed frame smokehouse remains which, according to an old photograph, formerly stood northeast of the house but is now placed northwest of it. Beaded weatherboards remain on the north side under a nineteenth-century lean-to wing.

Associated with the Reverend John Cargill, a prominent figure among the Virginia clergy of the early eighteenth century, the house retains many original features despite a series of alterations Southwark Parish was set off from James City Parish in 1647, and until 1738 was-one of. two parishes--the other was Lawne's Creek--which served the present Surry-Sus.sex County area. n 1738, the Surry County portions of Southwark and Lawne's Creek parishes were combined into a single parish called Southwark. The southern portions of the two older parishes were set off as Albemarle Parish. n 1721, land for a glebe at ndian Springs Plantation was left to the parish by Capt. Francis Clements, who had served as Clerk of Surry County, , Three years latcr, the Rev. John Cargill, minister of Southwark Parish since 1708, wrote in a report to the Bishop of London that "my glebe house is in a very bad condition and the parish will not repair it, so must look out for a house elsewhere." Architectural evidence suggests that Cargill's parish built him the present house on the glebe soon after he rcgistered his complaint. Cargill played a prominent part in the affairs of the Virginia clergy. He was a member of a convention which met at the College of William and Mary in 1719 to consider Commissary James Blair's request that the clergy side with him in a political dispute with Governor Alexander Spotswood. The majority of the convention, however, took Spotswood's side and took pains as well to question Blair's own credentials as an Anglican cleric. Cargill was one of a small group of dissenters from the convention's report who supported Elair's position. Cargills' successors included Peter Davis (listed as rector in 1758), Benjamin Blagrovc (1774, 1776), John Henry Burgess (1785) and Samuel Butler (1790, 1792). The latter was a notorious ban vivant and president of the Jockey Club of Surry and Charles City counties. Under his pastorate, the parish was disbanded. The glebe house was sold, as required by the legislature in 1802, and like most of the standing Virginia glebe houses, it underwent extensive remodeling at that tirne. t has been held by a succession of private owners since the Disestablishment. From 1906 to 1966 it was the home of the Bryant family and in 1971 was purchased by Col. and Mrs. Nelson Ritchie.

The only way to God is through Christ. Jews born before the time of Christ may very well have an opportunity to accept Christ. Those afterwards need to accept Christ, as did the Apostles, who were Jews.
"God's Chosen People" are those who follow Him. Jews, with the knowledge of Christ, do not follow God.
"Jews, with the knowledge of Christ, do not follow God."
Back in the O.T. they had knowledge of God, but did not follow Him either lots of times. (Baal worship, the Golden Calf, etc.) Yes they were punished (exile, wandering for 40 years, etc.) but they were still God's chosen people.
I think they still are God's chosen people, even if they do not follow God today. I didn't always think that way.
Yeah, they worship the One True God and missed the critical turn. Many of them (we called them Messianic Jews, don't know what they consider themselves) will find the truth and so Israel, (a remnant is saved) unto perpetuity.
Meanwhile, salvation has come to the Gentiles..
We read in Hebrews 11 of Jews who had faith.
Not all Israel had faith. But, like Isaiah, these Hebrews 11 Jews trusted in a coming Messiah even though they did not know his name would be Jesus. This was enough.
One must have faith in the righteousness provided by God to be saved. It's an individual thing. Not all individuals of any nation or tribe will be saved just because of blood heritage.
Jesus is God, the second person of the Trinity.
I have yet to meet and discuss theology with any dispensationalists who would disagree. I think where supersessionalists "miss the boat" is by assuming that because God has brought us to Him through His Son that the Jews aren't still in His plan and won't be converted. I believe the vehicle God uses to convert the Jews is the Tribulation.

|[jira] [Updated] (KAFKA-736) Add an option to the 0.8 producer to mimic 0.7 producer behavior
|Mon, 28 Jan 2013 00:37:12 GMT
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-736?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ] Neha Narkhede updated KAFKA-736: -------------------------------- Attachment: kafka-736-draft.patch This is a draft patch that changes the behavior of the required.request.acks=0 to not wait on a response from the broker. Since the producer can send batched requests without waiting for a network roundtrip, the throughput of the producer is very high and matches that of the 0.7 producer. I haven't run full fledged performance tests to get a detailed report but I've seen a single producer's throughput increase from 11 MB/s to 45 MB/s with the same config. Initially, I thought that without any changes to the socket server, it will not read more than 1 request from a producer on the same connection. That's because after reading a request completely, we set the interest ops to READ only after the response is written on the socket. Now, since we basically got rid of the response, my thinking was that the producer will keep writing onto the socket and its socket buffer will eventually fill up since the broker is not reading from that socket anymore. But this is not how the socket server behaves, which works in the favor of this feature. When the socket server accepts a connection, it registers the READ interest for that channel. Now even after we read a request completely, if there are more requests waiting on that socket and since the interest ops on that socket has not been changed, the server continues to select that key for READ operation. But, the current socket server design will reorder pipelined requests. All the requests sent to the broker end up in a common request queue. Let's say there are two requests R1 followed by R2 from the same socket in the request queue. Two different io threads can handle those requests and the response for R2 gets written before R1 on the socket. For ordering to work correctly, we need to maintain stickiness between the requests from one key and the corresponding io/request handler thread. One way of solving this problem is to replace the common request queue with a per io thread request queue. The network thread maps a key to a io thread when it accepts a new connection and maintains this mapping until the connection is closed and the key is invalid. One of the problems that this design has is that if one client sends requests at a very high rate, the corresponding io thread's request queue will fill up and the respective network thread will block. But thinking about this, the current one-request-queue approach suffers from the same drawback. This draft patch is meant for design review, I would like to save the following improvements for the v1 patch depending on which way we decide to go - 1. Add more unit tests for required.num.acks=0 2. Cache the key->io thread mapping instead of recomputing on each request > Add an option to the 0.8 producer to mimic 0.7 producer behavior > ---------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: KAFKA-736 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-736 > Project: Kafka > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: producer > Affects Versions: 0.8 > Reporter: Neha Narkhede > Assignee: Neha Narkhede > Priority: Blocker > Labels: p2, replication-performance > Attachments: kafka-736-draft.patch > > Original Estimate: 24h > Remaining Estimate: 24h > > I profiled a producer throughput benchmark between a producer and a remote broker. It turns out that the background send threads spends ~97% of its time waiting to read the acknowledgement from the broker. > I propose we change the current behavior of request.required.acks=0 to mean no acknowledgement from the broker. This will mimic the 0.7 producer behavior and will enable tuning the producer for very high throughput. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.

About Me
I like cooking but I don't think I would venture too far without my recipe book. Both in that I love trying things new but I love creating my own and recording what I have if I end up liking what I make. The best discovery for me was my first recipe book, which was my mothers and she didn't like the idea of letting me have it but I convinced her that it was going to be well used in my tiny apartment and it has been. Now I am the one sending her new recipes to try and I think she is liking the investment she made.

A good friend recommended Oodles of Doodles when my husband and I decided to adopt a rescue dog. What a wonderful organization! We cannot express how impressed we have been with the level of expertise, the total commitment, and true love and caring demonstrated by the fosters in this group. They work as a team to provide the best care possible for each and every rescue dog, and then work tirelessly to find the perfect forever home and family. Our 2 little poodles were put out on the streets after their owner died. After weeks of begging for food and struggling to stay alive, a stranger took them to a shelter.. but it was a high kill shelter in Virginia. A most wonderful foster rescued them, cared for them as her own, and nursed them back to health. And now, thanks to the work of Oodles of Doodles, Nick and Noelle have found their forever home with us. We could not be happier!
Our shelter has worked with this rescue on several occasions. They are caring, professional and courteous. Our interactions have been nothing but positive. I love that they even let me know when our dogs were adopted and send even have sent updates. I highly recommend them.
My boyfriend and I are both volunteers. I can honestly say from observation and expierence that these people love and truly care about these animals. Not to mention that they know what they're doing. I have gone to my local pet store on all the days that each volunteer group was there. I'm going to be completely honest when I say this. The volunteers and foster parents of Opdles of Doodles know what they are doing. When I went to volunteer with one of the other groups or inquire of a pet. I was ignored not once, but multiple times and I had to wait over an hour to meet a volunteer. Not Oodles of Doodles, they immediately engaged in conversation with me and even rembered my face. I've seen some of the volunteers cry tears of joy because a dog got rescued. My boyfriend and I have spent our own money on dog treats to give to the dogs just because we wanted to. I am proud to say that I am a volunteer with this organization and I look forward to every Friday from 5:30pm-8:00pm. I can honestly say that these people truly care about these animals.
I adopted a labradoodle from this organization four years ago and could not be more pleased. In fact, I recently adopted my second rescue from them last month. This organization and its members are top notch individuals who care deeply about animals in need, sacrifice huge amounts of time, energy and money to find homeless, thrown away dogs a new home and life. My first rescue adoption was a difficult case who had lived in a breeding puppy mill her whole life. Bringing her into a home, a family and a normal way of life was a very long journey. I felt supported and assisted the whole time. I was always able to turn to other members for advice and much needed information. My Maggie has now turned out to be a real joy who I can't imagine living without. I recently decided to begin fostering dogs from this group. My first foster, Oliver, was such a beautiful match for Maggie that of course we adopted him. I have been so inspired by the work of Lynne Fowler and her fellow members. These people work diligently and lovingly to change the lives of so many dogs. It is because of their efforts that Maggie and Oliver are alive today and thriving. When I think of how close these two beautiful animals came to being euthanized my heart just breaks. I am eternally grateful to Lynne for saving my two best friends and highly recommend Oodles of Doodles to anyone thinking of adopting their new best buddy.
I am currently a foster who previously adopted from Oodles. Having been on both sides i can honestly say, this organization is top notch. These people work tirelessly
literally around the clock to save the lives of as many dogs as they can. All the dogs are treated incredibly well and an enormous amount of effort is put into finding the perfect home for each and everyone of them. Oodles is a very special organizanrion with high standards and and an exceptional group of dedicated individuals holding it to those standards each and every day!
When we found Sarah she was in rough shape. We struggled to rehab her and loved her very much. We quickly realized we needed to re-home her to a family who had a larger home and could let her run and dig. I asked for help finding a rescue group and a dear friend pointed me to this one. They are wonderful to work with! They took pains to find a foster till our beloved Sarah could find the home she needed! The support and care they provide is wonderful! I would recommend them highly! I knew she would be well cared for and loved in their hands! They had transport provided for her and really cared how we felt. We cried as she left our home but I knew she was saved for that moment and they were going to find the family she was meant for. They are like family to us now! I love them dearly for what they have done to help Sarah!
If it wasn't for Oodles of Doodles Inc and their incredible caring foster's I would not have received the best little dog on the face of this earth. Caring and professional people, the best experience I've had with a rescue group. They truly care!
My experience with Oodles of Doodles was nothing but positive. The process went quickly and easily and we were able to provide a forever home to a very sweet puppy. The puppies are given the best of care prior to adoption and I feel that they do a very good job trying to make a good match for both puppy and future owner. They provide hope for animals that have been abused and/or abandoned. I have recommended them to several of my friends who were ready to adopt.
Just a great rescue all around the best and I have foster for a lot of rescue just love it
I have been a volunteer with Oodles of Doodles since it's inception and have supported it every step of the way. There is a true love of the dogs and a desire to make a dogs life better in this group. The rescued dogs become part of the foster family and then are found the best home available. This is a very honest organization and extremely trustworthy. I have nothing but admiration for everyone in this group.
I have been a volunteer with Oodles of Doodles, Inc. for over a year now. This group is made up of dedicated people who sincerely care about the welfare of not only dogs but all animals AND each other. From the moment a dog is taken under the group's wings, until they are adopted by their new family, they are loved unconditionally, fed the best nutritional food possible, and receive the best medical treatment (if necessary). From puppies to seniors, Oodles of Doodles, Inc. stretches out their arms to help. I am proud to say I am a voluteer with them and to have met such a wonderful group of people!

Concord, NH – With the high temperatures expected in the State over the
next several days, the New Hampshire Department of Health and Human
Services (DHHS) reminds people to take precautions to avoid heat-related
illnesses, such as heat cramps, heat stroke, and heat exhaustion, most
importantly staying hydrated by drinking plenty of water. The New Hampshire
Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) Emergency Services Unit
(ESU) has also been working with communities across the State to compile a
list of cooling centers that are air conditioned.
These are places where people can go to escape the extremely hot weather.
There are approximately 20 centers that are open at this time, located all
over New Hampshire. The list of community organizations will be updated as
the conditions change. To find a center in your community please call 211.
People can always go to shopping centers, stores, movie theaters, or
libraries to cool off also.
Due to the predicted high heat and humidity, DHHS is recommending that
people take precautions against heat-related illnesses such as, heat
stroke, dehydration, and heat exhaustion. This is of particular concern
for those who are working or exercising outside, seniors, children and
people with certain medical conditions, such as heart disease and asthma.
Simple precautions include remaining in an air-conditioned environment
whenever possible, which is the number one protective measure, drinking
plenty of fluids especially water, but avoiding caffeine, alcohol, and
large amounts of sugar, wearing light clothing, and limiting outdoor
activity. For concerns about your health or someone else's during excessive
heat, contact your healthcare provider or call 911 for emergency
For more information on heat-related illnesses, visit the Centers for
Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) at www.cdc.gov . For questions about
animal health and heat, call the Department of Agriculture at 603-271-2404

Remotely controlling digital cameras with gPhoto
In Charge
Commercial software that lets users remotely control their camera usually is not available for Linux. gPhoto gives users a free alternative.
Some vendors offer commercial add-ons to help users remotely control their cameras – for example, to take a series of photos at set intervals. Time exposures of the night sky and time-lapse photos of a growing plant are excellent choices of subject as well. However, vendors such as Canon and Nikon only offer their software for Windows and the Mac OS, and Nikon even charges for the program [1]. To make things worse, the software is closed source and not suitable for scripting, which tends to restrict its usefulness.
The gPhoto [2] project mainly comprises the libgphoto2 library, the gphoto2 command-line interface, and the gtkam front end (see also the "Gtkam Graphical Front End" box). The software lets users read and change the status of their digital cameras, copy files in both directions, and remotely control digital cameras.
As of this writing, gPhoto supports more than 1,100 digital camera models. A lack of cooperation on the part of camera manufacturers has forced developers to reverse engineer most of the protocol information and explains why the software does not support all of the features that are available on every single digital camera.
Although most state-of-the-art digital cameras that support simple tasks – such as transferring images – use the popular Picture Transfer Protocol (PTP) standard, the remote control protocols are typically undocumented. The examples in this article have been tested on a Canon 50D and should work with any digital camera supported by gPhoto with slight modifications (especially with Canon models).
Gtkam Graphical Front End
The gtkam graphical front end (Figure 1) currently has only a rudimentary set of functions, although it does vastly simplify image downloads. From the drop-down menu, you can select the connected digital camera and use the thumbnails to navigate through your collection of images. Gtkam does not support remote control functionality for digital cameras. Applications such as the KDE digiKam [3] tool offer more convenience than gtkam.
Data Management
Before you start working with gPhoto, determine whether your camera's transfer mode is set to PTP; otherwise, the program will not support it. To find out whether gPhoto has correctly identified your camera, type gphoto2 --auto-detect at the console to see the following output:
$ <B>gphoto2 --auto-detect<B> Model Port --------------------------------- Canon EOS 50D usb:
In this example, the software found a Canon 50D. The gphoto2 --summary command provides some basic information about the camera, including the memory card (capacity and space usage), designation, serial number, firmware version, and supported file formats. If you set the --list-files flag, you also get a listing of all the images on the memory card. To download the images, try --get-all-files. Table 1 lists a selection of file and directory management options.
Remote Control
Although file downloads work with some 1,100 digital camera models, remote control through gPhoto works with less than 10 percent [4] of them. Most of the supported models are made by Nikon and Canon, and the function is not available at all for cameras by Samsung, Sigma, and Sony.
The gphoto2 --list-config command lists all supported functions offered by the software for the connected camera. For Canon SLR cameras such as the 50D and 400D, you can add capture=on to get a full list of configuration parameters (Listing 1). The --get-config switch reads all the configuration parameters and their possible values; --set-config assigns a parameter. For example, the command in Listing 2 tells gPhoto to output all available ISO settings.
Listing 1
Listing Configuration Parameters
$ gphoto2 --set-config capture=on --list-config /main/settings/eos-time /main/settings/eos-synctime (...) /main/imgsettings/eos-iso /main/imgsettings/eos-whitebalance /main/capturesettings/eos-exposurecompensation /main/capturesettings/picturestyle (...)
Listing 2
ISO Settings for the Canon EOS
$ gphoto2 --set-config capture=on --get-config=/main/ imgsettings/eos-iso Label: EOS ISO speed Type: RADIO Current: 400 Choice: 0 Auto Choice: 1 100 Choice: 2 200 (...) Choice: 6 3200
To set the ISO value to 1600, simply type gphoto2 --set-config capture=on --set-config eos-iso=1600. The supported values for configuration parameters such as the ISO setting (eos-iso), exposure compensation (eos-exposurecompensation), white balance (eos-whitebalance), or picture style (picturestyle) depend on the camera you are using. The available values for the aperture setting (eos-aperture) are driven by your choice of lens (Listing 3). Also note that the path following --get-config= must match your camera model.
Listing 3
Aperture Settings for Canon EOS
$ gphoto2 --set-config capture=on --get-config=/main/ capturesettings/eos-aperture Label: EOS aperture Type: RADIO Current: 5.6 Choice: 0 1.4 Choice: 1 1.6 Choice: 2 1.8 (1/3) (...) Choice: 24 22

Spent the last week playing catch up on mostly old movies:
"El Orfanato" - spooky happenings at a former orphanage. Engaging story. A few suspenseful scenes, but you can almost see Producer Guillermo Del Toro's fingerprints all over the ending -- or is it the other way around? If you've seen "Pan's Labyrinth", you'll know what I mean.
"Fear(s) of the Dark" - freaky animated anthology -- in french. Meh...
"Forbidden Kingdom" - tone is all over the place. Can't decide if it wants to be a kid's movie or not. Gets the fantasy aspect right, but the fights are kinda dull -- hard to believe when Jackie Chan and Jet Li are your stars. Good concept, only average execution. The sequences set in the real world were especially awful.
"Hatchet" - a throwback to 80s horror. Better than average dialogue for a slasher flick, a cast of veteran character actors doesn't hurt either -- although Mercedes McNabb is kinda wasted here, somebody give her a sitcom! Clings too much to the 80s formula: Unstoppable killer dispatches stranded victims in the most gruesome of manners. I kept expecting an interesting twist to a well-worn concept, but it never came. Shame.
"Rocket Science" - one of the best films of 2007. Released in only a handful of theaters, it's a coming-of-age dramedy about a teen with a stuttering problem who gets recruited by a Tracy Flick type to join the debate team. Exploits a lot of the cliches that we've come to expect in this genre. Not everyone's cup of tea, but if you like quirky comedies, give it a chance.
"Stardust" - "The Princess Bride" comparisons are accurate -- they couldn't sell that one either. Too light and fluffy for grown-ups, no draws for the younger crowd -- although Michelle Pfeiffer is a hoot! Entertaining story, but a hard concept to sell. I usually rally against special effects overkill, but this film could've used some CGI-poppers. And it doesn't have as many memorable lines and scenes as "Bride". Gotta dig up that early draft I have on the hard drive...

Crow remake
It's good to see Stephen Norrington working again, but this seems like a reach -- a gritty, documentary style version? The franchise is in shambles and I can't imagine fans of the original will be pleased. Of course, folks said the same thing about Batman...

Everyone involved must have thought "Jumper" was going to be a can't miss franchise, how else do you explain the underdeveloped story and characters? Jumpers are bad. Palladins are good. We're in the middle of a war. Who? Huh? What!? There's a much larger story here, but the film decides to focus on an uninteresting and selfish protagonist -- maybe the good stuff was teleported into the sequel that we'll never see...
Hayden Christensen's character is more realistic than the typical comic-book hero, he uses his newfound teleportation ability to rob banks instead of "doing good", but I dare you to care about anyone in the story. I expected a lot more from Doug Liman and David Goyer.

Lost Boys: The Tribe
A sequel for a film made over twenty years ago... it certainly isn't the vampire biker chick idea that Joel Schumacher was supposedly keen on a few years back -- with Britney Spears being the head vamp. Now that could have been "Showgirls" good...
I could have sworn the original was this huge box office smash, but it only made 32 million back in 1987. Probably got bigger on video. Anyway, LB: TT is a decent vampire flick that doesn't have any lofty goals. Kiefer Sutherland is busy saving the world as Jack Bauer, so they got his brother Angus to play the baddie. He's fine, along with the rest of the cast. Ironically, the guy with the most experience was the weakest link here. It seemed like the cast was in one movie and Corey Feldman was in another -- if you stick around after/during the credits, Corey Haim makes a "surprise" appearance.
There's not a lot to say about the story. It's basically a low budget rehash of the original, except the siblings are brother and sister. I'm not sure why the vamps are surfers or if it matters -- probably not.

The Incredible Hulk
A much better effort than Ang Lee's version. Edward Norton makes a great Banner -- although I gotta say, Liv Tyler < Jennifer Connelly. I especially liked all the shout-outs to the TV series: the Gamma radiation machine, Lou Ferrigno cameo, Jack Magee, etc. It's a fun romp -- mostly.
One of the biggest challenges of a superhero flick is to make the protagonist's civilian life seem interesting. Banner (and Betty) on the run from the military works as a Bourne-styled thriller. I also dug the way the film didn't go for the money shot right away, instead they hid the Hulk in the shadows at the soda plant in Brasil -- very much like a horror movie. The transformation scenes could have been handled a little better -- hastily put together and I don't recall seeing the Hulk change back to Banner.
Ultimately, things falls apart when the third act turns into a lame CGI smackdown. Look Hollywood, nobody above the age 12 cares about two computer generated behemoths trading blows. Nothing is at stake -- except for the city of New York, yet again. At least "Transformers" was smart enough to give the puny humans something to do. Here, everybody stands around and watches. I have a copy of the script on the hard drive, will have to do a little compare and contrast...
One more thing, the scene where the Hulk kicks Tim Roth in the chest didn't ring true to me. The Hulk is this rampaging monster, but Bruce Banner still exists somewhere inside him and he'd never allow that.

The DVD release reminded me that I had neglected to post my thoughts on this... meh. Okay, I can do better than that. I'm a big fan of Russian director Timur Bekmambetov -- now that's a mouthful -- "Day Watch" and "Night Watch" were fun supernatural/action flicks bursting with energy. "Wanted" seemed like a great opportunity to showcase his unique vision for mainstream American audiences... didn't turn out that way. Sure, there are tons of cool set pieces, big stunts and lots of stylized action, but it just sits there like a lump of coal.
It's hard to ignore the obvious "Matrix" parallels: wimpy hero stuck at a crappy job, beautiful woman comes along, takes him through the looking glass to a secret place with other special people, where a wise black man explains his true path. "The Matrix" doesn't have a monopoly on this particular storyline, but it's still fresh in a lot of minds. The script is a good read -- alas, some of my favorite scenes didn't make the cut. I did like the mystical bit about the loom, and Fox is a far more honorable character in the film than in the draft that I read. It's a solid action film, but even with Jolie and all her bells and whistles, nothing special. Look, I know it's a film about assassins, not about folks who work at a teddy bear factory. If you're looking for a violent popcorn flick, "Wanted" fits the bill -- made a ton of scratch and somehow they're gonna do a sequel or prequel -- it's just not the best popcorn flick it could be.
Would've been interesting to see the actors who inspired the graphic novel, Halle Berry and Eminem, in the lead roles.

My Approach to Art
When working with clay, I don't have a defined direction. Most of my work is experimental which means that I don't stay with one direction long enough for my work to be identified as my signature. I can start a project one day, and deviate the next, going in a different course.
The work of my peers inspires me to try other avenues of technique when working with clay. For example, I may begin creating a sculpture one day, and the next, I can find myself sitting at my wheel throwing mugs. Other days can see me fabricating a mold that will allow me to create the perfect bowl form. Or I may find myself working with my brushes, allowing my inner self to push the boundaries of the three-dimension form that is on my workbench in front of me.
I want to gain recognition for my efforts, not necessarily for monetary gain, but for the satisfaction that I created something that the public enjoy, and wishes to own. I make art for the joy of filling the world with objects that I create, and that I feel are beautiful.
As a visual artist who slips in and out of the functional world, I continue to research the experimental glaze arena, dabbling in the painting process, and playing in the modeling and sculpting disciplines. Each day, I allow my feelings to decide where I will go with clay-art, and what a fulfilling journey it is.

Variation of geometric invariant theory quotients
- Received:
- Revised:
- Citations
- 335 Downloads
Geometric Invariant Theory gives a method for constructing quotients for group actions on algebraic varieties which in many cases appear as moduli spaces parameterizing isomorphism classes of geometric objects (vector bundles, polarized varieties, etc.). The quotient depends on a choice of an ample linearized line bundle. Two choices are equivalent if they give rise to identical quotients. A priori, there are infinitely many choices since there are infinitely many isomorphism classes of linearized ample line bundles. Hence several natural questions arise. Is the set of equivalence classes, and hence the set of non-isomorphic quotients, finite? How does the quotient vary under change of the equivalence class? In this paper we give partial answers to these questions in the case of actions of reductive algebraic groups on nonsingular projective algebraic varieties. We shall show that among ample line bundles which give projective geometric quotients there are only finitely many equivalence classes. These classes span certain convex subsets (chambers) in a certain convex cone in Euclidean space, and when we cross a wall separating one chamber from another, the corresponding quotient undergoes a birational transformation which is similar to a Mori flip.

Relationship between Cancer and Diabetes Confirmed
Diabetics are at risk for any number of conditions. Kidney disease, diabetic retinopathy, heart and blood vessel trouble, even impotence, there are all linked to diabetes. Since it is a systemic disease, its effects are felt all over the body and can lead to all sorts of symptoms. One that remains somewhat mysterious is the link between cancer and diabetes. This has been studied for a while, but it is still a mystery exactly what is going on. For a long time it has been thought that prolonged insulin use has something to do with the higher cancer rate in diabetics of both types, especially type 2 diabetics that must take insulin due to their body's insulin resistance.
Studies in Denmark have recently confirmed the hypothesis that there is a link between cancer and diabetes, and that this link is also associated with the use of insulin injections. This study has been going on for more than 13 years and has been studying the relationship between diabetics using insulin and the number of cases of cancer that have been present in these people. For a long time it was thought that using insulin for a long time would steadily raise the risk of cancer, but this is one idea that has been disproved by the results of this research study.
The results of this study were no surprise in that they finally confirmed a link between diabetes and cancer that was long suspected. However, it also showed that the increased risk of cancer was only present in the first few years of taking insulin. At the start of treatment cancer risk was the highest but over time the risk of cancer steadily went down, even if the people participating in the study continued taking insulin. This study takes a load off of many doctors' mind, since it was thought for a long time that there was an increased risk of contracting cancer the longer a patient took insulin.
On average, taking insulin raised the rate of cancer in Danish men by up to three percent and in women by almost four percent. However, an important finding of this study is that it suggests that the link between diabetes and cancer is not direct, but rather that insulin is an important factor whose exact mechanism is unknown today. Perhaps this is largely due to the fact that type 2 diabetics that require insulin tend to have the same kind of body type and sedentary lifestyle, which also put them at risk for cancer.
It is important to know that this is the first study of its kind that has ever been attempted. That is, a study with such a great amount of people involved and for such a long period of time. It should also be noted that the link between diabetes and cancer is well known in medicine but there is almost no information about what it is exactly that causes the higher incidence of cancer in diabetic patients. This study goes a long way towards linking insulin as one of the culprits involved.

The bill passed the Senate only after significant changes.
The American Lung Association's annual report indicates Indiana's annual air quality is improving.
While Indiana's air quality has improved, its ranking relative to other states has worsened.
