The hangover 2:
“It happened again”. The hangover has begun, oh yes it has. The tragic trashed trio have yet again repeated their actions from the first film, where they woke up in a chaotic Las Vegas suite with no memory of what happened the night before at all. But this time, they’d done even worse, and lost their friend Teddy, whose disappearance has totally broken his sister’s husband-to-be, Stu (Ed Helms). The wedding was to be in a couple of hours in one of the world’s amazing and exotic places, Thailand.
Although Stu had decided to have a subdued bachelor party due to the unforgettable bash 2 years ago in Las Vegas, Stu is taking no chances and has opted to have a quiet bachelor party. However, this did not satisfy the boys, especially Phil(Bradley Cooper) and so instead, they have a buttoned up pre-wedding drink, and before they know it, they wake up totally demolished inside and out in Bangkok in a cruddy hotel with amnesia, AND with one member of the party missing which they only realise after checking up on their faces. However the worst has yet to come. They are all fully determined to find their friend Teddy although the circumstances are terrible and they have to meet with a series of humiliating disasters, and gross situations. Déjà vu has attacked them again, and what happened in Vegas was a total disaster, but what happens in Bangkok can’t possibly be real.

Computers

...Modern GPUs use most of their transistors to do calculations related to 3D computer graphics. They were initially used to accelerate the memory-intensive work of texture mapping and rendering polygons, later adding units to accelerate geometric calculations such as the rotation and translation of vertices into different coordinate systems. Recent developments in GPUs include support for programmable shaders which can manipulate vertices and textures with many of the same operations supported by CPUs, oversampling and interpolation techniques to reduce aliasing, and very high-precision color spaces. Because most of these computations involve matrix and vector operations, engineers and scientists have increasingly studied the use of GPUs for non-graphical calculations. An example of GPUs being used non-graphically is the generation of Bitcoins, where the graphical processing unit is used to solve puzzles. In addition to the 3D hardware, today's GPUs include basic 2D acceleration and framebuffer capabilities (usually with a VGA compatibility mode). Newer cards like AMD/ATI HD5000-HD7000 even lack 2D acceleration, it has to be emulated by 3D hardware.

Alcohol

...Alcoholism is a wide-ranging and complex disease that heavily plagues society. Drinking is defined as the consumption of a liquid, and/or the act of drinking alcoholic beverages especially to excess. Every year alcohol is responsible for 1/2 of all murders, accidental deaths, and suicides; 1/3 of all drowning, boating, and aviation deaths; 1/2 of all crimes; and almost 1/2 of all fatal automobile accidents (Overview 1). Alcohol is a potent nonprescription drug sold to anyone over the national legal drinking age, 21. Unlike carbohydrates, fats, and proteins, which can be manufactured by the body, alcohol is a substance that is not made within the body. It is a food, because it supplies a concentrated number of calories, but is not nourishing and does not supply a significant amount of needed nutrients, vitamins, or minerals. These are empty calories that result in an unattractive “beer belly.” Most foods are prepared for digestion by the stomach so that their nutrients can be absorbed by the large intestine. However, 95% of alcohol is absorbed directly through the stomach walls or the walls of the duodenum (part of the small intestine nearest the stomach)and small intestine (Overview 2). Various factors effect the speed of alcohol’s absorption into the body. - Watery drinks such as beer is absorbed more slowly. - Foods (especially fatty foods) delay absorption - Carbonated beverages speed up the emptying of the stomach into the small intestine where alcohol is absorbed more quickly...

Science Communication in 'Mythbusters'

..."I hope you guys left the explosives at home." — President Obama welcoming television's "Mythbusters" to a science education event (CongressDaily 2009) The primary aim of science communication is to communicate the scientific method effectively with an entire audience. In order to do this, Olson suggests that the goal is to “move the process out of your head, into your heart with sincerity, into your gut with humour, and, ideally, if you’re sexy enough, into your lower organs with sex appeal” (Olson 2009). The Discovery Channel television show Mythbusters portrays an example of this effective communication, as it breaks the bridge between subjectivity and objectivity by presenting the scientific method in a context of popular culture and myth. Firstly, it does this by arousing scientific interest by referencing popular urban myths, wives tales or movie scenes and testing these by embracing the spontaneity of the cast. This cast plays a vital role in accessing the ‘gut’ and ‘heart’ of the viewers, as they break stereotypes previously formed in the media about scientists but still communicate scientific concepts effectively. Mythbusters accurately communicates the modern image of a scientist by embracing diversity within the scientific field and utilising sex appeal. Finally, the show uses communication techniques to target audiences and demographic that aren’t often targeted by scientific communication. All these factors work together to arouse the interest of the television-viewing...

...because wine was used to celebrate the sacrament of the Mass. By the 1300’s, beer industry had emerged in Central Europe. At this time, wine was also continuing to grow in popularity; many brands named for the places in which they originated. At first alcohol was desined for the practical reasons, its use changed. People began to experiment with different types of alcohol. Alcohol became an integral part of European culture. We need to understand the harmful effects of alcohol, because it can be fatal. "Alcoholism is a primary, chronic disease with genetic, psychosocial, and environmental factors influencing its development and manifestations. The disease is often progressive and fatal. It is characterized by continuous or periodic: impaired control over drinking, preoccupation with the drug alcohol, use of alcohol despite adverse consequences, and distortions in thinking, most notably denial." (http://www.ncadd.org/facts/defalc.html). Alcoholism is sometimes characterized by the following elements: 1. Craving: A strong need, or compulsion, to drink. 2. Loss of control: The frequent inability to stop drinking once a person has begun. 3. Physical dependence: The occurrence of withdrawal symptoms, such as nausea, sweating, shakiness, and anxiety, when alcohol use is...

Sep2011, Vol. 25 Issue 5, p394-405. 12p. Document Type: Article Subject Terms: *ALCOHOLISM -- Psychological aspects *ALCOHOLISM -- Risk factors *ATTITUDE (Psychology) *CULTURE *FOCUS groups *SOCIOLOGY *STEREOTYPES (Social psychology) *AFFINITY groups *NARRATIVES *ADOLESCENCE Geographic Terms: GREAT Britain Author-Supplied Keywords: adolescence alcohol childhood children's culture youth Abstract: The purpose of this study is to challenge the discourse that underage drinking is inevitably 'deviant'. Rather than imposing an adults lens, the article draws upon focus-group interviews with 14-15 year olds. The meaningful role of drinking is explored, along with the capability of peer cultures to manage some alcohol-related 'risks'. The data suggest that the prioritization of adults constructs over teenage subject experiences appears somewhat misplaced since teenage norms are not complete subversions of the adult world. Apparent transgression is better understood as alternative socialization, since teenage peer groups creatively reproduce the wider culture.

...Louis ' least favourite part of a hangover was waking up to discover he had a hangover. That initial moment when you open your eyes and have to decide whether you'd been hit by a truck or the 70% of your body that was once made up of water is now 90% tequila. Most post night out mornings Louis would do his best to roll over and sleep through the whole horrid experience but this morning, this morning was very different. Louis was fucked, so, so fucked. And not in the dick up the arse kind of way that he enjoyed. No, he was fucked because he had the worst hangover headache known to man, his mouth tasted like arse and oh yeah, Nick Grimshaw was lying naked in his bed. Yup. Louis was fucked. Harry was to blame, Louis decided as he lay there staring at Nick Grimshaw’s stupid, sleeping face. Harry was the one who insisted they go out, insisted they hadn't had a lads night out in ages and here he was lying naked in bed and Nick Grimshaw’s arm around him. Harry was 100% to blame. It wasn't long before his bodily needs began to push through his shock at finding his arch nemesis in his bed. His bladder was insisting he get up from where he was pinned under nick's heavy arm but the idea of freeing himself from under it and possible waking Nick up had Louis frozen where he was. What would he say? He couldn't even remember how it got home never mind how Nick Grimshaw had wormed his way into his bed and possible his pants. He genuinely considered lying there until either the world ended...

Casablanca Review

...Everyone has seen movies of different types before there are dramas, romances, mysteries, and comedies to name a few. Comedies in particular are fun to watch because everyone enjoys a good laugh from time to time, and one of my favorite comedies is a movie by the title of Out Cold. I never knew how much Out Cold, which has a pre Hangover Zach Galifianakis in its cast, took from Casablanca until this week. Especially, the part that uses a jukebox and 311 song to reenact the famous scene in which Sam plays the song at Ilsa request and Rick comes out upset to hear the song only to find her standing there. Casablanca is considered a classic American movie made in 1942. It stars the actor Humphrey Bogart who despite being an actor some four decades before I was born I have still heard as of a exceptional actor. I find that older movie are usually hit or miss with me, but I did enjoy this movie because one it is set at the beginning of World War 2 which is a interesting time. Also, while the movie isn't action packed with special effect it is very character driven and that keeps a person invested in the movie. Lastly, the movie has a run time of one hundred and two minutes but it doesn't feel like it drags on and that might be the result of good editing not letting scenes become to long while giving all the necessary interactions. I would say the focus of Casablanca would be the complexity of human relationships. It also looks at ideas of morality with the love triangle of...

...Wednesday, February 11, 2009 Heart Attack In the reading heart attack a girl named Shauna was in a desperate search for a decent job to keep her on her feet. In September of 1993 Shauna discovered an ad at the local college for a part time bookkeeper for a man named Mr. Hamid. Mr.Hamid owned a company called ESD, it was a property management company. He owned numerous apartment complexes in Santa Monica and West Hollywood California and needed someone to do accounts payable and accounts receivable.

She was told that she would be “Entitled to some vacation, sick and holiday benefits after she completed the standard probationary period of 3 months. There were only three people working with Shauna, herself, Mr. Hamid and his wife. Shauna found herself alone most of the time because Mr. Hamid was too busy taking vacations with his wife to Cancun Mexico. He was a pretty big partier and was too hangover to come into work most of the time. He also told her how pretty she was all of the time and told her to find a rich man to be with. Shauna felt awkward around him and always thought he was referring to himself most of the time he brought it up.

...How to grow Without faster growth the rich world’s economies will be stuck. But what can be done to achieve it? Our economics team sets out the options Oct 7th 2010 WHAT will tomorrow’s historians see as the defining economic trend of the early 21st century? There are plenty of potential candidates, from the remaking of finance in the wake of the crash of 2008 to the explosion of sovereign debt. But the list will almost certainly be topped by the dramatic shift in global economic heft. Ten years ago rich countries dominated the world economy, contributing around two-thirds of global GDP after allowing for differences in purchasing power. Since then that share has fallen to just over half. In another decade it could be down to 40%. The bulk of global output will be produced in the emerging world. The pace of the shift testifies to these countries’ success. Thanks to globalisation and good policies, virtually all developing countries are catching up with their richer peers. In 2002-08 more than 85% of developing economies grew faster than America’s, compared with less than a third between 1960 and 2000, and virtually none in the century before that. This “rise of the rest” is a remarkable achievement, bringing with it unprecedented improvements in living standards for the majority of people on the planet. But there is another, less happy, explanation for the rapid shift in the global centre of economic gravity: the lack of growth in the big rich economies of America...
