Oblivion (April 2013)
Directed by Joseph Kosinski ('Tron: Legacy', or if you didn't like the film then he also wrote and directed the 'Gears of War' commercial "Mad World"), 'Oblivion' is an original sci-fi film (adapted from Joseph Kosinski's comic of the same name) about a repairman on a post-apocalyptic Earth (brought about by an alien invasion?). Tasked with repairing drones (whose purpose is to collect vital information left on Earth after an exodus), Jack Harper (Tom Cruise) slowly discovers secrets about his life (and the world) that puts the future of humanity in his hands.
I don't know....I'm kind of sick of Tom Cruise, I can't watch & respect a man who in real life worships scientology.
Plus this is just another movie for Tom to run away from his gay thoughts....
I'm going against popular opinion and state out loud that I don't give two hoots about Scientology. :heh:
I've always enjoyed Cruise's movies, and I see nothing from what's been parceled out so far to deter me from eagerly anticipating this next movie of his. :)
Came in for Elder Scrolls, Left Dissapointed.
P.S. to the idiot, That was a Joke. No offense to anyone else, Just a little tired of children on these forums. =\
I get that it was a joke, I just like that family guy scene and just not a fan of Tom cruise. Stop taking your hate of family guy out on me just because you clearly worship Futurama (even though it is excellent)
....What? I'm not hating on you or family guy. :heh: i love family guy and futurama.
I love Tom cruise the actor, but i hate Tom cruise the man with a passion. I remember years ago he was doing an austrailian interview and the guy asked him about his relationship with katie holmes and Tom became so angry he threatened to end the interview right away!, then the week after he was proclaiming his love for her on Oprah jumping up and down on the chair....yeah i really hate him.
Apart from that the movie was great i just seen it lol
Good film this..just got home from watching it..the soundtrack was great also.
Oblivion was a good movie, but the soundtrack by M83 made it great. 8.5/10.
I haven't seen it yet, but from what I hear the visuals are amazing, the score is quite good but the story is pretty generic and predictable.
^ I've seen it, that's pretty much it.
But I guess it was fun, Tom Cruise is cool, I guess.
I saw it last week, the story and setting could have been amazing if the scenarist wasn't on drug when he wrote it.
More linear, you can't possibly do it.
It was good. Nothing really to write home about (the music and cinematography were the best features, then the very nice CGI work). I think I appreciated the film more than I liked it. This was a very competent and well designed "mature" sci-fi drama. I say mature because the film treats its audience like they are intelligent individuals that can appreciate a more character-based sci-fi drama rather than a simple blow-'em-up.
Very simple story with some decent character beats, even if everything felt a little rote, cliche, and too simplistic at times. Still, I vastly prefer even this underwhelming sci-fi film to soulless extravaganza sci-fi films like the Transformers series and that particular ilk of the genre. True, there could have been a far more compelling storyline involved, but what we have is almost elegant in its simplicity and design. It's hard to actually like Oblivion, but it is even harder to dislike the film. 70/100.
Unlike some others, I don't expect an art house film out of everything I watch. :heh:
I give it a 90/100. For big-budget hollywood sci-fi films, I can't think of anything better in the last few years.
Tom Cruise, due to numerous reasons, is probably one of the most under-rated Hollywood (again, emphasis on Hollywood) actors of his time, and I think he delivered another fine performance. :)
Hey, All! First post here.
Saw the film on opening night in IMAX (my first time seeing a feature-length film in that format).
My biggest problem was that of my eyeballs drying out, because I only blinked about once every three minutes!
Certainly the most beautifully-designed Science Fiction film I've yet seen.
Dynamic tag cannot be rendered. (PrintableThread)
Of course, now I have to see it again on a digitally-projected IMAX, because our theater used 70mm film, and the image was a bit on the blurry side. But the GRANDEUR certainly came through on that first viewing!
Not gonna lie, my first thought when I saw the trailer was "shame it's tom cruise", they need to give new actors a chance, discover new talent, etc. Looks interesting, gives me truman show vibes.
this was actually a pretty good movie. i was happy with it. the twists weren't something i saw coming, and Olga Kurylenko was beautiful in the movie. not to mention Oblivion is in my top 25 most played songs on iTunes.

The St. John's Board of Trade is welcoming a new federal plan to help businesses train employees, although its head says the money will be useless in Newfoundland and Labrador without people to fill the jobs.
Federal Finance Minister Jim Flaherty announced details of a skills development scheme on Thursday during the annual budget.
Denis Mahoney, the chair of the St. John's Board of Trade, said the demand for workers in the province continues to mount as large construction projects come online.
"We need more people in this province," Mahoney said.
"Immigration is part of that solution and we were disappointed to hear that the government of Canada didn't address that in the budget this year."
Newfoundland and Labrador Finance Minister Jerome Kennedy all but shrugged as he reacted to the budget, seeing nothing exciting or surprising.
Kennedy, however, did applaud the training program, which calls on Ottawa, the provinces and businesses to contribute $5,000 each to train a worker.
"We get so little money from the federal government, approximately 10 or 11 per cent of our revenue, [so] any time we can receive money with matching funds we generally invest in that," Kennedy said.
The details of the program will be worked out over the next year.
Newfoundland and Labrador Federation of Labour president Lana Payne was not impressed by Flaherty's budget speech.
"This is an austerity budget, there's no doubt about it," she said.
"This really is not about delivering change for the economy, it really is a budget about one thing and that's how do we get to surplus in time for an election."
Payne said the situation is especially grim for those who need training to get a job.
"The federal government is also taking back a good portion of the money that it had allocated to the employment insurance fund to deliver training," she said.

If you're keeping count, you know the present is certainly not ours.
The wealthy are hogging up all the money. Uncle Scam is a basket case that can't even run an honest election.
The entire economy is set up like a giant cattle ranch with us as the cows. The stupid bad guys are running free,
murdering us with bullets and drugs. The smart bad guys are running companies, selling us bullets and drugs.
We The People are working overtime, yet still picking which bills to not pay every month.
I'm writing this in January 2017, a week before Trump's inauguration, feeling like we are about to reboot the
first decade of this millenium. Reboot as in the bigger bolder faster turbocharged 4K HD on steroids
with a sparkling drop of retzin version! (in case you aren't getting it - that means bad. VERY bad.)
It doesn't take a genius to figure out that money in the electoral system is the problem.
It's bad enuff with giant corporations doing everything they can to squeeze us dry while ruining the planet,
but when money starts writing the rules we live by, eventually we wont be able to live at all.
Money has been the lifeblood of politics from the beginning, but generally speaking, it's been kept at a level.
Now that the party-of-the-rich has nearly complete control and the president himself is (presumably) a
multi-billionaire, job #1 for them will be to lock in the next and all future elections. Then we're totally,
completely and permanently screwed.
Do not make the mistake of thinking America can't possibly become an official oligarchy rather than just the
virtual oligarchy it is now. Those rich suckers can count. And they are counting on your apathy and inattention
to let their congressmen, senators, governors and Trumps tweek the levers just a little bit more without
any pesky watchdogs interfering.
Trust me, it'll be GREAT! You wont believe how unbelievable it will be, believe me! FANTASTIC trust me.
I, for one, do not trust them. I can count, and can see what this adds up to: they win, we lose.
My name is JO 753. I am running for President of The United States of America because I believe that
We The People still have a chance to own the future and I can help make it happen.
It's not enuff to talk about how bad the current administration is and say I can do better. It's too tempting to
pick up the weapons of party politics that forget the wisdom of together we stand, especially when you can
claim 'they started it'. No. 'Better than the other guy' is just an excuse to set a low bar. There has to be a
promise based on actual ideas, positive ideals, real goals.
Set our sights with optimism on the best we can imagine, not the minimum we can settle for.
Any fool can think up ways it can go wrong. Real leaders think up ways to make it happen.
If you've looked me up on the web, you may have gotten the impression that I am some sort of starry eyed
idealistic idiot-genius who doesn't know human nature so can't understand why his plans will never fly in the
real world. Or you may have a strong sense of true conservatism and feel that I'm a threat to those values.
I proudly say YES, I am past the leading edge of standard progressive policy. I say when facts & lojik are on
my side, I don't care if the rest of the human race says no. I say aim for the best future, the perfect solution,
the highest ideal because aiming for less will surely get you less.
The federal government is the 'brain' of the nation. It has to not only be cognizant of today's reality, but
both the risks and opportunities of the future for as far into the future as possible. If it fails, at best, we
will not realize our full potential. At worst, we will find our end.
The person with the job of directing the federal government must have the greatest level of intelligence,
forsight, empathy and imagination available to humans. With luck, it will be enuf.

Fall is finally here, and I'm loving Pantone's color picks for the season! Koi and Acai (purple and orange) are some of the contrasting color trends you'll see popping up in magazines and in the aisles of your favorite retail stores.
The look I pulled together for this months South Paw Style: Get the Look is the perfect outfit for when you're on the go, but you still need an edge of pretty and polished sophistication. It features an ombre sheer blouse from Maurices and flare stretch jeans from BKE. The dark wash denim takes jeans up a notch from casual to pulled together.
I think my Koi inspired hand wrapped Swarovski crystal rose gold filled necklace and 1 inch earrings set are the perfect mix of colors for the Fall season. They have an amazing range of rich hues, from fiery ruby to browns and burnt oranges. The colors in T Tahari's tri-tone stack of geometric rings mingle beautifully with the crystals' Autumn hues.
In my mind, a tan purse and shoe is the only way to go with this color combo. They pull the entire outfit together. The Fiorelli envelope clutch is a great daytime errands purse when you don't want a big, heavy bag on your shoulder. And Forever 21's asymmetrical stiletto pumps have padded insoles so you don't have to sacrifice comfort for style.
What do you love about Fall, and what is your favorite piece in this outfit? Let me know in the comments below!

Christianity is a highly complex phenomenon, a very complicated religion with many different denominations and strands – Orthodox, Anglican, Catholic, Protestant Evangelical, Charismatic and so on. The Church is a very divided community. Reconciliation is needed – within and across the denominations.

Should Christians be involved in politics?Comments Read more »
Of course, there is always the danger that we compromise our standards. Because of this, some Christians dismiss the whole world of politics as something they should not be involved with. Sometimes, though, obeying Jesus' command to love our neighbour means it is important for us to take a stand with or against the powers that be. We can serve our fellow humans by supporting good governance and backing people in high positions.

Tijuana Mexico Rainaves planta de manufactura! EXCELENTE!
...tisk, tisk, tisk...
I thought you were heading to the Ranger game? HOT HOT HOT
you misspelled 'tsk'
Great game... lost 7-3 though. Had this white trash family in front of us that was giving their 1 year old daughter coke through a sippee cup.
I need to retrofit all of the ballparks clocks to smartlines...
The new Cowboys stadium is all WM. thats what 1.3 billion will get you. (what a waste of money)
Also, Home Depot is now advertising for sprinkler systems. Without a license number and the verbiage about TCEQ regulation, they are in violation. GO GET EM DLEE!!!
Looks like a great way to get a $750 upgrade from an 85 year old couple!
That is not how it works. That HD stuff works like a referral program. The work gets done by licensed contractors, not by an in house crew.
That said, knowing the products they carry, that sign is a sad, sad, joke.
Kiril, I know that. I have a friend that does phantom screens for lowes... They take like 17 percent of the job price as commission. However, per new tceq rules: it is illegal to advertise for any type of irrigation work without listing the LI number. Also, they have to use a license number solely for hd. Only one li number can be used per company... No sharing numbers.
I wear a disguise when I have to get micro stuff from those dumps.
oh gosh, same thing here. i had to go in to get 1/2 pipe and a 3/4 x 1/2 st 90. of course the 1/2 pipe is sch 40... stuck in the aisle with all of the others getting the 99cent orbit heads that are worse quality than the RB us400 cheapo heads.

Westermo MRD-310 provides effective communication between waste water pump stations and the control room
Laholmsbuktens VA has streamlined its communication between pumping stations and the control room using the MRD-310 3G router from Westermo; a solution that saves money and increases system security and control.
Laholmsbuktens VA is responsible for the public water supply and waste water treatment in Halmstad and Laholm in southwestern Sweden. The activities include diversion and treatment of waste water and management of surface water.
Until recently, Laholmsbuktens VA's only option to communicate with its pumping stations was via leased line and dial-up modems; an obsolete solution which occasionally requires extensive servicing. Laholmsbuktens VA has experienced problems with humidity and water affecting the cables in the ground and causing the data communications to stop. In other locations where new stations are built, terrestrial cable is not even available. Investing in new cable is an expensive process, so Laholmsbuktens VA has chosen to solve their problems with wireless broadband technology.
By using the MRD-310 3G router from Westermo, Laholmsbuktens VA has modernized the data communications to the pumping equipment in a cost effective, safe and efficient manner. Unlike the previous solution, wireless communications are not affected by weather conditions or other elements that may interfere with terrestrial communications. This solution also has the ability to communicate with remote locations at a cost of a 3G subscription, in comparison to the extensive and expensive work to invest in and maintain kilometers of new copper cable.
The previous solution was very slow as a dial-up modem had to call up each station to retrieve the current status. The MRD-310 allows for a much more effective real-time overview of all stations in the system. System monitoring can now be carried out on a completely different level than before.
"Our new solution is still in its infancy, and the possibilities are huge," say Gunnar Vallin and
Lars Bengtsson, electrical technicians at Laholmsbuktens VA. "One idea is to allow the pumping stations to communicate with each other automatically. If a pump reaches its maximum capacity, we can set the MRD-310 to connect to other pumps and stop them from sending more water. The MRD-310 units lay the foundations for a network that can be expanded for future needs.", says Gunnar.
"We've had some problems with the terrestrial network, but basically had none at all with the 3G solution and the MRD-310. We are very pleased with how it works and this helps us to increase our quality and service level to our customers", says Gunnar.
Laholmsbuktens VA will continue to install the MRD-310 in new pump stations, but also upgrade existing stations if necessary. The solution was implemented in the Halmstad municipality, but is already exported to the neighbouring municipality of Laholm, which at once realized the benefits of 3G technology and the MRD-310.

In a warm-up for the opening ceremony of the Commonwealth Games – which will also be held at Celtic Park – Sunday's Scottish League Cup final will see the east end of Glasgow awash with outlandish costumes, incomprehensible accents and loud haggling over souvenirs.
That's the locals for you, but Aberdeen and Inverness Caledonian Thistle and their supporters will also be on hand to invest the occasion with a contest that was almost wholly unforeseen, even when Celtic and Rangers departed the tournament in its infancy.
Aberdeen are clear favourites – on Friday night they were priced at 10/11, with Caley Thistle at 14/5 – because they disposed of Celtic in the William Hill Scottish Cup and because they subsequently also beat the champions-elect at Pittodrie and ended Fraser Forster's record run of clean sheets with a spectacular strike by Jonny Hayes that was on Friday granted the accolade of SPFL goal of the month for February
Much has been made of the 40,000 tickets snapped up by Aberdeen fans – the club has also accounted for 3000 hospitality tickets – and the fact that they would have taken every available seat but for the police insistence that their support should not occupy upper tiers of the stand allocated to Caley Thistle. The ticket sales phenomenon caught Derek McInnes by surprise, but he was certainly not the only one ambushed by the surge.
"People at the club who have been there a long time didn't anticipate that so you would think they would be better judges than me," said the Dons' manager, who yesterday signed a deal which extends his contract by two years to June, 2017. "It has caught everybody's attention and it's given huge encouragement to everybody in and around the club.
"Every position at the club has been busy, with the ticket office and commercial department trying to make sure we are ready to cater for everybody. The energy about the club, the energy about the city, is exactly how we wanted it.
"The best way for it to continue is to keep getting to cup finals and hopefully winning."
The unleashing of fervour in the north-east of Scotland is a response to the feeling that the many frustrations endured since the days of Alex Ferguson can be banished this season by success in both the knockout competitions and a runners-up finish in the SPFL Premiership. Inverness inadvertently fuelled this sense of destiny when they endured successive 5-0 batterings by Celtic and Dundee United.
John Hughes, a former central defender but a manager who takes up wide positions in a controversy, staged a pantomime song and dance about having to play a postponed league game against Hibernian on Wednesday while Aberdeen had a free week. The game did him a turn, however, because the goalless draw dispersed the worst vibes of the two drubbings and allowed his players to turn their thoughts to the final in a positive frame of mind.
Moreover, Greg Tansey and Marley Watkins – red carded in the Scottish Cup quarter final debacle against Dundee United, got their suspensions out of the way to be free for the final. There is a case for thinking that the loss of five goals in consecutive games was, in fact, the product of a team with a showpiece event in mind, however unprofessional that might be.
And Aberdeen have first hand experience of the Highlanders' resilience. They had a 4-0 lead at half time in their league visit to Caledonian Stadium on December 21 but had to sweat their victory as Caley Thistle scored three times after the break.
In fact, all three league meetings of these sides have been settled by a single goal. In September, Scott Vernon saw Aberdeen to a 1-0 victory at Pittodrie but that was reversed at the same venue in January when Danny Williams netted for Inverness.
Depending on your point of view, Caley Thistle either rode their luck or were handed a bumper helping when Richie Foran lunged into a reckless challenge on Hibs' Sam Stanton on Wednesday and escaped with just a caution. Either way, Hughes' best player is available to face Aberdeen.
McInnes sees the trap into which his team could stumble. "Just because they're having a good season, just because they're talented, doesn't mean to say it will automatically come on Sunday," he said.
For Aberdeen, this is the chance to end 19 years without a trophy. Inverness can grace 20 years of existence with their first. A historic opportunity will take the field alongside both sides.

The meaning behind a person's given name is quite a fascinating topic, don't you agree? How many times have you wondered whether the actual meaning behind your name matches the person that you are? Well, Tony Bloom's does and here's why.
Tony was actually born as an Anthony Bloom in town of Brighton in the United Kingdom. Anthony/Tony is an English name that had Roman and Latin origins and has been in use since the medieval ages. It means "highly praiseworthy". People with such a name are said to be influential and has a great command and leadership among people.
Does it actually match the person that is Mr. Bloom? Is he really a highly praiseworthy man, a leader and an influencer? Here are a few noteworthy things about him. We'll let you decide.
His love for the sport began at a young age with several members of his family supporting football and investing in it not only emotionally but financially as well. As a matter of fact, three generations and over forty years of Blooms have done so. His grandpa Harry served as the Brighton & Hove Albion F.C. vice chairman in the 1970s and his uncle Ray was a director in the 1980s. It was no surprise when he followed suit in 2009 and became its chairman up to the present.
Before he became chairman, Tony has already supported the sport and the club since the year 2000 as one of its major investors and stockholders. He was known to have helped 'personally' finance the American Express Community Stadium (aka Amex and formerly the Falmer Stadium) as well as the American Express Elite Football Performance Centre which are both currently operational.
Because of his contributions and devotion to the Brighton & Hove Albion Football Club and the sport in general, he was awarded as the Brightonian of the Year in the same year that he became chairman of the said club.
In order to fight poverty in the United Kingdom, Europe, Asia and Africa, he has founded a charity called the Bloom Foundation together with fellow trustees Linda Bloom, Adam Franks, Marc Sugarman and Marcelle Lester. Tony Bloom is also known to ardently support the cause of his wife who was previously diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis. She too set up a charity called the OMS (Overcoming Multiple Sclerosis).

ApolloThemes Black
plain black theme for apollo
plain black theme for apollo
Smooth theme, but needs widget This is the best (free) theme for Apollo that I have been able to find. But the widget still sticks out like a sore thumb being white on my otherwise dark themed phone.
Much needed theme Great theme, but would be fantastic with a few more features. Things like the widget and search bar still come up as white
Great theme Great theme for Apollo and goes great with the rom im using. But would be nice to see the widget themed as well and then you get my 5th star for review lol
Uggg leee yapp Theme still flashes white when I open it. Why choose white as default? No app does that. I reallyvthinknthis is he ugliest music player I've seen. I'm on cm9 so I'm forced to have it but man is this a crappy looking app.
How do you install I know this has nothing to do with the theme but I just got my samsung galaxy s3 and I dont know how to add
Great theme Works perfectly for me on my Epic running AOKP B38. The tabs use the default system color, so they need to be changed with a ROM theme rather than an app theme.

Hello world!! Yes, I'm safe and sound, on the Aurora Australis on our way west to Casey. It's so good to be back in touch and on ourway home!
Arriving on Aurora Australis was like returning to Australia after a long trip away. Friendly Australians to greet and welcome us, offer us cups of tea, make us feel at home. The relief of being safe and sound. Thanks flowed genuinely and profusely from all of us as we arrived.
I've got such a lot to write about – so much has happened insuch a short time.
Two days ago, Thursday morning, we were still stuck. Still in limbo, with no expectation that the next day would be any different to the last. We knew that despite improved weather that our rescue ship the Aurora Australis was still 2 nautical miles from Xue Long the Chinese icebreaker, and so the plan of us landing on the Xue Long's helideck and being transported by barge to the AA was not about to eventuate in a hurry.
So that meant the Antarctic Writers Festival could go ahead. Was that really just the day before yesterday? We erected a magnificent orange and blue 10m diameter dome tent on the ice in glorious sunshine. The festival was fabulous. Ten or so of us shared some pieces we had written during the journey, and enjoyed each other's company. It was a great way to keep up morale and combat the limbo listlessness that was settling over us like a fog . As we concluded, and headed back to the ship for lunch, Ben commented that the tent could stay up all afternoon and would be a great place to hang out with books and music.
So the call after lunch for volunteers to help dismantle the tent was the first sign that things were on the move. We were briefed a short time later about the negotiations between Xue Long and AA. Given the good weather window they had agreed that the XL helicopter could potentially land on an ice floe adjacent to the AA.
Marking out the perimeter of our helipad with Milo and soy sauce quickly followed the tent dismantling. I watched amused as an Adelie penguin investigated the soy sauce, flexing its neck muscles, vigorously moving its head around as it was either overwhelmed or intrigued by the smell.
Things unfolded quickly. The shared emotions we all felt: grateful, relieved, and excited, were palpable when the massive Chinese helicopter landed at 6pm to assess the suitability of our helipad. The Chinese crew disembarked, and set to work efficiently finalising the set up to suit the rescue mission. The helipad passed muster. We stood on deck and applauded as someof the Chinese arrived on-board, thanking them profusely. They were heroes.
Eighty percent chance of going within the hour announced Greg, depending on the suitability of the helipad on the ice-floe at the other end.
By 6.30 our bags were completely packed, and the luggage being hauled out to the ice. The helicopter arrived to pick up the first group not long after 7. I felt such a mix of emotions as they headed off: relief that it really was happening; awareness of the significance of the event, and excitement about beginning our journey home.
By the time the helicopter was due back 45 minutes later formy group – the second of five – I was mostly just excited. But then the sadness in leaving the Shokalskiy really hit home. It had been our home for the last month, and we were leaving the ship and 22 crew still stuck, probably to be cut out by the huge Russian icebreaker Fedorov or the US Polar Star at some indeterminate time in the future.
I thought about how what we had been through had changed my perspective about ships. Previously I'd thought that a ship is a ship is a ship. But it's not. A ship is home. You place your trust in the ship and the crew. One's life depends on one's ship.
I hugged Maxim, thanked Sergei as we proceeded out to the ice.
I've never travelled in a helicopter before. It was mesmerising to stand under its double whirring blades, with a cirrus flecked blue sky above, noise and wind enveloping me. It was a 15 minute trip, crammed in with luggage as well, and from my seat not much of a view, but a big 'wow' factor as we flew over kilometres of ice floes.
The Aurora Australis crew were fabulous as we arrived, and since. We've been made to feel at home and welcomed into the routine of the ship by everyone. And to a person there has been great acceptance from them that our rescue was just something that had to be done, even though it had upset plans, and put them out considerably. It's been a real insight into how things work in Antarctica. The A factor is the essence of the Antarctic Treaty. It is such a harsh environment with so few people, that survival relies on everyone looking out for everyone else. Things happen,and plans change.
We went to bed exhausted. Such a huge day.
I woke early yesterday morning. We hadn't made much progress through the ice overnight. I sat outside for an hour before breakfast on the top deck in the wind and sunshine. Sitting alone, looking over ice fields stretching to the horizon I felt an almost contradictory combination of feeling safe, at peace, but in awe of the expanse, the majesty, and the power of nature. Feeling small and insignificant despite being ensconced and safe in a big and powerful ship.
Nature shows her upper hand here in Antarctica. She is in control. Yes we are changing her with global warming, but like a lion roaring when disturbed, that doesn't mean she is becoming meeker, milder or more able to be subdued.
All yesterday we moved backwards and forwards through the ice. It was heavy going. We needed all the power of the ship to crunch, push, barge, smash our way through. A small part of me worried about whether the Aurora Australis would become the third ship beset here.
We made it through to open water last night. I was up on the bridge when we did. An iceberg on the horizon glowed orange in front of the setting and then rising sun. Amidst the stunning beauty conversations swirled around the bridge about whether now that we had reached open water would we would be heading onto Casey or staying put to support the still beset Xue Long.
The Xue Long Captain had rung Murray our Aurora Australis Master earlier in the evening to say they were not in danger and were happy for the AA to return to Casey. But that decision was in the hands of the maritime authorities.
The ship was in a holding pattern as I went to bed. I thought of the Shokalskiy crew, and the 111 people on board the Xue Long, who are going to be in a holding pattern for alot longer than us. The Shokalskiy and Xue Long crews are the ones paying the biggest price of our becoming beset, and I want to thank them profusely, and let them know that we are all thinking about them.
The decision to sail onto Casey was made in the early hours of this morning. So Aurora Australis is now back on mission, sailing at 12 knots towards the west, and we are on our way home. We are due at Casey in 4 days and in Hobart potentially around the 20th January – but this won't be confirmed until after we leave Casey.
But our relief is bittersweet. We won't be able to feel completely at ease until the Shokalskiy and Xue Long are also on their way home. What's more, this experience will live on in us for a long time as a humbleness, a knowledge that Antarctica is a place where beauty and harshness exist side by side and a place where ones survival depends on cooperation, collaboration and people putting themselves out for others.
Thanks from the bottom of my heart to all involved ingetting us here safely.

Edmonton and Calgary are struggling with a lack of affordable housing, while Calgary's shelters run at capacity with winter looming. Both cities are also grappling with the infrastructure and transportation costs of on-going urban sprawl and the servicing costs of new neighbourhoods.
Alberta's big cities need affordable housing, and they need infill development that can attract families to the urban core. Both cities also have development industries that have grown and sustained themselves on the large margins of cheap suburban land and development.
The Premier has stated that he wants a market solution to Alberta's affordable housing problem. The situation doesn't need ideology, it needs concrete plans, of the sort that we didn't see in this by-election. It needs housing starts; affordable homes and rental units, in places where a car isn't a necessity to live. With some initial support, the non-profit sector could put the housing that Alberta's cities need, on the market.
A few examples:
It's called the Quint Development Corporation. Founded by residents with the support of government, it's been building affordable housing in Saskatoon for almost twenty years.
It's called the Central Neighbourhoods Development Corporation and was founded in 2007 to help revitalize inner-city Winnipeg neighbourhoods.
"A community development corporation (CDC) is a not-for-profit organization incorporated to provide programs, offer services and engage in other activities that promote and support community development. CDCs usually serve a geographic location such as a neighborhood or a town. They often focus on serving lower-income residents or struggling neighborhoods. They can be involved in a variety of activities including economic development, education, community organizing and real estate development. These organizations are often associated with the development of affordable housing." – Wikipedia
I received my introduction to the concept of community development corporations while volunteering time to work on Edmonton's Transit Oriented Development Guidelines for the EFCL. The city had brought in a consultant to speak to TOD, best practices, affordable housing, etc. The part that stood out to me was on affordable housing and how, in their experience, most affordable housing around transit/light-rail in the U.S. was being built by non-profit development corps.
For us community volunteers in attendance, the idea stuck, and we suggested it for inclusion into the final report for Mayor Mandel's Community Sustainability Taskforce. Non-profit organizations that with some initial seed money, could take on a role building infill and affordable housing in some of Edmonton's older neighbourhoods. The suggestion unfortunately wasn't included in the Elevate Report, but it's still being pursued.
With the development and housing issues that Edmonton and Calgary are currently facing, it's an idea that we should begin discussing on a provincial scale.
Initiating non-profit redevelopment agencies in Alberta's cities isn't just a way to help boost housing stock and increase neighbourhood density. They're an avenue for community development; giving residents a chance to help guide the built-form of their neighbourhoods and educating residents on the trials and costs of building in older communities.
Our older neighbourhoods also struggle with derelict properties, and there are few legislative tools for municipalities to take action on them. A derelict property sees its municipal taxes decrease, while becoming a blight on the community. A new cities charter may or may not give municipal councils tools such as tax levies to encourage redevelopment of a property. Having a community-owned developer who's ready and willing to purchase and rebuild a problem property into an asset for the community, helps regardless.
Between Government and 'the market' there's a way to help build affordable housing, transit-oriented development, and alternatives to urban sprawl. It's worked in the U.S., and it's worked in other provinces. Community league volunteers have been talking about it for years. It's time for MLAs and Councillors to do the same.

I was at the red carpet working it!
Well, the film is coming to DVD (regular, Blu-Ray, and Special Edition -- Disney milking it!), and the blu-ray edition will have:
EXCLUSIVE TO DISNEY BLU-RAY(TM): "Enter The Maelstrom" -- Take An Immersive, Eye-Popping Tour In A New Interactive Way Like Never Before
The Pirate Maestro: The Music Of Hans Zimmer
Deleted Scenes
Seamless Menus
Bloopers Of The Caribbean
Keith & The Captain: On Set With Johnny Depp And The Rock Legend
Anatomy Of A Scene: The Maelstrom
The Tale Of Many Jacks
Hoist The Colours
Masters Of Design
Inside The Brethren Court
The World Of Chow Yun-Fat
This three-quel is not the best of the franchise, but it's a fitting ending to the saga.
You can read my review of the film here, or watch my red-carpet world premier special when I asked the director, Gore Verbinski, if this is truly the last of the franchise!
The bottom-line? Thank God for the pause button, so you can stand up, relax, before finishing the film's 168 minutes length.

Bale is in talks to star as John Connor (now in his 30s) in the fourth installment of "Terminator," now called "Terminator Salvation: The Future Begins."
McG (why him?) is directing the project for Warner Bros.
So Bale's film future is shaping up to be:
Summer 2008 "The Dark Knight"
Summer 2009 "Terminator Salvation: The Future Begins"
The actor, known to bounce from indie-fare to commercial flicks, is also attached to "Killing Pablo," about the late Colombian drug lord Pablo Escobar (I just finished reading the gripping Rolling Stone article about America's failed war on drugs).
I love Christian Bale! I had a great interview with him for "The Prestige." He's incisive and thoughtful, and sweet!

I didn't bother seeing Doug Liman's latest film, JUMPER, after it was killed by pretty much every single critic. I will check it out on dvd. However, this rejected poster, which I glimpsed at http://www.joblo.com/, is quite cool, and is certainly sexier than any of the traditional posters that Fox ended up using.

I am amazed how respectful players are today! They never seem to question what a coach is telling them.
How does the saying go, "Believe none what you hear, and half of what you see?" With each new player I take on, I am beginning to consider there is a variation of this saying, "My way or the highway, so why question."
When asked, "Why are you approaching hitting, fielding or pitching a certain way," most make a quick attempt at transferring blame; "my coach [fill in the blank with an excuse of your choice]."
I am sorry, but I don't buy it! Hey, that reminds me of a saying, "Believe none what your hear…" Yep! None.
So when a player and I first meet, I make it very clear all I am doing is passing on knowledge. Knowledge they need to make their own, but as the student, they have the right to accept it, question it, and yes, even ignore it.
After all it is the player's job to UNDERSTAND what it takes to be a good baseball player?
At the same time it is true some coaches do communicate better than others, and we have all witnessed the "my way or the highway" coach, but I believe the majority are trying to be a good teacher. Each of us secretly hoping every player we worked with became a major league superstar.
Rather than find fault, maybe it makes sense for both the player and us as coaches to rethink how we communicate; players asking questions and coaches sharing knowledge. To help I recommend you order Glenn Moore's Success Guide for Athletes HERE
As coaches and players we just need to learn how to use the Right Words in much the same way the gentleman discovered in the video below, .
Until Next Blog,

i've been reading some novel and i cant stop reading it, just an habit of me. once i read one book and i really like it i'll read it non stop.
so im back and im wanna joing this 31 Days Challenge :) so it'll star today :)
day one challenge is Red nail polish and i choose OPI - Off with her red, which is a limited edition from Alice in wonderland. then i decided to stamp it with my Founxad plate (i really forget the name and how to write it!) with the 2030 from China Glaze Chrome collection. and on the ring finger i decided to apply the Justin bieber collection and add some heart

For regular people, this is not a big deal. The fact that I've kept track of today's date alone should prove how much of a deal this is for me. One year ago I bought and brought home our fiddle leaf fig and I've KEPT IT ALIVE FOR THAT ENTIRE TIME.
"Wow. That is in no way exciting. Thanks for wasting my time, Alex", I hear you say. But for me, I've never been able to keep a plant alive for more than 6 weeks, maximum. In my entire 31 years. I stopped buying plants years ago for the plant's sake as bringing one home was basically death row for them. Except I changed my mind when I saw a this fiddle leaf fig in B&Q Liffey Valley and I took a chance and brought it home.
As I said in my original blog post, fiddle leaf fig plants are very trendy these days. I've always just liked the look of them so that's why I bought one vs. their trendiness. Did I mention that fiddle leaf figs are some of the pickiest and most difficult plants to look after? Really great choice for old black thumbs here. But that's why I'm so proud. I kept the pickiest damn plant alive for a year. And it grew! By 7 leaves! [but lost a few lower leaves when they got old and crusty and I ruthlessly clipped them off]. Dad DIYer re-potted our figgy wiggy yesterday [that's how terrified I am of killing it - I didn't even want to re-pot it myself] and it fit perfectly into our Uashmama gold paper bag [from Dust!].
My 'secret' to keeping ours alive? I water it every 1-2 weeks, more in the summer when it's warmer, rub coconut oil on the leaves every 6 months, no direct sunlight and if the soil gets really dry, I submerge it in water then let it drain for a good hour afterwards. That's it. There's nothing more to this post other than the fact that I'm amazing and I kept a thing alive for a year. I've managed to keep Robert and Cora alive too, but they're less picky.

New York has a lot of luxury hotels, but the St. Regis is truly the best in class. From the butlers who are on call 24/7 to the incredible King Cole Bar, this hotel offers every amenity a traveler could want. The location on 5th Avenue in midtown makes it prime position for getting around the city, and the beautiful guest rooms are the most amazing you will see in any NYC location.
One of the most stunning settings for any hotel in the world, the Post Ranch Inn offers breathtaking views over the pacific from the cliffs high above. Enjoy waking up in your "green" room (with no TV!) to the Pacific Ocean below. The spa offers fantastic options for relaxation, the restaurant is one of the best in California and the grounds are incredibly cool.
Miami is one of the liveliest cities in the US and the Edition Hotel is the most luxurious in town. The rooms are great, the pool scene is packed with celebrities and the amenities are some of the best around. The Jean George restaurant on-site has great food and there is an ice skating rink (in Miami!) in the basement, along with a bowling alley. Whether you are a family looking for a fun getaway or a couple looking for a romantic vacation, this hotel is a great option.
Dallas is a city like no other and the Rosewood Mansion is our favorite in the state of Texas. When you arrive at the Rosewood you are instantly blown away by what locals really mean when they say everything is "bigger" in Dallas. The parking lot is littered with Ferraris, Lamborghinis, and Maseratis, and the hotel amenities live up to the clientele. The pool scene is great, the rooms beautiful and the food in the restaurant on-site is fantastic.
If you love wine and good food, then a trip to Napa Valley is a must. Napa offers one of the most beautiful settings in the world, and Auberge du Soliel is the best hotel in town. Overlooking beautiful vineyards, Auberge has two great restaurants, a fantastic pool and incredible rooms that often include a fireplace. Auberge embodies luxury and spending just a couple of days will be the most relaxing thing you can do. Our favorite thing about a Napa Valley vacation is the wineries and we would recommend that you check out Plumpjack, Robert Sinskey or Opus One.

For over 30 years, we have been designing and providing equipment and running development programmes to support the nuclear decommissioning and waste management industry.
During this period, we have assembled a team whose focus and guiding principle is to find practical and fit for purpose solutions that acknowledge existing technologies whilst pushing the boundaries of innovation. The result has been practical and pragmatic solutions with numerous examples of cost savings and improved delivery on many LLW and ILW projects.
There are cost and programme benefits in the testing and development of new processes and associated equipment prior to deployment on site. We have the ideal facilities and technical expertise for conducting these trials to ensure that practical challenges and technical issues are overcome.
The Science and Technology team comprises a varied skill base, including graduate, postgraduate and PhD scientists and engineers, whose formal qualifications are enhanced by many years' experience working in the nuclear industry. This team focuses on radioactive waste management and decommissioning solutions delivered through the use of high calibre scientific and engineering expertise.
Engineering Solutions
We have successfully supported numerous decommissioning and waste management campaigns by providing pragmatic, fit for purpose engineered solutions that have often been required to seamlessly integrate within larger systems.
Our engineering team typically deliver the following services to the nuclear decommissioning sector: mechanical and process concept design; underpinning technology proving trials; equipment build and evaluation; factory acceptance testing; and site installation and commissioning, including the full suite of documentation required for engineering applications implemented on nuclear licensed sites.
Laboratory Services
We have a pragmatic approach to waste management challenges and possess the capability to set up small scale trials in order to understand and replicate the processes involved. Small scale bench top development studies are a cost effective way of validating concept designs and providing confidence in developing the solution further at a larger and/or full scale.
We have the necessary understanding and techniques with which to evaluate prospective waste forms against the LLW Repository Ltd and NDA RWM acceptance criteria and possess state-of-the-art equipment to provide the full service to our clients.
Waste Retrieval and Processing
Waste Retrieval
We are the market leader in radioactive waste processing, having completed many waste retrieval campaigns in the UK and processing over 2 million litres of ILW and LLW. Many of these projects have involved developing bespoke retrieval systems to meet the individual requirements and challenges of each nuclear licensed site.
To support this service, we have designed, built and operated scale and full size test mock-ups of ponds, vaults, tanks and silos. Through this work, we have developed a 'toolbox' of retrieval techniques for both wet and solid waste. This includes retrieval systems which have incorporated mixers, agitators, macerators, eductors and pumps. We have also designed, installed and operated pneumatic conveyance systems that have proved successful for the retrieval of both wet and solid waste at various sites across the UK.
In a majority of cases, we endeavour to use proven technology, whether from our own industry or elsewhere – such as the chemical, oil, gas and water industries – where the experiences of the retrieval of difficult materials from challenging environments are similar.
Waste Processing - Segregation
Many waste management strategies involve segregation of wastes with differing properties so that they can be treated independently. In order for this approach to work, it is crucial to have robust processes in place to ensure that the waste can be separated. We have had significant involvement in many large projects which have developed processes for screening, separating, size reduction and assaying.
Waste Conditioning
Having retrieved the waste, conditioning is generally required to make it suitable for long term storage. We have developed techniques for waste stabilisation and volumetric reduction that can readily be applied in radiological controlled environments. In support of this approach, we have structured our development facility so that we can conduct testing to prove the most effective and practical conditioning process for each waste type.
Our structured approach to waste management and keen understanding of radioactive waste properties has led to us delivering valuable savings for many clients around the UK.
Waste Processing - Encapsulation and Grouting
We have extensive experience in cement solidification and encapsulation technologies and have been involved in the design of LLW and ILW encapsulation plant for over 30 years. In partnership with our clients, we have taken designs right through from proof of concept to inactive commissioning, site commissioning and operation.
The chemical or physical nature of certain wastes means that it is sometimes not possible to use cement for encapsulation for passive storage. We are the UK's leading expert in the use of polymers for encapsulation of radioactive waste.
Test Rig Design and Operation
The use of small and full scale test rigs allows us and our clients to identify and fix potential operational problems before they are encountered. Compared to operating within an active area on a nuclear site, the costs and timescales for development are reduced significantly.
Initially through simple test rigs, we have the capability to practically validate and underpin system designs in a cost effective manner before proceeding to the detailed design phase of the project.
As the project designs develop, we also have the in-house processes, resources and a mature supply chain to provide either full scale system mock-ups that can replicate plant or the actual plant that will be used on site. These mock-ups are invaluable in developing processes and assessing throughput, reliability, availability and maintenance (TRAM) issues that may potentially occur.
Waste Simulation and Test Material Development
One of the major challenges in providing radioactive waste management services is understanding the physical and chemical properties of the waste. At NSG, we have made huge strides in recent years in developing a range of simulants and test materials which closely represent a variety of waste streams. Our experienced team have the ability to recognise the crucial issues and challenges with specific wastes. This allows the appropriate tests to be developed, which provides relevant scientific underpinning of a proposed solution.
The challenges faced can include replicating chemical properties (e.g. pH, cement retardation, corrosion products, gas generation, etc.) and physical properties (such as rheology, particle size distribution and yield shear strength).

It looks like you're new here. If you want to get involved, click one of these buttons!
A new and more compact slipform paver is being introduced by Guntert & Zimmerman, widening the firm's range of models. The company has been known in the past for its large slipform pavers used in road and airport runway jobs but in recent years has developed smaller and more compact units. The S400 shares many of its features with the existing S600, which was previously the most compact model in the line-up. The firm's German representative, Peter Hedke said,[url=http://chipspreadermarket.com/road/2826.html]pavement crack sealing[/url] "It's the smallest machine we've ever built."
This new unit has been designed to combine versatility with productivity and Hedke said, "It's an entry level machine for contractors or a machine for existing customers to widen their fleet."However the firm is keen to point out that this is also a high quality machine that can deliver high quality paving. The machine features G&Z's sophisticated EGON operation and guidance package and can offer remote diagnostics and the firm's NoLine stringless integration technology.[url=http://chipspreadermarket.com/road/3189.html]compactor plate industry[/url]
As with other slipformers in the G&Z range, the new S400 can be used in combination with machine control technologies from different suppliers. The new S400 retains the same novel SmartLeg turnbuckle design that allows fast width changes and according to Hedke, this is a key feature as it ensures the machine is highly versatile, as is required for slipformers in its class. He said,chip spreader market
"It's a single lane machine and a smaller version of the S600. It can be used for offset paving, fitted with molds to slipform New Jersey barriers."The S400 also has the firm's AccuSteer system and is designed to cope with tight curves such as kerbs in parking areas or for roads linking to housing developments and Hedke added,[url=http://chipspreadermarket.com/road/6097.html]laser concrete cutting equipment[/url] "It can be used to pave roundabouts."

Monday: Happy Veteran's Day to ALL who have earned their uniform for the military services of the United States.
Tuesday: snow.
Yep. This week has been a little epic in celebrations.
Also, we fasted as a church on Monday followed by a prayer and worship time. We know God hears our prayers and blesses sacrifices. So, we prayed for BIG things. Bold Things. We begged God to show HImself like never before and we are believing it.
And Saturday; our Marine Corps Birthday Ball Celebration.
And our free Thanksgiving Dinner and Celebration Service at Church.
Where's cloning coming along these days?
I kid.
Kind of.
The Marine and I went out to eat yesterday to break our fast.
We decided to be gluttons of punishment instead.
City BBQ.
The Marine got an entire platter of FREE food.
I got North Carolina pulled pork, green beans, mac and cheese, and fried pickles.
The Marine ate Brisket sandwich (with jalapeños), corn puddin', and smashed taters.
We had SO SO SO much food.
And we ate about HALF of it.
And about died since we hadn't eaten the previous 24 hours.
And then we went to Target. (everyone's happy place).
And purchased this lovely comforter on the right for $26.98, originally $99.99.
So our color scheme now looks like this.
That purple is the color of our walls. The creme is the color of the curtains.
The teal is our bedding, along with a cozy gray.
Complete Accident, but it is working...
I was trying to keep teal OUT of the bedroom since it's in EVERY.SINGLE.ROOM. of the house (by default cause it's AWESOME).
So now we just feel ocean-y in every part of our house...miles away from any body of water. hah.
