This mantis-shaped creature is composed of a swarm of tiny earthen insects. Its companion, however, appears in the shape of a black beetle with glowing red antennae.
Hordes are frightening life forms native to the Elemental Plane of Earth. Each single horde entity comprises hundreds of separate, insect-like bodies united by a single mind. The bodies of a particular horde consciousness all took alike, and different hordes often feature their own distinct body types.
Sages speculate that a single horde hive mind can control a practically limitless number of creatures, perhaps up to a 10,000 Hit Dice total. Each horde hive mind has its own name, and all the swarm-bodies under the control of a single hive mind will respond to this name, which can cause confusion among outsiders.
The lawful hordes will sacrifice as many bodies as needed to reach a goal. A horde does not recognise any other form of life as worthy of respect - even another of its own kind. When a horde needs more room, it simply tries to take it, without regard for other creatures. Thus, most consider these creatures evil. Hordes often battle each other for living space.
All intelligent creatures of Earth, particularly the krysts (elementals of law), fear and hate hordes. Horrific tales abound of whole realms overrun by a single horde and stripped of all vegetation and native creatures, save for a few "herds" of humanoids kept as feeding stock.
The horde attacks other creatures whenever it finds such an action in its own best interest. Hordes do not consider any other life forms intelligent and have no compunctions against destroying others.
In battle, a horde typically tries to telekinetically hold a foe immobile and within the swarm, slowly consuming it. (Its modifier is +0 for telekinetic bull rush and trip checks, and +6 for disarm and grapple checks.) The collective is usually intelligent enough to recognise a true threat - those that attack it with area-effect spells - and target such opponents first.
Distraction (Ex): Any living creature that begins its turn with a horde swarm in its square must make a Fort save (DC 15) or be nauseated for 1 round. Spellcasting or concentrating on spells within the area of a swarm requires a Concentration check (DC 20 + spell level). Using skills that involve patience and concentration requires a DC 20 Concentration check. The save DC is Constitution-based.
Elemental Traits: Immune to poison, sleep effects, paralysis, and stunning; not subject to critical hits or flanking.
Hive Mind (Ex): Any horde swarm with at least 1 hit point per Hit Die (or 6 hit points, for a standard swarm) forms a hive mind, giving it an Intelligence of 13. When a horde is reduced below this hit point threshold, it becomes mindless. A single hive mind has been known to control up to four horde swarms.
A hive mind has no controlling body, such as the queen of an insect hive: the collective mind and life force occupy all component creatures evenly. However, the horde hive mind can control distinctive swarms only within an area 100 miles across. If a horde swarm is taken outside this range, it either develops a distinct hive mind, or becomes a mindless thing which dies within several days.
Spell-like Abilities: At will - detect thoughts (DC 12), telekinesis (DC 15). Caster level 6th. The save DCs are Charisma-based.
Swarm Traits: A horde swarm has a single pool of Hit Dice and hit points, a single initiative modifier, a single speed, and a single Armour Class. It makes saving throws as a single creature. It can occupy the same space as a creature of any size, since it crawls all over its prey, but remains a creature with a 10-foot space. Unlike other creatures with a 10-foot space, a swarm is shapeable. It can occupy any nine contiguous squares, and it can squeeze through any space large enough to contain one of its component creatures. As a swarm consisting of diminutive beings, the horde is immune to all weapon damage.

100m Usain Bolt beats Blake and Powell at the Racers Grand Prix 2016 (WATCH VIDEO)
(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});
The contest itself was worthy of an Olympic final with Bolt, Yohan Blake and Asafa Powell – three Jamaicans ranked in the top four on the world all-time list – coming together in a rare face-off. This was their fourth meeting, and once again it was the world record-holder who reigned supreme.
Bolt, who was drawn in lane four between Blake on his right and Powell to his left, got off to a disastrous start, rekindling visions of what happened in the semi-final at the IAAF World Championships Beijing 2015.
However, the six-time Olympic champion recovered quickly midway through the race and responded with his familiar unrelenting top-end speed from the 60-metre mark to power away to a scintillating victory. Bolt even had the audacity to ease down considerably in the final 10 metres.
"I'm happy I got a season best," said Bolt afterwards. "It wasn't a perfect race but the key thing is that I actually won and that's a good thing and I came out injury-free. It's all about execution sometimes and even if you don't get it you have to be strong, composed and just run through the line."
Nickel Ashmeade was a surprise runner-up, edging 2011 world champion Blake at the finish line with both registering identical season's best times of 9.94. Powell rounded out the top four with his first legal sub-10 this season, running 9.98, thereby making it the first time this season that four men have gone below 10 seconds in the same race

The N64 is probobly one of my favorite consoles. I got mine a long time ago, after my NES and I have played it so much, I had to replace two of my controllers because the analog stick wasn't working properly anymore. My system works in perfect condition. I have a couple games that don't work anymore but that is because they are second hand. I recommend anyone who has older console games and machines to take great care of them because they won't be around forever.
Paper Mario is a great game. They made Mario as thin as paper which was very clever and the story line is about Mario who wants to save Princess Peach, no surprise there. Mario encounters enemies which he must defeat using his own strength and the help of his star friends which he saves throughout the game. You also get to have a party, which means certain characters you encounter follow you on your journey to find princess peach. They all have abilities that you need to cross different parts of the game. It's really fun.
I have played this game for hours and hours and never got bored of it. I would recommend this game for all ages. It's really fun! The items he can find and use are awesome and I like the whole concept of using badges instead of upgrades to the character. You decide which badges he should have on and what powers he should be allowed to use.
10 out of 10 on the games scale.

Ukraine, EU to ratify Association Agreement simultaneously
Posted by seumasach on September 4, 2014
First, they tried to sign the AA with the legal government, then they tried to sign it with the illegal government which they had installed via a coup d'etat. Now they are trying to sign it with a government which has just lost a war against part of its own population, whose neo-nazi front line troops have sworn to overthrow it, whose national army has disintegrated and which will preside over a de facto partition of the the country if it continues to reject a negotiated peace settlement. All this so that the respective parties can save some face and continue to maintain the completely false story they have been putting out through their completely controlled media. The EU cannot get much lower than this and if it continues to exhibit this kind of political ineptitude, fruit of a political class completely in tow to Anglo-American interests, it will collapse. The problem in Europe is not so much the economy or the common currency but the crisis in direction and in the absence of an independent political leadership.
4th September, 2014
The European Parliament and Ukraine will ratify the country's Association Agreement (AA) simultaneously, during the 15-18 September session, EurActiv has learned. The signing of the AA led to the conflict currently under way between Ukraine and Russia.

I keep thinking about The Wall. It is made of concrete, stands about three and a half feet tall and is topped by about four feet of wire fence, which is wrapped in dense fabric. It's a very wall-ish wall. It runs down my street, but therein lies the problem: it does not run down the middle of my street. The Wall gives me two-fifths of the street and Upstate Medical Center three-fifths.
Let me draw you a picture. You are at the intersection of Crouse Avenue and Madison Street in the Syracuse University section of the City of Syracuse. On the southeast corner is McCarthy Manor, an eight-story redbrick apartment building that is subsidized by HUD. McCarthy Manor is home to 180 people, most of whom are disabled.
On the southwest corner of Crouse and Madison is the Institute for Human Performance. It is about five stories high and takes up the whole block. It is owned and operated by the State University of New York, doing business as Upstate Medical Center. How many people work in the building is unknowable because Security won't let you in.
However, what I do know from having been there four times on business is that the Institute for Human Performance (hereinafter referred to as The Institute) has a gymnasium. The gym is three or four stories high and includes a four-lane, quarter-mile track and about eighty exercise machines. In the exercise market, these machines cost between $200 and $2000 a piece, but in the medical market they would go higher—perhaps much higher—so a conservative estimate would be $100,000 worth of exercise machines.
But here's the thing: nobody's using the gym or the machines except a couple secretaries who walk the track on their lunch hour. I never saw more than three patients working in this cavernous hall of silent machines, so I went out and asked some questions. Consequently, I got a letter from a vice president at Upstate who said the gym had been built for a grant they never got.
I proposed that if Upstate really was committed to the health of the community then they should open the gym for community use. The vice president's response was that they couldn't do that because they'd be liable if anybody got hurt. Upstate Medical Center will not let the citizens who paid for the gym use the gym to get healthy because they might get hurt and then Upstate would have to pay for their treatment. Instead, Upstate is going to let marginally healthy people become unhealthy people, at which time Upstate will treat them because the treatment will be paid for by insurance.
Not only does Upstate not care for the people or their health, it also does not care for the machines: they've been sitting there rusting out for years. So now what The Institute is doing is expanding. Yup, instead of reconfiguring their cavernous, empty gymnasium, they are adding on to the building. And, yes, the Post-Standard knows The Institute is under-used and adding on, and they have chosen not to investigate. Is The Institute building another venue for another grant that they have not yet gotten? Maybe the investigators should come from the Inspector General's Office, not the newspaper.
That's the problem inside the building, but my problem is outside the building. The addition to The Institute will be in their parking lot, which is on the Crouse side of the building, which is across from McCarthy Manor where I live, hereinafter referred to as My Home. And two weeks ago, Upstate built The Wall down the street between The Institute and My Home but, as previously mentioned, they didn't take their half the street. They took three-fifths of the street, leaving me and mine with only two-fifths of the street. That is not neighborly but it's not actionable either, so what's the problem? (To be continued)

Spatial distribution in buildings through Genetic Algorithm, micro scale
Usually architects spend a lot of hours trying fit rooms and corridors into the building boundaries. There are many strategies to deal with this problem, i. e. define the corridors first and then fits the areas around them. Other alternative consist in trial and error method to getting closer step by step to the best result. No matter which strategies being used, some areas will be more important than others, and the architect will give priority to these spaces. For example in a house the living room and the dinner room will be more important than a storage or service bathroom. In this sense we can said that the living room has more "weight" than the bathroom.
This is a very complex problem to solve. The aim of this experiment consist in use a GA to spatially organize room, depending on their areas and their location within the building perimeter. The process is based on a Voronoi diagram that subdivides the space and the GA fits to set the different areas within the premises plan.
This type of problem is complex for at least two main issues:
1_ Is a problem weight because each area has different requirements in the room spaces. i.e. orientation, ventilation, square meter.
2_ Is a multi-objective optimization, because the complete list of rooms are in some way fighting each other for the best position, the best view, the best ventilation. You can't privilege one or a set of rooms with out to decrease others.
The problem is based on a Voronoi Diagram (VD). The area of each cell of the VD is used to fit the rooms. Usually VD are used to analyze space problems. There is a lot literature about VD.
Genetic Algorithm parameters
Objective Function: Difference.
Codification: Jagged array type, points and polygons area.
Type of problem: Multy-Objective
Number of generations: 50
Size of population: 20 ind.
Natural selection: Tournament selection, adjustable pressure in the selection.
Crossover: Uniform crossover.
Mutation: Multiply a coordinate by random value, 0.1%
Genetic Algorithm Structure:
chromosome Type
The chromosome of the individuals consist in the list of VD points. One thing to consider: If the red point is moved (see the picture) in order to fit his cell area, this will affect all the tangents cells area. So if for one side we are trying to achieve the fitness, In the other hand probably we can lost the obtained aptitude .
The chromosome is expressed as a jagged array, in the top list we have points and polygons (Voronoi cells)
Fitness Function
the fitness is expressed by the function in Rhinoscript. This function evaluate each of the cell area in the VD. If the difference of area minus objective area is less than the width the gen is awarded by 1 else with 0. but we are interesting in generate a fitness with big value so the final result is divided by 10 to obtain decimals and precision in the fitness values. Is not a good idea have integers in a fitness value, because we expect have all the flavours in the optimization process. Lucky for me I never got a 0 division!.
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19
Function fitnessEvaluation(individual, arrAreaGoal, arrPrecision) Dim i Dim count : count = 0 Dim area, resta Dim reward For i = 0 To UBound(individual) area = Rhino.CurveArea(individual(i)(1))(0) resta = Abs(area - arrAreaGoal(i)) If(resta <= arrPrecision(i)) Then reward = arrPrecision(i) Else reward = 1 End If count = (count + resta) / reward Next fitnessEvaluation = 10/count End Function
Natural Selection
tournament selection, with a pressure = 8. I tried the roulette wheel before but the results do not persuade me. So I decide to wrote a tournament selection and the results were much better. With tournament selection is possible to control the pressure during the optimization. this is very useful when de difference of the individuals is minimum. The algorithm operate selecting a group of individuals into the population. The individual with the highest fitness won the competition and it is selected for the next generation (crossover and mutation).
Crossover type
For this GA I implemented two different crossover algorithms: Single point and uniform. the best results were obtained with the single point crossover.
offSpring = SinglePtCrossOver(cleanRW(indexDad),cleanRW(indexMom))
offspring = UniformCrossOver(cleanRW(indexDad),cleanRW(indexMom))
The mutation consist in move one point in the chromosome in a random direction. The displacement must be really small because in this type of exercise is really important don not loose the data that came from the parents.
The table show in the first column the real area of the VD, second column is the objective area, third column: the width and fourth column the final area after the optimization. The white cells means that the GA was no able to fit this areas into the limits.
The plans layout before and after the optimization.

In a Thursday op-ed in the New York Times, Democratic Leader Harry Reid of Nevada wrote ruefully on the occasion of his retirement, addressing what many liberals have described as the "post-truth" world. After all, how else could they have lost the 2016 election?
"Much of the responsibility for separating what is real and what is fake," Reid solemnly asserted, "will fall on Democrats."
What claptrap! And how ironic! For Reid will be best remembered not for his parliamentary skill, not for any bill he sponsored, not even for the controversial way in which he changed the rules of the Senate. Rather, he will be remembered for the amoral dishonesty of a hoax he played on the Senate floor, for which he remains completely unrepentant to this day. This is fitting, because there is no incident in Reid's career that better exemplifies the cynical leadership he brought to his party as its Senate leader.
Cloaked in legislative immunity, Reid told the Senate and the nation that he had it on good authority that Mitt Romney, then running against President Obama, had not any paid federal taxes in a decade. He described his source as an investor in Bain Capital, where Romney had worked.
This was a flat out lie, and has been proven false. But not only has Reid not apologized. He is proud of himself. When CNN's Dana Bash asked him about it a year ago, he replied glibly, "Romney didn't win, did he?"
More recently, Reid said he's especially proud that he was willing to commit this slander personally when everyone else around him had good enough judgment (or at least enough shame) not to do so.
"It's one of the best things I've ever done," he told the Washington Post. "I tried to get somebody else to do it. I tried to get somebody in the Obama 'reelect,' I tried to get one of the senators, I tried to get one of the outside groups, but nobody would do it. So I did it."
In the same interview, Reid said that if there was a line in political warfare that he would not cross, he hadn't found it yet. Well, that's candid, if nothing else.
This is Reid's morality: Win, at any cost, by any means necessary. It's a toxic worldview, and his years as a Senate leader have poisoned the institution he professes to love.
It would take too much space to describe here all his usurpations (such as "filling the tree") to demolish the traditions and practices, such as open debate and amendment processes. His actions pushed Republicans to filibuster in protest, and the Senate's comity gradually broke down. This led to Reid's most famous contribution to Senate procedure in 2013, when he demolished Senate precedent with the so-called "nuclear option."
With a simple majority vote and over strenuous objections from members of both parties, Reid torched decades of Senate precedent by taking away the Senate minority's ability to block most presidential nominations.
Reid had strenuously objected when Republicans considered doing the same thing a decade earlier to move President George W. Bush's judicial nominations. "You should not be able to come in here and change willy-nilly a rule of the Senate," he said. "It will change this body forever. We will be an extension of the House of Representatives, where a simple majority there can determine everything." Three years after that crisis, Reid called the threats of the nuclear option "a black chapter in the history of the Senate," and added, "I hope we never ever get to that again because I really do believe it will ruin our country."
But he didn't believe what he was saying. Reid's perspective changed dramatically after a Democratic president was elected and had the exact same trouble in the Senate. He "went nuclear" to help Obama, but history will record that in invoking the nuclear option, he actually freed the hand of President-elect Trump to appoint anyone he wanted to any executive branch position and to most federal judgeships, no matter how objectionable they were to Democrats.
Reid's largest legislative accomplishment is probably ushering Obamacare to passage. In one sense, this almost cost him his own Senate seat in 2010. In a very concrete way, though, passing Obamacare helped Reid win re-election, because he cut an apparent quid pro quo deal with drug lobby.
When the drug industry's trade group (the Pharmaceutical Research and Manufacturers of America) arranged with Democrats to support the Senate healthcare bill in exchange for favorable provisions, the drug lobby explicitly promised to run ads on Reid's behalf in Nevada.
PhRMA followed through, and so did Reid. The bill he shepherded through the Senate trebled PhRMA's customer base through subsidies and by placing new demands on every member of the public. It placed no serious demands on drugmakers, nor did it upset the favorable treatment they were receiving under existing law, such as the ban on drug re-importation. The drug industry and its lobbyists subsequently showered him and the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee with donations.
This was nothing new for Reid, who had previously used his power in the Senate to craft legislation for major donors. One of those donors, Harvey Whittemore, was released from prison in May after serving a sentence for illegally reimbursing straw-man donors who gave money to Reid. Reid was never implicated in the crime, but he was grateful for the donations from this man, who had also hired one of his sons as his lawyer.
Reid drafted a law to benefit Whittemore, which moved a federal electrical power corridor (where development would have been forbidden) away from land that Whittemore wanted to develop. Reid's bill moved the corridor instead onto federal land set aside for "wilderness study."
These are but a few examples of Reid's amoral and disgraceful tenure. We could bring up other things, as when he called Obama's predecessor a "loser" and a "liar." We could mention the wealth he amassed in his decades of "public service", through investments and deals that again and again seemed to overlap with his activity as a legislator.
But what really makes Reid stand apart is his nihilistic pursuit of victory at all costs, with no regard for anyone else's good name, and certainly none for his own.
The Senate and political Washington are worse for Reid's service. We'll be ready to regret his departure from Capitol Hill when the nation no longer has reason to regret that he ever arrived there.

List of Jack's Best 2006
Here's this years picks that clicked. This year I'm gonna focus on songs rather than albums. Don't know, may have done that last year too, for that matter. As we've said, the industry is moving back to this idea of the single. And it is probably what people want, and what the artists are capable of. I don't mind paying 99 cents to see if there is a there there, as for example, with JJ Cale and Eric Clapton, or Cat Ibraham Stevens or the Holy Modal Rounders meet Godzilla.
But before I babble on too much … here is the List of Jack's Best 2006.
The Levee's Gonna Break - Bob Dylan, from Modern Times
Till I Gain Control Again - Van Morrison, from Pay the Devil
That Kind of Fool – Jerry Lee Lewis (duet with Keith Richards), from Last Man Standing
Maimed Happiness – The New York Dolls, from One Day it Will Please Us to Remember Even This
This Is Us – Mark Knopfler and Emmy Lou Harris
Buried Alive in the Blues – Chicago Blues Reunion, from Buried Alive in the Blues
But different this year is a total lack of effort to reach out to different types of music These are all just about golden rockin 60s oldies people. High geezer factor. Also a pretty white bunch. And mostly guys. This is due to some budget cutbacks at MoonTravellerHerald. But understand, by saving money on CDs, we are able to keep a full staff, no layoffs, and bring the news you need regularly to you good people out there like you expect. Did just get a great Christmas present from Cecelia: The 2006 release of King of the Hawaiian Steel Guitar Vol. 1 by Sol Hoopii [1927 – 1936]. Just getting into that. She got it at the Tower Records fire sale.
Kwitcherbellyachin .. okay.
I hear and buy and lease and burn plenty of stuff from many music types, don't get me wrong. Finding stuff that is specifically from 2006 is actually the mitigating factor.. And one of the above numbers actually isn't truly from 2006. The devil made me add it. Too, I've tried in the past to balance up music and downer music. Not this time.
I like to think the previous incarnations of this project are worth a look see. So the addresses for these cavalcades are offered here. My top picks for 2005 - ProudTruth Awards for Music of 2003 - Music Faves of Ought Two
The Levee's Gonna Break – Bob Dylan, from Modern Times.
Eagerly awaited and no let down the CD. So what's your favorite number? Mine is The Levee's Gonna Break. It's got a good Choctaw beat, and you can dance to it. I remember this: AOL did a videocast of the New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Festival, put together with grit and groceries in the Spring after Hurricane Katrina. And Dylan was a headliner. And there he was doing "The Levee's Gonna Break" which I at the time took to be Flash on the Levee but wondered because it was upbeat. The camera was set back in the jiggy grunge audience, and a guy in white shirt and his bohemian babe in sun skirt were doing the second line two step. Which all seems terribly apropos of art's ability to change things. In my opinion. Doom, determination, blues, beat. This song has got it.."Some people on the road carrying everything they own." The indelible image now obscured in public consciousness by news of Lindsay Lohan and Miss Teen USA. I view the album as one in a series of three.

Till I Gain Control Again - Van Morrison, from Pay the Devil.
Van the Man has gotten a bit too good at rewriting other songs [say from New Orleans era, Tin Pan Alley, or Sam Cooke oeuvre ] with his own semipoetic twist and oddball delivery. He's also taken part in too many themed CDs [tribute to jazz, tribute to skiffle, etc.] and this coupled with his limited capacity for humor has put him in the category of old fart. So you don't expect too much from his country send up call Pay the Devil, right? Ok he's got you. The humor is bubbling. The performances are just slightly over the top, and the authors largely are not Van! Then you hear him sing - over a great combo - "Darling, I only hope that you will hold me now, until I gain control again." He takes on Rodney Crowell's Till I Gain Control and knifes it. This is the number that got me off my butt to buy a CD that is a virtually complete success. Till I Gain Control is about a cat trying to get it together, whose plaint is understated yet desperate.
That Kind of Fool – Jerry Lee Lewis (duet with Keith Richards), from Las Man Standing.
Many years now Jerry Lee Lewis was in a holding pattern. Not heard from. But I heard tell that hours after his most recent divorce became final, he was in the air to gigging in Europe. This record is deeper than his last – more cuts. It is one of those duet things. The selection I pick is That Kind of Fool. He sings this country beer bar ballad with Keith Richards whose singing, well, it just keeps improving. "Look at that fool, one drink and he goes home .." In this story Jerry is painting a picture of a bar lounge lizard ne'er-do-well observing an occasional imbiber paying his tab. Jerry's whole life passes in front of him. At the trailer, you can here an energetic Englishman [Richards] enthuse: "Got the feeling Jerry!"
Maimed Happiness – The New York Dolls, from One Day it Will Please Us to Remember Even This.
This was impulse buy. Jake and I were down in old New York. Had seen the Doll posters - they'd [all two of them original] just put out their first record in over 30 years. And there it was on sale, at Virgin near 14th St, and, anyway, they'd been king of the downtown when I was there way back. Seemed like a theme to go with. Included a DVD [which had some interesting musician interplay - always fascinating, that - including discussion of how not to chord like the Rolling Stones - beside guitar choice, it is a matter of pick strum effect ]. There was a really tremendous this is the next big band thing going on with the Dolls in their time and place - and many sad end results that now give their music even greater depth. David Johanssen's lyrics and performance on Maimed Happiness show a world-weary Doll, a ground down Doll. To the tune of a doo-wop slow dance waltz. At the end of all the parties, hope and hype: dread. ''Been to the doctor, not a lot he can do. Says: 'You got the human condition, son I feel sorry for you.''' A mediation on sorrowful joy. Magic that disappears.

Buried Alive in the Blues – Chicago Blues Reunion, from Buried Alive in the Blues.
Once John Sinclair told me someone asked him to take part in something or review it..it was called "Chasing the Blues." And he said to me: "Have you ever heard something so stupid?" Well I kind of looked at him, dumbly. So he sayd "You run from the blues, you don't chase it." Well blues is about living..for sure..so being buried alive in it is particularly poignant. Nick Gravenites has been carrying this song for years, but he really hit it with the Chicago Blues Reunion group at the end of last year. We saw the band and him do it in Feb in S.F. Since then, it has been on my CD rondelle on many a Friday morning - as I shuffled off to Daily Breadland."Its sunday morning everybody's in bed...this big dumb brickwall ain't heard a word I said. I'm buried alive in the blues." It is a blues march, driven by Harvy Mandel's guitar..including a transcendent [3-bar?] lead exercise in guitar dramatics.

Blues Reunion 2/2006
Also noted
This Is Us – Mark Knopfler and Emmy Lou Harris
Power chords, high mandolins, cool attitude. Known life. Kodaks moments. Pretty simple stuff sufficed with high art. This is us. The straight dire drone. You and me making history. Sad to say, I have had enough of Emmy Lou's heavenly nose borne intonations at this point. But she is the greatest long time running she singer. And she's back with this one…just like all the guys above back from obscura of varieties. The piece with Knobfler dopler a tad too laconic maybe. The drummer don't care. It's the snare head hit of the year. Crossed many playlists. And I got this as iPod thing for 99 cents .. lived to see it.. no idea about the album or the DVD… got it just like I usta get some of those old 45s at Woolworths, cept there was a lotta techno-doo-doo on the way.
Further also noted, great songs on Film Soundtracks in 2006:
Sister Ray, Velvet Underground – "Brick"
Sweet Dreams, Roy Buchanan – "The Departed"
Hardcore Troubadour, Steve Earle – "Talledega Nights"

Chloe Moretz will join Seth Rogen, Rose Byrne and Zac Efron for Neighbors 2
Earlier this year it was announced that Seth Rogen, Zac Efron and Rose Byrne would be returning in a sequel to NEIGHBORS, because you can't just make one film that grosses over $250 million on a $20 million budget and walk away! Nicholas Stoller is also returning to direct a script from NEIGHBORS scribes Andrew J. Cohen and Brendan O'Brien. The plot synopsis for NEIGHBORS 2 will focus on a sorority that movies in next door to the couple. Rogen and Byrne then decide to enlist their former nemeses from the fraternity to help battle the raucous sisters. Judging from this latest casting, I'd say the film has their first sorority sister; Chloe Moretz.
It hasn't been stated who Ms. Moretz will be playing in NEIGHBORS 2, although KICK-ASS 2 showed us that Moretz can go the way of MEAN GIRLS and pull it off pretty efficiently. There's been no other plot details released for the follow-up, although given the sorority angle I'd imagine we can expect some of the same jokes from the first with a female twist. NEIGHBORS was not one of my favorite Rogen comedies, so maybe they'll improve upon the formula from the first.
NEIGHBORS 2 will be released in theaters on May 13, 2016.

Renovations of hotels and resorts are only successful when all the parties involved are mindful of and plan for the unique challenges they (almost always) pose. Some common challenges could be completing a renovation in an operating hotel, or integrating today's standards in an older building, working within a short down period, or efficiently dealing

At its best, entertainment is going to be a subjective thing that can't win for everyone, while at worst, a particular game just becomes a random symbol for petty tribal behavior.
Because of the nature of Moore's law, anything that an extremely clever graphics programmer can do at one point can be replicated by a merely competent programmer some number of years later.
Everybody's saturated with the marketing hype of next-generation consoles. They are wonderful, but the truth is that they are as powerful as a high end PC is right now.
Focus is a matter of deciding what things you're not going to do.
Focused, hard work is the real key to success. Keep your eyes on the goal, and just keep taking the next step towards completing it. If you aren't sure which way to do something, do it both ways and see which works better.
I'd rather have a search engine or a compiler on a deserted island than a game.
It's nice to have a game that sells a million copies.
Low-level programming is good for the programmer's soul.
Programming is not a zero-sum game. Teaching something to a fellow programmer doesn't take it away from you. I'm happy to share what I can, because I'm in it for the love of programming.
Rocket science has been mythologized all out of proportion to its true difficulty.
Story in a game is like a story in a porn movie. It's expected to be there, but it's not that important.
The cost of adding a feature isn't just the time it takes to code it. The cost also includes the addition of an obstacle to future expansion. The trick is to pick the features that don't fight each other.
The speed of light sucks.
The Xbox 360 is the first console that I've ever worked with that actually has development tools that are better for games than what we've had on PC.


text: Sarah contacted us about a month or so ago, inquiring about maternity photos. We were beyond excited to be able to photograph them, having last seen her with barely a belly bump. Sarah is the sister of Leslie, whose wedding we photographed last year. The entire way up to Hoboken (which was quite the fun trip!) my friend and I talked about how easy this family is to photograph – how natural they are in front of the camera. Let me tell you, having models who photograph so well take a HUGE part of the work out of a photoshoot! and these two… or, three ; ) did not disappoint. Sarah is due SO soon, and we cannot wait to meet sweet Justice Daniel.

Santana, Willis comebacks are worth rooting for
Whether you're into Dodger Blue, the Tomahawk Chop or anybody who plays his home games near a Green Monster, you can join the enlightened by cheering like crazy for Johan Santana and Dontrelle Willis.
You remember those guys. If not, they were pitching sensations flirting with Cooperstown, but they fell miles (and victories) shy of its city limits due to aches and pains. Now, they wish to become relevant again on a Major League mound, not only for themselves, but for those who realize there isn't anything more splendid in sports than a comeback story in baseball.
Whether you're into Dodger Blue, the Tomahawk Chop or anybody who plays his home games near a Green Monster, you can join the enlightened by cheering like crazy for Johan Santana and Dontrelle Willis.
You remember those guys. If not, they were pitching sensations flirting with Cooperstown, but they fell miles (and victories) shy of its city limits due to aches and pains. Now, they wish to become relevant again on a Major League mound, not only for themselves, but for those who realize there isn't anything more splendid in sports than a comeback story in baseball.
Remember Tony Conigliaro? One year, he nearly lost his eye after a fastball to the face. The next, he had the best hitting season of his career. Mike Lowell and Eric Davis prospered for years after surviving cancer scares.
Speaking of cancer, doctors found a tumor in Dave Dravecky's left arm, but he recovered to thrill a nation with a brief return to the mound. Jon Lester was more fortunate than that. After he was diagnosed with lymphoma in 2006, he pitched a no-hitter two years later. He later helped the Red Sox win two World Series championships, and he made his third trip to the All-Star Game last season along the way to signing with the Cubs for megabucks.
We also can't forget Tommy John, since he is among the poster children in sports history for never giving up. Once, he damaged the ulnar collateral ligament in his left pitching elbow, underwent an unprecedented surgery to have it replaced and climbed Major League mounds with authority for the next 15 seasons. He had the procedure named after him, and it has resurrected more than few pitching careers since.
You've probably noticed a bunch of pitchers in these comeback stories -- which brings us back to Santana and Willis.
Cheer for them ... please.
Santana is 36 and hasn't thrown a Major League pitch in three years. Willis is 33, and he hasn't done so since 2011. They both were huge deals during the earlier part of their careers. Then the disabled list became their companion. Through it all, they both sought to regain their magic on the mound with teams other than their original one. It's just that they both slide into that baseball purgatory where you aren't quite retired but you remain a ways from wearing big-time cleats again for battle.
Now, they've both returned as pitching warriors.
Well, almost.
Actually, we don't know, but we can hope.
Santana was so dominant for much of his eight years with the Twins through 2007 that he forced another Major League pitcher to change his name. Literally. The other Johan Santana was a rising prospect in the Angels farm system, but when he determined the Twins guy was becoming the Johan Santana, he changed his first name to "Ervin."
Video: MLB Now on Johan Santana's comeback and TJ surgery
There was 2004, for instance. The Twins' Johan Santana went 13-0 during the second half, and that included 10 straight games in which he allowed four or fewer hits. Two years later, he led the Major Leagues in ERA and in strikeouts, and he tied Chien-Ming Wang for the baseball high in victories with 19. He captured two Cy Young Awards by the time he was 28. In the minds of many, this Santana was on the verge of several more.
Those other Cy Young Awards never came. In fact, after Santana was traded to the Mets in 2008 to become their designated savior, he dropped from pretty great to pretty good for the next three seasons. He eventually missed all of the '11 season due to shoulder issues. But he recovered well enough the following year to throw the first no-hitter in Mets history. That joy didn't last long for Santana, because it was replaced by misery, stretching from his lower back to his pitching shoulder to even his feet.
The Mets eventually bought out Santana's contract after the 2013 season, and he was signed last June by the Orioles for extended spring training. He tore his Achilles tendon. That's why he has spent that last few weeks in the Venezuelan Winter League with hopes of returning to the Major Leagues. He was making progress until he suffered a sore shoulder last week.
Santana vows to keep pitching. The same goes for Willis, among baseball's top feel-good stories of recent decades.
Willis came out of nowhere for the Marlins in 2003 as a young pitcher with a goofy throwing motion and an electric personality only to win the NL Rookie of the Year Award. He even had a nickname (D-Train), and you know how baseball is in love with nicknames. In 2005, he went 22-10 to finish second in NL Cy Young Award voting, but he did capture Warren Spahn Award honors as the best left-handed pitcher in the league.
Video: NYM@FLA: Willis hurls a one-hitter against the Mets
Back then, Willis' future looked as bright as that of Santana, but along came his trade to the Tigers in 2007 with Miguel Cabrera. While Cabrera grew in stature, Willis went from the starting rotation to the bullpen to the Minor Leagues. He couldn't control his pitches. Mostly, he couldn't get anybody out, and he was diagnosed with anxiety issues.
There also were Willis' physical issues after he was traded by the Tigers in June 2010 to the D-backs to begin his swing through much of the Major, Minor and Independent leagues. Giants (twice). Reds. Phillies. Orioles, Cubs. Angels. Then came this week, when the Brewers signed Willis to a Minor League contract, with an invite to their spring camp.
Good for Willis and good for Santana, who also wishes to reach a Major League camp. And, if they both become their glorious pitching selves of a decade or so ago -- good for everybody.

After Hours: TIME at We The Curious on Thursday 19th April 2018Posted on: 15 Apr 2018
As the old Latin phrase sagaciously proclaims: Tempus fugit. And how pertinent an epithet it is too. It seems only a week ago we were popping up the tinsel and chomping on the festive sprouts - and yet here were are, already in April. Reflect, then, on the passing of time in the inimitable, thought-provokingly scientific fashion only We The Curious can offer for its After Hours: TIME event on Thursday 19th April 2018.
With the clock ticking exponentially away and time seemingly slipping through our fingers, there will be an entertaining menagerie of immersive, hands-on activities and fun and games at the venue. Expect to be challenged, enlightened, educated and amazed in equal measure.
There will also be plenty of music providing the soundtrack for the evening, as well as bars with a thirst-quenching cornucopia of libations and loads of delicious food to satisfy those rumbling tummies. You'll also have the chance to see their latest seasonal stargazing show, Spring Stargazing, in the 3D Planetarium (for the rather pocket-friendly £3 per seat).
With so much fun and entertainment on offer for the night, the time will literally fly by.
We The Curious was formerly known as At-Bristol Science Centre, and is one of Bristol's most famous and popular family attractions situated on Bristol's scenic harbourside.

Stress Free Party Entertainment Ideas this Christmas
Christmas is the most awaited event of the year, especially for office employees. What else can you ask from a season that has everything you want like several days paid vacation, monetary bonus, 13th month pay and most of all, parties. However, we can't deny the fact that preparing for the event can be stressful too. And the least that you want to happen is to be rewarded for your effort as you do your best for your party's preparation. And though no one can really perfect this task, at least you want everyone to enjoy and make the event momentous.
"Office party can turn into a disgrace and worse is making the event a disaster after all you have done", Dr. Elizabeth Lombardo said. "And some people dwell so much on their negative thoughts, hindering them from enjoying the event", she added.
Preparing for an office holiday party can be such a stressor, especially during Christmas. It just presents a unique stressor that you don't feel at other ordinary events. It can be difficult to draw the lines and set boundaries as you try to analyze what's appropriate. This is especially true as you try to decide how to present yourself in an out of office setting to people whom you commonly see to be behind their desks. If you feel this way then this is what Dr. Lombardo has to say; "majority of people are too busy thinking of themselves to have time to think about you". She meant that you need not be hard on yourself. After all, no one is really scrutinizing your work, only you.
There's no need to fret thinking for the best Party Entertainment Ideas since there are actually a lot you can choose from. Remember that parties are not extensions of your office so it's the best time where you can all be yourself, even your boss can be your buddy at this time. What matters most is to find unique ways for everyone to enjoy.
Instead of just a formal drinking and speech event, why not turn your party to something more fun like including fire shows in your program or inviting professional jugglers who will make everyone's jaw hit the floor for amazement. This can be great especially if the entire family is invited, to the party, particularly the kids.
Parties don't need to be stressful and everyone has the right to enjoy. Forget about all your worries and treat yourself this Christmas season by embracing all opportunities to enjoy.

Running MS Exchange 2010 on a Windows Server 2008 R2 OS rebooted last night after hours now endusers can't email to public folders.
I have made sure that public folders are connected to the correct server and are mail enabled.
Need help on this ASAP!
Sounds like a service didn't start on reboot. I would check all the necessary Exchange services are running and set to automatic. Also check the event log for any errors.

" It's a great life...If you don't weaken was always the words my Mama said as she got older!!
It's an awful lot stricter with the driving test, now my friend...Olivia just said " What will be, will be"... and if I don't pass I'm not good enough to be on the road yet...Not at all nervous..A Virgo, she is like you! haha..
Oh how brilliant! Tell Olivia congratulations from me ... there'll be no stopping her now! Lucky you, wonder what the third thing will be?ReplyDelete
Love Claire xx
Thank you, Mrs Thriftwood, I sure will xReplyDelete
Congratulations to your daughter, and also on your winning the lottery!ReplyDelete
You always sound such a happy soul Maria and I love the way you spin your lovely yarns. They have a way of making you feel as if you are wrapped up safely in a little coccoon where nothing and noone can hurt you.
Full moon on thursday making us eat and drink more? I am already struggling to cut down after the excesses of christmas!!
Congratulations to Olivia for passing her driving test and also to you for winning the lottery. Hope something else good heads your way this week!ReplyDelete

I can tell from your words Maria that you know how to fly ....
Full Moon Blessings

I loved hearing all your stories! I'm glad we can dream right along with you!ReplyDelete
My father always used to say that if you don't have your dreams then there is no point to life. I think that he was quite right. I've always been a dreamer too like you. I could spend hours just sitting looking out of a window but not really be there but miles away doing anything that my heart desires. my nighttime dreams are really vivid too and really exciting but unfortunately reality always pops up somewhere!!ReplyDelete
Rosie xx
That's not luck - that's a very clever girl you have!ReplyDelete
I never learned to drive either - I'm sure if I did drive I'd make others cross as I pootered along the motorway at 40 MPH. Life is too good to rush!
Nothing wrong with daydreams except of course when you're driving! Well done to your daughter, great achievement :) xReplyDelete
Oh yes, Olivia has wings now, and you will have to get your wings on to keep up with her! BRAVO FOR HER! And how lovely is your space here, always so inviting dear Maria!ReplyDelete
Congratulations to Olivia and to you Maria too on your lottery win and how kind of you to donate your winnings to your chosen charity,ReplyDelete
Hope you're having a wonderful week!

Congratulations to Olivia! Lovely to win the lottery too & even lovlier of you to donate the winnings to charity xReplyDelete
You have a great daughter Maria, and I didn't know she has a similar name with mine! And I love your china and this wonderful vase on the last photo! Wish you always be able to donate Maria!ReplyDelete
A big warm hug from me!
A lovely post as always! The gift of dreaming is a good one to have, never stop. Congrats to Olivia and well done you with your lottery one. Good things come in threes so look out for something else exciting soon :-)ReplyDelete
Have a happy rest of the week,

Congratulations to Olivia for passing her driving test and lucky you for winning the 25 pounds! I won 5 euro's over Christmas :-) The beginning of a fortune!!
Happy weekend ahead!

What a lovely week, congratulations to Miss Oliva, and well done on winning the lottery! I was going to ask what you were going to spend your winnings on – but I found the answer at the end of the post. I'm sure even nicer things are on the way for you Maria, just keep dreaming and never plant those feet!ReplyDelete
Congratulations to your sweet daughter on passing her driving test, Maria!ReplyDelete
I know pretty much what you mean about drifting off when surrounded by others. I recall in assembly at school being able to disconnect myself from my body, if you see what I mean, and drifting off to goodness knows where. I'd find it a little disconcerting at times, I must say!
Happy weekend to you, dear Maria.
Hello dear Maria,ReplyDelete
Congratulations to your lovely Olivia on passing her driving test :)
What a wonderful Idea the wish box is, an Idea I may have to borrow.
I love that you could escape any time you wished as a child, I can think of nothing I would have loveld more. I still dream of escaping now at times.
A wonderful gesture, giving your winnings to charity, more evidence of your kind-hearted nature.
I'm sending you hugs and love on this coldest of weekends.
Stay warm my dear xx
I love the names of the full moons. I collect them in a book. They are so beautiful to me. I m glad my husband likes to drive because I do not enjoy it at all. This is a lovely post very interesting about your passed down ability! Have a wonderful week.ReplyDelete
Lovely post Maria ...so pleased for Olivia....I know what you mean about dreaming it's a wonderful ability ! And you know I just LOVE the full moon !ReplyDelete
Keep on dreaming....Gail x
Congratulations to Olivia!! And how wonderful of you to give your winnings away to charity. You have a huge heart :)ReplyDelete
Learning to drive is such a great thing to do, especially if you do it young. I had to learn in London and it was terrifying, I'm still a wimpy driver.... I enjoyed hearing about your mystical dreams, it always comes across in your blog....ReplyDelete
Dear MariaReplyDelete
I breathe out and relax when I visit your blog....there is music to greet me and I know you are going to talk about warm,mystical things....perhaps there is a little magic in this blog of yours :-) .....I'm late visiting again but I'm here.
Congratulations to Olivia on passing her test !
I drive because I have to and I don't really enjoy it. I am ok if I have the music on. I totally agree though learning to drive is an essential part of any young person's education.
I so understand when you mention drifting off to your dream world. Thanks to my dream world I got through an unpleasant childhood. I'm Gemini anyhow and Geminis are mostly dreamers!
Ohhh! winning on the lottery fab...lucky you!!!
keep well
Amanda :-)
You are such a magical person...... All too often I think we are told to stifle those wonderful gifts as children...... I had a very strong and believable imagination as a child and heard voices....... Having always been told it was nonsense I learnt to block them out but I so è times wonder if there was something more to it..... keep flying away it's a wonderful gift xReplyDelete

How to Get a Smokey Eyes. There's no sign the smokey eye pattern is kicking the bucket. Here we demonstrate to you orderly directions on the most proficient method to get the ideal smokey eye.
Also Check Out Latest Trends Shaping the Face of Beauty in 2018
Here's How:
Prep the cover:
The way to keeping eye-shadow from liquefying into your eyelid wrinkle as the day goes on is to kept eyelids without oil. To do this begin with an eye-shadow base (likewise called "groundwork"). Just swipe the groundwork over the eye and let it dry before you proceed to the following step;
Apply eyeliner:
In case you're going for an average dark, cocoa or dim smoky eye, apply liner in one of those hues over the upper lash line, attracting line thicker the center of eye. In case you're settling on a gem conditioned eye (violet makes a beautiful smokey eye), line eyes with a purple, blue or dark green liner.
Mix in shading on base lashes:
For shading on the last (a key smokey eye look) you'll need to utilize an eyeliner pencil in light of the fact that they're most straightforward to smear. When the line is drawn, run your finger over it to smirch the line. You can likewise apply a touch of shadow to get full smear impact.
Apply light base shading Again:
The way to a smokey eye is matching a lighter base with the darker tint. I lean toward a pleasant cream shade for my base. Clear a light, shimmery shadow over the tops to your browbone. My most loved shading is cat.
Mix in darker shading, yet keep dull shading underneath the wrinkle:
Since you have the base and eyeliner on, it's a great opportunity to get the smokey impact. You require a darker eye-shadow shade. Utilizing an eye-shadow brush, mix in shading beginning at your lash line, mixing up. Make a point to mix shading into the lash line so the eye liner vanishes. Stop profound shading at wrinkle. The key here is to mix, mix, mix.
Double check your work:
Make beyond any doubt eyes match and mix shading with a Q-tip if need be.
10 Easy Makeup Tips That Will Simplify Your Life
Complete with a few layers of mascara:
You'll need to apply a couple layers of mascara so lashes are thick and dim. In the event that you don't have actually since quite a while ago, twisted lashes, twist them with a lash styler first. See my rundown of best mascaras in the event that you don't have one you adore.
Keep in mind to keep lips naked. At the point when applying solid cosmetics (like smokey eyes or red lips) put the attention on either eyes or lips, never both. (Think Angelina Jolie: She either plays up her gigantic eyes or her tremendous lips, never both. On the off chance that she did, she'd resemble a jokester).
For a touch of fun, attempt a blue or purple mascara. It will make blue eyes "pop."
Liner doesn't need to come in pencil structure. Cosmetics specialists know eyeshadows make some of the best eyeliners. To do this take an eyeliner brush, wet it, then spot wet brush into the dim shadow. This considers a profound, exact line. You can likewise utilize the dim shadows without wetting brush first. In any case, eyeliner is fundamental for smoky eye.
This season go gem conditioned (blue is awesome for you blue-looked at young ladies) and keep your eyes smoky yet avoid dull tans and dark. Rather, go for a profound purple, a gold-chestnut or any of the numerous lively hues in this year.
What You Need:
Eye groundwork (you needn't bother with it, yet it's awesome for keeping shadow set up)
2 Shadows: One light, one darker
- Eyeliner
- Cosmetics brushes
- Mascara
