Collaborative acquisition of multi-view face images in real-time using a wireless camera networkPublication Year: 2011, Page(s):1 - 6
Cited by: Papers (4)
In order to support real-time face recognition using a wireless camera network, we design a data acquisition service to quickly and reliably acquire face images of human subjects from multiple views and to simultaneously index each acquired image into its corresponding pose. In comparison with detection of frontal faces, the detection of non-frontal faces with unknown pose is a much more challengi... View full abstract»

Staging RANSAC: An indoor camera calibration methodPublication Year: 2011, Page(s):1 - 6
This paper proposes a method of extrinsically calibrating cameras in a rectangular room-like environment. It searches for line segments to indicate planar surfaces in the scene, mainly floor, walls and ceiling and uses the homographical relation between matching features on those surfaces to solve for the calibration parameters of the camera and the planes. It is assumed that the environment follo... View full abstract»
Distributed data association in smart camera networksPublication Year: 2011, Page(s):1 - 8
Cited by: Papers (3)
One of the fundamental requirements for visual surveillance with smart camera networks is the correct association of camera's observations with the track of objects under tracking. Most of the current systems are centralized in that the observations on all cameras need to be transmitted to a central server where some data association algorithm is running. In this paper, we propose a distributed da... View full abstract»
Predictive duty cycle adaptation for wireless camera networksPublication Year: 2011, Page(s):1 - 6
Cited by: Papers (1)
Wireless sensor networks (WSN) typically employ dynamic duty cycle schemes to efficiently handle different patterns of communication traffic in the network. However, existing duty cycling approaches are not suitable for event-driven WSN, in particular, camera-based networks designed to track humans and objects. A characteristic feature of such networks is the spatially-correlated bursty traffic th... View full abstract»

New York may have that big red heart on its logo, but romantic London's always got enough love to share. And to celebrate the adorable and affordable range of independent travel packages offered by Virgin Vacations to the UK capital – like the appropriately-named London Fling – here's part one of our guide to romantic London.
The statue
Admit it, you thought we were going with the obvious one – the little chap of love himself, Eros, twanging away on his bow and arrow at Piccadilly Circus as the crowds pass this way and that. But no, for sheer sentimentality it's got to be The Meeting Place at swish St Pancras International train station a mile or so north. More commonly known as 'The Lovers', it's a nine-metre high bronze sculpture of a crazy-for-each-other couple embracing underneath the station's famous clock.
Altogether now: aaaahh.
The bridge (and song)
Hungerford Bridge, connecting Embankment with South Bank (both fab for romantic walks), tends to get a lot of people's votes. But trust us to be contrary and hop northeast to the very next crossing, Waterloo Bridge, for our next romantic London landmark.
It may not look as inspiring but what a view on this epic bend of the Thames: Westminster and the London Eye one way, St Paul's Cathedral and the City of London skyline the other. Then of course there's the Kinks song Waterloo Sunset for anyone who's ever been in love in – and with – this big beautiful city.
Not forgetting the poem After the Lunch by Wendy Cope: On Waterloo Bridge, where we said our goodbyes / The weather conditions bring tears to my eyes / I wipe them away with a black woolly glove / And try not to notice I've fallen in love.
The book
Can a book be a landmark? Well, this is a literary city, so we'll run with it.
But which one? Bridget Jones? Bit too obvious. One of Nick Hornby's novels? Nah, not that we don't love them, but let's think of something different. Instead, how about a very recently published and already acclaimed work by American author James Salter, entitled All That Is. Only a small part of it is actually set in London – when the main character, a dashing New York book publisher, flies to Europe on business after the war and falls in love with a beautiful Englishwoman – but it's breathlessly romantic and rather racy too.
A little extract:
When she said goodbye, it was like a play ending. It was like the theatre and coming out again to the streets. He saw his reflection in many windows as he passed and stopped to take measure of himself. He felt in possession of the city, not the Victorian city with its dark wood interiors and milky marble halls, the tall red buses that lurched by, endless windows and doors, but another city, visible yet unimagined.
Head over heels yet? Part two of this luscious London affair is on its way soon…

Pro-Action Café has always been one of the most popular and successful workshops organized by Knowmads Hanoi. This time was no different, as over 40 participants showed up at Moonwork Co-Working Space to give and receive support from the community for their projects. With nine callers stepping forward to pitch their projects, the first event of the Year of the Chicken for Knowmads Hanoi was a big success!
The nine projects which received support were:
Conversations happened in three rounds, each round with a guiding question to help move the discussion forward. In each round, three to four participants would join the callers at each table to contribute their ideas and feedback.
In the first round, the callers along with their supporters explored the deeper story behind each of their project/idea. This helped to clarify and strengthen the intentions and purposes, the WHY behind the projects, and what make them meaningful.
In the second round, the supporters brainstormed ideas about what was still missing from the projects that the callers may have overlooked, what would make them stand out and flourish and be sustainable, and not necessarily what the callers still needed like funding, location, partners, etc.
Finally, the callers had some time to reflect by themselves before the third and last round, to figure out what are the wise next steps for their projects, then discussed with their supporters to receive even more feedback. All in all, many new ideas and inspiration were generated, for which the callers were deeply thankful for. Many new bonds and partnerships were also formed, and promises made to continue supporting each other in their projects. There was even a job offer by one of the callers! Such was the power of conversation.

Losing weight may take some time, but the rewards will be well worth it. Here you will find suggestions for healthy weight loss and motivational advice to help you meet your goals.
Don't just rely on your scale as an accurate portrayal of your program. As you lose weight you're also going to build up muscle and muscle weighs more than fat does. So after a while you might notice your weight level off or even go up a bit. Instead you should take your measurements as well. This way if your weight does level off for a while you'll be able to see that you're still getting thinner.
If you're trying to lose weight, it's important to make sure you stay away from sugary-tasting foods and drinks, even those sweetened artificially! The reason for this is that when your body takes in a sweet taste, even if it's not sugar, it primes your insulin pump for a sweet "hit" to come. Your body produces insulin, preparing for more calories to arrive and you become hungrier, making you eat more. So stay away from the sweet tastes and you will find that your appetite goes down.
When your goal is to exercise more for weight loss, make it a point to read fitness and exercise magazines or websites often. Do the same with television shows and books, too. Educating yourself about what exercises can harm you may help save you time. Learning about which exercises are best for your goal can also save you time, and help to inspire you, too.
Be proud when you are losing weight! Do not sucker yourself into buying the tiny bikini you wish you could wear or a new outfit that will take a massive amount of weight loss to fit your body. Instead, celebrate minor weight loss goals by getting a manicure or a massage. The reward can be anything that is about you and your well- being rather than getting wrapped up in fitting into smaller clothing. When you do reach a goal and drop to size you are happy with, go ahead and buy that new outfit!
Cut your juice with half water or club soda. Many juices are filled with sugar and calories that you don't need. If you can cut them in half with something else, you will eliminate a large number of empty calories and sugar from your diet. This can help you to lose a few pounds.
A great way to help you lose weight is to try trampoline aerobics. Trampoline aerobics are really fun, but at the same time very strenuous. If you find a good instructor who will push you, trampoline yoga can become more effective at burning fat than any other type of cardio.
Now you can tell that with some advice and motivation, it is easy to lose weight. Hopefully this guide has given you the necessary information that will help you slim down and get you the body you desire. Believe in yourself.

Loetje restaurant.
By Arjan Van Woensel
Steak lovers will positively drool when one of Loetje's succulent steaks arrives at their table.
Loetje restaurant

The best steak…ever. The Dutch way: with a choice of caramalised onions or mushrooms and extra gravy. I've also had a taste of the celebrated Wagyu steak in the only seven-star hotel in the world, the Burj-al-Arab in Dubai and I can assure you that their steak can't even come close to Loetje's - although Loetje's interior is slightly less flash than the Burj.

Generally speaking, specialists occupy niches in the telecom business that tier one suppliers find difficult to address. Value added resellers in the small business information technology space provides one example. Metro fiber access or transport providers provide other examples. Culture or language focused mobile virtual network operators also do so. Telecom cooperatives, independent rural telcos and municipal internet access providers provide other examples of niches.
For the most part, municipal ISPs and triple-play providers operate in small community niches where either the local telco is capital constrained. Generally speaking, cable TV companies manage to compete against municipal providers better than telcos.
In Opelika, Ala., Opelika Power Services serves 11,000 households with a triple-play services that has about 30 percent market share. Loma Linda Connected Community Program operates in a California community of 9,000 households and has about 1600 customers, representing market share of about 18 percent.
The Vernon Gas & Electric Department Fiber Optic Division reaches about 31 households in Vernon, Calif. It is hard to see how that ever produces much revenue, and scant profit, if any.
NextLight, serving Longmont, Colo., selling gigabit internet access for $50 a month to some potential 33,400 homes, claims to have gotten take rates of 56 percent, extremely high for any overbuilder. The caveat is that NextLight sells both voice and internet access, so it is not clear whether the 56-percent take rate means homes buying at least one service, or the total number of units sold, divided by homes passed.
OptiLink serves Dalton, Ga., with a triple play service, and some argue OptiLink has take rates as high as 70 percent, having been in operation for more than a decade. It never is completely clear what "take rate" means, in this context, as OptiLink does not disclose its take rate, or how it measures.
Oftentimes, take rates are measured in terms of "services purchased" rather than "account homes." In other words, a take rate of 70 percent could mean 23 percent of homes buy a triple play or that 70 percent of homes buy at least one service.
In Bellvue, Iowa iVue, the internet and video provider owned by the municipal utility, passes 966 homes. The key point is that these municipal ISPs mostly operate in rural and other hard-to-reach areas where neither the local telo or cable TV company has been willing to invest in higher-speed internet access or more-robust video services.
Google Fiber's recent experience demonstrates how much harder the business model might be in larger cities where cable TV and telco providers are willing to invest.
Though many are hopeful that these experiences can be replicated more widely, the business model seems to remain a challenge, as few overbuilders in major markets are able to get enough market share, and sustain that share, to successfully challenge cable TV providers, the market leaders in most areas. It might arguably be easier to displace a local telco, as possibly has happened in a few instances.
Still, so far, no independent ISP has been able to displace either a cable company or a telco in a major market.

*Ne-Yo and his booking agent have been ordered to pay more than $156,000 in damages for bailing on a scheduled 2008 New Year's Eve concert in Washington state.
A judge in Anne Arundel County, Maryland ordered the payment Tuesday following a four-day trial in late July and early August.
Promoter Kenyohn Clark sued Ne-Yo, whose real name is Shaffer Smith, and promoter Mike Esterman, who is based in Maryland. Judge Philip Caroom ruled in favor of Clark, who claimed that Esterman misled him and failed to return a $95,000 deposit.
Court documents show Ne-Yo testified at trial that he knew in his "heart of hearts" that the deposit should have been returned.

SCC rules that AB PIPA violates freedom of expression in the labour relations context; PIPA struck down
In Alberta (Information and Privacy Commissioner) v. United Food and Commercial Workers, Local 401, 2013 SCC 62, the Supreme Court of Canada ruled that the Alberta Personal Information Protection Act ("PIPA") violated section 2(b) of the Charter of Rights and Freedoms and could not be saved under section 1 of the Charter.
Specifically, the Court stated:
37. PIPA imposes restrictions on a union's ability to communicate and persuade the public of its cause, impairing its ability to use one of its most effective bargaining strategies in the course of a lawful strike. In our view, this infringement of the right to freedom of expression is disproportionate to the government's objective of providing individuals with control over personal information that they expose by crossing a picketline.
38. This conclusion does not require that we condone all of the Union's activities. The breadth of PIPA's restrictions makes it unnecessary to examine the precise expressive activity at issue in this case. It is enough to note that, like privacy, freedom of expression is not an absolute value and both the nature of the privacy interests implicated and the nature of the expression must be considered in striking an appropriate balance. To the extent that PIPA restricted the Union's collection, use and disclosure of personal information for legitimate labour relations purposes, the Act violates s. 2(b) of the Charter and cannot be justified under s. 1.
Further to the submissions of the Alberta Information and Privacy Commissioner of Alberta and the Attorney General of Alberta, the Court then ruled that PIPA should be struck down in its entirety. However, the Court also suspended the declaration of invalidity for a period of 12 months to give the Alberta legislature time to decide how best to make PIPA constitutional.

Analysis of the genetic pattern of individuals with schizophrenia has discovered numerous variations in DNA that increase the risk of developing the disease.
Significantly, many of these variations occur in genes that affect signaling among brain cells.
"When we compared the genomes of patients with schizophrenia to those of healthy subjects, we found variations in genes that regulate brain functions, several of which are already known to be perturbed in patients with this disorder," said study leader Hakon Hakonarson, M.D., Ph.D., director of the Center for Applied Genomics at The Children's Hospital of Philadelphia.
"Although much research remains to be done, detecting genes on specific pathways is a first step to identifying more specific targets for improved drug treatments."
Researchers also found that the genes and signaling systems linked to schizophrenia had some overlap with those for autism and for attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder.
In fact, the current study found deletions in the same region of chromosome 16 as that found in a copy number variations (CNV) study of autism spectrum disorders that Hakonarson led in 2009.
"Although different brain regions may be affected in these different neuropsychiatric disorders, these overlaps suggest that there may be common features in their underlying pathogenesis," said Hakonarson.
"These genes affect synaptic function, so deletions or duplications in those genes may alter how brain circuits are formed."
The research appears in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, published online this week.
Hakonarson said future studies will investigate how these CNVs and other CNVs yet to be discovered may alter brain function.
Ultimately, he added, better understanding of signaling pathways in the brain may enable researchers to devise better drugs for schizophrenia, drugs that can selectively act on those biological pathways, with better efficacy and fewer side effects for patients.

Few things are worse than drywall dust. It gets everywhere, it travels throughout the house, and it is incredibly invasive. In fact, most house vacuums have codicils in the warranty saying that if you use it on drywall dust, the warranty is voided.
Falling, Drooping, Dripping Sheet Plastic
The "solution" is you tape sheet plastic against the ceiling, walls, and floor with masking tape. You slit a little door at the bottom so you can get in and out. Next morning, of course, the plastic has fallen down. So next you staple the plastic to your walls and ceiling. To keep the staples from tearing through the plastic, you fashion a hem of masking tape along the edges of the plastic. And staple into your walls.
Doesn't sound like much of a solution. Isn't there something better?
Enter ZipWall Barrier System
ZipWall lets you build that plastic wall and it ensures that the wall stays up. Telescoping stainless steel poles with spring-loaded tips from the "studs" of your fake wall and hold the plastic tight against ceiling and floor. Foam-padded rails attach to the top ends of the pole to form a "T" along the ceiling, sealing off any possible penetration point for that drywall dust to infiltrate your house. Optional clamps hold the vertical edges of the wall firmly against the walls of your home.
But Wait. It Does Even More.
These stainless steel poles are sturdy. Two of them can press a sheet of drywall against the ceiling. Or you can use a couple to press crown molding into place, freeing your hands for the hammer or nail gun.
But is it worth it? It certainly works and works well. The materials are high-quality and well-designed. For a small space, you could get by with just two poles, one at each end. That's the minimum. A third pole at center improves things. But you're still not going to get a perfect seal. And drywall dust seems to be able to infiltrate through the tiniest cracks and holes.
The Bottom Line
If you're on a budget, start with a couple of poles to get your feet wet. Rather than buying the special side clamps, it's possible to improvise by tucking the sheet plastic between the pole and the wall. Along the ceiling, you can pull the plastic taut between the poles rather than buying the foam rails. Though not perfect, it's a far sight better than the staple-and-tape method.
Even if you're on a budget but anticipate a lot of renovation activity, spring for the whole system-clamps, rails, and all. Justify the cost on the grounds of saving yourself tons of future pain and misery. It'll help you concentrate on the real task of renovating.
What if you're not doing the work yourself but are hiring a contractor? I'd say if they show up with a ZipWall and set it up in your house, they're a keeper.

Many health workers are angry that their unions suspended a walkout that was planned in England for Thursday of last week.
It's crucial they fight to get the strikes back on in defence of the NHS, and workers' pay and conditions.
Four health unions, Unison, Unite and the GMB and Society of Radiographers —as well as the Royal College of Midwives—wrongly suspended the walkout after last minute talks.
Tory health secretary Jeremy Hunt's refusal to give even 1 percent pay rise proposed by a review body prompted the dispute.
But the new deal on offer doesn't give workers a penny more this year. Karen Reissmann, Unison national and health service group executive (SGE) member, spoke to Socialist Worker in a personal capacity.
She said, "The Tories are now offering workers a 1 percent consolidated pay rise for next year. But because there's no change this year, it's not even a real pay rise.
"This has made people more pissed off."
And the health strikes were about much more than pay. Last autumn's strikes showed that the NHS can become a focus for working class resistance to austerity.
Karen said, "This is a completely wasted opportunity. We had the Tories on the run, with less than
90 days to go until the general election where the NHS is a major issue.
"The last thing they want is health workers standing on picket lines saying there's something fundamentally wrong with the system we work in."
Even health bosses in England's largest hospitals were refusing to sign off on their annual budget agreement last week.
NHS financial watchdog Monitor is trying to force hospitals to cut 3.8 percent through "efficiency savings", but it is has now been forced to delay imposing the deal.
This is just one sign of the pressure that the Tories and NHS bosses are under.
Unfortunately, it's not just the Tories who wanted to see the health strikes suspended. Union leaders were hoping to use the health strikes to hurt the Tories, and to shape Labour's agenda.
Labour has made the NHS its major issue in the general election campaign. But while it hopes to be seen as the champion of the NHS, it is still committed to the Tory pay freeze and public spending cuts.
A deal to end the health workers' strikes would avoid the unions having a dispute with a potential Labour government in the run-up to May's general election—and for a whole year afterwards.
But last autumn's health strikes showed what the real alternative to austerity. Campaigners organised a health question time in Bolton last week.
"Eighty people came and they all gave the Tories a hard time," said Karen. "It really showed people's anger against what they're doing and the potential."
Unison's health SGE was set to meet on Tuesday to decide how it will consult its members. If workers reject the proposal, Unison has said it would call its members out on 13 March.
Every activist now has to fight for a No vote and get the action back on.

Tim Cook Speaks About backdoor After Recent Court Ruling
As per recent Federal court ruling which could force Apple to build a backdoor into their iPhone OS and Apple CEO TIM Cook has now posted a letter on Apple's website regarding the ruling.
Judge Pym ordered Apple to build special software that would essentially act as a skeleton key capable of unlocking the phone. Apple CEO has criticized the ruling and says it could have a serious impact on security.
Some would argue that building a backdoor for just one iPhone is a simple, clean-cut solution. But it ignores both the basics of digital security and the significance of what the government is demanding in this case.
In today's digital world, the "key" to an encrypted system is a piece of information that unlocks the data, and it is only as secure as the protections around it. Once the information is known, or a way to bypass the code is revealed, the encryption can be defeated by anyone with that knowledge.
The government suggests this tool could only be used once, on one phone. But that's simply not true. Once created, the technique could be used over and over again, on any number of devices. In the physical world, it would be the equivalent of a master key, capable of opening hundreds of millions of locks — from restaurants and banks to stores and homes. No reasonable person would find that acceptable.

When trying to cope with tough economic times it may be a good idea to start a delivery business provided that you have some experience and know how of how everything works. However regardless of the business you want to start if you have bad credit and it's a vehicle you are badly in need of then it can definitely put a dent in your plans. Having said that the only way for you to get a vehicle i.e. a van, bus etc will be to find a bad credit auto loans lender.
Before you can get bad credit auto loans you first need to find a good bad credit auto loans lender. These lenders are not very hard to find if you search the internet. However getting approved for these loans can be somewhat of a challenge.
Now before you choose a lender to do business with it would be a good idea to get a few quotes from other competing lenders. I would prefer that you narrow down your search to three of the best and most cheapest lenders online. You then request a quote from these lenders by filling out their online application form. This shouldn't take more than 30 minutes depending on how fast you type. You can then choose the best lender based on the cheapest quote you get back.
You also need to make sure that you read though the lender's terms and agreements. Make sure that you understand them fully before you sign any agreements. This will ensure that you know exactly what you are getting yourself into.

A seasonal mix of fresh blooms and foliage to brighten up anyone's mood. Arranged in a natural style and composed of flowers that I could not leave at the flower market. Hand picked, highest quality blooms.

Greenery, pods, and other odd elements are what make this arrangement unique. Not your average cookie cutter grocery bouquet for sure! This style arrangement no matter what size is entirely based upon what is locally AVAILABLE and will be done in a natural design style. Depending on availability larger blooms may be substituted in for up to 3 regular sized (1-2 inch blooms). Colors may vary. Market fresh guys, so it depends entirely on mother nature and her moods.

How does your organization or team build community?
Remote and Virtual Team Communities
Share this page:
/by Kevan Hall

by Kevan Hall, CEO, Global integration
I was reflecting on the video in a previous blog, Learning from Students : Universities are full of "inclusion mechanisms" to make new students welcome. There are a range of societies, clubs and events (particularly during the infamous Freshers Week) designed to encourage mixing and help people to get to know each other. These mechanisms really work: we form some of our closest friendships during our university years.
The subject of community building often arises during our training and consultancy work on virtual and global teams. Community used to come as a free byproduct of proximity. The fact that we were in the same place made it easy to build relationships and trust. In today's distributed teams and organizations it is often expensive to meet face-to-face, and the costs of building community become much more explicit.
In my first job, I worked in a large factory in North London. It had 4500 people and a huge range of ways in which people could interact and meet each other outside the work context. There was an active social club, a range of sports clubs and internal competitions (including the highly dangerous apprentices versus senior managers annual grudge match). As a young manager, I found these networks invaluable for finding out what was really happening and creating relationships across functional and hierarchical boundaries.
When I returned to the site two years ago it had been acquired by a multinational telecommunications company.There are only 600 employees now, in a single building, and there seemed to be a complete absence of any sense of community. There were no clubs, societies, no real opportunities to network even across floors in the building (unless you were one of the community of smokers exiled to the outside of the building their breaks). By 5.30 pm both the building and the car park were deserted.
People DO need a sense of community. If they don't find it at work, they will find it elsewhere – and this could prove significant for your business. In virtual and global teams, building community is expensive: it can cost $50 – $100,000 just to bring a typical team together.
In our workshops, we help people understand the keys to community that they have access to, to understand specifically what they need a sense of community to help them achieve, and, critically, what can they afford. From being a free by-product of location, community now becomes a business investment – but it's not one that we can afford to ignore.

Clearly, I have not written a word since ages now! I have not even bought a book for a long, long time (which is really not an issue, as even if I don't buy books for next couple of years, I would still have loads of books to read). Besides, I don't read 'Outlook' front to back, as I do 'People' as soon as I lay my hands on it. Yes, I am vain. I have not parted ways with atleast last 2 years' editions of 'Femina' and all of 'BBC Good Homes', 'Living etc' and 'Outlook'. And therefore, I have also lost all rights to crib about any of my husband's stuff not kept in place, because my books and magazines occupy every room, every corner. So, I have made peace.
I have not read much in last couple of months, but I have been able to catch loads of good movies on TV.
I happened to catch "Saaransh" a couple of days back. But since the power went off, I had to watch the last 40-50 minutes on YouTube. The one thought that cropped my mind while watching this was how Mahesh Bhatt used to make such great movies once! ('Arth' remains my all time favourite). Saaransh is a not a formula movie, just a good movie, which you would want to watch again and again.
Dead Man Walking
Susan Sarandon and Sean Penn deliver award-winning performances in this amazing movie. I was bowled over by both of them. They were too good. Dead Man Walking is a movie adaptation of a book of the same name. The movie tells the story of a special relationship developed by Sister Helen Prejean (Susan Sarandon) with Matthew Poncelet (Sean Penn) who is on a death row. Poncelet, alongwith his partner, is accused of raping a teenage girl, and gruesome killing of her and her boyfriend. He is awaiting his execution. Sister Helen agrees to help him in his final appeal to change his execution to life imprisonment. Read more about the movie here.
16 Blocks
I just happened to catch this movie out of the blue. On 14th February, every channel was playing romantic movies back to back, and there is a limit to watching mush. It gets boring, repetitive and unbearable after sometime. It is like reading Mills & Boons back to back for the entire day, and remember, I am not a teenager any more!
To begin with, I love Bruce Willis. In this movie, he plays this alcoholic detective, who is entrusted with escorting a fast-talking witness to the court. A few minutes into the movie, and you get to know that his colleagues, the city police force, wants this witness dead. I loved the fast-pace and intense action in this movie.
Love Story
I had never seen the movie adaptation of the overhyped book of the same name by Erich Segal. I think, by now, everyone knows the story of 'Love Story'. When I read it first (one of my really close friends gifted it to me), I could not understand what the hype was all about! It is one of those things, which everyone loves, and you don't so much, and you are convinced, perhaps there is something wrong with you only.
Anyways, I watched this movie on Valentine's Day weekend. If not anything else, I found it pretty endearing.
A Few Good Men
I have seen this movie before, but I love nothing more than a good court room drama. Tom Cruise makes it easy on the eyes too :-)
Even apart from him, the entire cast is fabulous and once the trial starts, the movie holds you well till the end.
Read more about the movie here.
My Sister's Keeper
The movie is actually based on an award-winning book of the same name. I have not read the book but after watching the movie, I look forward to reading it. The books are almost always better than their movie adaptations.
To briefly describe the story, it is about an 11 year old girl who files a case against her parents for medical emancipation. The couple has 3 children. When their eldest daughter, Kate, is of 2 years, they came to know that she suffers from leukemia. The youngest one, Anna was conceived by IVF to become a donor. Over the years, she has been a donor in treatments required for Kate. Now, she is expected to donate her kidney to her elder sister. Anna comes to know that the operation would be a major one, and on one side, it does not promise life for Kate, it also means that it is going to impact Anna's life in a big way. The movie takes off from there.
On one side, you feel that Sara, their mother, is not doing wrong because as she says she is looking at a larger picture of the entire family. She is obsessed with doing everything possible to save Kate. She believes that Anna is not able to appreciate the impact of her decision at her age. In her defense, to begin with, Anna was conceived to help her sister. But as I am saying this, it is also true that Anna is her own person. She cannot be 'used' to treat Kate, even if she was given birth for this purpose. It is not morally correct and unjustified.
I absolutely loved the movie. Though they have departed from the ending of the book, the movie is worth watching.
I don't even remember how many other good movies I have seen in last couple of days. But I was just thinking one of these days, when I was bowled over by one of the English movies, most of the hindi movie 'actors' are essentially non-actors. Most of them are overrated and without talent. I can't even name one favourite actor or actress. There aren't any. I would say I love performances. Tabu is the only actress who comes top-of-the-mind, especially in 'Namesake'. I liked her in 'Cheeni-Kum' as well. Why she needed to do 'Baat hamri Pakki' is what beats me! For that matter, Irrfan Khan was also superb in 'Namesake'.
I also watched 'Yeh Saali Zindagi' this weekend. I would post a review soon. For now, listen to this beautiful song from the movie.

As a Microsoft® Gold Certified Partner, we specialize in Microsoft .NET technologies and primarily develop with Visual Basic and SQL Server, and our development efforts are concentrated in two areas: Web-based and client/server based applications.
The explosion of the Internet and World Wide Web has literally changed how business is done. Organizations that would not have considered having a Web site several years ago are now proudly publishing sites that promote their products or services, share information, and allow their customers to place orders 24x7x365.
Our developers have expertise in creating custom content management solutions, setting up Web site security, deploying E-Commerce catalogs, and unique applications to suit any business need.
These days, databases are used throughout organizations to store, organize, analyze, and report on various sets of data. The ultimate purpose of any database is to help provide information that can solve business problems and assist in making better decisions.
Our developers have done just that for numerous clients over the years. If you have complex requirements and a Web-based application just will not work, then our programmers can create the necessary client/server application to run on your desktop. We also have a vast amount of experience with legacy systems, systems integration, and upgrades.
If you have a business problem that requires the power of a computer to solve, be it with a Web-based or client/server based application, our developers have probably already worked on something similar.

Intermediate Logic
Logic is the art of thinking in a straight line, of analyzing arguments and constructing proofs. In this modern logic curriculum, James Nance teaches the powerful tools of truth tables and truth trees to deconstruct propositional statements to determine validity, consistency, equivalence and more, then teaches how to derive conclusions from premises using the rules of formal proof. Building on this foundation, students then apply these tools to actual chains of reasoning, providing insights into a variety of subjects, from arguments in the Bible up to modern digital electronics.
We also offer live classes for Logic.Select options
Introductory Logic
Logic is the art of reasoning well. In this classic logic curriculum, the authors lay the proper foundation for reasoning from the truth of God, then train students in the crucial skills of defining terms, determining the truth of statements, discerning and constructing valid arguments, identifying informal fallacies, and more.
