Welcome to the world of the bird people! You play as Shu, and after a terrible storm destories Shu's Village, it's up to Shu to platform his way to victory, rescue the stranded villagers, and stop the devastating storm from reaping havoc but the question remains, is Shu worth your time? The real question is, do bird people even wear shoes? The real question is, could I have come up with a better joke at 4:00 AM? Probably not.
In Shu, you play as a cute bird [owl?] person named Shu, coincidentally when your village is suddenly attacked by a terrible storm. It's up to Shu to platform around in a nice little 2.5D platformer while dodging obstacles, saving villagers, and using unique powers granted by said villagers to help save your people and stop the terrible storm once and for all. The basic gameplay is the platforming, and in the world of Shu and the strange bird people who look more and more convincingly like Owl Boy, it's not bad. It's platforming is similar to Dust: An Elysian Tail, but with a smaller character, and with puzzles and quick(ish) reflexes from games like On Rusty Trails in the sense that along the way, you'll gather villagers who grant you unique abilities, similar to how the suit in On Rusty Trails granted to the ability to stand on different platforms and be injured by different things. Some of these abilities include standing on water and hovering in certain areas.
The game is split up into a series of worlds. With each world, you will be introduced to an intro level / intro level with villagers, and a running to the right level and avoiding big huge scary cloud with the face of Alec Baldwin level / section with the game mixing it up from time to time. The worlds are broken up mostly by theme, with a nice cohesion between levels, from abandoned ruins to a beautiful village by a beach, with a total of 15 levels to explore. The two new villagers you find in each world will grant Shu to use unique abilities that allows you to platform through the levels in different ways, often combining the skills of each character towards the latter levels of the worlds in order to increase difficulty. I say that the villages grant you unique abilities because Shu: owl boy meets the bird person from Rick and Morty doesn't actually gain these abilities, and the game takes advantage of that by having certain sections of the world only being platformed by Shu, rather than Shu and the two stranded villagers he finds. It could be seen as another gameplay gimmick , but it's not actually that bad. The levels make sure to gradually increase platforming difficulty so you never feel too overwhelmed by any one challenge, and that difficulty ramp is nice and smooth up until the last level, which asks you to take everything you've learned and put it to the test. Finally, there's the scary storm with Alec Baldwin face sections, which take everything you've learned about that particular world, it's puzzles, it's traps, and it's villager powers that it introduces and throws it all at you as you're being chased by a bluish purple storm that reminds me slightly of the color of Ivan Ooze from Power Rangers. They're a nice touch that really help to speed up certain sections of the game and test the player's skill.
The beginning level of each world gradually steps you into that world's puzzles, and makes sure to step you up higher and higher as the level progresses, making it's platforming feel nice and simple. Each level has a series of checkpoints that automatically refills your lives counter to five, and they're fairly plentiful in most of the worlds. If you die, you have to restart that particular level. Since the levels don't go over 10 minutes, it's not absolutely terrible if you die, but it can get annoying.
The platforming overall is simple and easy to grasp. A few gripes about the game is the hitbox is either too forgiving or not forgiving enough. One particular section in the last level for example I died to at least several times because the platform's hitbox extended beyond the actual platform, leading me to die a lot because I kept hitting the empty void near the platform, but the game insisted I was hitting the platform. There's only a few moments like this, but it really makes the player question how many of the deaths were really his or her fault, especially in some segments were you die because you had to wait for a platform to do something to jump on it, and while you were waiting Ivan Ooze Alec Baldwin Scary Cloud Man murdered you and you couldn't do anything because you didn't get to the transforming platform at the perfect moment because that's the time the checkpoint respawned you at.
But yah, it's decent platforming minus those few gripes.
You also have some collectibles to pick up and what not. You have butterflies [why? Who knows…] and you have baby bird-owl things. You don't get anything for collecting either except some achievements and what not and the feeling of accomplishment if you really just don't like butterflies. You do get a medal at the end for collecting X number of butterflies, and the game's fairly lenient on not needing to collect all 400+ butterflies to get the gold medal, which is actually kinda cool honestly. I don't know many other games that would reward me for just getting close enough to something, so that's cool.
You also have a time trial mode that allows you to time yourself in levels (once you've beaten them once) against other players. A nice touch for players who like that sort of thing and while not my cup of tea, I can certainly see the appeal.
Visually, the game's quite pretty to look at. The 2.5D style makes the character and backdrops stand out from the 3D levels, and is really just a very beautiful game to look at. The animations are also quite nice, if a bit low-frame, and the levels visually hold a nice appeal to them with the character designs being pretty to look at. I wish the game was zoomed in slightly more to see more detail on the characters, but the game looks great other than that, using lighting techniques to make the game look better, and to possibly hide away from the the low-res textures.
Audio wise, the music's great. I can't really think of any track that played too often or felt too long or too dull. It's not the kind of music you head bang to, but it fits the game quite nicely.
As for the controls, they're great with a controller, and that's the only way I tested the game because that's how I play platformers. If you do want and insist upon playing a 2D platformer with a keyboard because you're a madman, you have the option of rebindable keys, which is actually sorta rare for 2D platformers, so props to the developers for that. It doesn't make me like keyboard for 2D platformers, but your opinion may vary. It's also interesting that they offer a configuration for Xbox 360, Xbox One, PS4, and custom controller configuration options. You can't customize the default profiles, but you have a total of two custom profiles for either keyboard or controller that you can configure and switch around. Really cool honestly. As for settings, they're not bare bones as some other platformers we've played, but it's not Dust: An Elysian Tail level of customization. That being said, you do have a decent amount of customization options, including AA and AF if that's your thing.
Overall, I enjoyed my time with the game for the 2 – 4 hours I played it. It's a simple, easy to grasp platformer that gets most things right. It doesn't break the mold for 2D platformers, but it will certainly scratch an itch if you've been hankering to play one recently.

Connemara, by Kevin Whelan
Paper delivered by Kevin Whelan, Director of the Keough Naughton Centre of the University of Notra Dame, Dublin, at Connemara Before Clifden seminar held in Clifden on 26th May 2012.
In 1756 it was noted of Connemara and the Joyce country that 'wheeled carriages are not much used in this country'. In 1783, Karl Kuttner, a German visitor, avoided Connemara because he heard that it was 'inhabited by a kind of savage'. In 1798, Lord Altamont in Westport House urged the government to attend quickly to Erris and Connemara:
Erris is at present inaccessible from the mountain floods and the wretched roads are scarcely fit to be called footpaths. It would be a material object to the peace and security of these parts if Erris and Connemara were opened. They are at present asylums for all the deserters, outlaws, robbers and murderers of the kingdom.
Maria Edgeworth had first experience of the difficult road to Ballynahinch in Connemara; her heavy carriage got stuck in the 'sloughs' and she had to be pulled out with the help of the natives, who followed the carriage in the hope of earning more money at the next slough.
These long-standing difficulties eventually encouraged the creation of new roads, whose tentacles began to reach into hitherto inaccessible areas. Engineers like Alexander Nimmo (1783-1832), Richard Griffith (1784-1878) and William Bald (1789-1857) added hundreds of miles to the existing road network, and villages sprang up where the new roads met the coast. The roads from Westport to Leenaun through the Partry mountains, from Oughterard to Clifden by Maam Cross, and the criss-cross routes through the Sliabh Luachra area of west Munster all offer good illustrations of this process. These developments reverberated to the furthest reaches of the west of Ireland – expressed by the establishment of new settlements at western road heads, as the market economy spread along the inviting new roads.
Clifden (1815) is a prime example, and it belongs to a generation of new towns including Kenmare, Knightstown, Cahirsiveen (1822), Belmullet (1825), Binghamstown, Belderg, Roundstone (1822), Letterfrack and Bunbeg. Through facilitating the easier transfer of lime and seaweed, and therefore encouraging reclamation, these new roads allowed settlement to spread quickly from the previously more accessible coast into the mountainous interior of the west of Ireland. In the process, these land-based developments dealt a fatal blow to the older seaborne trade of the west and its multifarious flotilla of small crafts – hookers, púcáns and gleóiteogí. James Darcy of Clifden, was asked in 1844: 'Is all the corn grown in the district exported at Clifden'? He answered: 'Yes, mostly: some is sent to Westport from the Ballinakill district. They used to put it into boats formerly, and would up to this time if there were not roads. Every day they are bringing more into Clifden, as the roads are open they are putting it on cars'.
Clifden inspired high hopes: George Petrie said in the 1830s: 'This is likely to eclipse in importance both Galway and Westport'. Heinrich Brockhaus noted in 1836: 'It was a strange sight to glimpse this little town, which had only sprung up twenty years ago, and although still insignificant it seems to me to combine everything necessary for later importance. The town lies at Ireland's most western point on an excellent bay with no further towns and forms the best possible point of exit for commodities that could and certainly soon will, be produced here. I have seen the town in its infancy and may hear some day of its deeds when fully grown'.
By 1873, an American visitor, J. l. Cloud lauded its location but noted the post-Famine downturn:
One does not often find a more beautifully situated town than Clifden. It seems to have been placed by a poet whose sole consideration was setting a picturesque village in a situation where it both adorns and is adorned by mountains and sea. As we approached it I was fascinated by its beauty, and promised myself a repose of some days in this charming spot. This anticipation, however, was doomed to a bitter disappointment. As a reverse to the beautiful picture presented by the town from a distance, I found houses and people, on a near inspection, the most insipid common, and utterly uninteresting I had ever seen. The buildings, comparatively new, for the most part unpainted, had a pitiable look of cheap respectability. Indeed, it had the appearance of a town built by contract, but which the absconding contractor had heartlessly abandoned before completion, so that houses and streets seemed to be hopelessly waiting for their finishing touches.

EFF Uncovers Widespread FBI Intelligence Violations
An anonymous reader writes "EFF has uncovered widespread violations stemming from FBI intelligence investigations from 2001 — 2008. In a report released today, EFF documents alarming trends in the Bureau's intelligence investigation practices, suggesting that FBI intelligence investigations have compromised the civil liberties of American citizens far more frequently, and to a greater extent, than was previously assumed. Using documents obtained through EFF's Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) litigation, the report finds: Evidence of delays of 2.5 years, on average, between the occurrence of a violation and its eventual reporting to the Intelligence Oversight Board; reports of serious misconduct by FBI agents including lying in declarations to courts, using improper evidence to obtain grand jury subpoenas, and accessing password-protected files without a warrant; and indications that the FBI may have committed upwards of 40,000 possible intelligence violations in the 9 years since 9/11."

PSA: Change your old Amazon.com password for better security
Amazon's allegedly got an security flaw where hackers can find your password much easier than they would otherwise, and there's already a fix in place. But get this -- you'll probably need to change your password for the fix to take effect, if you haven't already done so in the last couple of years. According to Reddit users, the Amazon.com login system will actually accept any phrase so long as it begins with your password, such as "password123" when the magic word is simply "password" by itself. That apparently makes it that much easier for a computer to guess your password via brute force methods, no matter how counter-intuitive that seems, so if you simply change it immediately -- and to something other than "password," please -- you'll have much sounder dreams.

Open-source Challenge To Exchange Gains Steam
jbrodkin writes "An open-source, cloud-based e-mail alternative to Microsoft Exchange called Open-Xchange has signed up two new service providers and predicts it will have 40 million users by the end of 2011. Based in Germany, Open-Xchange has tripled its user base from 8 million to 24 million paid seats since 2008, with the help of three dozen service providers including 1&1 Internet, among the world's largest Web hosting companies. Microsoft is still the 800-pound gorilla, with a worldwide install base of 301 million mailboxes in 2010, expected to reach 470 million by 2014. But Open-Xchange is luring numerous service providers who are wary of Microsoft's attempts to compete against its own partners by selling hosted e-mail services directly to its customers."

Dr. Peter Skuben grew up in Southern California and attended Fullerton High School. He was an advanced placement student, varsity athlete, cross-country captain, and boys' state representative for his high school. After graduating from Cal Poly Pomona in electrical engineering, he worked on fighter jet radars at Raytheon for two years.
After that, Dr. Skuben returned to school to become a dentist, because that was his calling. He is passionate about interacting with and helping people, relieving their pain, and achieving a healthier and a beautiful smile for them.
Dr. Skuben graduated from the University at Buffalo School of Dental Medicine. He was class president for his graduating class. Dr. Skuben continued his dentistry training by pursuing a cosmetic dentistry externship in the Center for Celebrity Smiles, Beverly Hills, California. His next externship was an oral surgery mini-residency in Managua, Nicaragua.
Most recently, Dr. Skuben became a certified provider of the Pinhole Gum Rejuvenation Technique™. This revolutionary no-cutting, no-suturing gum grafting procedure corrects gum recession and associated tooth sensitivity on multiple teeth during a single visit with very little to no post-operative discomfort. Dr. John Chao is the inventor and patent holder of the PST procedure and has personally trained Dr. Skuben.
Dr.Skuben has also done an apprenticeship with a world renowned Implant Surgeon, Dr. William Hung. Dr. Skuben uses advanced AIDI Dental Implants which can be immediately placed after extraction and immediately loaded with a final restoration. Innovative AIDI implant coating and design accelerate bone-implant integration to an average of 3 months.
Dr. Skuben also loves to do smile makeovers, because they are such a positive self-esteem boost for the patient. He is at the forefront of cosmetic dentistry, and is a member of American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry. He loves to work with children and adults of all ages.
Dr. Skuben practices with his wife, Dr. Agarwal, who is an orthodontist. They have a little girl who likes to get dental checkups almost daily.
My goal is to provide the best patient experience with the latest dental technology in a friendly family atmosphere. Technology advances have made dentistry a very visual profession. Our 3D X-rays and graphical illustrations enable our patients to see and readily understand most dental situations that we come across. Understanding what we are up against lowers patient anxiety and makes the dental visit a truly enjoyable experience.
Another advancement that I am excited to share with my patients is electronic anesthesia. With the help of a computer-controlled electronic anesthesia delivery system, the patient's tooth can be made numb below the threshold of pain. This means you can't even feel the shot as your tooth gets numb. We live in exciting times!

Q: Assign two dimensional string array to one dimensional object array I get confused with this code
String[][] str=new String[2][3];
Object[] obj=str;

This compiles fine. because Object is a super class String is a sub class
but the following code produce errors
class Ex { }
class Ex1 extends Ex { }

class ExTest {
  public static void main(String[] args)
  {
    Ex1[][] ex1=new Ex1[2][3];
    Ex[] ex=ex1;
  }
}

but this code produce error why

A: It compiles because obj will now hold two one-dimensional String[] objects.
All the below will compile:
String[][] str = new String[2][3];
Object obj1 = str;
Object[] obj2 = str;
Object[][] obj3 = str;

A: All array instances are also instance of java.lang.Object. Therefore  all below assignments are legal. Elements of objArr1 array are one dimensional String array.
     Object obj1 = new String[3];
     Object obj2 = new int[3];
     Object obj3 = new String[3][3];
     Object[] objArr1 = new String[3][4];

UPDATE :
class Ex { }
class Ex1 extends Ex { }
class ExTest {
 public static void main(String[] args) {
    Ex1[][] ex1=new Ex1[2][3];
    Ex1[][][] exArr=new Ex1[2][3][3];
    Object obj = exArr; //valid
    Object objArr[] = ex1; // valid assignment. every array instances are also object
    Object[][] obj2Arr = exArr;  // valid
    Object[][][] obj3Arr = exArr; //valid
    Obejct[][][][] obj4Arr = exArr; //compiler error. obj4Arr is 4 dimensional, whereas exArr is three..
    Ex[] ex=ex1;  // compiler error
    Ex1[] ex1Arr = ex1 ; // compiler error
  }
}

You can not assign different dimensional array to each other, even if their element types are the same.. You can assign any array with any dimension to an Object array whose dimension is less than or equal to assigned array dimension. Because every array instance is also Object instance..

A: It makes sense when you realize that java arrays, no matter how many dimesions they have, are ... Objects in the terms of IS-A relationship. So array of objects can hold pretty much any array since every array is an Object.

A: First of all i want to highlight:
Object is the direct super class for all the array types
whether it is single dimension array or multi dimension
or array of String or array of any other derived type.

I get confused with this code
String[][] str=new String[2][3];
Object[] obj=str;

This compiles fine. because Object is a super class String is a sub
  class

here suppose we have
Object[] objArray = new Object[2];
objArray[0]= // it can hold something which is of type object
            // as we know String[] IS A Object, so I can assign it here like below
String[] strArray = new String[3];
objArray[0] = strArray ;

here I am assigning a single dimension String array as element of objArray, so we can say objArray can hold 2d String array i.e String[][] i.e.
Object[] objArray = new String[2][];

but the following code produce errors
 class Ex { }
class Ex1 extends Ex { }
class ExTest {
 public static void main(String[] args)
{ Ex1[][] ex1=new Ex1[2][3]; Ex[] ex=ex1;
} }

but this code produce error why

it is because ex[0] can hold something which IS A Ex.
suppose if Ex[] ex=ex1; is allowed
then ex[0] should be able to hold 1D array of Ex1
ex[0] = new Ex1[3];// but this can not be possible as Ex1[] IS A Object NOT Ex

This is the last week for Super Early Bird Registration for the Agile 2006 Conference. It is being held from July 23-26th in Minneapolis.
I attended the conference last year (see my recap) and found it a great conference to challenge traditional thinking on software development. While I'm not planning to attend this year, we have several team members that are planning to take advantage of the nearby location to attend this year.
If you're interested in agile software development approaches, I highly recommend this conference.

Film Renaissance
by Joe Fordham
Posted on April 20, 2014 by Joe Fordham
Cartoon copyright © John Van Vliet
Fujifilm was the first to go, in Spring 2013, when it announced the discontinuation of its motion picture film products.
A few months later, sensation-seeking headlines announced the Eastman Kodak Company would cease production of cellulose acetate film – the clear base upon which light-sensitive emulsions reside. Kodak was quick to clarify:
"Kodak has not stopped the manufacture of its finished goods in the 65mm, 35mm, 16mm and S8 motion picture film formats. Film remains an important creative choice for filmmakers, and the company continues to produce billions of feet of motion picture film every year…."
I grew up with film, I love 70mm, adore IMAX 15-perf, but I try to keep an open mind when it comes to how movies are made.
'Prisoners' / Roger Deakins / Warner Bros. Pictures
Recent productions such as Skyfall, Prisoners and Her have been stunning examples of skilled cinematographers (Roger Deakins and Hoyte van Hoytema) wielding artist-friendly digital image cameras, such as the Arri Alexa. For filmmakers Peter Jackson, James Cameron and David Fincher, the RED camera system — a loaf-of-bread-sized Lego brick of tech – has offered depth-of-field, high-frame-rates and stereographic options unfeasible on film. And then there are Hugo, Life of Pi and Gravity, Oscar-winners for cinematographers Robert Richardson, Claudio Miranda and Emmanuel Lubezki, whose digital imagery was fused at a genetic level with visual effects. I've been moved and awed by all of the above, regardless of their format.
'Her' / Hoyte van Hoytema / Warner Bros. Pictures
Film still has its place. Fine-grain motion picture film is, from most accounts, still unbeatable for fidelity and longevity in archival purposes. But more frequently, the word 'filming' is misapplied, used generically like 'Kleenex' by folks who wave their cel phone cameras around when little Billy takes his first steps, or by doofuses at rock concert venues.
I try to pick my words more carefully at Cinefex, so I made sure to address the topic of format while covering The Amazing Spider-Man 2, which I was intrigued to hear chose to shoot on film. As visual effects supervisor Jerome Chen explained:
A: I hadn't done a movie on film for quite a few years.
Q: May I ask why did director Marc Webb choose to shoot on film this time? On the last Spidey film he didn't, and I remember you mentioned it was quite a learning curve for you, back then, coming to grips with the very wide dynamic range of the RED cameras, particularly in the nighttime photography.
A: Well one of the main reasons is Dan Mindel, the cinematographer; he loves film, and Marc loves film. We all talked about it and we felt like, who knows, maybe this will be the last time we get to make a movie on film? Because back then, when we were starting preproduction, everything was going digital. We now appear to be in what we hope is a renaissance. Star Wars is shooting on film — and again a lot of that is probably coming from Dan, who is also shooting Star Wars now for J.J. Abrams on anamorphic 35mm and 65mm IMAX. Dan really is a great collaborator.
Have other moviemakers, or slap-happy media journalists given film a premature burial? Is photochemical filmmaking an anachronism? Or is there a beauty to this century-old technology that digital imaging will never capture?

One thought on "Film Renaissance"
Aamir Raza on April 20, 2014 at 12:19 pm said:
nice read!


For the people of Georgia, good news in this time of recession just arrived in the form of the strengthening of that state's lemon laws. One of the biggest changes is the time frame in which the law applies: going from one year or 12,000 miles to two years or 24,000 miles. The law also encompasses larger vehicles, raising the weight limit from 10,000 to 12,000 pounds and now including the larger pickup trucks on the market.
Such laws can be badly needed—something you will discover if you're ever unfortunate enough to purchase a lemon. Dealers and manufacturers can give a consumer an endless runaround with such vehicles, repairing items that don't actually fix the problem, telling you there's nothing wrong or worse, that the problem is actually part of "how that vehicle runs." Unless you contact and retain a lemon-law attorney, this "gauntlet" of distractions can go on for years and stick you with a non-working vehicle. Lemon law attorneys are well-versed on cutting through all the distractions and getting you the reimbursement and possible reward you are due under the law.
The best possible route consumers can take is to contact a lemon law attorney the moment they think they might have a lemon. "With the many diversionary tactics dealers and manufacturers can use—and we are very familiar with them—it is essential that consumers find protection in the law," said Taylor.
The moral is, avoid the runaround. Don't give up—get help right away.

I was asked to cast my vote for the Viva Beauty Awards 2013, the most highly regarded beauty awards across the GCC, to showcased the newest, best and most coveted products and brands in the business. You can appreciate that the Awards recognise the best of both words, mass and prestige.
The shortlisted categories are voted for by thousands of avid beauty consumers, via public voting online. Also with the help of a judging panel including make-up artist Zareen Shah and the stunning beauty blogger Huda Kattan.
Looking forward to discover the 2013 winners of each category next week. The event is held on May 22nd, Fairmont The Palm.
Here's my selection, based on my experience and preferences.
I was also quizzed on my tips and tricks and where do I splurge and save?! I actually don't splurge much! After years of buying mascara, I will not splurge on designer brands anymore. I always go back to Maybelline, currently "The Colossal Volum' Express" is my favorite. I am not loyal to many brands specially with my hair but Pantene Clinicare has really help my tress feeling less damaged right away. When it comes to Anti-Ageing Products, that's where I splurge. Currently fascinated by all the great reviews on Clarins Double Serum. I love using a body oil after showering, Palmer's Cocoa Butter Skin Therapy is a new miracle oil. This vitamin E, cocoa butter and rosehip enriched oil sinks quickly into the skin. Instantly hydrates, smoothes, softens skin and improve skin tone. It's a must, value for money.
Running alongside the Awards, during May 19- 23, is the very first VIVA Beauty Week: 5 jam-packed days of pampering and exclusive offers from some of our favourite beauty brands. Tune in to 92FM or checkout facebook (http://www.facebook.com/MyVivaMagazine) for more details!

Riccitiello: We need more time to develop for PS3 than 360
MCV Staff 1st February 2008	Business
EA CEO John Riccitiello has admitted that the company still requires more time to develop software for PS3 than it does Xbox 360.
CVG reports that, when asked if PS3's game development has caught up with the Xbox 360's, Riccitiello said in a conference call:
"Not quite. There's no doubt that Electronic Arts, along with many other publishers, had some challenges essentially meeting the technical specifications effectively on the PlayStation 3.
"Games where we led development on the PS3 platform, like Burnout, which is doing very well on the market today, we had no issue at all.
"But in circumstances where we either led with the Xbox 360 or ran parallel production, for the most part, we're still experiencing some delay on the PS3. It's a little bit more of a challenging development environment for us.
"It's probably only a third of a problem for us as it was [nine months ago]. But there still remains some catching up to do on the engineering side for the PS3."

To begin with, it's about grohe shower valve temperature adjustment. Turn off the water sources. You are able to find the valves below the sink. Or even if not, you can just flip off the major valve. Then switch on the tap, and that the abandoned water pressure has been still released. Then disconnect the distribution line by the tap. If you fail to get into the link, then you may use basin wrench. Lastly, disconnect the lift pole and then discharge the nuts beneath the faucet.
Place them onto a basket is the first thing you certainly could certainly do. And then you definitely may put the basket right beneath the sink. This means that the sink should have the open base of dressing table. Other than this, you ought to make sure the basket is fitting together with all the shower's motif. It brings homey atmosphere.

DENVER — The evening will be dry in Denver under partly cloudy skies. Temperatures will be in the 70s and drop to the mid 60s by 10 PM.
Scattered showers and thunderstorms will increase in coverage over the eastern plains ahead of a cold front that is dropping south from Wyoming.
The cold front will roll through Colorado by early Wednesday morning. Expect clouds and showers early Wednesday morning and that may create wet roads for the early commute. Temperatures will be about 7 to 10 degrees cooler, with highs in the low 70s.
The shower chances will hold for Thursday as well with highs in the middle 70s. In the mountains, highs will be in the 60s with scattered showers and thunderstorms.
A few showers and storms will still be possible Friday, especially over eastern Colorado. Highs will be in the upper 70s to near 80 in Denver and across the plains. The mountains will be in the upper 60s to mid-70s.
Warmer and drier weather will for the weekend into early next week. Expect highs in the mid-to upper 80s Saturday and Sunday! The warm and dry weather will continue for most of next week.
The aspens are turning in the mountains! This weekend should be a great time to get up to the high country and enjoy the annual display of aspen gold - especially in areas north of I-70.


And now, a cat sitting like a human. Y'know. Just thinkin' about stuff.
Why? Because anthropomorphizing non-human animals is fun and useful. Yes, useful.
There's a reason humans love videos like this; after all, our tendency to project human qualities on animals stretches back well beyond the world's first ridiculous cat photos. Some researchers even think that, without anthropomorphism, neither pet-keeping nor animal domestication would ever have been possible. In other words: your tendency to d'aaaaw at this video may actually have pretty significant survival value.

Many Americans think it's worse to vote for a Democrat (or Republican) than for a child molester. Is that a problem? | Will Bunch
Top Republicans are making it clear that it's better to vote for one of their own (who will cut billionaire taxes) who is a child molester than to vote for a Democrat. Have we hit rock bottom?
Martha Shiver, reacts to a reporter asking questions about former Alabama Chief Justice and U.S. Senate candidate Roy Moore, before a press conference, Friday, Nov. 17, 2017, in Montgomery, Ala. (AP Photo/Brynn Anderson)Read moreBRYNN ANDERSON/ASSOCIATED PRESS
by Will Bunch | Columnist
One of the most famous (albeit mildly sick) quotes in politics was popularized in the early 1980s by Louisiana's legendary scoundrel and 4-time governor, Edwin Edwards. During one of his many political comebacks, Edwards boasted: "The only way I can lose this election is if I'm caught in bed with either a dead girl or a live boy." He wasn't, and Edwards, a Democrat, indeed won. These days, you have to wonder if either of those things would even matter.
In 2017, the whole world is watching a different bizarre political spectacle in the American South, as the Republican Party just can't quit Roy Moore, its Senate candidate in a critical special election next month. This even as allegations pile up that, as a 30-something prosecutor, Moore trolled for young and sometimes underage teen girls at the mall, the YMCA and even dance recitals, and did some horrible things the times he caught up to them.
It's too late for Republicans to yank Moore off the December 12 ballot, so any action to undercut Moore — promoting a write-in candidate as an alternative, for example — would surely mean victory for Democrat Doug Jones. And the loss of one Senate vote for Republicans — who currently hold a slim and cantankerous 52-48 majority — would dim any hopes for the party's agenda of tax cuts throwing dollars at big corporations and billionaires and pennies (if that) at the rest of us. So the new GOP mantra is, "Vote for the alleged teen molester, it's important."
Alabana's governor, Kay Ivey, said that while she believes the multiple women making lurid allegations against Moore, she plans to vote for him anyway. She told the Alabama newspapers that "we need to have a Republican in the United States Senate to vote on things like the Supreme Court justices, other appointments the Senate has to confirm and make major decisions. So that's what I plan to do, vote for Republican nominee Roy Moore."
The next day, a top adviser to President Trump, Kellyanne Conway, made it more explicit: If electing a sexual predator to the U.S. Senate is what it takes to repeal the estate tax and let billionaires pass all their wealth to their trust-fund babies, so be it. "I'm telling you that we want the votes in the Senate to get this tax bill through," said Conway — who'd been sharply critical of Moore a few days early, when it was not yet clear that the GOP is stuck with him.
Trump himself then spiked that football on Tuesday night, offering a full-throated endorsement of Moore because "we don't need a liberal person in there, a Democrat," while claiming that Jones, a former U.S. attorney who famously prosecuted the 1963 Birmingham church bombing that killed four girls, is "soft on crime." As for Moore, the president said: "He denies it, and by the way, he totally denies it."
At long last, America, have you left no sense of decency? This is where we've sunk to — high-level leaders arguing it's worse to vote for someone from an opposing political party than for a man you've acknowledged appears to have been a sexual predator of girls as young as 14. The "hot take" on this is to be outraged, because it is outrageous. A government with no morality is intolerable, yet the current state of play is a complicated one.
For one thing, as much as I hate this expression, this is arguably a case where, to some degree, "both sides do it." In modern U.S. times, the notion that a politician's private morality is secondary if he's doing the right thing with his public morality — i.e., his political actions on behalf of the issues that matter to me — originated with those liberal critics of male supremacy who were willing to give Bill Clinton a pass for the way he treated women. Feminist icons like Gloria Steinem raced to Clinton's defense, in part because giving in to the other "tribe" — the president's right-wing enemies — would hurt their broader political agenda. The Atlantic's Caitlin Flanagan wrote recently that Clinton "was rescued by a surprising force: machine feminism. The movement had by then ossified into a partisan operation and it was willing—eager—to let this friend of the sisterhood enjoy a little droit de seigneur."
Things aren't exactly equal. At least on sexual misconduct, you could look at episodes like the Sen. Al Franken allegations and argue that Democrats leaders and partisans seem quicker to go after one of their own — not shocking considering that Democrats tend to be aligned with feminists while Republicans are the party of Rush Limbaugh, who coined the term "feminazi." But there's more than just sex in play here: New Jersey Democrats just this weekend tripped over each other to endorse the morally compromised but not convicted Sen. Bob Menendez.
Here's the complicated nut of it all. Despite the annoying similarities between both parties in areas like their never-ending pasta bowl of addiction to corporate money, there are also differences between the Democrats and Republicans that truly matter to their most enthusiastic partisans. One side believes in science — especially the science of climate change and the need to take urgent action — while the other often denigrates the scientific community. One party fights to end or at least restrict abortion at every turn, while the other supports expansive reproductive rights. You get the point. A lot of voters saying,why should I wave the white flag of surrender on these issues that matter to me and often affect me personally — just to make an example of one guy who happens to be a total creep.
I spoke with Jon Krosnick, a professor of political science and communication at Stanford University and one of the nation's top experts on the psychology of political behavior. He said national surveys have shown that while voters' affection for their own party has remained constant, their level of loathing for the opposing party has skyrocketed in the last 15 years or so. "If you really hate the other side, then any excuse to bring them down seems appealing," Krosnick said. When it comes to something like sexual misconduct allegations that carry some ambiguity, voters often fall back on what psychologists call "motivated cognition" — finding a reason to believe the political figures they want to believe.
Krosnick also said voters in other countries tend to judge political leaders more on how effectively they govern than their personal peccadilloes, so one could argue that when a majority of Americans broke that way on Clinton's sex scandals — giving his government a high approval rating despite disgust at his conduct — it was arguably a sign of sophistication. Casting a ballot in these scenarios, he noted, is really more a reflection of the voter's morality than the politician's morality.
Perhaps, but must we be forced to choice between ideology and decency? You could argue for changes that would make it easier for political parties or voters to punish a bad boy in their own "tribe" without rewarding the opposition party. Right now, in most states, the resignation or forced exit of a U.S. senator means that the state's governor names his or her interim replacement, even if the governor is from a different party. In New Jersey, for example, Democrats might have been less likely to rally around Menendez if not for the fact that Gov. Chris Christie would have replaced him with a Republican. What if the law required a replacement from the departing senator's party? Likewise, what if — in the Computer Age — we could make it easier for parties to replace scandal-ridden candidates like Roy Moore closer to Election Day?
But those are minor tweaks. The reality is that American politics is always going to call for some level situational ethics in the voting booth. For me, I've never been a huge fan of the Clintons, and in 1996 I actually cast a third party vote (for Ross Perot…what was I thinking?) to protest Bill Clinton's big-donor pandering, but that year I also didn't see much downside to a protest vote. Likewise, Hillary Clinton's ethics — especially her huge paydays for speeches to banks and big corporations — troubled me two decades later, but I voted for her as if my life depended on it, because the alternative was an unqualified, race-baiting, sexually predatory clown.
But I'm naive enough to think there's a drop-dead line somewhere, and a 30-something man hitting on young teens at the Gadsden Mall falls below that. Well below that. I also like to think that if my ultra-liberal "dream date" of a candidate — anti-death penalty, pro-$15 minimum wage and universal heath care, etc. — turned out to have "a Roy Moore problem," I'd still find one way or another to reject him at the ballot box. But then, I used to think that about most other people, too. I don't know what to think about morality and politics in the Trump Era anymore, other than that we're still feeling our way for the jagged absolute rock bottom.

Q: Run 2 animations at once I am creating a shooting game for children where numbers come from bottom to top and they have to click on the right one that matches the question.
I currently use this code to start the numbers moving from bottom to top
var bWidth = $('#' + id).width();
var bHeight = $('#' + id).css('top', '400px').fadeIn(1000).animate({
    'top': '-100px'
}, 7000).fadeOut(1000);

The thing is when the user gets the answer correct I then use another animation to show it is correct, and the same for wrong answers.
$(".character").click(function () {
    $(this).stop();
    if ($(this).hasClass("clock")) {
        if ($(this).hasClass("up")) {
            $(this).effect("explode", 300);
            count += 5;
        } else if ($(this).hasClass("down")) {
            $(this).effect("bounce", {
                times: 2,
                direction: 'left'
            }, 300, function() {
                $(this).slideUp('fast');
            });
            count -= 5;
        }
        $('#timer').text(count);
    } else {
        if ($(this).hasClass("wrong")) {
            $(this).effect("bounce", {
                times: 2,
                direction: 'left'
            }, 300, function() {
                $(this).slideUp('fast');
            });
            miss++;
            attempted++;
            $("#miss").html("Wrong: " + miss);
        } else {
            $(this).effect("explode", 300);
            hit++;
            attempted++;
            $("#hit").html("Right: " + hit);
            correctlabels();
        }
    }
});

My problem is that when I click the numbers there is a big pause before the second animation kicks in, and sometimes doesn't even work at all.
I was wondering if someone could show me a way around this so that it runs smoothly. Thanks!
Here is a fiddle to help: http://jsfiddle.net/pUwKb/19/

Q: Complex shipping price calculations Our website works out shipping totals for orders, every item in our database has a cubic size and there is a size limit for using courier vs freight for an item. But we get orders with multiple items and I notice it's calling things freight when not needed.
The parcel limit is 0.15m3 per courier ticket, if bigger than that they have to go by freight instead. Incidentally freight cost more on small consignments only becuase there is a minimum charge, if there wasn't, this would not be a problem at all.
I'm asking here because our programmer has a limited time before he leaves the country and this was not one of the urgent tasks we gave him, if we are to get it done at all then I need to help him in the right direction - but alas, I am not a programmer.
The Problem:
An order came in with 2 items, both 0.106 each to a local address

*

*Website calls it a total of 0.212 and makes it freight @ $42

*We can ship 2 boxes on a courier, $10 total

But needs to only use freight if any ONE item is bigger than the limit of 0.15
so, it would see that order as (0.106=$5) and (0.106=$5) = $10
For example:

*

*Suppose there was something more complex:
10 items in cart, 0.02 each. Website would work it out as 0.2 and call it freight, but we could put it in 2 boxes and pay $10

*5 items in cart, 0.01 x 4 and 0.12 x 1. Website would work it out as 0.16 and call it freight, but we could send 2 cartons - 0.04 and 0.12 costing $10
Can it do this: if any ONE item is bigger than 0.15 make it all freight, otherwise add up how many tickets needed supposing we packed into biggest boxes possible
example 2:
(0.01+0.01+0.01+0.01)=0.04=$5,
(0.12)=0.12=$5
==$10

Tricky I know, but its just maths lol, and it matters most because a ridiculous shipping price might stop an order.

A: Like @AlistairIsrael said this is the bin packing problem which is not completely trivial to solve.
However below is one solution to this problem.
If we go through all combinations of ways to package the items and try and find the minimal cost, then we have a solution. Note that this solution is a brute-force solution, and as such will quickly slow down as the number of items grow.
To find all possible ways to partition the shipment into different boxes; we can use the algorithm from this answer for that:
Translating function for finding all partitions of a set from Python to Ruby
Next we loop through all the different combinations and search for the minimum cost. The solution then works like this:
> optimize_shipping([0.01, 0.01, 0.01, 0.01, 0.12])
Shipping type: courier
Total price  : $10
Packaging    : [[0.12], [0.01, 0.01, 0.01, 0.01]]

> optimize_shipping([0.01, 0.01, 0.12, 0.15, 0.12])
Shipping type: courier
Total price  : $15
Packaging    : [[0.01, 0.12], [0.15], [0.01, 0.12]]

> optimize_shipping([0.09, 0.09, 0.01, 0.12, 0.15, 0.12])
Shipping type: courier
Total price  : $25
Packaging    : [[0.12], [0.15], [0.12], [0.09, 0.01], [0.09]]

> optimize_shipping([0.01, 0.01, 0.01, 0.30])
Shipping type: freight

The code:
COURIER_LIMIT = 0.15
COURIER_PRICE = 5

class Array
  def sum
    inject(:+)
  end

  def partitions
    yield [] if self.empty?
    (0 ... 2 ** self.size / 2).each do |i|
      parts = [[], []]
      self.each do |item|
        parts[i & 1] << item
        i >>= 1
      end
      parts[1].partitions do |b|
        result = [parts[0]] + b
        result = result.reject do |e|
          e.empty?
        end
        yield result
      end
    end
  end
end

def optimize_shipping(boxes)
  if boxes.any? { |b| b > COURIER_LIMIT }
    puts "Shipping type: freight"
    return
  end

  # Try and find the cheapest most optimal combination of packaging
  smallest_box   = 9999
  cheapest_price = 9999
  cheapest_combination = []

  # Go through all paritions and find the optimal distribution
  boxes.partitions { |partition|
    # Add up sizes per box
    sizes = partition.map(&:sum)

A: There is no code shown, but basically, you would take your orders which may be a collection such as an array, and do this:
orders = [0.01,0.16,0.01,0.01]
freight = orders.any? {|item| item > 0.15 }

Of course, there will need to be more logic, but you can now use the freight as true or false as a boolean to continue on the needed work.
I believe count will be your friend here as well.


Well I completed my S100 mini IMSAI computer, based on Josh Bensadon's JAIR8080 Board (Josh's Altair/IMSAI Replacement 8080 Board) and Don Caprio's Mini IMSAI front Panel board. These two boards make a great team. Details on both Josh and Don's boards are available on the s100computers website, if you have not checked them out yet, you should.
This sounds like an infomercial, and sorry about that, but I have been excited about this project since Josh announced his new boards.
If you are looking for a great all in one solution, or a board to trouble shoot your own system this may be the ticket. with 2 built in serial interfaces, 64K ram, 32K rom and 2 8 bit parallel ports, you would think, wow man that's crazy.... but add an SD card interface that supports up to 4 disk images for booting cpm, and you might think Damn! that's insanely great. And it's all done without the use of Micro controllers or any modern trickery. ( he he ). Add to that, Don Caprio's Mini Imsai front Panel board and it makes it all that much more fun. The replica switch paddles are awesome and feel great. It's a high quality board with high quality switches.
I'm excited because I just finished building it last night, and tonight i will be playing around with it.
Speaking of VCF MW, I think there will be three JAIR8080 systems at VCF MW this September, I'm bringing mine, Josh is bringing his and Ed, is bringing his. I'm currently collecting parts to build the ZFDC Floppy disk drive controller card (also from www.s100computers.coom) for use with JAIR8080. I know the bios code to use it was written for Z80, and that it will require some fiddling. Lucky for me Josh is building one along side with me, and he is the king of code. I have a couple of 5 1/4" drives I would like to use with it.
I love the fact that the JAIR8080 board has the built in 4 floppy drive system on SD card for convenience (and ram, and serial ports, and parallel I/O), it works great, and with the newer code and different drive formats it supports, it's even better. But I got that soldering itch again and the ZFDC board presented itself. Looking forward to completing it and messing with physical heavy noisy clunky drives.

Paying attention to portions is key. You can eat the healthiest foods possible and still gain weight if you're overeating. Pay attention to what a normal portion looks like for common foods. For example, a serving of red meat is the size of a standard deck of cards. It's easy to misjudge portion sizes — granola is considered healthy, but can have up to 200 calories in a ¼ cup serving. If you pour yourself a big bowl of granola, add milk and a banana and think you're doing your waistline a favor, think again; it adds up quickly. Be mindful of what portion sizes are for high-calorie items like nuts, bread, and cheese so that you don't go overboard.
The purpose of a cheat day isn't to completely derail the progress you made the other six days of the week. The point of a cheat day is to remind yourself that you don't need to be perfect all of the time. One bad meal every once in awhile isn't going to completely set you back, but a whole day's worth of mac and cheese, beer, pizza and ice cream will.
It is easy to forget how quickly calories from alcohol can add up. A couple of beers is the caloric equivalent of a full meal. No wonder those last few pesky pounds won't budge. For some people, cutting out alcohol is a no-go, so try to limit yourself to a few drinks a week and stick to lighter beverages. Drinks like vodka sodas, wine, and light beers are great low-calorie options. Also steer clear of sugary drinks like margaritas and martinis, which can easily reach 500 calories in one drink. If you want a flat stomach and defined muscles you'll need to start thinking of alcohol just like you do food — make better choices.
It is recommended that the average person drink eight 8-ounce glasses of water every day. This 64-ounce a day requirement doesn't consider additional water needed for exercise or environment, though, and many people reach that daily minimum. Water keeps you hydrated, satisfied, and, keeps snacking at bay. A lot of times when people feel hungry, they actually might just be thirsty and could avoid hundreds of calories of mindless snacking. Stay hydrated to keep your body energized and healthy.
Avoid these diet ruining culprits and be on a better path to a healthier, fitter you.

Conservative media figures ripped CNN's decision to fire pro-Trump analyst Jeffrey Lord on Thursday over his use of a Nazi salute during a heated Twitter exchange with the president of a liberal media watchdog group.
The ousted pundit became ensnared in controversy upon tweeting the "Sieg Heil!" slogan at Media Matters president Angelo Carusone on Thursday. Lord's explosive bouts with commentators during the 2016 election and afterward drew both widespread attention online and sharp criticism from left-leaning organizations. But conservatives have defended him.
Lord then replied, "Sieg Heil!," a message he has since said was intended to cast Carusone and Media Matters as fascists.
Despite his swift dismissal by CNN, Lord and other prominent members of the right-wing media refused to back down from critics, casting the firing as another attempt by the left to silence conservative pundits.
"Media smears Jeffrey Lord for making 'Nazi gesture' when he was clearly satirizing the left," tweeted right-wing blogger and personality Mike Cernovich, a leading voice of the so-called "alt-right" movement.
Fox News host Sean Hannity, whose battle with Media Matters over an advertising boycott of his show was at the center of Lord's Thursday tussle with Carusone, also appeared to address the controversy in defense of the former CNN analyst online Thursday.
"How sad in America that only conservatives get investigated, fired, boycotted and attacked. Double standard, & liberal silence is repulsive!" Hannity tweeted a few hours after news of Lord's dismissal broke.
Hannity, a fervent supporter of President Donald Trump in his own right, has frequently clashed with Media Matters, which he's also called fascist on air.
The liberal watchdog group began openly urging Hannity's advertisers to drop him, as they have done with Fox News hosts Bill O'Reilly and Glenn Beck before him, a move that Lord was sharply critical of online.
Yet despite the support of Hannity, one of the network's top anchors, a spokesperson for Fox News said the network would not be seeking to pick up Lord now that he was released by CNN.
"We have no plans to hire him," the spokesperson said of Lord on Thursday.
Roger Stone, a longtime confidant of President Donald Trump who leads his own conservative media platform, also lambasted the outlet over the firing.
"There is something wrong in a world in which CNN fires Jeffrey Lord but retains diva @ananavarro who is literally dumber than dog s****," Stone said, deriding CNN political commentator Ana Navarro, whom he frequently berates online. He went on to say Lord looked like "Albert Enstein" when compared to Navarro.
For his part, Lord responded to news of the dismissal with a seemingly light-hearted tweet.
"LOL!" he tweeted at 5:55 p.m., soon after the firing was publicly announced.

Boeing delivers 46 jets in January
Rama Venkat Raman, Ankit Ajmera
(Reuters) - Boeing Co delivered 46 aircraft in January, two more than a year earlier, as the world's biggest planemaker gears up for another year of record sales amid booming demand from the airline industry.
FILE PHOTO: Boeing Co's logo is seen above the front doors of its largest jetliner factory in Everett, Washington, U.S. January 13, 2017. REUTERS/Alwyn Scott
The company's shares rose as much as 1.5 percent to $409.90.
Investors and analysts keep a close watch on the number of planes Boeing turns over to airlines and leasing firms for cues on the company's revenue and cash flow.
European rival Airbus SE delivered 39 aircraft in January, up from 27 planes a year earlier.
Boeing won 43 net orders last month, beating Airbus, which did not report any wins and had 13 cancellations dominated by the superjumbo A380 aircraft.
Of those orders, 18 were for 787 Dreamliner jets, as Boeing ramps up production rate for its wide-body aircraft to 14 per month from 12 in 2018.
"There continues to be some pent-up demand (for the 787)," Jefferies analyst Sheila Kahyaoglu wrote in a note.
"The order (for the longest version of the 787 jets - the 787-10) is notable given it is the first since June 2017 when Singapore ordered 19 of the variant."
The remaining orders are for a military version of Boeing's best-selling 737 aircraft, the P-8 maritime patrol aircraft, from Britain, Norway and the United States, as well as commercial sales to unidentified customers.
Boeing delivered 806 aircraft last year, missing its target by four jets as the company was hit by fuselage and engine delays at its suppliers.
Despite that it retained the title of the world's biggest planemaker for the seventh straight year. Airbus delivered 800 planes in 2018.
The U.S. planemaker has set a target of 895 to 905 commercial aircraft deliveries for 2019.
