SEASON'S SCREENINGS FROM A CARTOON ABOUT MOSES TO A RE-'PSYCHO'D THRILLER, HERE'S OPINIONATED GUIDE TO THE HOLIDAY FILMS
By LEWIS BEALE
All you need to know about this year's fall film season is that the biggest hit of the past few months was an action-comedy starring a Chinese martial-arts maven and his motor-mouthed African-American sidekick. That's right, movie fans. "Rush Hour," featuring Jackie Chan and Chris Tucker, surprised just about everyone by bursting out of the starting gate and grossing more than $100 million within five weeks of release. In so doing, it blew away a bunch of films with bigger stars and budgets, including "Holy Man" (Eddie Murphy), "Ronin" (Robert De Niro), "One True Thing" (Meryl Streep), "What Dreams May Come" (Robin Williams) and "Beloved" (Oprah). The success of "Rush Hour" also guarantees that Chan and Tucker will surprise, surprise! command enormous salaries for their next feature appearances. Fall isn't exactly the hottest season of the year for the film industry, but the success of the Tucker-Chan flick, a piece of mind candy if there ever was one, knocked a lot of folks in Hollywood for a loop. Never fear, however: The period between Thanksgiving and New Year's Day is when the studios release a lot of their bigger, more prestigious productions, particularly those they hope will be remembered at Oscar time. This year is no different, as a slew of holiday films fight for viewership and awards. Meg the magnificent We've been big fans of Meg Ryan ever since she and Billy Crystal performed the horizontal mambo in the romance classic "When Harry Met Sally . . . .
" Several years later, our love deepened thanks to Ryan's long-distance romance with Tom Hanks in "Sleepless in Seattle.
" Now the Ryan-Hanks team is back in "You've Got Mail," opening Dec. 18. Based on the 1940 James Stewart classic "The Shop Around the Corner," the flick is about two business rivals who don't realize they're carrying on an Internet romance. Beyond the obvious star power, here's a reason to believe "You've Got Mail" will be a winner: All three Meg Ryan romances were written and/or directed by Nora Ephron. GET OUT YER HANKIES We all like a good cry, which is why pictures like "Dark Victory" exist. So you can count on the cinema world to keep producing films that make Kleenex a must-have at the theater. This year is no different. "Theory of Flight," opening Dec. 23, stars Helena Bonham Carter as a victim of Lou Gehrig's disease who asks Kenneth Branagh to help her lose her virginity before she dies. It's a comedy (honest!), but also a major weepie. Tear ducts and disease also constitute part of the appeal of "Hilary and Jackie," opening on Christmas Day. The flick, starring Emily Watson ("Breaking the Waves") and Rachel Griffiths, is about the relationship between the late cellist Jacqueline du Pre and her sister. Since du Pre died of MS, you know this will be a major sob story. DECISIONS, DECISIONS Filmgoers will have their work cut out for them on Christmas Day, when a slew of big pictures opens. What to see, what to see? Will it be "The Thin Red Line," based on "From Here to Eternity" author James Jones' famous World War II novel about the battle for Guadalcanal? The flick not only features a killer cast Sean Penn, Woody Harrelson, John Cusack, George Clooney, John Travolta but marks the return to film making of legendary director Terrence Malick, who hasn't been behind the camera since his 1978 classic, "Days of Heaven.
" Or will movie buffs flock to "A Civil Action," based on the best-selling nonfiction work by Jonathan Harr? The book details a long and complicated civil case in which some Massachusetts families sued two companies they believed were polluting the ground water in their hometown. The film, directed by Steven Zaillian ("Searching for Bobby Fischer"), stars Travolta and Robert Duvall as rival lawyers in the case. Then again, those not interested in such heavyweight fare might opt for "Stepmom," in which Susan Sarandon, as Ed Harris' ex-wife, and Julia Roberts, as his current flame, duke it out over the parenting of Harris and Sarandon's kids. Director Chris Columbus ("Mrs. Doubtfire") knows how to make commercial films, so this could be a biggie. Say wha? Every once in a while, we ask ourselves some of the cosmic questions. Like when will Michael Jackson and Prince finally grow up? Why is Bill Parcells so surly? And who in their right mind would want to remake Alfred Hitchcock's classic thriller "Psycho"? You might ask director Gus Van Sant ("Good Will Hunting") that last one, since he's gone and done it: made a shot-for-shot, color version of the 1960 film. This time out, Vince Vaughn (pictured) plays Norman Bates and Anne Heche is the Janet Leigh character, who gets hers in the famous shower scene. The flick opens Dec. 4, and until we see it, all we can think to say is "Why?
" GREED IS GOOD (OR IS IT?) In "A Simple Plan," opening Dec. 11, Bill Paxton and Billy Bob Thornton stumble upon a small plane that crashed in the woods. The aircraft contains several million dollars in cash possibly drug money but instead of turning it in to the authorities, the two decide to hold onto the loot. Things go downhill from there. Based on Scott Smith's best-selling novel, director Sam Raimi's movie is downbeat to the max. But it's gotten terrific advance word and was a critical and audience favorite at the Toronto International Film Festival. Animation wars Jeffrey Katzenberg is the executive who revived the Disney animation franchise with such films as "The Little Mermaid" and "The Lion King.
" But he left the studio acrimoniously and, with billionaire buddies David Geffen and Steven Spielberg, founded Dreamworks. So now Katzenberg wants to prove that some company other than the Mouse Kingdom can produce animated features millions of people want to see. Which is why "Prince of Egypt," opening Dec. 18, is receiving the kind of hype usually reserved for space shuttle flights with septuagenarian senators. Will audiences flock to see a PG-rated cartoon about Moses? Stay tuned. Porkers we love Call us crazy, but the year "Braveheart" won the Oscar as Best Picture we thought "Babe" was easily the best film nominated. So what if the movie contained only one significant human character (played by Oscar-nominated James Cromwell)? It was charming, innovative and featured an absolutely adorable little piece of porcine pulchritude. Plus, who can ever forget those field mice singing "Blue Moon"? Which is why, even though we tend to distrust sequels, we are eagerly awaiting "Babe: Pig in the City," opening Wednesday. This time out, our favorite piece of bacon on the hoof sets off for the big city, where he encounters a new assortment of animal friends. SLEEPERS J ust because the studios roll out a lot of their big guns around the holidays doesn't mean there isn't room for smaller, sometimes more satisfying works. Take "Rushmore," opening Dec. 11 for a one-week Oscar-qualifying run. This wonderfully droll comedy, a hit at the New York Film Festival, stars newcomer Jason Schwartzman as a private school student who falls in love with a young teacher, then discovers she's having an affair with the local tycoon. Bill Murray plays the depressed millionaire, and it's the best performance of his career. Then there's "Little Voice," also opening for a one-week Oscar qualifying run (on Dec. 4), in which a sleazy talent agent (Michael Caine) discovers a shy, retiring Englishwoman (Jan Horrocks) who can do bang-on impressions of Judy Garland, Marilyn Monroe, Billie Holiday and others. Brenda Blethyn (Oscar-nominated for "Secrets and Lies") steals the film as Little Voice's blowsy mother. It's a hoot. And for those who like their film making relentlessly downbeat, you can't do better than director Paul Schrader's "Affliction," debuting Dec. 30. It's a dysfunctional-family tale based on a Russell Banks novel, in which small-town lawman Nick Nolte in an Oscar-caliber performance undergoes a severe personal meltdown. James Coburn is terrifyingly good as Nolte's abusive father. Sissy Spacek and Willem Dafoe are also in the high-powered cast. It's the perfect movie for the most suicidal season of the year. TRAILING A 'STAR' The hype is with us. The biggest attraction of the holiday movie season may actually be a 130-second trailer for a film that doesn't open until May 21. Six months before its theatrical release, the new "Star Wars" film "The Phantom Menace" is sending fans into a frenzy. Anticipation for the trailer and film is akin to "a dormant volcano," says Joshua Izzo, associate editor of Star Wars Galaxy magazine. "You can feel the steam and the tremors of the Earth getting ready to explode in this cacophonous roar. It's amazing how the fans react to anything [having] to do with the prequels.
" He's not blowing smoke. At a recent public screening of the trailer which had a "sneak preview" on Tuesday and has been running in selected theaters since Friday the audience greeted the advance peek with excited verbal comments and loud applause. `The Phantom Menace" is the first of three "Star Wars" prequels. It was written and directed by George Lucas, who has not directed a film since the original "Star Wars" was released in 1977. The new movie takes place before the birth of Luke Skywalker, and features the friendship between the young Obi-Wan Kenobi (played by Ewan McGregor) and 9-year-old Anakin Skywalker (Jake Lloyd) who becomes Darth Vader. The space adventure also stars Liam Neeson and Samuel L. Jackson as Jedi knights and Natalie Portman as Princess Leia's mother. Returning from the earlier films are R2D2, C3PO and Yoda. The trailer opens with something emerging from a swamp, then a title card reading: Every Generation Has a Legend. Next is a pan across a desert to a small parked spaceship, and another title: Every Journey Has a First Step. Then there is a breathtaking shot of a city with a palace, and the third title card: Every Saga Has a Beginning. The trailer even provides glimpses into the film's story line: Neeson is seen introducing Anakin to the young Obi-Wan; Yoda is shown saying "Fear is the path to the dark side.
" `The Phantom Menace," says Izzo, "will be a lot [like] the first trilogy. It will have a lot of the same storytelling, themes and undercurrents.
" The first three "Star Wars" films "Star Wars," "The Empire Strikes Back" and "Return of the Jedi" are the most lucrative franchise in movie history, earning close to $8 billion in box office revenue, video sales and merchandising deals. This windfall shows no signs of abating. Last year, Hasbro and Galoob Toys signed licensing contracts for the prequels. PepsiCo has pledged to promote the first prequel to the tune of $2 billion. And last May, Lego signed on to create a series of "Star Wars" construction toys. A few "Phantom Menace" tchotchkes are already out. A "battle droid" has been flying off toy store shelves, and Hasbro has a mail-in promotion for an action figure of Jedi master Mace Windu, the Samuel L. Jackson character. George Lucas' company, Lucasfilm, will not comment on specific plot points or how many licensing arrangements the new film has. But when it comes to describing the enduring appeal of the series, Lucasfilm spokesperson Rebecca Caruso says, "It's the classic fight of good vs. evil, friendship and loyalty, and all those good things. It's a simple story that touches many people.

You've probably noticed an increase in local coffee roasters and shops in your neighborhood. It's no surprise, specialty coffee is the fast growing segment of the coffee market. The promise of specialty coffee is better farm-to-cup quality which means coffee grown by smaller farms and roasted in smaller batches. The result is greater attention to detail throughout the process and a better cup of coffee vs. a mass-produced commodity where the goal is highest output at the lowest price. By definition, small lots or micro lots produce less coffee at harvest. If the small lot has a great reputation, their coffee will sell at a major premium and go to the highest bidder which is great for the farm and its workers. As the price of small-batch coffee roasting equipment has decreased, there are more local coffee roasters in the marketplace looking to buy coffee from small lot farms. This adds fuel to the fire driving up the price of small-lot coffees. Furthermore, small batch roasters by definition have a limited output of coffee per day. With their output fixed, a popular local roaster can charge more for their roasted coffee. So in short: low yield harvests from high quality small lots, an explosion of local roasters, a limited output of small batch roasted coffee from local roasters, and rising demand for better farm-to-cup coffee is driving up the price of your not so average cup of joe.
In the context of large supermarkets, the cost of coffee is almost always directly correlated with the degree of marketing foo on the label. You pay extra for certifications and the terms that come with them: fair trade, shade grown, organic, etc. As we've said time and again, these terms are not generally correlated with quality.
In a cafe setting, the cost of prepared coffee is all about labor. When measured in terms of their cost per pound, Espresso drinks top out at over $50 per pound. Here, customers pay for the convenience of preparation, the cost of other ingredients like milk, the ubiquity of access, and the time-metered use of a costly espresso machine (and the training required to operate it).
In smaller cafes, and among small-batch roasters, higher prices are all about the bean and its quality, and that cost is a function of paying smaller farmers for micro lots of green coffee (i.e. pre roasted). Competition for higher quality beans is becoming ever stiffer, and the scarcity of great crops will only grow over time based on worldwide agricultural struggles with weather, climate, predation, and disease.

Q: Prevent HTML 5 Video from downloading the whole file at once I wonder if its possible to download just the first 5 chunks (5MB) of a html5 video and so prevent to have high traffic bills when showing videos >100MB

A: the only way to have some control over this is with the preload attribute on the video tag. Sadly this is implemented differently in different browsers (eg auto may download 2s, 25s or the whole video depending on the connection).
Solutions like FMS or IIS SmoothStreaming allow more control, but require plugins (Flash or Silverlight) to manage that experience
preload='none'
From the spec, "Hints to the UA that the user is not expected to need the video, or that     minimizing unnecessary traffic is desirable."
preload='metadata'
"Hints to the UA that the user is not expected to need the video, but that fetching its  metadata (dimensions, first frame, track list, duration, and so on) is desirable."
preload='auto'
"Hints to the UA that optimistically downloading the entire video is considered desirable."
preload or preload=''
The preload attribute is specified but no value is given. Specifying the empty string is the same as specifying "auto".

What is Codification?
Codification makes it easier to find specific information in law books.
Written By: Mary McMahon
Edited By: O. Wallace
Codification is a process in which laws are organized in a logical way. Governments are continually adding to the law and amending existing laws. This means that viewing laws purely chronologically could quickly become daunting, especially in countries with legal systems which are very old. Codification allows laws to be gathered together in groups which can be bound in a codex or law book, allowing people to look up specific areas of the law much more easily because similar laws are grouped together. The codification process is continuous and can also be accompanied by recodification, which is periodically necessary to clean up existing legal codices.
One way to present laws is in the form of session laws, which are arranged in chronological order. In fact, most governments do maintain session laws because they provide an important record of when legal changes were made and can be valuable historical documents for people interested in studying the history of legislature and the law. However, looking up specific areas of the law in session laws can be a nightmarish task when laws and their amendments may be separated by considerable timespans, and other laws which pertain to them may be scattered elsewhere in the text.
Hence, most governments also codify. When laws are codified, they are grouped together under specific chapters, titles, and so forth within the law so that they can be found, and any amendments and changes to the law are attached directly to it in the codex during the codification process. In recodification, redundant, outdated, and erroneous laws are struck from the books so that the codex contains a clear, cohesive grouping of laws which do not contradict each other.
The process of codification can be time consuming. Usually when new laws are proposed, lawmakers note the area of the code into which they should be inserted so that once they are passed, they can be easily codified. Likewise, new case law also references the areas of the code affected so that it can be codified and cross-referenced. Because law books are continuously updated with changes and new laws, they must also be regularly reprinted so that people have access to the latest legal standards and statutes.
Legal scholars participate in codification, as do people who perform research for legislators to help them determine where new laws need to be inserted. Many governments have established electronic law databases which allow people to access the most recent version of the law, and these databases are an increasingly popular alternative to costly physical codices which need to be routinely replaced.

Now all you need is rocket boosters on that baby and you can zip around town scaring everybody.
I like how you think. Gonna have to get machine guns too, so I can do crimes then getaway with allllll da loot!
@Leave a Whisper - here's a picture of my tea towel as requested.
I love it so much. Although there's a bit of a typo as far as I'm concerned. I think it should read : "All you need is love OF a Shih Tzu" because let's be real, I can survive without a man but my babies. No. I will always need a Shih Tzu in my life now.
I got a PS3 and about twelve games this year, and a knife.
Well maybe they mean love in general. Family, friends, other pets.
My brain is sleep deprived, so I now wonder if there is a tea towel that says All You Need is Love and a Tarantula or Love and an Iguana?
I'm slightly (very) jellies of your Haven Bay. I needs her so bad.
Theses are all for the PS3, also I bought three of these.
Happy Christmas and merry new year to all my awesome pony people!!!
Tres' cool. Which one did you start with?
I've been consumed by my Switch. I kinda forgot how much I love Nintendo... I've literally played Let's Go Eevee for the entire day today. I haven't done that since my bff and I decided to complete DK in a day when it was first released for the Wii.
Haven't really messed with any of them yet only played long enough to see if they worked, but I'm thinking ether The last of us, or Borderlands.
We bought him the system and three games, his big sister bought him what? A dozen? He totally cashed in.
Bean counters used to be the exchange monitors. They turned into moneychangers.
It also has connotations from the Jack and the beanstalk story.
I kinda specialize random useless information.

Santiago, Chile 29 November 2016 - From November 28-29, in Santiago de Chile, the "International Conference on Crime Prevention and Reintegration of Children in contact with the Law " took place. This event was co-organized by the Ministry of the Interior and Public Security, the Ministry of Justice and Human Rights and the National Council for Children of the Government of Chile; the Office of the Special Representative of the Secretary-General on Violence Against Children (SRSG VAC) and UNICEF Chile.
This event was sponsored by the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC) and the International Juvenile Justice Observatory (IJJO) and it was designed as a concrete contribution to the elaboration of the UN Global Study on Children Deprived of Liberty, particularly in identifying innovative practices and policies that aim at avoiding the deprivation of children's liberty.
The conference was informed by national experiences on crime prevention and reintegration from Argentina, Chile, Colombia, Guatemala, Brazil, México, Jamaica, Panamá and Uruguay. It also benefited from the contributions of leading academic and professional experts from around the world, including, Prof. Barry Goldson (University of Liverpool); Ms. Anna Giudice, United Nations Office for Drugs and Crime (UNODC); Mr. Robert Muggah (Igarapé Institute, Rio de Janeiro); Ms. Esther De la Rosa (International Network of Journalists with a Gender Perspective, New York); Prof. Ton Lieffard (Leiden University); Prof. Susan McVie (University of Edinburgh); Mr. Cédric Foussard (International Juvenile Justice Observatory-IJJO); Prof. Kevin Haines (Swansea University) and; the SRSG VAC, Ms. Marta Santos Pais, among many others.

During her visit to Chile, the Special Representative met with Chilean President Michelle Bachelet. Both Ms Santos Pais and Ms Bachelet held a conversation with boys and girls from San Joaquin, in Santiago de Chile. Children shared their views, fears and hopes about a society free from the fear of violence. After this exchange, President Bachelet, the SRSG VAC and a group of children reaffirmed their commitment towards the High Time to End Violence against children initiative.
Ms. Santos Pais was also invited to participate as the main speaker at the inauguration of the XIX Course on the Legal Protection of the Rights of the Child that is organized every year by UNICEF and Diego Portales University. On this ocassion, 64 prosecutors, defendants and lawyers from Argentina, Uruguay, Paraguay, Bolivia, Panama, Dominican Republic, Colombia, Mexico, Venezuela and Chile participated in the Course. The SRSG VAC gave a presentation on the main challenges to preventing and eradicating violence against children in the field of criminal justice.
The SRSG VAC´s visit to Chile was also an opportunity to take part in a forum with key representatives of the corporate world in the country. Ms. Santos Pais was invited to debate and discuss some of the main challenges currently faced by the Group of Companies united for children (Grupo de Empresas Unidas por la Infancia –UPPI), in the specific field of prevention of child labour and violence against children.

Mountain Fold is pleased to announce Pupils, a two person show by Daniel Higgs and Asa Osborne. Daniel Higgs and Asa Osborne, have been musical collaborators in the band Lungfish, and later in their duo The Pupils, for over 20 years.
Through their music and friendship a continuous "show and tell" exchange of their visual work has developed. Superficially, their work appears to be very different, and yet, due to their decades-long exchange of ideas a direct influence is in evidence. Perhaps the most striking similarity is that both artists have created pieces that emanate an energy or emotion rather than evoke one. Artists do not produce in isolation, this duo show is an exhibition aimed at presenting pieces that have been created side by side within a friendship.

Best Late Night Entertainment: Lucas Gerace aka The Most Magnificent Gerace.
What do you do when you're drunk and this guy in a tiny room at Club Charles makes lemons and limes appear suddenly as if out of thin air? You freak out and yell, then tip him extremely well. We've seen Gerace's act numerous times during the week in the small red room at Club Charles and we're blown away by his magic every time. Gerace, a member of the Baltimore Rock Opera Society, has been doing his act late at night at Club Chuck for about a year now. His interactive magic has stunned our skeptical friends from both NASA and local media outlets into silence. Gerace dresses like an Edwardian junk dealer and performs like a master. We have no idea how he makes things appear and disappear—and this is after him allowing us to look under the table. And he does it through the boozy haze of the numerous cocktails he consumes throughout the night.

David Gerrold has been sitting alone in a room and talking to himself for more than fifty years. If he hears anything good, he types it up. When he has enough words, he sends it to an editor. Occasionally some editor somewhere is so desperate for something to publish, he sends David Gerrold a check. This proves that David is not crazy for sitting alone in a room and talking to himself.
This poor man could have had a real career as a used car salesman, but instead, all that typing has resulted in a forest-killing avalanche of short stories, novelettes, novels, articles, columns, non-fiction books, television scripts, film scripts, stage plays, comic books, and mangas, several of which have been nominated for awards and a couple of which have actually won trophies.
His TV work, if you must know, includes episodes of Star Trek, Land of the Lost, Twilight Zone, Babylon 5, and Sliders. (He created tribbles for Star Trek and Sleestaks for Land of the Lost.)
Some of his novels have sold well enough to be considered best-sellers. These include The Man Who Folded Himself, a sexually explicit time travel story, and When HARLIE Was One, a thoughtful exploration of artificial intelligence. His novels on ecological invasion, A Matter For Men, A Day For Damnation, A Rage For Revenge, and A Season For Slaughter, have developed a fanatic cult following some of whom have threatened mayhem while waiting for the fifth book.
In 1994, Gerrold shared the adventure of how he adopted his son in The Martian Child, a semi-autobiographical tale of a science fiction writer who discovers his adopted child might be a Martian. The Martian Child won the science fiction triple crown: the Hugo, the Nebula, and the Locus Poll. It was the basis for the 2007 film "Martian Child" starring John Cusack and Amanda Peet. (The book is better.)
Various editors have said that Gerrold's writing strengths are his readable prose, his easy wit, his facility with description, the accuracy of his science, and the passion of his characters. As long as the check clears the bank, Gerrold refrains from questioning their judgment.

Flying from Nepal to Thailand, we dropped our backpacks in Bangkok and headed to the resort town of Pattaya.
I was looking forward to the warmth of the sea after days of seeing nothing but the crazy-crowded urban cities and the misty mountains of Nepal. I was really looking forward to plunging into the azure waters of Pattaya and rinsing myself of the grime of the city. But alas, what greeted us on Pattaya instead was a beach over-crowded with umbrellas and a very uninviting sea.

U.S. Air Force Commissioned Officer Training / Phase 02: Development
The Orientation Phase was their
introduction to the Air Force. Very basics of teamwork. And the development phase is them applying those lessons that they've learned about teamwork and starting to
slowly become leaders. So the development phase includes something like Project X. And Project X, it's an obstacle course and there's about 22 obstacles and what we
do is we'll break the trainees down into small flights about 14, 15 people in a
flight. And then we put them into these obstacles and then we say "we're a team, we
expect you to manipulate this obstacle and get through this whole process." So
they could be given anything from a barrel to boards, rope and they're
expected to use all the tools that you've been given, everything that you've
learned in your classrooms, everything that your flight commanders, your
instructors, have been teaching you and now apply those principles. We want them
to attack these scenarios and think as an officer in the United States Air
Force and see what your strengths are, your weaknesses are in this controlled
environment. WELPs are the Wingmen Expeditionary Leadership Problems, is a
specific phase in the training where we allow the trainees to actually step out
and for the first time be a leader of their team. We designate an individual in
their team to be a leader. We take them out to the field and it's a mock
deployment environment where they've got to be able to do some basic land
navigation, they have to provide their team with security, and their leader has
got to be able to take his or her team through this process. We give them a
basic set of instructions and we say "here's what we expect of you" and then we
evaluate them. If they don't get feedback they don't know what their strengths and
weaknesses are and that's how they grow through this process, we come better
leaders in the Air Force. The Tattoo Ceremony is a symbolic event. It's a
change of command ceremony and it really is a passing of the guide on from the
staff to the trainees. And from that point forward we say "we're
gonna slowly step back and we're gonna expect you to step up, start holding each
other accountable, start making those leadership decisions." From day one through the end of Training Day 23, we expect them to gradually take
on more and more responsibilities and this is a very symbolic piece of that.

Providing support, encouragement and Sabbath rest to Christian leaders.
Innkeeper Ministries, Inc. has been formed to provide tangible support through the use of quality facilities and services that meets the physical, emotional and spiritual needs of Christian leadership.
Innkeeper Ministries, Inc., is a ministry dedicated to providing, free of charge, excellent facilities and services that encourage, support and edify Christian leadership in their godly pursuits.
To provide an environment that frees leadership to focus upon God and His ways.
Phase One: Using quality accommodations that provide a relaxing atmosphere, ministry couples will experience encouragement and Sabbath rest.
Phase Two: Providing a facility that delivers a unique, as well as a spacious and functional environment for rest and solitude for the weary and worn ministry couple that needs complete getaway.
This is being accomplished through the use of the Eagle's Wing Manor.
Isaiah 40:27-31 refers to God's strength given to His children which allows them to raise above the issues and troubles of today.
Those who depend upon the Lord will "exchange" their weakness for God's strength.
The desired prize is that of walking daily in His strength which is the mainstay of the Christian experience.
Phase Three: Using the element of seclusion, pastoral and/or ministry leadership couples in need of an extended time of renewal will experience a much needed time together.

Q: Non-blocking version of Popen.communicate() in Python Subprocess module I'm trying to execute multiple commands in parallel in two shells spawned in a Python program. I've tried to use popen.communicate(), however this method is blocking and does not allow me to run them simultaneously. I currently have.
proc_1 = subprocess.Popen('adb shell', shell=True, stdin=subprocess.PIPE)
proc_2 = subprocess.Popen('adb shell', shell=True, stdin=subprocess.PIPE)
proc_1.communicate(b'second adb command')
proc_2.communicate(b'second adb command')

It's currently waiting for the first communicate call to finish before proceeding to the second. How could I run them both in parallel?

A: This is the expected behavior of communicate

Read data from stdout and stderr, until end-of-file is reached. Wait for process to terminate and set the returncode attribute.

Since you do not need to manage stdout nor stderr, it should be enough to call communicate with a timeout of 0 and catch the TimeoutExpired exception:
import subprocess

def communicate_nowait(proc, message):
    try:
        proc.communicate(message, 1E-3)  # 0 might have problems
    except subprocess.TimeoutExpired:
        pass

proc_1 = subprocess.Popen('adb shell', shell=True, stdin=subprocess.PIPE)
proc_2 = subprocess.Popen('adb shell', shell=True, stdin=subprocess.PIPE)
communicate_nowait(proc_1, b'second adb command')
communicate_nowait(proc_2, b'second adb command')

Please note that you will have to take care of cleanup properly (refer to communicate documentation).
Warning:
It seems that a too small timeout might cause problems (see reported bug).


Have you ever come in to the gym all hyped up to train only to find your favorite exercise equipment covered in a puddle of sweat? Yuck!
Ever spent part of your workout time removing weights from machines so you can put yours on? Or searched all over the gym for a bar, pulley handle or weight plates and dumbbells that aren't where they're supposed to be?
Why can't people at the gym be a little bit more courteous?
With so many people coming through the door everyday, being decent and having good manners is key to making everyone's workout time rewarding; not disturbing. Not everyone has two, three or five hours to train. Members all have real needs and goals, whether they are losing weight, putting on some muscle mass, increasing performance, or de-stressing from daily activities.
The main idea is to show respect and consideration. It's all about proper etiquette and general decency.
1. It's always nice to get along with other gym members; but don't become a social butterfly. Most people go to the gym to train, not socialize (that's what Facebook is for). Don't be screaming, grunting or talking too long to those who are focused on their workout. Don't disturb those who are reading, watching TV or listening to their iPod as they exercise; all of this can be irritating to some members.
2. Keep your sweat to yourself. Wipe down equipment when you're done. Remember Electra Health Club & Spa offers paper towels with sanitizing spray bottles to clean. Also, some gym goers do bring towela: use them!
3. Pick up after yourself, we're talking food, water bottles, paper and whatever else including the weights.
5. Loud grunting, or singing along to your iPod are no-nos, I mean seriously; I once heard this dude singing his heart out to "time after time" by Cindy Lauper… I mean, come on!!! Not in the gym. Turn off your cell phone for courtesy purposes. If you can't miss a call, take your conversation outside.
6. Don't hog the equipment. Many gyms have a 30-minute limit on cardio equipment that is enforced only when people are waiting. At Electra we have not set a 30-minute limit; however we still want you to be polite with other gym members.
7. If the gym is not busy, stay on that treadmill as long as you want. If it's packed, respect the rules. When working with weights, alternate sets with people who want to use the same equipment.
8. Wear clothing and footwear designed for exercise. It's not a fashion place but at least don't wear pajamas and torn clothing. But do wear undergarments that provide support and cover areas others don't want to see. And if you're going to lounge in the sauna or steam room, please do not go in there wearing gym or street clothes and sneakers, bathing suits or towels are basics. Remember some of our members are children who shouldn't be exposed, for crying out loud, to certain areas of the human anatomy.

I am a very busy student and I am looking for FAMU apartments that are quiet and pretty low key. Any suggestions?
To hone in on quieter, peaceful Tallahassee apartments near FAMU, use our search tool to select communities that are slightly off the beaten path. Look for amenities such as nature views, lakes, and communities that don't offer a ton of resident activities such as pool parties and get-togethers to make sure you always have an environment conducive to your lifestyle.


I bought my Shih Tzu recently and went to the vet to have her shots. They wanted to do a screening first to be sure that my Gigi (Prapso's name) was not infected because it will somehow make the virus stronger.
So they asked for her breed, and I said, Shih Tzu. They asked me how much I paid for her and told them it was too pricey.
They told me that Gigi was not purebred and that the owner/breeder was not truthful about my puppy's origin.
Immediately, I messaged the seller and told her all that the vet said. I was feeling furious and enraged, but the seller explained everything to me.
I am yet to go back to my vet and tell her everything.
Gigi is beautiful. Thank you for sharing your experience.
Most professionals have no experience with Prapso, and they react exactly the way your veterinarian did, assuming that there is something wrong with the puppy. When Prapso puppies pop up in a litter, even many breeders have little experience and knowledge.
To be fair to all, small genetic changes or mutations creep up into the DNA of all dog breeds. We will never know the extent because many of these changes are not compatible with life and the puppy does not make it past the first few days.
Often these genetic changes, however, small occur in nature all of the time. In the dog world, when this happens, if the difference has a positive outcome, breeders might seize on the opportunity to create different varieties leading to new breeds.
We have almost 400 dog breeds worldwide all that come from essentially the same ancient proto dog which was the offshoot of the grey wolf.
If this phenomenon didn't occur, all of the dogs of today would look much like that original dog and not the variety we enjoy today.

Tick-Borne Infections — Take Steps to Prevent Them
Spring is here and so are ticks! New tick-borne infections have been discovered in recent years and are steadily increasing. Lyme disease is the most commonly reported. Most tick-borne infections, including Lyme disease, can be successfully treated with antibiotics, especially if started early. Preventing tick bites is your best defense against tick-borne infection.
Ticks are different sizes depending on their stage of life. Nymphs are active in spring, and are about the size of a poppy seed, so hard to spot.
Ticks live in shaded, moist areas at ground level. They cling to tall grass, brush, and shrubs, at the edge of woods, along trails, in leaf piles and around old stone walls, waiting for a passerby to come along so they can climb aboard.
Often people are not aware of a tick bite until symptoms appear. These may include severe fatigue, flu-like symptoms, headache, fever, joint swelling, facial paralysis or rash. Some people may experience a sudden red lesion, "bull's-eye rash," on their body. If you experience these symptoms, contact your health provider as soon as possible.
To learn more about Tick-borne infection, call the Tompkins County Health Department at 274-6604 or visit the Department's website: tompkinscountyny.gov/health/summer/ticks. Read the full press release, including precautions, here.

THE BOTTOM LINE: The Ship crashes again on a desolate planet, this time with Sisko and company on board, but they find that they are not alone. Meanwhile, Kira is disturbed to learn that she has been collaborating with the Dominion occupation.
CYNICS CORNER RATING: 8.0 (B-)
MISGUIDED CHARACTERIZATION OF THE WEEK: Yet another attempt to breathe life into a Jem'Hadar goon. I really think that the Jem'Hadar only work as faceless soldiers with no personality at all; that's why they were created, right? Besides, a lot of that crap they spout ("Victory is life!") sounds too much like beaten-to-death Klingon Honor and Tradition cliches. We don't need that. I did appreciate the continuity in the mention of the fragging of Weyoun-Alpha in "To the Death," however, and it was a good idea on Sisko's part to try and turn that Jem'Hadar.
UNEXPLAINED MYSTERY OF THE WEEK: What were those Jem'Hadar up to when they crashed? Why did they happen to be carrying all those pretty dresses for what was supposed to be a three-hour mission?
SMALL WORLD STORY OF THE WEEK: The Ship just happens to crash within earshot of the shipwrecked Jem'Hadar? There was a beer commercial like that once. Besides, here's a desolate, arid planet, apparently; how fortunate that The Ship hit water.
GRATUITOUS CASUALTY OF THE WEEK: Not that redshirt who bought it (of course, the real surprise was that one of them survived), but rather Dax's injury. Was there any reason for that? Subsequent episodes suggest that there wasn't.
EUNUCH OF THE WEEK: Skilled liar Garak, who finds himself speechless, even though he's talked his way out of tougher situations, or at least he tried. Snip snip.
WAR CRIME OF THE WEEK: Hey, Ben, you could at least try the stun setting.
