Assume that 60 percent of the students at the university have taken 4 years of high school math. Of those with four years of high school math, 65 percent plan to major in science. Of those without 4 years, only 10 percent plan to major in science. You stop a student at random. If the student plans to major in science, what is the probability that this student had four years of high school math?
Assume that the fleet consists of 30 percent Lexus, 20 percent Infinity, and 50 percent Mercedes automobiles. 75 percent of the Lexus cars, 70 percent of the Infinities, and 55 percent of the Mercedes have CD players.
Use this information to answer the following questions.
What is the probability that a randomly selected car has a CD player?
What is the probability that a randomly selected car either is a Mercedes or has a CD player?
Assume that 20 percent of students have taken calculus in high school. Of those who have taken calculus in high school, 70 percent plan to major in science. Of those who did not take calculus in high school, only 30 percent plan to major in science. What is the probability that a randomly selected student plans to major in science?
Three men toss a fair coin to see who pays for lunch. If all three match, they toss again. Otherwise, the "odd man" pays for lunch. What is the probability that they will need to do this more than once? and what is the probability of tossing at most twice?
Mark, Nicole, Patrick, Rita, Sarah, Ulrich, and Vera are going to attend a conference at a Hilton Hotel. Each one will have a single room by herself or himself. When they arrive at the hotel (they drove together in a company van), there are 6 single rooms available on the sixth floor and 5 single rooms available on the seventh floor. Each person is assigned to one of these rooms.
In how many overall outcomes is Vera on the sixth floor (i.e., Vera's room is on the sixth floor)?
In how many overall outcomes are Patrick and Rita on the same floor?
In how many overall outcomes is Mark on a higher floor than Sarah?


This "O" gauge GWR 10T. Fish Van running number 2080 in post 1934 dark grey livery is built from the Peco kit. It is in very good running order with finescale metal-tyred spoked wheelsets, one of which is compensated. The model is in good condition with hinged opening side doors, painted interior, sprung buffers and sprung couplings (please note one of the couplings will need a replacement 3-link coupling). There is some extra weight built into the underfloor chassis.


West High Yield WHY Resources Ltd (TSXV:WHY) started its trading session with the price $0.38 and closed at price of $0.38 by scoring 0% on Tuesday. Day range of the stock was $0.38 – $0.38.

West High Yield (W.H.Y.) Resources Ltd. (TSXV:WHY) reported that it has submitted the Project Description for the Record Ridge Industrial Mineral Mine Application to the British Columbia Ministry of Energy Mines and Petroleum Resources (MEMPR). This submission initiates the permitting engagement and review process, which will be led by MEMPR and include other government agencies including the British Columbia Ministry of Environment and Climate Change Strategy and Ministry of Forests, Lands Natural Resource Operations and Rural Development, together with First Nations.
The Company is seeking permits authorizing construction, operation, closure and reclamation of an Industrial Mineral Mine with annual extraction of up to 249,000 tonnes/year of Magnesium-rich serpentinite for a two-year period. Magnesium-rich material would be transported off-site to a processing facility to produce magnesium oxide.
Magnesium oxide and magnesium metal are used in many industries including automotive, aerospace, agriculture, consumer goods, health care, construction and has industrial applications, including steel production, aluminum alloy, and as a soil additive. Magnesium metal is lightweight (33% lighter than aluminum) with high strength properties, ideal for automotive weight reduction design and is also currently in design testing for electrical batteries.
The permitting engagement and review process is expected to be complete within six months. The Company is seeking key authorizations under the BC Mines Act and BC Environmental Management Act.


LG-111 Lasergrips® for Ruger SP-101 revolvers are an ideal blend of rugged durability and ergonomic comfort. Featuring hard polymer construction, but with a smooth surface feel, the LG-111 provides for snag-free draws and the tactical advantage only Crimson Trace® Lasergrips® can offer.
I purchased the LG-111 for my stainless, 2 inch barrel, 38 Special, SP101, that I bought new in 1989 (S/N Prefix 570-).
Installation was quick and easy. I recommend cleaning the grip area, and where the laser warning stickers go, with a q-tip and denatured alcohol to de-grease.
I pre-sighted in as best as I could with aligning the "dot" to where the sights pointed indoors at about 30 feet (trigger guard clamped lightly in a vice in my garage). Next, I went to an outdoor range on a cloudy day to fine tune, with three types of ammunition, at 7 yds. At this range, firing double action, I got 90 gr Hornady, 125 gr Speer +P, and my 130 gr cast handloads to all group in a centered 5-shot (15 total rounds) 2 1/4 inch group! The 130 gr handloads and the 90 gr Hornadys grouped under an inch within their respective groups. Better than I had ever shot with iron sights with this gun! Way good enough for an old man's house gun.
The only issue I had was that the instructions in the Crimson Trace "Laser Sight Owner's Handbook," for the LaserGrips Platform (what the LG-111 is) for windage and elevation adjustments were the EXACT opposite of what was stated in the book. I assumed that "left" in the instructions means move the point of BULLET impact left, "right" means move the point of impact right, "up" means move point of impact up, and "down" means move point of impact down. A clarification in the instruction book as to WHAT is moving "right," "left," "up" and "down" with the adjustments, BULLET or LASER impact point, would be nice!
P.S. I wish I kept the receipt, as I see there is a rebate going on now, pooh!!
Own a 2 1/4" SP101.for MANY YEARS.
and lastly... LG-111 Crimson Trace grips.
Though the long version of the story is both long and interesting....Here is the short version.
Where I live ,big yards,football field sized...full of trees,a creek... almost living in a park.
6 young guys decided to break in the house next to mine...older lady's house.
Circled around the long way around our yards ,came uo behind them about 30 yards away,in the total dark, Then saw them trying to pry open a back door and windows.
Within 5-10 seconds lit up/turned on and off my CRIMSON TRACE LASER on the door and windows right in front of them.
The next 15-30 seconds looked like a comedy sketch.
They ran....Right in my direction!!!!!!! thinking a safe exit!
Ran right past me....coulda reached out and touched one.
Yeah, not pretending a big balled tough guy, I was THRILLED when all ran past me.
I did grin a little when heard them fall into to creek.and splashing sounds as they followed the creek to leave the area.
Own a couple of CRIMSON TRACE gripped handguns.
Have no doubt ,that night the laser woulda helped if needed .
Actually, without firing a shot......safe bet, it more than paid for itself.
Still thinking about upgrading to the newer overmold grip version.
Lord knows, they make great rounds for .357 magnum SNUBBBYs.
And .38 specials have come a long way.
Yet I still keep my SP101 loaded with full powered 125 grain ,jacketed hollow points.
Even with my barrel MAGNAPORTED....Still kicks like a pissed off mule...lol.

Базиліка Діви Марії Та'Піну — католицький храм, розташований на острові Гоцо (Мальта) неподалік від села Арб.

Історія
До XX століття на місці базиліки височіла каплиця XVI століття, присвячена Успінню Богоматері, в якій зберігався вівтарний образ, написаний 1619 року Амедео Перуджіно. За переказами, 23 червня 1883 року на цьому місці Кармні Ґріма чула голос Богоматері.

Будівництво сучасної церкви було розпочато 1920 року, освячення — 1931 року. Наступного року папа Пій XI звів цю церкву в ранг малої базиліки.

Стародавня капела з чудотворним образом розташована в глибині сучасної церкви. Церква, побудована в романському стилі, підноситься посередині сільській місцевості острова Гоцо, оточений пагорбами Гаммара та Гордалі.

Будівля церкви — зразок технічного використання місцевого каменю. Всередині неї розташований багато різних картин, висічених з каменю, які разом з мозаїками прикрашають вівтарні образи та фризи нефа.

10 Acres Property In Luna, New Mexico
I'm interested in [10 Acres Property In Luna, New Mexico]
Camp&RV, Homestead
This property is located just minutes away from Deming, NM. Luna County is a region of desert and semiarid plains broken by isolated mountains and mountain ranges, in the Mexican Highland section of the Basin and Range Province. The outlying land of Luna County is rich in its production of the nation's finest chilies, onions, cotton, pecans, wine grapes, feed crops, and cattle.
This 10-acre property is ideal for people who are looking to settle in an unspoiled atmosphere with an abundance of sunshine, friendly faces, and year-round activities. In a high-desert setting with the Florida Mountains as a backdrop with an agricultural-productive influence.
Luna County is noted as "A rockhound's paradise", for its Mimbreno Indian legacy, its four state parks, its outstanding museum, its year-round golf course, and its proximity to the Gila National Forest and old Mexico. Within the village of Columbus is Pancho Villa State Park, offering camping and picnic facilities in a magnificent cactus botanic garden. It occupies Cootes Hill and the site of old Camp Furlong. Historic artifacts such as the first grease-rack built by the Army in 1916 and military building headquarters remain to be explored and photographed by history buffs. The four state parks of the area bring thousands of tourists to the region every year. Within an hour's drive from Deming, many enjoy exploring and camping in the City of Rocks Park, formed from an ancient volcanic eruption. When viewed from the west, the natural formations appear to be a spectacular Indian pueblo village.
Looking to finance the property? Let us know and we can work with you to make your dream of owning land come true!

Rabbits don't usually get along together on meeting. They may bite each other quite severely.
It is best to introduce rabbits to each other slowly, over time. Two separate areas next to each other can help.

As said before, the story of in the beginning and the first rise of the living soul from the calm and quiet spirit of God is only a fiction meant to explain that the nature of the animate soul is the same as the Supreme Soul. 2 The fiction serves to explain that the individual soul is not only a part of the Supreme Soul, it truly is the same with it.
When the subjective soul is employed with thoughts of the objective, it is called the living God or individual soul. 3 The inclination of the self-intelligent or subjective soul towards the objects of thought garbs it under a great many fictitious names, which you, O Rama, shall now hear me describe in all their varieties.
4 It is called the living soul or jiva from its power of living and thinking. From its addiction towards thoughts, it is called the thinking (chitta) principle and the intellect. 5 It is termed intelligence for its reasoning (buddhi) of this thing as that, as well as for its knowledge of what is what. It is called the mind (manas) from its minding, willing and imagining of many things. 6 The reliance in self that "I am" is what is called egoism (ahamkara). The vulgar call the principle of perception mind which, when freed from everything, is called the intellect by the wise and those acquainted with the scriptures. 7 It is called the sum total of the eightfold principles (puryastaka) or totality of existence when it is combined with all its wishes of creation. It is named subtle nature (prakriti) for its production of the substantial world. 8 Being absent or imperceptible to our perception, it is called hidden nature.
In this way, many other fictitious names are given to God by way of fiction or fabrication of our imagination. 9 All these fictitious names that I have mentioned are mere inventions of our fancy for the one formless and changeless Eternal Being. 10 In this manner, all these three worlds are only the fairylands of our dreams and the castles of our imagination. They appear as objects made for our enjoyment and bliss, but in reality, they are an intangible emptiness imperceptible to touch.
11 So must you know, O best of embodied beings, that this body of yours is of a spiritual and intangible nature. It is the intellectual body formed of the empty intellect, which is rarer than rarefied air. 12 It neither is born nor dies in this world, but continues with our consciousness of ourselves until our final liberation from the sense of our personalities.
This mental body or mind of ours is the recipient of the fourteen worlds and all created objects. 13 In the course of time, millions of worlds continue to be created and dissolved in the extensive regions of our minds. An unnumbered train of created beings are growing and falling like fruit in the mind over the long run of time. 14 This intellectual body beholds the world, both inside and outside of it, like a looking glass reflects and refracts its outer and inner images, and as open air reflects and shows us the upper skies. 15 The mind must bear these images in its mirror until its final dissolution with all things at the end of the world when all minds and bodies and all the world and their contents are to be incorporated in the great emptiness of the Divine Mind.
16 The compactness of the Divine Mind, which comprehends all images or ideas in itself, imparts them partly in all individual minds, which are only parts of itself and which are made to think likewise. 17 This spiritual body that is occupied in viewing the inborn world in itself is called the form of the great Brahma by some, and the god Viraj by others. 18 Some call him the everlasting and others give him the name of Narayana or floating on the surface of the waters. Some name him Isha (Lord) or Prajapati, the lord of creatures.
19 This suddenly chanced to have his five organs of sense seated in the various parts of his body, where they still retain their seats as before. 20 Then his delusion of phenomena seems to extend far and wide without any appearance of reality, all being a vast waste and void. 21 It is all the appearance of that eternal and transcendental Brahman, and not of the phenomena which is never real. It is the same Brahman without beginning or end appearing in a light quite unintelligible to us.
22 Our inquiry into the spiritual form of God leads us to take the world to be a delusion, just as the longing of an ardent lover after his loved one leads him to see her swelling body in his dream. 23 As we have the blank and formless notion of a pot presented in the real shape of the pot in our minds, so have we the ideas of our bodies and the world represented as realities in dreams and imagination. 24 As dreamed objects of our empty minds seem to be real while we sleep, so all these ethereal objects in nature appear as solid substances in the delusion of our dreams by daylight.
25 This spiritual and formless body of the jiva comes to be gradually perceived in us, and by itself also, as we come to see ethereal forms presenting themselves to us in our dream. 26 Then the forms are embodied in a gross body composed of flesh and bones and all its organs and its covering of skin and hair. In this state it thinks of its carnal desires. 27 Then it reflects on its birth and acts in that body and upon the duration and end of that body, and it entertains the false ideas of the enjoyments and incidents of its life. 28 It comes to know that it is subject to decay, decrepitude and death. It wanders on all sides of the wide sphere of this globe. It gets knowledge of the knower and known, and also of the beginning, middle and end of all acts and things.
29 And thus the Primordial Spirit, being transformed to the living soul, comes to know the elementary bodies of earth, air, water and fire and the varieties of created beings and conduct of men. Having been the container of all bodies and space, it finds itself contained and confined within the limits of its body and of this earth.

Review: Sightseers (2013)
Sightseers (2013)
Directed by: Ben Wheatley
Premise: An offbeat couple (Alice Lowe and Steve Oram) take a road trip through the English countryside but what begins as a relaxing trip takes a murderous turn as the couple kills anyone who annoys them.
What Works: Most movies are made with a particular audience in mind and as such they imitate existing films to appeal to that audience with the goal of replicating the box office performance. The result is usually a picture that tends to look and feel like other movies. This is often a comfort for audiences because they know, usually within the first few minutes, what kind of movie they are getting into and set expectations accordingly. Then there are movies like Sightseers which establish a tone early on and then take the story into unexpected directions. That makes the film an awkward viewing experience that viewers may reject or accept, depending on how adventurous they are and how married they are to their expectations. The joy of Sightseers—and what is special about it—is the way in which its filmmakers refuse to adhere to any mainstream notions about tone, genre, or filmmaking style. This movie tells the story of a couple going on a road trip and from the opening the filmmakers establish a lighthearted if offbeat tenor; the couple do not look like the typical protagonists of a mainstream movie; they're not thin or conventionally attractive, they don't speak in wisecracks, nor do they come across as adventurous or violent. In fact, the couple is a pair of simpletons with sometimes slovenly manners but they don't exhibit the traits that audiences are usually conditioned to associate with villains or other violent characters in the movies. When the carnage starts it's all the more surprising and it takes on an absurd quality. Violence and comedy frequently go together but when they do the violence is usually bloodless as it is The Three Stooges or it is so over the top that it's out of proportion with reality as in Evil Dead II. What is strange about the violence in Sightseers is that it's absurd and yet realistic. The murders of this film simultaneously have a realistic look but are committed by characters who don't act in the way we expect other human beings to behave or in the way we've been conditioned to expect movie characters to behave during and after taking a life. The film succeeds in making the audience laugh at really awful images but it also challenges the way in which we usually conceive of violence in cinema.
What Doesn't: Sightseers is the kind of movie that's only going to appeal to a niche audience. The very design of the film is going to limit its appeal, so Sightseers can only be recommended to those who enjoy offbeat indie movies or very dark humor as seen in films like Seven Psychopaths or Snatch. But even allowing for that, the movie has its shortcomings. The film tests the audience's patience, which is kind of the point of a movie like this, but its gleeful foray into bloodshed is a little bit troubling. Movies like Taxi Driver or even Death Wish have something at the heart of the picture that gives the violence a function beyond itself. With Sightseers it's harder to decipher what the filmmakers might be trying to say about violence or life in general. This is a movie of gross people doing gross things to other gross people; the fact that the moviemakers get the viewer to laugh may be part of the point. In that respect, Sightseers is an end in itself. It exists because it can. But for a lot of viewers, especially those in the mainstream, that may not be enough to sustain interest or give a sense of satisfaction when it's over.
DVD extras: Commentary tracks, featurette, outtakes, and trailers.
Bottom Line: Sightseers is admirable in the way its filmmakers accomplish what they've set out to do. The film subverts what we expect from cinema violence and from comedies. In that respect it is a deliberate train wreck of a movie. The film is certainly going to have a narrow appeal but that is the point.

If you are new to the sport of adventure hiking, you've got a little work ahead of you to prepare for long treks and potential routes. The research is a lot of fun and can get you excited about your upcoming adventures. In considering what you need to prepare in order to head out on an adventure hike for the first time, we wanted to share some hiking trails that are good for beginners doing multi-day hikes for the first time. It can be overwhelming to think about having to carry everything you need on your back so you can make your hike, but having a plan makes it so much easier to execute an excellent adventure hike. Here are several trails that are good for first time multi-day hikers.
When considering a multi-day hike for the first time, you want to keep it short. A hike of about 2-5 days is enough to get your feet wet and to help you decide if this lifestyle is something you want to pursue further. In making the trek from Tuolumne Meadows to Yosemite Valley, backpackers can expect to make the almost 30-mile trek in less than five days depending on how fast they travel.
This 20-mile hike takes less than four days, even if you are going slowly. There is a lot of uneven terrain and even some rock climbing that needs to be done to make this trek, so check out Climb Fit for the latest in climbing footwear to help you navigate this trail with ease. Making the trip from Lake Ozette to Rialto Beach and offers hikers a variety of woods and shoreline hiking. Located in Washington State, this trail offers a rainforest like ecosystem, so be sure to plan for the weather, and you'll be comfortable along the way.
Located in Utah, this longer hiking trip can be divided into shorter, more manageable treks spanning 3-12+ days. Because the trail actually loops around in several areas, hikers and backpackers could spend days just wandering around in the "maze" walking over 80 miles or more if they wanted to. This trail will require some planning so you don't get stuck out there longer than you would like. You won't want to make this hike alone, as it needs an expert's eye to navigate the winding pathways, but it's not impossible for a beginner to put the maze behind them as a novice.
Whether you want to spend a night in the wilderness while hiking or you want to spend 30 nights, a little planning is all that is needed to make this dream a reality. Get yourself the proper gear, do your homework and talk to knowledgeable backpackers, and make a plan to head out and achieve that goal. It's a great way to see the world and experience nature at its best.

News Release 17-Nov-2020
Non-hereditary mutation acts as natural gene therapy in patient with rare disease
Scientists at a research center supported by FAPESP identified a non-inherited mutation in blood cells from a patient with GATA2 deficiency that may have prevented bone marrow failure and other clinical manifestations

Researchers affiliated with the Center for Cell-Based Therapy (CTC) in Ribeirão Preto, Brazil, have identified for the first time a non-hereditary mutation in blood cells from a patient with GATA2 deficiency, a rare autosomal disease caused by inherited mutations in the gene that encodes GATA-binding protein 2 (GATA2). GATA2 regulates the expression of many genes that play a key role in developmental processes and cell renewal.
The researchers believe the non-hereditary (somatic) mutation may have acted as a kind of natural gene therapy, preventing the disease from damaging the process of blood cell renewal (hematopoiesis), so that the patient did not develop such typical clinical manifestations as bone marrow failure, hearing loss and lymphedema (blockage of the lymphatic system).
An article on the study is published in the journal Blood, featuring on the cover and with an editorial commentary.
The findings pave the way for the use of gene therapy and changes in genetic counseling for families with the hereditary disorder. "When a germline [inherited] mutation in GATA2 is detected, the patient's family has to be investigated because there may be silent cases," Luiz Fernando Bazzo Catto, first author of the article, told Agência FAPESP.
CTC is a Research, Innovation and Dissemination Center (RIDC) funded by FAPESP and hosted by the University of São Paulo's Ribeirão Preto Medical School (FMRP-USP), where Catto is a PhD candidate. His thesis advisor is Professor Rodrigo Calado, corresponding author of the article and a member of CTC.
The patient was identified when his two sons were undergoing medical treatment at the blood center of the hospital run by FMRP-USP. One of the siblings was diagnosed with moderate aplastic anemia (a bone marrow disorder in which the body stops producing enough new blood cells) and psoriatic arthritis. His low red blood cell count and immune cell deficiency worsened over the following five years and he died aged 27 from a lung infection. Post-mortem DNA sequencing confirmed his germline mutation and GATA2 deficiency diagnosis.
His brother began treatment at the hospital aged 25, with a history of recurrent lung infections, hypothyroidism, deep-vein thrombosis and deafness. Sequencing of his leukocytes and skin fibroblasts also confirmed an identical germline mutation.
To find out from which parent the brothers inherited the mutation, the researchers sequenced the mother's and father's DNA. The mother did not have the mutation. The 61-year-old father had exactly the same mutation as his sons in sperm and skin fibroblasts. He was asymptomatic, and his blood count and lymphocytes were within the normal range.
"This discovery raised the question whether the father transmitted the mutation or acquired it but didn't pass it on to his sons," Catto said.
In search of an answer, the researchers used next-generation sequencing to estimate the proportion of normal blood cells in the father's bone marrow, preventing clinical manifestations of GATA2 deficiency, and of cells similar to his children's.
The results showed that 93% of his leukocytes had the somatic mutation that confers protection from the clinical manifestations of GATA2 deficiency. The remaining 7% carried the mutation associated with the disorder. "This 7% were a remnant of the original clone," Catto said.
Treatment prospect
The researchers also sequenced the father's T-lymphocytes, which are long-lived, to find out whether his somatic mutation could induce normal cell production for a long time. The analysis showed that the somatic mutation occurred early in their lives and in the development of hematopoietic stem cells, which have the potential to form blood. "It's very likely that the father had acquired the somatic mutation in his blood a long time ago," Catto said.
To see if the father's blood cells could maintain the activity for a long time, they measured the telomeres of his peripheral blood leukocytes. Telomeres are repetitive sequences of non-coding DNA at the tip of chromosomes that protect them from damage. Each time cells divide, their telomeres become shorter. They eventually become so short that division is no longer possible, and the cells die or become senescent.
The telomeres analyzed by the researchers were long. "This indicates that these blood cells can remain active for a long time," Catto said.
A hypothesis formulated in the article is that the existence of the somatic mutation in the father's blood cells, and its restoration of the blood cell renewal process, may have contributed to the non-manifestation of extra-hematological symptoms of GATA2 deficiency such as deafness, lymphedema, and thrombosis. Early hematopoietic recovery in patients with the disease, via a bone marrow transplant or in future via gene therapy, could be beneficial and avoid other clinical complications, the authors suggest in the article on the study.
"A sort of natural gene therapy occurred in this patient," Calado said. "It's as if he embodied an experiment and a medium-term prospect of analogous gene therapy treatment in patients with GATA2 deficiency."
Besides contributing to an advance in treatment of the disease and genetic counseling, the study also provides new knowledge about the biology of hematopoietic stem cells. "The findings help us understand better how stem cells can recover by repairing an initial genetic defect," Calado said.

Customer deployed third party NMS to display CPU usage and memory usage of the S5700. After configure the SNMPv3 on all the switches and all the same configuration, when test from the Solarwinds it shows that some switches can display normal but some switches not. The error shows as the following picture.
As the customer feedback the information, the customer want to display CPU usage and memory usage. After check the OID and it is right.
According to the configuration, the read-view is MIB-2. And as our check, the OID 1.3.6.1.4.1.2011.5.25.31.1.1.1.1.5 and 1.3.6.1.4.1.2011.5.25.31.1.1.1.1.7 are not include in MIB-2.
The OID 1.3.6.1.4.1.2011.5.25.31.1.1.1.1.5 and 1.3.6.1.4.1.2011.5.25.31.1.1.1.1.7 are not include in MIB-2. So after the configuration and test, the Solarwinds can't get usage of CPU and memory.


In 2005, Avenged Sevenfold took a creative turn and hurled a unexpected curveball to fans with 'City Of Evil,' one of the best (American) metal albums of the year. Fans were outraged with A7X losing the screamo dirty vocals and turning to a more melodic style. To me they sounded like Iron Maiden mixed with a healthy dose of modern metal. I was very impressed. Now, seemingly having moved completely away from their metalcore foundations, Avenged Sevenfold will surely turn more heads and probably, once again, piss off fans of the old style with their new self-titled fourth work. This album contains a variety of unexpected and eclectic twists and turns of style from beginning to end. A7X drew on new musical influences like country and melodic metal. The music includes some striking string orchestrations, female and choral vocals, horns, and yes, banjo and pedal steel guitar. The result is another very different, but infinitely pleasing, creation.
The album starts out hard with 'Critical Acclaim,'a song with obvious political commentary surrounded by modern metal melody. 'Almost Easy' continues with the same feel and adds a great memorable chorus. 'Scream' may remind more of 'City Of Evil' A7X than any other song. Here M. Shadows' rough yet clean vocals stand out. But things begin to get interesting with 'Afterlife' which begins with impressive strings and pounds away with a great, near funky Red Hot Chili Peppers, groove. Again, the melody and harmony of the chorus inspires. 'Gunslinger' adds the country feel with pedal steel guitar during the smooth start. It quickly moves to a hard-rocking number with Shadows' giving some great metal screams and Synyster Gates delivering the best solo on the album.
Moving on to 'Brompton Cocktail' and 'Lost,' you again find an eclectic mixture of melody and style. The former was practically to eccentric to be very impressive. But 'Lost' rushes along with some amazing fret work by Gates. 'A Little Piece Of Heaven' is probably my favorite song on the album. Shadows truly defines his vocal diversity through the course of the song. I know this guy had it in him! Along with the horns and the incredible arrangement, this sounds like a progressive metal piece with a pinch of Zappa thrown in for good measure. Finally, I must mention the wonderfully soothing 'Dear God' and its serious country groove admist a blues influenced metal style. A great song.
I'm sure 'Avenged Sevenfold' will again create another love/hate dilemma for some fans of the band. But this is unwarranted. It's great to see a band reject the mass hysteria of modern American metal and explore new and greater ideas. A7X should be praised and listened to with open mind and ears. This is a great album: highly recommended!

Never underestimate a trio of curious teens…. Tough girl Summer, her smartmouth younger brother Colin and his pushover best friend Jason find themselves in a cottage in the woods when the siblings' dad and his girlfriend take them on a low-budget getaway. As the adults get drinking, the kids go exploring and come across a ramshackle house in the woods where they witness their neighbour serving up a couple local yokels to her hungry, undead, brood. When she discovers the intruders, they become next on the menu.
The dichotomy of teen movies and balls to the wall horror always makes for an interesting mix, often giving us the best of both worlds AND in particular the best in horror, especially in recent years: Turbo Kid, Deathgasm, It Follows, etc. Hot on their heels comes Dead Shack, a film that takes the tropes of the kids adventure movie, a la The Goonies, and throws in zombies, sadistic killers and gore, gallons of gore!
That's not to say Dead Shack isn't a great horror comedy, it is, it's just that it feels like you're watching a overly-gory episode of Are You Afraid of the Dark or Goosebumps, aimed at later-aged teens rather than adults looking for the latest zombie hit. I don't mean that in a derogatory way, it's just that I couldn't help feel that, had director Peter Ricq upped the ante on actual scares, this could have been near-perfect genre film. Instead we get a serviceable zom-com that shines thanks to the grotesque black comedy and the performances of its main cast.
Speaking of cast; beyond the trio of teen heroes, Dead Shack is marked by two fantastic performances: Lauren Holly as the armour-wearing matriarch of the zombie family, who uses her feminie charms to lure moronic men to their death at the hands of her flesh-eating folks (a superb subversion of the "final girl" trope); and Donavon Stinson as the drunk father who stumbles his way through the chaos, seemingly oblivious as to what is going on even in the face of all the [bloody] evidence!
Like a lot of teen-led horror, it's the kids that are not only the heroes but also drive the film forward. The relationship between the three protagonists Jason, Summer and Colin, is central to the success of Dead Shack – the banter, the comraderie, the "love", between the trio is the heart of the film and the source of the films more light-hearted moments. The three are also not afraid to get suited up for a fight too. Something they do in style, tooling up with weapons and homemade armour a la Evil Dead 2 and, more recently, Turbo Kid.
Dead Shack screened as part of this years Fantasia International Film Festival.

Author tools to prepare your article
Attention, Perception & Psychophysics (APP) publishes articles that deal with sensory processes, perception, attention, and psychophysics. There are four types of submission:
a. Research Articles - These articles typically describe several experiments unified by an introduction and a closing discussion placing the experiments in the context of other work in the field and providing a coherent theoretical account of the new knowledge found in the results of those experiments. While the majority of published articles are reports of experimental investigations in these content areas, articles that are primarily theoretical or integrative are also welcome. There are no explicit length restrictions, but an acceptable article must make a substantial contribution to the field.
b. Brief Reports – This format is intended to facilitate the rapid publication of breaking news of general interest to the APP community. Brief reports are limited to 3000 words of main body text plus figures. A cover letter to the Editor should explain why this is appropriate as a Brief Report.
c. Tutorial Reviews (invited/self-nominations accepted) – Tutorial Reviews are intended to serve as high-level introductory reviews of relatively broad topics in the domain of the journal (e.g., "Perception of biological motion", not "Review of the role of amygdala in perception of inverted biological motion in infants"). Length is "moderate" (i.e. shorter than Annual Review chapters, longer than Current Directions in Psychological Science articles). Bibliography should be extensive. Please note: Tutorial reviews ordinarily are commissioned by invitation but self-nominations are welcome. Send a brief email to any editor describing the proposed review and providing a bare outline.
d. Registered Reports or Replications (RRR) – This format is intended to strengthen the reliability and validity of the results in our science. RRR submission is a two-stage process. Authors submit a proposed study. If it passes initial review, APP will commit to publishing the results, regardless of the outcome, if the final study conforms with the initially approved proposal. The Registered Report format is appropriate for studies that seek to test clearly articulated, theoretically significant hypotheses (e.g., Theory A predicts X whereas Theory B predicts Y). Replications should be precise replications (with possible extensions) of theoretically important findings. The initial submission would approximate the background and method sections of a relatively short standard research article.
The initial submission of a RRR should include the following items:
i.	A cover letter to the Editor explaining why the submission is appropriate as a Registered Report or Replication.
ii.	The background section should describe the theory under investigation and the specific hypotheses that lead to the procedures proposed. This is not the place for methodological and/or theoretical innovations: Our standard Article and Short Report formats serve those roles. The RRR format is a mechanism for confirming or disconfirming prominent theories and findings in the field.
iii.	The background section should briefly report the previous, related experiments, published or unpublished, conducted by the authors (in addition to the usual background of prior work).
iv.	The proposed method section must specify all of the variables, both independent and dependent, in the experiment.
v.	The proposed method section must address the issue of statistical power although we recognize that classic power analysis may not be appropriate for all designs.
vi.	The proposed method section must specify a clear rule for terminating data collection (number of observers, number of trials, etc).
vii.	The proposed method section must specify the data analysis procedures that will be used, including rules for data elimination.
viii.	There must be a plan for making the raw data publically available.
ix.	The cover letter must attest that the preceding points have been attended to and that the project has ethics approval and all other necessary approvals & that funding is in place to start the research immediately on approval.
The final submission should include the following items:
x.	The cover letter must certify that the data for the registered experiment were collected after receiving approval from APP.
xi.	The completed experiment(s) must have been executed and analyzed in the manner originally approved with any unforeseen changes in those approved methods and analyses clearly noted.
xii.	The manuscript must describe and justify all post-hoc analyses.
While APP will commit to publishing the results, review of the final submission may lead to comments that need to be addressed in revision. APP's commitment is to the results, not to the discussion section.
Once a RRR is approved, the authors have one year to submit the actual manuscript with the results. That deadline can be extended by negotiation with the Editor but, in general, the project requires new approval one year after its initial acceptance.
Registered reports are limited to 3000 words of main body text plus figures, although exceptions are possible if approved by the Editor; supplementary material is encouraged.
More details about RRR submissions can be found in a published editorial in APP. Wolfe, J. M. (2013). Registered Reports and Replications in Attention, Perception, & Psychophysics. Attention, Perception, & Psychophysics, 75(5), 781-783. http://dx.doi.org/10.3758/s13414-013-0502-5.
e. Research Highlights – APP publishes very brief (1-2 paragraph) accounts of current articles in the journal and elsewhere. These are news reports similar to the "Research Highlights" section of Nature. These are NOT submitted through the manuscript submission website. Typically, these are written by the editors and editorial board. However, if you think that the APP community should be made aware of an article (presumably, not one of your own), feel free to submit 2-3 brief paragraphs to any editor.

(e) the manuscript includes appropriate measures of variability, effect size, and (when relevant) statistical power.
Since its inception, the core mission of the Psychonomic Society has been to foster the science of cognition through the advancement and communication of basic research in experimental psychology and allied sciences. To promote replicable research practices, the policy of the Psychonomic Society is to publish papers in which authors follow standards for disclosing all important aspects of the research design and data analysis. The Society does not enforce any single reporting standard, but authors are encouraged to review and adopt guidelines described, for example, by the American Psychological Association (APA).
In 2017, the Society signed on to the Open Science Initiative's Level 1 Transparency and Openness Guidelines. All authors are required to respond to the questions below, and in addition, all submitted manuscripts must include an Open Practices Statement immediately prior to the References section of the paper. The statement must specify (1) whether data and/or materials are available, and if so, where (as per Level 1 TOP guidelines, URLs are required to have a persistent identifier); and (2) whether any experiments were preregistered, and if so, which.
The following are examples of appropriate Open Practices Statements:
The data and materials for all experiments are available at (url for the site hosting the data and materials) and Experiment 1 was preregistered (url for the preregistration).
None of the data or materials for the experiments reported here is available, and none of the experiments was preregistered
The Psychonomic Society's Publications Committee and Ethics Committee and the Editors in Chief of the Society's six journals worked together (with input from others) to create these guidelines on statistical issues. These guidelines focus on the analysis and reporting of quantitative data. Many of the issues described below pertain to vulnerabilities in null hypothesis significance testing (NHST), in which the central question is whether or not experimental measures differ from what would be expected due to chance. Below we emphasize some steps that researchers using NHST can take to avoid exacerbating those vulnerabilities. Many of the guidelines are long-standing norms about how to conduct experimental research in psychology. Nevertheless, researchers may benefit from being reminded of some of the ways that poor experimental procedure and analysis can compromise research conclusions. Authors are asked to consider the following issues for each manuscript submitted for publication in a Psychonomic Society journal. Some of these issues are specific to NHST, but many of them apply to other approaches as well. We welcome feedback regarding these guidelines via email to info@psychonomic.org with the Subject heading "Statistical Guidelines."
1. It is important to address the issue of statistical power. Statistical power refers to the probability that a test will reject a false null hypothesis. Studies with low statistical power produce inherently ambiguous results because they often fail to replicate. Thus it is highly desirable to have ample statistical power and to report an estimate of a priori power (not post hoc power) for tests of your main hypotheses. Best practice when feasible is to draw on the literature and/or theory to make a plausible estimate of effect size and then to test a sufficient number of participants to attain adequate power to detect an effect of that size. There is no hard-and-fast rule specifying "adequate" power, and Editors may judge that other considerations (e.g., novelty, difficulty) partially offset low power. If a priori power cannot be calculated because there is no estimate of effect size, then perhaps the analysis should focus on estimation of the effect size rather than on a hypothesis test. In any case, the Method section should make clear what criteria were used to determine the sample size. The main points here are to (a) do what you reasonably can to attain adequate power and (b) explain how the number of participants was determined.
2. Multiple NHST tests inflate null-hypothesis rejection rates. Tests of statistical significance (e.g., t-tests, analyses of variance) should not be used repeatedly on different subsets of the same data set (e.g., on varying numbers of participants in a study) without statistical correction, because the Type I error rate increases across multiple tests.
A. One concern is the practice of testing a small sample of participants and then analyzing the data and deciding what to do next depending on whether the predicted effect (a) is statistically significant (stop and publish!), (b) clearly is not being obtained (stop, tweak, and start a new experiment), or (c) looks like it might become significant if more participants are added to the sample (test more participants, then reanalyze; repeat as needed). If this "optional stopping rule" has been followed without appropriate corrections, then report that fact and acknowledge that the Type I error rate is inflated by the multiple tests. Depending on the views of the Editor and reviewers, having used this stopping rule may not preclude publication, but unless appropriate corrections to the Type I error rate are made it will lessen confidence in the reported results. Note that Bayesian data analysis methods are less sensitive to problems related to optional stopping than NHST methods.
B. It is problematic to analyze data and then drop some participants or some observations, re-run the analyses, and then report only the last set of analyses. If participants or observations were eliminated, then explicitly indicate why, when, and how this was done and either (a) report or synopsize the results of analyses that include all of the observations or (b) explain why such analyses would not be appropriate.
C. Covariate analyses should either be planned in advance or be described as exploratory. It is inappropriate to analyze data without a covariate, then re-analyze those same data with a covariate and report only the latter analysis as confirmation of an idea. It may be appropriate to conduct multiple analyses in exploratory research, but it is important to report those analyses as exploratory and to acknowledge possible inflations of the Type I error rate.
D. If multiple dependent variables (DVs) are individually analyzed with NHST, the probability that at least one of them will be "significant" by chance alone grows with the number of DVs. Therefore it is important to inform readers of all of the DVs collected that are relevant to the study. For example, if accuracy, latency, and confidence were measured, but the paper focuses on the accuracy data, then report the existence of the other measures and (if possible) adjust the analyses as appropriate. Similarly, if several different measures were used to tap a construct, then it is important to report the existence of all of those indices, not just the ones that yielded significant effects (although it may be reasonable to present a rationale for why discounting or not reporting detailed results for some of the measures is justified). There is no need to report measures that were available to you (e.g., via a participant pool data base) but that are irrelevant to the study.
3. Rich descriptions of the data help reviewers, the Editor, and other readers understand your findings. Thus it is important to report appropriate measures of variability around means and around effects (e.g., confidence intervals around means and/or around standardized effect sizes).
4. Cherry picking experiments, conditions, DVs, or observations can be misleading. Give readers the information they need to gain an accurate impression of the reliability and size of the effect in question.
A. Conducting multiple experiments with the same basic procedure and then reporting only the subset of those studies that yielded significant results (and putting the other experiments in an unpublished "file drawer") can give a misleading impression of the size and replicability of an effect. If several experiments testing the same hypothesis with the same or very similar methods have been conducted and have varied in the pattern of significant and null effects obtained (as would be expected, if only due to chance), then you should report both the significant and the non-significant findings. Reporting the non-significant findings can actually strengthen evidence for the existence of an effect when meta-analytical techniques pool effect sizes across experiments. It is not generally necessary to report results from exploratory pilot experiments, such as when pilot experiments were used to estimate effect size, provided the final experiment has high power. In contrast, it is not appropriate to run multiple low-powered pilot experiments on a given topic and then report only the experiments that reject the null hypothesis.
B. Deciding whether or not to report data from experimental conditions post hoc, contingent on the outcome of NHST, inflates the Type I error rate. Therefore, please inform readers of all of the conditions tested in the study. If, for example, 2nd, 4th, and 6th graders were tested in a study of memory development then it is appropriate to report on all three of those groups, even if one of them yielded discrepant data. This holds even if there are reasons to believe that some data should be discounted (e.g., due to a confound, a ceiling or floor effect in one condition, etc.). Here again, anomalous results do not necessarily preclude publication (after all, even ideal procedures yield anomalous results sometimes by chance). Failing to report the existence of a condition that did not yield the expected data can be misleading.
C. Deciding to drop participants or observations post hoc contingent on the outcome of NHST inflates the Type I error rate. Best practice is to set inclusion/exclusion criteria in advance and stick to them, but if that is not done then whatever procedure was followed should be reported.
5. Be careful about using null results to infer "boundary conditions" for an effect. A single experiment that does not reject the null hypothesis provides only weak evidence for the absence of an effect. Too much faith in the outcome of a single experiment can lead to hypothesizing after the results are known (HARKing), which can lead to theoretical ideas being defined by noise in experimental results. Unless the experimental evidence for a boundary condition is strong, it may be more appropriate to consider a non-significant experimental finding as a Type II error. Such errors occur at a rate that reflects experimental power (e.g., if power is .80, then 20% of exact replications would be expected to fail to reject the null).
6. Authors should use statistical methods that best describe and convey the properties of their data. The Psychonomic Society does not require authors to use any particular data analysis method. The following sections highlight some important considerations.
A. Statistically significant findings are not a prerequisite for publication in Psychonomic Society journals. Indeed, too many significant findings relative to experimental power can indicate bias. Sometimes strong evidence for null effects can be deeply informative for theorizing and for identifying boundary conditions of an effect.
B. In many scientific investigations the goal of an experiment is to measure the magnitude of an effect with some degree of precision. In such a situation a hypothesis test may be inappropriate as it only indicates whether data appear to differ from some specific theoretical value. Sometimes stronger scientific arguments can be made with confidence intervals (of parameter values or of standardized effect sizes). Moreover, some of the bias issues described above can be avoided by designing experiments to measure effects to a desired degree of precision (range of confidence interval).
C. The Psychonomic Society encourages the use of data analysis methods other than NHST when appropriate. For example, Bayesian data analysis methods avoid some of the problems described above. They can be used instead of traditional NHST methods for both hypothesis testing and estimation.
Ultimately, journal Editors work with reviewers and authors to promote good scientific practice in publications in Psychonomic Society journals. A publication decision on any specific manuscript depends on much more than the above guidelines, and individual Editors and reviewers may stress some points more than others. Nonetheless, all else being equal submissions that comply with these guidelines will be better science and be more likely to be published than submissions that deviate from them.

Manuscripts are to adhere to the conventions described in the Publication Manual of the American Psychological Association (6th ed.). See www.apastyle.org/ for information on APA style, or type "APA style" into a search engine to find numerous online sources of information about APA style. Here we highlight only the most fundamental aspects of that style.
Layout: All manuscripts are to be double spaced and have 1" margins with page numbers in the upper right corner of each page.
Title Page: The title page must include the authors' names and affiliations and the corresponding author's address, telephone number, and e-mail address.
Abstract: There must be an abstract of no more than 250 words.
Sections: Manuscript should be divided into sections (and perhaps subsections) appropriate for their content (e.g., introduction/background, Method, Results, etc.), as per APA style.
Acknowledgments: The Author Note should include sources of financial support and any possible conflicts of interest. If desirable, contributions of different authors may be briefly described here. Reviewers and the Editor should not be thanked in the Author Note.
Figures and Tables: Figures and tables are to be designed as per APA style.
Location of Figures, Tables, and Footnotes: In submitted manuscripts, figures and tables can be embedded in the body of the text and footnotes can be placed at the bottom of the page on which the footnoted material is referenced. Note that this is a departure from APA style; if you prefer you can submit the manuscript with the figures, tables, and footnotes at the end, but it is slightly easier for reviewers if these elements appear near the text that refers to them. When a paper is accepted, in the final version that the author submits for production each figure and table must be on a separate page near the end of the manuscript and all footnotes must be listed on a footnote page, as per the APA Publication Manual.
Citations and References: These should conform to APA style.
Cover letter: Authors are encouraged to provide a cover letter with newly submitted manuscripts. It should very briefly describe the main findings and conclusions of the paper. It is helpful to offer suggestions about appropriate reviewers. However, the final selection of reviewers lies with the editors.
Acknowledgments of people, grants, funds, etc. should be placed in a separate section before the reference list. The names of funding organizations should be written in full. In addition, please provide the funding information in a separate step of the submission process in the peer review system. Funder names should preferably be selected from the standardized list you will see during submission. If the funding institution you need is not listed, it can be entered as free text. Funding information will be published as searchable metadata for the accepted article, whereas acknowledgements are published within the paper.
Authors are encouraged to use color in figures if they believe that doing so improves the clarity of those figures. With the approval of the Editor, color can be used in the online version of the journal at no cost to authors. Moreover, as of 2011, the Editor has a limited budget for printing hard copy articles with color figures at no expense to authors. The Editor makes the final decision as to whether or not an article will be printed in hard copy with color: The greater the scientific value of using color the more likely an Editor will approve its use. Also, authors can pay for printed production of their articles with color figures; the current fee is $1,100 per article (regardless of the number of color figures).
Whether used only online or both in print and online, color figures should (insofar as is possible) be designed such that grayscale versions are interpretable. This is important because readers may wish to print or photocopy articles in grayscale.

Llama & Goats - Tuttle Orchards Inc: Indianapolis Apple Orchard, Pumpkin Patch and Farm Store.
no charge to view the llama and goats.
Please note this is NOT a petting zoo. These are a few farm animals for viewing.
Each fall a few local goats stay at the orchard for a couple months for families to enjoy while they visit.
These animals are raised by a neighboring farm and come to visit us for a short time.
Animals are located near the kid's farm play area and are available for viewing not petting. Please don't feed the animals.
