The Smurfs 2
Add The Smurfs 2 to Queue
Gargamel is back, and this time he's sending the Smurfs on a wild adventure through Paris in this globe-trotting sequel to the 2011 hit. Determined to harness the magical essence of the Smurfs, wicked wizard Gargamel (voice of Hank Azaria) creates a diminutive race of mischief makers known as the Naughties. But in order to get the results he's looking for, Gargamel will need to get his hands on a genuine Smurf. Enter Smurfette (voice of Katy Perry), the only one of her kind who knows the spell that can transform Naughties into actual Smurfs. Having recently shot to fame in Paris due to his impressive magical powers, Gargamel kidnaps Smurfette, and sweeps her away to the City of Light. With Papa Smurf (voice of Jonathan Winters) and company hot on his trail, however, the scheming wizard quickly realizes that executing his diabolical plan will be easier said than done. Meanwhile, Smurfette's growing sense of insecurity leaves her vulnerable to the scheming of Naughties Vexy (voice of Christina Ricci) and Hackus (voice of J.B. Smoove). Neil Patrick Harris and Jayma Mays also lend their voices. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

A pampered Chihuahua accustomed to the living the good life in glamorous Beverly Hills must rein in her heiress instincts and rely on the kindness of strangers in order to find her way back home after becoming hopelessly lost in Mexico. Chloe (voice of Drew Barrymore) is a diamond-clad toy dog who favors traveling in her wealthy owner's purse over frolicking in an open park, and Papi (voice of George Lopez) is the kind of independent pup that she doesn't afford a second glance. When a vacation mishap leaves Chloe stranded in Mexico, the Chihuahua who doesn't speak a lick of Spanish must rely on street-smart German shepherd Delgado (voice of Andy Garcia) to guide her back home before she wanders any further south. Meanwhile, brave Papi races to the border intent on proving his love for Chloe by tracking her down and escorting her home in style. Along the way, Papi is joined by an enthusiastic pack of helpful pooches (voices of Luis Guzman, Plácido Domingo, and Eddie "Piolin" Sotelo) a pair of concerned humans (Piper Perabo and Manolo Cardona), an anxious iguana (voice of Paul Rodriguez), and a crafty rat (voice of Cheech Marin). ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

Two big families merge into one super-sized brood in this comedy. Frank Beardsley (Dennis Quaid) is a naval officer who has been raising eight children on his own after the death of his wife, and while he loves his kids, he rules his household with military precision. Frank has been alone just long enough that he decides it's time to start dating again, and he agrees to be set up on a blind date for a social function. To his surprise, his date turns out to be Helen North (Rene Russo), a girl he dated years ago when they were both in high school who, like Frank, lost her spouse not long ago. The old chemistry clicks anew for Helen and Frank, and he asks her to marry him. However, there's just a bit of a problem -- Helen is caring for ten children of her own, six of whom were adopted, and her artistic temperament makes for a very different household than Frank and his kids are used to. Frank and Helen decide to give this grand experiment a try, but the 18 siblings don't get along at all well at first, until they decide to set aside their differences and unite against a common foe -- their folks. Yours, Mine & Ours is a remake of a 1968 comedy of the same name, which starred Henry Fonda and Lucille Ball as the newlywed parents. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

America's favorite teenage canine-led crime fighters earn a second shot at the big screen in this sequel to the hit comedy Scooby-Doo. The reunited Mystery Inc. team -- Fred (Freddie Prinze Jr.), Daphne (Sarah Michelle Gellar), Velma (Linda Cardellini), Shaggy (Matthew Lillard), and Scooby-Doo (voice of Neil Fanning) -- return to their hometown of Coolsville as heroes when a local criminology museum offers an exhibition of the many ghostly disguises used by villains they've subdued over the years. However, their warm welcome is not long-lived; mean-spirited television reporter Heather Jasper-Howe (Alicia Silverstone) has aired a series of stories calling the team's intelligence and bravery into question, and even worse, a number of the weird creature costumes on display in the museum are coming to life and wrecking havoc on the people of Coolsville. Some of the clues seem to point to Old Man Wickles (Peter Boyle), whose attempts to pose as the Black Knight Ghost were foiled by the Mystery Machinists in the past, but is he looking for revenge or just a red herring? And what is Velma supposed to do about Patrick Wisely (Seth Green), a curator at the museum who's warm for her helmet-haired form? Scooby-Doo 2 also co-stars Tim Blake Nelson and features a cameo appearance from American Idol star Ruben Studdard. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

The long-running cartoon from William Hanna and Joseph Barbera that began life in 1969 as Scooby-Doo, Where Are You? becomes this live-action, tongue-in-cheek comedy-adventure featuring a computer-generated version of the easily frightened, mush-mouthed Great Dane. Freddie Prinze Jr. stars as Fred, the blonde, confident, ascot-sporting leader of Mystery Inc., a ghost-busting service that exposes phony supernatural phenomena as the work of shysters. Working with Fred are: his rich, beautiful girlfriend, Daphne (Sarah Michelle Gellar), who has a bad habit of getting kidnapped by villains; Velma (Linda Cardellini), the real brains of the group who pines secretly for Fred; cowardly slacker and dog's best friend Shaggy (Matthew Lillard); and the snack-gobbling pet pooch Scooby. However, after solving its latest case involving a beleaguered toy company owner (Pamela Anderson), the group fractures over Fred's habit of grabbing credit for everyone's hard work, despite the pleas of Shaggy and Scooby. Two years later, they are reunited at Spooky Island, a theme park and teen spring break destination that owner Emile Mondavarious (Rowan Atkinson) claims is plagued with ghosts. Suspicious as usual of any claims involving the paranormal, the Mystery Inc. clan is soon probing a scheme involving ancient rites, summoned spirits, and brainwashed college students, forcing the group members to resolve their differences and uncover the truth. Directed by Chris Columbus protégé Raja Gosnell, Scooby-Doo features the voice of Scott Innes as the title character. ~ Karl Williams, Rovi

In this comedy, a cop assumes a new identity in his valiant battle against crime: an elderly grandmother! Malcolm Turner (Martin Lawrence) is an FBI agent who is a master of disguise and will stop at nothing to get his man. When a bank robber escapes from prison and goes on a violent crime spree, Malcolm is assigned to bring him in. The thief's girlfriend Sherry (Nia Long), who is also the mother of his child, lives in a small Southern town, and Malcolm plans to set up a stake-out in the house across the street from Sherry's. However, the house is owned by Big Momma (Ella Mitchell), an older woman with a sharp tongue and no patience for back talk, and when Big Momma has to leave town, it leaves her house suspiciously empty. Determined to maintain his cover, Malcolm disguises himself as Big Momma, and now has to convince Sherry (and everyone else in the neighborhood) that Big Momma's still in town. Big Momma's House gained considerable pre-production publicity when Lawrence fell into a coma while jogging in a heat wave before the film's start date; Lawrence claimed that he was trying to lose weight to fit more comfortably into his character's "fat suit." ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

Many people wish they could go back to high school, knowing what they know as an adult; Josie Geller gets the chance to do just that in the comedy Never Been Kissed. Josie (played by Drew Barrymore) is a 25-year-old copy editor at a newspaper in Chicago. But it's her youthful looks as much as her journalistic skills that finally win her a writing assignment: she's ordered to enroll in high school posing as a teenager for a story on the state of America's youth. Trouble is, Josie was a hopeless nerd in high school (called "Josie Grossie" by her classmates); she had no idea of how to fit in with the cool kids, and she's hardly gotten any better at it in the seven years since graduation. While Josie makes fast friends with a bookish girl named Aldys (Leelee Sobieski), and also takes notice of her good-looking English teacher Mr. Coulson (Michael Vartan), she realizes for the sake of her story she has to infiltrate the cool girls' clique, which will be impossible without someone to give her a crash course in hipness. Josie's brother Rob (David Arquette), obviously the more style-conscious sibling, offers to sign up for the same school to act as the cool-guy friend she'll need to fit in, but just when Josie starts making headway (and starts enjoying high school for a change), her editor changes the focus of the story -- he now wants a feature on improper relations between teachers and students, which will not be good for her deepening friendship with Mr. Coulson. Never Been Kissed also features supporting performances from John C. Reilly, Molly Shannon and Jordan Ladd (the latter in a much more wholesome vehicle than her last cinematic visit to cinematic teen-town, Gregg Araki's Nowhere). ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

For the third film in this series, Alex D. Linz replaced Macaulay Culkin as the central figure. Four industrial spies acquire a missile guidance-system computer chip and smuggle it through an airport inside a remote-controlled toy car. Because of baggage confusion, grouchy Mrs. Hess (Marian Seldes) gets the car. She gives it to her neighbor, eight-year-old Alex (Linz), just before the spies turn up. The spies rent a house in order to burglarize each house in the neighborhood until they locate the car. Home alone with the chicken pox, Alex calls 911 each time he spots a theft in progress, but the spies always manage to elude the police -- while Alex is accused of making prank calls. The spies finally turn their attentions toward Alex, unaware that he has rigged devices to cleverly booby-trap his entire house. ~ Bhob Stewart, Rovi

A single man faces the terrifying prospect of seeing his carefree life dashed by a visit from the stork in this comedy. Samuel Falkner (Hugh Grant) is a child psychiatrist who has no kids of his own and doesn't want any, which leaves him a bit shaken when his girlfriend of five years, Rebecca Taylor (Julianne Moore) announces that she's pregnant. Suddenly, Samuel is plagued by paranoid fantasies about how marriage and fatherhood will change his life, which are not at all soothed by frequent visits from Rebecca's chronically-pregnant friend Gail Dwyer (Joan Cusack) and her half-bright lummox of a husband, Marty (Tom Arnold). Too selfish to deal with Rebecca's needs, Samuel parts company with her and takes a last stab at playing the field, but when he sees an ultrasound of his soon-to-be-born son, he decides that it's time to face his responsibilities before it's too late. Nine Months also features Robin Williams in a small role as Dr. Kosevich, an ob-gyn with a weak grasp of the English language. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

The 1947 holiday classic Miracle on 34th Street is transplanted to the 1990s with few changes in this family-oriented remake. The screenplay by the prolific John Hughes sticks close to the original outline, centering on Macy's executive Dorey Walker (Elizabeth Perkins) and her young daughter Susan (Mara Wilson), neither of whom much believes in the spirit of Christmas. Dorey is in charge of hiring Macy's Santas, including an old man named Kriss Kringle (Richard Attenborough). He does a remarkably convincing job, and he soon reveals that he actually believes himself to be Santa Claus. The authorities threaten to place the old man in an insane asylum, but a young lawyer comes to his defense. Meanwhile, Dorey and Susan find their own defenses melting and become reacquainted with the power of faith. Hughes and director Les Mayfield add a few modern touches, making Susan slightly more cynical and adding the requisite soulless corporate villains. Viewers familiar with the original may still prefer Edmund Gwenn's original Kris Kringle and consider the remake unnecessary, although the newer version reflects enough of the earlier film's spirit to prove entertaining to modern family audiences. ~ Judd Blaise, All Movie Guide

John Hughes and Chris Columbus repeat their best-selling formula from the first Home Alone film with this sequel. Once again Kevin McCallister's (Macaulay Culkin) family leave him behind, only now he gets on a flight to New York instead of going with his family to Miami.

But ingenious Kevin keeps them at bay, using the same tomfoolery he applied to his uncle in the first picture. He takes time out from his consumer debauch to chat with a friendly old toy-store magnate (Eddie Bracken) and pontificate to a homeless Pigeon Lady (Brenda Fricker) on the meaning of Christmas. But then he runs into his old enemies Harry (Joe Pesci) and Marv (Daniel Stern).When he finds out that they plan on robbing the old man's toy store on Christmas Eve, he mans the battle stations once again, complete with electric prods, flames of fire, and sundry blunt instruments. ~ Paul Brenner, Rovi

. This comedy salad features a whole slew of TV luminaries--Alan Thicke, Bill Kirchenbauer, Lynn Redgrave, Heather Locklear, Tracy Scoggin, Reginald VelJohnson etc.--playing judge, jury, defenders and prosecutors in an embezzlement case. The clue as to the film's sobriety level is the fact that Bronson Pinchot plays four roles: Sanford, Arthur Lloyd, Jorge Jimenez, and Magda. Highlights include a mid-trial pizza delivery, a faulty oxygen tank, and a kid holding up a "Hi Mom" sign for the benefit of the courtroom cameras.

Self-involved corporate raider Edward Lewis (Richard Gere) has recently split up with his girlfriend. Seeking directions to the Beverly Hills Hotel, he makes the acquaintance of free-spirited hooker Vivian Ward (Julia Roberts) and decides to put her on a 3,000-dollar retainer as his "date." He Cinderellarizes her by bankrolling a full wardrobe and cosmetic makeover. Of course, the setup will be strictly platonic. A disarming modern-day fairy tale, Pretty Woman was the picture that made Julia Roberts a superstar. As charming as she is in her "giggling" sequences, Roberts' best scene is her triumphant return to a posh Rodeo Drive shop where she'd been previously snubbed. Keeping Pretty Woman afloat throughout is the buoyant direction of Garry Marshall and the always welcome presence of Marshall's stock company of actors, including Hector Elizondo as a stuffy but golden-hearted concierge. Pretty Woman began its life as a much darker story of prostitutes and homicidal drug dealers, but more box-office-savvy heads ultimately prevailed. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

"They didn't kill me; I was dead already," is the statement uttered by Dexter Cornell (Dennis Quaid), an English professor at the University of Texas at Austin who has been poisoned by a slow-acting toxin and who has twenty-four hours to track down his killers before he ceases to exist. Remade from the 1949 Rudolph Mate thriller by Annabel Jankel and Rocky Morton, the co-directors jazz up the old luridness with slap-up doggishness that boosts the intensity-level higher than it deserves to go. Cornell is a burned-out novelist trying to hold on to tenure at the university while seeing his marriage collapse around him. As if that weren't enough, he is receiving amorous come-ons from smart, young student Sydney Fuller (Meg Ryan) and being badgered by another student, Nick Lang (Robert Knepper), to read his brilliant first novel. Not long after Dex demurs to Nick to read his novel, Nick is killed in a fall. Only then does Dex find out that Nick has been having an affair with his wife. Things keep going from bad to worse when, after an all-night drinking binge, Dex discovers that he has been slipped a poison that will kill him within 24 hours. Teaming up with the adoring Sydney, Dex tries to track down the person who poisoned him while dodging the cops, since he happens to be a prime murder suspect. ~ Paul Brenner, Rovi

The film begins in 1965, when disc jockey Adrian Cronauer (Robin Williams) is assigned to take over the AFR's Saigon radio broadcasts. In contrast to the dull, by-rote announcers that have preceded him, Cronauer is a bundle of dynamite, heralding each broadcast with a loud "Goooooood morning, Vietnaaaaam," playing whatever records tickle his fancy (even those not officially sanctioned by his hidebound superiors), and indulging in wild flights of improvisational fancy. Cronauer's immediate superior Lt. Hauk (Bruno Kirby), whose own notions of humor are puerile and pathetic, jealously attempts to dethrone Vietnam's favorite rock jock. Fortunately, Cronauer's popularity is such that he enjoys the full protection of the higher-ups. But when Cronauer, after experiencing the horrors of war first-hand, insists upon telling his listeners the truth instead of the official government line, he is instantly replaced by the unfunny Hauk and must struggle to get back on the air. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

Thus begins a roller coaster ride of comic mishaps, unexpected perils and hairbreadth escapes. IN one bit, blues singer Albert Collins refuses to allow Chris and company to leave the nightclub they've wandered into until they agree to sing along with a song borrowed from, of all things the 1939 B-picture Nancy Drew, Reporter! .

Phillies must trade John Mayberry before tomorrow's Rule 5 Draft
by Scott Butler 12/11/13John Mayberry must not be on the Phillies 40-man roster this time tomorrow. Mayberry must be traded tonight.
Why the urgency? The Phillies were given a gift last week when they earned an extra Rule 5 draft selection from the Cubs through a grievance. It gives the Phillies the 4th and 7th picks in tomorrow's Rule 5 draft. Problem is, they have two selections in the draft and only spot available on their 40-man roster. If they want to take two Rule 5 guys, someone from the current roster has to go. That player needs to be John Mayberry.
I will touch on the Rule 5 aspect in a second, but first, let's talk a little John Mayberry, Jr.
Even healthy, Phillies offense not as good as you think
by Scott Butler 12/10/13Prepare yourselves for a really depressing article.
It wasn't supposed to be that way, though.
My original intention with this post was to show you that with just a little bit of luck, the Phillies still have one of the top offenses in the National League. Give us a full year of Howard and Utley and the performances we hope and expect from Asche and Brown, the Phillies might make some noise.
Well, not so fast there, Skippy.
I wanted to see how the Phillies offense projects this season if Howard and Utley are healthy, if Domonic Brown can replicate 2013, if Asche can hold his own, and if the rest of the starters simply do their jobs. I'm not asking for 40 bombs from Howard, 100 runs from Revere, or a .300 batting average for Rollins. Just a healthy team and a little bit of good fortune.
The goal here is to set a baseline for the offense if the starters can stay on the field and perform the way they are expected.
Phillies rumors week of December 1-7
by Scott Butler 12/8/13In our regular feature on Phils Baseball, here are the rumors from the past week from the guys at MLB Trade Rumors. They have a page devoted just to Phillies rumors (this is not a paid plug, honest) and all we do is put everything from the past week in one post.
Here are the latest Phillies rumors from the week of December 1-7:
Thanks Cubs! Phillies gain extra Rule 5 selection
by Scott Butler 12/8/13The Phillies gained an extra pick in next Thursday's Rule 5 Draft and the reason is mysterious.
The Phillies were awarded the Cubs' pick (4th selection overall) after winning a grievance over Chicago's handling of their selection of Lendy Castillo from the Phillies in 2012.
Players chosen in the Rule 5 Draft must be on the selecting team's active 25-man roster for the entire season, but they also must be on the 25-man roster for at least 90 days during the season. The rules are in place to prevent teams from "drafting and stashing" players on the disabled list to keep them off the active roster.
Castillo was on the Cubs' disabled list for 91 days with a groin injury in 2012 before activating him in September, when rosters expand, giving him 92 days on the active roster. It doesn't take much math sense to recognize that 92 is greater than 90, so technically the Cubs were not in violation.
Then why were the Phillies awarded the pick? With no official explanation, my answer came from "commenter" in the comments section of Todd Zolecki's article:
News flash: the Phillies are old and expensive
by Scott Butler 11/29/13Captain Obvious here with an insightful observation: the Phillies are an old team. If Family Feud asked 100 people to describe the Phillies in one word, old has to be the #1 answer. Number two on that list should be expensive. Put those two together and what do you get? The Phillies are an old, expensive team.
Ruben Amaro is counting on another term for the 2014 season: talented. While it is easy to point out the high salaries, increasing age, and declining skills, let's not forget that this still is a talented team. If Amaro cashes his lottery ticket this season and somehow his core can remain on the field, the 2014 Phillies should be competitive. The problem with the Phillies situation is that they have no choice but to count on older, injury prone players who hopefully can hang onto their skills just a little longer.
Despite their huge payroll, the Phillies had very little to spend this offseason, which explains why the Phillies were never serious contenders in the Brian McCann/Jacoby Ellsbury/Shin-Soo Choo sweepstakes. Amaro pointed indicated in an interview last week with Mike Missanelli that he expected their payroll to be similar in 2014 to what it has been in the last few seasons, which is around $170 million. After signing relatively cheap deals for Byrd and Ruiz, the Phils have roughly five to ten million left to spend with glaring needs in the starting rotation and the bullpen.
The reality of the situation is that while the core names from the talented and inexpensive 2007 team are mostly the same, their value nearly seven seasons later is quite the opposite. Let's look at the transition in graph form.

How much do Phillies have left to spend this off season?
by Scott Butler 11/19/13Teams who finish with 89 losses tend to have many holes to fill and the Phillies need lots of shovels and dirt. They filled two needs by signing Marlon Byrd and Carlos Ruiz, but still need to look to free agency for at least two starting pitchers and bullpen help. So, how much do they have left to spend?
To answer that question, we begin with the guaranteed contracts. If we include Carlos Ruiz's still unofficial 3 year/$26 million deal and assume he earns $8 million in 2014, the Phillies have $138.5 million in salary obligations for ten players, roughly $135 million of which counts towards the luxury tax. That luxury tax threshold is based on the average annual value (AAV) of each contract, which is calculated by dividing the total guaranteed money by the number of years.
Cole Hamels' contract, for example, earns him $138 million over 5 years, but it also includes a $6 million buyout in the sixth year, guaranteeing him a minimum of $144 million over 6 years and an AAV of $24 million. Even though Hamels will only make $22.5 million in 2014, it counts as $24 million towards the luxury tax. On the flip side, Rollins will make $11 million in 2014, but he has a $9.5 million AAV because it is a four-year, $38 million deal.
Included in both the actual 2014 payroll and the luxury tax number is roughly $10 million in player benefits.
Where we stand with their current salary obligations is a 2014 payroll of $148.5 million. Their payroll for the last two seasons was over $170 million, so if they remain at that level in 2014, they have about $21.5 million to spend. With a luxury tax figure of $145 million, it leaves them with a maximum of $44 million to spend before reaching the luxury tax.
That realistically leaves Amaro with between $21.5 million and $44 million to spend on the rest of the players. Still with me?
Reflecting on Carlos Ruiz contract
by Scott Butler 11/18/13Signing Carlos Ruiz to a 3 year/$26 million contract is another clear overpay, but the pile Ruben Amaro just stepped in was nearly unavoidable.
There are plenty of reasons to knock this deal.
Ruiz is 35. That is old. Corey Seidman pointed out on CSNPhilly.com that since 1965, only two catchers 35 or older have hit at least .290 in 400-plus plate appearances: Jorge Posada and Carlton Fisk. Only Fisk, Posada, Mike Piazza and A.J. Pieryznski had an .800 OPS after that age.
The contract is also significantly costlier than most predicted. MLB Trade Rumors predicted a 2 year/$14 million contract and the Rockies were only willing to offer 2 years and $15 million. The Phillies appear to be the only team willing to guarantee a third year. It also easily tops Russell Martin's two-year, $17 contract from the Pirates last winter.
Crashburn Alley found that in the previous three seasons, only one catcher (John Buck) has earned a contract of three years or more, seven were gives two-year contracts, and everyone else received a one-year deal.
Their options were limited. The Phillies have nobody in their farm system qualified as a starting catcher, and their limited budget essentially eliminated Brian McCann and Jarrod Saltalamacchia as possibilities. AJ Pierzynski is a lefty the Phillies do not need who is actually older than Ruiz. Dioner Navarro would be much cheaper, but he is also a significant downgrade. That left Chooch.
This was in no way a win for the Phillies, but it wasn't a complete debacle, either. It gives the Phillies a quality defensive catcher who works well with pitchers and can hit a little. While Amaro added an older player again and overpaid again, given their options it was not the most egregious move he could have made.
Phillies rumors week of November 10
by Scott Butler 11/17/13Did you know a new Phillies rumor is generated every 3 seconds during the offseason? Yeah, I totally made that up, but it probably isn't that far off.
That is why I love MLB Trade Rumors because they track all rumors and have a page devoted just to Phillies rumors (I swear I'm not making a dime for this plug!). Last week I decided to go a step further and put all of their Phillies rumors from the past week in one page. Most of you seemed to like the idea (you lazy bastards), so I am making it a regular feature (at least during the hot stove period). If you want the rumors in real time, make sure to visit MLB Trade Rumors Phillies page.
Here are the latest Phillies rumors from the week of November 10:

I just found out that termper dysregulation disorder with dysphoria (TDD) is still included in the proposal for DSM-V, but under the category of depressive disorders. It is now named disruptive mood dysregulation disorder. This reflects the fact that the predonimant feature of this disorder is a mood problem rather than a behavior problem. The "disruptive" part does show that there is still consideration that this disorder is a behavior problem in essence, however.
The criteria are very strict, but unfortunately, bipolar disorder has to be ruled out first before a child can be diagnosed with this disorder. This makes it easier for doctors to diagnose pediatric bipolar disorder, while it seems the TDD idea was to correct the misdiagnosis of pediatric bipolar.
I still think that I would've been diagnosed with this had this disorder been present in DSM-IV. I used to meet all the criteria before I went on Abilify, except that a pervasive developmental disorder should be ruled out first.

Amun is a content management framework based on the PSX framework. The goal is to build a more federated and programmable Web. This is achieved by providing a RESTful API for managing and distributing the content in standard formats like JSON, XML, Atom, and RSS. It tries to support open standards like OAuth, OpenID, etc., and gives you the freedom to access the data of a Website in the way you like. It tries to enable easy communication from server to server, browser to server, and application to server.
Assimilate is a Maven2 plugin that allows developers to import dependencies from other pre-built Maven projects without a formal parent-child hierarchy existing between the projects. There is no limit to the number of project dependencies. Maven 2.0.9's "import" scope acts not on managed dependencies, but on those declared in the dependency management section of the imported pom file. Assimilate, in contrast, is designed to act on managed dependencies of any prebuilt Maven project (stored in the local repository), as though they were declared in the local project's managed dependency section.
Cosmiqum is small and fast CMF that is aimed to make any site quickly. Almost all of its functionality is implemented through plugins. Any plugin can register a filter for a specific event and any plugin can be a filter, which is useful for plugins that need to process another plugin's data. Every action in the core is logged and any plugin can log any of its actions. PHP errors are not displayed to the user, but the developer can get them from a specific array. Different configurations can be used for different hosts.
Zebra_Accordion is a tiny (2KB minified) accordion plugin for jQuery. It transforms a basic definition list, without requiring any other specific markup, into a small-footprint, easily configurable, fully customizable, cross-browser accordion widget, useful for better organizing larger groups of content. It is easily customizable through CSS, can be configured to work so that only a single can be expanded at a time or so that all tabs may be expanded/collapsed, and can be configured to work so tabs expand on mouse-over. When, after expanding a tab, part of its content is outside the viewport, it automatically scrolls the browser's window so that the tab's content is visible. Callback functions can be used for further customizations. Zebra_Accordion works in all major browsers.
Zebra_Cookie is an extremely small (~500 bytes minified) jQuery plugin for writing, reading, and deleting cookies. Handling cookies can be a daunting task using plain JavaScript, and because jQuery doesn't natively include functions for handling cookies and one must rely on plug-ins.
GCC-MELT is a high-level domain specific language that eases the development of plugin-like extensions for GCC, the Gnu Compiler Collection. These extensions can analyze or modify GCC internal representations, and can be used for static source code analysis, refactoring, specific warnings, optimizations, etc. The MELT language provides high-level features. Notably, MELT code is translated to C or C++, and can even contain C or C++ code. It includes powerful pattern matching facilities and can manipulate dynamically typed values and raw GCC structures. It enables functional/applicative, object-oriented, reflective programming styles and has a familiar Lisp-like syntax.

I've waxed pseudo-poetically on the joys of having a media center PC, having gone through several configurations before settling on the combination of Mac Mini and Plex Media Center as the best solution for me. Sadly, digital media aficionados like me may soon have one less option when building the living room system of their dreams.
Engadget reported recently that Windows 8 will apparently lack the mostly overlooked Media Center software included in Windows 7. The latest preview release of Win8 lacks some key components of the software, a bad sign for what seemed like the spiritual inspiration for the Metro interface. While losing (at least partially) an option for media center PCs, hardware solutions are growing with the upcoming revision to Google TV, improvements to the Roku lineup, expansions to standalone DVRs like Tivo, and the long-rumored Apple television.

Adjust display brightness in Mac OS X
Talk0this wiki
Recently created tip
We have not yet decided whether to keep this tip as its own page or merge it somewhere else. If you have a suggestion on the tip content, please edit this page or add your comments below (do not use the discussion page).
This tip adjusts the brightness of the display when Vim gains or loses focus on Mac OS X systems. This is not related to the brightness of the colorscheme.
I like my display on full brightness with a dark colorscheme when coding. When switching from full screen Vim to a browser window or a terminal, the display settings make the screen far too bright. To avoid that, the following procedure sets the screen brightness to full when Vim gains focus, then sets the screen to half brightness when Vim loses focus.
Download the command line brightness tool from here.
Then add the following commands to your vimrc.
:au FocusGained * :!brightness 1 :au FocusLost * :!brightness 0.5
Tip could be improved if the tool were improved to report the current brightness setting so it can be restored. Also you probably only want this to happen if in fullscreen mode, so could possibly be improved there (if there is a way for Vim to detect it is full screened).

Fantasy Baseball – FAAB Report, Wk.6
May 6th, 2013 | by Ray Flowers |I've been sick. So sick that I was in the hospital for three days. I'm feeling better now, but apparently my brain is still a bit scrambled. Just check out some of the crazy bids I placed this week in the free agent pool.
TOUT WARS (15 team mixed): As you know, I've been sick for a week now, so sick I was in the hopsital for three days. I'm blaming the residual there for my lack of bid on Dee Gordon. I need a middle infielder badly in this league so I should have been more aggressive with the speed demon from LA. Instead I went small money and added Ruben Tejada ($1) and Ryan Raburn ($1). Tejada is merely a stop gap at SS, Derek Jeter missing half the season is killing me. As for Raburn, why not take a chance? He replaced Eric Sogard in my lineup (I told you I was hurting up the middle). Hopefully Raburn can remain in the daily lineup which would be a nice boost for me. I let go Mike Leake and Billy Hamilton to make the moves. Given my injury issues, I couldn't wait on Hamilton any longer.
Notable bids: Dee Gordon $30), Hector Santiago ($5), Marcell Ozuna ($3)
To see how others are evaluating players don't forget to go to Fleaflicker.com where you can check out the owned percentages of all your favorite players.
LABR (12 team, AL-only): Chris Nelson came over to the AL to join the Yankees, and now he is part of my club for $7. But Ray, why big do high? Well, here's why. In the last week Chris Young and Kevin Youkilis were both sent to the DL with injuries. I needed at-bats. I went for it.
Notable bids: J.B. Shuck ($5), Sean Doolittle ($5), Freddy Garcias ($3), Jeff Baker ($3), Adam Rosales ($2)
FSTA (13 team mixed): Here are the players I have on the DL in this league – Matt Adam, Coco Crisp, Justin Maxwell, Hanley Ramirez (he was back for half a week), Sergio Santos, Kevin Youkilis and Chris Young. Think my team is in trouble, maybe? I added Ryan Raburn ($89) to help out up the middle and then Justin Grimm on the hill ($9).
Notable bids: Marcell Ozuna ($147 out of $1,000), Kevin Slowey ($59), Trevor Plouffe ($56), Oswaldo Arcia ($25), Jake Westbrook ($22), Shaun Marcum ($19)
SIRIUSXM EXPERTS (12 team mixed): Jeremy Guthrie keeps on getting it done. I sent Chris Nelson packing to add Guthrie ($2). I also let Dayan Viciedo go for Ryan Ruburn ($3). This is the league, if you will remember, that HanRam hosed me. I then spent big on Neil Walker when he was dropped, but of course he too is now on the DL. Raburn, and his second base eligibility, is a nice add for me.
Notable bids: Nolan Arenado ($31), Vernon Wells ($17), Yuniesky Betancourt ($4).
SIRIUSXM LISTENER LG (11 team mixed): This is the only league with an open waiver-wire. I had to drop Kevin Youkilis. Just too many injured players on this club to hold on. I also let Kendrys Morales go. Why you ask? Because I made two trades. Trade #1 saw me give up Carlos Santana, Shin-Soo Choo and Kenley Jansen, a big haul, but in return I received Matt Cain, Cliff Lee, Andre Ethier and Welington Castillo. I also added, in deal #2, Chris Sale and Corey Hart for Tony Cingrani. Granted it sure seems like I worked over the other fella, I added Lee/Cain/Sale in the course of four days, and I got Hart to replace Youkilis as a boost at first base when he is eligible.
K-BAD (12 team mixed): I added the guy I seemingly added in every league, Ryan Raburn ($46). I don't think he's going to star this year, but I'm just plugging holes like the boy who stuck his thumb in the dike (I dropped David Robertson). I moved on from Jarrod Saltalamacchia at catcher and added Russell Martin for $17. I also released Joaquin Benoit who was the Tigers closer for about 10 days before he was replaced with Jose Valverde. Chris Tillman ($13) is now a proud member of my rotation.
Notable bids: Dee Gordon ($182), A.J. Griffin ($86), Marcell Ozuna ($75), Yonder Alonso ($64), Seth Smith ($23)
FANBALL (13 team mixed): Anthony Rendon has been demoted, and we may not see him again for a while (barring injury). I let Mr. Rendon go in favor of James Loney. I know that's a bit nuts, adding Loney, but did you realize he is hitting .398 this season? Seriously, look it up. I also placed Kevin Youkilis on the DL and added Jordan Pacheco to help ou at the third base spot. Woof is right.
Notable bids: Dee Gordon ($40 out of $100), Juan Pierre ($11), Carlos Martinez ($9), Justin Grimm ($8).

whilst the actual shopping experience and delivery were without problems, I had to return my boots and 2 months later have no sign of a refund. I cannot access the website and the telephone cannot be connected. BYEBYE £74.
Wrong size boots sent, returned but no refund made. Telephone line doesn't connect and website down. No way of getting my money back :(
I bought a pair of Emu boots for my daughers birthday and they arrived promptly within 2 days. Great I thought - however they needed to be returned, so I emailed for an RMA which promptly arrived. I posted the back with the label provided on 20th February 2012, the parcel was received on the 22nd February, but I still have not received my refund. I am absolutely disgusted and wouldn't not recommend this company to my worse enemy. Dispite having called - there is only a message saying 'your call cannot be connected at this time' and emailing I am still waiting for my refund.
Returned a pair of Fly boots to you, and you emailed to say you had refunded my money in February but I have still not received my refund. You have not responded to any phone calls or emails. Where is my money?? Very unhappy customer
I bought a pair of Fly boots, returned in February as didn't fit, no refund received, no response to my email, phone number no longer works and website is down. Where's my refund?!
I bought boots, the money was taken and I after a month i haven't received goods. On their website it shows as 'ceased trading' and this is now in the hands of PayPal's dispute process.
Good price (much better than QVC) and free P & P. Arrived within 3 working days. My second pair of Emus from Shoe Envy and could be tempted by more!
Bought boots, not to my liking, looked completely different to the picture on website.
Sent boots back on the 25 February 2012 still awaiting refund!!!!!!!!
I ordered two pairs of emu boots and they arrived very promptly. One pair was not suitable so I requested a return code which I received the following day. On 14 Feb 2012 I returned the unsuitable pair with a request for an exchange. No problem or so I thought. when checking to see when the exchange of boots would be issued my husband noted that e site had ceased trading. Almost one month late and the boots/refund have not arrived. I now intend to Make a claim to the administrators AND complain to trading standards. Luckily I work for BIS so I have plenty of contacts with the trading authorities..
The first order I made never arrived. After one month of trying to contact the company through phone and email I eventually managed to speak to somebody who organised a new delivery which arrived the next day. However the boots did not fit and I then began the painstaking job of trying to return them. Again no replies to any emails or phone messages, in fact eventually the phone message at Shoe Envy was "Sorry we cannot take your call" and all to get a returns number required for the returned package!!
I have now posted the boots without a returns number so goodness knows what will happen!! I can imagine having a horrendous job trying to get a refund. It goes without saying that the money was taken from my bank account as soon as the first order was made.
Rubbish!! Absolutely no way I would ever use this company again.
My sister had recommended Shoe-envy. She said the delivery was quick and the boots were good quality. I ordered a pair of Fly boots and as promised, the boots arrived quickly. However, the right boot is not up to standard and I wanted to return them. I have tried to contact Shoe-envy following the instructions on the delivery note but the phones are never answered. I have emailed and heard nothing. I have since read other reviews and it would seem that many other people have had the same experience and even when they have returned their items with the RMA code, their money has not been returned. I am extremely disappointed and will continue to pursue the company. I can not afford to lose £79.
Ordering was easy -order was posted very quickly, and I was informed all the time, where my shoes went. It's working!
Have ordered Emu boots from Shoe Envy before & am very pleased with the quality of boots and delivery service provided.
Would recommend anyone to purchase from Shoe Envy.
Have bought Fly London boots previously which are super comfy and stylish, so thought I would try their shoes as I need cushioned soles. They don't disappoint, and it's nice to have a bit of height and not feel like your wearing heels.
Please read this and take note! i wish I had read the other reviews stating the same.... Ordered and paid for boots (over a hundred pounds) - received an email saying 'here is your tracking code' with NO tracking code. Emailed them 3 times, no response at all. The phone number is not obtainable. DO NOT USE THESE PEOPLE EVEN IF THEY ARE LEGITIMATE THEIR CUSTOMER SERVICE SUCKS. I have called my bank and fortunately I can claim under 'unreceived goods over the interent' but have to wait 30 days from when i paid them. Thre are hundreds of other sites you can use, do yourself a favour and use them instead of this nightmare company
Brilliant service.. super fast delivery and excelent price!!!
Have ordered from shoe-envy before no problem.Ordered emu boots at £105, have returned them and was going to order an alternative BUT HAVE HAD NO RESPONSE FROM THEM OR A REFUND, THE BOOTS WERE RETURNED 2 WEEKS AGO, UNABLE TO CONTACT BY PHONE AS NUMBER CANNOT BE CONNECTED.AM NOW £105 DOWN.NO REPLY TO ANY EMAILS.DO NOT ORDER FROM THESE MUPPETS!!!!!!
i was a bit dubious of buying these shoes (2 pairs) as the price seemed to cheap.
However they are both exactly what i was hoping and arrived the next day,
I will buy all my shoes here from now on!
Ordered fly boots 22nd Feb arrived Saturday am but are too tight. Tried at least 30+ times to contact company but get "sorry you call cannot be connected" no replay to any of my numerous emails so did abit of digging. I have friends that way. Shop in Shaftesbury was full of shoes last week this week it has been emptied!!!!!!!! Also been told that they are hardly ever at the Warehouse in Gillingham. something is very wrong.......at least I still have boots to hopefully sell on & recoupe my money. I had read reviews on here over 2 weeks ago & all looked ok

Ordered two pairs of fly boots, only one arrived despite invoice saying box included both pairs. have tried ringing in excess of 50 times to be greeted with 'your call can not be connected', no response from emails despite sending to three different addresses. I have even tried ordereing again from web site and strangely enough everything is out of stock For this reason I have now raised dispute with paypal
Very very angry!!!
Update now says ceased trading on website!!!!
It is with regret I write a poor review. I wish to return an item but have been unsuccessful in gettng the relavent RMA number needed. The telephone number is either not connecting or going to voice mail and my e-mails are not being responded to. I fear I may be stuck with an item I do not wish to keep.

I bought 2 pairs of fly boots. One pair arrived. Initially able to contact the company who assured me that the other pair would be sent that day. 1 week later , no boots, £75 down and unable to get hold of the company despite numerous emails. The telephone number is now unobtainable.
Avoid this company!!!!!!

Fabby company. Brillant 1st time buter experience. Will defo shop here again. Thanks shoe envy x
I would recommend Shoe Envy excellent service all round and fast delivery. Cannot fault them at all
The shoes were just what i expected and the service was good. Contact was fast and reliable. Price exceptional.
Quick and easy website with no hassles and shoes were delivered quickly and are fab!
Quick delivery. Boots are still currently retailing at £114.99 on most websites. Only thing that let thw site down was that the boots were slightly scratched. Nothing but a little bit annoying. That said it wouldn't put me off shopping on the site again :)
I ordered and paid for two pairs of fly london boots - one pair arrived, and I have been trying to contact shoe-envy via telephone (number given on website doesn't work) and email (no reply after at least 5 emails). I'm left with one pair of boots instead of two, and £75 down.
Ordered Fly boots at a good price and they came quickly. Problem is they don't fit and I need to return them. Three emails have gone unanswered and the telephone number is not connecting. Do not buy from this company, there is something suspicious about it all.
Now left with boots and down £100.

Brand new unopened boots which is a lot more than you get in a shoe shop. Very efficient.
I bought a pair of Emu boots, by far the cheapest online and the service is terrific. Excellent service and will buy again
Shoes arrived on time in good condition and exactly as I ordered! What more can I say (haven't had a chance to wear the shoes yet!)
i purchased some fly boots from shoe envy ltd. They arrived promptly, so far so good.
However, they did not fit. I tried and tried and tried to contact show envy ltd, after several emails and goodness knows how many phone calls i finally got a returns number from them over the phone, even though they claimed to of already emailed it too me.
So i sent the boots back to them via the printed returns label, and suprise suprise they claim to have not recieved the boots. After nearly 50 attempts to contact them via phone i finally got an email saying to send them prrof of postage. So i sent the receipt to them recorded delivery, and the post office say no one was availible to sign.
I took a copy the reciept before sending it.
So the company claim not to have recieved the boots, other people have had the same experience, i now left without the boots and out of pocket.
This company is a joke.
Can not get through via phone, emails are not being answered, suspect comapny has gone bust ? Not suprised with this appaulling level of service.
I bought a pair of boots at a very reasonable price and they were dispatched quickly, however I have been unable to contact the company to request a return number (needed before sending the item back).
I have emailed them twice and called on numerous occasions. I left 2 messages on the answer machine, then when I called again a message told me the voicemail inbox was full and now when I tried to call again today, the number was unavailable.
I would not use this company again; I will write to them tomorrow and intend to report them to Trading Standards if I do not receive a response.

Their delivery is fairly fast, and the mail tracker was useful. However I want to return my purchase, and I'm finding it extremely hard to get in touch! I have sent three emails to the three different addresses provided and still no reply! When trying to call them, I'm just greeted with an automated messages informing me my call cant be connected.
I ordered from Shoe-envy before and paid for next day delivery and everything was fine and I was pleased with the Boots I received. However this time has been a nightmare. I chose standard delivery this time and I received a dispatch notice the next day, but the tracking link to royal mail was broken and I had not recieved my tracking code. It has been over a week since the dispatch note was sent and the shoes have not arrived. I have sent four e-mails and phoned countless times. All of their telephone numbers even the ones I found on the BT directory are not connecting. I eventually found a mobile number connected to the company, which went straight through to the answer machine. I actually went as far as to phone another shop near Shoe-envy to make sure they hadn't shut down. I have not had a single reply and still have not recieved my shoes. If I do not recieve any reply by tomorrow I will begin a dispute with pay pal.
I have now started a dispute with Shoe-envy via pay pal. I really suggest not using shoe-envy, there is something very dodgy going on here, I don't know why sometimes they're great and sometimes they're terrible, but considering how terrible they can be when things go wrong I wouldn't chance it and if you do use them, go with pay pal so at least you can dispute the transaction.

Horsebit Collection
The Horsebit Collection
Emblematic of Gucci glamour, the Horsebit was introduced as a decorative element on handbags in the 1950s. Designed to recall the horse riding tradition in Florence's high society, it has since evolved into the bold hardware on handbags and shoes, prints on canvas handbags and silks, watches and most recently, Fine Jewelry. Reworked by Gucci's Creative Director Frida Giannini in a contemporary style, the Horsebit takes on softly sensual shapes to become a jewelry collection.
The bracelet was one of Frida's first creations and the Horsebit motif was then developed into an extensive collection. Among the variants is the Horsebit Marina Chain Collection, a splendid marriage of two symbolic Gucci icons: the unique Marina Chain motif and the highly iconic Horsebit element. The result is an elegant range that combines the fluidity of the chain elements with the bold lines of the Horsebit hardware in 18kt gold.

Nanda Devi / Skin Horse
Apterran Records offers up 30-minutes of sludge riddled post-metal with this split from a pair of American bands. Nanda Devi kicks off the proceedings with the expansive, eighteen minute "Lifelong Migration," which thankfully avoids the oversaturated brand of melody used in typical post-metal, instead offering sparse and punishing meditations more in line with Neurosis and the short-lived and terribly underrated Abandon. Sure the tremolo guitar lines that dominate the first half of the composition are indeed plenty melodic, but in a much more truly melancholy way, as opposed to the either ebullient or shoegazing fodder often heard in this style. Rather than soaring through lush atmospherics Nanda Devi haunt more terrestrial, dark human territories, and this song is defined by its punishing nature delivered via viscous riffing, heavy handed percussive rhythms, and unrelenting mood. True to genre form, the song ebbs and flows to and from loud and aggressive turns, but even at its lowest points in this cycle maintains a menacing tone.
San Francisco's Skin Horse's "109" clocks in at nearly fourteen minutes. The most interesting thing about its inclusion is its nontraditional and disjointed trajectory. Beginning like a standard and passable if uninspiring post-metal track, the song then suddenly shifts into tumbling riffs and insistent, propulsive drumming. But at the midway point the band grinds gears and slows into a lurching sludge, and when vocals are finally introduced they're layers of pained howls and gruff bellows, temporarily erasing any last vestiges of post-metal. Thing is, Skin Horse doesn't sit still for long, and as soon it feels like the track has finally gotten where it was going all along, the band shifts yet again, into sparse melody and swirling atmosphere a la Neurosis. Normally this kind of disjointed song development would be a negative, but in this case it at least raises an eyebrow as a contrast to what has become a very dry and predictable genre.
While failing to shake me out of my post-metal malaise, this split does offer something just a little different than the usual fare. Both bands do enough to warrant a look, although I preferred Nanda Devi's style more than Skin Horse's cut and paste attack.

Okay, lets go, here is my ...problem?!
I read that you can play games with the new CFW 3.55 , but some guys said that you can´t , some said it works.
I know that you can´t handle with a BUM at the moment via CFW , but I can play Castlevania right !? - But how can i do this? Maybe i´m an idiot and didnt see a tutorial here, but i didnt find it.
When there is a Tutorial, i´m sorry. :o
It would be awesome, if someone can show or tell how i can play then castlevania :) please be delicate with me.
Hm, i also read that some games can be played with cfw 3.55 because this some games have auto boot function or something else, how can I play this games or isn´t it possible?
Okay, i´m waiting for some answers :)
Ok and here is an other question too.
I´m not the best in english, and i´m asking me all the time, because i couldn´t understand all , is it to be recommended for me to install CFW now?
I mean i´m new in the ps3 scene i just played burnout and some other games with my ps3, i didnt know that you can play with homebrews etc.

Google escaped penalties associated with the Federal Communications Commission's electronic eavesdropping law in the agency's investigation of private user data collection through Street View mapping. There simply isn't a precedent for applying the law to unsecured Wi-Fi networks.
However, the FCC did propose a $25,000 fine against Google. The search company "deliberately impeded and delayed" the investigation into the 2010 incident for several months, according to a Saturday FCC news release.
According to the FCC, Google was reluctant to cooperate with investigators. An engineer who developed the Street View code chose to use his Fifth Amendment right to avoid self-incrimination and refused to provide testimony.
In a statement to the Wall Street Journal, a Google spokesperson said, "We worked in good faith to answer the FCC's questions throughout the inquiry, and we are pleased that they have concluded that we complied with the law."
Google will have the opportunity to appeal the FCC's fine.

Dear moderator:
Recently i was confused with a equation in a example named {BUOYANT.PDE} in the FlexPDE software. The equation is as follows:
dt(U) + U.grad(U) + grad(p) = nu*div(grad(U)) + F (*)
this is incompressible form of the Navier-Stokes equations, nu is the kinematic viscosity, which is equal to mu/rho, where mu is dynamic viscosity and rho is density of liquid. So the problom is: if the above equation should be:
dt(U) + U.grad(U) +1/rho* grad(p) = nu*div(grad(U)) + 1/rho*F, (**)
However, the following calculation in that example is based on the (*), and result addresses the buoyant problem well. if in practical issue, can this method lead to false result? for body force F is different from 1/rho*F in eqution(**).

2014 Sites are Announced! Click here to learn more!
Big Sky BreaksAway: A week of service in Montana.
On MSU BreaksAway trips, students volunteer their time to meet community needs during the university spring break.
BreaksAway trips typically happen outside of the state of Montana, however, for the first time ever we will be sending groups of student ONLY in Montana! We will only be doing this for BreaksAway 2014 as part of the Year of Engaged Leadership. The Montana host communities will benefit from the student's hard work and energizing spirits and the students come back to MSU with an enhanced understanding of the diverse issues that face our great state.
Mission of BreaksAway
The mission and purpose of the BreaksAway program is to cultivate in MSU students a spirit of community involvement and to nurture service leaders who will give back to our state, nation, and the world. MSU students work together with communities around the U.S. to promote life-long community involvement and critical thinking about our societal challenges and the roles each one of us can play in addressing those challenges.
What is BreaksAway?
On MSU BreaksAway trips, students volunteer their time to meet community needs. The communities that host MSU BreaksAway groups may be as far away as another country or only one state away. The host community offers opportunities to learn about and experience challenges that are either larger in scope or foreign to Bozeman area community challenges. Students come back to MSU with an enhanced understanding of the diverse issues that face our national and global community. Communities see tangible results from the MSU student's projects, while students gain new skills, perspectives and relationships. Trips are organized by the Office of Activities and Engagement and are led by two MSU student Site Leaders.

Osteoporosis is a significant loss of bone density and strength that affects millions of women and men in the United States. The only way to tell if you have osteoporosis is by measuring the bone mass through a specialized bone density test.
Bones have a thick outer wall that is very dense and strong. Inside normal bone is a spongy, honeycomb-like structure. In people with osteoporosis, the holes of the honeycomb are greatly enlarged, making the bone less dense. Not only does osteoporosis gradually weaken bones, making them prone to fractures, but the associated bone loss can be irreversible.
The best treatment for osteoporosis is prevention. Adequate calcium consumption and weight bearing exercise by adolescents and young adult women can increase bone mass, which can reduce bone loss and lower risk of fractures in later years.
Bone density tests are provided at:
