Fifth International Animation Festival Begins Tonight at the Embarcadero
Sponsored by the San Francisco Film Society, the city's fifth International Animation Festival, a four-day celebration of innovative artistry and visionary storytelling, opens tonight at the Embarcadero Center Cinema.
This year's selections include the Decemberists-inspired Here Come the Waves: The Hazards of Love Visualized; animated music videos featuring the music of Rage Against the Machine, Paul Oakenfold and Gorillaz; and brothers Edward and Rory McHenry's Jackboots on Whitehall, in which puppets, voiced by the likes of Ewan McGregor and Tom Wilkinson, reveal what might have transpired if the Third Reich had occupied Buckingham Palace during World War II.
Oscar Winner Danny Boyle Tells the Tale of the Man Who Traded His Arm for His Life
Danny Boyle has directed stories about rage-driven zombies, Scottish junkies on the lam, and an unlikely game-show champion educated on the unforgiving streets of Mumbai, but never has he accepted a challenge as daunting as 127 Hours.
Inspired by the real-life ordeal of mountain climber Aron Ralston, pinned to the wall of Utah's Blue John Canyon for nearly five days by an errant boulder, Hours, which opens Friday, finds the Oscar-winning Slumdog Millionaire director and screenwriter Simon Beaufoy pulling their most ambitious trick to date – translating the agony of a man totally immobilized into riveting, briskly paced drama.
Indie Filmmaker Gareth Edwards Explains Why CGI Is the Great Equalizer
Gareth Edwards won't reveal the budget for Monsters, his thriftily constructed feature debut about two young Americans trying to buy their way back from Mexico following an alien occupation. Yet he's quick to acknowledge that his acclaimed sci-fi fantasy might never have been possible without advances in filmmaking technology usually associated with big-budget blockbusters like last year's Avatar.
Jeff Goldblum Talks 'Morning Glory,' Leaving 'Law & Order' and Waking Up with Martha Stewart
Jeff Goldblum isn't really a morning person – much of the time, his sleep schedule is dictated by his work – but that doesn't stop him from catching MSNBC's Morning Joe whenever he can, sometimes as early as 3 a.m. if he's lucky enough to be staying at his Los Angeles home.
Goldblum, the 58-year-old star of David Cronenberg's 1986 sci-fi classic The Fly and, more recently, the USA network's Law & Order: Criminal Intent, returns to the big screen this week with Morning Glory, the new comedy from director Roger Michell (Notting Hill) about a work-obsessed TV producer charged with rescuing a floundering morning talk show.
Todd Solondz Follows 'Happiness' with the Post-9/11 Confusion of 'Life During Wartime'
Todd Solondz can't wait to get to Chicago, the next stop on the promotional tour for his challenging new drama, Life During Wartime.
Unfamiliar with Mark Twain's appraisal of the City by the Bay's seasonal chill factor – "The coldest winter I ever saw was the summer I spent in San Francisco" – Solondz, a New Jersey native, craves heat and humidity. But lounging in a climate-controlled suite at the Prescott Hotel, the 49-year-old director seems to have found his comfort zone.
Former 'SNL' Players Will Ferrell, Tina Fey Embark on 'Homoerotic' Adventure
It's a formidable comedy match: Will Ferrell and Tina Fey, reunited for the first time since their years together at Saturday Night Live, each having graduated to movies and, in Fey's case, the Emmy-winning NBC comedy 30 Rock, which she created and stars in.
They find themselves gamely butting heads in Megamind, the animated satire in which Ferrell plays the titular super-villain, ordinarily hapless in his attempts to subdue Brad Pitt's cocksure crime fighter, Metro Man. When one of Megamind's schemes actually pays off, leaving him without a worthy nemesis and Metro City vulnerable, the diabolical genius becomes the unlikely savior of a city in crisis.
Doomed Romance Blossoms in the Aftermath of an Alien Attack in 'Monsters'
It was routine mechanical failures and budgetary restraints, more than divine – marine? – inspiration, that led a young Steven Spielberg to keep his shark from audiences throughout so much of Jaws. In the case of first-time feature director Gareth Edwards, the choice was dictated by necessity: To make a $15,000 movie about monsters, the monsters would have to stay scarce.
Monsters is no Jaws, but the comparison is apt on one level: Edwards, like Spielberg, manages to sustain tension even in the absence of early or frequent payoffs. Rather than unleashing his beasts, Edwards hides them, letting the threat they pose loom in their absence. The shadows are pregnant with peril.
When Keeping It Real Goes Wrong: Sundance Standout 'Four Lions' Makes Bay Area Debut with South Asian Film Festival
It sounds like an invitation for righteous outrage – an unflinching comedy about jihad-minded suicide bombers determined to strike a blow for Islam but too dim to settle on a plan. Incredibly, first-time feature director Christopher Morris, who co-wrote Four Lions with Sam Bain (BBC's Peep Show) and In the Loop screenwriters Jesse Armstrong and Simon Blackwell, pulls it off, with a hilariously biting satire that turns unexpectedly poignant when his terrorist wannabes stumble into the final phase of their half-baked operation.
Indie Theater Roundup: 7 Movies to See This Week
The Giants are world champions, the season of Oscar contenders has arrived, and the San Francisco International South Asian Film Festival is in full swing this weekend at the Castro. Whether you're a sports fan or a cinephile, it's a great time to be in the Bay Area. Here are some of the most exciting features now playing at an indie theater near you.
With 'Fair Game,' Doug Liman, Naomi Watts Get to the Heart of Valerie Plame's CIA Nightmare
Actors usually feel an elevated sense of responsibility when playing real-life characters, a desire to do them justice without pulling any dramatic punches. Especially when their living alter egos are monitoring them on the set.
Just ask Naomi Watts, who stars as ex-CIA officer Valerie Plame in Doug Liman's new thriller Fair Game. Watts first met Plame during filming, long after her cover with the agency had been blown as the result of a White House leak following her husband's public discrediting of the Bush administration's claim that Saddam Hussein had obtained weapons-grade uranium from the African nation of Niger. Getting to know the onetime covert operative presented a unique challenge.

I've been working on the concepts behind a setting for a long while, and now that I've hammered out most of that, I've started to need to work on the various peoples of the world. Unfortunately, I've got no map to sort out just who lives where and who they trade with, etc. That's what brought me here. This is my first attempt at really making a map that is more than a rough sketch on some scrap paper, so any and all input is invited and welcome.
Being my first map, I figured it might be best to post it in stages, so ya'll can point out the obvious before I really muck it up.
So here is the initial blob sans outlying islands (yet to be drawn, except the few in the very north where I got ahead of myself):
And here is the same map with the tectonics drawn in, so I can sort out mountains:
Arrows denote the direction the plates are moving. The solid red lines are the edges of the place. Those without adornment are transform plate boundaries; those with lines in a single direction are convergent plate boundaries; and those with lines on both sides are divergent plate boundaries.
Right now, this is just the actual landmasses. I eventually intend to drop a fair amount of glaciation on this, as the world is ambiguously at the end of an ice age and undergoing rapid global warming. In-game, fire fell from the sky toward the north two hundred years ago bringing the demon scourge that has since plagued humanity. Their corruption has steadily crept south, causing massive storms, torrential rains, massive flooding, entire cities sinking into the ocean, etc. I am largely seeing this as a flat world (it is a fantasy setting, obviously), with the northern quarter to third of the continent under glaciers, and the penultimate quarter-ish being permafrost planes or taiga.
A couple of things I am unsure of include:
- How to draw/represent a rift valley
- What to do about the glaciation and ice sheet beyond, since the far, far north (beyond the boundary of this map) is suppose to be a hot, horrific wasteland populated by demons
Stylistically, I want something that exudes a sense of darkness, desperation, and panic - the sort of things that the people of the setting are coping with. If it helps any, I generally like the style of this map.
If it's okay to double-post in this forum, I'll continue posting additional progress as it happens. I think my next step is to draw in the mountains and elevation.

Review: The Sufferfest indoor training videos
- By Caley Fretz
- Published Jan. 18, 2011
- Updated Jan. 28, 2011 at 4:15 PM EDT
"Fear is the path to the dark side. Fear leads to anger. Anger leads to hate. Hate leads to suffering." So says Yoda.
Are you scared of failure? Of losing?
I am. That fear is what sends me onto the back porch in the middle of winter, into sub-freezing temperatures with only a few thin layers' protection, mounting up my rollers in a vain attempt to avoid my least favorite, but utterly inevitable, spring-time activity: losing. Enter The Sufferfest, a series of training videos so sublimely evil one can't help but grow angry, boil with hate, and finally embrace the suffering.
The Sufferfest has six videos in all, each with a specific focus — everything from super short high-intensity efforts to long threshold sessions. I used and was abused by The Downward Spiral, The Hunted, and Sufferfest's latest addition, Local Hero, over the course of a month and a half. Local Hero, set at the 2010 Road World Championships, was my personal favorite.
Tolerable is about as good as it gets riding inside, and the Sufferfest videos get you there better than anything we've used. Real-world race footage from the likes of Paris-Roubaix, the Tour de Suisse, and worlds combined with helmet-cam footage from amateur races put you right in the action. Add a good soundtrack and easy-to-follow text cues (preceded by some familiar noises to get your attention, like a gunshot to start intervals) and it's almost fun. Almost.
The Sufferfest training videos
Pros: real-world video, great soundtrack, easy-to-follow text cues, superb workout
Cons: you still have to ride inside
The scoop: the most entertaining and effective training videos we've come across
Buy them at:TheSufferfest.com
Videos are 45 to 85 minutes, and always start and finish with some nice easy riding for warm up and cool down. The aforementioned text cues are spread throughout and spell out interval (or rest) time and intensity. Sometimes they're just motivational, or humorous. In Local Hero, you play the lone road worlds competitor from the nation of Sufferlandria, a nation you must not let down. Anything to trick ourselves into doing the workout, right?
Intensity levels are given on a scale out of 10, so you do need to have some ability to gauge and assess your efforts. I overshot the first workout significantly and barely finished it — if done correctly the videos provide a painful but not overwhelming ride, definitely hard enough to keep boredom at bay.
The footage itself is, for the most part, high quality. The pro race footage is mostly what we've all seen on TV, shot from a following moto. I actually enjoyed the helmet cam footage shot at local races more, finding it much easier to trick my head into forgetting I'm not actually going anywhere. The video quality has increased from video to video.
The Sufferfest series is available for download online. Each video is less than $12 for individual use and the files are large, nearly 2 GB, so make sure you have a fast connection or lots of time before downloading. You can also order a backup CD for $11.95.
For those of us stuck inside, even occasionally, the $12 is more than worth it. The Sufferfest series is more entertaining than anything else I've found, and the variety has kept me coming back for more, albeit a bit begrudgingly.

A few pics. Guess I lied before. Pistol on right is actually a US Revolver co. Its made by Iver Johnson but it has a 1/2 cock instead of the "hammer the hammer" action. It was supposed to be a 32, ended up being a 38. One on left was supposed to be a 32 and ended up being a 22, both from the same guy. Some people cant get nothing right, but got a $25 discount out of it! # 2&3 from left and the one on right are the only ones made for smokeless powder, others are all black powder. I shoot CBs in the 22. The hammerless pistol was my first one about 15 years ago and the model 55 Winchester is the one that started my lever action Winchester addiction when I was about 7 years old
Nice haul packmule! Man I miss hunting duck and geese!!
Honkers, Speckles, and Mallards......Oh My!
I bet that was a good time!
There were a cpl sprigs and gadwall in the mix, looks like the sprigs had already been pulled out of the group so they didn't get messed up before going to the taxidermist. Fun hunt with several younguns <12yo on their first goose hunts. Going to Oklahoma on Mon & Tues to get filmed shooting them for an advertisement video.
Anyone know anything about OTC Barbary Sheep hunting in New Mexico or where I could get some more info? Cant seem to find much info or harvest stats on the NM site. I expect it it would be a tough hunt but would get to see some new country and could go in the off time from other hunts!

They don't fly much where I hunt either. I have to go to North Texas to get into them.
Re machined part of a ford transmission to use on a chevy transmission. Now if I can find a seal to fit both since the chevy has a smaller input shaft. If not have to machine some more. Same transmission just slightly different version. Ford version is pretty common, chevy isnt. Not sure how anyone could break off the sleeve the throw out bearing slides on but I guess the guy that had it was talented in all the wrong ways. lol

Bagnall has restored pride at Susquehanna
BY JOBY FAWCETT, Times-Shamrock Writer
Pride is just something you can't measure.
It can be challenged at every turn, and often is in football.
How a player reacts when faced with an attack on one's pride can often mean the difference in wins and losses.
How a coach responds is an entirely different story.
Dick Bagnall is proof of what can be accomplished when protecting pride.
In 2004, Bagnall had been in retirement, going to Susquehanna Sabers football games, enjoying them from outside the rigors of the daily grind.
There were no more long days at practice. No more nights of film study. And no more hours away from his family.
Look, he earned a rest.
In 21 years, he built Susquehanna's program. He won 135 games and grabbed the crown jewel of the Suburban Conference by winning the District 2-12 Class A championship final overLakelandin 1994.
And repeated again in 1995.
After his departure, however, the Sabers fell on hard times. Interest began to wane, losses mounted and the administration put the program on life support.
His pride couldn't let everything he had built just get tossed to the side.
So, in the most dire days of a 26-game losing streak, Bagnall came back after three games had already gone by the wayside in 2004.
His goal, simply to get the program back to being competitive.
He's done so much more.
Blue Ridgecame aboard to co-sponsor the program and the infusion of talent boosted interest.
After agonizing through seven more losses, most of them lopsided, Bagnall turned things around in 2005, winning four games.
A small step for most programs, a giant leap for Susquehanna.
There have been ups and downs still, but what Bagnall has done at Susquehanna during his stay is a truly remarkable measure of a man who has an incredible amount of pride in the blue and white.
In the last three years, even with a roster number hovering between 25 and 35 players, Bagnall has seen his program become not only competitive, but relevant again.
His dedication to the deceptive veer-option offense frustrates opponents. His linemen have dedicated themselves to becoming bigger and stronger. His defensive players are more aggressive.
Last season, Susquehanna celebrated a Lackawanna Football Conference Division III title and a 9-2 season. A level of success many thought to be unattainable.
Not Bagnall.
And many thought, with a big senior class graduating last year, that it would be his last stand. His one final bow before the curtain dropped.
But Bagnall returned.
Pride forced him back to the sideline.
Tonight, he leads his Sabers into their yearly clash with Montrose, their bitter rival.
Susquehanna sports a 4-2 record and is challenging for a return trip to the District 2 Class AA playoffs.
His team has won 19 games in the last three years, and Bagnall deserves a lot more credit than he will ever accept or receive.
In the grand scheme of things, Bagnall is truly one of the finest coaches this conference has ever seen. And maybe nobody outside ofSusquehannaCountyappreciates his contribution to the sport, but they should.
Whenever Bagnall decides to walk away, he will have done it his way.
With determination and an attention to detail.
And with a great deal of pride.

History is peppered with tales of phenomenal ideas taking shape in sleeping minds; Paul McCartney said that he awoke with the tune of Yesterday in his head, and Robert Louis Stevenson said that the idea for The Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde came to him in a dream. But what exactly is going on in our minds while we sleep? Does slumber really prompt creative genius? And can the most uncreative of people receive flashes of inspiration once their head hits the pillow?
Scientists believe that the mind at night weaves together bits of information in innovative ways. Throughout the day your brain rarely gets a chance to stop and think. In a state of constant alertness, it responds to a stream of challenges, from writing a report for a work deadline to remembering where you left your car keys and figuring out what to buy for dinner.
Even when we are relaxing in front of the television, the brain is still beavering away, processing the information about the plot lines, or co-ordinating your arm movements every time you sip your wine. Believe or not, even watching Strictly Come Dancing requires brain power. Sleep is the only time when your brain gets to relax and mull over the thoughts of the day. This is when new ideas and ways of thinking start to emerge.
"Think of your brain like a web," says Russell Foster, Professor of Circadian Neuroscience at Oxford University.
"During the day the web is very tight, so you can only put information in a certain number of places. During sleep the web expands, and with the luxury of time, those bits of information can be put into lots of different places and make new associations."

Sneaky Space Aliens
If alien life really does exist out there, somewhere in the universe, I really hope it is something like the Vulcans from Star Trek. Note that this is not due to any preference of Star Trek over other science fiction series, but rather an observation of all the not-so-friendly alien life we see in movies, television, and other media. Seriously, would you rather have a space elf giving you the secrets to advanced medicine, space travel, art, and culture, or a xenomorph from the Alien(s) movies? Or the invaders from The Avengers? Or any number of Dr. Who villains? Daleks? No thank you.
No matter what type of life might actually be out there, the quest to find it is a tricky one. More so now considering recent evidence that our current methods of detecting alien life on far-off planets might not be as reliable as we had hoped.
In a new study from the University of Toronto Scarborough, a team of international researchers led by UTSC Assistant Professor Hanno Rein of the Department of Physical and Environmental Sciences noted that the methods used to detect life – more accurately, "biosignatures" – on exoplanets is likely going to lend to results that are false positives. Environments that contain multiple chemicals like methane and oxygen in an exoplanet's atmosphere is one of the things our current detection protocols deem an example of a biosignature, which means evidence of past or present life. What Professor Rein and the team discovered is that a lifeless planet with a lifeless moon is able to simulate these same results, meaning that any results found using these methods need to be reconsidered. A lot of research also uses modeling in order to try and estimate what the atmosphere of these exoplanets might be like, but with our present technology these are unable to make any sort of conclusive observation. Our current methods are able to estimate the size and temperature of these far-off worlds, which determines whether liquid water could exist on its surface. This is commonly considered to be a very important criterion for whether an exoplanet is able to host life, but it alone is not enough to confirm any sort of biosignature.
At present, the resolution we would need in order to properly identify if an exoplanet had a biosignature is impossible to produce. According to Professor Rein, "A telescope would need to be unrealistically large, something one hundred meters in size, and it would have to be built in space. This telescope does not exist, and there are no plans to build one any time soon." Unfortunately.
At present, there are 1,774 known exoplanets out there. It sounds like a lot, but this pales next to the more than one billion planets that could exist in the Milky Way Galaxy alone. Still, there is still reason to hope that we might discover some form of life out there. According to Professor Rein, we just need to be doing it in the right way. "We should make sure we are looking at the right objects," he says, mentioning a recent discovery of a liquid ocean on Enceladus, one of Saturn's moons. "As for exoplanets, we want to broaden the search and study planets around stars that are cooler and fainter than our own Sun. One example is the recently discovered planet Kepler-186f, which is orbiting an M-dwarf star."
The search for alien life on distant worlds goes on, and knowing what does not work will surely help us discover methods that do. Even so, again, I am still hoping for the Vulcans.

text: Sunday turned into a traffic nightmare for travelers on Interstate 95 in Halifax County following a hit and run accident that left one person dead. State Highway Patrol says both southbound lanes near the Northampton Halifax county line were closed from two o'clock until about six. Details of the accident are unclear, but in addition to the fatality, three other people were taken to the hospital. Officials say they found the vehicle the suspect was driving behind a residence in Roanoke Rapids, but the driver remains on the run.

Message to staff from the Commissioner regarding racism
03 April 2012
Today, Tuesday 3 April, the Commissioner has given the following message to officers and staff in an internal broadcast.
"Today I want to speak to you about one subject.
"I'm sure that you've all been as shocked as I have been about the recent reports of apparent racist remarks and alleged assault by some officers in Newham in August of last year.
"Even so, I wanted to take this opportunity to clearly and categorically reiterate that there is no place for racism in the Met.
"I know that the Met has changed greatly over the years, and most of you have directly been involved in improving our relationship with all Londoners and those who visit us.
"Unfortunately just one alleged incident like this can be very damaging to public confidence.
"This is a great organisation - one we should all be proud to work for. Without pre-judging this case, in any instance of wrong-doing it is a small few who tarnish the vast majority.
"What we have heard over the last few days is of course completely at odds with all the close work that goes on with communities across London every day. We work hard to forge strong relationships with people who can advise us and rightly hold us to account.
"I want us all to go out there and remind those communities of our commitment to fairness and professionalism.
"We have a duty to challenge or report any behaviour by colleagues which is less than the high standard demanded by the service and Londoners themselves. You cannot avoid that duty. Nor can I.
"I will not stand for any racism or racists in the Met."

WEST LIBERTY - There was one person in the West Liberty football program that looked down the schedule after a Sept. 25 home loss against West Virginia Wesleyan. And what Coach Roger Waialae saw was this week's Shepherd game going a long way in determining if his Hilltoppers will repeat as West Virginia Conference champions.
''I'm the only one that's allowed to look,'' Waialae said. ''They're all big, but we control our destiny.
''We've been pretty fortunate here that we've had a chance to play for conference championships.''
The Hilltoppers (4-2 overall, 3-1 WVC) welcome the No. 15 Rams (7-0, 5-0) at 1 on Saturday at Russek Field.
After starting 1-2, it was hard to imagine - for anyone outside the West Liberty locker room - that this week's matchup would hold this type of significance. But since that Wesleyan loss, the Hilltoppers have run off three consecutive victories, averaging 46 points a game.
''(Shepherd's) one call ahead of us - put it that way,'' Waialae said, referring to a controversial touchdown late in the Wesleyan game. ''They're going to come in and run the football. They run to open up the pass, where we pass to open up the run.
''Same idea, but opposite.
''They throw it effectively.''
Coach Monte Carter's offense is led by junior running back Tommy Addison, who is coming off a 23-carry, 152-yard, three-touchdown effort that helped him share WVC Offensive Player of the Week honors with Hilltoppers quarterback Zach Amedro. Addison has run for 916 yards and 12 touchdowns including a league-high five 100-yard performances, and is averaging 141.8 yards a game during conference play.
''But they don't get credit for how they throw the ball,'' Waialae said.
He's referring to quarterback Kevin Clancy who has completed 104 of 174 passes for 1,407 yards and 13 touchdowns. He's thrown just six interceptions, allowing Shepherd to play to at least even in the turnover department. In fact, the Rams have not lost that battle this season.
''Defensively for them, they're pretty good - a lot better,'' Waialae said. ''But I don't know how they're going to play us. In previous years they've blitzed us, but I saw them sit back in a zone against Wesleyan last week.
''But the key offensively for us is, we can't allow them to get pressure with their front four.''
The Hilltoppers have faced zone defenses pretty exclusively this season. After a slow start, Amedro and company seem to have found a comfort level.
The John Marshall grad threw for an even 400 yards and six touchdowns last week against West Virginia State, and is again shattering records. His 108 touchdowns are tops all-time in WVC history, and he tied the Division-II record with his 26th career 300-yard game.
Amedro is averaging 378 yards a game this season. He's 1,414 yards - 353.5 a game - from surpassing East Stroudsburg's Jimmy Terwilliger's D-II record of 14,350 career passing yards
''Not to make excuses for him, but he was hampered with injuries,'' Waialae said.
Receiver Ryan Travis, D-II's leading receiver, set all-time school records in receptions (234) and receiving yards (2,760) last week. Travis has three consecutive games with 13 catches, and has 10 or more each week.
West Liberty figures to need every weapon in its arsenal against the Rams, and it's looking like that could be the case. Tailback Kevon Calhoun, after missing the last two games because of injury, will play. Linebacker Clay Beeler has been working hard in practice, and could be on the field as well.
''He's a tough enough kid and he knows the magnitude of this game,'' Waialae said of Beeler. ''He was running around, but we still don't know. I have to make sure he can protect himself.
''On Tuesday he was running and cutting, but he didn't take part in any team drills.
''It's probably a game-time decision.''

This side dish makes a good accompaniment to lean meat, fish or poultry. Add a whole wheat roll and a glass of fat-free milk for a well-rounded meal.
Substitute frozen whole green beans for fresh.
For easy prep, use kitchen scissors to snip off the ends of the green beans, rather than cutting them.

I would wonder with so many people complaining of the too much mustart, that maybe it was a misprint & should have been 2 tsps instead of TBLS
I LOVE green beans and can usually eat them until I'm blue in the face. However, I could barely stomach these. If you dare try these, I'd definately decrease the amount of mustard quite significantly. The ONLY thing that save these for a 1 star rating was the almonds.

Sophomore Mariah Ramirez threw her second complete game of the season on Sunday against Cal Poly.
Feb. 24, 2013
PALM SPRINGS, Calif. - Due to a pre-established `drop-dead' time of 4:15 p.m. PT to accommodate travel arrangements, the University of Utah softball team settled for a 1-1 tie with Cal Poly Sunday on Yankee Field at the Big League Dreams Complex during the final day of the Mary Nutter Classic.
Utah (8-6-1) extended its unbeaten streak to seven games and the Utes are 6-0-1 in their last seven games. The tie was the sixth in school history and the first since a 5-5 draw against Cal State Northridge at the Kajikawa Classic on Feb. 9, 2007.
Sophomore Mariah Ramirez was impressive on the mound, did not allow an earned run in 7.0 innings and only five hits, while striking out two. The Hawaiian Gardens, Calif., native has now thrown two complete games this year. She has thrown 37.0 innings with a 5.49 ERA this season.
The Mustangs managed to put an unearned run on the board in the second frame, but the Utes answered in the bottom half of the third inning when Hoopiiaina popped a one-out single to right field then junior third baseman Taylor Austin moved her along to second base with a sacrifice bunt. Hoopiiaina then scored after a pair of Mustang miscues on a ball hit by sophomore left fielder Kate Dickman to account for an unearned run.
Hoopiiaina, a Riverton, Utah native, leads the team with a .426 batting average, 20 hits, 16 RBI, 13 runs scored, six doubles and three home runs.
In the first inning, Dickman and sophomore center fielder Chalese Fankhauser came up with back-to-back single and moved to second and third base after a Cal Poly error. Unfortunately, the Utes were unable to break the tie.
Freshman Kristen Stewart was hit by a pitch to lead off the fifth frame and advanced to second after Sweet laid down a perfect sacrifice bunt before Hoopiiaina launched a high fly ball that was lost in the sun by the Mustang defenders and ended up with a double to put Utes on second and third base. Unfortunately, the Utes were unable to push a run across home plate.
After a weekend off, the Utes head to Utah Valley for a Mar. 5 game at 3 p.m. MT.

As they continue searching for more tunnels, troops have begun destroying those they already found.
Published: 07.27.14, 19:59 / Israel News
IDF troops have been hard at work searching for Hamas' terror tunnels since they entered the Gaza Strip on July 17. After finding numerous tunnels, and searching them for entry and exit points, the army started work on destroying them. Below are some videos.
An Armored Corps force destroys a terror tunnel 100 meters away from the Israel border with artillery fire. The tunnel crossed into Israel and had at least three openings, including one in a mosque.
Golani and engineering troops blow up another tunnel that exits into Israel.

A few years ago I wrote an essay about nudity and near nudity in the design of various video game characters, both male and female, and what that signified about those characters' vulnerabilities and strengths. I briefly touched on the very minimal clothing (essentially, a loin cloth) of the protagonist of the God of War series, saying that Kratos's "near nudity makes him less than vulnerable. His physique communicates power and masculinity. The appearance of a desirable masculine trait, perfect musculature, makes him clearly stronger [than he would seem if he were clothed], not weaker" ("Boys Get Naked Better Than Girls", PopMatters, 23 June 2011).

The first time that I played Tharsis, a 10 turn disaster management space sim, I lost the game by turn two. It took me over a dozen games to finally win this brief, but difficult roguelike.
In Tharsis, you are tasked with directing the actions of four astronauts attempting to survive a 10 week trip to Mars. On each of the game's ten turns, bad things happen in various modules of a spacecraft and the ship's crew basically needs to do its best to attempt to put out these fires, while, of course, more and more fires erupt each and every turn. Like I said, this is a disaster management sim played out in a brutally short time frame.
I first played Sid Meier's Pirates! on a Commodore 64 in 1987. I was kind of obsessed with it, and I remain kind of obsessed with it.
In an era when phrases like "open world game" and "sandbox play" weren't familiar ones, Pirates! offered a more robust and unique gaming experience than anything that I had played before.
On January 6th, Louis Vuitton premiered a Spring-Summer collection called Series 4: The Heroine, designed by Nicolas Ghesquière. In the lead up to the event, the famous fashion house released a video featuring Ghesquière's clothes modeled by a virtual heroine, Lightning of Final Fantasy XIII.
After completing Metal Gear Solid V, I went hunting for some explanation of why the second half of the game appeared to be so chock-a-block and unfinished and why the game features so many endings. While figuring that out, I got the impression (though I could be wrong, I didn't read deeply enough to see if that was universally the case) that a number of players were not that happy with the "Truth" ending of the game.
Bizarre and outlandish as that ending is, it seemed to me personally to be the perfect ending to Hideo Kojima's work on this series of games, as it does bring his epic series full circle, connecting this final game he will work on to the very first game that he created in the series from the perspective of the full arc of his storylines, but more importantly to me, it is thematically consistent with Kojima's universe.

Tsunami! Examining Earth's Most Destructive Waves
- Region
- Asia, Sri Lanka
- Grade
- Grades 6-8, Grades 9-12
- Subjects
- Environment, Health, Science, Social Studies & Geography
Students will investigate just what a tsunami is, what causes it, how fast it travels, what it looks like, and its devastating effects upon landfall.
Introduction: Because of massive news coverage in recent years, most students will be familiar with the word "tsunami" and at least vaguely aware that a tsunami is a huge wave and causes terrible destruction and loss of life. But how many students know just how a tsunami is created, how it travels, how fast it travels, what it looks like (if you can see or notice it at all!), and why it causes such enormous damage? This lesson is designed to help students research all of those questions and, in the process, learn about the geography and cultures of places affected, about plate tectonics, and about the physics of waves. The Internet is full of relevant, clear, and fascinating sites about tsunamis.
In addition, students can read the experience of a former Peace Corps Volunteer who went to Sri Lanka after it was hit by the 2004 tsunami. He served as part of the Crisis Corps-a 10-year-old program within the Peace Corps that responds on a short-term basis to crises worldwide. (The Crisis Corps was renamed "Peace Corps Response" in late 2007.)
1. Ask the students in a class discussion what a tsunami is. Leading questions you might ask cover a range of issues. One way of approaching the topic is to raise these issues, list them as the class discusses them, then have the students research the answers for a full story.
- Is it the same as a tidal wave? (Yes.)
- Is "tidal wave" an accurate description? (No.) Why, or why not?
- What causes a tsunami?
- What does a tsunami look like as it traverses the sea. (It may be a swell that is hardly noticeable, or not noticeable at all, to an observer in a ship well out to sea.)
- What does a tsunami look like when it reaches shore? Does it look like a typical breaker, only much larger? (Usually not.)
- How fast can a tsunami travel?
- How far can a tsunami reach from its source?
- How high might a tsunami be when it washes over land?
- Where are tsunamis most common? (In the Pacific and Indian Oceans.) Why are they most common there?
- Are tsunamis predictable? Are there reliable warning systems to alert coastal peoples about an impending tsunami?
2. After raising and discussing these issues, divide students into pairs or small teams and have them research the various issues on the Web or at the library. Following are excellent sites on the Internet for information, diagrams, and photographs related to tsunamis:
- United States Geological Survey (USGS) site with explanations and illustrations about how a tsunami forms, travels, and hits the shore.
- Photographs of structural damage inflicted by the tsunami.
3. Personal Account. Several months after the tsunami hit the shores of the Indian Ocean in Indonesia, Thailand, and Sri Lanka, the Crisis Corps (part of the Peace Corps) put out a call for Volunteers to assist Sri Lankans in putting their lives back together. Former Peace Corps Volunteer Darren Defendeifer was one of those who responded and lent assistance to the fishermen and others who had lost everything short of their lives. Students can read his moving account in "Crisis Corps Sri Lanka" (linked to above).
4. Slide Show. Former Peace Corps Volunteer Amelia Sparks also served in the Crisis Corps in Sri Lanka, bringing assistance to those who were hardest hit by the 2004 tsunami. See her narrated slide show, "Asian Tsunami" (linked to above).

A film of small emotional moments that catches the sense of limbo before striking out on an adult career, "My Beautiful Days" has a gentle, ambulatory pace that mirrors its protag's lack of commitment without alienating the audience or degenerating into a slacker movie.
A film of small emotional moments that catches the sense of limbo before striking out on an adult career, "My Beautiful Days" has a gentle, ambulatory pace that mirrors its protag's lack of commitment without alienating the audience or degenerating into a slacker movie. Too self-effacing to make much distribution impact outside East Asia, sophomore outing by director Im Jong-jae will make a solid addition to South Korean film weeks and foreign language webs' acquisitions.Jun (Kim Hyun-sung), 24, has a month to go on his reserve military duty, spent supervising a parking lot. Between working part time at a small dry cleaning business run by an old man (Myung Kye-nam), he's getting regular workouts shagging an older, married woman (Pang Eun-jin) in a purely sexual relationship. He thinks he should really end the arrangement but, like everything else, he lets it slide. After bumping into a former g.f., Eun-ji (Byun Eun-jeong), now working as a TV presenter, the two start a cautious friendship — nicely drawn when she awkwardly visits him one day — but that too fizzles from a lack of will on both sides. However, when Eun-ji ducks out of a date and sends her friend, Hyeon-ji (Kim Min-sun), instead, Jun finally thinks he's found someone he actually can commit to. Unlike Eun-ji, Hyeon-ji isn't especially beautiful, but she's buoyant, a strong track athlete and loves kung fu movies. The question is whether she also wants a relationship with Jun. Shot in a controlled but not draggy way, pic centers on a small group of characters whose lives touch tangentially but never properly interact, often because of missed opportunities. Jun's melancholy boss always wanted to be an artist but ended up with a dry-cleaning business; Eun-ji always wanted to study abroad. With no great drama, relationships slide away — and Jun finally realizes he mustn't make the same mistake. Despite the subject matter, film never becomes a victim of its characters' lack of direction. Perfs are on the button, and full of small grace notes, with Kim standing out as Hyeon-ji, the only positive force in the movie. Technical credits are well-honed, with a nice Spanish-flavored guitar score by Lee Byeong-woo.

I have been using a Nimrod pack system for the last three years and I love it. They have a holster that compliments the pack system very well and it has a nice big flap that covers the weapon very well. It is really nice when you are crawling through the tangled mess we have here on the oregon coast.

I've used the safe packer and found it to be a bit large and clumsy. I've tried hip holsters on the hip belt but then if you set the pack down the pistol is not accessible. Wearing a holster under the belt is uncomfortable and limits access.
The best method I've found is the HPG Kit Bag. Basically a chest pack for your possibles plus very secure and fast access for pistols sized up to a 4" barrel N frame.

I run a Simply Rugged Chesty Puller for my S&W 4" 629. It's adjustable as to where it rides, on your just or side. I can't say enough about Rob's work as I own several pieces of his gun leather. Prices are very fair for high quality leather.
I went back and fourth on ways to carry and ended up with this. It's an osprey pack that I took to a leather repair guy who sewed on a strap on the side of the hipbelt. The holster is custom made kydex with 1.5" belt loops. It sits far enough back that it is out of the way but still available when needed. I simply take the holster off when I get to where I am going and put it on my regular belt when not wearing a pack. It's gen3 glock 20 chambered in 10mm, it also has a streamlight TLR-2s on it and night sights.
For me it depends on the handgun. For the most part I tend to prefer a chest holster or crossdraw when out in the mountains. It seems to stay out of my way better than a traditional belt type holster.
I wear a simple leather belt with my Ruger Alaskan II .44Mag on my left hip (crossdraw) and a can of bear spray on my right hip. The belt rides lower than the hip belts on all my packs and does not get in the way. I did not want the Ursus Redirectional Devices on my pack because I'm not always wearing my pack. However, the belt can be quickly and quietly removed when I'm sitting and glassing or laying down to rest or riding in the truck or wherever those things get in the way, without taking off the belt holding up my pants. I've come to the conclusion that there is not a great way to carry a handgun and to just deal with a certain amount of discomfort and aggravation.
Diamond D Guides Choice Chest holster is the way to go. Easy access and out of the way of any pack strap. And as an added bonus, it moves weight off your hips. You wont even notice you're carrying. I have two, one for a 629 4" and an Anaconda with a 6" barrel.
I have a kuiu icon pro 5200. Their waste belt actually has a strapping function where you can wear a pistol. Seems very strong and reliable. I carry a 357 with a 4 inch barrel and it holds that totally fine. I actually don't even realize it is there, which is something I really love. Wearing my pistol on my normal belt can get annoying sometimes, cause of the weight.
Could you put that on the other side in a sort of cross draw style. I always seem to pack my rifle on my right side so putting it on the left when hunting would be nice, but would want to put it on my right side when hiking in to go fly fishing up in the mountains so to be able to do both sides would be really nice.

Leading film journalist Anne Thompson is taking on a greater role at indieWIRE as the company enters a period of transition. The news is one of two important developments at iW this week. While Thompson will maintain her popular blog at indieWIRE, her new title -- indieWIRE Editor-at-Large -- formally recognizes a role she has unofficially served for some time at a moment that indieWIRE prepares to add additional new leadership soon.
Rick Allen, CEO of SnagFilms/indieWIRE also confirmed that Todd McCarthy is leaving his post as an indieWIRE blogger. Next month he'll assume a new full-time position at The Hollywood Reporter. In making the announcements, Allen said that, "while we are most certainly happy for Todd's good fortune, and wish him the best of luck, we are equally pleased to announce that Anne has been named Editor-at-Large."
Thompson's appointment is a natural fit for the indieWIRE staff. Her blog, Thompson on Hollywood, is a cornerstone of the Blog Network and she will continue leading TOH while assuming the additional editorial responsibilities here at indieWIRE. On a personal note, indieWIRE's current editor-in-chief Eugene Hernandez and I have known Anne professionally since our early years at iW, and have been inspired by her work. We're also happy to call her a friend and colleague.
While many who work in this business tout Thompson's history with the trades and as a former editor at Premiere, not to mention her talented entrepreneurial voice at TOH, for us at indieWIRE - and her widespread readership - she's a smart, honest, forceful, opinionated and consistent advocate for the art and business of cinema in America and beyond. The iW staff is looking forward to Anne continuing to cement her voice and inspiration on the film landscape while working with indieWIRE and the blog network as they evolve into their next phases.
Leonard Maltin, Peter Bogdanovich, Sydney Levine, Spout, Reverse Shot and our own Eric Kohn's blog will continue to speak their independent voices alongside each other. And, looking ahead, another fantastic addition (and more) will join the indieWIRE Blog Network soon.
iW's editorial team Peter Knegt, Nigel Smith, Bryce Renninger and Sophia Savage as well as our fantastic and loyal group of freelancers will continue covering the scope and ever-evolving independent film world. I couldn't be more pleased and inspired by them. So, as evolution continues, we are excited for what's to come of it as we stabilize our internal team and prepare to bring in a new leader soon.
This week's announcements follow indieWIRE Editor-in-Chief Eugene Hernandez's recent announcement that he is leaving his editorial role later this month after nearly fifteen years since co-founding this company. He'll continue writing his blog on the iW Blog Network after joining the Film Society of Lincoln Center on November 1st.
"I believe in indieWIRE and am committed to its vital mission to support 'filmmakers, biz, fans,'" said Anne Thompson, "a mission which continues under the direction of managing editor and ten-year indieWIRE vet Brian Brooks and his staff. Forbes has called indieWIRE the 'online heartbeat of the world's independent film community' – I'm delighted to help that heart beat even stronger."
"TOH has become a must-read among film industry insiders, the entertainment media and smart-house film fans worldwide," added Rick Allen, "It has been a perfect addition to the indieWIRE Blog Network, and we are committed to the blog's continued growth. In this additional role at IW, Anne will join us in the search for an editor-in-chief to build on indieWIRE's strong DNA and help us chart our future growth."
Brian Brooks is the Managing Editor of indieWIRE.

Many concrete structures are getting older and suffer from concrete delamination. The rehabilitation of these structures involves the chipping of this unsound (spalled) concrete. Although PAM_Ove has more than answered the need for the notorious overhead and vertical surfaces concrete chipping for over 7 years, the industry was nonetheless loud and clear about the fact that there was also a need for an easier and more efficient way to perform deck chipping. We collected data from workers, brainstormed, experimented and came up with what we saw as being the perfect complement to PAM_Ove and the answer to this growing need: the PAM_Dek; the latest innovation in concrete deck chipping by RNP Industries and officially launched at the WOC 2014. (Booth #11953) Anyone who has operated a chipping hammer knows how tough and painful this job can be.
This tenuous operation exposes workers to considerable musculoskeletal strains, vibrations and injury hazards. Furthermore, quick occurring fatigue greatly impacts both productivity & profitability. The PAM_Dek as been designed to overcome these issues by making the task easy, effortless, safe and profitable. The PAM_Dek is a tool holder that enables to perform concrete chipping with conventional pneumatic hammers, while maintaining a vertical posture and minimizing vibration, loads transmission and musculoskeletal strains sustained by the worker. The PAM_Dek includes a vibration dampening system, an ergonomic handle positioning for a comfortable work posture and an engineered mechanism that both neutralize the weight of the tool and converts, amplifies and redirects the weight of the worker to push the hammer against the surface, resulting in very effective concrete chipping. This phenomenon is particularly appreciated since it's no longer required to kneel down and support the weight of the hammer when extreme work angles are required to clear concrete from under the rebars.
Moreover, the same mechanism will also enable the hammer bit to travel forward along the work area while the worker remains stationary. Ease of use, agility, simplicity, lightweight and low maintenance, were all key design criterias throughout the whole development process. PAM_Dek is all air, all is needed is a standard compressor to supply the hammer and the control devices. Much like the PAM_Ove the PAM_Dek is optionally equipped with a water mist system to keep the dust down. Concrete Chipping Has Never Been So Easy & Profitable - Enjoy your chipping ! RNP Industries is a Canadian manufacturer with over 25 years of experience, and specialized in the design and manufacturing of productivity-enhancing equipment. The company's numerous achievements bear testament to its commitment to offer reliable and efficient products. Year after year RNP Industries invests: time, effort and money in R&D to both create new product and continuously improve upon the existing one.

Pffft...I have to under-inflate my tires.
I'm so fast the resulting radical heat increase from the intense friction causes the tires and tubes to expand and explode.
I now spin the tires on the driveway like topfuel dragsters do, this warms the tire and lessens the chance of me ripping it off the rim during takeoff.
I also only ride mtb, road bikes are too flimsy and the amount of torque I use tends to pull the rear wheel forward so much the chainstays buckle. I currently am running a small motorcycle chain.
Lucky I have a friend in the areospace industry, he was able to get a sample of the ceramic tile used to shield the space shuttle from the extreme temp of re-entry.
I currently run the tile pieces as brake pads 'cause everything else melted\caught on fire.
My problem is how to build a ferring as the shock waves coming off my body, helmet, etc. tend to merge with the main shocks some distance from the bicycle.
The resulting pressure pulse changes appear to be N-shaped. To an observer on the ground, this pulse is felt as an abrupt compression above atmospheric pressure followed by a rapid decompression below atmospheric pressure and a final recompression to atmospheric pressure.
The total change takes place in one-tenth of a second or less and is felt and heard as a double jolt or boom.
The resulting shock wave is jarring, the airfoil MAY cone the air burst away from my body.
Perhaps the greatest concern I have about the sonic boom is its effect on the public. The effects run from structural damage (cracked building plaster and broken windows) down to heightened tensions and annoyance of the citizenry.
For this reason, I have been forbidden to operate bicycles in the continental United States.
Ya and I do it at SEA LEVEL. Not like those high altitude wimps....
For example, an bicycle flying along at 685 mph (1,100 km/h) at sea level would be subsonically at about Mach 0.9. The same cyclist riding at 685 mph at 50,000 ft (15,255 m) would be riding supersonically at about Mach 1.05. A difference of 0.15 Mach may not sound like much...but it ****** me off.
A bow shock wave will exist for free-stream Mach numbers above 1.0. In three dimensions, the bow shock is in reality a cone in shape (a Mach cone) as it extends back from the nose of the bike.
As long as the ferring is swept back behind the Mach cone, there is subsonic flow over most of the rider and relatively low drag.
Hope the ferring doesn't look ugly, maybe I'll put some cycling decals on it.
Anybody have links for molding thermo-plastic resins?

Hurricane Katrina- August 25th, 2005
The worst natural disaster to ever hit the United States began as Tropical Depression Twelve over the southeastern Bahamas on August 23rd, 2005. The next morning, August 24th, the storm was upgraded to tropical storm status and given a name----Katrina.
On August 25th, Hurricane Katrina, a small hurricane for only two hours, entered Florida near Hallandale Beach. The storm swept across Florida causing minimal damage and entered the Gulf of Mexico a tropical storm once again.
One hour after entering the Gulf, Katrina began to pick up steam, reaching a category three, with sustained winds of 115mph. The storm actually slowed down when hit with an "Eyewall Replacement Cycle". However, the storm doubled in size and later began to pick up strength, reaching Category 5 status on August 28th, with sustained winds of 175mph.
Katrina slammed into the Southeast Louisiana town of Buras on Monday morning, August 29th. Winds were a sustained 125mph and extended 120 miles from the eye. At the time of landfall, it was the fourth most powerful Atlantic hurricane ever recorded. After coasting through SE Louisiana, Katrina zeroed in on the Louisiana-Mississippi border as a Category Three storm with 120mph winds. In New Orleans, the levees broke, flooding 80% of the city and plunging the city into chaos.
In Mississippi, Katrina created a 27 foot storm surge that went 6 miles inland, destroying the infrastructure of the state's lower 47 counties. 1,836 people died, 700 were unaccounted for, and millions were left without power.
Florida Task Force 5 Responds
Jacksonville Firefighters sprung into action before Katrina made landfall. The JFRD Urban Search and Rescue team was mobilized and rode out to the Florida Panhandle to ride out the storm. Withing hours of Katrina making landfall, Jacksonville Firefighters were on the ground in Pascagoula Mississippi, doing whatever they could to help.

The Citizens of Jacksonville Respond
Jacksonville's Firefighters arrived in the Pascagoula area of Mississippi Tuesday morning August 30th with the task of assisting the needy. They came with enough food to feed themselves for 5-7 days. Upon arrival, they were swarmed by people looking for food and water. As part of their nature, the firefighters gave their food and water to people who needed it more than they did.
Later that day, the firefighters in Mississippi called in to report that they were now in desperate need of food and water. The Jacksonville Fire and Rescue Department sprung into action, announcing to the citizens of Jacksonville that a 12 hour emergency supply drive would start at 8am the following day. All of Jacksonville's 56 fire stations were announced as drop off sites.
Starting at 8am on Wednesday, August 31st, the citizens of Jacksonville responded. Within 12 hours, over 40 tons of bottled water, Gatorade, bug spray, diapers, and other non perishable items were delivered to Jacksonville fire stations. By late Wednesday evening, five tractor trailers were on their way to support Jacksonville's firefighters in Mississippi. That only ended up being a fraction of the amount as over the next several days, Jacksonville citizens donated enough supplies to send 27 tractor trailers of much needed supplies to the hurricane stricken area.

Local 122 Responds
In addition to the urban search and rescue response provided by the Jacksonville Fire Fighters in Florida Task Force 5, members of the Jacksonville Association of Fire Fighters Local 122 responded to Baton Rouge to form a command center to assist fire fighters. From Baton Rouge, Jacksonville Fire Fighters teamed up with fire fighters from all over the nation to relieve firefighters on the front lines, help them find their familes, and get them the necessary supplies and resources to rebuild their lives.

PHILADELPHIA – Lou Gehrig's disease, or amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), and frontotemporal lobar degeneration (FTLD) are characterized by protein clumps in brain and spinal-cord cells that include an RNA-binding protein called TDP-43. This protein is the major building block of the lesions formed by these clumps.
In a study published in the Journal of Clinical Investigation, a team led by Virginia M.-Y. Lee, PhD, director of Penn's Center for Neurodegenerative Disease Research, describes the first direct evidence of how mutated TDP-43 can cause neurons to die. Although normally found in the nucleus where it regulates gene expression, TDP-43 was first discovered in 2006 to be the major disease protein in ALS and FTLD by the Penn team led by Lee and John Q. Trojanowski, MD, PhD, director of the Institute on Aging at Penn. This discovery has transformed research on ALS and FTLD by linking them to the same disease protein.
