Alien Trespass: A Concept Film That Works Great. . . For Its Niche.
The Good: Funny, Realistically recreates '50s science fiction today, Decent acting
The Bad: Purposely ridiculous, Low appeal outside niche audience
The Basics: R.W. Goodwin directs Eric McCormack and Jenni Baird in a brand new 1950's-style science fiction film which will appeal greatly to those who love classic science fiction, but few others.
Sometimes, I need to take a few moments to reiterate my standards and separate the stuff from the stuff. I tend to review all movies on the same scale: Scary Movie competes with Casablanca and The Usual Suspects on a scale of objective standards that evaluates all films I encounter on plot, character, acting and effects. And there are perfect comedies and dramas and every other genre which have superlative ratings in all four categories. Every now and then, there is a flaw in the system which is that a film might be made that does what it attempts to do extraordinarily well, but objectively is not a great film. Alien Trespass is one such film.
My other problem with reviewing Alien Trespass is this; I went to Boston to attend a screening of the film that the movie's director, R.W. Goodwin, was present for. After the viewing, I was able to ask Mr. Goodwin several questions and I enjoyed the movie, his presentation and the opportunity to pick his brain about the making of Alien Trespass and his work on The X-Files (reviewed here!). Moreover, I "get" Alien Trespass and think that for the purpose, Goodwin and writers James Swift and Steven P. Fisher did an awesome job of achieving it. The point of Alien Trespass is to create a 1950's science fiction film today. Alien Trespass achieves the retro look, feel and sound better than the only other comparable concept film, Sky Captain And The World Of Tomorrow.
The news of the day for November 21, 1957 (presented in vivid black and white) includes a story that Goldstone Pictures, having had a contract fallout with one of its big stars, is burying the film Alien Trespass, which is said to be the greatest science fiction masterpiece of all time. All copies of the film are thought destroyed, much to the dismay of the star, who believes it is his best performance. But then, in vivid color, Alien Trespass begins with a flying saucer careening out of control. It crashes in the Mohave Desert near a small town and something inside quickly gets out. One thing that escapes is a one-eyed phallic-looking creature with a tentacle which has the ability to turn invisible and quickly liquefies a wolf.
Also aboard the saucer is a giant silver-suited entity, whose appearance coincides with the disappearance of local astronomer, Dr. Ted Lewis, who investigates the crash of the flying saucer when he realizes it was not simply a meteor as part of the Perseal meteor shower. Ted resurfaces, claiming to his wife and to local waitress Tammy, that he is not Ted. Instead, he claims to be Urp of Codar in the Drago Cluster and he is hunting the vicious Gotah. The Gotah begins attacking everyone it comes in contact with, from the police officer, Vernon, to the nanny of the local doctor. Urp attempts to convince Tammy that they must act fast, for the Gotah is about to multiply and they must get it back into stasis before it kills everyone on the planet!
Alien Trespass is appropriately campy '50's science fiction and director R.W. Goodwin does an amazing job of replicating the look and feel of 1950's science fiction films. The flying saucer rocks awkwardly as it enters the atmosphere, the Gotah is made out of rubber and Urp in his natural form is incredibly low-budget in appearance. As well, attention is paid to the set dressings and props, up to and including getting authentic science fiction movie posters from the '50s for the child's room. There is a greaser and Tammy wears a bright pink skirt which screams bubblegum '50s. Police Chief Dawson is appropriately grizzled and Officer Vernon is accompanied by a young officer who relies on him for guidance completely.
But more than simply replicating the look of 1950s cinema - though the film does not have a grainy look to it that would have been appropriate for its retro appearance - Alien Trespass recreates the sound and feel of '50's America, as captured in the cinema of the time. Characters worry that the crashed vessel could be a "secret commie rocket" and they use "gosh" and "dang" as opposed to anything stronger. The relationship between Dr. Lewis and his wife Lana is healthy; they are celebrating their anniversary when the meteor shower begins. As well, Lana provides Ted a romantic option that is presented in a wholesome and unrevealing way (this is a PG movie appropriate for anyone over ten years old - the Gotah, we were told by the director, has been known to completely scare children younger than ten). Moreover, local youth Dick Perkins and his girlfriend Penny, despite being at the Point, manage to not engage in premarital sex.
The structure of the story even has the retro feel down pat; Ted and his wife are busy living their lives when they are interrupted by Ted being possessed by Urp. Lana believes unquestioningly in her husband and is attentive enough that she notices immediately when he returns from the hills acting strangely. The film explains itself pretty well, likening Urp to a federal marshal, calling attention to his weapon and setting up story elements like Tammy using salt to slow down the Gotah. Urp explains the state of the universe in dramatic terms and characterizes Gotah in a string of technobabble that makes sense when it is broken down, but is remarkably esoteric, which will alienate many viewers.
One of the positive things that most any audience will appreciate about Alien Trespass is the philosophy. In addition to having a strong female protagonist, in the form of Tammy, the film is not lacking in the 1950's sense of optimism about the future and about space travel. Thus, the eventual Big Preachy Speech actually fits the film remarkably well. As well, R.W. Goodwin did an amazing job of directing the film. Goodwin, who directed the seminal mythology episode of The X-Files, "The Erlenmeyer Flask" (reviewed here!) applies the same level of care and detail to making a campy film as he did to making serious science fiction. The look and feel of Alien Trespass is immaculate in its attention to detail.
Also surprisingly well done is the acting. Robert Patrick gives his usual solid performance in the supporting role of Officer Vernon and similarly Dan Lauria does as well as he can in the somewhat monolithic role of Chief Dawson. Eric McCormack gets top billing as Ted Lewis and the alien known as Urp. McCormack is challenged with playing an actor who is hamming it up some as classic science fiction actors were known to. Here, McCormack manages to brilliantly portray both an arrogant actor who believes he is acting at the top of his game and the awkward performance that is that actor's performance. McCormack pulls off that balance wonderfully.
But it is Jenni Baird who steals the show as Tammy. Baird manages to balance the serious appearance of a young woman who is suddenly thrust into a position where she might be responsible for saving the world from an alien invasion, but also playing the role with a sense of comic timing that would achieve the goal of replicating the '50's sense of camp. Baird achieves the goal by playing the role as straightlaced as possible and with an earnest quality that might seem slightly over-the-top by today's standards, but was more par for the course in the '50s. Baird makes Tammy into a worthwhile and memorable heroine.
Largely, though, Alien Trespass is geared toward a very specific audience: science fiction fans who appreciate a sense of classical science fiction, despite the cheesy special effects and predictable frights. The result is a cinematic experiment that is successful, but carries with it the inherent weaknesses of plot and character that the material it is referencing held. In other words, this film is strictly for science fiction fans and in the interest of supporting independent filmmakers and a little (worthwhile) film that can, I heartily recommend Alien Trespass to the niche audience it is intended for. But for general audiences, it might be more worthwhile to check out on DVD when it comes out, because it is more of a fun flick than a movie attempting to seriously express the ideas within it.
Now out on DVD, Alien Trespass comes with an anemic amount of bonus features. With only three featurettes and an interview with McCormack and Goodwin, plus the film's trailers, this makes less use of the DVD medium than other small budget films to truly captivate an audience.
As a final note, at the film's website, there is a bridge for the opening news story (wherein all copies of Alien Trespass are destroyed) and the actual film, where two construction workers recover a lost copy of the movie. It is hilarious and worth the time of anyone who might like a good laugh and who might be swayed to go see the film from outside the target audience.

We thought it would be cool to share with you what the holiday season means to members of the SILVERSPORT® Team!
What do the holiday's mean to you?
"As 2018 adjourns, it is important to reflect upon the meaning of the holiday season.
When reminded of this time of year, does one recall the smell of freshly baked cookies filling the house (and your tummy)? Is it gathering around a fire, sipping warm cocoa and watching the classics on television? Does it elicit memories of attending a religious service? Will it remind you of holiday tunes played the entire month of December on the radio? Do you think about adorning your home with decorations passed down throughout the generations? To some, it's the long-awaited celebration they have been looking forward to all year. To others, it may evoke immense stress.
Regardless of how one celebrates, it typically involves tradition.
As time passes, these annual customs may change. I certainly have noticed as I am growing up, plans are adjusted to attend every event possible; running from one house to the next to satisfy everyone. However, as I reflect on the season as a whole, it is important to remember its original, true value.
It's imperative to enjoy each moment. We, as a society, eagerly anticipate the winter festivities all year. Yet, when the holiday arrives, we become flustered in a desperate attempt to create a picture perfect, cookie cutter, Hallmark movie holiday.
Let's meditate, live in the present, and enjoy our memories with family and friends.
Let us full-heartedly love those we cherish and plan to emanate the holiday spirit all year round, not simply on the last few weeks of December.
We hope you've had a great holiday season, and we look forward to continuing to grow and better ourselves together in 2019!

Q: Bash Script : Passing a variable to a bash script that contains quotes, single quotes. etc lets assume this is the string:
   'a',"b"

it contains both single and double quotes.
how would you pass this to a bash script as a single string ?
this is the bash script:
#!/bin/bash
echo $1

it must echo
'a',"b"

but we can not assume the string is this tiny. ultimately i plan on sending the whole
 /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf

as a string to this bash script.
so i can not really escape quotes and single quotes one at a time.

A: You can use command substitution:
oo.sh "$(cat /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf)"

This will run cat /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf and put the output (the contents of the file) into the first argument given to oo.sh. It's quoted, so it gets passed as a single argument — spaces and special characters are passed through untouched. oo.sh gets a single argument.

More broadly, though, it might be better to pass the filename into the script if possible, or to give the file contents as standard input (oo.sh < /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf). As well as being more standard, there's a maximum length all the command-line arguments put together can be, and a file could be longer than that. Even if it works now, if that file might grow bigger over time eventually passing the whole thing as an argument will stop working with an error "arg list too long".
You can find that limit with getconf ARG_MAX. The size varies dramatically: I have systems here with 2MB limits and 256KB limits. If your file will always be small you don't need to worry, but otherwise you should try another way of getting the data into the script.

Q: Zend - How to install on WAMP If there is an easy to follow instruction or tutorial that I can use to learn how to install Zend on my machine that has a WAMP installation?
The video listed
http://www.zendcasts.com/getting-started-with-zend-and-wamp-server/2009/06/
is hard to read what he is writing.
Thank you

A: Conceptually, the whole thing is:

*

*Create virtual host pointing it to the sample app

*Make sure that PHP include_path contains the path to the Zend library.
But the specifics can be tricky if you are not accustomed to it. So here is at least a little bit more color.

*

*Create a folder for your app, something like C:\apps\myapp.

*Copy a sample ZF app - like this or this - into that space so that the myapp folder has the typical subfolders like application, library, public, tests, etc.

*create a virtual host within your Apache. This is a two step process:
3.1 Modify your hosts file - on my WinXP machine, it resides in the folder C:\windows\system32\drivers\etc to contain a line like
127.0.0.1 myvirtualapp
I am intentionally choosing a virtual host name myvirtualapp that is different from the app folder name myapp to demonstrate that they are conceptually different creatures. One is a name that the OS and Apache recognize as an HTTP host; the other is a local filesystem path.
3.2 Add an entry into Apache's vhost file - typically in the Apache folder hierarchy at something like conf/extra/httpd-vhosts.conf. A minimal entry there will look something like this:
<VirtualHost *:80>
DocumentRoot "C:/apps/myapp/public"
ServerName myvirtualapp
</VirtualHost>

*Restart Apache.

*Make sure that the Zend library is copied into your c:\apps\myapp\library folder, so that there is a subfolder named Zend with the rest of the library contained inside.

*Make sure that the folder c:\apps\myapp\library is on your PHP include path. There are many ways to do this, but typically this is done in c:\apps\myapp\public\index.php. Usually, that library folder is referenced in index.php as realpath(APPLICATION_PATH . '/../library').

*Browse to the url: http://myvirtualapp/
With any luck, you should see the app!

A: Even though Zend Core is being phased out, it might be easier for you to use this instead of WAMP. Zend Core is similar to WAMP, but includes the framework too.
The Zend Server Community Edition, which is what is replacing Zend Core might also suit your purposes.


August 7 - Giovanni Malagò, President of the Italian National Olympic Committee (CONI), has suggested that Rome may still enter the race to host the 2024 Olympics and Paralympics.
Despite having to drop its bid for the 2020 Games when then Prime Minister Mario Monti said the Italian Government would not provide financial backing for the $12.5 billion (£8.1 billion/€9.4 billion) project in February last year, Malagò (pictured top) has claimed anything is possible.
He used the World Aquatics Championships silver medal won by Federica Pellegrini in Barcelona last month - the swimmer had not planned to defend the 200 metres freestyle world title she won in 2009 and 2011 - as an example.
"I did not expect the silver from Federica...but when she said 'I'm going', I realised that anything might happen," Malagò told Gazzetta dello Sport.
He added that with the right support Italy could also surprise by hosting the Olympics and Paralympics.
Despite admitting that there must be "attention on the expenditure side", Malagò suggested that things have changed since the times of their abandoned 2020 bid and explained that Finance Minister Fabrizio Saccomanni has said hosting major sports events is now possible.
He also claims to have the support of Regional Affairs Minister Graziano Delrio, who has Cabinet responsibilities for sport.
Malagò is likely to make a decision on a Rome 2024 bid after the International Olympic Committee (IOC) has awarded the 2020 Games hosting rights to Tokyo, Istanbul or Madrid at its session in Buenos Aires next month.
Rome last hosted the Summer Olympics in 1960.


Multibillion transistor System on Chip (SoC) devices, comprised of RF, analog, optical, digital and Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems (MEMS), are integral parts of ubiquitous communication, entertainment, medical, logistics and carrier products. SoC has been the enabling technology and main thrust behind the evolution of the Internet into a global communication and economic paradigm. Recent advances in systems, deep-submicron and nano process technology are unleashing new opportunities, and also new challenges. These challenges include managing design and verification complexity, EDAtools, on-chip communication, design reuse, handling inevitable faults, and the efficient integration of emerging MEMS and nano components into next generation SoCs.
For more than 30 years the IEEE International System-on-Chip Conference (SOCC) has been the premier forum for sharing the latest advancements in SoC architecture, systems, logic and circuit design, process technology, test, design tools, and applications. We proudly continue this tradition with the 2019 conference in Singapore.
The 32nd SOCC offers a three-day technical program including keynote and plenary speeches, oral and poster presentations, hot-topic panel sessions, and a full day of tutorials held by experts in the field. In addition, SOCC has a long tradition of high-class social events complementing the technical program, helping you to discuss your work with your colleagues, and enhancing your professional network.

A Practical Treatise Upon Dentition
Joseph Hurlock
Not much is known about the life of Joseph Hurlock, except that he was both a surgeon and later on in life, the director of the East India Company and spent time in Sumatra. His marriage to Sarah Hartopp in 1755 resulted in one daughter, Anne.
At the time when Hurlock wrote "A Practical Treatise Upon Dentition", in 1742, Fauchard was already working on his second enlarged edition of Le Chirurgien Dentist and Fauchard's influence was well underway in the France, Germany and other parts of Europe. But not in England. Fauchard's seminal work was not translated into English for another 204 years. It was undertaken by Lindsey for the 200th year anniversary of the 1746 2d edition of the book. For that matter, Hurlock's book is considered quite significant for England. Before his book, the first English language book dedicated solely to dentistry was Charles Allen's, 1685 book, "The operator for the Teeth" (a first edition is available in our collection).
Hurlock's book was printed in London in 1742 and it has 291 pages. According to Bernhard Wolf Weinberger, the original owner of our library, "as far as English dental literature is concerned, it began with Joseph Hurlock in 1742". He also states that "Hurlock was a strong advocate for cutting the gums of infants to permit teeth to erupt more readily and prevent convulsions". The book describes XX cases in which Hurlock lanced the gums of children presumably in distress because of teething problems. In reality all these cases had other serious systemic problems unrecognized due to the state of medicine of the time, from the effect of maternal alcoholism on fetal development, to post-natal convulsions or simply due to extreme cold weather. Many of the infants he saw end up passing away, making Hurlock draw the wrong conclusions.
Not everything in this book is out of touch with current medical knowledge. He made an early connection between diet and caries in the deciduous teeth. He also recommended that youngsters affected by teething problems be sent to the country where fresh air and better food could be obtained. Nevertheless, reading this book written in easy English, one thanks for the major discoveries in medicine and dentistry in the past 275 years.
Based in part on research done by Jenna Freda, class of 2021 as part of their assignment in Elective in History of Medicine and Dentistry, 2017-2018. Edited by Andrew I Spielman.

Q: Tasks parallelism slower than normal execution? I'm a little bit confused because when i use this code :
catalog.Elements = GetElements(myProvider.Elements);
catalog.Programs = GetPrograms(myProvider.Programs);
catalog.Details = GetDetails(myProvider.Details);

i have 4 seconds.
And when i try to do it with tasks (.NET 4.0) :
Task<List<Element>> elementsTask = Task.Factory.StartNew<List<Element>>(
    delegate {
        return GetElements(myProvider.Elements);
    });
Task<List<Program>> programsTask = Task.Factory.StartNew<List<Program>>(
    delegate {
        return GetPrograms(myProvider.Programs);
    });
Task<List<Detail>> detailsTask = Task.Factory.StartNew<List<Detail>>(
    delegate {
        return GetDetails(myProvider.Details);
    });

catalog.Elements = elementsTask.Result;
catalog.Programs = programsTask.Result;
catalog.Details = detailsTask.Result;

I get 6 seconds.
Is it normal that it is faster when I don't use the task parallelism ?
Thanks

A: Parallelism takes many forms. It depends entirely on the underlying hardware and the problem you are trying to "parallelise".
In your case, you could be getting resource contention at the CPU level. How many cores? Shared cache? Computationally expensive routines? Very light routines, so the overhead of threading outweighs the gains? Are the routines accessing shared state?
Plenty of questions. Basically, don't assume that parallel code runs faster.
Sorry this isn't an answer to your performance issues, but to do that you would need to explain what each routine is doing.
On the upside, I'll make the optimistic assumption that you have done the good thing and profiled the two pieces of code. Your profiling has told you that "parallelising" (note, not paralyzing :-P) the code yields no benefit so can be avoided in favour of simpler synchronous code.
Actually, to answer your question: yes it can be normal, but requires understanding the problem you are attempting to parallelise. Don't take this one example as an indication of performance to be expected from the TPL. I'm always eating humble pie when it comes to mistakes or assumptions I make with asynchronous code...

A: Instead of just stacking threads on your two cores by blindly creating new tasks you should use the ThreadPool.QueueUserWorkItem method, since that already does some performance tweaking like thread recycling and load balancing.

InstaVoice ReachMe – a voice-over-data solution to help users lower their roaming costs by receiving their GSM calls over data in a mobile app, while helping carriers leverage the power of data to enrich the calling experience of their subscribers.
Kirusa Konnect – an omni-channel Communications Platform as a Service (CPaaS), for enterprises that helps improve their marketing.
When was Kirusa started and by who?
In 2001 a handful of technocrats from AT&T and Bell Labs came together with a goal of making mobile phones easier to use with the power of voice.
Top VC firms like Accel, Helion, Qualcomm and Nexus have invested in Kirusa.
Kirusa caters to the needs of emerging markets in Africa, Asia, and Latin America, where Kirusa's products are used by over 100 million users on a monthly basis. Our solutions are deployed in 46 countries, 22 of which are in Sub-Saharan Africa.
We have partnerships with 50 mobile carriers including MTN, Airtel, Tigo, Orange, Vodafone, Idea, etc. In the enterprise space, we have worked with the likes of Uber, Stanbic, Unibank and Govt of Ghana to name a few.
What are your best selling points as regards your operations in the African market?
Our products have been extremely well received across Africa and our businesss is very healthy. We have always had an Africa first approach for innovation which gives us an edge over other global players who invariably struggle to adapt to African conditions. We realised early on that missed calls were a popular way of communicating in Africa and so we developed InstaVoice to enable people to receive missed calls, voicemail and voice SMS over a seamless app-powered platform. InstaVoice has gained immense popularity in the Sub-Saharan region.
We also observed that in Africa people tend to have 3-4 sim cards each and that led us to build linked numbers on InstaVoice. 40% of Ghana's population have used InstaVoice!
Our apps are hybrid-OTT in nature, allowing for a highly inclusive market penetration and retention strategy.
Did you find the market in Africa well positioned to accommodate your services?
Kirusa has innovated and disrupted technology by offering first of its kind products. While this led to us being a game-changer in voice over data solutions, it also poses a challenge of category acceptance for our products.
Sometimes it has been difficult for the target audience and various stakeholders to be completely aware of how our products will change their business – and create new consumer behaviour. This was a significant challenge we faced in Africa. When we first started with InstaVoice, we found that the mobile operators were not aligned to a high capex model for consumer services. Hence, it required us to change our entire business model for voicemails to succeed in Africa.
However, these days operators are increasingly seeking to offer new services that will generate the next wave of growth.
What are the growth plans of the company going forward?
For 2019, our aim is to scale up adoption of our voice-over-data solutions and expand in markets beyond our current focus. InstaVoice ReachMe, our hybrid-OTT roaming app is already being used by customers of MTN Zambia. We look forward to expanding the service into several other markets in 2019.
- RCS is creating an evolution in mobile messaging and will shape up to be a dominant force in the enterprise messaging space worldwide.
- Nigeria and Ghana have shown impressive growth predictions for the API economy, driven by the uptake in the number of developers and technology evangelists. We plan to leverage this by launching APIs for developers which will be available as assets under Kirusa Konnect to engage with audiences over SMS, voice, and rich media bots.
What's the latest news from Kirusa?
At the recently held Mobile World Congress 2019 in Barcelona, Kirusa announced its move into enterprise RCS solutions with Google's Program for RCS Business Messaging. As part of the program, we have built an RBM Agent for Orange and showcased a demo of the application. We believe RCS is a potent tool for enterprise communication and would be an additional avenue for audience-engagement.
RCS is a relatively new concept in Africa and the continent is comparatively unexposed to it. So far, there have been 13 launches in Africa done by Orange, Vodacom and Vodafone.

About LEGO Architecture Landmark Series
The LEGO Architecture Landmark Series started in 2008 and consists primarily of models that represent the world's most famous structures. Initially the sets were focused on major cities in the United States such as models of the Sears Tower, John Hancock Center, the Empire State Building, and the Seattle Space Needle followed by international landmarks including Burj Khalifa, Brandenburg Gate, the Sydney Opera House and dozens more. Within the subtheme the scale of the sets differ widely.
In 2009, LEGO Star Wars celebrated its 10th Anniversary with the release of its 10th Anniversary sets. But even more important, LEGO celebrated its 50th anniversary of the LEGO Brick. A number of new themes were first introduced including BIONICLE Glatorian, Space Police III, Power Miners, Agents 2.0 and LEGO Pirates was re-introduced. Some themes that were retired in 2009 by LEGO included Mars Mission, the original and highly collectable Batman sets. Exo-Force and Belville where also discontinued in 2009.

"Running with needles!" What a great name!
Thanks, I think it fits because if I'm not knitting I'm sewing and I'm always running around trying to get everything done!
What a great photo, thank you for sharing your moment with me.
How adorable...love the green sparkly hat!
I discovered you over at SouleMama and wanted to tell you about The Happiness Project going on over at my blog. Every Tuesday I host a carnival where everyone posts a photo of something that makes them happy. It's that simple. I am trying to take over the blogosphere with happiness.
Here is a link to yesterday's post if you want to check it out.
I would love it if you joined in the fun next Tuesday!!


The rehearsals for the upcoming church concert mini tour have been going on for quite a while already, and the songs are being arranged and shaped for the special team of four. J will be accompanied by Antti Hakulinen on keyboards and Timo Niemistö on guitar. The group will be completed with a cello/bass a bit later. Some of you might already know Timo from J's duo and band gigs. Timo and Antti also play together in a band called Anthriel, a progressive metal group. So, most of the musicians have a rock/metal backround, but when you really think about it, there's pretty much in common with the old and grand, mostly Northern Christmas carols and the best hard rock and metal songs that can be very majestic. This one will be something special for the musicians and the audience.


Teen Titans Go! bring you a good old beat 'em up, featuring all your favourite characters from the show. Play as Raven, Beast Boy, Robin, Starfire or Cyborg and fight your way through ten levels, fending off wave after wave of Teen Titan Go! foes, including bosses from the H.I.V.E Five, and the occasional hamburger!

Why All Pirates Fans Should Be Rooting for Kansas City Tonight
By: Andrew DomencicPosted on October 29, 2014 October 29, 2014
One autumn evening in 1992, Sid Bream of the Atlanta Braves – a former Pittsburgh Pirate – slid across home plate and scored the winning run in game seven of the National League Championship Series that took his team past the Pittsburgh Pirates into the World Series. While Braves fans erupted in cheers, Pirates fans stood in stunned silence only able to think, "Maybe next year."
Fast Forward 20 years, add a new stadium, new players, and a new generation, and the coaches, team, and fans will have the same look of disappointment on their faces following the worst collapse in MLB history by a first-place team. The Pirates once again failed to finish above .500.
Two decades removed from their last winning season, one may doubt the ability of the small-market Pirates to bounce back and finally be able to overcome the stench of losing that they has haunted them for the last generation.
However, the following two seasons proved to be more than fans could have asked for as the Pirates not only finished with a winning record, but they made the playoffs and hosted the National League Wild Card game two years in a row. Pittsburgh's small-market baseball team beat the Reds, another smaller market team, in 2013, eventually falling to big-market St. Louis in the NLCS. This year, big-market San Francisco won the wild card in front of a stunned sellout PNC crowd.
Now, the team that the Pirates fell to in the playoffs will be fighting for a World Series win in game seven against the Kansas City Royals. Every single Pirates fan should be decked out in blue, or at the very least rooting their hearts out for Kansas City to pull this one off.
Without a salary cap in Major League Baseball, teams like the Yankess and Giants have been able to grab hold of championship after championship. The last small-market team to make it to the big show was the Tampa Bay Rays in 2008. They would fall to, no surprise, big market Philadelphia Phillies.
In the last few seasons, however, Major League Baseball has seen teams such as the Royals and Pirates on the rise because they have found ways to win despite not having a massive payroll. Teams are playing smarter, with more informed bullpen decisions, dramatic defensive shifts, and modern stats like WAR leading lineup changes that equal or better a poorly managed team with high-priced, under-performing stars.
Tonight, baseball fans from around the world have a chance to witness the small market underdog pulling off a World Series win against a team who has been to the World Series every other year in the current decade, literally.
Every Pirates fan should be proud of their fellow small-market team, the Kansas City Royals. They should be excited about how far they have come, and they should be looking forward to the potential beginning of a new era in baseball: An era where the have-nots are able to throw a stone at the Goliath's of baseball. Symbolically, it only makes sense: The Royals will take on the Giants tonight, hoping to play the part small-market Pittsburgh fans yearn to see their Pirates play in the World Series hopefully very soon.

Intel provides support as part of the Warranty Commitments for Russia and Belarus
January 16, 2023 by saka
Intel has resumed driver and software downloads with Russia after cessation of business within Russia and Belarus. This was mainly part of the US sanctions imposed due to the war with Ukraine. Besides Intel, Microsoft has also been reported to allow Windows 11 update for Russia, Tom's Hardware reports.
Intel has opened software downloads to support the hardware in Russia, and Microsoft is rumored to offer similar support
A Microsoft spokesperson reached out to the site after an article was published yesterday, in which the topic of quietly reintroducing software support to Russia was brought up. Intel has been reported to confirm this There have been no recent changes to our operations.In February and March 2022, Intel suspended all shipments to customers in Russia and Belarus, respectively. In April 2022, Intel announced that it would suspend business operations in Russia.
Eight months later, Intel opened channels to provide software support for its hardware, and Microsoft followed suit. However, Intel followed US government regulations when it initially stopped doing business with Russia. But when it came to "warranty obligations," Intel needed to continue to source updates for the country.
Intel continues to comply with all applicable export regulations and sanctions in the countries in which it operates. This includes complying with sanctions and export controls against Russia and Belarus issued by the United States and allied countries. Access to resources that address driver update needs, such as the Intel Download Center and Intel Download Support Assistant (IDSA), is part of Intel's warranty obligations.
– Intel
Prior to this report, some Russian users would need to use everything from VPNs to block IP addresses, find copies of downloads through online forums, or use torrents. Software support was returned at the end of last year, so the company did not take this situation seriously. The company allows driver updates via the downloader only after the user has registered and created a profile on the official Russian Intel website.
Also Read: Pre-orders for the Mega Man Battle Network Legacy Collection are available now
Now, reports of Microsoft software updates opening up for Russian consumers have also been cleared, with this statement to Tom's Hardware:
As we previously shared, we have stopped all sales of new products and services in Russia and are complying with sanctions from the European Union, the United Kingdom and the United States.
– Microsoft
The statement continues to be repeated to the media and customers that sales of products have not been re-established with Russia. However, programs such as Windows Update are rumored to have started allowing it in the country, but no official word has come out yet, which means this is just a guess.

This is Gryffin, he is super old. I mean he is actually 36 which in Monster years is …. Well its 36, but still that's really old. He sleeps under the bed of the Dad in the family. He is more serious than the rest of the monsters. This may be because of his age or it may be due to the fact that in recent years he has gotten a little bit too big to actually fit under the bed. However, he stills loves to play and occasionally wear his pants on his head.
Hattie belongs to the mum of the family and was not very happy about having to sleep under the same bed as Gryffin due to his snoring. She loves to play dress up and would always play with the mum of the family when she was growing up. As such she has a tendency to baby the younger monster and mother them a bit. She also loves baking and acrobatics.
Bidge is a very bright monster who is obsessed with science (well learning how to fix/blow things up). He belongs to the oldest boy in the house and can often be found sleeping in the airing cupboard because the towels are nice and fluffy and not as stinky as the boys clothes that he leaves all over the floor. He has never ever ever ever ever ever ever ever not been hungry! Ever!
Bugly is green and fluffy and sleeps under the bed of the little boy who lives in the house. He is a very curious little monster and has very nearly been caught lots of times whilst trying to play with the little boy and his toys! He wants to be a good under the bed monster and is learning to be brave so he can look after the little boy who sleeps on the bed. He spends his time playing (or making a mess!) practicing his roaring and playing bubbles with his friends!
Poppi (short for Poppintop!) is the smallest and some may say the cutest monster and she is very protective of the baby girl of the house who sleeps in the cot above her. As she is so young she is still learning to do lots of things and often gets her words muddled up but the other monsters all understand her and so does the baby! In fact, they don't know it is Poppi, but the Mummy and Daddy can often hear her making the baby laugh first thing in the morning!

Share This Article: Are Your Customers Cats or Dogs?
Wonderful post- great analogy! I am in the process of starting my own business. For research purposes I have been reading successful business books. I stumbled across a great one titled, "Take the E Out of EGO & GO!" by Donna and Jerry Goven, that has taught me how to have fun while pursuing this business, and has also taught me to keep my ego out of my decisions. I am now on the homestretch and am just getting to the marketing- so thank you for the post, it really has helped me think more clearly about who I will target.
Great analogy ... I seem to attract mainly "Cats" as clients which although fun and appealing to my own nature makes for time-consuming and potentially stressful projects.
I'm currently researching ways in which I can deliver appealing services to more "Dogs" without affecting my services to the "Cats".
When this post arrived in my inbox I thought maybe Greg had lost the plot, but, as always, he was bypassing the jargon and had found a way to express an important distinction. These little emails (always short, so I've always got time to read them) get me thinking about my business in different ways. And that inspiration is always welcome.
I deal mainly with 'pedigree cats', who are not only fussy eaters, but have all sorts of special needs and desires which make life interesting to say the least. Since reading this post, I've also started looking for ways to bring in some dogs. The trick is how to do this without scaring off the cats!
Stopped by your site again and noticed that I had spelled the author's last name wrong. It is Donna and Jerry Govan.

When was the last time you gave yourself a gift? I don't mean some new clothes, accessories or gadgets. I am talking about the kind of gift that would ensure you grow positively?
During the last Christmas season, many of us reflected on the past months, where we got it right, where we got it wrong and where we could have done it better. As 2018 began, we promised ourselves change; especially in those areas we got it wrong.
The good thing about reflection is that it enables us to plan a better approach of moving forward. We learn from what went wrong and with determination, we surge ahead believing the jackpot could be just around the corner.
Like I said in the last edition of Drive Magazine, Jackpot could mean anything, depending on what you are looking for.
We all want one kind of jackpot or the other. Wouldn't it be amazing if we can gift ourselves a jackpot? But unlike the pop jackpot, we must work to get this one. Yes gifts are meant to be free, but a gift you work so hard to give yourself, you will work harder to maintain and keep and improve. You will treasure it so much that your passion will be so obvious it will even attract people to see value in it.
Some weeks ago, I dusted my copy of Start With What You Have, by Sam Adeyemi. The last time I read it was when I bought it, over a decade ago. I felt the need to reread it for some in-depth truths I knew but which have been buried under various activities.
And yes I was reminded the reason I do what I do. I was reminded the reason I left paid employment to pursue my dreams. Most importantly, I was reminded why I do not need an excuse for not achieving at least sixty or seventy percent of what I set out to achieve.
It is so true that majority of what we need to succeed is already in us. Indeed, we set out all excited and determined to live that dream into reality. Unfortunately, we get sidetracked when we take our eyes of the task. Distraction!
What we need to do as individuals, as couples, entrepreneurs, big organisations or conglomerates, government etc. is to retrace our steps if we believe in anyway, that we aren't on the path we started out. If what we are achieving today is different from the original goal, and we still yearn for that goal, then we have to do what we need to do, to get on the path that will lead us to that goal. It could be going back to school. It could be reading developmental books. It could be putting in extra hours at work or doing some pro bono work. It could be sacrificing your weekends for some training or even counseling; anything to achieve that goal.
Nothing comes easy, but the effort put into achieving that goal in the long run is always worth it when we hit the jackpot. So if you desire a change in your life, no matter the area, you will want to find out what it will take to get that change. And once you find it, you will want to gift yourself a change, by doing what must be done.


Nearly everyone who spent time in elementary school since 1995 should be familiar with Flat Stanley after being forced to craft your own two-dimensional paper hero and send him away with a family member or friend for adventures to share with your class. Well, now Deadline reports Walden Media, the company behind the adaptation of The Chronicles of Narnia series, has picked up the rights to Jeff Brown's series of books which started way back in 1964. Our hero, Stanley Lambchop, is given a bulletin board by his father to put above his bed only to have it fall off the wall and flatten him in the middle of the night.
This might seem like more of an inconvenience, but then Stanley realizes he can slip under doors, entertain himself and his brother by becoming a kite, and visit his friends by mailing himself in an envelope. One of the books even has Stanley stopping an art heist by posing as just another two-dimensional painting on the wall. As for how the character will be brought to life, the film will be shot in live-action with visual effects being used to turn the lead character into a two-dimensional hero within our 3D world (kind of like Sam Worthington). Where the Wild Things Are and Rango producer John Carls is behind the adaptation, but no writer or director has been attached to the project yet, so stay tuned.


Who Has the Greatest News Clout on Twitter?
Who has more clout in spreading the news: the New York Times, the Guardian or Wired? Such questions have been the stuff of cocktail chatter but now, thanks to the rise of Twitter and big data analytics, we have some hard evidence.
In a new study, two University of Arizona researchers use Twitter's emergence as a "serious newswire" to compare the reach and longevity of news stories tweeted by organizations like Reuters, NPR and the Washington Post. Over a three-week period last winter, the researchers looked at tweets containing story links and found that stories from the BBC and the New York Times were the most widely retweeted.
The study's authors, Sudha Ram and Devi Bhattachary, also looked at metrics like articles' half-life to determine the popularity and longevity of a news story. They found that articles from BBC, Mashable and the NYT had the longest life span, while the BBC, Mashable and Wired were most likely to publish popular articles — stories on Twitter that exceeded the average article half-life of 5.5 hours ("half-life" is based on a bitly definition that says it's the amount of time at which a link receives half of the clicks it will ever receive after it's reached its peak).
The study also looked at rates of engagement — how often a Twitter user is likely to tweet a given news source. On this front, financial publications like the FT and Forbes scored lowest while the NYT, NPR and the BBC scored highest.
The BBC's prominence can be explained in large part by the fact that is has three major Twitter spigots that frequently retweet each other: "bbcnews," "bbcbreaking" and "bbcworld." This means that the BBC has far more of what the study calls "Maximum Level" retweets — Level I is an initial retweet, Level II is a retweet of Level I and so on.
This leads to the question of what constitutes successful news diffusion on Twitter. Bursts of 1st level tweets within the first hour of diffusion (corresponding to instant reach to a large audience) or a high network diameter indicating multiple levels of exchange of news over a period of time (longer lifespan)? This depends on the objective of the news media source.
Another takeaway is that these are still early days for data and news analysis. While the Twitter study is intriguing, it is presented (appropriately) in the language of science — "edge/node ratios," "ego network details" and so on. This means it may take time for the study's implications to be translated into everyday guidance for publishers and editors.

If your dog enjoys chasing tissues, sweet wrappers and any other type of garbage that crosses his path when out for a walk, take the opportunity to teach him an unusual and very helpful trick.
Teaching your dog to collect garbage is similar to teaching him how to play fetch.
Next time you take your dog for a walk, take some tissues or pieces of paper with you. Take him to a wide open space, and then throw one tissue into the air.
Command your dog to fetch the tissue and bring it back to you. If your dog does not yet know how to fetch, start by pointing to the item you want him to bring, and repeat the command. If he does not respond, walk over to the item with a treat in your hand so that your dog will follow you. Guide him towards the item or pick it up and offer it to him until he grasps it in his mouth.
After your dog masters holding the item in his mouth, start moving away from your dog slowly while commanding him to stay. After you have moved back at least 10 feet, call your dog towards you. Give him a treat only if he returns with the item in his mouth. Only command your dog to fetch your own garbage to avoid sharp items and harmful chemicals.

Remodelling of the basal labyrinth of Retinal Pigment Epithelial cells with osmotic challenge, age and disease.
Miguel C Seabra, Matthew Hayes, Thomas Burgoyne, Silene T. Wavre-Shapton, Tanya Tolmachova, Clare Futter; Remodelling of the basal labyrinth of Retinal Pigment Epithelial cells with osmotic challenge, age and disease.
. Invest. Ophthalmol. Vis. Sci. 2017;58(8):1039.
Purpose : The basal surface of the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) is folded into a complex basal labyrinth. The three dimensional structure of epithelial basal surfaces is thought to affect the transport of solutes and water across them. The structure of the RPE basal labyrinth is perturbed as a result of aging, smoking and in several diseases. The aim of this study was to analyse and define the structural organisation of the basal labyrinth of RPE cells and determine how that structure responds to changes in local osmotic pressure, age and disease.
Methods : We used conventional transmission and serial block-face scanning electron microscopy to examine the structure of the basal labyrinth in eyes from wild type mice and a choroideremia mouse model of different ages with and without osmotic shock before fixation.
Results : We identified structurally distinct zones (stacked, ribbon-like and cisternal regions) within the RPE basal labyrinth. Spacing between the basal infoldings was affected by subtle changes in the osmotic milieu whilst osmotic shock induced dramatic remodelling of the infoldings. Quantitative analysis demonstrated a loss of structure within the basal labyrinth that increased with age and occurred prematurely in a model of choroideremia. A junctional complex crosslinks closely opposed basal infoldings while glycosaminoglycans link more distantly aligned infoldings.
Conclusions : The basal labyrinth is more structured than previously considered, responds to osmotic challenge and is maintained by a number of cross-linking elements. Dramatic and quantifiable changes in architecture of the basal labyrinth occur with age and in choroideremia, which likely compromise trans-epithelial transport.


CHELSEA have reportedly got Arsenal target Unai Emery on their shortlist of managers to potentially replace Antonio Conte.
Chelsea secured the second piece of silverware of Conte's reign in west London by beating Manchester United in last Saturday's FA Cup final.
But that did little to mask over the dismal Premier League title defence the Blues put up, as well as their failure to finish in the top four.
Chelsea have been tipped to go in search of a new manager in the summer, just as Arsenal are doing following Arsene Wenger's departure.
The latest reports from Italy indicate Stamford Bridge chiefs have got an eye on Emery, who looks bound to take over at the Emirates.
According to Italian outlet Tutto Mercato Web, Chelsea are yet to make their mind up with regards to the well-liked Conte.
But they have apparently drawn up a list of potential replacements for the former Juventus gaffer.
Luis Enrique is said to be their No 1 choice if Conte does indeed head for the exit door.
While Emery is in the mix too having left Paris Saint-Germain after two years at the Parc des Princes.
Tutto Mercato Web claim Emery is "now much closer to Arsenal", with a breakthrough believed to have been made this week.
If Enrique and Emery are unavailable in the case Conte departs Chelsea, they may have to go for their third-choice - Laurent Blanc.
Blanc, like Enrique and Emery, is currently available on a free having been out of work since leaving PSG in 2016.
Tutto Mercato Web say Napoli boss Maurizio Sarri is no longer in the running to replace Conte at Chelsea.
Sarri and Conte had been linked with a shock swapping of jobs ahead of the 2018/19 campaign.
However, Sarri will supposedly have to look elsewhere if he wants to move on to pastures new this summer.


Suffering with very dry, brittle or damaged hair? I feel your pain- after bleaching my hair from black to blonde (again!) a few months ago, mine was most definitely not looking or feeling it's best. Pretty damn annoying considering my hair was previously in really good condition, why do I do this to myself?! As a bit of a back story, before Christmas I had the 'bright' idea of dying my blonde hair black; I've had it dark before and looking back on pictures I thought it looked quite nice and would be a good chance to let my hair recover. A massive fail that turned out to be as, a few weeks on I just couldn't get used to it and so began the stressful process of lightening it again. Which means my hair is now pretty much the same colour it was but not in as good condition- not my proudest moment! Luckily for me I'm really happy with the colour now, and thanks to some amazing products it's up to about 80% of it's previous condition and feeling healthier and stronger by the week. Lets just chalk it up to a lesson learned (I know not to mess around with dark dyes again for the sake of my hair and my sanity!) and I got to discover some amazing products that might work for you too if you're in a similar situation.
The thing that sold this for me and made me want to try it was the 'redensifying' property. After you've bleached your hair and it's left feeling tangly and brittle, it's as though the weak strands literally need redensifying and so I thought this would be just the thing for the job. It's a rich balmy mask that delivers a huge amount of moisture to the hair, after a few uses of this my hair was left feeling significantly stronger and more hydrated. Unfortunately there aren't any directions on the packaging and there's not much information on how to use it on the Yves Rocher site either, but I apply it after shampooing leaving it on for five to ten minutes. When I first bleached my hair I used this after every wash, but as time has gone on and my hair has began feeling healthy again I've been saving the last bit to use once a week. I honestly can't recommend this enough, while each of the products I've used have contributed to rescuing my dry hair I reckon it's probably this one that made the most difference.
I know people have mixed opinions on Aussie's Three Minute Miracle, but as far as I'm concerned it's one of the most underrated haircare products on the highstreet. I used to use this before I started blogging, but kind of forgot about it until recently when I decided to pick up a bottle again. The effects are like a high end conditioner, even after the first time using it I could feel how soft my hair felt as soon as I washed it off. Even though my hair is healthy again now, I'm definitely going to continue to repurchase this to give my hair a weekly moisture boost. While both of the masks deliver excellent hydration I believe it's the Yves Rocher mask which has added the most nourishment and condition to the strands, and the Aussie conditoner that's responsible for making it smooth and shiny. It's a great, inexpensive treatment that you can pick up from the supermarket which actually does work.
I currently use three different hair oils in my routine. This might seem like overkill but they're all very different and have a specific function, so I feel as though while I'm still improving the condition of my hair I do need all three. The 100% argan oil and the Yves Rocher oil are my choice when I'm not going anywhere and don't mind looking like a greasy mess, I use them as a treatment/ mask rather than a typical post-wash oil. I apply the Yves Rocher oil to the scalp and mid lengths of my hair, and then use the 100% argan oil (which is the heaviest and most repairing) on the ends which tend to be the driest and in most need of some TLC. If your hair is thicker then you'd probably be able to get away with using these directly after washing your hair, but that's not an option for me. So instead I completely saturate my hair, shove it up into a greasy bun and pray no-one knocks the door! A few hours later or the next day I wash it out, and can definitely feel the difference once it's dry.
Finally, after washing my hair I apply a small amount of the John Freida's Oil Elixr through the ends. This is a really light oil which is especially perfect for fine hair as it doesn't leave it looking greasy or weighed down. Unlike the other two oils I don't think this one has contributed for improving the condition of my hair as it's not nearly as hydrating, but applying it after washing helps to protect the strands from things like brushing damage. I'm really not sold on the 'brightening' properties this is meant to have, but am glad to have an oil I can use freely after washing my hair without having to worry about it making it greasy.
Do you have any product recommendations for dry hair?
I love the Aussie products, not only are the so good for the money, they smell amazing!

The Itsy Bitsy Spider Crochet: Meet Sara and her kooky creature!
Meet Sara and her kooky creature!
I love learning about how other people come up with their crochet designs and Sara (Kermsm70) no exception.
IBS: How did you come up with this design?
Sara: I made smaller monsters for my classroom this year. Little heads for Halloween to give to my students. I knew then I wanted to do something with a body but just didn't take the time. So when summer started, I dug though patterns but couldn't really find one that worked for what I wanted.
I started with the head, just adding increases where I thought the mouth should be. I modified a body from roxycraft.com to get the legs and belly the way I wanted them.
IBS: How did you choose the colors?
Sara: I just choose yarn that I like. I like varigated yarns, but my sister says I need to work with more solids. I loved worsted weight yarns, and Red Heart is just a great yarn for creatures.
IBS: Is that a little rain drop on his belly? It's super cute!
Sara: The symbol on his belly can be whatever anyone wants it to be, I just knew he needed something else.
IBS: How did you come up with the hair?
Sara: Well, I backstitched across the head to give me a base, then slip stitched into that and then single crocheted until I got the height I wanted. I was trying for spikes when I got the loops, but decided they sort of fit him. I wish now I had thought to write down exactly what I was doing but didn't so he will be one of a kind.
Now, for the BEST PART of this post.... (not that the interview wasn't really awesome!) You can WIN Sara's creature!!! Just visit Sara's blog, Bouncing Off Yarn Walls, for details on what you need to do to take this little cutie home with you! And, good luck!
Karla, thank you so much. I just love the crochet blog community because everyone is so nice and excited about everyone else's work!!
Sara -- it was a pleasure! I love seeing how people create their own crochet styles and can't wait to see what's going to come off your hook next!
Amy -- I've missed seeing you around! It's so nice to have to back in the blog-o-sphere!

You can write your own review of the AM-COM ATAS-100 Controller.
This device is designed to directly control a Yaesu ATAS-100 antenna by putting the required DC control voltages on the coaxial cable. The ATAS-100 was designed to work with various Yaesu radios, such as the FT-100 and FT-857. Different voltage ranges extend or retract the antenna, eliminating the need for a ground isolation as would be required if positive and negative voltage were used to run the antenna drive motor in different directions.
My unit cost me $1 at a hamfest, sold by a ham who seemed happy to be rid of it. I believe they cost about $80 originally--not unreasonable. It was in pristine condition, apparently never used much. A brief inspection revealed why. The solder connection to the inner conductor of one of the SO-239/UHF coaxial connectors had never been properly made, leaving the component leads simply pressed into the hole. No real RF or DC connection existed. It is possible the device never worked at all.
Construction is not even up to MFJ standards. The components are not on a circuit board, but wired using what some called "ugly construction." It is obvious that the makers of the device were unconvinced of the value of keeping component leads short in RF circuits. It does not appear that any leads were trimmed at all. Some of the insulated DC leads touched the RF leads, inviting arcing and shorts via wear-through.
The selection of component values is also questionable. The feed-through capacitor in the coax biasing circuit is .0068 uf at about 100 volts, when something like .05 uf or even .1 uf, at a higher voltage would have been more suitable to provide a very low impedance in the RF path at 40 meters. It almost seems as if a component selection error had been made during construction. The blocking choke seems adequate, although I did not test to see if it had any unwelcome resonances at operating frequencies, as sometimes occurs.
A single voltage regulator with no heat sink, soldered directly to a toggle switch, provides the 8 volts needed to retract the antenna. The extension voltage (~12 volts) is simply fed through from the power supply. There are no fuses in the device. The antenna requires only about 180 ma to operate normally, but that does not mean the voltage regulator should be left hanging in the air, as it literally is. The stall current of the ATAS-100 is about 0.6 amp, meaning that the unsunk 8 volt/1 amp regulator is going to overheat quickly at the end of the antenna travel. It is up to the operator to be careful. Additionally, the 8.1 volts measured at the coaxial cable output is just under the maximum retraction voltage specified for the ATAS-100. A six-volt regulator would have been more suitable.
In conclusion, the AM-COM ATAS-100 controller is potentially a very useful device for those with an ATAS-100 (or ATAS-120) antenna but no corresponding Yaesu radio. However, the usefulness of the AM-COM device is severely undermined by the very low quality construction and iffy component selection. If one is found used or at a hamfest, an hour or two of work could put it in good working order.
