THE ESCORT (1997) A movie review by Chuck Dowling Copyright 1997 Chuck's Movie Reviews
The Escort (1997) NO STARS out of ***** - Running Time: 90 minutes.
 Get this plot though: 15 or so years ago, one girl tries to kiss another girl, making the other girl feel "uncomfortable". As a result, the girl who attempted the kiss commits suicide. Flash forward to now. The dead girl's sister has become a high-priced call girl and one day sees an ad in the newspaper for a room for rent. As it turns out, the room is being rented out by that very same girl who didn't want to be kissed 15 years earlier. This sets the hooker's sinister plans of revenge into action, a plan she's been working on for 15 years.
Now the sister becoming a whore, how does that fit into the ultimate plan of revenge? It's never a factor into anything (well, except to add pointless sexual scenes to the already stretched thin plot). And what would she have done if there was never an ad in the paper, or if she missed reading the paper that day? Are we supposed to believe that her whole plan was to become a slut, read the paper every day for 15 years, answer every ad pertaining to a room for rent, and just hope that one day her target happens to place an ad, so her elaborate scheme can finally begin? Come on! [R]

This was the first day of class and we had done some fun intro projects to Digital Fab. The fisrt activity we had did was to make a container out of straws to try and capture a golfball from 6ft high. My group consisted of Megan, Dan, and Bakari. My contribution to the group was to build and the neccassry parts for the both projects.


‘Peace prayer’: Muslim choir from restive Thai south to sing for pope
by AFPGripped by nervous excitement, young Muslim singers from Thailand’s conflict-plagued south gather for choir practice ahead of a performance of a lifetime — for Pope Francis himself, who is in Bangkok as part of his whirlwind Asia tour.
Wearing headscarves and school uniforms, students assembled in a university auditorium to practice ballads specially written for the pontiff, who arrived in Bangkok Wednesday for a four-day visit.
But for some of the singers, the performance was about more than just hitting the right notes.
It offers a rare chance for them to show a different side of a region that often makes headlines for a conflict that has killed more than 7,000 people, mostly Muslim and Buddhist followers.
“We’re trying to say that we are not fundamentalists,” said 15-year-old Furkon Tasa.
He is the student leader of the 31-member Attarkia Islamiah Institute choir from Narathiwat, one of three southernmost provinces where a conflict simmers as shadowy Malay-Muslim militants fight for greater autonomy.
The clashes are characterised by tit-for-tat attacks that usually target symbols of the Thai state and its security forces.
Furkon says the songs are a chance to show that people from different faiths can be united.
“With music, we can sing and communicate with anyone,” he told AFP.
His choir will perform for the Pope on Friday at Chulalongkorn University, joined by a group of ethnic Christian minorities and the resident concert choir.
They all held a full rehearsal together for the first time Thursday, singing “Peace Prayer” and “Songs of Freedom”, both composed specifically for Francis.
The Pope has made religious harmony a main theme of his visit to the Buddhist-majority country, the first papal trip since 1984. He is due to stay in Thailand until Saturday, when he will head to Japan.
While the students acknowledged a conflict that has worsened over the past 15 years, they also expressed concern it had created an entirely negative picture of their homes.
“We are Muslims. We are here to spread love,” said Arisa Mamat, 17.
The idea for the joint performance came after the students, who had previously sung in royal ceremonies, met the Christian singers at a competition.
Attarkiah school manager Phaisan Toryib said it was also a good chance for the Muslim singers to mingle with Thais from other faiths and express themselves.
“Now they have a space to show who they are,” he said.

Boy spooge for $25 a shot
Omaha World-Herald | Submitted by: wingnut
"Florea, 35, said he would give the boys pornographic magazines and ask
them to masturbate because he needed the semen for research on sperm counts
or to find a cure for prostate cancer. The boys, he said, would comply.
He told Henthorn he would pay them $20 or $25 for the semen, which they would
deposit in small containers that he then stored in the freezer. He said he
made videotapes, which he later destroyed, of boys masturbating."

Bare bellies provoke a wobbly
Sydney Morning Herald | Submitted by: Ross
Last week a group of angry young women stormed the offices of The Newcastle
Herald to protest against columnist Jeff Corbett and his opinion of female
midriff fashions, "belly blubber" and "horribly deep navels"... "At an age
when girls should be striving to be pleasing to the eye, the male eye, these
young women were going to serious lengths to expose an acre of wobbling
excess. Haven't they looked in the mirror?"... Then he described exposed
bellies as a form of terrorism."

Please don't sneeze on the Moon
Guardian | Submitted by: Ann Onymous
"In November 1969, Apollo 12 landed just 170 yards from Surveyor 3, a
robotic craft that had achieved the first soft lunar landing by an American
probe two and a half years before. Parts from the TV camera on Surveyor 3
were brought back by the astronauts, under sterile conditions, and
between 50 and 100 living micro-organisms were extracted from the polyurethane
foam insulation that covered its interior circuit boards... The astronauts
ferried back the contents of a sneeze by a worker assembling Surveyor 3...
The microbes did live, in the frigid conditions and vacuum of space, for years after leaving the more hospitable environment in which they originated."

Canadian Press | Submitted by: Gorg
"A former porn star who admitted profiting from insider information she
received from a Wall Street executive was sentenced on Wednesday to three
months in prison. "I did a lot of wrong things, but I'm an adventurous
Aries and a Canadian," Kathryn Gannon, who appeared as Marylin Star in several
adult films, said outside federal court in Manhattan.

Trouble for the Church of Geno
Hartford Courant | Submitted by: Son of Benway
"The message, in big blue letters in a Main Street repair shop, is unusually
direct: "GENO IS GOD." Ken Bernacky put the sign in the window of his store,
Stereo Surgeons, seven months ago as a tribute to Geno Auriemma, coach of the
University of Connecticut women's basketball team. But members of the church
across the street see the sign as blasphemy. Now the town is demanding that
Bernacky remove the sign by the close of business today... 'Maybe I do worship
someone or something called Geno and he is my God,' Bernacky said."

Satan flies Air Canada
Calgary Herald | Submitted by: Gorg
"A deranged Calgary man returning from a religious pilgrimage to Bosnia
was taken into custody Wednesday at Calgary International Airport after
attacking a passenger and calling him Satan on an Air Canada flight from
Frankfurt. Eight passengers and flight crew struggled in the aisle for
several minutes to subdue the man, believed to be in his mid-30s... They
managed to restrain his arms and knees with duct tape and seat-belts."

Free entry to the Plant Sale through the Amphitheatre gates.
Red Butte Garden Amphitheatre
Please enter through the north-facing Amphitheatre gates. See parking section below.
• The Garden offers an impressive selection of herbs, specialty annuals, vegetables, sun and shade perennials, ornamental grasses, roses, vines, shrubs, conifers, trees, and the best selection of heirloom vegetables, native and water-wise plants you'll find in one location. Find plants for any situation, including bee-friendly and high-altitude plants
We also offer a variety of organic gardening products such as fertilizers, and coco-fiber that when mixed into your garden or container soil, aids with water retention.
Click the links below to see lists of the different plants offered:
A symbol with an outline of the state of Utah means it's a native plant. Be aware that not all native plants prefer low-water. Utah has many native plants that require consistent moisture.
An orange symbol with a bee means the plant is bee friendly.
A green symbol with a mountain image means the plant is hardy at high elevations.
Be sure to check water requirements listed on the ID cards, whether by text or sticker.
With our Garden staff and volunteers, there will be plenty of qualified help to answer your plant and gardening questions.
 We have a few shopping carts and plenty of cardboard plant trays.
From the four-way stop sign at Chipeta and Wakara Way, turn left (or north) and follow the signs to the Red Butte Garden Amphtheatre. Enter through the concert general admission gate.

From Amitabh Bachchan to Rishi Kapoor, B-town celebs extend Guru Purab wishes
by TIMESOFINDIA.COMSikh Devotees around the globe are celebrating 550th birth anniversary of Sikhism founder Guru Nanak Dev. To mark this special day, People offered prayers and took a holy dip in the 'sarovar'. On this day, Gurudwaras are all decked up and seek blessings of Guru Nanak Dev ji.
Since midnight, social media is flooded with Guru Purab wishes. Our B-town celebs too took to their social media handles to wishes their followers. From Amitabh Bachchan to Rishi Kapoor, stars extended good wishes on Twitter.
Rishi shared pictures from his films in which he played the character of a Sikh man. He wrote, ''On the auspicious occasion of”Guru Pita Shree Guru Nanak Devjis” 550th birth anniversary. Prakash Purab di lakh lakh wadhaiyan!''. On the other hand, Big B wrote, ''“ਸਤਿਗੁਰ ਨਾਨਕ ਪ੍ਰਗਟਿਆ ਮਿਟੀ ਧੁੰਧੁ ਜਗਿ ਚਾਨਣੁ ਹੋਆ।” “SatGuru Nanak Pargateya Mitti
Dund Jag Chanan Hoya!”#GuruPurabGreetingsToAll#GuruNanakJayanti #550YearsOfGuruNanakDe''.

The Blockchain is a light and flexible system that retains qualities that allow it to run independently of centralized organizations such as banks, governments or companies. It is a decentralized technology, supported and managed by the participants of the system. In other words: by the people for the people. It provides security and accountability for all parties and therefore removes the need for many kinds of 'middle men' that make money by taking a cut for themselves during an exchange between two parties. In the coming decades the blockchain will facilitate the most democratic and efficient systems that have ever existed.
Those that created the system usually keep a portion of the cryptocurrency that represents the value of the system and the only way for them to increase their value is for the system to become increasingly popular. They cannot charge a fee in the system and because of this the creators act more like a nonprofit foundation than a company or corporation.The blockchain is an immutable ledger and because of this it is a fantastic place for recording contracts between multiple parties. If a contract on the blockchain is changed, the previous version of the contract will always be available. In many situations this removes the need for agreements to be held by an unbiased third party, such as a lawyer. If there is foul play, and one party decides to change the contract, without the other parties consent, the proof that a contract has been altered will always be available.
The blockchain allows 'voting' via a few methods. It is an immutable ledger and therefore a fantastic place to implement tradition voting systems because votes cannot be altered once they are recorded. Another method to vote is simply by participating within the blockchain system or withdrawing your participation. A blockchain is managed and run by the people in the system, if the blockchain is to be changed or altered in a way that the majority of the systems participants do not approve, then they can refuse to participate. The people making the change are in the same boat as the community. If the community decides to migrate to a competing blockchain, they will lose everything they have invested in the current one. No one can change a blockchain without the community's consent.
An excellent example of this is on November 8th, 2017 a "fork" based on bitcoin called Seqwit2x, that was meant to take place in the following week, was cancelled. It was cancelled because the bitcoin community overwhelmingly disagreed with the forks purpose and association with private parties.As with any currency, cryptocurrencies must have a means of processing transactions that take place on the system. In order to accomplish this, participants within the crypto's community volunteer to have their machines process transactions that take place on that cryptocurrencies blockchain. For the processing power they donated they are often compensated a set amount of that cryptocurrency.
Transaction information and contracts can be stored using blockchain technology but the blockchain and the information on it, must be physically stored in computer memory. Just like the systems transactions, this responsibility is shared throughout the crypto community. Volunteers share space on their computers, mobile phones and hard drives. The blockchain is broken up into many pieces and spread across all these devices and as a bonus the information is duplicated and saved in the same manner, so that if one person's device crashes the information lost on that device can be retrieved from another. Some blockchains such as Substratium pay their users when they donate a portion of memory from their computers hard drive.
Decentralizing computation power is possible on the blockchain. The concept is for people to donate the processing power on their computers to a decentralized network on a blockchain and by adding the computational power of all the computers in the system a supercomputer can be made. Anybody who wishes to use this worldwide supercomputer would have access to it by paying a fee to those who contributed their computing power to the system.


Open Tree of Life
On the 30th of March, Dimitris showed us how to use the Open Tree of Life in a R pipeline. Great stuff for phylo analysis (especially for getting backbones or constraints)!
Check the Open Tree of Life project here and check Dimitris’ example here (running smoothly on GitHub!).

Since December 2017, I have been a research fellow at KAPSARC, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. I am also a research fellow at Economic Research Forum (ERF).
My research focuses mainly on developing economic frameworks to provide insights into energy policymaking in oil-producing countries. My work has been published in general-interest journals (e.g., Applied Economics, Journal of Comparative Economics, Macroeconomic Dynamics), as well as top-tier field journals (e.g., Energy Economics, Energy Journal, Energy Policy).
Besides research activities, I serve as an advisor to Saudi Arabia’s Ministry of Energy and support decision-making in the energy sector. Additionally, I acted as a T20 task force advisor during the Saudi G20 Presidency in 2020.
Before joining KAPSARC, I worked as an associate professor of economics at the University of Paris Nanterre and taught courses such as econometrics, energy economics, and environmental economics. During the same period, I was a researcher at EconomiX-CNRS and worked on projects funded by organizations such as the European Renewable Energy Council and the French Energy Council. Prior to that, I was a researcher at Galatasaray University Economic Research Center (GIAM).

You have program and want to make it some pictures. You are developing 3D code and are unable to find any errors in your data arrays. You look for a replacement of GKS which no one seems to have anymore.
Many graphics packages, as the GLUTtoolkit (which has nearly the same intentions as gltools), AVS and GRAPE provide a perfect environment.
But for them, one has to register existing code as a callback and/or one has to translate the existing data structures into those of the graphics package. This may be fairly time consuming and difficult. Also, one wants to control the graphics package via the existing code, not vice versa. This is where the gltools package comes in.
It should enable one to get easy access to the OpenGL world on-line from one's own data structures within existing code.
It has been tested with OpenGL on SGI Irix 6.x and Compaq Tru64 UNIX as well as with the Mesa package of Brian Paul. It should compile with any ANSI-C compiler.
So, it is until now not planned to incorporate menu control into the package. An easy (and most preferred by the author) way to provide menus would be a callback to a scripting language like tcl which could be equipped with a menu system, but this makes sense only when the whole code is embedded into such a language.

President Richard M. Nixon describes the ideal candidate for IRS commissioner: "I want to be sure he is a ruthless son of a bitch, that he will do what he's told, that every income tax return I want to see I see, that he will go after our enemies and not go after our friends." |

President Richard M. Nixon tells Bob Haldeman: "Now here's the point, Bob. Please get the names of the Jews. You know, the big Jewish contributors to the Democrats. Could you please investigate some of the cocksuckers? That's all." |

President Richard M. Nixon resumes the previous day's conversation with Bob Haldeman:

Frequently asked questions
- Who's behind Unpaywall?
- We're Impactstory, a nonprofit working to make science more open and reusable online. We're supported by grants from the National Science Foundation and the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation
- Why did you make it?
- Now more than ever, humanity needs to access our collective knowledge, not hoard it behind paywalls. Lots of researchers feel the same; that's why they upload their papers to free, legal servers online. We want to help bring that open access content to the masses.
- How often does Unpaywall find full text?
- We find fulltext for 50-85% of articles, depending on their topic and year of publication. We think that's a game-changer for the publishing industry. Now that most articles are free, why subscribe? Over the longer term, we'll keep getting even better as mandatory open access requirements begin to take effect in the US, UK, Europe, and elsewhere.
- How do you find all these fulltext articles?
- We gather content from thousands of open-access repositories worldwide. To help us, we rely on a number of data sources, including PubMed Central, the DOAJ, Crossref (particulary their license info), DataCite, Google Scholar, and BASE. After we put all this data together, we in turn make it open for reuse via the oaDOI API: a free, fast, and very scalable way to leverage our data and infrastructure to support your own projects.
- How's this different from Sci-Hub?
- Like Unpaywall, Sci-Hub finds fulltext PDFs for paywalled articles. The main difference is where those PDFs come from: Unpaywall finds PDFs legally uploaded by the authors themselves, while Sci-Hub uses PDFs that are obtained by other means, including automated web scraping of publisher sites. Sci-Hub's method delivers more comprehensive results, but is not super legal. So while we're not against Sci-Hub, we think Unpaywall offers a more sustainable approach by working within copyright law and supporting the growing open access movement.
- The OA Button and Unpaywall are similar. But the OA Button is a more mature project (it's been working since 2013), and has a different user interface as well as extra features including author emailing and finding open datasets. Unpaywall is more focused on seamlessly finding free content. The great thing is, both are open-source and free, so you can install both, or fork 'em and make your own better extension!
- What's your privacy policy?
- The extension doesn't store or ask for any personal information from you, so when you use Unpaywall we don't know who you are. The extension doesn't track your browsing history, and it doesn't send any content from any page you visit to our servers, with one exception: when a page has a DOI (a short identifier used by scholarly articles), we send that DOI to our server (using an encrypted HTTPS connection) to find any free versions. We will log requests to our servers (which include the DOI and the IP address the request came from) in order to monitor and improve service. But those logs aren't connected to your identity. Furthermore, the extension won't send or use any kind of browser fingerprinting technology to identify your computer.
- Can Unpaywall tell me whether an article is "Green" or "Gold" OA?
- Indeed we can. Click the green Unpaywall extension icon in
your browser toolbar and choose "Settings." Once there, tick "Color-code tab for Green and Gold OA."
Thenceforth, you'll enjoy a veritable rainbow of OA colorfully goodness as you browse different articles:
-
Blue tab for articles available on the current page, but lacking license information (often that's because you're browsing from behind the paywall). (example)
- I found a bug
- Sorry about that! Unfortunately this is pretty common, especially where publishers don't follow standard practices for article display (as they often do not). For instance, we don't work for articles missing DOIs. The good news is that it's still early days for this project and it's under very active development. When you find an error, drop us an email and we'll get it fixed for you.
