KELLER IS STELLAR TO CAP OFF SOLID SIX FIGHT NIGHT
by Dan Nolan | Jul 21, 2017
photos by Troy Conrad
With the audience barely half sat as the show cold opens over twenty minutes ahead of schedule to accommodate the seven slated battles, Chris Wilmoth and Jordan Baney – both roommates from Erie, Pennsylvania – begin the undercard lineup in each's debut battle. Chris volunteers to take the first shot.
"Jordan has the emotional stability of the white woman who raised him, and the credit score of the black man who abandoned him."
"Chris has been hooking up with a lot of older women lately. I guess he just likes the comfort of a woman who's used to seeing a small dick with rashes."
"Jordan looks like Montel Williams if he sold P90X."
"Chris loves telling people how much he wishes he was black, but that's just an excuse for him having sex with so many gross white women and not being able to find a job."
"Jordan has a tattoo of the virgin Mary. It's supposed to represent his mom, which is ironic because his mom fucks a bunch of black guys."
"Jerry Sandusky molested a lot of children at Penn State, which makes it the second worst sex crime to happen on campus next to when Chris lost his virginity."
Jordan at some point lost the audience's confidence and his second joke doesn't get nearly the credit it deserves, and his closer falling flat. Chris Wilmoth takes a lop-sided decision but both battlers should be commended on a stellar round, especially considering it was their first time.
Next up, after another round of standup, TMZ's Brian McDaniel takes on the returning Isaac "Flaco" Martinez. The Roastmaster Jeff Ross arrives to take his seat at the judges' table just in time to get a little backstory on the battle. Brian and Flaco are both friends who run shows together, and Brian volunteers to open the bout.
"Flaco has a terrible disease called Marfan's. His life expectancy was only 34, which makes him the only comic to ever run the light on God."
"TMZ ruined a lot of careers, just take Brian McDaniel for example.You're like James Comey: tall, jobless, and desperate to get back on TV."
"I don't know why you're shitting on my success, man. If I didn't have a big house, I couldn't pay your mom to clean it every Saturday. Flaco's real name is Isaac, which is what his mom said when she saw him crawl out of her vag… 'eyes! ack!!!'"
"Brian does a lot of Latino comedy shows. His comedy is like Donald Trump's wall: unpopular, useless, and no Mexican will ever pay for that shit."
"That's a good joke. Your future is almost as bright as Haiti's teeth. Flaco's fingers are like ET's fingers. They're long, disgusting, and he uses them to touch children."
Brian holds a clear lead as Flaco goes into his final joke, suffering through an issue with pronunciation.
"Brian McDaniel's comedy is like Joesten Beepers does Bazitos on."
"What???" – The Audience
"Justin Bieber's Desposito song. [inaudible] Only enjoyed by hipsters."
Another all-around quality battle ending in a nevertheless decisive victory. Flaco had a few issues getting his words out and may have been set back by the issue that he chose the "you're like ___, because ___" structure for all three jokes, where Brian employed a wider variety of formatting techniques for his jokes.
Tim Groeschel, or "'Gay' Trevor Wilson," per the Roastmaster takes on fellow up-and-comer Doon Sandors next, opening the round.
"Doon's mom is an elementary school teacher. She tried to get him a job there, but you know how it is with Doon. 500 feet from children."
"Tim watches POV porn so he can live out his greatest sexual fantasy of being able to see his cock."
"Thanks for that, Baby Huey CK. Doon used to play soccer as a kid. Now he just plays the racist dad yelling slurs at the other kids."
"Tim lives with his mom. He's live with his dad but he gets winded digging six feet down."
"Where do you get off motherfucker? you look like a gravedigger gunning for the gold in my dad's teeth… alright, i'll give you another one. You look like fuckin cupid's angel for rapists"
"Fuck you, Tons N' Roses."
The Tons N' Roses line blows the room up to close a tight battle, but somehow the crowd's love for the joke is astonishingly transferred to its recipient, Tim, rather than Doon who actually said it. It was so perfect, and he wore it so well, it made the crowd adore him and he takes a pretty decisive vote despite an otherwise ultra-close round that might've gone to Doon if it were up to the judges. Regardless, this was a great fight and each deserves plenty of credit.
Zach Stein and Eric Abbenante both take sluggishly to the stage. Each becoming prolific undercard performers back after only two weeks, the judges lay into them with a sense of familiarity.
"You are the least confident person to have two buttons open on their shirt." – Mike Lawrence
"Zach looks like a fashion designer for open mikers." – Kim Congdon
Eric is up first.
"Zach has lost 15 friends to suicide, which is why girls won't even let him in the friend zone."
"Thanks, Heeb-ler Elf. Eric is a Jew whose mom smoked around him when he was a baby. That's his origin story for being comedy cancer."
"Zach loves prostitutes, because he pays them to do degrading things like come to his shows."
"Eric told me that he makes friends by always having weed on him and smoking people down. I guess it's easier for you to make fun of my sex life when you can't tell a friend from a whore."
"Zach blacked out over a hundred times last year. He's so jewish he actually counted."
"You muse for the word shylock. I've been a Jew for 28 years and never experienced a moment of anti-semitism. Eric got called a kike at his job on passover in Los Angeles. This guy would get voted out of Anne Frank's attic."
It's another split with the judges going for Eric and the decisive crowd vote declaring Zach the winner. "Heeb-ler Elf" is so goddamn funny, but might've been stepped on a bit, but in the end Zach takes it anyway despite a very strong showing from Eric that elicited praise from Jeff, calling it his best battle to date.
For the evening's final undercard matchup, Paige Wesley fires first against Aspergers' own, Keith Reza.
"Keith used to work at Ralph's. The pay was terrible, but for once he wasn't the only vegetable."
"Paige goes to UCLA and she studies English. But she doesn't know the meaning of the words diet, exercise, and not to open up her asshole to her uncle."
"Thank you, Special Ed Sheeran. You know, i might be fat, but Keith looks like his diet just consists of smaller autistic kids."
"Paige is such a big slut even her dad calls out her name when he's fuckin' her mom."
"You know, Keith, don't feel bad that joke bombed. Because when autism speaks, no one listens."
"That joke was funny cuz it's true… Paige has big boobs and whenever she takes off her bra, her tits fall down, hit the ground and cause an earthquake."
Keith's faltering second joke clearly costs him the round and Paige Wesley scores another solid win, with her "autism speaks" rebuttal absolutely killing.
Last up, in our headline bout, Tony Bartolone is still on the comeback trail looking to take down one of the show's newest main eventers, Sarah Keller. He leads out.
"Sarah Keller went to school for acting, which is weird b
ecause I didn't even know you needed a BFA to do donkey shows."
"Tony once went down on a girl with no legs, proving that the only kind of girl he can get is the kind that can't run away."
"How do you look like a pageant mom and her daughter."
"Tony is homeless. instead of asking girls to send nudes, he asks them to send foods."
"Which I would do if or if not I was homeless. I like food. Sarah used to cut herself. Not because she was depressed or anything, she was just trying to make a new whole to shove another dick in."
"Tony lives inside a factory. unbelievably, it's
not a cheesecake factory."
"Sarah had this big crisis the day her dad's identical twin brother died. To this day, she still doesn't know who molested her. "
"Tony looks like he eats the cheese that forms between his tits."
"Sarah's Dad is a drug addict and an alcoholic. he's addicted to everything except raising his daughter."
"Tony looks like the guy on Skid Row who explains the rules."
Neither has a dud, but the final judges' vote is unanimous for Sarah, with the only real criticism of Tony being for his lackluster energy and awkward delivery, which he explains as being just the way he talks. Tony is still unable to bust his slump, and Sarah stays on her months-long kill streak. A fitting end to an evening of relatively by-the-book battles with little controversy.

Hardly Used in excellent condition with case and strap.The Olympus 8-16×25 Zoom PC I Binoculars: For Sightseeing and Spectator Sport These Stylish and Compact Binos Score Big with a Powerful 16x ZoomFor when portability is as important as optical quality there is the Olympus PC I series of binoculars; aimed at the urban dwelling sports and sightseeing enthusiast, the 8-16×25 Zoom PC I features a sleek, stylish design yet compact dimensions. While great as a general use pair of binos, they excel when utilised for bird watching, if added to your kit bag when camping and hiking, plus are superb for use at sports events and when travelling.These standard porro prism type binos feature a multi-coated lens for maximum image brightness and contrast, high quality optics, plus the added worry-free feature of UV (ultraviolet) protection. Added to the mix are precisely ground prisms and lenses made of brightness-enhancing barium crown glass (Bak-4) to ensure clarity and brightness to the very edge of the field of view.Peace of mind and years of pleasure are further guaranteed thanks to a 25-year European warranty.Optical Perfection, Day or NightThis particular zoom model offers 8x to 16x magnification and a 25mm objective lens diameter.

While for daytime use a lens diameter of 21 to 25mm is ideal.Also worth considering for low light work is the exit pupil. Here that is 3.1 to 1.6 mm, which for 8×25 binoculars, for example, is arrived at via 25 divided by 8 = 3.1 exit pupil in mm, so beyond the 2-3mm which is generally thought of as being suitable for daylight use. Another thing to take into account is the field of view, which here, due to the zoom capability, is 79-51 metres, and is defined as the width of the viewable field at a distance of 1000m from the point of observation. Closest focusing distance is five metres.ersatile and Bright, These Binos Will Place Nature in the Palm of Your HandOffering an 8x to 16x zoom magnification to bring faraway points of interest that much closer plus a 25mm objective lens diameter, the 8-16×25 Zoom PC I Binoculars incorporate multi coated lenses to deliver maximum image brightness, visual impact and image defining contrast.Fast and easy focusing is provided courtesy of a large, centrally placed knob.

The actual field of view is 4.5 to 2.9 while the apparent angle of view is 36 to 46.4.These are also binoculars that will repay your original investment with years of good service. A case in point: a 25-year warranty is included with any purchase.

Tom Holland Needs Benedict Cumberbatch to Stop Him From Spoiling "Avengers: Infinity War"
Keep the lips zipped, dude!
By Allie Gemmill
Gareth Cattermole
Oh, Tom Holland. What are we going to do with you? He may be charming, British, and currently donning the Spider-Man suit for Avengers: Infinity War, but that doesn't mean he's able to keep all of the exciting details to himself when it comes time to discuss one of the biggest movies in theaters right now.
Tom has a bit of a history with Marvel Cinematic Universe spoilers, and it's gotten him into trouble with Marvel Studios in the past. So it's kinda not surprising that in many of the interviews he's been doing recently for Infinity War, he's been paired with costar Benedict Cumberbatch, who plays Doctor Strange in the film and is able to charmingly shush him whenever he gets a little too chatty. In fact, Benedict has had to hush Tom up so many times in the numerous interviews they've done together in recent weeks that a fan actually made a supercut of just those moments and posted it on Twitter.
The clips are only a few seconds each, but each one is better than the last. In the first clip, Tom prepares to answer a question about Infinity War — "Um, that's good question..." — before Benedict chimes in with, "I'll answer it."
In the next clip, Tom is a bit more loose-lipped. Answering a question that seems to have been about Guardians of the Galaxy, Tom tries to answer: "Whenever Chris Pratt —" which Benedict tries to literally bleep out by saying "Beeep!" and he does it again when Tom continues, "and Dave Bautista —" before laughing and catching on to why Benedict is trying to make him not accidentally spoil anything.
Fans were loving the cut and reacted with jokey comments like, "Tom Holland is Marvel's greatest threat." Tom and Benedict's back-and-forth is so charming, in fact, that it makes us wish there was a way for them to do a Spider-Man and Doctor Strange movie together. But after Infinity War...no, no, we won't spoil it for you. That's Tom's job.

Phoenix House, located in Carnelian Bay, overlooks Lake Tahoe. Just over 3,000 square feet, the house spans four floors, each lined with decks to allow for maximum views of the surrounding scenery.
Harvey would invite his students to Lake Tahoe during the summers to work on building the home, according to realtor.com. The name Phoenix House was symbolic of Harvey's rebirth after a series of personal tragedies, including the death of his daughter and the end of his marriage, according to listing agent Linda Granger.
There are many experimental features of the house, rooted in the Frank Lloyd Wright philosophy of "organic" design, according to realtor.com. Granger said nature's influence is evident, from the huge granite boulder in the middle of the living room, to a rushing creek running under the home, which can be viewed through glass from inside.

Why does == not work with decimal indexed for loop?
Running the code I see that in the first case, where only the first and last check should give an empty result, also other iterations give the "1×0 empty double row vector" output. For example, given that index=94.6 during debug, if I write the same line as "find(data==index)" it fails, if I write it with the corresponding index value it works (find(data==94.6) works). The positions where the check fails are always the same. The second for loop, with all the items matching, never fails.
Could it be a problem with the double format precision with logical operators? I have tried it in Matlab R2017a and R2013a, on different computers. I also tried to rewrite the same code without the find function, and the result is the same. If I change both data and index ranges, the behavior is the same but the check fails at different positions. All the numbers are in double format. If I multiply everything by 10, so that the numbers are integers, both loops work fine.
I would like to understand why, with decimal numbers, it doesn't work in just ONE case, the one where not all the numbers have a match.
Thank you both José-Luis and Guillaume for your complete replies. I would accept both answers if I could, thanks again!
"x = j:i:k creates a regularly-spaced vector x using i as the increment between elements. The vector elements are roughly equal to [j,j+i,j+2*i,...,j+m*i] where m = fix((k-j)/i)."
Emphasis on the roughly equal : You are running into the joys of double precision arithmetic. You should avoid comparing double precision numbers directly and use a tolerance.
You could use eps() to determine an adequate order of magnitude for the tolerance.
What you're seeing is expected and is inherent to the way numbers are stored on computers. You'll see the same behaviour with other programming languages.
This is actually a FAQ and is all down to the fact that numbers can't all be represented exactly (particularly 0.1).
The answer is then to never use == to compare floating point values (it's fine for integers) but always use a small tolerance appropriate for the magnitude of numbers you're using.

A Summer's Eve - a Campfire Circle Story - By Judi Phillips
Jason decided Lissa fit perfectly in his arms. It felt good to be able to comfort her. Like the time when they were kids and she'd skinned her knee falling off her bike.
She sighed, lifted her head and stepped back. "I don't know what to do."
He took her hand and led her to the couch and sat. "So tell me what was supposed to happen tonight?"
She stared at him before taking a seat beside him. "Haven't you ever celebrated Midsummer here?"
"Maybe a while ago, but this is around the time of my folks' anniversary. They mostly went out of town to the place where they stayed for their honeymoon. I bunked in with a friend."
"A bit of history. Nanna was something of a pagan and liked celebrating some of the Celtic holidays, especially the winter and summer solstice."
"Which is Midsummer."
She nodded. "Years ago she decided it would be fun to celebrate the day. She started it mostly for herself, but it grew until most everyone participated."
"So what do they do?"
"Mostly it's lots of good food and conversation. But the balefire is the special part.
He frowned. "Balefire?"
"That's the old word for bonfire. On a slip of paper, you write down something that's gone wrong during the year or something you regret having done, and toss the into the fire. You don't say what you've written, but as the paper burns, you can say, 'So mote it be gone'."
Sounded like a bunch of hocus pocus to him. "Interesting."
"I'm guessing you're skeptical."
Jason chuckled. "You caught me."
"What's really interesting, is that, crazy as it sounds, it works."
He was silent a minute, considering what she'd said. "I can see how it might make sense. Sort of like when you tell someone you're upset, you don't hang on to the resentment."
"Exactly."
She hadn't said anything about her grandmother, and he didn't see her in the camp. Probably explained why this was important to her.
Melissa shifted, trying to ease the tightness in her chest. She couldn't give up. "Sitting here isn't getting anything done."
"What can I help with?"
"I'm not even sure where to begin." She blinked away tears that threatened to spill over. "This is not how this day is supposed to go. I want to do this to honor Nanna Jo's memory."
"Maybe that's what you need to write on your piece of paper this year."
She smiled. "That's the best advice I've heard today."
"So where do we start?"
She appreciated that Jason was willing to pitch in. "I guess I need to treat this as if it's an unknown product Dad's setting up a PR campaign for."
"Or like using a client's amateur design to build the house of their dreams."
Lissa set her jaw and stood. "We need to act as if this will happen."
"Let's get the food ready first. Then we can figure out the rest."
"Sounds like a plan." In the kitchen, she gathered the ingredients for coleslaw.
"I'm going to my camp for the bratwurst I brought. And I'll pick up some of Mom's relish."
"Yum. She makes the best relish. Better bring a lot. Everyone loves it."
Jason left and Lissa started grating cabbage and carrots. She hummed one of Nanna's favorite tunes. Maybe things would work out for the evening.
Just as Lissa finished the coleslaw, Jason returned with brats and buns. He also brought some and fixings, sliced onions and green peppers for grilling, a jar of sauerkraut, and of course, mustard, ketchup and his mother's relish.
"Did anyone tell you what a great guy you are?"
He stared at her for a moment. "Not by a girl as pretty as you."
Her cheeks warmed. "I wasn't looking for a compliment."
"But you got one anyway." He grinned, his eyes crinkling at the corners.
She glanced at the clock, noting the day was racing by. "Now that we're even in the mutual admiration department, let's start setting up outside."
Distracted by her swirling feelings, she had failed to pay attention to the weather.
"When did those clouds roll in?" Jason pointed at the sky. "I didn't notice them when I walked here."
"Let's hope it will blow right past." She crossed the road to the open area circled by the cul-de-sac and walked to the outdoor fireplace beside the fire circle. It had been built right after the original camps were finished. Constructed using stones from clearing the lots, the chimney was nearly five feet high. Inside, there was a restaurant-sized grill, and either wood or charcoal could be used for cooking. Families often shared meals and grilled here rather than at their camps.
She checked to make sure there was charcoal in the storage box. A couple of bags, that's plenty.
As Jason helped her arrange the picnic tables close to the fireplace and campfire ring, thunder rumbled in the distance.

Campfire Story - A Summer's Eve - Part 1 - By Judi Phillips
Midmorning on Friday, Melissa Perkins hummed a tune as she finished loading her car and closed the hatch door. Since she'd been a little girl, Midsummer's Eve had been her favorite holiday. Nanna Jo told the most wonderful stories about Stonehenge, ancient Celtic traditions and fairies. Lissa's favorite was the one that advised sitting in a fairy garden under a full moon. If you sat quietly, you might glimpse little sparkles of light, the fairies dancing to celebrate the longest day of the year.
She'd taken a vacation day on Friday, a perk as the office manager at Dad's PR firm. He knew how important the celebration was to Lissa, especially this year. She wanted to make sure everything was perfect for the balefire, the ancient term for the solstice bonfire.
An ominous thump, thump, wabble coming from the back of the car sent her heart to her throat. She coasted to the side of the road. Muttering beneath her breath, she exited her car and inspected the rear tires. One was flat. Why, today of all days? She needed to be at Dragons B Welcome, Nanna's camp. In addition to today being Summer Solstice, it had been Nanna Jo's birthday--two reasons to celebrate. A couple of years after she and Gramps had built their camp, she had started a Midsummer Eve tradition at Campfire Circle and Lissa had promised Nanna she would continue the tradition. Lissa hadn't been able to face the sadness of doing it last year, but nothing was going to stop her this year.
She swiped her phone open. It was nearly out of power. Not a good omen. She dialed for roadside service, hoping it wouldn't die before the call went through. If luck was with her, she could be on her way in a reasonably short time.
An hour later she was back on the road. Driving through North Windham, she passed the safety building and saw that the fire danger level was closing in on the red zone. Made sense because there hadn't been much rain this month, but it could mean tomorrow night might not happen. And that would be a huge disappointment.
Jason Dinsmore had closed the first major contract since he'd started his own architect firm, Dinsmore & Associates, the associate being his office assistant. To celebrate, he'd decided to close his office for the entire weekend, rather than stay open a half day on Saturday. He had a small drafting table and all the essential gear at his camp, Black Bear Inn. He'd designed and built it right after receiving his degree, and named for the uninvited guest he'd seen that summer. At camp, he could begin making detailed drawings without the interruptions from e-mail and phone calls.
Arriving at Black Bear Inn, he popped the trunk and grabbed his duffle bag. Halfway up the path, he spotted a flyer stuck between the screen and inside door. He was about to crumple it when the words "Welcome Mid-Summer" caught his attention. He'd been to a few of the celebrations over the years. It was nice chance to enjoy the company of other Campfire Circle folks - especially Lissa Perkins. He thought her grandmother had passed, but maybe not. Josephine had always been the one to organize the festivities.
Good thing he'd brought a package of brats to grill. He could contribute those and a bag of chips. And maybe some of Mom's special zucchini relish. He had the key to the camp if his parents weren't here.
Just before noon, he stretched and pushed aside his drawings. He'd made good progress. Time to see who was here. He walked around the circle. It seemed most everyone and decided to come to their camps this weekend.
At the next to the last house on the circle, he recognized Lissa's car parked in the driveway and knocked on the door. "Just a minute," a warbley voice called. The door opened a crack and Lissa peered out, eyes red.
"You okay?"
"Can I come in?"
She pulled the door open.
"What's the matter?"
"Tonight's not going to happen."
"I'm not sure what you mean."
"You know." Tears welled in her eyes. "The bonfire."
He wrapped his arms around her and pulled her close. "Why not?"
"I just called the fire department. The fire danger's too high. I'm going to have to cancel." A sob caught in her throat.

Movie Review of "Edge of Tomorrow" (PG-13) - review by Daniel Kilgallon
Run Time: 113 min
Edge of Tomorrow is a new sci-fi action movie directed by Doug Liman (The Bourne Trilogy). This film stars Tom Cruise and Emily Blunt alongside Bill Paxton and Brendan Gleeson in supporting roles. Heading into the theater, I honestly wasn't expecting much more than two hours of fun, sci-fi action and some cool explosions from this summer blockbuster. Edge of Tomorrow completely shocked me as it provided all of that at the highest level possible, plus much, much, more.
At the start of the movie, it is shown that an alien species of "Mimics" has invaded Earth and been at war with humanity's United Defense Force (UDF) for the past five years. The UDF has just installed new tech suits called Jackets that are basically armed mechanized exoskeletons. These Jackets are to be immediately used in combat against the Mimics. Sgt. Rita Vrataski (Emily Blunt) is hailed a war hero and a cultural icon after using her Jacket to kill hundreds of Mimics.
Major William Cage (Tom Cruise) is a UDF spokesman and officer of the United States Army. Ultimately, after a series of events, he is stripped of his rank and forced onto a combat team, despite the fact that he has no field experience. After that, Cage is sent to an airport base and is deployed the following morning. Eventually he is killed by a Mimic during the war, but strangely enough he wakes up at the airport on the previous morning. Cage soon realizes that he is stuck in a time loop and every time he dies, he basically resets to that day before the invasion. Now Cage must take advantage of his situation, develop his combat skills and join forces with Sgt. Rita Vrataski in order to help the UDF defeat the Mimics and save our world.
Right from the start, I had an absolute blast with Edge of Tomorrow. Tom Cruise and Emily Blunt had outstanding chemistry as the two main characters and brought a ton of heart to the movie. There was a perfect balance of exciting action and meaningful story, plus there was a lot of great humor blended in. The visual effects were amazing, the battle scenes were incredibly shot, and the movie was just thrilling from start to finish. Edge of Tomorrow is totally original and completely phenomenal - one of the best sci-fi films I have seen in a long time.

Movie review of A Million Ways to Die in the West (R) - review by Daniel Kilgallon
A Million Ways to Die in the West is a western comedy, written, directed and produced by Family Guy creator Seth MacFarlane. This is the second live action film he has directed, following the 2012 comedy Ted, in which he voiced a talking teddy bear. Seth MacFarlane stars once more, as a human being, in A Million Ways to Die in the West alongside a supporting cast of: Charlize Theron, Liam Neeson, Amanda Seyfried, Neil Patrick Harris and Giovanni Ribisi. As a big fan of Family Guy and Ted, I was really looking forward to seeing this movie and had big expectations heading into the theater. A Million Ways to Die in the West surpassed my high hopes as I found it to be absolutely hilarious from start to finish.
Albert Stark (Seth MacFarlane) is a cowardly sheep farmer living in Arizona in the year 1882. Early on in the film, he ducks out of a gun fight with a cowboy and as a result, breaks up with the love of his life, Louise (Amanda Seyfried). Albert becomes quite depressed when he discovers that she left him for Foy, a wealthy man with a magnificent mustache. However, he soon befriends the mysterious gunslinger Anna (Charlize Theron) who helps him regain his confidence and find his true courage. Soon, Albert must put his newfound bravery to the test when Anna's husband, the infamous outlaw Clinch Leatherwood (Liam Neeson) learns of their relationship and comes seeking revenge.
For better or worse, the controversial super-ego of Seth MacFarlane is clearly on full display in A Million Ways to Die in the West. This film's story arc is powered by an endless string of his trademark random pop-culture references and irreverent jokes, as well as a few of MacFarlane's signature extravagant musical numbers. It does all of this while serving as one giant parody of other classic western films.
As I mentioned earlier, I am a huge fan of MacFarlane's work, so I found this film to be completely hysterical the whole way through. The storyline is ridiculous, over-the-top and very predictable, but for me that only adds to the amusement. Some may find Seth MacFarlane's distinct style of humor to be incredibly offensive, but if that doesn't bother you go ahead and see A Million Ways to Die in the West. I can guarantee you some great laughs from this outrageously funny western.
Movie Review - X-Men Days of Future Past (PG-13)
X-Men: Days of Future Past is the seventh installment in the X-Men franchise, serving as a sequel to the 2011 film X-Men: First Class as well as a follow-up to The Wolverine spin-off released last summer. Bryan Singer, director of X-Men and X2, finally returns to direct his third film in the blockbuster series. This new movie features old and new faces from the franchise in an outstanding ensemble cast. Some of the biggest names include: Hugh Jackman, James McAvoy, Michael Fassbender, Jennifer Lawrence, Nicholas Hoult, Patrick Stewart, Ian McKellen, Halle Berry and Game of Thrones star Peter Dinklage. Having heard overwhelmingly positive reviews and being a big fan of the series, I had huge expectations heading into this film.
X-Men: Days of Future Past begins ten years after the events of The Wolverine. In the dystopian future of 2023, few mutants survive while sentient robots known as the Sentinels strive to exterminate all mutants and humans alike. The surviving mutants include reunited Charles Xavier (Patrick Stewart) and Magneto (Ian McKellen), along with the rest of the original X-Men. In a desperate attempt to alter the course of history, the X-Men decide to send Wolverine (Hugh Jackman) back in time to 1973, in his body of old so he can unite with their younger selves in order to prevent this dark future from ever happening. In order to do this, they must prevent the shape-shifting Mystique (Jennifer Lawrence) from killing Bolivar Trask (Peter Dinklage), the man who created the Sentinels in the first place.
I loved absolutely everything about this time-travelling installment of the X-Men series. Usually time-travel movies can be so confusing and hard to follow, but the fast-moving plot of this film was so well-written, cohesive and easy to understand. Every single performance in this film was outstanding, particularly James McAvoy as young Xavier and Michael Fassbender as young Magneto. I thought those two had amazing chemistry in X-Men: First Class, but they took that to the next level in this sequel. Hugh Jackman was better than ever as the Wolverine in his seventh portrayal of the character and all of the returning stars were equally great. Furthermore, the thrilling action sequences were brilliantly filmed with an incredibly smart use of visual effects. Overall, X-Men: Days of Future Past is without a doubt the best X-Men movie yet and easily one of the best comic-book films ever made.

Edge computing set to soar over next decade
UK organisations reveal strong appetite for edge and accelerated cloud adoption following the pandemic.
11 months ago Posted in Cloud Design + Optimisation Hosting + Colocation
Nearly nine in ten (89%) UK IT decision-makers say that edge computing will be important to their business over the next ten years, according to new research commissioned byTelehouse International Corporation of Europe. This is despite only a quarter of organisations (26%) currently deploying edge computing, highlighting the desire to bring applications closer to data sources by 2030.
Edge is just one infrastructure area set to grow over the next decade, alongside cloud and a shift away from on-premise models. Three quarters expect the volume of data they manage to at least double over the next 10 years, impacting infrastructure requirements. Nearly two thirds (62%) say investment in data centre infrastructure will increase and over half (51%) plan to migrate applications to a hosted private or public cloud platform. Less than a quarter (24%) expect to be deploying on-premise infrastructure, with the average amount of infrastructure on-premise to fall from 54% today to 32%.
Organisations also expect to face a host of infrastructure challenges in 2030, including maintaining security and compliance (36%), reducing the environmental impact of IT infrastructure (30%) and selecting cost effective cloud solutions (27%). Cloud also topped the list of focus areas for the next ten years, cited by nearly half of IT decision-makers (44%), followed by cyber security (40%) and 5G (29%).
Commenting on the findings, Mark Pestridge, Senior Customer Experience Director, Telehouse says: "It's not surprising that appetite for edge computing is growing. It's now more important than ever for businesses to store, access and analyse and access exponential levels of data at record speeds, and technologies like edge and cloud will be critical in enabling this. Ultimately, the key for success for organisations will be building the right infrastructure foundations and connectivity, so choosing the right partner will be critical."
Covid-19 has also had a big impact on infrastructure strategy with 91% planning to make changes to their IT infrastructure following the pandemic. One in four say they will increase bandwidth/connectivity, while 38% say they will accelerate and shift more workloads to the cloud (38%) and over a third (34%) will increase capacity in the data centre.
Sue Daley, Associate Director, Technology & Innovation at techUK commented "As organisations begin to rebuild, recover and reinvent themselves, current digital and more transformative technologies, such as cloud, Edge and AI, are going to be key enablers for what comes next.
"The research indicates it is not the adoption of one single technology that will hold the key: the convergence of several innovative technologies will become increasingly important to businesses as they look for innovative and greener ways of working and doing business. The ability of organisations to scale up their adoption and use of these technologies is what will help to drive organisations forward."
The need to reduce environmental footprint was also clear in the research, expected to be the second biggest challenge by 2030. The majority of IT decision-makers (86%) say sustainability is important in their IT infrastructure decision-making process, yet almost a third (32%) say they don't currently monitor the environmental footprint of their IT operations.

Energy consumed by data centres is attracting more attention as a matter of concern, as global computing capacity continues to rapidly increase. Already, data centres use an estimated 200 terawatt hours (TWh) each year, more than the national energy consumption of some countries.
Cloud adoption continues to be undermined
Veritas Technologies has published the findings of new research highlighting the damage that workplace blame cultures are having on the success of cloud adoption. Veritas found that UK businesses are losing critical data, such as customer orders and financial data, because office workers are too scared or too embarrassed to report data loss or ransomware issues when using cloud applications, such as Microsoft Office 365.

This Article explores the history of the Ex Post Facto Clause, including the Supreme Court's seminal 1798 decision in Calder v. Bull, and analyzes the results of a survey of ex post facto claims decided in state courts from 1992-2002, the first study to catalog the types of claims generated among the states, and the institutional response of state courts to them. The author provides an overview of the claims resolved in state courts, examining the nature of the laws challenged, how the challenges fared, and the rationales used by courts in their dispositions. Discussion focuses on two abiding sources of confusion in ex post facto jurisprudence: the interpretation of the categories of laws the Calder decision prescribed as being ex post facto, and the ongoing uncertainty over the definition and treatment of laws deemed procedural (as opposed to substantive) in nature. These areas of uncertainty, it is argued, not only inspire confusion among the courts, but also serve to undermine the crucial structural role of the Ex Post Facto Clause itself- intended by the Framers to guard against the potent political forces motivating state legislatures to adopt criminal laws with retroactive effect.

The Dental and Medical Council has inducted 106 newly qualified doctors and dentists including 10 practitioners to undergo supervised training in accordance with the Council's regulatory standards. This was at a well-attended ceremony held in Accra.
The newly qualified health practitioners are from the University of Ghana School of Medicine and Dentistry, Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology School of Medical Science; and Foreign trained practitioners who were successful at Council's registration examinations at a time when there still persists inequity in the distribution of healthcare professionals especially doctors and dentists in Ghana.
In a speech read on behalf, Minister for Health, Kwaku Agyeman Manu, said, the country does not have the right numbers, the right mix of skills and expertise in Ghana's districts areas. He, therefore, encouraged the dentists and medical doctors to accept postings to accredited district hospitals where their services are most needed especially during the health professionals' second-year housemanship.
The Ministry on its part according to the Health Minister had established the Quality Management Unit at the Ministry of Health to ensure that Ghanaians receive the best of healthcare services irrespective of their geographical location. The Health Ministry, he explained, is committed to improving upon access of Ghanaians to essentials and quality health services through the provision of the necessary health infrastructure, equipment, and logistics including the deployment of appropriate technology.
Commenting on the attitude and conduct of healthcare professionals particularly doctors and dentists, he said, in keeping with the high regards that the society accords healthcare professionals they must also exhibit a corresponding high standard of professionalism.
Professor P.K. Nyame, the Chairman of Medical and Dental Council in his delivery said in pursuit of the Council's mandate of guiding the profession and protecting the public, it has challenges. The challenges he stated, is the pursuit and maintenance of standards.
He said "the number of admissions into our medical schools is rising. We are yet to assess how the increased admissions into Senior High Schools will impact the medical and dental schools.
Dr Anthony Nsiah Asare, the Director General of Ghana Health Service [GHS] said his outfit is worried about doctors rejecting posting to rural areas. He said there was a need for newly qualified doctors to be bonded to serve in rural areas.
Research conducted by GHS, he said, revealed that half of the newly qualified doctors refused posting to rural areas. The Director-General of GHS said the service would put a proper health management system in place to ensure equitable distribution of doctors.
The Medical and Dental Council is a statutory body under the Ministry of Health. The objective of the Council is to secure in the public interest the highest standards in the training and practice of medicine and dentistry in Ghana.

InfraRed backed Statera Energy enters into strategic partnership with Statkraft to faciliate low carbon transition in the UK
InfraRed Capital Partners ("InfraRed") is pleased to announce that Statera Energy ("Statera"), the UK's leading developer, owner and operator of flexible infrastructure, has entered into a 15-year strategic partnership with Statkraft to realise a 1 GW portfolio of utility scale flexible generation and energy storage projects.
Statera Energy will provide one of the UK's largest battery facilities to store renewable energy at times of excess production. Statera will also deliver high efficiency gas reciprocating engines to flexibly generate electricity at times of under-production or peak demand. The assets will complement Statkraft's 3.8 GW UK renewable generation portfolio, contributing to a reduction in conventional, less flexible, fossil fuel generation and carbon emissions in the UK's electricity system.
Statera, backed by global investment manager InfraRed Capital Partners, will continue to develop, build, own and operate its flexible gas generation and energy storage portfolio throughout the partnership. As new assets come online, they will be integrated into Statkraft's virtual power plant and advanced trading platform. Statkraft will provide market optimisation, trading and risk management services to the assets.
Statkraft, strives to be a leading route-market-services provider to ensure a secure, renewable and cost-efficient electricity system of the future. Flexible power generation will continue to form an essential part of enabling the viability of renewables in the coming decades, at the lowest cost to consumers.
Duncan Dale, head of Statkraft's markets business in UK, said:
"Statkraft recognises the importance of flexible power generation for the provision of secure energy supply in the years to come until multi-day mass energy storage becomes economically viable. It is vital that any new generation capacity is highly efficient and ultra-flexible, like Statera's.
We have partnered with Statera because of their project development approach and relentless optimisation of the project design and operations. Everything about these projects suggests that new efficiencies can be made, which means lower carbon emissions and lower costs to the consumer. The energy market and the UK's transition to a low carbon future should benefit greatly from unlocking this potential."
Tom Vernon, Managing Director of Statera Energy, said:
"Statera is excited to be able to continue to deliver best-in-class energy storage and highly flexible and efficient gas generation to the renewable energy market in the UK. We intend to do our part to support security of supply and facilitate the low carbon transition enabling a more renewable future.
We have partnered with Statkraft because of its industry-leading trading capabilities and innovative approach to the future energy market. The UK generation mix and electricity market design will continue to evolve rapidly in the coming years, becoming increasingly volatile and challenging to trade. Statkraft will optimise the increasing dependence that its renewable portfolio has on flexible generation and storage, to help balance the electricity system using Statera's assets for the next 15 years."

Aggeliki Dimitriadou is a weaving artist from Greece. Her research regarding spiritual links between European and Asian traditions, most likely Greek, Scandinavian and Japanese, guided her to work with Japanese saori looms.
The physical substance of the natural materials she uses is the guide that conditions the composition of her works. The raw most unprocessed fibers maintain their natural character that is expressed in the weavings as an instantané that captures the critical moment of an archetypal human creation process-weaving.
Her color palette of earth tones is an amplified version of the ancient Greek painter Polygnotus four color palette as it contains the colors black, white, red and a scale from the lightest ochre to the heaviest brown. A choice that is meant to underline the dialectical moment between the artist and nature.
Nevertheless, in her works are obvious, most of the times, memories of the weaving procedure, such as free warp recalling its position on the loom before the weaving of the weft, olive branches as tying rods – parts of the loom remaining on the art work, as well as vertical, horizontal and spatial positioning as memories of various types of looms mainly those who exist only during the weaving procedure.
Aggeliki Dimitriadou is a self taught weaving artist from Greece.

A Computer Can Recognize Emotions Better Than Most People
WASHINGTON (Reuters) - In the ever-expanding contest between artificial intelligence and the ordinary human mind, you can chalk up another one for the computer.
Scientists have developed a computer system with sophisticated pattern recognition abilities that performed much better than humans in differentiating between people experiencing genuine pain and people who were just faking it.
In a study published in the journal Current Biology this week, human subjects did no better than chance - about 50 percent - in correctly judging if a person was feigning pain after seeing videos in which some people were and some were not.
The computer was right 85 percent of the time. Why? The researchers say its pattern-recognition abilities successfully spotted distinctive aspects of facial expressions, particularly involving mouth movements, that people generally missed.
"We all know that computers are good at logic processes and they've long out-performed humans on things like playing chess," said Marian Bartlett of the Institute for Neural Computation at the University of California-San Diego, one of the researchers.
"But in perceptual processes, computers lag far behind humans and have a lot of trouble with perceptual processes that humans tend to find easy, including speech recognition and visual recognition. Here's an example of a perceptual process that the computer is able to do better than human observers," Bartlett said in a telephone interview.
For the experiment, 25 volunteers each recorded two videos.
In the first, each of the volunteers immersed an arm in lukewarm water for a minute and were told to try to fool an expert into thinking they were in pain. In the second, the volunteers immersed an arm in a bucket of frigid ice water for a minute, a genuinely painful experience, and were given no instructions on what to do with their facial expressions.
The researchers asked 170 other volunteers to assess which people were in real discomfort and which were faking it.
After they registered a 50 percent accuracy rate, which is no better than a coin flip, the researchers gave the volunteers training in recognizing when someone was faking pain. Even after this, the volunteers managed an accuracy rate of only 55 percent.
The computer's vision system included a video camera that took images of a person's facial expressions and decoded them. The computer had been programmed to recognize that one kind of facial movement combinations suggested true pain and another kind suggested faked pain.
"It's looking at what 20 facial muscles are doing in every frame of video," Bartlett added.
'SADNESS AT A FUNERAL'
So why are people so lousy at spotting a faker? The human face transmits an abundance of information including expressions of emotion and pain. But people also are adept at simulating emotions, some are so good they routinely can deceive others.
"Human facial expressions sometimes convey genuinely felt emotions, and some other times convey emotions not felt but required by a particular social context, for example expressing gratitude after receiving a terrible gift or sadness at a funeral," said the University of Toronto's Kang Lee, who studies lying in children and adults and was one of the scientists who conducted the research.
The computer system proved far better than people at spotting subtle differences between involuntary and voluntary facial movements that underpin sincerity, the researchers said.
"We can envisage in the very near future a widely available and inexpensive computer vision system that is capable of recognizing subtle emotions," Lee said by e-mail.
"Such a system can not only be used to detect deception to prevent medical fraud or to help homeland security but also recognize emotional states of patients who may not be able to communicate very well due to impairments or inability."
Such a system also potentially could be used in law enforcement and screening job applicants, the researchers said.
Bartlett co-founded a San Diego-based start-up company called Emotient Inc to find commercial applications for the facial expression recognition system, focusing on the retail and healthcare fields, she said.
