October's 2nd-most anticipated event
Finally, some news I can get excited about...
R.E.M. will release their thirteenth album in October, just before the presidential election. And Michael Stipe wouldn't have it any other way.
"For better or worse, the current state of the world has had a profound impact on the way I'm writing," says the singer, who is in the midst of finishing up the record in Miami with guitarist Peter Buck and bassist Mike Mills. "But this isn't a downer of a record. Even the most depressing R.E.M. song is going to have a glimmer of hope in it. That's just me, I can't help myself." ...
"At this time, as an American, I feel like the angriest pacifist in the world, and I don't think I'm alone in that," says Stipe.
But who would have expected that they were so angry that they'd recruit the drummer from Ministry?
Anticipated tracks for the new album include:
"Final Straw," "I'm Gonna DJ," "On the Fly," "The Outsiders," "Leaving New York," "Wanderlust," "Electron Blue," "Aftermath," and "Magnetic North."
And of course, if anyone comes across MP3s before the album's release, I would be most greatful if you'd share.
* In case you were wondering, October's most anticipated event is my brother's wedding.

We really liked how you put a lot of detail into your blog post. The pictures were a great tool to show the work the students did. One idea to help you next time is to focus on the object by using a solid background. Great job!
I loved the bridge video! I am so excited to be doing this now in science!
Great job with your post. I liked that you started with some dialogue. The video was great too, but, the backround is so busy that you can hardly focus on the bridge. Congratulations, on your first blog post.
You did a great job on the bridges video….I like the music…keep up the good work…..Mrs. C.
i loved the wonderful bridges but the background was too busy i couldnt focus as much on the bridges. Keep up the good work!

Q: Pointers in B Tree I read about B trees and understand their input, delete methods. I read with an introduction like this:

When we build structures on disk, we must deal with certain realities of
      access and transfer time:

*

*Random access to disk typically requires on the order of 10-20 ms
  access time to position the head and wait for data to come up under
  it.

*Once the head position is right, data can be transferred at rates in
  excess of 1 million bytes/sec.

*Observe, then, how total transfer times behave for different size
  blocks (assuming a fairly fast 10 ms access time, and 1 megabyte/sec
  transfer rate)

So, B Tree Data Structure is made for serving from disk ( which is what makes them great for Databases ). But when I tried to implement it, I hit this problem.
Normal B Tree diagrams shows pointers to child nodes which then descend down to leaves.
But how do I make pointers on the disk?  Is it like a file name ?

A: On-disk-pointers are offsets from the beginning of the file.
if your key points to address n then it means that

*

*open the data-file

*read n bytes but discard them (or simply jump over them. that is called seeking. see below for how)

*start reading the data which is of your interest.

now, as optimizations,

*

*the data file could be already open, say when your program starts; could be cached in memory of course partially.

*rather than reading and discarding the bytes you can specifically instruct the framework to goto a specific location in the file. most languages have that feature. all OS do. This is called seeking. You call a method like file.seek(1024). To perform the jump, the OS has to know which point in disk the data you are seeking is located. That involves some more lookup, some disk movement, but that all is done by the OS.

*you can start reading data, but to know when to stop, either have fixed-width records or you can put the record-length in the first 4-bytes of your record. this makes headers and metadata which would grow with complexity.

what is interesting is that the pointers associated with each key point to left and right nodes there is no place for the data. so, in a textbook example like
struct node {
    int key;                      //this generally is the primary key of the table
    node left;
    node right;

    long offsetOfDataInDataFile;  // <----------- we need to add this line.
}

this way first you locate the node in the tree. then you locate the key. there you get the offset to the actual data. you goto the location in the data file and read contents.
if your table has got multiple indexes, then or each of the index in the table, one such tree would need to be maintained. the key of that tree would be the contents of the column which is indexed.

A: A 'pointer' in a B-tree is just an offset within the file that you can seek to. Or if you're going to have fixed block sizes it might be a block number, that you multiply by the block size before seeking.

Q: UWP - UDP connection only works over local networks I have recently been developing capabilities that are based on UDP transfer protocol, specifically using the DatagramSocket class.
This has been working very well between two machines that are both connected to the same Wifi access point (LAN), however, as soon as I leave and connect the remote machine to another access point, it is unable to connect to the sever.  Why isn't the UDP DatagramSocket that worked over LAN working beyond LAN?
(the code is written in vb.net is that matters)

It's been 5.5 years since we have returned to the US from Germany. We were over there for four years. In some ways, it seems like a lifetime ago. I look at all the photos from that time and they warm my heart. I think about how simple life was then. How beautiful everything was. How much I got to see. It is easy to forget that our time there wasn't always easy, especially since my husband was deployed twice for a total of 2 years and 3 months.
I tell people that if they ever get the opportunity to go overseas, they should. Being overseas is an amazing experience and you never know if you will ever get the overseas option again. You might not and this could be your only chance.
It is important to know what to expect when you get over there and how sometimes being overseas can be hard. That doesn't mean you shouldn't go, it just means that you should be aware that when you are over there isn't necessarily going to be 100% wonderful all of the time. If you think being overseas is going to be like that, you might get really disappointed when life doesn't work out that way.
Living overseas can be difficult because you will start to miss certain things about the US. You will miss your family and might not be able to see them for the years you are over there. Yes, for some people being overseas means going years without being able to see your family. Not everyone can afford to visit home and not everyone has family that can come visit. You can sometimes feel like you are stuck in a Military world and it can be difficult to take a break from that. You might have small children that are hard to travel with and a spouse who is always gone.
I think being away from family can be the hardest part about living overseas. You can't go home for the weekend. You can't even go home for a week. If you go home, it is going to be a huge trip.
When we were in Germany I started to miss a lot of the restaurants and stores I loved that were in the states. Although there are a lot of great opportunities for new food experiences overseas, sometimes you want something you are used to having on a regular basis. There is a Chilli's at Ramstein and ended up being closed when we were there. Thinking about that right now with one just 5 minutes away makes me laugh but I was pretty bummed out at the time. The PX will have American food. Ours had Taco Bell, Popeye's, Burger King, Pizza Hut and a Subway. I told myself I would never eat from those places again once I moved back but that didn't last too long.
When you are overseas you are going to have access to the Military community in a way you don't in the US. I never really understood that until we got to Fort Campbell. In Germany, we had to depend on the post for a lot of things. Our mail, all our healthcare, any American items we needed, etc. The Military post was "home" in a place that wasn't home. The military installation was a little break from having to be the outsider. Because of this, the Military community is a lot closer than it is in the United States. This was even truer when we were at Schweinfurt because there were only about 3,000 soldiers who were stationed there.
When being overseas is hard, try to remember the bigger picture. Yes, you will miss things about the United States. You will miss your family and all of that can be so difficult. But if you are able to get out and explore, even in your Germany city you will start to see the benefits of being stationed overseas. If you can truly embrace being overseas you will make memories that will last you a lifetime even when being stationed overseas is hard.
Have you felt like this when you were overseas? What did you do about it?
Totally agree! Being so far away from family is hard. This is our first time away from our daughter, who just turned 21 and is in college at our previous duty station. We haven't seen her in two years. My husband's mother is in her 90s and will likely not survive our return date. I missed the deaths of both my mother and sister. Our story is not unique for OCONUS military families.
Everything is "extra" when you're stationed OCONUS. Everyday errands can get complicated and you can't take ANYTHING for granted. The language barrier can get exhausting, even for those of us fortunate enough to speak the local language. It's hard not fully understanding the culture and customs you live among, and always feeling like an outsider. Misunderstandings are often blown out of proportion because of the gap in cultural understanding. Often, residents of your host nation don't even really want you there. Or they're obsessed with American products and want you to buy them everything in the PX (American KitchenAid stand mixers are in high demand among our German neighbors–hint: illegal and totally not worth the trouble you'd get into).
And on post, privacy is at a minimum because it's a smaller community; everyone knows what you're up to–what food you buy, what mail you get, whom you've argued with, whom you spend your time with ( I once showed a young man around the commissary and three wives approached me later that week on three separate occasions to ask me who he was, since they knew he wasn't my husband)!
There are many amazing opportunities for those stationed overseas, especially those who explore the local culture and all the travel opportunities. But you have to approach the situation realistically and realize that it will often be difficult and confusing. And that's okay.
Living overseas is tough. We have only been in Spain about 6 weeks. My husband has been gone for 4 of them. Since he has been gone our son (6) got sick then our daughter (1) did. Our daughter ended up having to stay at the hospital on base. I had to stay with her so my son ended up staying with a family I had just begun to get to know. My neighbors and new friends checked on us constantly. I have never liked to depend on other but I will say that you have to when you are overseas. Thank the good Lord for my new friends and neighbors. I am so thankful I opened up to others. We haven't been here long, but even with all our trials, we will make this the best station we can.


This new Cydia modify will not be for everyone, but if you are in need of a fast way to convert off all of your alert systems at once, it may come in useful. With a name like Take to Disable Alarms, you probably already have a wise decision of this tweak's only function.
Here are some of the best cydia apps tweaks & themes of 2013 for iphone 5 /4S /4 ipod touch 5g/4g.
There are a lot of styles on Cydia, so many, you would probably be there for times trying them all. The issue with most of them is that they are so rattling unpleasant. Jaku is one of those gemstones invisible away in Cydia.
No product is really that excellent at multi-tasking and having several windows, Windows 8 maybe an omission but it's still not "officially" out yet for pills.
With the latest launch of Firefox for iOS, it's been a large hit, leading the 100 % free downloading area of the app shop nearly immediately.
You'll need to jailbreak your iPhone for this, but once you do, a easy modify can put an precise speedometer into the standard Search engines Charts app so you can know exactly how quick you're currently journeying.
There are a a lot of methods to get a photographic camera fast way on your iPhone, whether it's via the secure display or otherwise, but Camera Grabber provides a technique that is high quality.
Cydia provides availability a lot of really amazing jailbreak-only programs, but it cannot actually tell you whether you have new up-dates until you begin it up individually.
The Apple iPhone, the iPhone 4 was developed with a heavy focus on enhancing its digital camera features and ability. It has greatly improved mp, an enhanced and quicker lens and a modern mild indicator feature.
iResQ got their hands on one of the "iPhone 5″ battery power and published new images showing battery power in the iPhone's rear shell and next to an iPhone 4S battery power for comparison.
A new modify, known as Violin Passcode, is now available in Cydia. This new modify allows you to open up your iOS system with wonderful songs. Once you set up the Violin Passcode modify, your system will no more need a 4-digit passcode.
The apple company also presented an all new iPod contact. This fifth creation is just 6.1 mm slim and is only 88 grms, making this the slimest and least heavy iPod contact. And just like the iPhone 5, it has a 4 inches retina show.
Besides the iPhone 5 and iOS 6 The apple company also presented new iPod nano's and iPod variations and a new edition of iTunes for Mac at the Sept Twelfth keynote. The new iPod nano's are bigger and slimmer.
Amazingly the iPhone 4s is the most successful cell cellphone in Asia. Why surprisingly? Well Asia is not known for their love for foreign high-tech products. During 2009 the very well-known journal Wired mentioned this as the primary reason why the iPhone did not become a success there.
Some reviews have recommended the next iPhone will have a 4.6-inch show. A new review, from iMore, statements the new iPhone will just have the same 3.5-inch display as all past iPhone designs.
The Collection of Congress has included new anti-circumvention exclusions to the DMCA that allow individuals to modify.


May I point out that all the predications for December were very bleak. It was to be a very dry month with little snow. It does remind me of an old professor at CU who used to comment on the silliness of Denver forecasters trying to predict mountain weather.
And it proves, once again, that not many out there have a grip on what global warming means to us in the mountains. We are near a record of snowfall that goes back to the 1940s, the beginning of this ski area, it makes me smile and reflect that in life we know very little at all.

No civilian (to include Veterans) is authorize the use or possession of military service weapons in the US. … You only keep your service weapon while you're on duty (in a billet that requires it) or while you are in a combat zone.
M1917 Revolver Formally known as the United States Revolver, the M1917 was another 45. caliber pistol used during WW2. Nevertheless, the M1917 revolver wasn't the most desired sidearm for a few reasons. The M1917 did have a good push, but many soldiers had a hard time reloading as quickly as they did the M1911A1.
On January 19, 2017, the United States Army announced that a customized version of the SIG Sauer P320 had won the Army's XM17 Modular Handgun System competition. The full-sized model will be known as the M17, and the smaller-sized carry model will be known as the M18.
P226 MK25The P226 MK25 is identical to the pistol carried by the U.S. Navy SEALs, the fleet's special warfare operators. The railed P226 chambered in 9mm and engraved with an anchor on the left side of the slide is the official sidearm of the SEALs.
The Beretta M9 was adopted by the Marine Corps in 1985 as its official duty pistol, as well as the Glock 9mm M007 and M45A1. The weapon was developed through the Army's Modular Handgun Systems program. Currently, the M17 and M18 are in service with the U.S. Army, Navy, Air Force, and Coast Guard.
It all stems from the Gun Dealer Licensing Act in Illinois. The act would require that all Illinois firearms dealers be licensed at the federal level as well as at the state level. Currently, federal level licensing is already required. Small dealers who sell less than 10 guns per year and big box stores were exempt.
M9M9 is a 9×19mm Parabellum pistol adopted by the United States Armed Forces in 1985. It is essentially a military specification Beretta 92FS.
U.S. military personnel will now be able to carry concealed handguns on base. … A 26-page Pentagon directive issued on Nov. 18 outlines guidance for soldiers to carry their privately owned, concealed firearms on military installations.
The Army believed that the Sig had a "slight technical advantage" over the Glock; a table in the GAO report suggested it scored a "good" rating to Glock's "acceptable." The Sig also won high points in both ergonomics and ballistic performance. … Glock also claimed Army evaluators were biased during evaluations.
Although loadouts vary per unit, team, and individual, this is what a Delta Force five-man team might carry for a direct action mission: HK416 rifles with a total of 1,500 rounds, Glock 17 or 21 or M1911 pistols with 425 to 500 rounds, a MK46 or 48 machine gun with 800 to 1,000 rounds, flash-bang and fragmentation …
Glocks have proven themselves accurate, simple, and reliable pistols for 30 years, and are already in the hands of dozens of militaries around the globe. Glocks are much lighter, and slightly smaller than the all-metal Sig Sauer P226, making them attractive to a SEAL having to carry a heavy load already.
In January 2017, Sig Sauer's P320 was announced as the winner of the XM17 Modular Handgun System competition. The pistol has two variants: the full-length M17 and the compact M18. The Army received its first M17s in June 2017.
Delta is now using 9mm Glock 17s, 19s and 34s. The 75th Ranger Regiment and Special Forces units use M9A1s and Glock 19s. SEAL Teams mostly use the Sig Sauer 226.
The rifle is their usual weapon. However, if they work with a crew-served weapon such as a machine gun they might also have a pistol. Not usually. A machine gunner may carry a sidearm, depending on the organization and equipment of the unit.

The Secret Service's current duty sidearm, the SIG-Sauer P229 double-action/single-action pistol chambered in . 357 SIG, entered service in 1999. It is the issued handgun to all special agents as well as officers of the Uniformed Division.

Nick Jonas welcomes us to the jungle in 'Jumanji'
Courtesy of Sony and Columbia Pictures
by Kelly Kerrigan, Staff Writer
In 1995 one of the most well known movies of all time was released that detailed the story of an intricate board game that absorbs its players into the world of Jumanji, a dangerous jungle filled with wild animals and frightening obstacles.
Now in 2017 Columbia pictures and Sony envisioned a new take on the game and continued the story of the cinema classic.
In the upcoming film "Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle," four high school students are forced to clean out their school's old basement during detention when one of them discovers an old video game console. The students each select an avatar to be in the game, but before they know it, they are sucked into the game and now physically look like the characters they picked.
Comedic stars like Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson, Jack Black, Karen Gillan and Kevin Hart take on the roles of these high school students by acting as they would if they were stuck in the jungle.
The four must survive the game in order to make it out alive but with the help of Alex, a character who has been stuck in the game for a long time, finding an escape seems possible.
Popular singer, actor and now Golden Globe nominee Nick Jonas takes on the role of Alex in the film.
"Finding a way to tell a new Jumanji adventure, a new story, is something that felt fresh and something that was able to take this beloved classic and introduce it to a brand new audience," Jonas said. "That's challenging, but if you get it right it can be incredibly rewarding."
Jonas' character Alex brings a stable ground to the adventure comedy.
"I think the thing I was drawn to about this role is in this really funny film that also has amazing action, I had the opportunity to bring emotional ground to it with this character," he said. "Then the chance to get to work with these actors—this is really an incredible group of people all on top of their game."
Something else Nick and Alex both having in common?
Their fear of flying, which is ironic because the character Alex is a pilot.
Once the characters are submerged into the video game they learn that each has different strengths and weaknesses, with Johnson's character having no weaknesses at all.
However Jonas does not come without weaknesses.
"In my own life I've been thinking a lot about what my strengths and weaknesses would be if I had to categorize it like a video game and I think I would say my strength would be I am very driven, very focused and my weakness would be I get in my head sometimes and kind of over think things and I think I could learn to just chill out a little bit."
The group of actors spent their time in Hawaii while filming in the beautiful terrain, but also dealing with the wildlife that comes with it. Jonas said next time he plans to pack more bug spray.
While talking about time on set, Jonas said he and Johnson were entertained by hiding bugs in Hart's room and video taping his reactions.
Jonas recently was honored with a Golden Globe nomination for his song "Home" in the new film "Ferdinand" while on the same day he attended his first big Hollywood premiere for "Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle."
"That day was one of the craziest days of my life," he said. "I'm still having new experiences and days like that where I wake up to a dream of mine coming true and close the day with another dream coming true."
The new movie was rated 84 percent on Rotten Tomatoes and so far has received many appraising reviews about the fresh take of original plot that features actor Robin Williams.
"Everyone has a connection to it, to Robin Williams, his legacy, his brilliance and I think that's why we really approached this with a lot of care," Jonas said.
The film hits theaters Dec. 20 for audiences of all ages to enter the dangerous adventure that is "Jumanji."

WASHINGTON (AP) — The future of the landmark Iran nuclear deal hangs in the balance and its survival may depend on the unlikely success of last-minute European interventions with President Donald Trump.
French President Emmanuel Macron and German Chancellor Angela Merkel are to visit Washington separately later this month and, barring a sudden trip by British Prime Minister Theresa May, will likely be the last foreign leaders invested in the deal to see Trump before his mid-May deadline for the accord to be strengthened. Trump has vowed to withdraw from the 2015 agreement by May 12 unless U.S., British, French and German negotiators can agree to fix what he sees as its serious flaws.
Iran has said U.S. withdrawal from the nuclear deal and reimposed sanctions would destroy the agreement and has threatened a range of responses including immediately restarting nuclear activities currently barred under the deal.
Negotiators met for a fourth time last week and made some progress but were unable to reach agreement on all points, according to U.S. officials and outside advisers to the Trump administration familiar with the status of the talks. That potentially leaves the Iran deal's fate to Macron, who will make a state visit to Washington April 24, and Merkel, who plans a working visit to the U.S. capital April 27.
"It's important to them and I know they'll raise their hopes and concerns when they travel here to the United States in the coming days," Mike Pompeo, the CIA chief and secretary of state-designate, told lawmakers Thursday.
Pompeo's testimony at his Senate confirmation hearing came a day after the negotiators met at the State Department to go over the four issues Trump says must be addressed if he is to once again renew sanctions relief for Iran, officials said.
To clear the impasse, one official and one outside adviser said a compromise is being considered under which sanctions would be re-imposed if Iran did enough work to reduce the time it would need to develop a nuclear weapon to less than a year. The current deal aims to keep Iran's so-called "breakout time" to a year. But the expiration of the sunset provisions, the first of which is in 2024, means that the breakout time could eventually drop.
Given the remaining differences, U.S. national security officials are stepping up planning for various "day after" scenarios, including how to sell a pullout as the correct step for national security, how aggressively to reimpose U.S. sanctions on Iran that had been lifted under the agreement and how to deal with Iranian and European fallout from such a step.

UT Voting Rights Symposium Jan. 28-29
View all the posts from January 18, 2005
The University of Tennessee will hold a symposium Jan. 28-29 to commemorate the 40th anniversary of the passage of the Voting Rights Act of 1965.
The opening ceremony will be held at the Hodges Library auditorium. All other events will be held in the UT University Center.
Among the speakers will be some of the key architects of the legislation, which removed laws designed to discourage African-Americans from voting.
UT History Professor Cynthia Fleming, symposium organizer, said it's worthy to take another look at the history of the civil rights movement.
"The civil rights era, from the late 1950s to the early 1970s, had a tremendous impact on this country," Fleming said. "The whole legal, social, economic and educational landscape changed as a result of the movement."
Fleming said the removal of legal barriers such as racial segregation opened up opportunities for everyone.
"Had we not achieved educational integration, I wouldn't be here as a professor at the University of Tennessee," she said. "The whole notion of being more tolerant of each other, of recognizing the strength of diversity in our society, all of that grows directly from the civil rights movement.
"That's why we need to regularly pause and remember what happened," Fleming said.
Speakers at symposium sessions Friday, Jan. 28, and Saturday, Jan. 29, include Dr. C.T. Vivian, a member of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s inner circle and director of affiliates for the Southern Christian Leadership Conference; and Charles Jones, an attorney who headed the voter registration wing of the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee (SNCC).
A highlight of the symposium will be Saturday's concert of civil rights-era music, led by Guy and Candie Carawan of Knoxville and Bettie Fikes of the SNCC Singers.
All events are free and open to the public. A schedule is available at http://www.artsci.utk.edu/VotingRights_Commemoration.asp.


Hi! There is a lot of poor quality popular science around the internet, so I decided to write some high quality original content on statistical physics for Yours community. High quality in terms of physics, not language, as english is my second language.
My article will be on the topic of the negative temperatures in Kelvin degrees, something that is popularly believed not to exist (!) and I will tell you where you can find the negative temperatures in the real life. It's surprisingly present in our everyday life. I hope you ll find it worth reading. I tried to write it as simple as I could but I think you should have at least high school completed as preliminaries to enjoy my work.
Was a bit abstract and hard to read, but nevertheless, interesting.

Valley of Gwangi, The
Director: Jim O'Connolly
Stars: James Franciscus, Gila Golan, Laurence Naismith, Richard Carlson, Freda Jackson, Gustavo Rojo, Dennis Kilbane, Mario De Barros, Curtis Arden
Genre: Western, Fantasy, Adventure
Review: Stop-motion legend Willis O'Brien conceived this wild west dinosaur epic back in 1942, although it took twenty-seven years to reach the screen under the aegis of his protégé, Ray Harryhausen. In the old west, stuntman-turned-entrepreneur "Tuck" Kirby (James Franciscus) visits a small Mexican town where he tries to buy an ailing circus off his former fiancé T.J. Breckinridge (Gila Golan). But T.J. plans to revive her fortunes thanks to a new star attraction: a tiny horse that Tuck, aided by British palaeontologist Professor Horace Bromley (Laurence Naismith) and Mexican monster-fan Lope (Curtis Arden), learns is a prehistoric Eohippus.
Gypsy woman Madame Zorina (Freda Jackson) believes the animal is cursed and despatches a gang of thieves, aided by Bromley who hopes it will lead him to the Forbidden Valley. Tuck and Lope are roped into this dangerous escapade, with T.J., "Champ" Connors (Richard Carlson) and their fearless cowboys in pursuit until they reach the valley where time stood still. Here they discover a flying Pterodactyl, a scampering Ornithomimus, the spiky Styracosaurus and a ferocious Allosaurus nicknamed Gwangi.
Cowboys versus dinosaurs is such a dynamic concept it's a wonder why it took so long to happen and why no-one has tried it since. Imagine John Wayne punching out a triceratops! It isn't too far-fetched, John Ford was an uncredited director on Harryhausen's Mighty Joe Young (1949). Three years after the hit Hammer co-production, One Million Years B.C. (1966), Harryhausen had perfected Dynamation dinosaurs to the point where The Valley of Gwangi features some of his most striking work. The little Eohippus and sky blue Gwangi (whom the animator admits looks more like a Tyrannosaurus Rex) are beautiful creations, while Jerome Moss' rousing score adds punch to the exciting, action set-pieces.
And yet this suffers some of the problems Willis O'Brien identified in Harryhausen's early efforts as a fledgling animator. His animation is technically impeccable, yet devoid of emotion. The Mexican townsfolk may cry when Gwangi (actually a Native American name for "lizard") meets its fiery fate, but Harryhausen is unable to inspire us to do the same. The plot - as with any Harryhausen/Charles H. Schneer production not based on ancient myth - is purely functional, designed to show off the monsters with little in the way of engaging or even sympathetic characters. A bikini-clad Raquel Welch almost upstaged his prehistoric menagerie last time round, but there is no danger of that happening here. Franciscus and Golan (whose thick Spanish accent was re-dubbed) are unexceptional. Tuck is scripted as a curiously smug and charmless hero, although turning a stock, stuffy British professor like Bromley into a villain is an interesting touch.
While it takes around forty-five minutes before the dinosaurs appear, it's the action and spectacle that keeps us entertained. From the cowboys neck-snapping battle with the pterodactyl, the roping of Gwangi like an errant steer and his circus rampage at the climax. Well orchestrated by Jim O'Connolly, whose eccentric genre work includes Bizarre! (1967) - another circus set monster movie - and Tower of Evil (1971).

After The Spectacular Supermoon, Comes The Gleaming Geminids 2016: A Shower Of Stars, Is There A Catch?
In case you might have missed last month's Taurid and Leonid meteor showers, astronomers have recently confirmed that December will be another chance for stargazers to watch up for the night sky. A spectacular Geminid meteor shower is once again expected to happen this month. NASA has revealed that the Geminids are one of the best and most reliable meteor showers. At its peak, 120 meteors can be seen per hour under perfect conditions, however, there's a catch, this year, experts have found that the peak coincides with a full moon which they say could potentially outshine the show.
Geminids 2016 And The Full Moon
According to reports released by Mirror, the meteor shower occurs in the last month of each year and is created by debris from the 3200 Paethon asteroid that passes close to the sun during its orbit. Like other meteor showers, astronomers said that the Geminid doesn't get going properly yet until the early hours, but the good thing is that you will not need any kind of a specialist's equipment in order to see it. Authorities have also said that the phenomenon will be set to peak from December 12 to December 15. During this period, the Geminids will reward stargazers with bright shooting stars and is particularly visible in the northern hemisphere.
Furthermore, as revealed by the Daily Mail, the meteor shower can be seen starting around 9 p.m. to 10 p.m. local time and are viewable until the early morning hours. Additionally, experts all over the world believes that meteors are the result of particles smaller than one centimeter entering the Earth's atmosphere at high speed, burning up and heating the air around them. In this case, the Geminid meteors are known to have been associated with the object 3200 Phaethon, which many astronomers believe to be an extinct comet.
Ultimately, for those who may be disappointed that the Geminids meteor shower may be outshone by a supermoon this year, the Ursid meteor shower is set to be happening on Dec. 22. People in the UK will be able to spot meteors in the sky around midnight, while those in the US will see the peak in the predawn hours of December 22. It was found out that the final major astronomical event scheduled this year will be the alignment of Jupiter and the moon will also take place during this time.

00                             SENATE BILL NO. 159
01 "An Act relating to air ambulance service providers, air ambulance membership
02 agreements, and regulation of air ambulance service providers and air ambulance

Equipment manufacturer required the ability to not only clean the air but also to reclaim valuable product. The dual cyclone pre-cleaners collect re-usable product which is then conveyed back to the powder spray system. The SFC cartridge collector provides the collection of fine particulate before returning the cleaned air back to the work area.
A popular choice of dust collection for the powder coating industry is the MCB series of modular dust collectors. The 4500 CFM units can be fitted in a variety of configurations to both new and existing spray booths or containment areas. The MCB series provide excellent cross flow velocities and provide extremely even airflow through the work area as the result of extensive computer design. The simple cartridge change-outs add to the versatility and ease of these units.


A few years ago the HTC Desire was the Android phone to have. Elegantly designed, it could do everything an iPhone could, but at a better price. Then the Samsung Galaxy came along, and dominated the Android field.
Suddenly it seemed like everyone had a Galaxy… apart from me. I opted for the battery gobbling HTC Desire HD rather than a Galaxy S2 – which was like the larger, uglier, deceased younger brother of the original Desire.
Back to 2013 and HTC have recently released the Desire 500 – can they win back my love? Here's my review.
The 500 is squarely aimed at the midmarket Android user. The top end has the metallic HTC One now, leaving the plastic 500 to those on a budget. This said – it still feels solidly built.
The screen is a fairly large 4.3″ though perhaps disappointingly, isn't HD – running at only 848×480 resolution. What appears on it still looks nice and crisp – it's only when playing a HD video that you notice the things start to look a bit fuzzy.
Surprisingly despite HTC's endless TV adverts touting the dual speakers on the HTC One, this new 500 only has a single speaker. It does the job, but it doesn't actually blow you away.
Interestingly too, unlike some Android devices, the Home and the back buttons are still buttons on the casing – not just sat permanently at the bottom of the screen. They're not proper buttons – but the touch sort that you don't press down or pop up. You know what I mean.
Perhaps the biggest thing to note isn't what's there, but what is missing. Unlike other Android phones, the 500 doesn't have an easily removable battery. You can replace it – but this entails snapping off the entire back cover of the phone. Not the end of the world but more fiddly than would be ideal.
On the inside, it's powered by a 1.2ghz Qualcomm Snapdragon 200 – not the fastest processor in the world, but it still seemed to do most things okay. Switching between apps still felt fast and quick, even when switching between fullscreen video and web browsing. Similarly there's 1GB of RAM – which seems about standard with other phones in this bracket.
Unfortunately storage is only 4GB – which on the review phone I was sent, was almost running out with very little installed on there – so you're definitely going to want to expand it with a MicroSD card – which sadly isn't included.
Connectivity-wise the phone has everything you'd expect – all of the normal wifi and bluetooth standards, as well as DLNA for media streaming and there's even NFC, which is a nice bonus.
Camera-wise, again nothing spectacular – but competent. There's an 8 megapixel rear camera and a 1.6MP on the front – and it can shoot in 720p.
On the software side, the phone is running Android Jellybean, albeit a version covered in HTC's own custom software. For Android purists, this is likely to irritate (and I bet it'll mean you'll have to wait longer for the KitKat upgrade), but HTC Sense seems to have come along leaps and bounds since the Desire HD.
Perhaps the biggest difference, if you've not used an HTC recently is the addition of "BlinkFeed" to your home screen. What this does is aggregate different sources of updates together – so once you've provided the right credentials, it'll show a selection of your tweets, and Facebook updates, as well news stories from a variety of sources including many newspapers. Whether you want to be confronted with the mugshot of the latest murderer when you unlock your phone though, is up to you.
The phonebook nicely integrates with Twitter and Facebook accounts too, so you can get a snapshot of what they're up to before calling.
Plus HTC Sense provide an additional backup solution – ideal for paranoid.
My one worry with all of this though is what it will do to battery life – if the homescreen is refreshing every few minutes, and the Twitter entries in your phonebook do the same… that's a lot of data and a lot of processing. So don't be surprised if you end up switching these off so your phone will last more than a few hours.
All in all, the HTC Desire 500 seems like a competent piece of hardware. As a midmarket phone it fill it's role very comfortably – offering a slick Android experience at what will no doubt be a reduced price.
If you're looking for something new and don't want to break the bank, this could be a good choice – but if you're a "power user", then you might want to look elsewhere.

Krispy Kreme's Gingerbread Glazed Doughnut Is Back For A Limited Time
By Callie Tansill-Suddath
Gingerbread is one of many examples of delicious desserts only consumed once a year. Much like hot cocoa, peppermint, and eggnog, gingerbread is reserved for the winter months. While some may think of this as a bad thing, the flip side is you get to look forward to the flavors all year. Few things are sweeter than anticipation, right? Gingerbread found its way onto breakfast tables long ago in the form of Starbucks' Gingerbread Latte. But, this year you can double-fist the spicy-sweet taste of gingerbread thanks to the return of the Krispy Kreme Gingerbread Glazed Doughnut.
Beginning Wednesday, Dec. 19, the seasonal Gingerbread Glazed Doughnut will be available at Krispy Kreme locations nationwide. Per Krispy Kreme, the Gingerbread Glazed is a variation on the original, but swaps the traditional yeast dough for gingerbread dough, and is covered in a warm gingerbread molasses glaze. The spicy-sweet notes in gingerbread are typically a result of its unique and heavy-handed incorporation of spices. So, it is safe to assume the doughnut will tickle your tastebuds with ginger, cinnamon, cloves, cardamom, and pepper. The molasses provides a richer, thicker finishing touch. It could be argued the Gingerbread Glazed doughnut is reserved for a more sophisticated palate.
Another highlight from the array of offbeat gingerbread-flavored treats you can snag this season is Gingerbread-flavored Halo Top. Last year, Food & Wine revealed Halo Top to be the most popular pint of ice cream in the United States. Once you taste the seasonal Gingerbread House variety, this will make all the sense in the world. Per Halo Top, the flavor is "loaded with ginger cookie bites and rich swirls of icing." The icing swirl really mellows the spiciness of the gingerbread, which in itself gives an extra layer of decadence to the treat.
Boutique confectionary Sugarfina has also released a take on the classic. The brand's mini mouthfuls are called Santa's Cookies, and, per their description, "...taste like they are fresh from the (North Pole) oven." Adorably tiny gingerbread cookies are coated in a layer of creamy white chocolate infused with cinnamon and spice, and wrapped in a limited-edition label sporting an illustration of the big man himself: Santa Claus.
Santa's Cookies
Of course, naturally, nothing pairs better with a doughnut than coffee. If you want have the ultimate gingerbread experience for breakfast, you mind need to make a few stops. Krispy Kreme isn't releasing any gingerbread-flavored coffee drinks this year (finger crossed for next year). But, why try to improve on the perfection that is the Starbucks Gingerbread Latte? Per the coffee chain's description, the Gingerbread Latte is where "sweet and delicately spicy gingerbread flavors mingle with our classic espresso and steamed milk and are topped with whipped cream and ground nutmeg for the perfect holiday touch."
It is the most wonderful time of the year: gingerbread season. Good things never last too long, so make sure you get to Krispy Kreme before Christmas Day, when the gingerbread doughnut retires to the North Pole for the rest of the year.


Not everyone has someone by their side when they have to pass on from the world of the living to the dead. One man, Tommy Yu, has opened up his life to help these who are all alone in their last hour and sought to show them grace. His flat becomes a waiting room of sorts, one with a collection of dozens of watches; their last possessions that are not allowed to travel with them to the afterlife.
Director-writer Nicole Midori Woodford is a Singaporean filmmaker who examines the nature of trauma upon memory and its permanence. The film centrally dwells upon memory that transcends our deaths, and redemption. Even if the tangible is lost, the soul of a place or person continues to exist in the memory and in time. Her works have always dwelled on how parallel worlds dissect or overlap. The film is about the human condition and what lies beyond the void. The characters in the film all journey to look for a certain someone who is missing from their lives. They eventually discover residual vestiges of loved ones through these encounters.Nicole Midori Woodford is an alumnus of the Asian Film Academy and Berlinale Talents in 2010. Her latest short film For we are strangers made its world premiere at the 20th Busan International Film Festival in the Wide Angle Short Film Competition, 2015.

Attached is the second weekly master re-scheduling notice for the 2018/19 season. The attached master re-scheduling notice is three pages long and lists the games that are to be played in every division this weekend, January 26/27. In addition there are a few reminders about the Lower Island playdowns in the Provincial/Coastal B Cup competition that begins this weekend.
Also there was a Girls U16/15 LISA Cup semi-final not played this past Saturday because of a field closure. That outstanding LISA Cup match has been re-scheduled for this Saturday, January 26.
It is important that you report to your score recorder on time. It is the responsibility of both teams to report all their games (league and cup) to their score recorder. If you did not play your scheduled game then both teams still must report to their score recorder and you need to include why you did not play.
Re-scheduling is done on a weekly basis in order to accommodate the Coastal/Provincial B Cup and LISA Cup competitions as those matches have priority over league games, both in scheduling and in field assignments. Teams playing in the Coastal/Provincial B Cup or LISA Cup will not be available for league play that weekend so schedules have to be revised in order to compensate for their absence.
Re-scheduling is also done for teams when the last date on their league schedule has passed and their District Cup playdowns have yet to start. LISA will continue to schedule games for those leagues on a weekly basis until their District Cup playdowns begin.
In addition, re-scheduling is sometimes done in order to play some outstanding games.
Once the pairing for teams in one game is changed that impacts the match up of teams in other games which then leads to those pairings being changed.
When LISA re-schedules one of your games for the upcoming weekend you play that game instead of the game listed on your original schedule. The game that was originally scheduled for that day then becomes an outstanding game.
Make sure you check the League Play section of the LISA website to confirm all the games you have played have been posted. Please note that games are identified by the date for which they are listed on your original schedule. So if you are checking for scores for outstanding games they will be posted alongside their original date not the date on which they were actually played.
In order to make up any outstanding league game "on your own time" (i.e. outside of the standard weekend time for which LISA schedules) both teams must agree upon the re-scheduling. One team can not schedule the game and try to force the other team into playing it then.
If you have made arrangements to make up an outstanding game then both teams need to inform LISA (through your score recorder or the district scheduler) as far in advance as possible. By doing so hopefully we will be able to avoid the double-booking of games such as when two teams agree to play an outstanding game, for example, on a Wednesday evening and then receive their weekly re-scheduling notice listing that game to be played that Saturday or Sunday.
If the weekly re-scheduling notice lists your game as one to be played "in advance" of the date for which it was originally scheduled your score will be posted alongside the date for which that game was originally scheduled, not the date on which you played that game. Please note that only LISA can re-schedule games to be played "in advance" of their original date. If two teams want to play a league game prior to the date for which it is listed on their schedule those teams must apply for and receive LISA approval in order to do so.
At this time of the season communication between teams, their opponents and their clubs is very important. Do not assume everybody will receive the re-scheduling notice that is emailed out every week. Teams should contact their opposition far enough in advance to confirm their games for each weekend.
The Lower Island playdowns in the Provincial/Coastal B Cup begin this weekend with the quarter-final rounds (i.e. for those draws of five to eight teams). The draw grids are posted on the LISA website. In the drop-down box for the COMPETITIONS tab, go to "Cups >" and select "Provincial Cup – A, B and Coastal Cups." Those draw grids will be updated with results after each weekend of play.
The semi-final rounds in the Lower Island playdowns will take place February 2/3 and the Lower Island finals February 9/10.
Please note that February 16/17 is the Family Day long weekend and league games (including important games that could help determine league champions) are scheduled to be played that weekend. However if there are outstanding B Cup matches they will be scheduled for the February 16/17 weekend instead of the league games for those teams.
The winners of the Lower Island playdowns will go on to represent the Lower Island district in the inter-district Coastal B Cup playdowns. The first inter-district match for the Lower Island reps will be against the Upper Island reps the weekend of February 23/24.
The start time for matches between the Upper and Lower Island can not be before 12 noon or after 4:00 p.m. (unless both teams are in agreement) and any Lower Island home match involving Powell River needs to take into account their ferry schedule and travel plans. Powell River teams playing in the Lower Island sometimes want to travel to the Lower Island and return home the same day. And sometimes they travel here the day before and want to play the following morning (starting before 12 noon) in order to have more time to travel back up-island to catch the ferry back home.
The winners of the matches between the Lower Island reps and the Upper Island reps (those matches are known as the "Island qualifiers") will represent the Vancouver Island/Powell River region at their provincial tournaments in July. These Island winners also continue on with the Coastal B Cup playdowns advancing to the quarter-final rounds where they will play Lower Mainland teams.
In addition, the losers of the Island qualifiers (known as the "Vancouver Island/Powell River runners-up") will continue on with the Coastal B Cup playdowns advancing to the quarter-final rounds where they will play Lower Mainland teams. If an Island runner-up wins the Coastal Cup final that team also qualifies for the provincial tournament as the "first place Coastal B Cup" team.
NOTE: There will be NO Upper Island B Cup rep in Girls U16. Therefore in the Girls U16 division the winner of the Lower Island playdowns will win the "first place Vancouver Island/Powell River" berth for their provincial tournament in July. This "first place Vancouver Island/Powell River" team will also continue on into the quarter-finals of the Coastal B Cup where it will play a Lower Mainland team.
In addition, in the Girls U16 division the team that loses the Lower Island final is not eliminated from the Coastal B Cup. Since there will be no Upper Island U16 Girls B Cup rep the loser of the Lower Island final will become the "Vancouver Island/Powell River runner-up" and continue on into the quarter-finals of the Coastal B Cup where it will play a Lower Mainland team. The Girls U16 "Vancouver Island/Powell River runner-up" can also qualify for the provincial tournament by winning the Coastal B Cup final.
The quarter-final rounds of the Coastal B Cup are scheduled for the weekend of April 13/14. The semi-finals of the Coastal B Cup will be played on the weekend of April 27/28. All Coastal B Cup finals will be held the weekend of May 4/5 on the Lower Mainland.
While the B Cup competition is under way teams will play their B Cup match instead of the league game that was originally scheduled for them that weekend. The league game will then become an outstanding game and can be made up by agreement of both teams involved.
B Cup matches have priority over all other youth games in regards to scheduling and fields. If any B Cup match can not be played because fields are closed (both the designated home club and the visiting club do not have an open field on which the match can be played) the re-scheduling of that match is up to LISA. Note that LISA can re-schedule an outstanding cup match, or a cup match that needs to be re-played because of a successful protest, for any time, any day.
If the two teams are tied on goals at the end of regulation time the teams will play two equal halves of extra time as per the duration for their age division. From U14 up to and including U16 that is 2 x 10-minute halves. For U17 and U18 that is 2 x 15-minute halves. The full length of the extra time will be played no matter how many goals are scored during the two extra-time halves.
If the score is tied at the conclusion of the full extra time session the outcome of the match will be decided by kicks from the penalty spot, as per FIFA rules.
*REMEMBER TO REPORT THE SCORES FOR ALL YOUR GAMES (league and cup) TO YOUR LISA SCORE RECORDER LISTED ON YOUR WEBSITE SCHEDULE. WHEN REPORTING INCLUDE THE GENDER, AGE DIVISION AND LEVEL OF PLAY (Gold, Silver). IF YOU PLAYED A B CUP OR LISA CUP MATCH THEN PLEASE IDENTIFY IT AS SUCH.
FOR LEAGUE GAMES PLEASE MAKE SURE YOU HAVE CLEARLY INDICATED WHICH TEAM WON OR IF IT WAS A DRAW.
FOR B CUP MATCHES DECIDED IN EXTRA TIME PLEASE ALSO INCLUDE THE TIED SCORE AT THE END OF REGULATION TIME IN ADDITION TO THE FINAL SCORE.
FOR B CUP MATCHES DECIDED BY A PENALTY SHOOTOUT PLEASE INCLUDE THE TIED SCORE AT THE END OF REGULATION TIME, THE TIED SCORE AT THE END OF EXTRA TIME AND YOUR PENALTY SHOOTOUT SCORE. PLEASE MAKE SURE YOU HAVE CLEARLY INDICATED WHICH TEAM WON.
IF YOU DO NOT PLAY YOUR GAME THEN YOU MUST ALSO REPORT AND PROVIDE THE REASON WHY YOUR GAME WAS NOT PLAYED.

Summer is burgers-on-the-grill season... but, apparently, also faux-burgers-in-cupcake-form season.
This once-bitten example was not shy about being a production of Mary Ann Williams, for the Brooktondale Market, near Ithaca, NY.
It's summer, so we spend a lot of time on the road. This gives us the opportunity to try many regional beers and local variations on the hamburger theme. So far, the most interesting one was layered with bacon, sliced jalapeños, and pimento cheese. Some day we'll post photos of the beer cans and bottles we've sampled, as we seem to be living in the golden age of "artisanal" beers and—even more—artisanal labels.
We've been distracted from writing about food lately (a non-foodish novel has been taking up our time, instead). So, no new links of our own; just the usual monthly potluck, below.
This month's quotes (from On the Table's culinary quote collection are about some of the surrogates we are invited to ingest. They are amusing in much the same the way that gallows humor amuses us.

I hope this is not a duplicate request as I could not find one similar. I have a sheet with several thousand rows. In one column, about half of the cells have comments attached. We are in need of transfering the data to a Access DB and at this point we will lose all data that has been entered into a comment. I am thinking there must be a way of copying the data in a comment to an adjacent cell so that we may save that data for the DB.
Select your entire column and copy it. Select the cell in the first row of any other column and go to Edit>PasteSpecial-Comments.
Thanks but that just pastes the same comment in that cell, not the text from the comment. It still will not be visible in Access.
That did work as far as copying the text. I was hoping it could copy to an adjacent cell from each commented cell. It put all comments in column B from 1 thru 825 but they are not in line or connected with the reference cell. I would insert a column next to the column with commented cells and the macro would copy comment text from cell C3 and paste it in cell D3. That way I know which comment goes with which row of information. As it tuns out there are at least 2 columns that have the comments in them as well. I will play with your macro to see what I can do however I am no expert. :) Thanks for the help as it gets me going in the right direction.
Chas, you must have overlooked my last post, so here it is again.
, you must have overlooked my last post, so here it is again.
Thank you so much. That one works perfectly as envisioned. I don't know how I missed the previous post other than maybe my need for glasses as well.

Kazakhstan, European nations keen to buy vaccines from India
NEW DELHI: A key Central Asian state and some European nations, whose envoys visited vaccine manufacturing facilities in Hyderabad on Wednesday, are keen on partnering with India on purchasing Covid-19 vaccines as well as in undertaking joint research to produce vaccines.
Kazakhstan, Central Asia's biggest state and India's largest trade partner in the region, is open to the idea of both purchasing vaccines from India as well as entering into joint collaboration, ambassador Yerlan Alimbayev, who was part of the team, told ET.
"In the current international situation, India is becoming a 'world pharmacy'. I had a chance to see myself that India is perfectly capable to carry on this responsible mission. It is very encouraging and hopes are arising for an early introduction of vaccines against coronavirus," he said. Alimbayev also said he was "encouraged and touched" by Prime Minister Narendra Modi's statement that India would share the vaccines with the world.

Benvenuti nel cuore d'Europa, benvenuti nel cuore delle Alpi, benvenuti in Alta Rezia.
Experiencing the Alta Rezia means immersing yourself in the thousand hues of this beautiful Alpine region. The green mountains, the white snow and glaciers, or the blue of the water that runs into the many lakes of the Engadine, the Alta Valtellina and the Val Poschiavo.
The golden sun that illuminates the breathtaking views, the brown of the wood, that ancient and vital resource of the earth and an eternal symbol of the bond between humans and the environment, or the famous red Bernina train that climbs from an altitude of 450 metres at Tirano to more than 2,200 metres at the pass, through enchanted unspoilt valleys. Getting to know the Alta Rezia is an adventure that deserves to be taken slowly, letting yourself be guided by instinct, discovering a region that is lively and charming, rich in nuances and the outcome of millennia of history.
The worlds on the different sides of the Alps may too differ, but they are bound by centuries of deep-lying relationships and the typical values of mountain people: respect for nature and a fierce defence of their freedom and traditions.
Solidarity, sobriety, tenacity; but also home, family and land enrich this world-view.
To all this can now be added the awareness of living in a paradise marked by nature and serenity, something that everyone can discover and appreciate.
