Watch: Steelers' fake field goal, turned fake punt, goes awry
Pittsburgh Steelers coach Mike Tomlin made a bold decision in the second quarter of Sunday's game in Seattle, and things went terribly wrong.
On 4th-and-2 from the Seahawks 27-yard line, at the opening of the second quarter, the Steelers lined up for a field goal, only to shift out of the formation. Backup quarterback Landry Jones, who was serving as a holder on the play, dropped back into punt formation to take the snap.
Then, once he got the ball, Jones rolled out right, and threw back across his body to the left to offensive lineman Alejandro Villanueva. The lofty pass was easily picked off by cornerback Jeremy Lane, and returned into Steelers territory.
The Seahawks capitalized on the turnover, going ahead 7–3 on a touchdown to Doug Baldwin.

A Walk Among the TombstonesClose
For Parents
Common Sense Note
Parents need to know that A Walk Among the Tombstones is a crime thriller starring Liam Neeson as private investigator Matthew Scudder (a character previously played by Jeff Bridges in 1986's 8 Million Ways to Die). There's lots of gritty violence, including shoot outs, fighting, and blood. Women and teens are kidnapped and terrorized (one is threatened with having one of her breasts sliced off). A boy is beaten up, a young girl is shot, and another young girl is kidnapped. The kidnappers have gruesome ways of disposing with bodies, including chopping one up into bits. Language is strong, including several uses of "f--k" and "s--t." The main character is a recovering alcoholic, eight years sober, who attends AA meetings; he's shown drinking in a flashback. Another major character is a drug addict who smokes cigarettes. Sex is seen in a set of photographs, and topless women are shown in paintings, but there's nothing involving the major characters.
- Sexual Content
- The killers rip open a woman's clothes, and her breasts are briefly shown. One character has a selection of paintings of naked (topless) women on his wall. A man has a collection of photos taken of a coupe having sex in an apartment across the street; no sensitive body parts are shown.
- Violence
- A pair of kidnappers abducts two women and a 14-year-old girl. One of the women is shown gagged during the opening credits. In another sequence, the men threaten to slice off one of the woman's breasts (making her choose which one). One woman is chopped into pieces and put into little bags. The girl's fingers are chopped off. Several chases, shoot outs, and fights. The killers use wire around the neck to strangle victims. Plenty of blood is shown. A man commits suicide by jumping from the roof of a building. A young girl is accidentally shot, and a young boy is beaten up.
- Language
- "F--k" and "s--t" are used several times. "Bitch" is used.
- Social Behavior
- The movie's world is grim and hopeless -- one in which even good people end up doing bad things from time to time.
- Consumerism
- Not applicable
- Drugs / Tobacco / Alcohol
- The main character is a recovering alcoholic. In a flashback, he's seen drinking shots in a bar. But in the main story, he's sober and goes to AA meetings. Another character is a drug addict and is seen smoking cigarettes.
- Age appropriate
- Not an issue
- Depends on your kid and your family
- Not appropriate for kids of the age most likely to want to see it

Qualia the Purple (manga)
So, Qualia the Purple, also known as Murasakiiro no Qualia and The Violet Qualia, is a monthly manga written by Ueo Hisamitsu and with art by Shirou Tsunashima (Jinki and stuff).
Personally, I've been really into it, because every chapter so far throws a curveball, and it never really stops surprising. The art is also pretty good, as expected of Tsunashima, and it's nice to see him work on something promising. Also, according to the translator, apparently there are some huge plottwists in Volume 2 that make this get REALLY great, so I'm looking out for that, lol.
That said, anyone read it?

You know, I was just thinking about starting a thread on this, so congrats on the ninja. This manga really is quite interesting, especially the main character and her abilities. How it affects her daily life and personal relationships is quite thought provoking.
The whole tone is reminiscent of Iris Zero, in a way.

Haha, I've been meaning to start a thread for a while, too, but just logging on sometimes is more than I can do! Still, yeah, I was pleasantly surprised by Qualia, because so far it does a pretty good job of introducting the characters and presenting to the reader the more philosophical bits.
I'm sure if I didn't care about any of these characters, it'd be much harder to take some of the more heated debates seriously, but since they (and especially Marii) comes off as so likeable, it's hard not to care and let yourself go with the flow in the middle of how crazy things seem to be. Also.

The original story was finished in one long light-novel volume. So yes, as Blue-kun said, I'd expect the 3rd manga volume to be the last one.
As for yuri...nah, not gonna talk. Enjoy the story.

I thought the initial premise was interesting but I wasn't sure if they would go anywhere with it. But wow did things become dead serious and awesome in the recent chapters. I never would've expected things to take this direction.
Thumbs up. Many thumbs up.

Some of the unreleased chapters, from Dengeki Daioh (especially the one 2013-06)from makes me wonder how powerful Gaku-chan can really be, not to mention it makes you wonder what is left of her psyche.
This is based off of a light novel also, would seem to be a pretty deep one compared to most of the ones that get full translations.

The original novel actually predates both Steins;Gate and Madoka, having been relased in July 2009. S;G (game) only came out in October of that year, and Madoka is from 2011. Random information, but I do see a lot of people comparing it to both of these works, and I guess it deserves a bit more recognition! haha.
Anyway, yeah, these last chapters have been pretty insane. I like how the manga has all this weird stuff happening, and yet it *tries* to fit in these scientific explanations, even though most of them are coming from the girls studying on their own, rather than the author actually telling us WHAT is going on.
You can clearly see he did some research on the subject and is trying to make good use of it, but at the same time it's nice that i's also quite apparent that he is worried into making a very entertaining fictional story, and not some sort of textbook 101 quantum physics.
Anyway, the story definitely started for real now, and I'm loving how the 'disjointed' feel it has due to all the jumping between different worlds/possibilities complements SO well the fact that Gaku herself doesn't even seem to realize anymore "who" she is, as evidenced by one of the pages in chapter 11. Also, speaking of her, she's on a roll. Throughout the first volume I liked her, but I really never imagined she'd get to be such a complex and interesting character. The sheer dedication she puts into her goal is amazing, and even a little scary, as some have pointed out. If I had to say, the next chapters might show us some really ugly sides of "her", because if she was pissed before, after uncovering the "truth" of what happened, I'm sure she's ready to do anything.
Oh, and random trivia from the Tenko blog that made me laugh. Someone tried to read the english in page... 26, I think, from Chapter 11. The one on the PC screen. Turns out it's actually pretty understandable english, except instead of information about Yukari as one might except, the stuff written there is about a person called "Mariko Morikawa". A quick search on Google indicates that Mariko is/was nothing less than a quite popular Adult Video Idol, haha. Maybe Tsunashima was a fan and wanted to joke around with it?

This can be the "Fringe" of something big.,
Ce commentaire fait référence à cette édition : Fringe - Saisons 1 à 4 [Blu-ray] (Blu-ray)
I came to this series just looking for a time filler. I found my time filler and more. They hit the deck running and pull no punches so it does not take long to realize if you want to watch the series or not.
We start out with an inexplicable and mysterious problem. The public can never know but there may be some sort of diabolical cabal behind this problem. FBI agent Olivia Dunham (Anna Torv) is recruited to help track down the culprits. She is out of her depth in the science behind the problem and needs the help of an extraordinary institutionalized scientist Dr. Walter Bishop (John Noble) to help decipher the problem. Unfortunately Walter is not allowed to go out by himself so Olivia must also recruit his son Peter Bishop (Joshua Jackson) who also helps her and us interpret Walter's thoughts and fringe technology.
"Fringe" uses the standard go on forever series formula. First there is the immediate episode problem it either starts out at the front end or gets built up very shortly then we have our antagonist(s) usually temporary for this episode. We usually find that he has a good excuse to be a bad guy and we can empathize but they have to clean up the situation and live happily ever after. Laid over this is the extended series problem we get everything from vague hints to gratuitous gore. The antagonists (some likably evil) for the series sections may or may not die can mysteriously be written to come back and whose purposes are never totally explained so that we must watch the rest of the series. The advantage of having a "Fringe" sci-fi theme is that when they paint themselves into a corner the next episode just rewrites from another angle as if the corner never existed; this way we have multiple seasons without any problem of having to tie up loose ends or lose main characters.
You can buy the season separate or in different bundles. Some people worry about the cost of doing it one way or the other. The reality is how fast you are going to look at this. Are you going to have a Fringe marathon till your eyes bug out or use it as an occasional night out? Do the times, do the cost, and do the math.

Arcade Typing Tutor
By Alexander White
Open the Mac App Store to buy and download apps.
Arcade Typing Tutor is a program that makes learning to type fun! More engaging than the original missile defender arcade game on which it is based, Arcade Typing Tutor is the most entertaining way to learn how to type on the Mac!
Type the words below the asteroids and aliens to destroy them before they destroy your bases. Asteroids and aliens appear and move more quickly with each passing level.
What's New in Version 3.0.1
Fixed a freezing problem that would affect some users when a large number of asteroids was present on the screen.
Fixed a bug that would cause the "Word List" button to be deactivated at times.
Performance has been improved and flying saucers won't fire until they've entered onto the screen a short distance.

Nous avons passé une nuit au Holiday Inn de Salzbourg et nous serions bien volontiers restés plus longtemps car nous avons reçu un accueil très chaleureux, la chambre était super jolie/propre/confortable/silencieuse/avec belle vue, et le petit-déjeuner était délicieux. Nous avons marché jusqu'au centre-ville qui était très facilement accessible à pied à environ 15 minutes (en prenant notre temps pour prendre des photos etc.). Parking couvert payant mais sécurisé. Il me semble qu'ils ont une salle de gym disponible, mais nous n'étions pas à Salzbourg pour rester enfermés donc nous n'avons pas essayé cette salle. Très très bonne expérience. Nous y retournerons sans aucune hésitation.
My husband and I spent one night at the Holiday Inn in Salzburg and we would have happily stayed a few extra nights! Staff is efficient, helpful and very welcoming. Our room was spacious, very clean, comfortable, quiet and even with a nice view looking out our wide window. The breakfast was a delicious feast with a buffet. Local foods as well as traditional breakfast stuff was available. The location is ideal too because it was quiet and close enough to the downtown area where all the sights are. It took us about 15 minutes by foot to reach downtown, and that includes stopping for taking pictures, looking at the map, taking in the beauty of the buildings. A secured parking garage is available for a small fee (11 euros if I remember well) and is definitely worth the price. I think they have a gym but we were not there to excercize on an elliptical machine so we didn't try it!
We had a wonderful experience staying at this hotel and we recommend it highly. We'll be back!

Best Animated Movie Villains
The Contenders: Page 3
I love this villain. I even love the Jade armies. Best villain among all three movies.
Even Though Continental Drift Sucked
Captain Gutt Was One Of The Few Good Things About It
Not bad, keeping the new trend of surprise Disney villains up, I say pretty goodV 2 Comments
This is not a villain he just attacks dracula at one point then Dracula freezes him, that's it!
Did you know that he became a good guy in the end?
His hairpiece is just scary, and he doesn't care about anyone. In the first five minutes he's already made Vitruvius blind, and then he goes on to kill him!
Is simply diabolical because he killed vitruvius and forced bad cop to glue his own parents
To be honest, I actually think she's prettier than Snow White.
She Seriously Needs To Go To A Mental HospitalV 1 Comment
Before: "I would never shut you out." "It's True Love." "We finish each other's sandwiches."
After: "Your sister is dead because of you." "Oh Ana, if only there was someone out there who loved you."
What a change of heart. The next villain in my book is a combo of him and Chester V
"Oh Anna, if only there was someone out there who loved you." I love that line!
He is so awesome :D and very interesting as a character
Easily one of my favorites!
AMAZING PERFORMANCE DR FACILIER. Watch this movie. Every one uses Maleficent and says she's amazing a but the only reason why they say it is because she is original.. Dr has a great song. Great voodoo powers. He is evil and cruel. Very scary and freaky lair decorations. Just look up "friends on the other side" and his villain song will appear. Watch it. Tell me it is not scary. Because its scary. Now he is a perfect villain. Dr Facilier is the definition of villain.
Why is he so low? He's VOODOO!
ON 61? he should be higher
Evil, funny & sympathetic. And fashionable. This is a villain that you totally want to learn more about. Did you know that Peter mutilated his hand? He has a flying pirate ship, resides in a magical land disguised as a star & his greatest enemy is a boy around 7. He never ceases to interest or entertain. I hope for a Peter Pan 3, partly so I can see him again.

The group's actions drew strong reactions, both positive and negative, from the police, public officials, residents and the media. The group's distinctive uniform, a military type red beret and white insignia t-shirt, is now however uniformly recognized as a symbol of safety and security bringing comfort to residents and local business, community and political leaders around the world.

Rev. Gomes' legacy: A God for all mankind
As soon as I heard about the passing of the Rev. Peter Gomes, I wondered how many Bible thieves he came across when he arrived in heaven. Whatever the number, I'm sure he was glad to see them.
Gomes, the longtime Harvard Divinity School professor of Christian morals, died a few days ago of complications from a stroke. His life spanned just 68 years, but his professed understanding of God and the Bible is the kind of knowledge that transcended a single lifetime — and challenged the orthodoxy of religious purists.
In The Good Book, a best-seller he wrote in 1996, Gomes told the story of how some of his colleagues reacted when an anonymous donor offered to fill the pews of The Memorial Church at Harvard with a gift of Bibles. They warned that putting The Holy Book throughout the sanctuary would be an invitation to steal them.
DeWayne Wickham USA TODAY columnist
An interpreter
Disregarding that concern, Gomes accepted the Bibles, which he said over the years were "happily" lost to quite a few thieves.
That, in essence, was the nature of Gomes' ministry. He was more pastor than preacher; more interpreter of The Good Book than a literal enforcer of its every word. He'd rather have someone come to church and steal a Bible than stay away and never explore its pages. But as important as the Bible was to him, Gomes realized the harmful impact of its misuse. He constantly warned of those who either "trivialize" or "idolize" the Bible. Both, he said, "miss its dynamic, living, and transforming quality."
In fact, many of the world's enduring conflicts are waged in the name of religion, with each party claiming to have God on its side.
But Gomes said God doesn't pick the winners of wars, presidential elections, sports championships or music awards. When I asked him during a 1996 interview that I did for CBS News why people so often thank God when good things happen to them, Gomes turned the question on its head. "The great question is, 'What happens when you lose?' Did God abandon you, or did God cause you to lose? Or did God go over to the other side?" God, Gomes told me, doesn't take sides.
A Massachusetts-born conservative Baptist, Gomes was nothing if not a contrarian. For much of his life he was a black Republican who in 1991 announced that he was gay. Fifteen years later, he became a Democrat and backed the election of Deval Patrick, Massachusetts' first black governor.
Black intellectual
A past president of the Pilgrim Society, Gomes spoke with the authority and cadence of a New England Yankee and the passion of a black intellectual — an emotion that was nurtured during his stint on the faculty of Tuskegee Institute in Alabama, one of the nation's most prestigious black schools.
In a 60 Minutes interview in 1997, Gomes rocked the primacy of the spiritual beliefs of many in this country. God, he answered Morley Safer, is not an American; the Bible wasn't written in English; and when Jesus returns, he will not likely show up in Tulsa or some other American city. Gomes' religious beliefs had no patriotic anchor and established no supremacy of one secular group of people over another. In this life, he believed, those who would steal a Bible from church were just as likely to find a place in heaven as the people who worried that stocking pews with The Good Book would tempt a sinner to take one.
I hope he's right.

I've been making an effort to streamline the category tree in this wiki since a few days ago. There are some editing issues I'd like opinions from the admins and users here:
- Duplicated Categories : There are many instances of duplicated categories. I have seen in other wikis that some categories are duplicated on purpose. Are there categories here duplicated for a purpose? If so, please state them, otherwise I intend to merge them together.
- "Big Bang Theory" or "The Big Bang Theory" : They are duplicated as the main category. Which one do you prefer? The one with or without the article? I prefer the one with the article since it's same as the name of the show. But there are other categories start with "Big Bang Theory..." without the article, and they include many more pages.
- "Episodes" or "The Big Bang Theory episodes" : Again these are duplicated categories. I prefer simply "Episodes" since "TBBT" should be understood.
- Duplicated season pages : There are pages such as "List of The Big Bang Theory episodes (season 1)" and "Season 1" which are very similar to each other. The "List of... (season #)" pages are more detailed but have pages only up to season 6 while the "Season #" pages have up to season 8. However, I want to put their content into the category pages and then remove them. What is your opinion on this?
- Sorting of the names : There are a mix of sorting method for the names of the characters and cast here. Some names are sorted by the last names and some by first. While sorting with the last names is more formal, I prefer to sort them by the first names since most other wikis sort the names this way, and the names are more easily identified in the category pages.
Please give me your opinions on the issues above. And feel free to give other suggestions that may help to improve the category tree. :)

Congestion charging - A special WTPP number discussing through a few well written, evidence based articles. And you?
From: John Whitelegg [mailto:j.whitelegg@...]
Sent: Saturday, November 25, 2006 12:31 PM
To: Eric.Britton@...
First of all I would welcome this discussion in WTPP, advanced through a few well written, evidence based articles. I will take this idea a step further if someone let's me have names, possible subjects and e-mail contact details.
The subject is indeed fascinating but we all have to be very open to questioning the metrics we use. I remember teaching transport at Lancaster University for many years and focussing on cost benefit analysis. I'm sure methodologies have now moved on but at that time (1979-1993) it was quite possible to demonstrate that building very destructive new roads was "good" because the time savings multiplied up across thousands of car trips produced a big number described as monetary benefits and there was no method of describing or quantifying the impact of that traffic on nature, environment, climate change, children, health or elderly people trying to cross the road or the that matter the loss of independent child mobility in navigating and negotiating life in a city (see Hillman, Adams and Whitelegg, Policy Studies Institute, London, 1990)
Congestion charging in London has led to large increases in bus use, walking and cycling which has a direct positive impact on public health (obesity, cardiovascular disease and early onset diabetes). Its also much more pleasant to walk and cycle around London than it used to be.
The Swedish vision zero road safety policy is based on rejecting the "economic model" and substituting an ethical basis for road safety interventions.
Let's get the arguments clearly articulated and out in the open.
very best wishes

Subject: Stockholm Congestion Pricing Scheme (Prof. Prud'homme showing a net social economic loss for the scheme, while Eliasson shows a net gain. )
My economics isn't good enough to go through the detailed analysis.
But what is striking about both calcuations is that neither attempts to include a figure for the social benefits of having less traffic in the city area (other than the direct social benefits such as reduced accidents and health impacts of reduced emissions.
(And Remy Prudhomme does acknowledge that he hasn't analysed distributional effects).
Yet the 'social gradient' of traffic, even in Sweden, is that richer people drive and poorer people suffer the effects of traffic - in terms of noise, lower community cohesion, perceived risk, etc. The same social gradient can be seen for more vulnerable members of the community (young, old, etc).
Of course, this may be a way of saying that cost benefit analysis is a poor tool for dealing with social equity. And it may be worse: both calculations depend heavily on calculations of time saved and time lost, and looking at Eliasson there's a time calculation for car travellers (in which business and distribution time is regarded as more valuable than private journey time, but there doesn't seem to be any calculation for the time gains to people using other modes, as a result of reduced congestion. Some time seems to be more equal than others.
It would be interesting to see an analysis of both papers by someone who was able to cover the economics and the underlying assumptions with an appropriate degree of expertise, although I suspect we'd see a more interesting paper from a political economist than from a transport economist :-). One for the WTPP?
