After 2000 pages of thread, then it's "full of stars", and we all evaporate into a state of ecstasy in the sunset. There is much to be said in favour of modern journalism. By giving us the opinions of the uneducated, it keeps us in touch with the ignorance of the community.-á-á-á-á - Oscar Wilde |

Saw that film the other day, just not have seen the first one in a few years.
I've seen it here and there since the age of 10, and now at 48. It's almost a different film every time seen. So much interesting stuff going on in it and how it was made.

Yup, quoting my own post.
As far as "how 2001 was made" goes, my favorite was finding out the floating pen on the space shuttle was achieved by simply using a large glass plate moved around by 2 guys, upon which was stuck a pen by using a 2 month old miraculous invention at the time by 3M called Double-Stick Tape. If you really look on a large screen you can see the tiny piece of tape when the stewardess walks up and plucks it off the glass.
Just amazing how such imagery throughout the film emerged from such a "paper clips and bubblegum" situation.
Also, finding out that none of the scenes during the Dawn of Man sequence were filmed in Africa. Stanley sent a photography crew there and all the apes and animals are on sets in London with huge blown up photographs that were taken at the back of the sets.

Which was a recap of the first movie - 2001 A Space Odyssey. That phrase was actually spoken by Dr. David Bowman towards the end of the first movie, just before he went on the Cosmic Ride with the Black Monolith. DMC
No. No. No.
It is never, ever uttered in the film. It's in the novel. I'm positive.....
Edit: After Bowman disconnects HAL and hears the 'secret message', there is absolutely no further dialogue in the film at all. There is much to be said in favour of modern journalism.

I love this one short film they showed on MST3K from the early 60s with a newlywed couple exploring their home of the future, and later their car of the future.
At the very end they are seen driving toward a typical City of the Future back then, and Crow Robot says "The Future....may not be available as shown.".

I had 2 years of German though and can parse my way slowly through most of it, and that's better than most. Edit: When I was 10 years old and we were on the 3rd trip to visit my grandmother in Berlin, we first flew to Copenhagen and made our way north up the coast to a seaside hotel resort we had heard about. We had trouble finding it when we came upon this guy walking down the side of the road. We stopped, right there in rural Denmark, and my mother rolled down the window and asked the guy if he knew where the hotel was in very slow German, and he replied in perfect English...."it's another 2 miles up further !" I was shocked and impressed. And gained a whole new appreciation of the European educational system. (Also, the sun rose the next morning at 4:00 am  and woke us up) I think it is backfiring somewhat. Here in Germany, most official announcements are in German and English, English has become the most important language in Science and research and more and more English words are included into our language, especially in commercials and media. It seems like we are eager to abolish our own language (not that it is a very nice language, but at least it sounds dark and harsh  ). We don't even have a common border with Britain or any English speaking country- I would understand and welcome when more people here would speak french, but only very few Germans do. I guess if we keep it up, the German language will be dead in about 100 years.
German is a great language and I found it fun to learn.
I remember the 60's and early 70's when French was to become "the International Language". Yeah right, with all that really weird spelling. Impenetrable most indeed.

I'd suggest you switch to another benzodiazepine (I know, Zolpidem isn't one, but it uses the same receptors) like diazepam or (better) clonazepam that are also available in liquid form; you can reduce it in much smaller steps this way, and I 'd advise you to go very slow, about 1 mg per week, perhaps even slower. Seizures, anxiety, insomnia and depression are common side effects of withdrawal. 10-20 mg Zolpidem is roughly equivalent to about 0,5 mg liquid clonazepam or 10 mg liquid diazepam.
^^ This.
Sticking to the schedule and the amount was tedious, and sometimes before the next dose I would be practically vibrating with anxiety. Arghh. It was truly difficult.

No no, not on it, like kinda flavoured. As in powdered or whatever from the bag. The bag was soy sauce butter popcorn. Kinda like how cheese flavoured potato chips dont actually have cheese on them, more a powdered flavouring.
I'm sure they even use powdered squid ink too.

My older sister who laughed herself silly in the backseat of the car when we heard this back then is going to lose it. We've laughed about it all these years. My 85 yo Mother is just going to be wide-eyed with surprise.

One thing about Tokyo is there is no serene time. When I was in Israel or when for a short time i lived in Italy there were times of the day that there was tranquility in the early morning. An almost zen like time where one could have a nice cup of tea or coffee and truly unwind.
Not feeling that vibe here. But maybe im going to the wrong places.
Because there are so many people in Tokyo !

Though i do feel that a certain slice of the population could do without their cars and walk to and from work. Those hills would get them trim in no time.
Most people there do walk, and take the subway and buses and bike to work and all that. The cars you see are mainly tourists in rentals and commuting workers.
That 800,000 population swells to about 1,900,000 during the workday from the Bridge and Tunnel Crowd, then empties again at night. |

Oh, God. The particular reason that FORCED me to leave is extremely personal.
My 'rescuer' was actually my current EVE Alliance Leader at the time (living in Tampa) who just happened to be in a position to literally instantly take me in and help out. Even paid for my airflight from SFO to Tampa.
We had been in vocal chat for over 2 years at the time almost everyday and knew each other backwards and forwards, and he made the suddenly necessary offer without me even asking.
Just one of those things that makes EVE absolutely amazing beyond belief.
Really a strange, yet wonderful situation, and what should happen more often in the world. We HAVE to help each other out.
I'm eternally grateful. |

Take Let the Right One in or Thirst for example. What do all those good vampire movies have in common? Oh, right, they were not made in Hollywood 
The genre just holds absolutely no appeal for me. There just is not any room for anything truly 'new'. And yes, I've watched "True Blood" because I'm willing to give anything a chance.
I have a hard time buying into any of the premises. I'm 'too aware' it's not really happening. Almost all SF and fantasy is more convincing. |

I did like the first "Hellraiser" as well. The second one was too filled with "KIRSTEN!!!!.......KIRSTEN!!!!! KIRSTEN........KIRSTEN!!!!!!! KKKKKIIIRRRSSSTTTEEENNNNNNN!!!!!!!!!" |

I consider Cameron's "Aliens" as action/SF. Ridley Scott's first one was (brilliantly) dolled-up Gothic Horror. |

Me too except I found "Ep3:Sith" to be quite brilliant and amazing with a beautiful connection at the end to the original series. I like the art critic(I can't remember her name) who considers the entire lava planet sequence to be the best work of Contemporary Art in existence.
It has so many artistic tools and elements involved at once, and would have been impossible to make even 20 years ago. It is indeed quite beautiful. She found it to be the nadir of how far we've come artistically, cinematically, aesthetically. |

Believe me I understand. But I'm able to look at the story and the visuals of a film, and in cases like this, ignore the idiotic dialogue. With my love of "The Tree of Life" I'm one who can obviously even do without dialogue.
But I do find the scene with Anakin and Palpatine during the opera ( and just that one small part) to be one of the best scenes in the entire series.

I just love "Lost in Translation". I was blown away when I first saw it and like it even more now. It's endlessly rewatchable.
It proves movies that operate on a slow-burn and subtlety can work. Comedies don't have to be constant loud mayhem or comprised of gross-out jokes.
Although it's a trifle, I really liked her "Marie Antionette", and her new film "The Bling Ring" looks to be an pointed examination of a certain kind of young person in this day and age. It looks seriously great.

You can Google some articles but I'm not linking anything as it has too much politically volatile fodder involved.
But in short, a video has apparently surfaced showing their (already unbalanced) Mayor smoking crac*. It's been a drama just trying to get ahold of the footage. Now as of today, apparently it's discovered the person who shot it may have been murdered.
Also emerging today, a video from a conservative party picnic given by the crazy Mayor who had invited the Prime Minister and introduces him to give a speech.
Almost all of the Mayor's staff has quit, the dude is denying everything, and Toronto has no way of getting rid of the guy.
It just goes on and on with a startling new revelation every day. The surprises contain further surprises. Canada is just up in arms. |

It's an out of control downward spiral.

It turned out to be a 'dry ice in a bottle' prank, but still, it's never happened to Disney before, and shows just how low people are sinking.

These are seriously disturbing, and impossible to prevent.
It's seriously getting to a point where attending any public event is a possibly threatening situation to one's life.

It's especially so here lately.... Nope. I disagree. Things like the Boston Marathon explosion and the Aurora Cinema Massacre are completely alien behavior not seen before in America and they are happening faster and faster. There is no exaggeration from the media. These are seriously disturbing, and impossible to prevent. It's seriously getting to a point where attending any public event is a possibly threatening situation to one's life. Edit: and the Newtown Elementary School Massacre. None of these things is Muslim related at all. Walking down the street is possibly threatening to one's life. So is driving down the street, or even cooking dinner. Most accidents happen in the home, right? Keep calm, and carry on. Terror doesn't work unless you're afraid. 
I'm not going to turn a blind eye and pretend nothing is happening. Of course, one can die at any moment for whatever reason.
We don't need quite this much help from psychopaths for an early exit.
You are equating accidents with premeditated murder. |

In an effort to damage Germany, he promoted religious fundamentalism and xenophobia, instructed the Arab tribes in guerrilla warfare and terrorism and promised them sovereignty that the British Empire never intended to grant them. Maybe, if either Germany/Austria had won or (even better) both sides had agreed on an armistice and balanced peace treaty, WW II would have never happened and the whole world would be a much safer and stabler place now...
Who said Germany was the bad guy in WW1? Also, WW1 draws to a close, the continent of Europe starving and Germany surrenders for food. In the treaty of Versailles it takes humiliating terms to pay for the cost of the entire war to the victorious entente powers. The League of Nations is later founded to prevent another conflict on this scale. With the collapsing Reichmark, foreign corporations exploit German technology and build colossal conglomerates out of the rubble to serve global markets. A second war is inevitable.
Germany was treated so badly after that Treaty, making so many reparations, that it exacerbated their economic issues through the 30s allowing the rise of 'you know who'.
thus after WWII, America championed the Marshall Plan for rebuilding Germany to prevent a repeat. |

The currency was printed on felt before hand, by the end of it the old farm was using cheap paper currency as wallpaper and toilet paper.
Which is why Germany is so adamant the Euro be strong.
Plus big chunks of Germany's food growing territory are given to it's neighbours to stop it being a real power again... And it's colonies are absorbed into the British Empire...
Yup. My Mother's family apparently voted for the same reasons, and when the war started in 39 she was 12 and in the 'You Know Who' Youth. She and her friends there of course (it was like a permanent summer camp with them out in barracks in the woods) had no idea what was going on. She just remembers some of her other friends just disappearing sometimes.
She also remembers her father bringing home literally a wheelbarrow full of cash and it would buy a loaf of bread. |

A wow! review of the new Neil Gaiman novel "The Ocean at the End of the Lane":
ItGÇÖs a very rare thing, maybe once a decade, for a novel to come along and within a few pages you know youGÇÖre reading a future classic. If you havenGÇÖt heard of Neil Gaiman yet you can be forgiven, but this, his sixth adult novel, will firmly cement his handprints in the literary walk of fame.
The Ocean at the End of the Lane opens with a grown man revisiting the countryside home of his childhood GÇô a childhood defined by a single summer when a series of events began with the suicide of a man in a car on the lane.
What follows is a dreamlike sequence of sinister magical occurrences, the only salvation from which comes in the form of Lettie Hempstock, the girl from the farm at the end of the lane, who claims thereGÇÖs an ocean in her back garden and that her grandmother saw the Big Bang.
Philip Pullman famously said: GÇ£Without stories we wouldnGÇÖt be human beings at allGÇ¥, and this is one of those stories that is almost primitive in its power GÇô it captures you heart and soul, and makes you grateful we have storytellers like Gaiman to feed our minds and stoke our imaginations. The Ocean at the End of the Lane is this yearGÇÖs big bang book.
EDIT: I felt the same way about his "American Gods". |

Great quote from a Shyamalan "After Earth" review from NY Times:
"Mr. Smith and his wife, Jada Pinkett Smith, are producers on GÇ£After Earth,GÇ¥ which suggests that there was no one on the production who could really say no to him. An often affable screen presence, he spends much of the movie in a chair on the spaceship pursing his lips and watering his eyes.
ItGÇÖs a calamitously one-note, unpersuasive performance thatGÇÖs a match to that of Jaden, a pretty teenager with jumpy eyebrows whose character remains an insufferable brat. Once upon a time, Hollywood parents gave their children sports cars as gifts. These days, apparently nothing less than a big-screen vanity project will do for Junior." |

Who is right ? And what do YOU use ?
If it's a really full beard, shampoo and conditioner are indeed recommended. |

Harlan Ellison in an interview yesterday:
DW: It (SF) seems to be everywhere, with video games, massive movie franchises and millions of people going to conventions. So why is it so popular now?
HE: Well, we live in a technological age. Time has passed, and we have stepped over the ruins of our own societies, and our own civilisations, and we come now to the fruition of those things about which the human race has dreamed. We have flight and we have electronic assistants.
The entertainment media GÇô which are always very timorous and step very carefully out of fear and loathing GÇô don't know what they're doing so much. So they go back, and they are catching up on the kind of science fiction GÇô and they call it, in that ugly, ugly phrase, "sci-fi," which those who have worked in speculative fiction despise, it's like calling a woman a "broad" GÇô they are catching up on ideas that were covered with hoarfrost 60 years ago.
That's why you have an overabundance of zombies and walking dead, and world war and asteroids from space. They have not yet tackled any of the truly interesting discussions of humanity that are treated in speculative fiction. But they are a break from standard 19th, early 20th-century fiction, and so they seem fresh to an audience that is essentially ignorant. |

Morning/afternoon/evening all. I'm a bit late to the game today.
Not feeling well and I'm sure it's due to this stuffy heat in Flori-derp. It's just been withering.
At least the longest day of the year is about here, so it's a downhill slope to eventually cooler weather. I just can't seem to acclimatize after 17 years of San Francisco chilly fog. But then I remember constantly shivering for about 3 years when I first moved there from Houston.  |

TBH, Gatsby intrigues me but I'll wait until it's out on vidya. I've read the book twice (for school). It's been a long while and my remembry isn't so good on it, but I dont remember it being a "Made for Movie" type of book, despite how many times it's been made into a movie. I'm just afraid that they'll need to add a bunch of crap to make it flashy and in the process, loose the book.
Well, it's kinda interesting because the book is a bit flashy itself with its "jazz-inspired" language and descriptions. It just doesn't have a lot of elements that translate to what most people are looking for in a film.
I'm not sure how popular the book is in Europe, and goodness knows it's such a product of America, but I highly recommend it to anyone who has not read it over there. I'm usually pretty exclusively about SF literature, but sometimes there is just something so well written, it's irresistible anyway. |

From what I remember, they pretty much just pretend that being gay does not exist as a concept. They aren't "anti-", just....it doesn't exist.
Although the situation was certainly different in San Francisco, the whole time I lived in Houston I only saw ONE Japanese person ever in a gay bar. One.

I don't know. It's a curious thing I've been wondering about.
A part of it may have to do with the fact that our culture ultimately comes from both England and Germany. The German influence in the state of Texas is astonishing......towns like Schulenberg and Elmendorf......
Also, Germans pretty much invaded Mexico. All those really really hot men on Mexican Soap Operas are obviously a product of German/Mexican marriages. Woof. |

It's sooooooo confusing.
OK: We passed the right to marry in California. Conservatives at that point brought Prop 8 to the Ballot (supported by the Catholic Church and funded by the Mormons, mind you) in order to get the decision repealed by the Voters.
It passed.
Then the California Appeals Court struck down Prop 8.
Then the Conservatives tried to deny that decision and brought the case to the SCOTUS...which just said they had no cause to do that.
Back and forth....back and forth....treading water........ |

Not to be overly grounded in reality this early on this AM, but I just got through reading about how how our country (America) had the temerity to actually ground the President of Bolivia's plane last night for 14 hours in Vienna under suspicion that Snowden was on board.
Of course he was not.
We just simply told Spain, France, and Italy to not let him fly through their airspace.
The fact we can intimidate these countries into this kind of behavior, I mean, grounding the President of another country entirely, is the most frightening thing to me to emerge from the whole mess.

Disney is apparently going to take a $100 M loss from a $250 M budget on "The Lone Ranger".
Of course. Between this and "John Carter", Disney has for the 2nd time released a film based on ancient, almost archaic heroes without bothering to explain to the general public what the deal is or the significance of the project. So many people went to "John carter" not knowing it was ever set on Mars. Maybe if they had kept the proper title. "John Carter" sounds like a sequel to "Michael Clayton".
Another 1/4 Billion budgeted film disappoints and wastes money that could have funded dozens of other projects. Unreal.
Edit: This is just more fuel for skepticism of the new "Star Wars" films, and these are the minds in charge of that now. The sheer "meh"-factor with JJ Abram's "Star Trek Into Darkness" also compounds the matter (honestly I've only liked one of his films. "Super 8" bored me to death). We may be calling him Jar-Jar Abrams in the future. |

Yeah I'd say during the late 60's and early 70's there were probably some popular hits that broke the mold. Popular opinion at that time was really against the ongoing war and all the wacky political disasters (bay of pigs, watergate, etc.). Still, if you look at the most popular genre of that era (westerns) the films which championed the dissident or the general populace rather than the state agency of the Sheriff, Pinkerton, etc. were few and far between.
Bay of Pigs was 12 years before Watergate. Not even in the same 'era'.
Edit: Westerns were popular until the late 1950's...........even earlier. It was dead by 1962 and moved to mainly television (Bonanza, Gunsmoke) where it had always been a staple. |

Tumahub wrote: The birth of the modern "progressive," era is widely regarded as beginning in the early 60's and continuing to the mi 70's. So I think it's fair to refer to that as part of the same era of political sentiment in the US. 17 April 1961 was the Bay of Pigs invasion. June 17, 1972 was the night of the break-in that launched watergate.
America in 1961 and America in 1972-74 were 2 completely different countries. There was a completely psychologically devastating war in between those dates utterly changing everything.
The Modern Era is considered having started in the 1920's and extended to 1964, the beginning of the Vietnam War. After that, we are considered the PostModern Era.

Look. I was there. You were not. Stop trying to be 'right'. You have enough errors in your movie 'information', much less history of politics and popular culture. You aren't gaining much respect here, at all.
So just stop now before you make one of the fine posters in this thread, as they mostly are, angry. |

Just because one is not out on the street does not mean one does not have the sentiment. What idiotic reasoning. Seriously idiotic.
Besides, no new 'wars' have started up in almost 10 years to protest. We exhausted ourselves in 2003 on the streets but there has been nothing to do since then. I know. I marched. In San Francisco. I WAS THERE.

Wow.. "Despicable Me 2" has 60M so far this weekend.
"Lone Ranger".....19.2M.
That's a spanking for Disney most indeed.
EDIT: "Part of the problem, is that children aren't nearly as familiar with the Lone Ranger as they are with the animated characters in "Despicable Me 2" and last week's first-place film, "Monsters University."
"Kids really need to be reintroduced to the Lone Ranger," he said. "Instead, they were introduced to Tonto in the marketing."
http://www.sfgate.com/news/article/Despicable-Me-tramples-Lone-Ranger-at-theaters-4648608.php
This is exactly what I said 3 days ago here. Kids have no clue about Lone Ranger, just like Disney not explaining a thing about John Carter of Mars to the public before release.
All that marketing money for overblown images plastered all over the world, and none for words to explain. Sure has backfired twice now. |

"Lone Ranger" Debacle continues with the New York Times' always colorful wordage:
"Tumbleweeds blew through theaters playing GÇ£The Lone RangerGÇ¥ over the weekend, calling into question Johnny DeppGÇÖs star power , extending Jerry BruckheimerGÇÖs troubled box-office run, and probably leading to a write down of $100 million or more at DisneyGÇÖs film studio.
"Even more humiliating for Disney: GÇ£Despicable Me 2,GÇ¥ a relatively inexpensive cartoon from Universal GÇö a new force in animation, the art form that Walt Disney perfected for the masses GÇö was an immediate smash hit. GÇ£Despicable Me 2GÇ¥ took in about $142.1 million between Wednesday and Sunday, while GÇ£The Lone RangerGÇ¥ had ticket sales of about $48.9 million over the same period.
"As Universal was celebrating, Disney was trying to figure out how GÇ£The Lone RangerGÇ¥ came up so lame GÇö GÇ£the kind of bomb that people discuss for years to come,GÇ¥ as Phil Contrino, chief analyst for BoxOffice.com put it." 
There is a lot more here.
I found this interesting:
"But GÇ£The Lone Ranger,GÇ¥ which received terrible reviews, suffered from tonal problems. Was it a campy comedy or a serious action film? Trailers seemed to play it both ways, said Doug Creutz, a media analyst with Cowen & Company. "
I noticed that duplicity in the trailers myself.
Which relates to my comment about all the money spent on marketing. Just who exactly is doing the marketing and making these choices for them? The last minute panic change of "John Carter of Mars" to just "John Carter" was weird enough. I actually read the change was because their marketing people discovered "girls don't go to movies with Mars in the title." |

Unbelievably stupid decision how the airline even approved that landing with no experience onboard. I saw on the news that it was his first time landing a 777 but he'd made several landings there before but not for the last few years. And the plane guidance system at SFO was switched off for maintenance. The lack of backup also raises questions.
Now it turns out the Senior Pilot who was supervising the landing was on his first training mission !!
You don't "train" landings at SFO with that little (no) experience. |

Nope, nothing was done right. Almost everyone survived apparently due to the newer seats that were installed recently. They absorb a lot more shock from ground impacts now, so everyone was not literally flung onto the runway at full speed.
edit: The 2 teenagers who were run over were sitting in the back and their seats went off with the detached tail section. |

Interesting point is that while everyone's going on about how the SF crash (2 dead) is a massive tragedy and all, a smaller plane crashed in Alaska on Sunday, and killed 10 people. Nobody really seems to be talking about that.
...On the other hand, it might be better if we didn't talk about either crash here, and stuck with things that won't make me feel terrible for liking them :P
That was apparently an explainable accident in Alaska.

Agreed. But the issue with filming in Britain is the absolutely unbelievable restrictions the various 'guilds' have in place. They will only work so many hours per day. And get 3 breaks for "tea" regardless of the directors intentions or whatever is going on at the moment.
Listen to James Cameron's Commentary on "Aliens" about the issues that the unions caused to that production wile filming there. It's startling and funny. The constant stopping for breaks almost ruined the production and had it way behind schedule, causing even more issues. |

Indeed Cameron's dissatisfaction was more of the situation back in 1986 I guess. |

Oh, Joy !
More bad movie news.
Besides the live action "Cinderella" coming from Disney, now we have them gearing up a live action "Jungle Book" ! Yup. I'm heard millions of people screaming and clamoring for a new version of that. http://www.aintitcool.com/node/63182
I guess Disney is determined to remake all of their cartoons into live action. The ridiculous part is that an entirely different version of "The Jungle" book is coming from WB, and both versions will go head to head upon release.
It seems to be more about Hollywood playing games instead of serving the public at all anymore.
Can't wait for that live-action "Bambi".  |

Sure is a lot of DPS on that expedition compared to all the other expeditions from high sec 'Watch' sites. Course it is Gallente space and we all know how CCP just luvs to fuc with Gallente. DMC
There is a a High Sec Expedition coming off one of the Sansha combat sites here in Derelik. I forget the initial site, but the first stage of the following expedition (I think it's called "State of the Nation") almost lost me my faction Raven.
It had been a really long time since that happened. It didn't involve triggers either, it was just the initial onslaught itself was overwhelming. Warp-away made the site vanish, so I'm not quit sure what the intent is, except for a gang possibly doing the expedition (for real CCP ? really ?)
I'll let you know if I get the expedition again.

Well, as long as the Overseer ship or structure isn't destroyed, expedition sites will stay active as long as the 24 hr timer doesn't expire. You may have inadvertently destroyed the Overseer before warping out or the expedition timer may have expired. As for the name - State Of The Nation - The only expedition name that even comes close to that is - Nation On The Rise - gained from Sansha Watch sites. Sansha High Security Unrated Combat Sites / ExpeditionsSansha Hideout = Drop Sansha Lookout = Slave Breading Plants Sansha Watch = Nation On The Rise Sansha Vigil = True Power Shipyards Anyway, after my ship was destroyed, I took a couple of screen shots while waiting for back up to come finish the site. Here's a screen shot showing the ships of the last half of the full spawn.Here's a screen shot showing the wrecks of the first half of the full spawn.Obviously I went into this both misinformed and uninformed due to incorrect and incomplete documentation. I was doing OK until I unknowingly triggered the Cosmos / last spawn. That's what got me. Can't do very much when there's 5 webs and 5 scrams on you with a MWD Armada bearing down on you. With Great Knowledge Comes Great Power.DMC
Thanks.
Not sure about the Overseer having to be shot for the site to disappear.
I honestly did not (could not) stay in the site long at all and only got a couple of frigates before fleeing. I actually sent in a Petition query about what had happened, since I had run the site before around a year earlier with no issue. And was surprised at the onslaught that ensued, and that the site had evaporated.
They said that pretty much everything was normal and the intent was for the site to be difficult, and I just dropped the matter. These episodes were at least a year apart though and that must have been that period when they reconfigured some of the missions, but apparently that included some of these DED spaces as well. That's all I can figure.
Maybe better luck next time....... |

In 1988 I pulled off the astonishing feat of walking around for 2 months with a burst appendix.
There was absolutely no pain or any indication of that being the cause as it wore my immune system down to where I got bronchitis, so that was the initial treatment path.
6 weeks later when they finally threw me in the hospital with about 48 hours to live, they finally discovered what was wrong in the middle of a 3 hour MRI scan.

After the appendix exploded, it was apparently "sealed off' inside an abscess that prevented the peritonitis poison from flooding my bloodstream, so it was sort of a gradual 'leak'.
Really I spent a month with a high fever and coughing with bronchitis, until I finally put my foot down that after 2 weeks of antibiotics and aspirin the fever had not reduced at all, which indicated something else was wrong.
TBH, I'm lucky to be alive from all that. |

I always root for the zombies! I just have not really liked any of the ones from the past 15 years or so. I was spoiled at 13 with the original "Dawn of the Dead". I remember how much it upset people upon release. Parent groups wanted it pulled and re-rated as X, and all that. Do you mean "Night of the Living Dead"? The black and white one?
Nope. The 1978 version set in the shopping mall. Zombies stumbling around to Muzak.

Absolutely not. I was actually on Twitter last night, and it seemed like every freaking account was prepping for the viewing before it even broadcast.
Within an hour almost every Tweet was about 'what just happened' on "Skarknado".
Word kept spreading and before you know it, SyFy ratings records were apparently being busted.

For the record, I don't believe Zimmernam shot Martin for any malicious reason, but it was really wrong of him to continue his pursuit when ordered to leave the scene. It allowed for what was probably an accidental shooting that should not have happened.
It's easy for the public to have an enemy when all they have to do is convince themselves it is an enemy. |

It's just another effect of the state of education in Murica. Neither of these two 'gentlemen' were particularly well educated at all. When stupid collides with stupid, all kinds of insane, inexplicable, and chaotic outcomes are to be had, and they certainly happened in this case.
I believe we are due for a lot more of these "stupid meets stupid" cases.
Our country's current zeal of closing libraries and convincing everyone that Noah brought dinosaurs with him on the Ark so that Jesus could ride them is unfortunately the state of things. |

Mind you, this is America we're talking about, where everyone insists that their right to be able to kill fellow human beings is a fundamental human right and other countries are stupid for not letting their citizens kill each other too. So, you know. Cultural influences.

Complete the sequence for Amarr/Ammatar MAndate and you should be able to anchor in Caldari space and Khanid Kingdom as well.
When I did the Data Centers, I was really low on Amarr standings, but the sequence got to within 2 Lvl 4 missions of 5.0. I think I spent 750M ISK total for the tags. |

Only heard about it last night on Bill Maher and the papers thia morning, sounds like the media had already had him on trial and convicted Zimmerman guilty as sin for some reason or another. Meanwhile there's a woman, in the same state, who used the 'Stand your ground' law as a defence, who got 20 years for attempted murder, for NOT shooting her, supposedly abusive, husband but firing warning shots instead. Back to the likes people.
Back in 1993, a friend of mine was murdered in Houston in my best friends front yard: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paul_Broussard
When the perpetrators were sentenced, you can easiiy see how that went. Very light sentences and all are now out on parole. All ten of them.
The same week as that trial, another friend of mine was tried for possession of 2 hits of Acid.
He got 45 years prison with no parole.
Just a little backwards is Texas, most indeed.

Trying to watch the 1964 Adam West film "Robinson Crusoe on Mars" on broadcast TV as I have not seen it in 40 years, but the framing for the pan-and-scan for TV is so bad, I'm apparently watching "binson Cru on Mars" according to the title card.
edit: What a great little well-made fun film for 10 yo kids and younger. I had forgotten (...didn't notice back then...) that there is no dialogue for 20 minutes, an unusually long time for a film especially back then. And even then it's a character just making a recorded log.
For the rest of us, a great reminder of what SF films were like in the Olden Days. |

It may be malice, it may not have been malice.

Oh Happy Day !! (from a ComicCon article):
"Speaking of which, work on Twin Peaks: The Complete Series on Blu-ray is also well under way at CBS, with a release expected in time for the end of the year or early next.
Multiple sources tell us that a deal has been made to allow the inclusion of David LynchGÇÖs Fire Walk with Me film in the package, so fans will at long last be treated to a truly complete set." |

And...SQUEEEEEEEEEE !!
"First up, on our own Digital Bits BD Producers panel, we exclusively revealed that Shout! Factory is currently hard at work on a fully-remastered Blu-ray box set of Pee-WeeGÇÖs Playhouse: The Complete Series.
The show was originally finished on 1-inch analog tape, but it was shot on film and star Paul Rubens has all the original 16 and 35mm negative. So itGÇÖs all being scanned in full HD and then digitally restored and remastered. Rubens himself is working closely with producer Brian Ward and the Shout! team to create new special features, so it should be pretty terrific.
We showed a special video preview during our panel that offered fans a glimpse of the restoration work, with before and after comparisons. It looks absolutely amazing! (WeGÇÖll see if thereGÇÖs any chance we can show it to you here.)
The set is expected to be released sometime in early 2014. The exact time frame will depend on how long it takes to finish the restoration properly GÇô they donGÇÖt want to rush it, they want to get it right."
This show was a reason to be stoned at 9 AM Saturday Mornings in 1987. |

Random McNally wrote:"I was already way too committed to stop," the post said. "The light turned red as I was cruising through the middle of the intersection and then, almost instantly, the southern crosswalk on Market and Castro filled up with people coming from both directions. ... I couldn't see a line through the crowd and I couldn't stop, so I laid it down and just plowed through the crowded crosswalk in the least-populated place I could find."
Now, imagine if he'd been in a car. What would they have done then?
Even the bus drivers on the 24 Divisadero saw him run the red lights at 14th Street and State Street right before this collison at Market Street. Castro Street coming from his direction is nothing but a steep downhill slope slope for 2 blocks, and a lot of these cyclists use it as a deliberate speed boost to beat the traffic at Market.
I saw them doing this all the time over 17 years there, and this was just absolutely inevitable.
The cyclists in SF have an incredibly "holier than thou" attitude, not just to car drivers, but to regular pedestrians. Especially those into the fixed-gear nonsense. |

I mean, congrats to Kate and William, and lots of love to the family, but it's another squalling baby who just happened to be ejected from a vagina contractually associated with a royal lineage.
Do we really even believe in the value of royal blood nowadays?
How much does the British government subsidize them, anyway?
I just don't see the excitement.
It's the fascination with a dying institution being kept alive, like the Pope and the Catholic Church.
edit: It's also infused with a bit of nostalgia for how things were. Don't forget, Shakespeare even immortalized a lot of the British Royalty and it's a huge tradition that Americans just will not ever really understand.
Besides, America has its own irrelevant past kept alive, especially in the South and the pining for the Confederate Days.
I got so sick of bumper stickers announcing "The South is Going to do It Again !!" when I lived in Texas.
The only response really was "Do what again ? LOSE ??"  |

Actually, those bumper stickers and associated paraphernalia are nothing but racist calling cards. End of Story. Hmmm i have never had an issue with someone in this thread before. But if you so choose to pass off your comment as the only interpretation with a half hazard comment you are obviously biased and using a personal opinion rather then history/context clues/effort/etc. Your probably part of the same lot that calls for all confederate flags that are protected by the U.S. government to be burned that honor the war dead. Missing the point that they are not banned because all they stand for is not racism. As the U.S. does tend to ban things or force others to ban them if they deem them only instruments of hate. e.g. no Germans may have over X amount of reichsmark unless they are using them for historical purposes such as a museum or class. Story continued?
My calling out the racist bumper stickers has absolutely nothing to do with your ridiculous political interpretations of history. Nothing whatsoever.
I was born and grew up in rural Arkansas. I know these people. That was over 40 years ago, and absolutely nothing you say here is ever going to change my mind or affect it one iota. |

Just got through reading an interview with William Gibson that took over an hour it's so long. It covers his entire career, but the very last of it just has to be passed on, especially for the great last sentence:
GIBSON
If youGÇÖd gone to a publisher in 1981 with a proposal for a science-fiction novel that consisted of a really clear and simple description of the world today, theyGÇÖd have read your proposal and said, Well, itGÇÖs impossible. This is ridiculous. This doesnGÇÖt even make any sense. Granted, you have half a dozen powerful and really excellent plot drivers for that many science-fiction n-¡ovels, but you canGÇÖt have them all in one novel.
INTERVIEWER
What are those major plot drivers?
GIBSON
Fossil fuels have been discovered to be destabilizing the planetGÇÖs climate, with possibly drastic consequences. ThereGÇÖs an epidemic, highly contagious, lethal sexual disease that destroys the human immune system, raging virtually uncontrolled throughout much of Africa. New York has been attacked by Islamist fundamentalists, who have destroyed the two tallest buildings in the city, and the United States in response has invaded Afghanistan and Iraq.
INTERVIEWER
And you havenGÇÖt even gotten to the technology.
GIBSON
You havenGÇÖt even gotten to the Internet. By the time you were telling about the Internet, theyGÇÖd be showing you the door. ItGÇÖs just too much science fiction.

Awesome creepy movie until the cheesy plot twists with aliens and sh*t [that was a spoiler. I am not sorry, I just saved you from watching a terrible movie if you haven't seen it yet. ])
Pretty much nothing is known. All we have are the director's previous 2 films, Children of Men, and Harry Potter: Azkaban.
Although I vaguely remember him saying it's rooted in reality, if it goes fantastical at all, he is more apt to take some turns in a "2001" direction anyway. |

Apparently, getting reservations for dining out is now an online cyber-bot battles you can't win, like hotel reservations, airline seats, and concert tickets.
"After a while of running this script I had captured a good amount of data. One day I found myself looking at it and noticed that as soon as reservations became available on the website (at 4am), all the good times were immediately taken and were gone by 4:01am. It quickly became obvious that these were reservation bots at work."

Chunks of bread began flying through the air, soon joined by other foodstuffs. In the words of the diligent Alta reporter, "[A] trussed turkey or roast crackling might be seen describing erratic courses across the pavilion. Greasy pieces of pork came in violent contact with bald uncovered pates. ...Wine flowed freely. ...
One man bearing the French flag across his shoulders, climbed up, inspired by the encouraging shouts around him, but missing his hold, unfortunately rent his nether garment in a manner too shocking to relate."

It will never happen, the Empire is spreading east and it is Brussels Manifest Destiny to reach the Pacific Ocean, so they believe it seems. It will change no doubt, but at present its the frontier and being brought up to speed as fast as realistically possible. Homophobia seems to be linked to a closed society in some way, either in traditional culture or being religious or out to score political points with those that do believe that to be so. Personally I don't care, men taking men out of the race leaves more ladies for me

It's just a deliberately bad film made in the spirit to reflect the kind they used to show on MST3K.
The only thing keeping further MST3K from being on the air is the difficulty (read: reluctance) of networks to schedule a 2 hour timeslot.
People can only focus for one hour max, doncha know, doncha know ?  |

Good God. This is how bad it is in Flori-derp.
I've been wondering why almost every intersection on the main road outside (and it's really the main north/south road for Tampa) is flooded with water that takes a week to evaporate. Makes my walk to the grocers hazardous as at a few of them I have to wait for the heavy traffic to die down as one has to run out into the main road to get around these 'puddles'.
I finally did some close observation, and at absolutely none of the intersections are there any STORM DRAINS !!!!!
Yes, a major city built in a swamp.............and they didn't even put in storm drains. AT ALL.
God help me. This place sucks.
edit: It's kinda similar to Louisiana. We 'doll up' the tourist areas of Miami and Orlando for the tourists, same as with New Orleans. But anywhere else, and OMG you are in backwoods, backwards hellish hell. |

So "Wolverine" opens and immediately leaps to top of the boxoffice followed by "The Conjuring", "Despicable Me 2" and "Turbo", none of which were predicted to be doing as well as they are.
Absolutely no sign of the hugely budgeted "big films" is present. ("Man of Steel" "Lone Ranger" "Pacific Rim" "That Thing with Will Smith and His Son")
"Despicable Me 2" is actually the 'bravest', proving there is a place for nonsensical silliness.
Even Woody Allen's latest, "Blue Jasmine," opened in just six theaters but still brought in $612,767, about par for when they wind up being successful (it's supposed to be fantastic). |

With a straight face tell me the USA is impartial in the Iraeli/Palestinian peace process. And yea, Brazil is becoming a world power slowly in its own right, generally untarnished reputation and has the ear of the worlds major powers. Would weight and attention be paid to its positions, probably not as much as the other great powers but all will listen and hear it out. As a diplomat should be. What's wrong with them being Catholic?
I'm not happy that the US involves itself with either side, tbh. Personally, I like both sides of this equation, and I just find the whole thing sad.
Catholics believe in a completely different messiah from the Muslims. The Jewish People don't even believe in either. Staunch Catholics from the other side of the world are not gonna help matters.

Welp, that hasn't happened yet over there since 1948 despite constant trying. More accurately it hasn't happen to all parties at the table at the same time. There has been progress till something or other threw a spanner in the works. I'm reasonably sure that when the West Bank and Israel talk they can come to an agreement. I don't think Gaza can be helped until they have reason to trust something other than their own belief they can fight and win. Fix the WB, give them a position to lead Gaza out as a third entity or as part of Palestine. Am I naive, yes probably, but so's pretty much everyone that doesn't think this will end without some sort of major war. Two main sticklers in that scenario would be the settlements and Jerusalem. I live in hope, but appreciate the hard reality  EDIT : Reason to have faith in diplomacy, Warsaw Pact and NATO never had a direct confrontation.
One would hope that after 65 years both sides would get bored and give up.
But the argument has really been going on for thousands of years.
I'm not known for being overly cynical, but I honestly cannot see any kind of solution. The issues run too deep. |

Yup. "Rosemary's Baby" the miniseries. Because the classic Polanski film just sucks bad. Besides absolutely nobody clamoring for this to be done, there just isn't enough story there really for beyond 2 hours.
And another miniseries of Stephen King's "The Tommyknockers". Yes, another. Done in 1993 with Jimmy Smits. And for a really minor novel in his catalog.

A wise person once told me there are three subjects that shouldn't be discussed since they always inevitably lead to confrontation - Politics, Religion and Sex. Pertaining to the forum rules, common sense depicts those subjects as walking a very fine line which should be avoided.
For the record I'm not taking it personally. I'm just sick and tired of constantly seeing negative BS being posted here in this thread. In fact I do not condone posting political sh*t about any country, especially if it's negative. Some people think spam posting negative remarks about political affiliations, religious beliefs or sexual preferences is fun and acceptable but not everyone views it the same way. CCP certainly doesn't.
Just in case you forgot, this game and these forums are owned by CCP and we as users are governed by their rules, not the Bill Of Rights granting free speech or whatever other excuse you wanna use.
This should be a venue to get away from the irritations of the real world, a time to relax and enjoy some pleasantries. Not a place to dwell on negative aspects of life that's constantly being pushed into our faces on a daily basis.
Hell, most of the time it's being directed towards the USA. The vast experience shown in the linking of over-sensationalized news reports filled with negative rubbish and bile is irritating and depressing. Not to mention it's constantly being spam posted. If you wanna be some sort of political science major or radio talk show host, do it in college or better yet, get a live BLOG stream happening.
Now for some real negativity. Since this issue is now a gang bang and push has turned into shove, let's have moderation decide what is acceptable and allowed per forum rules. Obviously this will not turn out well..
By the way, take your own advice and BUZZ OFF.

It strikes me as more of the type of complaining that tends to come from overly conservative and religious oriented parenting, where they lobby to have all objectionable material removed from TV networks, even HBO.
They seem to be unaware that they are not required to view the material, and there are both other channels and an off button.........and even disposal of the television set if its all just too, too upsetting. |

Just read another article about the Pope and gays and apparently he is seriously serious about that.
I wonder if this will affect things in Eastern Eurpoe atm, and if Russian Orthodoxy even listens to the Vatican ? I have no idea from personal experience.....
""When I meet a gay person, I have to distinguish between their being gay and being part of a lobby. If they accept the Lord and have goodwill, who am I to judge them? They shouldn't be marginalized. The tendency (to homosexuality) is not the problem ... they're our brothers."
The problem, he said was, lobbies that work against the interest of the church.
In 2005, during the papacy of Pope Benedict XVI, the Vatican issued directives barring from the priesthood men "who are actively homosexual, have deep-seated homosexual tendencies, or support the so-called 'gay culture.'"
Francis' brief remarks seem to signal a sharp shift from that policy." |

Yeah. S'ridiculous. "If someone's abusing it, we clearly need to ban it! And our definition of 'abuse' will be arbitary and assume that the magical age of 18 means you're mature enough to not abuse everything."
Don't forget, you can die for America in battle at age 18, but it'll be an alcohol-free death until you are 21. And you know the military enforces that for sure. |

So, I've been watching the "Today" show for the about 2 months now as there isn't really anything else on that early in the morning. Man, the musical groups they have on almost everyday that perform on their outdoor stage in NYC........
I don't know. They all sound EXACTLY THE SAME. It does not matter if it is "Train" or "Robin Thicke" or whoever, every day I absolutely cannot distinguish any difference in sound, quality, composition, style, or ambitions. There is somethimes a reggae-flavor thrown in I guess for ethnic cred .
It's just such a difference from when my mother and I were stuck in a motel room for an afternoon when dad was on business and we saw "Blondie" on the Merve Griffin Show and were BLOWN AWAY OUT THE WINDOW by the performance.
What a change in the quality of pop music.

What benefit is there and what is gained ? Especially when it is funny maybe to an 8 year old ?

That, and they wheel out every argument about whatever their agenda is and clumsily shoehorn it into the outrage of the week.
Oh I agree completely. And yes politicians are too Internet-Iliterate to even have a clue about any of it really.

The arguments of the men in the Middle East and India now are appalling, all that "they were dressed to ask for it. They shouldn't dress that way" etc. etc.
They suffer from severe adult infantilism where the male libido takes no responsibility, and the rest of society is expected to 'protect' them by whatever means that they cannot control as they are 'defenseless infants'.
It's really sickening and disturbing from a psychological standpoint.

Y'know, people just don't understand the word "No" anymore. Like the concept is alien or something.
This includes street beggars and young drug-addicted homeless guys who, even after you tell them you have no change on you, still persist and follow one still asking. It happens to me several times a week. In San Francisco it was even worse.

There are times where I realize my income has tracked with inflation for the last five years and go, "Well, hey! At least I have a full-time job." It seems like the last time we had a really solid economy in the west was in the '90s, even though that was based on one hell of a bubble.
It all started in 1999 when myself and others were the first 'let go' victims of the Dot Bust in San Francisco.
911 drove the stake in even further.

New York-size sodas get green light from appeals court
"The Supreme Court's Appellate Division found that the city's Board of Health "failed to act within the bounds of its lawfully delegated authority" when it moved to ban sugary drinks of more than 16 ounces in New York City restaurants, movie theaters, and other food service establishments."
I can't believe they were even trying this after the example of failure in San Francisco when they banned fast food meals with toys included (which means I missed out on the Avatar Happy Meal stuff) and then 3 months later MCDonalds had the brilliant workaround of just charging a dollar for the toy.
The law just said it can't be a 'free' toy. |

To the regular LAGL posters - If you think this course of action was initiated by me, guess again.

To be completely honest, a few years ago our PBS station ran the very first 2 made for TV live broadcast shows that Streisand did in the early 60's.
I must say they were actually really really amazing. Trippy sets and everything and I found the whole thing quite fun.
I normally can't stand the showtune stuff but I must admit she is the best, top of the heap genius, especially back then.
Oh, and Liza in the film "Cabaret" is a close 2nd, but then that's an amazing film, and not what you expect at all if you have not seen it. The last shot in the film is terrifying. |

NEW YORK (AP) GÇö Colliding stunts on Discovery and The Weather Channel next week feel like another "Sharknado."
Discovery is holding its 26th annual Shark Week of programming at the same time The Weather Channel is airing Hurricane Week.
The weather folks can't resist a joke about it, airing a promotional ad that depicts a giant shark flying away in a stiff wind that references both Shark Week and "Sharknado," the Syfy network movie that has become a campy classic this summer.

As it is a known fact now that the entire base of cloud storage is compromised in the USA, there is no 'safe' place for confidential data storage at all, so I expect we are going to see a further diversification and balkanization AND nationalization of the Internet ala China, etc.
This will make a lot we take for granted now difficult.

Hey Makoto, I remembered a funny quote from Stephenson's historical fiction trilogy "The Baroque Cycle" about a Scottish revolutionary lass:
"As if she were the embodiment of the spirit of Scotland's fury itself, she came pounding up the stairs, her red hair flyng, with a fistful of skirt in one hand and a pistol in the other." 
That kind of 'phrase turning'.
Later, he actually gets to whip out "Nobody expects the Spanish Inquisition" for a good reason.  |

This description of Woody Allen's film has a key to grasping the "Sharknado" phenomena:
9. "What's Up, Tiger Lily?" (1966)
Three years before he made his first live-action comedy, Take the Money and Run, Allen took a bad ersatz-James Bond '60s Japanese spy caper and dubbed in entirely new dialogue GÇö the directorial equivalent of defacing a subway poster.
The result may barely be a movie, but it's also one of the most crazily hilarious curios in movie history.
There are priceless lines throughout, and Allen turns the Tokyo-a-go-go settings and mugging grade-Z stars into a burlesque on the very notion of how schlock movies are constructed and how we get sucked into them. GÇöOwen Gleiberman |

Yes !!
For the first time in History, Entertainment Weekly and myself are on the same wavelength!
WORST 1. September (1987)
The perfect storm of unwatchable Woodyisms: It's a fiasco of morose mannerisms made when he was still trying to imitate the moody solemnity of Ingmar Bergman; it's one of his ponderous literary knockoffs (in this case, of Chekhov's Uncle Vanya).
It casts Mia Farrow as a suicidal depressive in Coke-bottle glasses and reduces the actress to quivering, disaffected tics; and Allen got into such a control-freak mode when he made it that he actually trashed the first version and shot the entire thing again with a different cast. All the reshoots in the world, however, couldn't imbue September with what it lacks: a shred of life. GÇöOwen Gleiberman |

I'm worshiping at the altar of George Clooney this morning (....half the thread flees in terror)......
What a brave brave man.
He's opening up about the 'problems' with movies, including the ones I yammer about, but with a focus on a certain venture capitalist.
Check this:...... "GÇ£ItGÇÖs crazy he has weight in this conversation at all,GÇ¥ Clooney continued. GÇ£If guys like this are given any weight because theyGÇÖve bought stock and suddenly feel they can tell us how to do our business GÇö one he knows nothing about GÇö this does great damage than trickles down."
"GÇ£[Loeb] calls himself an activist investor, and I would call him a carpet bagger, and one who is trying to spread a climate of fear that pushes studios to want to make only tent poles,GÇ¥
"Clooney is also the guy who keeps a photo of himself as Batman prominently displayed on his office wall, as a cautionary reminder of what can happen when you make movies solely for commercial reasons.

They were my favourite band since the late eighties and got me into the whole goth subculture as a teenager, I even have some rare vinyl records where they still had a saxophone in the band. I saw them live about 5 times already, awesome live band, if you can get a ticket for one of their shows DOO EEEET!

The Despicable Jane Austen British Bank Note Kerfluffle has at least revealed an Internet truth:
"It doesnGÇÖt matter what happens, or what changes, or whose face replaces whoseGÇöwe are angry about it anyway; we are chock full of clever and not so clever criticism; we canGÇÖt wait to take them apart whoever they are, and whatever it is.
And the violent rage against a female writer or politician who says, well, anything, is there to be tapped into at any point. The bomb threat and **** threat are there, ready to happen, with or without the bonneted face of a nineteenth century woman.
It is ironic that Austen, the elegant, precise satirist that she was, should provoke this crude and unsophisticated and wild meanness.
She was no stranger to anger, to simmering resentments and harsh judgments, to taking people down a notch, but her sentences were if anything the opposite of GÇ£a bomb was placed in front of your house.GÇ¥

" The reason Americans werenGÇÖt freaking out over this NSA thing, Milgrim assumed, was that theyGÇÖd already been taking it for granted, since at least the 1960s, that the CIA was tapping everybodyGÇÖs phone. It was the stuff of bad episodic television. It was something little kids knew to be true."

Great quotage from an article about how most people absolutely miss the point of "The Great Gatsby":
"A few years ago, Prince Harry attended a Gatsby-themed 21st birthday party that cost $25,000 to throw.
The following year, Paul McCartney threw his own expensive Gatsby birthday gala (although they're Brits, so in their case we could at least understand why they'd want to dance on the corpse of the American dream).  
Meanwhile, if you dare venture into Pinterest, you'll find page after page of users collecting material for Gatsby-themed weddings. As Zachary Seward of The Atlantic puts it, "It's like throwing a Lolita-themed children's birthday party.""

edit: To me it seemed as if the point of the film was that this is pretty much a bad idea. How it can possibly encourage imitation, I really have no idea, and just further wonder at humanity tbh. |

This is going to be spammed to every Civil Engineer I know. Think I broke a funny fuse  I don't think it can be stressed just how much of a cockup it is to not put in an elevator shaft in a skyscraper, its used as a main structural feature in the centre. Its maybe 1 or two steps removed from the foundations 
I guess Spain does not have Inspectors that monitor during the construction, only afterwards ??? This would've been halted immediately in the US especially from the perspective of the Americans with Disabilities Act issues.
And the story is spreading. I got the original Tweet, but 4 other retweets from humor sites to SF authors, so it's making the rounds for sure.

She is an elegant and well-dressed nice lady who was refused service for illegitimate reasons. End of story. The "protocol" on this for any business is to make sales, not determine who can buy what. Or even see what. (She was not even allowed a view of the exclusive line). That's just bad business practice period.

Yeah, kinda amazing as when they were filming it, cyberpunk did not even exist in word or concept.
But the near simultaneous release of "Blade Runner", "Tron", and a slew of short stories by about 6 different SF authors, none of whom were even in communication beforehand..........suddenly these things all had a weird commonality, and the genre was birthed.
Talk about a zeitgeist 'being in the air". It's such an extraordinary example of this concept. |

I can pretty much only appreciate Bob Fosse's work in "Cabaret" "Chicago", and "All That Jazz". Dance just isn't really my thing at all. (And Twyla Tharp - "Hair" and the brief ballet part of "Amadeus".....and her work with David Byrne on "The Catherine Wheel".) |

50s and 60s Sci Fi was far too goody goody and sterile. the gritty 70s and 80s needed gritty sci fi.
Unfortunately, the tenets of the subgenre were pretty much relegated to cinema and TV production and influences in modern design and all that.
There was a lot of gritty SF in the 70's arising out of the New Wave authors such as Michael Moorcock and Samuel R. Delaney. William Gibson introduced ideas, like computer viruses, that could actually be developed by real people later.
So, although we do see a huge influence in cyberpunk design and style in films, the SF 'Literary Community" were the ones who actually branded it cyberpunk, as separate from regular SF, so that regular SF could keep on keeping on, selfishly unchanged. |

I hadn't really seen her act or anything until "Prairie Home Companion", and I was really really impressed with her, holding her own against Meryl Streep and Lily Tomlin. But even those powerful and formidable women couldn't seem to get through to her.
It's really sad.

From the failed marketing of "Pacific Rim" on down the line it's been a really strange year.
These companies act somewhat independently of the studios, but get so much money for what little they really do, it's at that point where they are making so much money they just don't really care anymore.
Every great review I've read about "Pacific Rim" laments that it's really nothing like the ads at all. |

Instead of doing drive-by shootings in their own neighborhoods, these young thugs will do beatings and murders of people "trying to escape" -- people who all seem to be leaders and members of groups that oppose Obama."

I feel manipulated. It's all a conspiracy. Russell Crowe George Clooney paid all the other production teams to make their ads look the same, so Gravity would be the only one you'd be interested in watching.
He is indeed a very smart man.

"I've known adventures, seen places you people will never see, I've been Offworld and back ... frontiers! I've stood on the back deck of a blinker bound for the Plutition Camps with sweat in my eyes watching the stars fight on the shoulder of Orion. I've felt wind in my hair, riding test boats off the black galaxies, and seen an attack fleet burn like a match and disappear. I've seen it, felt it!"

"Soundwave said, "My big dream is to let you take them in empire as well." He also said, "These have so much potential." He called them a "low level kind of sov or ownership thing." How lucrative would high-sec become to an alliance like Goonswarm if it could collect taxes from PI carebears by owning all the Custom Offices? That's like free ISK. Do you think that might get Goonswarm's attention? They attacked TEST and fought a months long war for moons. How much easier to take high-sec POCOs from "smaller industrial tycoons" as CCP Soundwave called them?

Poetic Stanziel wrote a terrible terrible blog (as usual, but anyway) about how POS changes are only desired by less than 10% of the playerbase in the Reasonable Things Voting, so CCP should devote resources to other things this Winter.
Does the idiot not realize that POSes are only of concern to the very very few players who actually have to anchor and manage these things ?
Encouraging CCP to ignore the POS situation based on this reasoning is just...........sigh. |

Don't get me wrong. I am not opposed to violence in films and such. Never have been.
One of my first theatrical experiences was at age 5 at "Airport" (1970) where towards the end a bomb explodes on the plane (oops...spoiler) and people get sucked out and everything. And we were taking our first flying vacation ever to Berlin in less than 2 weeks !
So, I got early exposure for sure....and I'm not sure what my family did to convince me that that was not going to happen on our flight. But I did love the flight and was excited to learn we would 'take off' again after layover in Reykjavik (little did I know how looming that town was in my future ).
"A Clockwork Orange" is one of the best Films EVER and I was a fan of Tarantino during my first 3 back to back viewings of "Reservoir Dogs" the week it came out on 'tape' as I had read nothing in any review that didn't have me salivating for it.
The thing with me is I guess is that there is just a certain way of depicting these kinds of things. And over the past 10 years or so I've just recognized a growing casual, arrogant use of this kind of material by young filmmakers who understand the technical aspects of film and making everything look great, but know absolutely nothing of the language of cinema.
Just showing the violence with the flimsiest of pretexts (just because you can film something doesn't mean you should) without any sense of style at all.... just endlessly flinging it at the screen for sheer impact or shock value over and over again just finally becomes offensive.
Whether it's his mastery of the shock of sudden, unexpected violence, or the close up of blood spraying across blossoming cotton bushes............Tarantino does it with style, and meaning and reason behind all of it.
Anyway, I don't wanna ramble on. Just didn't want you guys thinking I had a prudish sense of censorship about this kind of movie. But I find the scene with the described German Shepherd in this film to be all wrong, unlike how I felt about a similar scene in "Sin City" which I loved.
It's a fine line. Always will be. |

Speaking of forgetting the past, just got directed to a great NEW article about the self-banned Disney film "Song of the South" which I was lucky enough to see on it's 1974 re-release.
When I worked at a video store, this was indeed requested by elderly black people who fondly remembered it, moreso than asked for by whites.
Disney really needs to "un-ban" this amazing film. The ride "Splash Mountain" is based on it after all.
"In the 1940s, Walt Disney set out on a deeply personal and quixotic venture to produce a live-action/animation hybrid adaptation of the Uncle Remus stories by (white) author Joel Chandler Harris. This was no B-picture throwawayGÇôit was a decade-long project with significant technical innovations and commercial risks." |

Rating is useless and can't be applied as there is no rating violation within the film itself at all.
America has a strange way of trying to want to forget it's past utterly. I could understand if the film had slavery in it or something. But a few people carrying around food trays and 'cleaning' apparently is too close of a depiction. I'm not really sure. That's just the way things were in the 1860's.
It's almost a fascist erasing of national history. No different. |

Yeah, the weird thing is that the final 1986 re-release happened without comment, and the film was vaulted by Disney, but only in America. They were not told to and there was no protesting. Weird that they opened the associated ride 3 years later in 1989.
Weird weird weird.
Just the whole story is strange and unique in film history. |

Wow. Since Odyssey I occasionally have my clients freeze during gate jump session changes. Maybe 1 out of 75 jumps.
But I just hand held an alt 9 jumps from Rens to Gamis with 3 crashes at jump gates.
Cache cleared and I ran Repair over the weekend. But this is worse. It was fine last night.
Anyone else been having this issue since Odyssey ?
I think it's tied in to the new Scan Overlay.
After one jump (that didn't crash) everything looked fine but for the Overview missing, so I had to re-log anyway.

I still like listening to the older stuff and old groups who are still around (that last Duran Duran album was actually unbelievably fantastic).
But I've enjoyed more following the evolution of Progressive House for over a decade now. Hardly any vocals to get in the way of the compositions.
And the Breakbeat group Hybrid is incredible as well, especially song "Break my Soul". |

They originally got my attention in 2000 by using David Lynch alumnus Jullie Cruise from "Twin Peaks" as their singer.
Different lead singers hired for each album until3 years ago they found Charlotte James and made her permanent. |

yeah. it looks cool and all that of course.
but I just see it as yet another distraction away from the development and (ahem) fixing of EVE that still needs to be done. diverting to Dust and WoD those couple of years got us slapped in the face with Incarna and for me this just further confounds the problem.
like everything else it seems like nowadays, it's overdoing things a bit much imho. ccp biting off more than they can chew.
one little mistake of the right kind in just one of these projects can bring down DUST, WoD, Valkerie, AND EVE.

In mob rule though, the ones with the loudest voices and biggest sticks will always trump the better idea.

The better film was Disney's "Return to Oz" (1985), made when Disney was floundering, with a dead animation department and no direction in regular film at all.
It seriously creeped out kids of that generation and rightly so. Many had and still have nightmares about it. I was in my early 20s and I found parts indeed quite unnerving.

The New Season-Two STAR TREK: ENTERPRISE Blu documentaries are certainly interesting as far as trying to parse just what exactly what all went wrong.
But this comment is certainly a clue as to what the creators and writers were up against at UPN:
"One UPN exec, says Braga, pitched the idea that a different boy band would board the Enterprise and perform a musical number each week."
 
addendum: "Bakula says he was not permitted to take his uniform with him at series end, then years later found himself autographing that very uniform (now somehow owned by a fan)." |

Argh!
Seth McFarlane's new sitcom "Dads" has not even aired yet and is drawing tons of racism complaints.
People are now so uneducated they cannot distinguish between hateful, damaging racism and humor that makes fun of racist attitudes and the projected stereotypes.
The only scene I've seen has a cute Asian girl in school uniform walking up to Giovanni Ribisi who exclaims "Well, helllllooooo, kitty !"
Offended ?
I didn't think so. In real life that would be horrible, but the message is no different from what other sitcoms were exposing in this manner over 40 years ago.

C'mon Internetz. "Bradley Wommaning" is somewhere around a 3rd grader joke.
Also, ALL media still saying "he" wants to become female. Sorry, but the determination has already been made, and anything other than "she wants" is highly disrespectful.
And I'm sure you all can find about 50 things wrong with this now 'famous' Tweet:
ArchSquare Media @ArchSquare
#BradleyManning, convicted in #Wikileaks data that endangered US troops, wants to be female. Yes, #Obama put more fa** in the military. A**.
...starting with the fact he was in the military looooong before that went down.
And then there are America's Only Taxpayer Ever:
David F. Baskwill @dfbaskwill
I really don't want to pay for Bradley Manning's transgender surgery, but I'll bet I will.
.....even though it is not covered by the military and wont be. But didn't blink an eye to pay for **** Cheney's 11 fresh hearts.
And finally those who think transexuality is ridiculous
Jeffrey @JWcolour
Bradley Manning wants to live rest of his life as a female. And I shall live the rest of my life as an octopus.
Sigh. Such a long way to go still.....................

They are making the body catch up to those 'brain hormones'. That's all. The hormones used medically only affect the physical appearance.
Needless to say, I knew many, many transgenders in San Francisco in all types of social circumstances. The only times ever that I had a problem was those whom had been friends of mine for awhile and then decided this was the best option for themselves.
I have no problem with the idea at all, but after everything was 'done', even the person's personality had changed. Suddenly, I was dealing with someone who was not the friend I had met and made. It was someone else, and eventually the friendships died.
But I sometimes can't help thinking if that's more to do with a flaw in me, than them directly.. |

Perhaps debatable topics shouldn't be brought up in an editorial manner in the first place then? What I said wasn't intended to be hateful, just matter of fact. (and yeah, a little snarky) Either way, I've no respect for Manning for other reasons, and I'll leave the rest of the topic alone.
That's cool. I wasn't offended. Believe me, I do understand how you feel.
What was crazy was there was a big push by a group in San Francisco to have him made an honorary grand Marshall in their Pride Parade back in June.
That was hooted down roundly and I agreed. What he did had absolutely nothing to do with the advancement of gay rights. It's just a side-note to his identity. |

Star Wars Episode VII will NOT be shot using digital media ! It will use 35mm Film
The Cinematographer is Dan Mindel, JJ Abram's regular dude, so expect the expected lens flares most indeed. 
".....the most important thing about them not shooting in 3D is that Abrams now has a lot more in-camera tricks he can do, like building real models and miniatures instead of relying on CG."
"....confirms that Abrams at the very least is aiming to go back to the roots of what makes Star Wars work: shot on film, scored by a genius composer and heavy on mind-blowing model work." |

Idiot Warner Brothers is Idiotic Idiot (grrrrrr.....)
Upcoming "Twilight Zone" reboot with director of "TRON:Legacy" and "Oblivion".
....and Warner Brothers can't be bothered to lift a finger to hire even one great genre writer like Richard Matheson or the other SF authors who contributed originally.
Hired literally an unknown writer who was one of the producers of "Heroes" on TV and that's it.
My interest has evaporated. |

Thats not just welsh, but its still practiced in the more rural parts. Could also be done in the scottish highlands. It was also practiced to a lesser extent in the western areas of England such as Gloucestershire. Mostly now is become involved in the tradition of "staying up" with the body overnight until morning to ready them for the funeral. But given that funerals are seldom next day now, its no longer done really.
I found the presence of Richard Thomas from "The Waltons" disconcerting while watching it ! 
And Geraldine Page...later to star in Woody Allen's infamous "Interiors" and Best Actress Oscar for "The Trip to Bountiful" (which she 'stole' from Sigourney Weaver for "Aliens"). These old shows are fun. |

Restored and released to some theaters next month, with 14 minutes 'never before seen cut' that had been chopped by distributor to fit on a double-bill originally.
Christopher Lee is ecstatic.

Betty White meme of Miley Cyrus
Excerpts from the FRISCO (did I type that) Chronicle article about the debacle:
"I spent most of the last 20 hours doing my best to ignore Miley Cyrus. But everywhere I turned, there she was. Or, more specifically, there was her bottom thrust up at Robin Thicke in his black and white striped Beetlejuice suit."
"On NBCGÇÖs GÇ£TodayGÇ¥ show, guest co-anchor Brooke Shields, who played CyrusGÇÖs mom on GÇ£Hannah Montana,GÇ¥ called the performance GÇ£desperate.GÇ¥
"She did what she set out to do GÇö she delivered the moment of the evening that everyone is talking about today and will probably still be talking about in 10, 20, even 30 years.
Just like Madonna did, writhing around stage in a wedding dress as she sang GÇ£Like A Virgin,GÇ¥ at the very first Video Music Awards." |

"Gravity" has opened at the Venice Film Festival last night.
Here are some comments:  \o/ FTW !
""At once the most realistic and beautifully choreographed film ever set in space, Gravity is a thrillingly realized survival story spiked with interludes of breath-catching tension and startling surprise."
"........while Bullock is aces in by far the best film she's ever been in."
""As scripted by Cuaron and his son Jonas, this tale of one woman's grim expedition into the unknown is a nerve-shredding suspenser, a daring study in extreme isolation, and one of the most sophisticated and enveloping visions of space travel yet realized onscreen."
"...a howl in the wilderness that sucks the breath from your lungs. It comes blowing in from the ether like some weightless black nightmare, hanging planet Earth at crazy angles behind the action."
".....the directorGÇÖs long-overdue follow-up to GÇ£Children of MenGÇ¥ is at once a nervy experiment in blockbuster minimalism and a film of robust movie-movie thrills, restoring a sense of wonder, terror and possibility to the bigscreen that should inspire awe among critics and audiences worldwide." |

Lots of pink slips over the next few years in this industry... They work amongst food yet are not paid enough to properly feed themselves at all. The equivalent wage cost pee hour of automated production including capital, maintenence and energy is around $13 an hour and going down in real terms every year. Over here we have self checkouts where people scan and pack their own goods with one person looking over the ranks. 12 people redudant through technology rendering it obsolete. The fast food industry hadn't done this yet because sentient meatbags did the job of an automaton cheaper. Now if the strikers win, they will be phased out over a few years or like with the strike on the Simpsons where the cast asked for a payrise, they instead had to accept a 1/3 cut to stop the borderline profitable show being cancelled. This strike is however good for my friends doing mechatronics who wilk be designing the robotic systems though.

Daily Neal:
"One day a couple of weeks later, as Lawrence and Alan Turing sat by a running stream in the woods above the Delaware Water Gap, Alan made some kind of an outlandish proposal to Lawrence involving penises. It required a great deal of methodical explanation, which Alan delivered with lots of blushing and stuttering. He was ever so polite, and several times emphasized that he was acutely aware that not everyone in the world was interested in this sort of thing."
"Then there was nothing left to do but drink schnapps and talk about math."

Neil Degrasse Tyson's list of Must-Read Books:
The Bible [to learn that it's easier to be told by others what to think and believe than it is to think for yourself];
The System of the World (Newton) [to learn that the universe is a knowable place];
On the Origin of Species (Darwin) [to learn of our kinship with all other life on Earth];
Gulliver's Travels (Swift) [to learn, among other satirical lessons, that most of the time humans are Yahoos];
The Age of Reason (Paine) [to learn how the power of rational thought is the primary source of freedom in the world];
The Wealth of Nations (Smith) [to learn that capitalism is an economy of greed, a force of nature unto itself];
The Art of War (Sun Tsu) [to learn that the act of killing fellow humans can be raised to an art];
The Prince (Machiavelli) [to learn that people not in power will do all they can to acquire it, and people in power will do all they can to keep it].
If you read all of the above works you will glean profound insight into most of what has driven the history of the western world. |

The trailer asks "who's in control?" then immediately answers the question, and gives away what is presumably a major plot point. FFS. Edit: it does look cool otherwise, though. It's just the trailer's trying to hard to imply the film's message, they've gone and straight up told us the message. I think I can probably figure out the main undertone in a couple of minutes just from the trailer, which kind of misses the point. well... i dont think this movie is marketed at a robocop reboot.. its more like "upgrade to today's action standards" so im assuming.. the plot will almost entirely remain similar. also i just noticed.. our hair color are switched lol.
When the original came out, it was actually funny that someone would hire a privatized security company to run things. They did not exist at all back then. Now, well........... |

I think it has more to do with inferior education anymore and folks being told by marketing departments just what to like exactly, which folds in nicely to all the studio heads being cinematic know-nothing accountants.

Indeed. Even when I was at Worldcon in 1988, the gaming aspect was still not that big of a deal so they were not really present then.
It seems like an invasion from the know-nothings who are just in all actuality trend-hoppers. Except they have been stuck in gaming for 20 years or so now. |

San Francisco Myths:
Claim: A man was killed by a rising piano at the Condor Club in North Beach.
FACT. In 1983, bouncer Jimmy Ferrozzo was having relations with his girlfriend on top of the piano when the lift was activated and the piano rose to the ceiling. The bouncer was killed but his girlfriend Theresa Hill survived, pinned underneath him.
Now, a drink called Sex on the Piano honors Ferrozzo's memory.
Claim: Irish Coffee originated in San Francisco.
Technically. The drink was being served at the Shannon Airport in western Ireland when Chronicle travel writer Stanton Delaplane sampled it and helped re-create it at the Buena Vista in S.F. in 1952.
Claim: The Golden Gate Bridge was almost painted black and yellow instead of international orange.
FACT. The Navy wanted the bridge painted with black-and-yellow stripes so it was more visible to ships.
Claim: The first fortune cookies were served in S.F.
FACT. Fortune cookies were served at the 1894 California Midwinter International Exposition in Golden Gate Park.
Claim: Mark Twain named Tom Sawyer after a San Francisco firefighter.
FACT. Mark Twain named his most famous character after S.F. volunteer firefighter Tom Sawyer. Twain was drinking buddies with Sawyer, who had many adventures and helped save dozens of people on a steamship.
Claim: Dogs outnumber children in San Francisco.
FACT. The hard numbers vary, but the SPCA and the census agree that canines are more common that kids in S.F.
Claim: Mark Twain said 'the coldest winter I ever spent was a summer in San Francisco.'
FICTION. A great quote, but there's no evidence Twain ever said it. |

In 1971 in rural Arkansas at the age of 6, we were taught to say, during the Pledge of Alligience, "...one nation, indivisible", and not "one nation, under God".
I'm not sure when or how "under God" crept in, except references to it being added in 1954 as optional because of the Red Scare and all that. Arkansas either missed the memo or just didn't care. |

In fact, he's in all of Abram's films. And apparently Spielberg hid R2 in "Close Encounters" and "Raiders of the Lost Ark", which I will look for next time I watch them. Hard to believe I've never noticed before. |

Says R2 is in some the Spielberg produced as well, in "Goonies" and the first "Transformers". |

So, "Gravity" is going to be the best popcorn movie ever for adults ?
"The only thing I can really think to compare it to is Jurassic Park. Cuaron has created an incredibly detailed, entirely believable, utterly synthetic environment that appears indistinguishable from the real thing (or at least, for people who have never been in space, what you'd expect the real thing to look like), especially if you see it in IMAX 3D.
The visual effects, from the opening tracking shot on, are simply gob-smacking. I really can't say enough great things about the look and the design and the sheer grandeur of Gravity. If you pick against it in your Oscar pools in any effects category next February, you're just plain dumb. It's revolutionary." |

2) "Hunter" (could be a survivalist) target practicing.
Point being, guns don't even need to be used against someone for behaviors surrounding them to be just as destructive as well.

2 Ohio State Congressmen are the ones preventing Mt. McKinley from being properly named Denali.
"Despite efforts in Alaska, U.S. Representatives Betty Sutton and Tim Ryan, both of Ohio, have assumed Regula's role as congressional guardians of the Mount McKinley name and introduced H.R. 229 which reads: "Notwithstanding any other authority of law, the mountain located 63 degrees 04 minutes 12 seconds north, by 151 degrees 00 minutes 18 seconds west shall continue to be named and referred to for all purposes as Mount McKinley."
I was just curious after reading this entire article referring to it as Mt. McKinley, which I had not seen used in quite awhile. |

This sounds promising:
Joe Dante ("Gremlins", "Matinee") to direct "The Man with Kaleidoscope Eyes" based on the legendary producer/director Roger Corman's life in the mid-to-late '60s.
This would be roughly around the time that people like Jack Nicholson, Peter Fonda, Dennis Hopper, Pam Grier, Martin Scorsese, Francis Ford Coppola, Peter Bogdanovich, Jonathan Demme, and (you guessed it) Joe Dante were entering Corman's sphere.

Anybody else ever been disappointed by a film that promised to deliver something in its advertising or in its title ? This would probably apply mostly to b-grade films and such.
My favorite is "I Eat Your Skin" (1964)
Elvira featured it on her show which is how I got to finally see it. Like she said afterwards, "My God. We sat through that whole thing, and no skin was ever eaten....at all."

It just isn't stopping this year:
As the last idea in Hollywood was used up years ago, MGM has decided to just go ahead and do a remake of "Ben-Hur", one of the main old movies that people think of when you say the words "old movie."
And not only are they remaking the thing, guess who they want to direct it.
Ridley Scott?
Tom Hooper?
Kathryn Bigelow?
Nope.
Timur Bekmambetov................
............he guy who directed "Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter"
For real and true.
As Ridley is currently filming his own biblical epic "Exodus", expect this to be a 'who can be first' trend ala Abyss/Leviathan/Deep Star 6. |

For me, "300" and "Sharknado" are about equal. At least they both excellently deliver exactly what was promised.
I guess a good example of where that goes all wrong was Robert Altman's attempt at "Popeye" with Robin Williams. Pretty much a no-brainer, and one would think it can't be screwed up. And then Altman releases a film that is nothing more than 2 solid hours of incomprehensible, bleak depression.

New Neal Stephenson novel next year !  
2 back-to-back volumes......so far.
Set in historical past like Baroque Cycle, but he's not specifying when exactly.
Also, his (unbeknownst to me until now) Tall Tower project site is up:
"At an event in 2011, a university chief accused the author and other science-fiction writers of failing to pull their weight because they had not come up with big ideas to inspire researchers in the way Arthur C Clarke and Jules Verne had done earlier.
So he asked: "How tall can we build something?"
"I was at a conference a few years ago where I ran into an incredibly bright man who in another age would have been laying a transatlantic cable or building the first aeroplane or something. And he was spending all his time writing spam filters.
"I'm sure it was incredibly demanding mental work and quite valuable - but it just struck me that in a way it seems as though our scope has been reduced quite a bit when the brightest people of the generation are writing silly little apps or spam filters or what have you.
"So, this is just a somewhat playful, somewhat serious attempt to just raise that issue and get people talking about it." |

There never really has been one well known at all.

Yuppers. The post-apocalypse films are getting long in the tooth:
"For the rest of the movie-going world, who have endured innumerable trips to the other side of civilization's demise by now, the film is more likely to taste like a dish reheated far too often." --The Colony
For me the genre was tired back in 1974 ("The Omega Man"). And then the Mad Max films wrote the last word on it for good measure.
.....or so I thought back then. |

Made me feel like Grumpy Puss this morning:
"The SF 49ers' star pass-rusher Aldon Smith was arrested on charges of driving under the influence and ********* possession at 7 a.m. Friday. He reportedly hit a tree with his truck, sat in it while the wheels spun, blew a 0.15 on the Breathalyzer - almost twice the legal limit - was in possession of *********, and was hauled off to jail for a few hours before posting bail of $5,250.
Just in case you skimmed over the details, let me reiterate: He hit a tree, which could have just as easily been a human being.
This is Smith's second DUI arrest in 19 months. Smith, who will turn 24 Wednesday, was stabbed at a party at his house last year. He faces lawsuits from that event and possible prosecution on gun charges. He was involved in a single-car accident last year.
Harbaugh said that while he expected there to be consequences, any decision to suspend Smith was "the exclusivity of the league." He brushed off further questions with his standard, "I feel that ground's been plowed."
Yet Smith was at practice later in the day, and afterward Harbaugh said that he expected Smith to "be back to work and playing on Sunday."

Typing in my new sig-line reminded me of my first weekend in San Fran in 95. My friends took me out to the Beer Bust at the Eagle, which had such an event every Sunday afternoon on their open air back patio area (it's rather large). There was a benefit/fundraiser going on sponsored by a few of the leather biker groups.
The MC on stage was wise-cracking but finally commented on all the Lesbians in Leather in attendance (something I had never seen before----I guess women in Houston are averse to leather). "Wow, you never would have seen this here 10 years ago, that's for sure".

Early 20th Century San Francisco Baseball:
"But Old Rec's greatest claim to fame was the Booze Cage, a closed-off section of elevated benches at field level, running from first to third base around the back of home plate.
"The baselines were only about 15 feet from the Booze Cage, and the only thing separating the spectators from the players was a flimsy chicken-wire screen - which meant that everything the fans yelled could be clearly heard.
"The Booze Cage was so called because the 75-cent admission price included either a shot of whiskey, two bottles of beer, or a ham-and-cheese sandwich.
"Old Rec's eccentricities extended to the field of play and the ground rules. Next to the center field clubhouse was a 15-foot-high cutout figure of a bull; if a player hit it, Bull Durham tobacco would pay him $50.
"But the most memorable feature was a gas meter hole about 1 1/2 feet square at the bottom of the clubhouse. Any ball that rolled into the hole was a home run." Why do bikers wear leather ??-á Because chiffon wrinkles too easily.-á -- Paul Lynde |

"Sex Box absolutely intends to be an open and adult conversation about sex, something we feel is currently being overlooked by mainstream programming."
-- yes, as they focus on their open and child-centric conversations about it.  
"Those who appear have a personal reason for doing so - perhaps some felt that their sex lives were not represented in the media, so it was a chance to show the sort of sex they have.

Wow. This is just so absolutely rare. Folks see "Gravity" and are just..........
"I saw the much-anticipated new film from director and co-writer Alfonso Cuar+¦n (CHILDREN OF MEN; Y TU MAM+ü TAMBI+ëN) a couple weeks back, and I came out thinking one very clear thought: "I've never seen anything like that before in my life." It's not a thought that crosses my mind that often anymore (especially after watching a movie), and that's sad.
"But I've gotten so used to it, that when something like GRAVITY comes into my life, it's hard to let go. If you've seen clips or trailers for GRAVITY (as I'm sure most of you have), you're going to regret ever having seen a frame of this film out of context once you've seen the complete work.
"The film stars Sandra Bullock and George Clooney as a pair of astronauts (actually, she's a medical engineer, as she points out) that work together to stay alive after a horrific accident eliminates every possible place they have left to go in space.
"Technical achievements aside (I still don't know how they did most of what I saw in this film), GRAVITY is a tale about surviving, being very alone, and the things we cling to and remember when we're fairly certain the end is near. But on a pure geek level, well, the power of this film's effects are immeasurable. Any young children with dreams of being astronauts may have those dreams ripped from their hearts after seeing GRAVITY. At times, it's one of the most terrifying, awe-inspiring things you've ever seen." Why do bikers wear leather ??-á Because chiffon wrinkles too easily.-á -- Paul Lynde |

Michael Dietrich linked a funny article about the "Robocop" remake over in the Schwarzenegger Avatar 2 Thread.
"A hand on RoboCop is more doomed than a Hand in King's Landing." 
About that "Carrie" remake:
The actress playing her is (of course) too pretty. Half the point of the original story was that she is indeed a rather plain, homely girl. Sissy Spacek (who is not actually that homely) let them really work on making her somewhat unattractive. Someone whom one would believe would have trouble getting asked out to a prom.
This is just a case of dolling up the concept with CGI effects (which were not even needed during the original...why now ?). And a 'pretty and popular' actress. I mean, does a burning gym with locked doors really need computer help to make it more scary ? I don;t think so. If so, there is just a failure of imagination of all involved.

Another one for the pile of "Everybody must be a winner because losing is bad"
New California youth football mercy rule inflames
"Northern California Federation Youth Football League (NCFYFL) instituted stiff new penalties for any teams that beat opponents by 35 points or more.
"Specifically, those teams will be fined $200 and their coaches will be suspended from all league activities for two weeks. The penalty is a drastic change for the league of 7-13 year-olds, which previously issued teams with a warning following such blowouts and required a written description that detailed what the victorious team had done to try and keep scores low."
"One team has stopped attempting any field goals, leaving kicker James McHugh unable to attempt any scoring kicks except points after touchdowns. That's a problem for a 13-year-old who hopes to serve as a high school placekicker in fall 2014."
""Now they are afraid their coaches are going to get suspended and they are not going to have a coach to come out here and play football,"
""We lose a lot of football players because their teams lose so badly," Rochin told KCRA. "If they are constantly getting beat, who wants to play anymore? We lose kids all season long because of that.
"It's not hurting the kids, it's teaching them compassion for the other team.

I found the text of Neal Stephenson's famous character observation of the finer points of eating Cap'n Crunch Cereal which was suggested as read-aloud material for Sen. Ted Cruz today.
This is just a part of it and it is hilarious:
The gold nuggets of CapGÇÖn Crunch pelt the bottom of the bowl with a sound like glass rods being snapped in half Tiny fragments spall away from their corners and ricochet around on the white porcelain surface. World-class cereal-eating is a dance of fine compromises. The giant heaping bowl of sodden cereal, awash in milk, is the mark of the novice. Ideally one wants the bone-dry cereal nuggets and the cryogenic milk to enter the mouth with minimal contact and for the entire reaction between them to take place in the mouth.
Randy has worked out a set of mental blueprints for a special cereal-eating spoon that will have a tube running down the handle and a little pump for the milk, so that you can spoon dry cereal up out of a bowl, hit a button with your thumb, and squirt milk into the bowl of the spoon even as you are introducing it into your mouth. The next best thing is to work in small increments, putting only a small amount of CapGÇÖn Crunch in your bowl at a time and eating it all up before it becomes a pit of loathsome slime, which, in the case of CapGÇÖn Crunch, takes about thirty seconds.
He pours the milk with one hand while jamming the spoon in with the other, not wanting to waste a single moment of the magical, golden time when cold milk and CapGÇÖn Crunch are together but have not yet begun to pollute each otherGÇÖs essential natures: two Platonic ideals separated by a boundary a molecule wide. Where the flume of milk splashes over the spoon-handle, the polished stainless steel fogs with condensation. Randy of course uses whole milk, because otherwise why bother? Anything less is indistinguishable from water, and besides he thinks that the fat in whole milk acts as some kind of a buffer that retards the dissolution-into-slime process.
The giant spoon goes into his mouth before the milk in the bowl has even had time to seek its own level. A few drips come off the bottom and are caught by his freshly washed goatee (still trying to find the right balance between beardedness and vulnerability, Randy has allowed one of these to grow). Randy sets the milk-pod down, grabs a fluffy napkin, lifts it to his chin, and uses a pinching motion to sort of lift the drops of milk from his whiskers rather than smashing and smearing them down into the beard. Meanwhile all his concentration is fixed on the interior of his mouth, which naturally he cannot see, but which he can imagine in three dimensions as if zooming through it in a virtual reality display.
Here is where a novice would lose his cool and simply chomp down. A few of the nuggets would explode between his molars, but then his jaw would snap shut and drive all of the unshattered nuggets straight up into his palate where their armor of razor-sharp dextrose crystals would inflict massive collateral damage, turning the rest of the meal into a sort of pain-hazed death march and rendering him Novocain mute for three days. But Randy has, over time, worked out a really fiendish CapGÇÖn Crunch eating strategy that revolves around playing the nuggetsGÇÖ most deadly features against each other. The nuggets themselves are pillow-shaped and vaguely striated to echo piratical treasure chests. Now, with a flake-type of cereal, RandyGÇÖs strategy would never work.
But then, CapGÇÖn Crunch in a flake form would be suicidal madness; it would last about as long, when immersed in milk, as snowflakes sifting down into a deep fryer. No, the cereal engineers at General Mills had to find a shape that would minimize surface area, and, as some sort of compromise between the sphere that is dictated by Euclidean geometry and whatever sunken-treasure-related shapes that the cereal-aestheticians were probably clamoring for, they came up with this hard-to-pin-down striated pillow formation. The important thing, for RandyGÇÖs purposes, is that the individual pieces of CapGÇÖn Crunch are, to a very rough approximation, shaped kind of like molars. The strategy, then, is to make the CapGÇÖn Crunch chew itself by grinding the nuggets together in the center of the oral cavity, like stones in a lapidary tumbler. Like advanced ballroom dancing, verbal explanations (or for that matter watching videotapes) only goes so far and then your body just has to learn the moves.

I occasionally stumble across articles that do show a link between pleasure, drugs, and religion and how they work on the brain, and religion can apparently change how our brains "think" just like a drug.
ed: From my own experience, it's just as difficult to convince a religious person of some things as it is trying to convince an alcoholic that he is alcoholic (based on my own experience there). Why do bikers wear leather ??-á Because chiffon wrinkles too easily.-á -- Paul Lynde |

They're not like ammo where you can run out. When it was possible to forget your probes out in space, I lost maybe 3-4 sets of sister's probes over the years. Now I don't think you can lose them without intentionally abandoning them. So they're not a risky investment, and even at level 4-ish skills, using a sister's launcher and sister's probes, there are still some sites that can be difficult to probe out.
My tragedy is over the past spring I finally got my alt Infinitio level 5'ed in absolutely every Astrometrics skill. Then a month later, Odyssey cam out and made a lot of that moot.

Sister's Core Probe Mystery solved.
GM: " the base sensor strength for Sisters probes is 44 while normal core probes have 40."
Apparently this got altered from the old "Scan Strength Bonus" Percentage designation.
I let them know this is not obvious enough for new players to understand or even really see at a glance. Not even us old players.
But in a nutshell, yes they are still more powerful than standard probes.

I do indeed like the stuff coming in Rubicon but:
I started Krix here during Dominion, and Wormholes had been the latest big addition to the game.
That summer, Tyrannis introduce the next big thing to do, P I.
That winter, Incursion introduced the next big thing to do, welp, Incursions.
The following summer.................Incarna/CQ doesn't count as a "big new thing to do in space".
2 1/2 YEARS later now...................and still no "Big New Thing To Do".

Latest Hollywood Production announcements....and I'm not gonna bother to link:
New version of "Tarzan" anyone. Yeah, the public has been hankering for that. I don't even care if Christoph Waltz is the bad guy.
"Independence Day" SEQUEL. Sorry guys. No Will Smith OR Jeff Goldblum. Blech.
"Poltergeist": The Reboot. Cast of unknowns now but for Sam Rockwell, and he's barely known. And this horrible plot summary excerpt: "....their new home feeds on the isolation of others". I mean, wtf ? Isn't a reboot supposed to at least have the same concept ?

Wtf is up with the gaming industry? (full text below, linked for source only)
"Last year, sci-fi author Neal Stephenson and a team of game developers set out to make video game swordfighting awesome. They set up a Kickstarter campaign to fund the creation of hardware and software tech that would make replace console controllers with something more realistic.
Now, production on that tech and the game in which they showcase it has been halted. In an update on the Kickstarter page, Stephenson explains how they've sought other investments without success. The project is 'on pause,' and the team asks for patience.
He says, 'The overall climate in the industry has become risk-averse to a degree that is difficult to appreciate until you've seen it. It is especially bemusing to CLANG team members who, by cheerfully foregoing other opportunities so that they could associate themselves with a startup in the swordfighting space, have already shown an attitude to career, financial, and reputational risk normally associated with the cast members of Jackass. To a game publisher crouched in a fetal position under a blanket, CLANG seems extra worrisome because it is coupled to a new hardware controller.'"

Since he quit the game, I seriously wish Poetic would just stop writing, especially such idiocy as this:
"In terms of public relations, take the Somer Blink scandal. The CSM was not consulted on CCP's plans of giving Somer Blink unique prizes to offer through its for-profit service. Bypassing the CSM was not a mistake. If it were a mistake, then folks like CCP Navigator, CCP Manifest and CCP Pokethulu would be monumentally stupid people. I think those guys are anything but stupid, rather exceptionally bright. They knew exactly how the CSM would react to their partnership with Somer Blink. To have approached the CSM first would have denied them the ability to claim ignorance afterwards."

oopsies.
There used to be a thing called a newspaper that was delivered right to your front door. Inside, it would have pictures of the ads for movies with a handy listing of what times they are playing. And prominent announcements of opening days were quite visible upon glance. Times sure have changed for the better. 
I've never actually seen Breaking Bad, but I'm sure it's excellent, most obviously since Charlie Rose even had his little bit part on the show last week. He's not an actor, and isn't just going to appear in anything.
For me, it's just that over the years, I have seen too much of the effects of meth use upon friends and acquaintance. I've lost to many to it. And for me, I just can see any side of that kind of story that could be appealing in any way whatsoever to me. And honestly, I find it kinda creepy that so many are 'enjoying' it.

Wow, this episode description for "Ironside" certainly places it in the 70's:
Part 1. In Montreal, Ironside rekindles a romance and gets involved in the Quebec Separatist movement.

And the latest announcements for uninspired movie production:
De Vil Wears Prada ? (untitled)
"Glenn Close already gave a memorable performance as de Vil in two previous live-action films and it doesn't sound like they are going to remake the DALMATIANS story so where do they go with this? Is it going to be a prequel to the events of 101 DALMATIANS?
"Who are they going to get to portray de Vil? It is going to have to be a big name star and how are they going to separate their performance from feeling like an imitation of Close's? Why am I putting so much thought into what is likely just Disney trying to make some money off of a recognized property?"
"22 Jump Street"
Yup. A sequel.
Sigh. That is all. Peter Marshall: In "Alice in Wonderland", who kept crying "I'm late, I'm late?"-á Paul Lynde: Alice, and her mother is sick about it. |

Click the pics to find your state, and discover it's worst quality.
For where I have lived:
Arkansas - The worst average credit score (636) (believable, still lots of poor spots)
Texas - The lowest high school graduation rate (78.3%) (believable, producing such gems as Senator Ted Cruz)
Florida - The highest rate of identity theft (122.3 reports per 100,000 people) (who wants other people to know you actually live here ? AND my Wells Fargo account was hacked within 30 days of my moving here)
California - The worst air pollution (15.2 micrograms per cubic meter), and itGÇÖs home to the seven most-polluted individual cities in the country (and folks think Cali is all loaded up with environmental laws with fruitcakes behind them)
Others that are startling:
Colorado - The highest rate of coc**** use per capita (3.9% total population) (gotta get that Rocky Mountain High)
Kentucky - The most cancer deaths (227 per 100,000 people), plus Kentucky also has the highest rate of tobacco smokers GÇö 25.6%. (Well yeah, what with the flowering tobacco plant even on their state flag)
Mississippi - The highest overall rate of STDs (I don't even wanna know why)
Nebraska - The highest rate of women murdered annually. 
North Carolina - The lowest average teacher salary, according to the Institute for Southern Studies (we can tell)
North Dakota - The ugliest residents, according to a tally of pageant winners, models and health and fitness data (wtf ?)
Oregon - The highest rate of long-term homeless people (it's the mid-point for their endless back and forth from San Francisco to Seattle depending on the season)
South Dakota - The highest rate of forcible r*** 76.5 per 100,000 (It's the ugly ones from N Dakota coming down to get some)
Utah - The highest rate of online **** subscriptions, according to an article in the Journal of Economic Perspectives. (Those Mormons, I tell ya....)
Wisconsin - The highest rate of binge drinking (23.2 percent of population). (Even in David Lynch's "The Straight Story" a character says "I hear Wisconsin is a real party state.")

So, what happened to the Caldari Ice Interdiction:
"In the first week of the operation, CFC saw a lot of action and excitement in roaming into highsec and killing as many miners as they could find. "
"Unfortunately, the next week, the CFC also announced their deployment to Delve to take that space. Given the choice between null PVP and highsec griefing, the interdiction lost a lot of its steam. By the time the Delve campaign was wrapping up, the interdiction was largely forgotten by the general membership, with only Miniluv working on sustaining a rather wide spread interdiction."

What am I missing and not understanding here:
"For a player to attack another persons POCO, they must be at war with the opposing party. The devblog went on to announce that POCOs will also now receive a value on Kill Reports. An example was provided in the form of the bounty system, where Corporation A with a 100mil ISK bounty loses their POCO, valued at 100mil ISK, to Corporation B. Corporation B will then earn the bounty placed onto Corporation A."
If Corp B destroys A's POCO, should they not receive the Bounty ? To me it's like if you have a personal bounty and someone blows up your ship, that person does not get the bounty but instead inherits the bounty.
What gives, or am I seriously missing something ? People who feel safer with a gun than with guaranteed medical insurance don't yet have a fully adult concept of scary.-á -William Gibson |

Daily (erstwhile) Neal Stephenson:
(during Japan Occupation)
Guy back in the corner of the sushi restaurant was talking in short bursts, reading from a notebook. He'd speak 10-20 words then the little audience would grin, grimace or applaud. He wasnGÇÖt delivering his material like a dirty joke. He spoke precisely and expressively. F**K! He was reading poetry! Haiku.
Shaftoe sat down and looked at ruby red fish behind the bar, pointed, held up two fingers. Everyone was startled that the American had actually placed an order. For perhaps 10 seconds, between the fish and poetry, he actually felt comfortable here and forgot he was here to merely instigate a vicious racial brawl.
Shaftoe resisted impulse to look out window. He already knew exactly what he would see: Marines, shoulder to shoulder, ready to die for him.

Wowie, there may be something wrong with game mechanics today.
Of course, I was not running Log Server so I don't really have anything to back this up for CCP for reporting.
So, I'm doing my low sec PI, as I have for 3 years using Deep Space Transports, and after that long I am a Grand Master of the Cloak/MWD Trick.
After a jump, there were 3 Sansha Frigs at the gate, as they sometimes are. After initiating my align and hitting cloak, I was literally and instantly targeted and fired upon by one of the frigs, and got a suspect timer. First off, targeting me has never happened before, and also, since when do these things insta-lock on Low sec.
But the weird part is: the target lock and fired shot did not stop my cloak from completing, as it should have ! I was able to complete the manoeuvrings and continue on as if nothing had happened. And I know targeting always stops the cloaking process, but not in this case.
Just too weird. Thoughts ? People who feel safer with a gun than with guaranteed medical insurance don't yet have a fully adult concept of scary.-á -William Gibson |

Nope. Works just fine.

Two I've lived in suck, and suck hard, with Floriderp topping that list easily and hands down.
Texas is next, but at least it has the refuge of things in Houston going for it and certainly Austin, but it's still too danged hot with no autumn or spring really and surprisingly cold and dangerous winters what with frequent ice storms. Weird.

Right now it's just federal stuff that's affected. In about 7 days, we hit the Debt ceiling, then it starts hitting the state and local stuff. But some state programs like the WIC (Women Infants and Children) Program providing food and milk for poor families with children are federally funded and are indeed stopped (yes, they are literally starving babies over this bickering).
Apparently a drone fell out of the sky in Lower Manhattan today onto a busy street almost hitting a businessman and several other. NYPD was unsure what to do (it was obviously in violation of not flying private drones over population centers) and they called the FAA to get the lowdown. They got answering machines saying the agency is closed.

Nope. There are the occasional cowboy hats and boots, though. Rarely see horses but there are an obscene amount of trucks on the roads.
When I lived in Houston, there were always guys going around dressed as cowboys, but they are not cowboys. The only place you will those is actually on their farms (which there are very very few private ones of that type left) or at rodeos.
I'll vouch for those pickup trucks as well, but those are generally huge all over the South. Certainly here in Floriderp.

In a Toronto International Film Festival that had the strongest lineup in years....it was GRAVITY that really owned the festival. IGÇÖve never seen critics so enraptured over a film. Right now it is running at 97% on Rotten Tomatoes, and I think it is underrated.
GRAVITY is something new. It is not overstating the case to say it is art on a new scale. Alfonso Cuar+¦n is leveraging an experimental art-house sensibility with a blockbuster-level budget and tools.
You can read the rest of the review.
ed: "And yet, all I could imagine (before viewing) was something slow and ponderous, some meditation on existence. I must admit, my imagination proved woefully inadequate.

Here is Jester's article about Ishukone-Gate
Here is my response:
I most certainly understand the principle you are demonstrating with comparison of Bilbo's Birthday and the Hobbit customs portrayed within, but Tolkein's clear purpose in writing those was to demonstrate just how different Hobbit behavior is from Mankind.
It was satire and is only meant for humor, and the reason it works is it's charming depiction of the little Hobbit's attempts to make the make the concept work, and it usually backfires, as it does for Bilbo.
It's NOT how things are done. That's why it's funny.
Although fiction is a great thing, one should not in most cases use examples from it as applicable in the utmost to dealing with real life situations, most especially when the principles are embedded in satire.

Sorry I vanished for a couple of days.
Just read a few overnight postings the other morning that were highly inappropriate to be posted anywhere. Not sure of the viability of Internet Forums as a legitimate form of communication at all anymore. The trend towards strict pre-post moderation or just deleting the Forums is spreading like wildfire.
Just because one has a right to say something does not make it a good idea. Like that guy in the 8th grade who decided to pour gasoline on a slow moving creek bed and light it on fire to "see what happens". Yes, he had every right to strike the match...but 35 years later, I'm more than sure he is regretting it very much (spent about a year in the Burn Ward).

Just one more reason I'm probably ever only going to own a primitive flip-phone:
"Recently released footage from a Muni security camera allegedly shows that on Sept. 23, Nikhom Thephakayson pulled out a .45-caliber pistol, raised it, pointed it across the aisle, put it down and continued to pull it out multiple times, even wiping his nose with the handgun.
Absorbed in their phones, not one of the dozens of passengers reacted until he fired a bullet into the back of Justin Valdez, 20, a sophomore at San Francisco State University."

Thats just beyond odd.
Well, it was that way in America until about about 8 years ago with pork.
Anytime I ever ordered pork chops or whatever I was basically served a dry plank of meat, even in German restaurants.
It was because of trichoinosis, not one case of which had been found to have actually occurred since the Great Depression.
The pork temperature requirement was indeed lowered, thankfully.
edit: I'm vaguely recalling a 'bit of a row' at the time with accusations of the "American Beef Industry" payoffs to keep the requirement in place to de-fang the rising pork industry at the time. The meat industry is basically evil (Euro Horse Meat Scandal, etc etc).

'Pretty good review' of the guerilla-filmmaking feature "Escape From Tomorrow" shot on the fly at Disney World.
"Maybe Disney's lawyers realized it's not appropriate to try to silence a comedy just because it dares to treat Disney World and its copyrighted rides and characters as one might treat any other iconic site that families visit, such as the Washington mall or Times Square.
"To insist otherwise would have invited a legal battle that Disney would have lost once the jury realized "Escape from Tomorrow" was a political as well as an artistic statement, and that the decision to shoot on location was essential to its mood and message.
"This is a small film set in small world, but its audacity makes it important. It feels like the first salvo in an intellectual property war. The enemy was wise not to shoot back."

RT @jeffkevlar @GreatDismal now I want to know why you were typing 'bad rabbis'. [Google "rabbis Taser kidnapping"]
Rabbis plotted to kidnap husbands, force divorces, FBI says
"A criminal complaint alleges that the rabbis charged Jewish wives tens of thousands of dollars to orchestrate kidnappings and accepted $20,000 for such an operation from undercover FBI agents.
Their goal? To obtain "gets," a document that Jewish law requires a husband to present to his wife in order to be issued a divorce, the complaint says."

Actually the food wouldn't bother me at all in Japan.
The only thing I missed the whole time in San Francisco was the absolute lack of any Tex-Mex food whatsoever. None. At. All. (Chevy's doesn't count).
But after a few years even that was not really missed. Peter Marshall: Back in the 1870s, Emile Berliner invented something, and without it, I wouldn't be able to do my job. What was it? -á Paul Lynde:-á ...Makeup? Capped teeth? Loud sports jackets? |

Finished Part 1 of the Minmatar Epic Arc !
The Two Moments:
One room starts out with fighting Angel Cartel, so I was all tanked up for Kinetic/Therm. Then it switches to an Amarr Fleet. My shield EM resist on the Golem was....zero ! I was fine after I flew back to re-tank.
Another one required one warp-away and back to within 100k and then it went fine.
That's it so far. Really. But I can see why people were always saying "bring a few friends" for doing the Arcs. If I wasn't Level V in everything I would have definitely needed help.

Weird quote of the day.
From an article about the oversupply of mushrooms (for eating) in California:
What do matsutakes taste like? Raw and fresh from the ground, they are crisp and a bit peppery, with a faint hint of celery.
When cooked, Cook said, their mix of cinnamon spiciness and organic funk comes to the fore, making them, for some, an acquired taste.
" 'A provocative compromise between Red Hots and dirty socks,' " Cook said, quoting another author and mushroom devotee, David Arora.

Graygor wrote: Krix, i know if you and i sat down we could have some really interesting conversations about old movies.
Actually, I rarely watch movies made before 1968. The movie industry is pretty much historically divided into 2 separate entities by that pivotal year. So my specialty tends to be those films made in the 70s and 80s.
But of course I watch most of those older films that are well known but it really takes me effort to get up the gumption to actually watch them, but almost every single time it's been astonishing.
I seriously dreaded watching the Gregory Peck/Audrey Hepburn fluff-piece "Roman Holiday". But it was hysterical ! All of these latter day Rom-Com writers could learn lessons from it on how that kind of thing is done.
And "Sunset Boulevard" is just a delight of a freak-show. A David Lynch film before there was a David Lynch. It's all there.
And "Lawrence of Arabia". Just wow. Lean's "Dr. Zhivago" though is better appreciated when one is older for some reason. Funny how that works.

Excellent short, new article about Oscar Wilde's surreal lecture tour of America, winding up in San Francisco.
"For his Monday night lecture, Wilde appeared in a black velvet suit with knee breeches, a profusion of lace and white kid gloves. According to a Chronicle reporter, as he walked into the stage, a well-known society lady exclaimed loudly: "Oh, my soul! What a dress!""
ed: it's too bad journalists don't write like this nowadays:
"The most scathing review - indeed, possibly one of the nastiest reviews ever written - came from Ambrose "Bitter" Bierce, who wrote, "That sovereign of insufferables, Oscar Wilde, has ensued with his opulence of twaddle and his paucity of sense. He has mounted his hind-legs and blown crass vapidities through the bowel of his neck. ... There was never an impostor so hateful, a blockhead so stupid, a crank so variously and offensively daft."

The thing is, especially in NYC, those who own these properties don't actually live there but for maybe 2 weeks out of the year. Moby himself spoke at length about the 3 huge lofts across the street from him that were maintained but actually only occupied very rarely.
They don't really give a crap about NYC itself, and they are there to 'stay' by keeping these investments going for years and years.
It's sad really. And a lot of these folks own those same properties in London and San Francisco. It's just the latest form of economic and cultural exploitation by the idle rich.
(They certainly don't support the NYC arts at all. The New York City Opera has folded and declared bankruptcy, but that's a whole other almost hard-to-believe conversation.)

Welp, I certainly thought it would be sanitized for the further Deification of Mr. Tom Hanks:
"Phillips wasnGÇÖt the big leader like he is in the movie,' says one crew member, who, for legal reasons, spoke with The Post anonymously. He worked very closely with Phillips on the Maersk Alabama and was alarmed by his behavior from the beginning.
"Phillips, he says, had a bad reputation for at least 12 years prior, known as a sullen and self-righteous captain.
"'No one wants to sail with him,' he says. After the hijacking, 11 crew members have sued Maersk Line and the Waterman Steamship Corp. for almost $50 million, alleging 'willful, wanton and conscious disregard for their safety.' Phillips is a witness for the defense.'The crew had begged Captain Phillips not to go so close to the Somali coast,' said Deborah Waters, the attorney who brought the claim. 'He told them he wouldnGÇÖt let pirates scare him or force him to sail away from the coast.'"
Crew members: GÇÿCaptain PhillipsGÇÖ is one big lie

d'awwwwww ! the otters are just so cuuuuuute.
Reminds me of a particular day (1997) in San Fran when after work, the Muni subway underneath MArket Street broke down and everyone was forced up to the street to catch buses.
Meanwhile............work had started the day before on some roadwork on Market Street at it's head (right after the spot where the buses would turn around) that involved digging a hole in the street one lane wide and about 12 feet deep.
A bus just starting it's route (we were waiting on it to go the 2 blocks so we could board) got to that hole and just drove straight down into it. Blocking the other lane. Which meant all lanes were blocked.
No underground. No surface transportation........literally everyone had to walk home from work that day, even if it meant across town.

It's not that kind of class distinction - the only requirement for getting into First Class is paying more, and what it gets you is better seats and that sort of thing. It's still kind of ****** to have the distinction (First Class seats are 1 per side instead of 2, so they could fit twice as many standard seats in the same space), but it's not related to social class or anything like that.
Oh, I know. I was just trying for some lame humor. But indeed our public transportation is one-size-fits-all. In fact I've always thought San Fran's MUNI buses were only there to be an experiment in just how many people daily can possibly be crammed onto as few running buses as possible.

Our own story of the child who hopped the plane to Las Vegas? The father went on the news with hoodie pulled tight so you could not see his face blubbering about "how could the airport allow his son to do this?". AND the media took his side!!
Oh, they'll come around. They would have to in fact. You are responsible for your child's school loans until they are age 35, why not be responsible for their crimes too ? Sounds fair to me.
That particular dude has no real grasp of reality, tbh. No wonder the child behaves as such with such non-parenting. In a case like this, I say remove the child and put him in a better home.

What killed rap (IMHO) is: idiots trying to imitate Public Enemy.
Their "Fear of a Black Planet" was an absolutely stunning achievement. Unfortunately it was adopted as a near political rallying cry, and an misinterpreted as an excuse for militant behavior. So imitation immediately started but without any of the wit, intelligence, or subtlety executed by Flavor Flav and crew.
They did their job too well, but they are blameless. It's the regular fans who twisted things around. "Who thinks it's normal to kneel down to a naked man who's nailed to a cross? It's like a bad leather bar." -- John Waters |

Also, offensive is alright as long as it's not denigrating to any particular individual or group.

Revoke John Ary's Film Critic Credentials immediately !
John Carpenter's "Dark Star" is not a horror film.
It is a science fiction comedy writ large.
This seems to be more than a mistake, and more like reviewing a still unseen movie.
edit: Reminds me of the release of "Foucault's Pendulum" the novel by Umberto Eco in 1988 (you may remember his one filmed work "The Name of the Rose") that every critic everywhere reviewed, claiming it was a mystery in which they yuse an Apple computer to solve the mystery.
As I wended my way through the really seriously difficult 900+ pages of text, believe me, the computer aspect is utterly dropped and forgotten after about page 125. Has nothing to do with the story. At all.
And I caught out every single critic...not a single one actually read the book. None of them. Not Time, not Nwsweek, not the NY Times. They all lied. "Who thinks it's normal to kneel down to a naked man who's nailed to a cross? It's like a bad leather bar." -- John Waters |

So speaking of KISS a few pages back I have an interesting story. So Gene Simmons still has quite a bit of family in Israel from his brothers and sisters who're still there.
Shortly after i passed through Mahal into the proper IDF and entered officer school, I met Gene Simmons great nephew. Dont remember how we broached the subject back in cadet school, and i havent seen him since we were assigned to our specific units. I was sent to the north and he went off to centre command. Only thing he has in common with his famous relative is... you guessed it... his tongue. He used to lick ping pong balls out of glasses for a bet. He did not seem to have Gene's talent with the ladies though.
Hell of a nice guy. Just a shame Gene is so distant from his family, so i couldnt get any autographed stuff.
Still small world eh?
WOW ! Fascinating to hear about that genetic 'attribute'.
My only real brush with fame that way was dating Matt LeBlanc's uncle for awhile. And no, I had no idea till I saw the family reunion photo on the mantle.
We stayed friends.

From "JFK" to : Oliver Stone Confirms "MLK" Film
Great. Another film that will not be seen really, will still get JAmie Foxx another Oscar, but will prompt years of bad dialogue and ideas from right wingnuts.

"Home Economics" teachers in the 1950's really really tried to save us from our artificial instant food nightmare.
"The convenience food industry that's so powerful and entrenched today was just taking root in the 1950s.
"And as it began to aggressively market its products to a growing US middle class, it faced "one real obstacle," Moss writes: the "army of school teachers and federal outreach workers who insisted on promoting home-cooked meals, prepared the old fashioned way.""
"....the term "home economics," officially adopted at a conference "for the betterment of the home" in 1899, just in time for the dawn of a scientifically minded century. Though it may now seem impossible, the discipline was originally rooted in progressive and even feminist thinking. The idea was to bring scientific rigor into the home, and to professionalize womenGÇÖs domestic work, bringing dignity and efficiency to both."
Why Home Economics Should Be Mandatory "Who thinks it's normal to kneel down to a naked man who's nailed to a cross? It's like a bad leather bar." -- John Waters |

Be mindful that it is not a n action film...at all in any way.
Best description I can find: "The film chronicles the origins and meaning of life by way of a middle-aged man's childhood memories of his family living in 1950s Texas, against the narrative backdrop of the origins of the universe, and the inception and end of life on Earth."
I highly suggest watching one of Terrence Malick's more straightfoward narratives first, like "Days of Heaven" or "The New World" (the John Smith/Pocahontas film with Collin Farrell) or "The Thin Red Line" so that his unique style isn't a major distraction for something that is already unusual enough in concept.
If you've seen any of those you know it's all quick cut shots and lots and lots of narration seemingly connected but sometimes not. It's just his way of things. "Who thinks it's normal to kneel down to a naked man who's nailed to a cross? It's like a bad leather bar." -- John Waters |

Apparently in last year's Sight & Sound "once every decade" poll of every professional movie critic on Earth (it made the news this decade for Hitchcock's "Vertigo" usurping the top spot held for decades by Welles' "Citizen Kane") and only 3 films from the year 2000 onward made the list:
Wong Kar Wei's "In The Mood for Love" (unseen by me)
Terrence Malick's "The Tree of Life"
David Lynch's "Mulholland Dr." (I would chose "INLAND EMPIRE" of course. Or both actually. I find them to be linked.) "Who thinks it's normal to kneel down to a naked man who's nailed to a cross? It's like a bad leather bar." -- John Waters |

Yeah, I've only ever seen it in films from the 50s and 60s, and I think they did it a few times on the original "Mickey Mouse Club" and other kid shows.
All I can figure is that after the culture utterly changed in the mid-60s, it was just seen as too old-fashioned.
Nowadays, there are probably too many 'liability concerns' to have such an event.

Oh well. It's gonna be awhile till our TV station cycles around to showing "The Love Boat" Andy Warhol episode as it is a later one from 1985, and they are still doing 1978.
But I did find out the ep is called "Picture from the Past" and it stars both Marion Ross and Tom Bosley (of "Happy Days"), and....."wherein a Midwestern wife fears Andy Warhol will reveal to her husband her secret past as a Warhol Factory Superstar named Marina del Rey." Sounds hilarious actually. "Who thinks it's normal to kneel down to a naked man who's nailed to a cross? It's like a bad leather bar." -- John Waters |

From: XXXXXXXXXXXXX To: Krixtal Icefluxor
Read your sig on the forums and just wanted to say, John Waters has never known that man nailed to the cross 2k years ago.
I accepted Christ a long time ago and it's never been like a bad leather bar for me. Nothing but the awesome love of God thru Jesus is expressed thru the cross to you and me. You are free to reject that love, but you are still loved by Him. He is the living God and You can know Him.
I didn't send this because I was offended by your sig. I wasn't.
Respectfully, XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

It's just a joke. And not made by me.
I was raised within the Baptist Church with a deacon for a father, and his dad was a founder of the American Baptist Association in Little Rock, Arkansas.
So I am already quite well aware of things.
And aware enough to believe that it's all nonsense. And absolutely.
Sorry to dissapoint, but when humans claim with absolutely no proof that an imaginary being can even offer me something that can possibly be even accepted or rejected, I can only think they have a screw loose.
Sorry, that's just the way it is.

Re: Re: John Waters From: Major Xadi Sent: 2013.10.21 14:18 To: Krixtal Icefluxor,
You believe God is imaginary because you have never met Him? Or been in His Presence? Or heard Him speak to you? Others have. I have. Would you say my parents don't exist because you've never met them? I'm here so they must exist. Life is on Earth. Inanimate matter cannot animate and become life by itself. Scientists have never observed this happen and cannot, even with the best equipped labs, produce it. Therefore, God is. And deep down you know this. You only want Him to be imaginary because He doesn't agree with your lifestyle. But rebellion against Him is common to us all. He still loves you. You can know Him. Jesus will respond to you and prove He is. Respectfully, Major Xadi -------------- "Who thinks it's normal to kneel down to a naked man who's nailed to a cross?

I get both sides of this story as I've heard it all --been part of it all-- before. Best I can say is, kudos to the guy to have the stones to say something for his beliefs when he probably expected open persecution. Kudos to you for holding to your own beliefs.
That said, I'd be careful of carrying this out on the forums, in OOPE, where politics and religion are against the rules for posting. I say this not to "shut you up" or anything, but because I'd hate to see you get banned over what some guy said about a sig.
Not trying to offend anyone, pick sides, or whatever. Just voicing my concerns.
Carry on.
Thanks for the sentiment and I understand.
But you are making the exact same mistake here with: "Kudos to you for holding to your own beliefs. "
My sexuality has absolutely nothing to do with any belief or credo. It's just what it is as it is.
Religion, however, does indeed revolve around beliefs and choices. In fact, there are too many religions to choose from, all declaring themselves as correct. To participate, one has to pick one.

I do not agree with this new encroaching policy of companies making their employee salaries open information within the company. It will spur too many questions regarding similar 'rank' but within different departments (the pay for a good HR rep, and a lawyer over in Legal, say),
But it would indeed expose the lower pay for women that's for sure.
They are taking it off the (extremely naive) Swedish policy of tax returns as Public Information, thus salaries by default (yes, EVERYBODY) can find out how much you make.
That may work there in a civilized country, but in a place like America with an enthusiastically armed populace, this is all just an open shopping list for criminals. "Who thinks it's normal to kneel down to a naked man who's nailed to a cross? It's like a bad leather bar." -- John Waters |

I'm still laughing about the Rock Shoving Scout Leader having himself declared permanently disabled and drawing SS disability for 4 years and suing the poor family who 'caused' the accident.
Not a good idea to film yourself pushing over a 3-ton boulder and hopping literally over other rocks under those conditions. It reminds me of when Mr. Brady claps his hands in the Courtroom and the "broken neck" accuser of him designing a faulty stairway, turns his head sharply around to look at the sound.

I've gotta lay down for a bit after this one...........
So.......the past THREE nights in a row, after midnight, my phone is shut off, but each night Sprint Sales has left 4 and 5 messages in my voicemail, concerning apparently someone who is trying to order new service, and they keep disconnecting, so the sales rep is using this new customer's callback number.
Welp, they gave them my number instead apparently by accident or the clerk copied it down wrong.
The thing that bothered me after this third night (and apparently the third night in a row this customer had called them for new service) they still had not apparently investigated the idea that there was something in error with the callback number. STUPIDITY !!!! Talk about a training issue !
Sp, I finally call Sprint to tell them what's going on, and the first call took me 10 minutes until the guy finally grasped the concept of what I was trying to explain. So.......he 'forwards me to Customer Care', and the lady answers the phone...........and we are promptly disconnected !!! (Just like with whoever the poor guy is trying to establish new service).
So, I had to call back and spend 10 minutes re-explaining to a baffled rep this long assed story about how they are dialing back the wrong number utterly (I guess I'm the first time they heard of a wrong number or something).
So after much ado, it looks like I hopefully will not be receiving anymore midnight calls.
Dealing with folks coming out of our failure of an educational system is just at the point of being downright irritating.

This has actually become a larger issue than previously, thought and is apparently state-wide. It seems to have something to do with how coaches are hired and distributed around the state, possibly involving a payola type scheme.
Obviously the quality of the coaches varies widely. Too widely.
One of the smaller colleges there had a team actually stopped playing last week in the middle of a game that got up to 65-0 (It's kinda hard to score above 40 in American Football). The whole thing is being investigated.
Having gone to high school all 4 years in Texas, I will vouch that the folks in that state are way way too obsessed by that sport, to a seriously unhealthy degree. Everything always seemed to revolve around the team school-wide, and because I was in Band, we were sucked right along into it all as if we were some kind of indentured entertainment...with no pay.

Here's what we do know:
Yes, pre-production has been furiously underway for at least a year.
All 3 films will be shot together.
Colonel Quaritch obviously returns somehow.
Sigourney Weaver is returning somehow.
2nd movie introduces Pandora's oceans.
3rd movie uses the solar system itself.
4th film probably just continues with that.
Schwarzenegger may be involved in some capacity (probably as apology to Cameron for letting his political career interfere with any hope for "True Lies 2")
Zoe Saldana is in it.
The only ominous note of silence has been the complete lack of Sam Worthington news (I'm evilly wringing my hands together. The guy is a no-talent waste). "Who thinks it's normal to kneel down to a naked man who's nailed to a cross? It's like a bad leather bar." -- John Waters |

Green Kimberlite is a byproduct of volcanic activity and is highly likely to contain diamonds. We just don't associate Arkansas with volcanoes.

Pink Floyd "Another brick in the wall"
Oh I understand (and some in the tweeted suggestions I used are not really lame), but it has to sustain a 90 minute documentary.
Should be a song with historical resonance that has been used for at least a couple of decades under many different social contexts. "All Along the Watchtower" may work, starting as a folk inspired faux ballad by Bob Dylan and eventually winding up as a showcase for Hendrix under an utterly different set of social conditions.
There is a real story behind the Star Spangled Banner and it's particular choice. The difficulty in even attempting to sing it. It's despicable original drinking of alcohol lyrics that were just simply changed. The massive push to change to "America the Beautiful" in the 1980s, and the fervent negation of that by the overly patriotic Reaganites declaring it the "sacred song of our Founding Fathers" and other such lies.
It was not even adopted as Anthem until 1931.
There's a 90 minute story in there indeed. Man is a Religious Animal. He is the only Religious Animal. He is the only animal that has the True ReligionGÇöseveral of them. He is the only animal that loves his neighbor as himself, and cuts his throat if his theology isnGÇÖt straight. --Mark Twain |

Apparently the top 2 so far in that song suggestion thing are:
"Love Will Tear Us Apart" + "There Is a Light that Never Goes Out"
Issues for universality:
Outside of Europe, most folks have not heard of Joy Division and never ever will. They just were not a thing here in America except for small groups of desperate geeks at the time.
They know who the Smiths are, but a lot of the power of their songs deriving from their lyrics....which are pretty much just mumbled by Morrissey, so all song meaning is utterly lost on us (I just had to find to lyrics to read along with Morrisseys mumblig. It's pretty bad tbh, that mumbling.)
But the Director comes up with his own excellent suggestion and a song ppeople do know: "If I had to make a documentary abt one song, my pick (today) would be "Heroes". The Bowie/Eno dynamic, 1977 Berlin, Hansa."
Yes, there is a 90 minute story there that is 'universally known'. Man is a Religious Animal. He is the only Religious Animal. He is the only animal that has the True ReligionGÇöseveral of them.

Go ahead and call me cold and cruel-hearted if you like, but I see this as a much need Culling of the Stupidity Herd:
Friends question police shooting of boy with fake rifle
"Andy Lopez died at the scene of the Tuesday afternoon shooting near Moorland and West Robles avenues, just west of Highway 101, after he was spotted by deputies who were on patrol in the area. Sheriff's officials said the deputies killed the boy after ordering him to drop the rifle, which resembles an AK-47 assault weapon.
Friends and family members of Lopez said Wednesday that the replica rifle belonged to a friend, and that the boy liked to join others in playing games with low-powered air guns that shoot pellets. They said the deputies should have recognized that they were confronting a teenager - and that the gun he was carrying wasn't real."
I call BullCrap ! Kid did not drop the gun, and how exactly does one tell from 40 feet away in a possibly dangerous circumstance that it's not real ? How ? Give us an answer you bleeding hearts !!!!!
"There's a difference between a cold-hearted killer walking down the street with a gun than a little kid walking down the street with a BB gun. There's something wrong.""
And 2 days in a row now we have two dead middle school teachers on opposite sides of the country dead from being shot by two different innocuous, Honor Student, non-bullied, non-depressed kids. Oh boy................you just cannot know for sure anymore. At all. Man is a Religious Animal. He is the only Religious Animal. He is the only animal that has the True ReligionGÇöseveral of them.

Instead of this behavior being part of a scheduled hour long show one can choose to inflict on oneself by choice, now these behaviors are delivered as an unexpected, unwanted, ugly surprise, like Miley Cyrus' spontaneous Twerking on a show for pre-teens.

I just don't get the drama around the casting for film of "50 Shades if Grey" . Actually, I don't get the appeal of the book at all.
The writing is terribad:
I finally found some sample text:
" " GÇÿWhy donGÇÖt you like to be touched?GÇÖ I whisper, staring up into soft gray eyes. GÇÿBecause IGÇÖm fifty shades of f**ked up, Anastasia.GÇÖ GÇ¥
" GÇÿThe woman who brought me into this world was a crack *****, Anastasia GǪGÇÖ I slip into a dazed and exhausted sleep, dreaming of a four-year-old gray-eyed boy in a dark, scary, miserable place.GÇÖ GÇ¥
AND:
GǣSuddenly, he sits up and tugs my panties off and throws them on the floor. Pulling off his boxer briefs, his erection springs free. Holy cow! GǪ He kneels up and pulls a condom onto his considerable length. Oh no GǪ Will it? How?Gǥ
Fifty Shades of Awful indeed.

"It isnGÇÖt beyond reason to assume that he was aware of his performance as an actor, even when it seemed preposterous.

The film's makers have said nothing about expanding upon the biting social satire in the original. They are pretty much just making a PG-13 Explosion Film.

I'm actually about one more film away from giving up on Ridley Scott. (Kingdom of Heaven, Robin Hood, Prometheus, and now this.......)
"The Counselor" is a movie with sex on the brain, but nowhere else.
"Javier Bardem, who plays a flamboyantly dressed drug king, is stuck with several lengthy monologues about the mysteries of women that should have been severely cut or dropped entirely.
"As his self-styled intellectual mistress, Cameron Diaz pouts and struts around looking sultry, sometimes smiling to show off a gold tooth. When she talks about her bloodlust and Bardem tells her that she sounds cold, Diaz replies, "Truth has no temperature." 
""The Counselor" slides into full-on unintentional hilarity when Diaz goes to church and tries to vamp a priest in the confessional. "I think that women might make up sexy things to tell you just to make you crazy," she purrs. "Don't you think that's possible?"
"The camp-o-meter rises to a "Showgirls" level in the scene where Bardem tells Fassbender about the time that Diaz had sex with his Ferrari, which is accompanied by a flashback of Diaz (or her stunt double) doing a split on the car window and humping it while Bardem sits stunned in his seat."

Customers Praise Server's Excellent Service, But Refuse to Tip a 'F**'
"Thank you for your service, it was excellent. That being said, we cannot in good conscience tip you, for your homosexual lifestyle is an affront to GOD. Qu**rs do not share in the wealth of GOD, and you will not share in ours. We hope you will see the tip your f*g choices made you lose out on, and plan accordingly. It is never too late for GOD'S love, but none shall be spared for f*gs. May GOD have mercy on you."

I don't mind slow films, but for me it was too boring, slow, and pretentiously and unnecessarily complex, just as I expected from a film about (finally) The Crusades. It's too complex a subject for a film and sadly the details about them are not really taught at all in schools anymore, and Ridley did not do a good job of guiding me through it at all.

Yes, King Baldric and Saladin did have a semi cordial relationship, but there was brutality on both sides and it shouldnt all have been leveled at the Templars.
That hugely complex novel by Umberto Eco "Foucault's Pendulum" had hundreds of pages about all of it, and I still just could not grasp it enough to my liking. It's too vast and very specific at the same time. Probably why they don't really make films about some things like the Crimean War.

The way it reads and the actual results are quite different. It takes a lot longer to get where you are going, even in a Battlecruiser. You are "in warp" for longer. Anything warping 6 au and above are indeed faster to get there. Cruisers and above are indeed slower to arrive at stop.

Yeah, and kinda weird to want rights to something that has been covered for a century by Hollywood already, from "Parenthood" and "Father of the Bride" and even parodies like "Bedtime for Bonzo".
I guess they want to 'own' the words like the Boy Scouts of America winning a suit that allows no organization to ever use "Scout" in their name in any way shape or form.

And just so you know, the mass media here from CNN on down the line are pretty much treating it all as a side story and it's dead in the water here. Sometimes propaganda is revealed by the absence of something. In this case they do want Americans to think nothing is going on, and the White House is only saying that friends have always spied on one another. (Yes, but never before their personal phone calls.

Shock ! I actually knew this Guy !!!!!!!!!!!!  
And not kidding.
He went by the name of "Thoth" and was an extremely well known street performance artist in San Francisco, especially in the Castro, and some of the crowded tourist spots like Fisherman's Wharf and Union Square. He was one of those first "San Francisco Things" when I moved there.
My parents were amazed at seeing him somewhere at least once across 4 or 5 visits to see me, He was ubiquitous and quite the fixture. he was not that odd, and would stop and talk to people and all that.
At some point, a couple of documentary filmmakers decided to do his story, and lo and behold if the next year that documentary short, called "Thoth" got nominated for the Oscar.
Then imagine my astonishment when it actually won the Oscar !!!! And he was there, and got up on the stage to accept the statue with the filmmakers !!
I don't think my jaw ever hit the floor so hard before or since.

"Snowden's a kind of a sign that the system is working, which doesn't do him any favours, but it makes me hopeful that people won't be able to keep such programmes absolutely secret indefinitely,"
"The only thing that has surprised me is people who claim that they are surprised,"
"Every thriller, book and movie that has come out in the last quarter of a century has featured people in an underground CIA or NSA bunker doing exactly this kind of surveillance and using it to catch bad guys or good guys.
"When the Boston Marathon bombings happened a few months ago people claimed to be furious that the [bombers] hadn't been detected and prevented from carrying out their schemes.
"So, there seemed to be a public will demanding exactly the kind of surveillance measures that Snowden was leaking. And to sort of make those kinds of complaints and then turn around a few months later and claim to be shocked that such efforts are going on seems to be a bit fishy."

So James Taylor is now making the news for a small error in singing the "Star-Spangled Banner", in which he 'accidentally' started singing "America the Beautiful" then quickly changes, in a miraculous 'save' to the proper Anthem.
That was not a 'save' or an 'accident'.
That was so obviously his deliberate jab at those who so ferociously fight changing our Anthem to a better song (by a long shot) because it's "the Song of our Founding Fathers". It was adopted in 1931.

Why oh why for the past 20 years that we have learned all about our encroachment upon the wildlands and all that, do people think it's still some kind of novelty and post videos of "A Bear Goes on a Neighborhood Romp" and "A Koala Goes into a Bar" ??
It's overdone to the point of not being funny, interesting, or informative in any way shape or form. It's just not unusual enough anymore. Has not been for a few years.
And the Today show yesterday made me sit through 20 seconds of footage no less than 5 times yesterday of an alligator hanging around outside the door of a WalMart in the middle of the night. In Florida.
Yes. An alligator. Just lurking there. Unmoving.
And then it slowly saunters away. Just as expected.
5 times they show this footage................

"I know this because my girlfriend and I went on a long trip that year and no matter what state we were in, anytime we stopped the car, wherever we looked, we saw Jar-Jar looking back at us, in life-size cardboard cutout form, a friendly smile on his face gesturing with outstreched flipper-paw toward a conviniently located display case of Pepsi Products as if to say "Wah-na so-da ?"

Whatever was to become a giraffe eventually (giraffes did not start out as giraffes per se), did not have that much of an unusually long neck.

That Christian/Creationist article assumes giraffes just "happened" to pop into existence out of nowhere (which is what they believe for all creatures, not just giraffes), and that some guy named them absolutely 'giraffes' from day one.

Oh, my freakin' God, America. Farewell and we hardly knew ye........
Castro Valley care home patients abandoned
"Fourteen sick and elderly patients were abandoned at a Castro Valley assisted living facility when the staff apparently walked out Thursday after the state ordered the home closed, Alameda County sheriff's deputies said."
"The staff members who stayed, including a cook, a janitor and what is believed to be a single caretaker, "stayed because they felt bad for the patients," Nelson said. "They weren't getting paid or anything."
""Right now we have a lot more questions than answers," Nelson said. "There's a question of what happens when the state closes a home, whether they send anyone in afterward to see what happened.""
Imagine if that were your parents in there. "He has mounted his hind-legs, and blown crass vapidities through the bowel of his neck."-á - Ambrose Bierce on Oscar Wilde's Lecture in San Francisco 1882 |

For those who are not Americans:
No, the Helthcare website debacle is not "Obama's fault" as the Republicans are shouting so loudly of course.
The website was constructed with the capabilities of supporting what was thought to be around 11 states or so that would not be participating in the program in full. Those states that are participating, run their own operations and websites and none of those states are having any issues at all.
However, the Repubs and their Mad Hatter Tea Party goons successfully lobbied this past spring in getting 36 states to reject the program utterly, which means this site that was expected to handle the population of 11 states, suddenly had to handle the burden of 36, including huge-assed Texas.
They are determined to wreck this country and rebuild it 'their way'.

It was demolished to make room for a parking lot.

Yeah. Just the kind of film not made anymore.
Every single line of dialogue in the films is exaggerated, and almost hard to believe.
In one, this butch lesbian character goes to John Hopkins Med Center for a sex change, and as the doctor starts explaining the months of preparation and evaluations, she whips out a gun and cocks the trigger against his skull proclaiming "Shut up dang it !

Quite similar to my 'email friend' from RvB last week in game, most indeed. 
When a group of people who believe something collectively discover that the particular world they want to live in is vanishing, they panic and become impulsive and they become loud. This is true whether it's religious groups, animal rights groups, or gay rights groups.....anything. The problem for me is that now that it has been discovered that whatever it is in our brains that makes us desire comfort from religion affects the same brain processing areas as the desire for recreational drugs, I see these religious proselyizers as much akin to drug dealers. but instead of money, I guess they see it as a way of buying a ticket to heaven or something.

Ridley Scott said a few really interesting things in a NYTimes interview today:
You werenGÇÖt the first choice as director for your breakout film, GÇ£Alien,GÇ¥ in 1979. How did you get the job?
I was fifth in line. I think just before me they gave Bob Altman a read. I love Bob AltmanGÇÖs work right through to GÇ£Gosford Park,GÇ¥ but IGÇÖm thinking: GÇ£AlienGÇ¥? He wouldnGÇÖt have any interest in that. But I was reading it, and half my brain switched into art direction. The one big thing you have to get right is the monster. Otherwise itGÇÖs a guy in a rubber suit.
Were you interested in doing the sequel? IGÇÖd have done GÇ£AliensGÇ¥ if theyGÇÖd offered it to me.
You were passed over? Yeah. Well, welcome to Hollywood.
What were the complaints about the film?
The first film had absolutely no fat. It was all lean. People said the characters werenGÇÖt developed enough. I said, GÇ£What do you need to know when youGÇÖve got an alien charging down the hall after you?GÇ¥ Get real. YouGÇÖve got this monster thatGÇÖs gonna rip your head off in 20 minutes.
Recently Steven Spielberg said Hollywood is too addicted to blockbusters GÇö that this model is not sustainable. Do you agree? I do. People are going into these things inexperienced. TheyGÇÖll do a little movie, and suddenly their next movie is going to cost $160 million, and theyGÇÖve barely even talked to an actor. I may sound like an old fart, but IGÇÖm not. The studio system canGÇÖt take five, six disasters in a year.
Your next film, GÇ£Exodus,GÇ¥ is a massive Moses-wandering-through-the-desert epic, which seems ambitious... IGÇÖve got it fairly well plotted out. IGÇÖm an atheist, which is actually good, because IGÇÖve got to convince myself the story works.

5 Guys Burgers and Fries is the best apparently, but even they are national now. I believe the only bad food place based here in Florida is Hooter's. The original location is about 2 miles away from me.
In-N-Out in Cali is THE BEST ! Only one in SF is at Fisherman's wharf so you can imagine the crowds.

Another Idiotic Gem (so short I'm pasting the whole story):
Texan survives being hit by lightning twice
SAINT JO, Texas (AP) GÇö An off-road racing enthusiast has survived being struck by lightning twice during the same storm in North Texas.
Casey Wagner said Sunday that doctors told him a tingling feeling would last for about a week.
KTVT-TV (http://cbsloc.al/1g5mf18 ) reports Wagner was at an off-road competition in Saint Jo, 85 miles northwest of Dallas, when storms arrived.
The 31-year-old Wagner was under a tree when he was hit by lightning. He dropped to his knees then he was struck again. Wagner says he saw sparks during the strikes.
A nurse who happened to be nearby cared for Wagner until he was taken to a hospital, where he was treated and released.
Wagner says he believes God kept him alive GÇö and he plans to start going to church more.

So I'm reading this actually terrific review of Neil Gaiman's "American Gods" at Mittani .com and I come to the eye-stopping sentence: Thus, he is not a relatable protagonist at first.
arghhh. That WORD. Sounds like a tween talking about her father on FaceBook or something.......
How about: He is a protagonist who is difficult to identify with at first.

He is also (for real) investing in development of a luxury airship in about 15 years or so. Talked about it with Branson a bit too apparently. But Branson's is for commercial travel. Graygor's is more of a luxury QE2 cruise. Fine materials and all that.

How about: He is a protagonist who is difficult to identify with at first.
THAT sounds like one knows what one is talking about. And makes one less skeptical of the critical abilities on display. American Gods has to be my all-time favourite book; it's one of the few that can actually make me feel angry or happy towards its characters. +1 for good taste :D

Genius, yes, but short-lived career, not really any known extraneous stories at all to tell outside of his films and SNL, and a horrifying and sudden tragic end that meant nothing, much less anything profound to wrap up a film about it.

Hey, Today Show. Do your research. This morning they ran a story on that found blooper reel footage from Star Wars that broke yesterday. They got all mysterious claiming nobody knows where it came from and all that and truly seemed mystified.
The answer is actually quite well known, and here is what Aint It Cool had to say:
The story is that a laserdisc popped up on eBay with a ton of raw footage from Return of the Jedi along with some from A New Hope. The dailies were stored on this format during the making of the movie and somehow it got out into the world and the person who shelled out the big bucks for this rarity is doing geekkind a service by posting up the material via Facebook.

A week ago my roommates parents came to visit and they brought with the the usual stuff like coffee, swiss roll etc. Yesterday when i went to fix myself some supper, i found two sliced peaces of that roll put on a small plate wrapped in plastic under dozen or so plastic bags (Not in the bags, under the bag pile) and you might guess that they were moldy.. I needed to properly dispose the swiss roll, so i would need a proper equipment and mostly motivation, which i did not have. So naturally it was the problem of future me. Later i went to bed and i was thinking about the mold and how it works, after awhile of pondering i was left with only one question. If peace #1 is moldy, does it accelerate molding of peace #2 that is not moldy? I searched google and fond no answers. Ether engrish is bad, i just don't know how to interwebs or my ways of explaining stuff is worse than twilight is a movie.
I would imagine the nols spores from #1 are indeed being released into the air and attaching to anything in the immediate vicinity, most indeed.

I had a feeling this would happen:
"Ender's Game, like Orson Scott Card's 1985 novel upon which it's based, is a story about a boy forced to become a weapon and the old man operating the forge.
"If only adapter-director Gavin Hood's movie had been tempered with craft and care and wasn't such a blunt instrument, one that seems designed as a delivery system for CGI derring-do, instead of the heartbreaker it should be.
"The special effects are fine, but Ender's Game has the bad luck to be coming on the heels of Gravity. In the book, the scenes of combat in the Battle Room -- featuring as many as 30 kids streaking through zero-gravity, executing formations and maneuvers on the fly -- seemed to be unfilmable.
"While Hood and his CG wizards do a more than decent job, anyone whoGÇÖs seen Alfonso Cuaron's wizardry will have seen it done far, far better."

Uh-oh. "I have a bad feeling about this" "I sense a disturbance in The Force"
Star Wars: Disney CEO Bob Iger's Firm 2015 Date Leaves 'SW: Episode VII' Team Scrambling
and
"A lot of us have been skeptical that J.J. Abrams was going to meet a Summer 2015 release date, as production has continued to be delayed and is now scheduled to begin next Spring. That is obviously a short window for a film that is going to require a ton of post-production visual effects work.
"Reportedly though producer Kathleen Kennedy went to Disney CEO, Bob Iger and asked for a release date delay to 2016. He denied her request because they have a big plan with a lot of money involved and moving EPISODE VIIGÇÖs release date would screw it all up."
"We donGÇÖt want EPISODE VII to be anywhere near the quality of the first two Prequel films but Iger has other priorities as CEO. He has to answer to investors and obviously the success of the Prequel Trilogy means that quality doesnGÇÖt necessarily matter in order for STAR WARS films to be extremely profitable."
I look at it this way. Disney bought the Muppets franchise over 20 years ago and have not really done anything of interest with them, not even the two recent films(2nd one is out soon). They have a habit of doing this historically.
If the SW movies turn out well at this point, I'll just be pleasantly surprised, but my enthusiasm has dropped considerably until I hear something further.

Rain6637 wrote:britfriends: what does the phrase "morning, lemon!" specifically, what is a lemon?
"lemon" in slang means : a person or thing considered to be useless or defective
The reason "lemon" has a negative connotation could possibly be because:
worthless thing," 1909, Amer.Eng. slang; from lemon (1), perhaps via criminal slang sense of "a person who is a loser, a simpleton," which is perhaps from the notion of someone a sharper can "suck the juice out of." A pool hall hustle was called a lemon game (1908); while to hand someone a lemon was British slang (1906) for "to pass off a sub-standard article as a good one." Or it simply may be a metaphor for something which "leaves a bad taste in one's mouth."

This Sunday on FOX Simpson's tribute to Marcia Wallace:
"The network will re-air the 16th episode of the showGÇÖs third season, 'Bart the Lover,' which offered a sympathetic take on BartGÇÖs cynical, lonely teacher. In the episode, Bart discovers Krabappel has posted a personal ad, so he begins writing her bogus love letters. After setting her up on a fake date, he spies her sitting by herself in the restaurant.
"When sheGÇÖs still there hours later, heGÇÖs no longer amused by his prank and sets about trying to make things right. The episode won Marcia Wallace an Emmy Award in 1992. 'Bart the Lover' will air as the 7:30 p.m. lead-in to an all-new Simpsons, titled GÇ£4 Regrettings and a Funeral.GÇ¥ The new episode will then conclude with a tribute card from the producers honoring Wallace. Also, the episode opens with an epic-length couch-gag spoof of 'The Hobbit.'"

Reading a review of the new documentary film about Slavoj Zizek, a Cultural Theorist and this jumped out as something to think about for awhile:
"For many viewers, no doubt the most startling and provocative part of Zizek's journey comes when he follows Freud down the rabbit hole of deep Western belief, where he identifies Judaism with "anxiety" and Christianity with "love."
"And then, using Kazantzakis and Scorsese's Resurrection-less "The Last Temptation of Christ" as his exemplary text, he says, "The only real way to be an atheist is to go through Christianity. Christianity is much more atheist than the usual atheismGǪ."
Really really interesting idea there. That is all. "He has mounted his hind-legs, and blown crass vapidities through the bowel of his neck."-á - Ambrose Bierce on Oscar Wilde's Lecture in San Francisco 1882 |

My Wells Fargo account was hacked in Jan 2012 about 2 weeks after I moved to Floriderp. Had logged in to my account and was changing my address from San Fran to Palm Harbor, FL and it said my address was somewhere in Millbrae, CA and had a phone number entered that was not mine already !. I called Wells Fargo immediately and they locked the account right away and I had to go to a branch to prove who I was.
Someone had telephoned Wells Fargo and got them to change that personal information. They had gotten my account information in a huge data theft that had occurred that previous November. And I had just literally changed my passwords and everything the week before, so that was not even enough to stop it.

Because Eastwood's stunt with the chair was not known ahead of time by the Republican Committee at all. It all just came across as surreal and ridiculous, and Eastwood made himself look like an Idiot for the first time ever in a very long career (which has pretty much ended because of it). You know how these political party leaders keep airtight reigns on their campaigns and to have such an unexpected and attention getting piece of silliness suddenly inject itself by surprise.....

Since 1990, only 30 films have received the NC-17 rating. Here is the list of the 20 highest grossing.
I've seen five of them. "Showgirls", "The Cook, The Thief........", "Crash" (this is the one based on the JG Ballard novel, not the film about LA racism), "Wh***" (it was an "R" imho), and "Dice Rules" (that Andrew Dice Clay live film). |

OMG apparently the Miama Dolphin's coaches encouraged the bullying:
"Miami Dolphins' coaches asked football player Richie Incognito, who was the offensive line's undisputed leader, to toughen up teammate Jonathan Martin after he missed a voluntary workout last spring, at least two sources told the Sun Sentinel.
The sources told the paper they believe that Incognito, who is accused of using racially incendiary language and bullying tactics against Martin, may have taken those orders too far."
Richie Incognito Suspended Indefinitely as NFL Investigates Jonathan Martin Case
"A degree from an elite academic school can make a player a magnet for bullying from teammates in the National Football League, according to a former Harvard University linebacker who spent seven seasons in the NFL. "

Falken Falcon wrote:Mold Experiment ReportStarting a experiment to answer two questions 1. Does already moldy object accelerate the modling of an non-moldy object? 2. If it does approximately how much faster does the molding occur? Day one: I cut one white bread slice in half (Approximaetly the same size) and put one of the halves to a plate with the already moldy swiss roll (Sample #1) and one of the halves to a empty plate as a control (Sample #2) Day two: Quick look while i did my daily routines and did not spot any mold Day tree: Light molding on sample #1. No mold on sample #2. At this point we have answer to the first question. Day six: Heavy molding on sample #1 approximately 30% of the surface area covered by mold and light molding spots on sample #2. The battery on my potato had run out so i could not take photos. Day seven: Sample #1 is molding rapidly and is now at 40% surface coverage and sample #2 has moderate molt spots. Conclusion: Direct contact moldy stuff accelerates molding significantly. The acceleration is somewhere around 300-400% and now i need to burn my plate as the swiss roll has been there for 2 weeks
This is starting to remind me of the horrifying Gross Jar Experiment that Vice Magazine did about 8 years ago........

Still chuckling over one of my favorite things pointed out by Mr. Plinkett in his review of "Phantom Menace" is the existence of the scene towards the end when Yoda declares Obi-Wan to finally be a Jedi Knight.........when the movie's opening Text Crawl had clearly stated that "2 Jedi Knights are on their way (to do something, somewhere)....".

It is if one doesn't mind a film being more about ideas than telling any kind of traditional story (Tree of Life, 2001, INLAND EMPIRE, etc.).
The Wachowski Siblings (can't call them "Brothers" anymore really ) do an excellent job of never letting the audience ever lose it's way in juggling 6 storylines though. |

Not only would it be easy to troll/exploit by bigger alliances, but it would just make the battles spill out into adjacent systems. System one gets locked down? Its gates get camped and become the next site for battles. I'm not saying that running the game at a fraction of the speed is enjoyable. I just don't know that there are that many great alternatives.

Upon further thought.....
The 'cultural cleansing' going on in major cities like London, New York, and San Francisco that are driving out the 'poor' and the 'artistic' is really no different from the Chinese Cultural Revolution. At all.
It's just slower, sneakier, and more subtle in its execution. (ed: And much much more widespread). |

NY Times 1985 review of "Neuromancer" a year late (the novel's popularity was a slow building burn, the actual release initially unnoticed).
"I have to apologize for failing to review William Gibson's NEUROMANCER (Ace, Paper, $2.95) when it appeared last year. What put me off, I think, was the title, which struck me as an ungainly play on words, hinting at some trendy hybrid of sword-and-sorcery fantasy and high-tech adventure, with perhaps a bit of heavy-breathing sex thrown in."  |

Indeed. And with PBS's funding almost cut to zero ("But, The People will step up and support it with their own cash, even in this economy, oh yessir indeedy") there is just a horrible serious dearth of any programming at all. I've never seen anything like it.
8 PBS channels, and all the shows are either involving the military (veteran's Day stuff, so that's understandable), Opera performances, fishing shows (yup, on PBS), White House State Dinner concerts, sewing and quilting shows, exercise, yoga, and political yammering.

Seriously, some of the better programming is the ancient shows on MeTV, which I unfairly left out above. But even it has its pros and cons.
A lot of the old sitcoms from the 50s like "Leave it to Beaver" when laid bare nowadays truly reveal a horrifying picture of the most ingrained, lockstep, whites only, depiction of the Eisenhower-ian Worldview. the show is truly awful, as unrealistic as the "Brady Bunch" which at least shamelessly bothers to acknowledge that it is essentially a live action cartoon, as is "Gilligan's Island".
And in the Westerns from the 50s and 60s, it's actually shocking how many ethnic groups from the Chinese to American Indians are portrayed by quite obviously white actors.
Just now, this Indian Chief shows up on "Daniel Boone", and I'm thinking, sorry, but absolutely no American Indian ever was that furry. Ever. They just absolutely are not.

Yeah. To get my "Game of Thrones" and "Boardwalk Empire" would be $80 a month though.
Cheaper to buy the Blu-Ray Boxes of what I like, tbh. They are not even $80. "He has mounted his hind-legs, and blown crass vapidities through the bowel of his neck."-á - Ambrose Bierce on Oscar Wilde's Lecture in San Francisco 1882 |

The big deal when paying for cable started in the late 70s/early 80s was there were no commercials. That was the point.
But then MTV came along and, as Jello Biafra of The Dead Kennedys put it, "They finally figured out a way to make us watch commercials 24 hours a day."

No, I'm not going to watch Neil DeGrasse Tyson and Commander Hadfield tear "Gravity" a new one over it's 'misuse' of physics.
I find it sad that otherwise smart people have absolutely no understanding of how fictional narratives have to work for an audience, and that sticking to absolute accuracy in situations like this will only lead to a massive snooze-fest.
I go to movies to be mostly entertained, or enlightened. You can explain the real science to me in a documentary.
I consider having the Enterprise underwater in the latest Star Trek film to be much more egregious, in that it slaps Roddenberry right in the face for his belief that these ships cannot fly through atmosphere nor land, thus the requirement of the transporter.

"No formal numbers have been released, but the Atlanta Journal-Constitution says that of the $672 million projected for the Cobb County stadium, $450 million will be public money. Where's that coming from, in a cash-strapped county that's cutting teaching jobs and requiring unpaid furloughs for all school employees?
"Taxes, of course. But since the deal is going straight to the Cobb County Commission for a vote on Nov. 26, we know it'll be a hike in existing taxes. Any new tax would require a voter referendum, so by bypassing that, local officials make sure that Cobb County residents won't get a say on funding their shiny new ballpark."
And this from a firmly held Republican territory, people who supposedly do not believe in raising taxes for anything.

Watching a show about JFK (which is going to be fair unavoidable on this 50th Anniversary).
Reminded that I had forgotten that President Jimmy carter, though Democrat, was a fundamentalist Southern Baptist, and most indeed.
And how could I forget that ? Because he never, ever, not once did he ever, drag his religion into his office or into politics in any way.
Unlike the ill-educated idiots today who are masquerading as politicians to advance their religious beliefs and so proudly proclaiming as much. It's a very very dangerous situation now, really it is.

I've noticed that the past decade or so there has been an uptick in things that are massively popular beyond belief, yet I know absolutely not a soul who 'participates".
Like "American Idol" and "Dancing with the stars". I don't believe I've ever even talked to anyone that watches either, ever.
Who are these people ? Where do they live ? How do they celebrate their Thanksgiving ? Or are they more like to start singing you "The Song of My People" ? I have to admit I have no idea what Neo-country is, so I looked it up on google. I found a song, not sure if this is really considered neo-country : Murder by Death - I'm afraid of who's afraid of Virginia Wolf. I have to admit, I kind of liked it, reminded me of the early 80s punk / goth bands like Bauhaus...

Besides, especially after reailroads appeared, those distances are irrelevant.
And a whole lot of the states in the Northeast are tiny, very tiny. And that where all these differences got started initially anyway.

I'm still stunned at how Canadian Law could have DERPED so badly when creating their municipal laws:
"According to current provincial law, there's more or less one way for Ford to be forced from office. If the mayor was convicted and jailed for a crime, he would no longer be eligible to hold a municipal office.
"Toronto has no mayoral recall process like the one that began before San Diego's ex-mayor Bob Filner's resignation. The most the city council seems to be able to do right now is to bring up a measure that would call on Ford to take a leave of absence. That measure includes another provision asking provincial officials to re-write its municipal laws so that Ford can be forcibly removed if he refuses to take leave or go. That's an idea provincial officials are open to considering, even though they'd reportedly prefer not to get involved."
What a perfect situation to be absolutely exploited by those with nefarious power dreams ! Scary, scary, scary.

Now how ever now with the Mobile Depot I can just bring that with me anchor it and use it as a mobile base of operations. ie some place to store my ammo and salvage/loot so my "incursions" can be longer in duration and more profitable.
If that makes any scene.
Oh indeed it does. There's no arguing with any of that. What bothers me is that they seem to accumulate about 5 of these in different mechanical areas of the game, throw in a new ship or 2 (if), and call it an Expansion.
Every other game I've played always had radical stuff to add when calling it an expansion. Even Civ 5. It's first expansion introduced 2 now amazingly important things; the Religion and Espionage mechanics. And the 2nd expansion just added International Trade Routes, another aspect that like the other 2 are vital and integral to even winning the game. None of this "Ok, here's a new but faster and more expensive way to do something you've always done."

All of this yammering about her 'carrying on the tradition' of the avant-garde in pop music.........bullcrap. That Jeff Koons statue of her that was unveiled was paid for by her, and I can start a list of all the NYC performance artists that she is ripping off and borrowing from by name.
She is not creative or original at all. And I've seen everything she has done before years ago. Annie Sprinkle rocked a meat dress 30 years ago.

This is nothing but a councilman's scheme to get that Tax money for "enforcement" that will absolutely never happen. Ever. What are they gonna do, knock on doors out of the blue to "check" ? That's illegal without a court order.

Domineren wrote: what happens when the timer in the ghost site ticks down? it blows up? do you blow up as well?
Apparently so.
"The moment that the first player enters a Ghost Site, an invisible and random timer will start ticking. You will never know how long until the traps laid by the pirates might explode, shredding your bulkheads and leaving you adrift in your pod.
"Your objective, if you wish to risk life and limb (well ... your crew's lives and limbs) is to hack your way into the sites 4 research facilities, grab whatever you find, and get out as fast as you can. You will only have one chance to hack, if you fail you will set off the containers security and they will explode. While Ghost Sites are not exploration sites, you'll still need to use either a data or relic analyzer to access the vaults. If you're successful in hacking, you'll be given loot (which won't be scattered), but if you take too long, the pirates will be alerted to your presence and will warp in to attack you."

I really want to change my sig line, but that sentence is still just so amazing. Perfect for GD.
Ambrose Bierce was a really amazing writer, sort of the Stephen King of his day, but for ideas, not for volume of output His short stories are genuinely terrifying even if over 150 years old.
But he met with a weird end: (born June 24, 1842; assumed to have died sometime after December 26, 1913).
"In October 1913 Bierce, then aged 71, departed Washington, D.C., for a tour of his old Civil War battlefields. By December he had passed through Louisiana and Texas, crossing by way of El Paso into Mexico, which was in the throes of revolution. In Ciudad Ju+írez he joined Pancho Villa's army as an observer, and in that role he witnessed the Battle of Tierra Blanca."
"Bierce is known to have accompanied Villa's army as far as the city of Chihuahua. His last known communication with the world was a letter he wrote there to Blanche Partington, a close friend, dated December 26, 1913. After closing this letter by saying, "As to me, I leave here tomorrow for an unknown destination," he vanished without a trace, becoming one of the most famous disappearances in American literary history."

'Alpha House' review: Garry Trudeau gets laughs
"Receiving an award from the Council for Normal Marriage, Louis doesn't know when to shut up after he reaffirms his opposition to gay marriage and reels off several sex acts to which he's also opposed, displaying an uncomfortable familiarity with the details of each. A decision to show he has "balls" by going on "The Colbert Report" doesn't go as you might expect: It's an even funnier disaster."
"Uncomfortable familiarity" Like the real Sen. David Craig and those airport restroom hijinx ! "He has mounted his hind-legs, and blown crass vapidities through the bowel of his neck."-á - Ambrose Bierce on Oscar Wilde's Lecture in San Francisco 1882 |

So, I walk back from the corner store, and decide to use the back entrance to our building, and I round the corner and at the back entrance are 3 kids 15-16 years old, two girls and a guy.
Asked them just what were they doing ? They were looking for "Joe".
There are only 6 units, currently occupied by singletons, and there is no "Joe" at all.
So I ask them which unit he is in and they say 209 (we only have 101-104 and 201-204).
I asked them, mind you this is 3 older teenagers in this day and age, why they don't call him on the phone to come down ?
"We don't have a phone."

I told them, to hang on while I went up to knock on his door.
Looking out my own window a few minutes later, they just sauntered off down the road.
I seriously have no idea. Especially the "no phone" part. They were well dressed and not creepy. "He has mounted his hind-legs, and blown crass vapidities through the bowel of his neck."-á - Ambrose Bierce on Oscar Wilde's Lecture in San Francisco 1882 |

Rob Ford, the fact you so vehemently deny alcoholism and drug issues is the first proof that you are a mess.
I know from my own experience, that even at "rock bottom", there "is no problem". "I can quit anytime I want".

Now this is a Flori-DERP:
Tampa man dies following one-vehicle crash in Mulberry
"According to a Polk County SheriffGÇÖs Office report Simpson was traveling south on State Road 37 in his 2010 Volvo C30 approaching State Road 60 when he apparently lost control of the vehicle. Investigators say the Volvo went airborne and then bottomed out GÇô leaving several large gouge marks on the roadway.
The vehicle then began to spin sideways before striking the curb on the west side of SR 37 GÇô also known as South Church Ave. The Volvo then went up onto the sidewalk, continued southbound as it crossed over a set of railroad tracks and slid across Phosphate Ave.
The report states the vehicle was traveling sideways when it struck a curb on Phosphate Ave., breaking off a piece of concrete in the process. The Volvo went airborne again over 2nd St. Southwest before striking the side of a building GÇô Maintenance Building of Corrosion Control.
The vehicle crashed through the cinder block structure and landed upside down inside the building. A tire and rim from the Volvo separated from the vehicle during the last rotation and struck another portion of the wall, creating a very large hole.
The collision produced a crevice in the side of the building 15 feet high and 25 feet wide." 
That "crevice". "He has mounted his hind-legs, and blown crass vapidities through the bowel of his neck."-á - Ambrose Bierce on Oscar Wilde's Lecture in San Francisco 1882 |

I seem to somewhat remember when Christmas time started in December. Maybe, the last weekend in November, but certainly not September like it does now. I also remember it meaning something different than Battle Royale at outlet malls. 
I'll never forget the outcry on the bus going to work in San Fran in 1999 when we drove by the Macy's at 5th and Market and the window displays were Christmas trees.
On August 21, which I do indeed remember with exactitude as that was my dad's b-day.

On one hand, I suppose I can see why a company wouldn't want to hire a foul mouthed, morally destitute, party animal. On the other, why should their personal life impact their ability to be hired if they are educated and professional enough for the position?
Because if that employee makes a stupid move related to those behaviors, the company can get in a lot of trouble and be sued in some cases for ignoring what is easily discoverable in not even a background check.

meh.
Also, the behaviors eventually express themselves in the workplace anyway. I myself got 2 bosses fired back in the 80's when I caught them doing lines at their desks. Would've been great and a lot of life-destroying drama avoided for a few other minor employees (situation was complex) had we known it was all a possibility, but we had no social media back then.
Why hire a potential problem when there are tons of other qualified candidates who don't publicly post their behavioral problems and brag about them ?

So, about 2 days after Lou Reed passed, our PBS station aired the old 1998 "American Masters" episode featuring Lou.
They have had it on schedule for re-airing about 4 times since, but every time it's on they have an episode rerun of "Antiques Roadshow"
It turns out that, unlike in 1998, the station received "thousands of complaints" concerning "depictions of deviant lifestyles" and "that qu**r David Bowie".

So I see this "charming" headline: 6 Year Old's Nagging Saves Family
Which led to the article with this alarming text:
"When 6-year-old Brevin Hunter heard the tornado siren begin to wail out its warnings, he knew exactly what to do: Put his video game down and head to the basement.
More challenging was convincing his family that he was right.
"Please, Mom. This is what they teach us in school. When you hear the siren, you need to go somewhere safe," Brevin told his mom, Lisa, according to the Chicago Tribune. But when Lisa Hunter looked outside, she saw that the skies looked calm. She thought it was a drill.
Fortunately Brevin kept on bugging, and mom eventually listened. She, Brevin, 11-year-old Brody and an aunt went down to the basement with a futon mattress to play it safe. Roughly 10 minutes later, the tornado hit the family's home."
Boy's tornado warnings helped save family
Instead of being hocked as a fluff piece, this is actually just further proof of how stupid parents are in a lot of cases these days. Anyone in the Midwest knows you take those sirens seriously, always.
I fear for this child because of who is raising him. Thank goodness for his teachers (but how long will he have them ?). "He has mounted his hind-legs, and blown crass vapidities through the bowel of his neck."-á - Ambrose Bierce on Oscar Wilde's Lecture in San Francisco 1882 |

The film of William Gibson's short story "Johnny Mnemonic" is actually on broadcast here in Tampa this afternoon.
Got my Keanu-blinders on already.
What's funny is I always thought it was studio nonsense that resulted in the character of Molly Millions not being in the film (she is one of the mains in "Neuromancer" as well). But William Gibson actually answered my tweet in regards, saying he wrote her out of the script himself ! Because a "Neuromancer" film was in the works back then as well, and he wanted to "avoid character confusion".

The up and coming film critic Michal Oleszczyk really ticked me off with this statement:
What film do you hate that most people love?
"The Tree of Life." That "National Geographic" opening and symbolic-beach-from-City-of-Angels coda killed a true masterpiece sandwiched in between. 
First off, that was not a City of Angels at the end, it's almost the entire cast as dead people. There is only the one angel in the very last image of the film for a split second. AND that "National Geographic" opening (which is actually 15 minutes in) is absolutely pivotal to everything else depicted in the film.
He obviously missed the entire point of the film, and imho is not qualified to even comment. Reminds me of all the weirdos who trashed the first "Star Wars" for being awful and boring until they got off "that stupid desert planet".

You go Paramount. They own the rights to "It's a Wonderful Life" for sure and it turns out and are never, ever going to approve anyone making a sequel.
The public spoke too, loudly and angrily about this ridiculous endeavor. Wish there was even more of a backlash against the endless clown parade of reconstituted ideas.
Just this morning someone thinks it's a great idea to remake Adrian Lyne's "Jacob's Ladder" (which is great, but was not even remotely successful at all).

Can they not hire pilots capable of landing at the proper airport ? 747 landed at the tiny, tiny airport in Wichita, Kansas instead of the Air Force Base filled with parts for 787.

I know. Unfortunately, linking the article and the pics would be inappropriate.
I've always believed that if a sufficiently advanced race had been observing us back then (and now), they would not really see much distinction between American Democracy, Euro Fascism and Communism. They would all 3 be considered different manifestations of the same thing.

Must of missed it, darn.  You know, I saw a post the other day by an ISD closing a thread, he quoted a forum rule which said Trolling isn't permitted. I was quite literally taken aback - there is a RULE against trolling?? Given the fact that 90% of forum posts in several subforums are nothing but trolling day in/out you can forgive me for believing that ISD in question was in fact trolling also by quoting a rule against it. Just an observation. 
That charge is usually leveled at originating posts and thread titles, not the later snarking.

Oh goodness. I don't know.
It's a completely different show now, but even when I was 13 or so I found it to be too ridiculous for my taste, or something. Plus, in Texas it was on soooooo late at night.
But I was always impressed by it's longevity. Too bad they didn't go with Helen Mirren for the newest doctor. That would draw in a whole other chunk of audience.

More evidence that the film companies need to get a handle on their marketing and trailers, if you remember me being disappointed by the trailer for Disney's "Frozen"
Then there is this end of a review:
"Disney's marketing so far has been somewhat disastrous - as if they're afraid to sell the movie that they've made, so they market it as being full of funny animals, pratfalls, and Olaf (who, to be fair, is adorable, and Josh Gad is terrific). But don't let that dissuade you.
"FROZEN is a return to that wonderful Disney musical tradition, dormant for a few years, but returning with the fury of a winter blizzard. These are the movies that Disney Animation needs to be making, not trivial movies like CHICKEN LITTLE or MARS NEEDS MOMS, but a return to the days of Howard Ashman, Alan Menken, the Sherman Brothers, Frank Churchill and Larry Morey, Leigh Harline and Ned Washington, Peggy Lee... the list goes on. FROZEN is magical in the best Disney tradition, and the best American animated film of the year."

"Congress went home for Thanksgiving break without passing a farm bill. If the bill drags out beyond New Year's Day, it could send milk prices soaring to $7 a gallon.
"A key sticking point holding up the bill is funding for food stamps.

Those were compiled by the main film critic for the San Francisco Chronicle, and he made honestly a tragic mistake, especially for someone at his level.
He put "Terms of Endearment" on his list. BUT:
"A sequel, "The Evening Star", in which Shirley MacLaine and Jack Nicholson reprised their roles, was released in 1996 to much less critical or commercial acclaim." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Terms_of_Endearment#Sequel
Truly professional journalism is dead. This is why I especially don't believe most "facts" in regular news stories anymore, especially the early initial reports.

Yeah, I caught that GWTW sequel error too, and noted the novel. It was added in a slightly later edit.
The "It's a Wonderful Life" attempt was quashed by MGM last week. And the "Casablanca" idea disappeared over the past 12 months due to no traction at all. Nobody was interested really.

Our PBS station is right on the money with the family holiday programming this AM:
"Assassination: Idaho's Trial of the Century" A reenactment of the trial of union organizer Bill Haywood who, in 1907, was accused of paying Harry Orchard to dynamite former Gov. Frank Steunenberg.
"A Death in St. Augustine" An investigation into the 2010 death of Michelle O'Connell, which was ruled a suicide. The 24 year old allegedly shot herself with the service pistol that belonged to her boyfriend, a St. Johns County, Fla., deputy sheriff.

Kinda disturbing how almost all the articles don't just simply say "died in a car accident". They almost all say "dies in a fiery car crash". As if it makes it more relevant ? I have no idea.

The analitics are in and #MST3K trended #1 on Thanksgiving day with over 12 million impressions!
Films shown were:
"Space Mutiny" "I Accuse My Parents" "Cave Dwellers" "The Final Sacrifice" "Werewolf" "Mitchell"
Hopefully Netflix is interested now with those numbers.

Very good analysis to be honest. What burns my bacon are the film theorists who are going around shouting that auteurism is a falsehood and all film is strictly the product of all the collaboration and any similarities at all between a director's work are sheer accident.
If so, that's rather astonishing coincidences for even the visual look of Tim Burton's films.

The problem is, these companies open these things up in especially poor urban and rural areas. The notorious Bayview/Hunters Point area of San Francisco has at least 3 of each major outlet, but the residents have to bus themselves 2 miles just to get to a grocery store. There literally is not one grocery store in an area holding about 95,000 residents of low Income. They just simply do not have the choice.
I face the same thing in this neighborhood here in Tampa. Within 4 blocks of here, and within 2 blocks of each other are : KFC, McDonalds, Burger King, Checkers, Wendy's, Krispy Kreme, AND Dunkin' Donuts (Krispy and Dunkin are literally across the street from each other). I would have to travel 3 miles on 2 bus routes just to get to a descent sit-down Mexican restaurant (which is still not that healthy). There literally are no alternatives.
And the government is not deciding what is either good or bad. That's just a knee-jerk comment. Other independent organizations and the medical community have quite obviously figured out what's good and bad.
And how did we get into the position where a Twinkie is cheaper to buy than a fresh carrot. It's all just a money grab, and health be damned.

IF there was profit to be made, there'd be a grocery store there. Honestly, I prefer to buy produce at Farmer's Markets over the grocery store anyway. I'd rather the independant growers got the profit, not the supermarket chains.
I, and my family, do eat "fast food" on occasion. We would prefer making dinners at home. However, the point I was trying to drive (with the hammer from Random's Hammer Emporium) is that the government does NOT need to interfere. When the government interferes, there is a cost. Nothing comes for free.
They have played around in farm subsidies for years and thats managed to turn "Mom and Pop" operations into huge corporate farms. My aunt and uncle who are farmers have watched their neighbors lands get bought out by corporate farms. They are the ones who know how to "milk" the system (no pun intended) and they know the loopholes on how to get fabulously wealthy on the government subsidies.
Sorry, I'm rambling. TL:DR.....keep the damned government out.
Oh yes. The whole subsidy thing is a complete disaster.
What's bringing things to this level, really, was Reagan cutting those taxes on the richest of the richest Americans. Back in the 70's there was a lot less racism, things were much more balanced across society, and things were working well for most people. Even "The Jefferson's" were moving on up, remember.
We are living in the supposed era of money showering down on the poor because of "the trickle-down economics". Yeah, right. The Gipper and his cronies dug this hole for us, and there really is no way out without massive societal reconstruction and a period of chaotic reorganization of just about everything, that nobody really wants to go through.
I think the situation is going to be even uglier this coming year, especially since it's a Mid-Term congressional election year.

Almost every insurance company turns me down due to pre-existing conditions. Of the one or two that would cover me, their price is absolutely ridiculous and something I can't afford and they still don't cover much. Its a shame for people like me have that have to deal with basically no health care at all.
Exactly. The only reason I have healthcare being HIV + (now, that's one heck of a pre-existing condition) is because Medicare is obligated to provide it due to my being on SS Disability as well. If I was actually out in the productive workplace or trying to provide for it myself, it's just not gonna happen for me.

You and me both.
I've pretty much just been playing Skill Training Online for the past 6 weeks or so.
I paid for my first month's subscription exactly 4 years ago to the date. Dominion was fairly new. That next summer we got PI, that winter we got Incursions, and the next summer we had the Incarna Mess. Then we had 3 expansions of fixes (that were needed) but very little added (Bounties revamped....Dueling). And the last 2 Expansions just changed mechanics of Exploration and now Warp Speed (and reworking of High Sec PI to be more in equivalence to Low and Null PI).
Yawn.
The "build a stargate to whole new areas" thing is obviously going to be a project for huge alliances and such to "build" or whatever is exactly going to go down with that, which may or may not be a thing for casual players, especially as far as access is controlled.
There just isn't much being done for the casual gamer who just wants to play and poke around in a virtual galaxy. This is over 2 years now without anything further really added to do (I find Exploration to be just annoying).
Not quite what I came here for 4 years ago, and nowhere near the level of embellishment and improvement, especially in light of how much we all pay every month.
I don't know..........I really don't. Just feeling really conflicted.

Hey Rain. Apparently "auteurial sadism" is now a 'thing'.
""Inside Llewyn Davis" is the most satisfyingly diabolical cinematic structure that the Coens have ever contrived, and that's just one reason that I suspect it may be their best movie yet. How Llewyn inadvertently inherits, loses, then re-finds, and kind of adopts, the aforementioned cat is one of the more involved traps of the movie's plot, which may make the wary viewer, or the all-around anti-Coenite, suspect that this is some kind of exercise in auteurial sadism, a charge the brothers themselves laid themselves open to when they admitted that in concocting 2009's great "A Serious Man" they thoroughly enjoyed torturing their lead character.

That wonderful 3-episode franchise (I cannot in good conscience include the 4th) should be frozen as is for all time. Remakes are useless, and reboots with another actor besides Harrison is just a waste of everyone's time (like the Total Recall and Robocop remakes).

Explain to me, this sausage gravy.
In the UK sausage gravy as you put it would be onion gravy. Or rather, pork stock mixed with flour, browning etc and thin diced onions. Is that the same thing?
It's made from a basic roux recipe......the 'remains' of whatever was fried still in the pan and flour and milk are added and stirred until thickened. It's used as gravy for chicken fried steak and mashed potatoes and other things.
For breakfast, one stirs in some chopped cooked sausage in tiny pieces and it served as "biscuits and gravy".

I've swore I read something about high amounts of sugar causes bacteria to loose water and then die off.
Yeah, that's why one never sees much junk on sugar cubes or in sugar bowls etc. But 'diluted', it is food for them (and us) and a smaller amount used in dressing or whatever probably encourages the use of more actual preservatives than would be called for otherwise.
But pure and concentrated..........just thought of the sugar used to make gravlox. That kind of thick sugar coating would indeed kill the bacteria thus curing the salmon as well.
Anyway, I Googled around and found that sugar is used as a preservative in marmalades and jams and the like. And it is in salad dressings, but not as a preservative, as there are the others for that. It's just to make sure the brain gets a jolt of that sweet, so one is more likely to buy it again, or overpour on the next salad.
And this quote from a dietician's site: "Sugar, HFCS or artificial sweeteners arenGÇÖt the only issues with salad dressings; they are practically experimental, preservative playgrounds.

And so it begins already:
Colorado town's vote on drone ordinance postponed
"Deer Trail, CO -- population 598 -- was scheduled to vote Tuesday on a measure that would allow its residents to hunt for federal drones and shoot them down."
""What has me fired up is it's trespassing," he said. "It doesn't belong there. Yes, it's privacy. But that's only one part of it. Who's going to be flying these drones?"
"The ordinance specifies the kinds of weapons and ammunition residents could use and puts a bounty on recovered parts -- $25 for the fuselage or wing, $100 for a whole drone that has U.S. government markings."
I hope everyone realizes that this issue is going to get huge and ugly....and soon. (sigh) Just another thing that's going to generate an endless stream of depressing headlines and an upset populace, that's honestly already on "the brink". Ugh.

Just curious, your thoughts on civilian camera drone use?
The whole concept, civilian of government usage of drones, is too open to exploitation and nefarious purposes. We can't even begin to stop hackers and cyber attacks at all. It makes things "too easy" if we elect what turns out to be "the wrong guy" for President or whatever.
It's also ultimately a waste of money, and has it's only economic benefit for those who are going to make these things and their software. And they already have the money to push this nonsense through.
Humanity got around for how many hundreds of thousands of years without these things....and will continue to do so should they cease to exist.

And now for something completely different:
"The query Gǣis my husband gay?Gǥ on Google outranked Gǣis my husband cheating?Gǥ by 10% in the United States of all Google searches that begin, Gǣis my husbandGǪGǥ It is also 8 times more common than Gǣis my husband an alcoholic?Gǥ and 10 times more common than Gǣis my husband depressed?Gǥ Perhaps it goes without saying these may be questions better directed at your husband than a search engine."
"The two states where the question GÇ£is my husband gay?GÇ¥ is most commonly Googled turn out to be Louisiana and South Carolina"
"GÇ£In 21 of the 25 states where this question is most frequently asked, support for gay marriage is lower than the national average.GÇ¥ "
"Searches for gay **** and male-for-male sexual encounters on dating sites in places where social media and census data only indicate a 1% gay male population, prove for the author that gay men do not exist in smaller numbers in intolerant places, they just exist in various degrees of the closet."

Speaking of fish......SeaWorld needs to seriously stop it with whales as "entertainment". Their upcoming musical line-up for this spring has almost entirely cancelled (Heart, Joan Jett, Cheap Trick, Willie Nelson.....they are all bailing out).
Besides, when I was 11 yo, I liked the Shamu performance, but I was more thrilled and interested by touching and holding all the tide-pool creatures. There are many more things for them to do and display besides entrapping these huge, problematic mammals.

Finished watching a short series on Netflix called "Prophets of Science Fiction". It's only 8 episodes but is quite thorough. It's produced by and occasionally narrated by Ridley Scott.
The episodes are: Mary Shelley, Philip K. D**k, HG Wells, Arthur C. Clarke, Isaac Asimov, Jules Verne, Robert Heinlein, and George Lucas.
The final one with Lucas I don't agree with as far as inclusion. For the intentions of the series and it's theme, Gene Roddenberry is way more of an appropriate choice than Lucas.
I was just really impressed with it, especially since someone so rarely does this kind of thing for SF. "He has mounted his hind-legs, and blown crass vapidities through the bowel of his neck."-á - Ambrose Bierce on Oscar Wilde's Lecture in San Francisco 1882 |

Yeah. Pretty much. I think this idea only applies to the production of the show, since the accurate costumes and fabrics are so expensive to make now. Also, it would affect mainly just the actors playing the "downstairs" roles. The actors in the "upstairs" roles are constantly changing costumes.

One thing that does bug me about Downton, and i understand why they leave it out, is the amount of *ahem* attention the maids would have gotten from the young men visiting the house. And the "compliance" they tended to show to their "social betters". Granted there is no young, adult, male heir, but at the time a lot of maids were forbidden from being in the same room as a man even if he were married as to not lead to misunderstandings.
Indeed. The kitchen maids on the show are always in flurry over the "newest footman" and all that. And the gay footman has acted inappropriately towards a few of the other footmen (but then that had to be so secretive back then, the desperation is understandable).

Yeah. Those high tech company buses have been annoying residents in SF for almost a decade now. They will illegally take up municipal bus stops and pile up 3 and 4 deep in residential neighborhoods. Keep in mind that the almost the entirety of SF is tiny 2-way streets like in Europe, so there really is not the room for this kind of stuff.
And it looks like San Franciscans have had it. This is the 2nd Tech Bubble in the past 20 years, and it's proving even more devastating to the economically disadvantaged in that city. There are ads for folks trying to split rent on efficiency apartments where the 2nd person gets a sleeping bag on the couch....for $1800 a month for the half. It's just something that cannot realistically sustain itself. Where the heck are service workers supposed to live in town ?? A town of only the rich cannot exist for long.
Also: S.F. tech companies' civic image at stake as backlash grows
"Local and national media have been filled with stories about longtime residents' simmering resentment about the economic good times squeezing out families, artists and low-wage workers. In its forecast for 2014, the Economist even predicted the anger in San Francisco and Silicon Valley will fuel a "peasants' revolt against the sovereigns of cyberspace.""
"That wall is creating what some critics call a tale of two cities. Ellis Act evictions, used most often so a landlord can clear his or her building to sell it, are up 170 percent since 2010. Meanwhile, the median home sale price in the city hit $1 million in June."
"Some neighbors say the resentment isn't helped by the fact that they see the tech workers only when they're boarding the private shuttle buses that take them down Highway 101 to Google or Apple, delaying Muni buses and blocking traffic while they're at it."
"They don't see them active in the local school or helping the local merchants or helping with the local playground," Campos said." "He has mounted his hind-legs, and blown crass vapidities through the bowel of his neck."-á - Ambrose Bierce on Oscar Wilde's Lecture in San Francisco 1882 |

Thats what id do if i were in their place.
This is the big difference between now and back in the 1800's when even the robber barons would re-invest in infrastructure and things like that.

This seems a never ending story, and I've seen the same envy and resentment in Detroit. Those evil suburbanites that come and work downtown. What are they doing for me? (Paying city income taxes which fund what little is left of city services, spending money at local restaurants, forming start-ups in the smaller spaces in the "safe" downtown area...)
To criticize the tech workers for going home after work is kind of silly. Why should they subject themselves to a dramatically higher probability of person-against-person crime by hanging around? Make the community safe and something else happens. Neighborhoods in Boston and New York are good case studies for this.
You're just a little off-track....due to the unique nature of San Fran mostly.
Yes, buses are better than 30 cars. But they should do pick-ups downtown, where it is set up for this kind of thing. These buses, sometimes 4 or 5 at once, start warming up their engines in residential neighborhoods at 5:30 AM and do indeed block the streets in some cases.
Also, these are city dwellers who are bused out to the Burbs to work, then bused back into the city in the evening. Kinda backwards from everywhere else n America. And these types only eat out and go to businesses that are new expensive and trendy. They do not support the institutional businesses of the city that have been there sometimes since time immemorial it seems.

It's just really sad. The changes in the city from 1995 when I moved there till 2001 were astonishing. After the collapse in 2000, the formerly busy sidewalks South of Market were like ghost towns. The astonishing level of decadence during the Dot Boom just really tore it apart. Now, it's all happening all over again.
One more thing I remembered. SF did host the America's Cup this year. Larry Ellison of Oracle promised and swore and promised on a stack of 100 Bibles, that the city would net $925,000,000 from the event. So what happened ? The sailing team that got caught cheating was allowed to win, and the city would up being almost $6,000,000 in the red, that, no, Larry Ellison is not going to pick up.

True. He is indeed a "blank cipher". This weirdly serves him and the film well in cases like "Cars" and Woody Allen's "Midnight in Paris".

William Gibson GÇÅ@GreatDismal
The Year in Weird Florida
ed: "This is a contender for Florida story of the decade. As we all know, in Florida there are violent people, naked people, poopers and masturbators -- but rarely is one man the total package. Gregory Bruni is allegedly that package. He reportedly started on the roof of a North Fort Myers home, then defecated and masturbated inside. He was naked. Then, he pulled a big-screen TV off the wall, rubbed some of the family's clothes on his face, and avoided gunfire before police arrived."

Oh, and besides people like me, the Duck Dynasty Guy explained why blacks were happy during the Jim Crow days in Louisiana.
""Where we lived was all farmers. The blacks worked for the farmers. I hoed cotton with them. I'm with the blacks, because we're white trash," Robertson said. "They're singing and happy. I never heard one of them, one black person, say, 'I tell you what: These doggone white people'GÇönot a word!... Pre-entitlement, pre-welfare, you say: Were they happy? They were godly; they were happy; no one was singing the blues.""
Idiot.
"Not a word".......because to do so meant a lynching.
"No one was singing the blues".........oh yeah ? This is why the blues was invented.

I guess the Duck Dynasty Guys are not rednecks. They are indeed self-described "Bible Thumpers" (their words).
That's fine. I don't have any desire at all for the responsibility of "inheriting the Kingdom of God", whatever that could really mean anyway.
Why on earth, of all the magazines out there, was GQ interviewing someone from Duck Dynasty???

OK, so I had to go to the doctor this AM.
I started itching about a month ago for no apparent reason. It seemed to be a case of dry skin or something coming on with winter, but about 2 weeks ago a few red marks would appear where the itching was finally.
During the past 2 weeks it started spreading, and as of yesterday it was really bad, and everywhere. So, I went to a walk-in 24 clinic thing, and got examined.
Scabies. Yes, scabies.
What's freakin' weird is I have not "been with" anybody in well over 2 years (that last relationship really cooked it), so I definitely did not get these through sexual contact.
Living here only temporarily, I just have not gotten around much either. I have no car (didn't need one in SF for 17 years), I have no house guests, I walk back and forth to KMart and the grocery store. I can count on one hand how many times I've had to take the bus to get to my bank. That's seriously it.
So, the doctor was also a bit puzzled about how I could have contracted them, then it hit me.
Our public transportation buses here have cloth fabric seats. Yes, cloth seats for the poor and homeless, etc. Almost every state, California included, mandate hard surface plastic seats for public transport. Period.
The best part: my doctor and I are in the middle of discussing this, when a freakin' bedbug crawls down my pant leg !!!!!
We were both stunned. (They are not in my house...at all). I picked that sucker up on the bus on the way to the doctor !
I have got to get out of this hideous state of Florida, and my March 1st self-imposed deadline cannot come soon enough.

I'm sorry, but pumpkin is revolting.
Welp, I wouldn't trust one made out of the US, to be honest. Too many ingredient substitutions.
They only "bad" pumpkin pies I've ever had were essentially just flavorless, unexciting glop. Not "horrific", but indeed not really what one wants.
Another issue is the canned filling, and pumpkin does some serious absorbing of the "tin" flavor. The filling MUST BE COOKED for 5 minutes to remove the can taste, but hardly anybody at all does this.
Fresh made pumpkin pie is truly fantastic, especially with whipped cream on top. "He has mounted his hind-legs, and blown crass vapidities through the bowel of his neck."-á - Ambrose Bierce on Oscar Wilde's Lecture in San Francisco 1882 |

Another annoying movie title thing is the lack of proper titles on some film trailers, which is becoming standard.
Neither of the 2 trailers for the new Johnny Depp SF Film actually says the title: "Transcendence".
It's apparently titled "transcendencemovie.com"  "He has mounted his hind-legs, and blown crass vapidities through the bowel of his neck."-á - Ambrose Bierce on Oscar Wilde's Lecture in San Francisco 1882 |

Im pretty sure in Star Trek there has to have been one guy who dry humped the enterprise. Edit. Hell... according to the new star trek movies the warp core vibrates. I redact my comment that it might have been a man when theres an equally good chance that a lady could have had her way with the ship too.
On a related note, there has been a change in film that I noticed happening a while back. Female T&A is Out, and Masculine beefcake is In.
"In Man of Steel, though, thereGÇÖs clearly a role reversal. The camera travels lovingly up and down SupermanGÇÖs glistening, shirtless torso, while Lois never even warrants a bra-and-panties moment."
"Even the James Bond franchise, the go-to for hot babes on the big screen, is now more about a ripped Daniel Craig, often shirtless or being sexually tortured, than about the Bond girls. The hero has become the sex symbol."

"With the game tied at 1-1 in overtime, Phoenix goalie Mike Smith was put in an odd situation. The puck went into the air, and he had no idea where it was."
"The puck landed in the back of his pants without him knowing. Smith slid into the goal as he was looking for it and trying to protect the net at the same time. The game ended as he crossed the line with the puck in his pants."

Yup. Pulling out "I don't like it so it's not art", or "it's ugly so it's not art" is such an antiquated idea, it's astonishing it's still lurking around.
The Medici's, and other dictatorial private entities, did a rather excellent job of brainwashing European culture into thinking about art their way, and their way only. All those "beautiful images" did nothing but support the idea of the greatness of the Medici family and their values. All that gold and formal settings and landscapes........
......that are depictions of the "perfect world" they were striving for. Nothing outside of their "rules" of what to paint and how to paint it was allowed. Folks like Michelangelo and Titian were straight-jacketed into maintaining this status quo towards the aggrandizement of these patron families.
In other words, all those lovely canvases from 1500 - 1850's are extremely repressive, finely controlled images, ultimately no different in idea from what Mr H. was determining as "proper art" during his little tenure that were made only to support the furtherance of the ideals of the folks actually paying for the art.
At least now artists have freedom to be artists.
So, ironically what we call "good old traditional art" is born of a fascistic mindset that managed to hold it's power until the Impressionists said "screw this crap".

Yes, that's a very nice, quality picture done by someone with more talent than I have. And it is art.
But it's also considered commercial art. It's just an image that does say or reveal anything about human nature or anything. It just is.
Even something like The B-52's.........they have kept up a particular sensibility in both their music and images and intent, and expanding on the all those sensibilities for so long now, they are considered the Longest Running Piece of Conceptual Art in history.

My favorite artist is Wayne Thiebaud (Tee-bo), one of the few artists whose work sells in the multi-millions while he's still actually living. I actually got to meet him and chat for about 20 minutes, which isn't something very many people get to do.

A sci-fi piece like that is more likely to get me thinking about human nature than 95% of the works I ever saw in the museums in Chicago.
That may all be fine in the mind of the observer of the work. But I can promise you that in that particular picture, the artist had absolutely no comment to make about the nature of being human or revealing a previously unobserved truth. It's just simply a futuristic landscape, saying nothing more than a British landscape from the 1700's.

Matokin Lemant wrote: In simple words who gets the say in if a piece is worth a million bucks or a hundred, and what makes said pieces so expensive.
Oh boy. That's an fascinating and unbelievably complex question. Always. Geez...put me through the wringer next time ! 
Historically, politics have occasionally played a part. Witness Mr. H's gathering up of all 'contemporary' art from the impressionists onward and labeling it Degenerate art....complete with traveling exhibition of that same title.
A lot depends on the reputation of the artist. Sometimes an astonishing oveur is revealed only by accident, like the "Helga" paintings of Andrew Wyeth. Nobody had heard of him, and then suddenly 60 years worth of amazing work is discovered., driving the price from nothing to valuable.
Sometimes it depends on how prolific an artist is, or how prolific he is in one area. For Picasso, small outfits were hired to make official copies of clay vases that are technically Picassos, but there are just so many of them. Some can still be found for only $500.
Same case with Marc Chagall. His oils are certainly going to cost millions, but the lithograph prints....gosh, he did so many, and usually in series of over 500 and such. Those do not cost very much in galleries at all.
Most artists choose early on whether they are going to be a serious gallery artist or a serious commercial artist. And it's always more probable that they choose commercial art, as most are technically proficient at what they do, they don't have that "spark" that brings a work and ideas to life. This is similar to the difference in quality literature, in comparing say Ernest Hemingway with Danielle Steele. They can both churn out books, and they both write, but there is a universe of difference between them. The fine art world is no different on that point. Same thing in comparing a Dodge Colt with a hand-tooled Rolls Royce. I don't believe you'd have any problem choosing which one of those is obviously more valuable.
Finally, this subject is addressed in detail in a wonderful documentary film "Who the F*** is Jackson Pollock ?" It's about a woman who found a rolled up large canvas in her old garage, and years later it was indeed authenticated as a previously unknown Jackson Pollock work. However, no auction house will allow the work to be priced anywhere near the range of other Pollocks. The reasons behind that are way too complex to go into here, but it does outline excellently the issue which you bring up.
Honestly, this is only about half of an explanation. "He has mounted his hind-legs, and blown crass vapidities through the bowel of his neck."-á - Ambrose Bierce on Oscar Wilde's Lecture in San Francisco 1882 |

Too often bad art is excused as being "misunderstood", complex. Sometimes it's just bad art. (Not speaking of the piece linked.) Art that says and emotes nothing but "Frac you!" to all, or even just some few, is very rarely good art. Impressionist pieces didn't say that. The artists may have, but the pieces themselves didn't. They moved, or they made you feel the sun through the willows, or the spray of the sea. They made you feel the earnestness of the dancer, or the pain and loneliness of being separate from all those couples having a walk through the park.
Art can shock, and I'll not argue that it ought not shock, but after a while that becomes cliche. And in the art world cliche is bad.
Oh yes. Believe me, I've seen plenty of weak and bad art in museums. What ticks me is when folks just lump anything from 1850 onwards that is even vaguely abstract as nonsense....and that's a whole lot of folks who do indeed.
And I can guarantee you not a one of them ever had an actual art class or even any exposure to Art History at all. It's like someone who knows and cares nothing about science offering an opinion on what happened during the Big Bang. It's ridiculous and an invalid uninformed opinion.

Matokin Lemant wrote: I understand that but what makes "fine art" vs "commercial art"...like what is the difference between them and how does one tell them apart?
To me all art looks the same....its a picture someone drew/painted.
Commercial art - is created on-demand for a company or other enterprise and is usually intended for mass exposure and distribution. The creative artist in the commercial environment is a hired hand, subject to the constraints and preferences of the employer and/or client, and often not credited for the work. The purpose behind commercial creativity is communication.
Whether visually conveying the virtues of a particular product or service, creating an eye-catching corporate logo to communicating the proper way to perform a task, a commercial artist is essentially organizing information into a visually effective presentation. If the work fulfills the requirements of the assignment, the artist is guaranteed a GÇ£saleGÇ¥ in the form of a fee, commission or a regular salary. Many of todayGÇÖs versatile fine artists also take on commercial assignments to dip into a more dependable income stream, often publishing their commercial efforts under a pseudonym.
Fine art - is often defined as a creation intended primarily for aesthetic purposes and mainly evaluated according to standards of beauty and meaningfulness. While the driving force behind most commercial efforts is communication, here the motivation is more often an expression of deeper meaning though the eyes of the artist.
The artist normally works for himself/herself and is both the initiator and final judge of the work. Decisions about the direction and genre of a piece are his or herGÇÖs to make. While commercial value is related to considerations such as effective communication of a product or service, fine artwork in the marketplace is purely selling itself. Many make a living doing so and build a patron base, but in most cases ultimate financial compensation is not guaranteed. However, the dividends of creative freedom and expression are often substantial.

Does Lawrence KasdanGÇÖs Standalone STAR WARS Movie Follow Young Boba Fett??
Sigh. I just don't know. I'm surprised at how little enthusiasm I'm able to muster out of the SW news we've heard so far (a trilogy, and 3 standalones).
When I honestly think about it, the Star Wars franchise has indeed been very successful, especially from a merchandising standpoint. But the movies themselves don't exactly have the best record.
(I'm leaving all the animated SW series out of this discussion. They are a different animal).
We have 2 masterpieces (A New Hope, Empire), 2 mediocres (Jedi, Sith), and 2 pieces of sh** (Phantom, Clones)....and a horrifically bad Christmas, erm Holiday, Special).
That's hardly stellar. At all. Really, it's kinda pathetic, especially considering all the effort thrown into them over a really long period of time. There is absolutely no excuse for the badness.
And I really like what the author points out at the end. Is Boba Fett really that interesting of a character, deserving of a film? He already occupied most of Attack of the Clones. There is no mysterious "thing" to make him interesting, except that he was the original "clone", which is covered already in that film.
Is he really that interesting, or are we just intrigued by his look and his ship design and the idea of him being a bounty hunter. ? "He has mounted his hind-legs, and blown crass vapidities through the bowel of his neck."-á - Ambrose Bierce on Oscar Wilde's Lecture in San Francisco 1882 |

Downton Albee
(that may be obscure...)
Yes, 4th season of "Downton" started last night. \o/
Weirdest aspect is the actress playing Mary (who has lost a child....and now husband in last minute or so of the previous season finale).
I mean....there is playing depressed, and then there is playing depressed to a rather comic level. My God, she spends the whole show drifting wraith-like through the house with overly pale make-up on. She looks and acts like she wandered off the set of Tim Burton's "Dark Shadows" or something.
Just a truly awful performance, and I don't know why the director did not realize how badly this was executed. Completely unbelievable. Especially considering the season opens 6 months after all the horrific deaths. I just find it strange they didn't re-shoot her awful scenes. I'm real curious how it passed muster. Weird.

It's a case of half the viewership is Idolizing Worshippers of Mediocrity. The other half of the viewership is watching in Appalled Disgust. Add the 2 and that's gonna be a huge number.
And yes, the only reason the show was not outright canceled a few weeks ago is MONEY. But then A&E is owned by ABC, who if I recall must be going broke as they wanted that guarantee of viewership in order to do a "Fresh Prince" tribute to James Avery. (Oh, yeah...going broke indeed).

North Carolina: Battleground State
"Now Republicans hold the governorGÇÖs mansion and both houses of the legislature, and they are steering North Carolina far to the right: slashing taxes on corporations and the wealthy, providing vouchers to private schools, cutting unemployment benefits, refusing to expand Medicaid and rolling back electoral reforms, including voting rights.
"On one side: a right-wing government enacting laws that are changing the face of the state. On the other: citizen protesters who are fighting back against what they fear is a radical takeover. This crucible of conflict reflects how the battle for control of American politics is likely to be fought for the foreseeable future: not in Washington, DC, but state by state."

After dinner, my sister and I could only lay on her bed literally in misery. We were so freaking full after all those carrots, I don't think I've ever felt so bloated in my life, even after Thanksgiving Dinner. We were laughing though at the same time about how the carrots just never seemed to come to an end. And it felt like they were expanding in our stomachs.

But really, a lot of these reality shows are indeed scripted and manipulated.
The upcoming "Real World: San Francisco" (SF was the city way back in 1994 as well.......famously) is getting flak already from the critics there given a preview of the first few episodes.
Apparently, after the contestants arrive at SFO airport, they are seen having a casual introductory conversation.....while driving across the Bay Bridge to approach the city.
OMG. To do that....you would have to exit the airport, drive 20 miles south to the San Mateo Bridge to the East Bay, all the way up the East Bay to Oakland, fighting through that traffic, and then finally getting on the Bay Bridge and it's spectacular view of the approaching city. A good 3 hour drive, before they are having this "introductory" conversation.
It's normally a 25 minute drive directly up the freeway to the City.

Yes, indeed. As chaotically dynamic systems change (be they solid, liquid, or gas.......or the atmosphere) all kinds of radical departures towards both extreme temperature ranges, is indeed to be expected.

Oooohhhh. This is a good one.
"The real problem is that filmmakers are not thinking about the audience anymore. They're out to capture their own inner child, not ours."
"Most recently, Peter Jackson's "The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug" calls that question to mind. For what feels like an hour, Bilbo and the dwarves (like little Warhammer figures) escape one close-Smaug-call after another for reasons that seem to be more about Jackson wanting to continue playing with his big toy dragon than entertaining an audience.
"Sure, that was probably his intent, but after about fifteen minutes of justinthenickoftimes I grew desensitized with collapsing structures, singed beards, "This way!" and "Run!", rooms entered with fire licking at characters' heels, and it felt like the only person who was having fun anymore was Jackson.

And that drive has a little problem : "Brendan McMonigal, Geraint F.

Anything that gets here or anywhere going faster than light is not a part of this particular universe at all, and probably of a nature we cannot ever see or experience. In short, something spiritual. And that leads directly to scientific theism, which is it's own brand of insanity.
Besides, if they do exist as real entities in our particular universe, why would they even be remotely interested in us at all ? We have nothing for them, at all. Nothing to gain from us in any way whatsoever. And they would probably be bored anyway from all their other encounters before they get to us.
Those Discovery shows are just playing to the wishful thinking of children, and are no more real than their shows about if mermaids are real. "Chariots of the Gods" and all that nonsense.

None of these things have to do with anything that upturned and shook up our notions of mathematics and how it operates. These are all focused on specific minutea....that were only theories in the first place.
Only 2 of the 10 even involved 20th century math and science. Most are even pre-science ideas (before 1660), so there is was not any real science to disprove. Of the 2, the very originator of one of them was alive to actually call his own theory his biggest blunder.
The 2nd (cold fusion) had not been accepted even as theory before the quack released his "results". No embarrassment to science here at all.
Kryptik Kai wrote:This list is my favorite - though perhaps not for the reason you might expect. Its because number 9 is actually WRONG. It talks about how Aristotle believed that heavier objects fell faster but Galileo came along and used experiments to show that "gravity accelerated all objects at the same rate". This much is true, but his experiments were inaccurate, as the heavier objects were in fact falling faster. Why? Air resistance. All the experiments and the math were telling them that everything fell at the same rate, but they weren't taking air resistance into account. Any skydiver today will testify to objects falling at different speeds. This is also why (I can't remember his name right now) an astronaut dropped two objects on the moon and watched as they both impacted at the same time, because it was the first time they had a zero atmosphere environment with gravity to test it (the only scenario where Galileo is correct).
Again, absolutely not one of these involves any kind of science after 1660. Nothing to disprove. Only true information to discover.
Again, most of these involve medical science, certainly a very malleable field with lots of room already for error. Medical science does not follow the same rules as mathematics with it's carefully constructed exactitude.
It's also a great demonstration of some examples of these medical guys wanting to prove specific ideas....just because they liked them.

Shia LaBeouf announces retirement following plagiarism row
"His apologies did not succeed in appeasing ClowesGÇÖ lawyers, who have since threatened the actor with more legal action. LaBeouf took to Twitter.com on Friday to claim his GÇ£artistic integrityGÇ¥ has been attacked and as a result he has decided to turn his back on his career."
I'd personally like to give him an honorary Oscar for Worst Actor of All Time, especially for whatever that "performance" was in Transformers.

The mechanical similarities of what went down are too similar to what went on with Nixon, the stink will never rub off. His insistence on saying "I'm not a bully" is just too reflective of "I am not a crook".
Also, I don't think he was stupid enough to fall for a pack of lies like that from his staff.
So, I guess it's gonna be President Hillary. Well thats another strike for the Republicans. I don't know how many more blunders they can suffer.
But folks in certain states admire these blunders. Makes them seem more like "real people like them". Real people...like the Duck Dynasty Krewe.
They also admire when one of these bozos filibusters Congress while reading aloud a Dr. Seuss story, and shuts down the government over the whole thing. That made Sen. Cruz more popular in Texas than ever. They worship his idiot self.
The only thing I get from their backward-ness is satisfaction in knowing that, as a gay man, I apparently have the superpower to terrify these people straight out of their minds.

Hmm... maybe we should keep politics out of LAGL...
Welp, we are not debating, just discussing minutae of a particular incident.
BUT, I disagree as it is exactly like the Nixon incident. A staff, operating on it's own, lying to the boss about their activities, or not revealing to him what they did.although in reality, there is no way they could NOT have known.
The other thing that boosts this is those bridge closures caused people in emergency situations to DIE.
Not even that happened during Watergate.
BUT.....indeed it does not appear to be so all-pervading as the Watergate scandal from the standpoint of that revealing the extent to which Nixon was wiretapping and all that. Yes indeed.
But also on that point, we do not know all that has happened.....yet. They are still reviewing those 900 pages of material right now, so I'm sure more is coming up.

OK.....I need EVE help for once.
I finally got a Bastion Mod for the old Golem, and yes, I do understand that one cannot warp or dock or anything while it is activated.
Thing is........I tested it out by just warping to a random planet and activating. Absolutely nobody was around.
As soon as it was activated, I got a red aggression timer.
Pop-up message said specifically "for aggression against another player".
I figured it was a generic warning for during the duration of the module activation. But after deactivation, I was still under that aggression timer for 2 more minutes.
Anybody have any idea at all, or is this an obvious petitionable bug ??? "He has mounted his hind-legs, and blown crass vapidities through the bowel of his neck."-á - Ambrose Bierce on Oscar Wilde's Lecture in San Francisco 1882 |

While many ppl hate Joffrey, it is honestly unfair to hate him, as his behaviour is a result of the bad paranting. Which reflects the situation of far too many children in the western world. I think that it is ok to hate him, but just remember to hate the parents as well. Because knowing he had bad parents does not make him any better

This is why PG-13 encompasses more sexual stuff and language than it was intended to originally. Because indeed an R rating means a severe cut in monetary gross.

Thing about the original was how brilliantly Peter Weller was able to emote with only his lower jaw visible. It's fairly astonishing.
This time around, we just get a disembodied voice coming out of a black mask, no nuanced performance needed.
Not one of these idiotic remakes the past 5 years has been very successful at all. Not one.

Major Possible Star Wars Casting News
I don't know (again).
I think part of what made the original trilogy better was the cast of utter unknowns except for Alec Guiness and Billie Dee Williams.
Honestly, I found the presence of Samuel Jackson, Jimmy Smits, Christopher Lee and all that just incredibly distracting. It was to no purpose and anybody could have fit those roles.

Dallas Safari Club auctioning black rhino hunting permit
"The Dallas Safari Club auctioned off a black rhino hunting permit in Namibia for $350,000, according to the club's public relations firm.
"Wealthy hunters gathered Saturday evening inside the Dallas Convention Center to bid on the rare chance to hunt one of the world's most endangered animals."
""This is the best way to have the biggest impact on increasing the black rhino population," said Ben Carter, executive director of the Dallas Safari Club." 
"Sacrificing one animal for the greater good of the endangered species is a move that critics and animal conservation groups call "perverse" and a "sad joke." "They need to be protected, not sold to the highest bidder."

Wow. Weirdly a recent movie with Russell Crowe I've never even heard of. Musta been really really bad.
I've only shut off 2 films. Michael Cimino's "Year of the Dragon". The production was already so detailed and controlled the film itself becomes boring and tedious as Cimono has his camera linger on long shots of Chinatown (NYC). Then for no reason Mickey Rourke starts giving his wife a physical pummeling in the laundry room.......for no purpose to the story at all. That was it for me.
2nd was Scorcese's "Goodfellas", with it's near record use at the time of the f-word. Even the worst of the worst gangsters and drug dealers and ex-members of freaking San Quentin, all of which I knew in those rehabs, do not talk like that at all. Certainly not to that degree. It just killed the believability for me, and became too annoying to continue the film.

Oh goodness. Can't title a movie this nowadays (I can't type it here).
Found this while looking up info on movies based on Agatha Christie's "10 Little Indians" as it was on PBS.
This is what followed:
And Then There Were None (1945)
Ten Little ******* (1949)
Ten Little Indians (TV Movie 1959)
Agatha Christie's 'Ten Little Indians' (1965)
Ten Little Indians (1974)
Ten Little Indians (1981)
Ten Little Indians (1989)
Wow. Remake nonsense is nothing new. Absolutely none of these was particularly successful either. Ever. Yet they kept going and going and going........

Was reading TV Guide's article about the Star Wars casting and came across this astonishing sentence:
"John Williams, who scored the first three films, but not the more recent prequels, will return for Episode VII."
The forum discussion on the article is pretty much about this egregious error (and the death of true journalism anymore), an error it turns out that was made on another site entirely (probably deliberately) and just cut and pasted at TV Guide.
They should be hearing from a lawyer tomorrow morning I would imagine.

I was reading this article about Episode VII detailing major story & character changes  Some people my hate me for this but I have a lot of faith in J.J Abrams, he did an amazing job with Star Trek in my opinion, however that was considered a reboot where plot changes were accepted, the series needed a face lift. This (Star Wars) however is a completely different story, episode seven will be a continuation and he CAN NOT be throwing in plot twists left and right. Especially with all the written lore and Cannon Law. Unless he is planning to reboot the whole series this is unacceptable and I feel like it will have Star Wars fans (like my self) up in arms. Which is why I am hoping this article is merely a rumour. Anyway bed here shortly G'night all

One thing I noticed about the Golden Globes....
There has been a lot of press this past year about the lack of progress for women as CEO's, the strange dearth of descent acting roles, etc etc. Much press about this from all kinds of angles including nasty things said about high heels on female CEO's and other such petty nonsense.
Honestly, last night at the Globes.....the women. The young actresses. Oh my.
These girls are not doing "their kind" any kind of service at all, publicly, to debunk this attitude.
Absolutely everyone of them, from Jennifer Lawrence, to Amy Adams..........every one of them upon winning just absolutely loses it. Panicked, unable to speak, giggly, crying..............absolute petrified terror on one case. None were able to give a descent speech.
I expected Jennifer Lawrence to collapse to the floor with "the vapors" or something. I mean really. What are these crazy, brain stopping, emotional panics when having to accept an award and give a speech (which not one could even attempt). It's seriously 19th Century "weak, feminine behavior".
The older winners like Meryl, etc. just get up there as normal and proceed, but these young, intelligent actresses just completely fall apart in the most embarrassing ways.
I just don't remember this happening especially to this degree until the past few years or so.
I just find it to be a real disservice to the advancement of women's progress. "He has mounted his hind-legs, and blown crass vapidities through the bowel of his neck."-á - Ambrose Bierce on Oscar Wilde's Lecture in San Francisco 1882 |

My dad wasn't really one to laugh at films, but Gleason had him in stitches in this one.
Jerry Reed was just so weirdly talented and a natural onscreen, it's hard to believe he started out originally on "Hee-Haw".

But it won't. The right-wing is determined to get rid of absolutely any vestige of gun limits at all. They need to be "evaluated" if you ask me.
They have practically threatened civil war over this.
(And no, I'm not one to get rid of all guns myself. But nobody has any need for something like an AK-47 (it's creator died this past week, calling his invention of it "the greatest sadness of my life").

Almost all the public mental health services and facilities are geared towards serving the poor and addicted. The rich cannot access these services themselves. You have to realize you are crazy and turn yourself in, which so rarely happens it's non-existent. When you are crazy, you can't know you are crazy. You seem perfectly fine to yourself.
And even if admitted as being a danger to themselves or others, they must be released after 72 hours (unless the condition is medically determined to be not going away).

This is kind of like telling people that flying is dangerous even though the number of crashes are very few, in comparison to total number of flights, and that the survival rate of passengers in all combined plane crashes is well over 75% if my memory serves me correctly.
Things can go wrong mechanically with airplanes all the time. Unexpected things. We all know this. And it's a completely different paradigm as an issue than the movie theater shootings.
They are occurring because of our almost complete lack of laws around gun ownership. It is very preventable, unlike tragic mechanical surprises.
So, it's better to just "be OK" with Americans slaughtering each other in public ?
Also, the airplane is incapable of "deliberate killing", unlike humans. These are not even comparable situations. "He has mounted his hind-legs, and blown crass vapidities through the bowel of his neck."-á - Ambrose Bierce on Oscar Wilde's Lecture in San Francisco 1882 |

Mayhaps we should return to the days when rich celebrities pretty much locked themselves away from the public. Wasn't that one of the perks of having money back then ?

I highly disagree. There is a reason radios were banned from movie theaters back in the late 50's (when the first tiny portable radios were introduced by SONY). People checking for sports scores were getting to be an issue in the middle of "Lawrence of Arabia".
One is at a theater having paid money to watch a movie. If one is not going to focus on the movie, why bother ? Why are you not at home streaming and not bothering anyone ?
And non-emergency phone calls.......it's NOT an emergency. It can wait. 15 years ago you couldn't even afford this device in your hand. 20 years ago they did not exist.
It just points to the problem of self-entitled behavior that has infected everything ever since social media devices were set loose.
I paid my $15 to watch a movie, not listen to other people's phone conversations. Please.
If people think not being able to make stupid phone calls in a theater is restrictive, God help them if they ever go to the symphony. You can be ejected for excessive coughing, and even repeated loud purse snapping (I kid you not).
But.....there is indeed a difference in this incident. The dude was only texting (that's not as bad at all as a phone call)........and the movie itself was not underway yet. So, indeed the perpetrator was in the wrong....and most likely mentally ill.
I just can't support phone calls during a movie. It CAN wait.

Even if the victim had been screaming at the top of his lungs into his phone during a critical point in the movie's dialogue, the perpetrator would still have been in the wrong to murder him... just saying..
Oh, well, yeah 
He should have raised a bigger stink with the management. Although the last few times I've been, the entire staff at the theater is 16 years old. Even "the manager". (This guy probably got blown off).
I don't know. Is it a good idea to have a public place where so many people gather, with the operating authority not even being an adult ?? I don't think so.

It would be highly unlikely. James Cameron has better instincts than that.
He's just about the only director with a perfect track record that's now 30 years long.
Besides, this is a rare case where the filmmaker uses mostly his own money to get these things made. (He's that loaded, the studios are just distributing).

This is about tier-cost of Internet Access for different modes of operation. They want to charge more for heavy loads like movie streaming, instead of "all in one" unlimited browsing everywhere.
In other words, if a new company comes along wanting stream movies out, they must now make a deal with their own access provider, who now can charge them more for providing that service for them.

Ultimately, you have to go back to 1964 and the Barry Goldwater campaign. That was the first organizing of the modern whack-job Neo-Conservative movement.
It was tempered a bit by the liberal social upheavals that followed in the 60's. But once Reagan got elected..............that was their ticket to ride.

I can not even remember. I am 37 to give you a gauge. Then years later, as my man crush with Johnny Depp's acting increased, it was confirmed when I realized that Depp had not been nominated once. He has been nominated 3 times since that realization, but yes the Oscar's are a joke....in my opinion. EDIT: Yes I can remember! It was about the same time that Jethro Tull beat out Metallica's Black album for MTV's Heavy Metal album of the year.
Yeah. That was an embarrassing first Grammy for Metal. Unreal.

The only thing exciting for me about the Oscars is when there is a chance of a Sci-Fi film actually winning something major.
The best opportunity ever was the 1987 nom for Sigourney Weaver best Actress for "Aliens". She barely lost to Geraldine Page (yeah....who ?) for the boring, utterly lame, pretentious, slow, adapted form a pretentious stage play "Trip to Bountiful" (and she weirdly kicked the bucket about 6 months later). It was hard to be happy for her.
This year we have the excellent "Gravity" and "Her" as Best Picture possibilities. They represent the 2-sides of SF (the action, and the thoughtful).

The funny thing about adapting stage plays to film (an idea which Kubrick abhorred. He was miffed that most films are nothing but filmed stage plays, so why bother with the film ?) is it can all go so wrong.
"August: Osage County", starring The Streep, is getting good notices, but in reality is horribly wrong and terrible.
It's played as a straight drama about a seriously obnoxious family, and plays out like like any of the other shocking dialogue comedies out there.
But the truth is, the original stage play of it..................is a Dark Comedy !
It was not adapted that way at all. It's a completely different animal. There is a lot of talk and questions being aimed at both the director and Meryl Streep for absolutely missing this obvious aspect of the play. Did they ever even see it performed before they filmed ?

TEMPEST-hardening was a standard feature in high security systems when I still wore The Uniform.
ermmmmm....sorta kinda. Late 60's TEMPEST has to do with any kind of emanations in general, but emanating from the wires.
Van Eck Phreaking has to do specifically with CRT and LCD monitor emanations, and not just the wiring itself. It's a completely different thing as LCD was not even a pipe dream back then.
That's why it was indeed a new thing when Van Eck published the first paper ever on it in 1985.
This is similar to the issue of just who invented the Internet. One can pick their favorite idea for that and give credit as has been done.

OK. "TEMPEST is a code word that relates to specific standards used to reduce electromagnetic emanations. In the civilian world, you'll often hear about TEMPEST devices (a receiver and antenna used to monitor emanations) or TEMPEST attacks (using an emanation monitor to eavesdrop on someone). While not quite to government naming specs, the concept is still the same."
So, TEMPEST is just simply the origin of the concept. Van Eck's later ideas are much more specifically about the monitors and other devices, and how to do this stuff with digital technology.
All I know is I read that lengthy passage in Cryptonomican 15 years ago and forgot about it and never heard another word. Until I was watching TV 2 days ago..........

Robocop (original only) was more about the nature of violence and our seeming obsession with violence. And how it permeates our lives. For me, it's as astute of an examination of that issue as "Clockwork Orange".

My peeve is the lack of signalling, especially for lane changes.
I finally saw someone here in Florida coming down the road I was waiting to cross on foot. They were in the right lane and made a left signal, and I couldn't believe I was seeing a Floridian actually signal a lane change.
She then made a lovely right turn glide into a parking lot.

Unless this was last month or something, you may want to get the dog checked out (but don't tell them why). Dogs absolutely do not have the enzymes that process cannabinoids, and can be quite fatal. You guys are actually lucky.

Brief return to the art discussion.........
Andy WarholGÇÖs GÇÿEmpire,GÇÖ Shown In Its Entirety
This is the film he made by shooting the Empire State building at night for 8 hours and the film is the entire thing.
I know. Even I'm unwilling to brave that.
But, it's an infamous work that I've heard about for a good chunk of my life through both cinema and art history. And this is the best writing, period, I've ever read about approaching one of those really "difficult" works of modern art. (It's not that long)
"YouGÇÖd expect that after Hour 3 or 4 of GÇ£Empire,GÇ¥ youGÇÖd be ready to slit your wrists, but the movie turns out to be gripping. If great works of art can be thought of as machines for thinking, triggering ideas by the dozen, then GÇ£EmpireGÇ¥ is a Rolls-Royce. It keeps us thinking about what film is and does, what great buildings are all about and even how and why we look at things. "

Watching Neil deGrasse Tyson chat with Bill Moyers.
He declares that Right Wing American Religious Fundamentalists are the greatest current danger to humanity and progress.
Yup.
And these whack jobs really really make it hard for me to continue to believe in "live and let live religious freedom". We may need to give that a re-think (boy, would that not stir up the hornets ?).
The religious side certainly has no concept of "live and let live" towards others. Anymore. "He has mounted his hind-legs, and blown crass vapidities through the bowel of his neck."-á - Ambrose Bierce on Oscar Wilde's Lecture in San Francisco 1882 |

I have a hard time finding that kind of thinking reasonable and measured. It sounds... religious.
It pretty much starts with the religious whackos yammering away. Then it starts affecting policy. Then they start the draining of education funds. Then comes the cuts in social services.

Our local high school here tires to teach students about the dangers of alcohol, I think they try and scare them to never touch it. I think they even have a test afterwards.
I'm shocked they do this, Especially in Florida. But then again I have never seen so many drunks and heavy drinkers than anywhere else but here.
These all-encompasing tactics never work. Ever. They didn't stop me.
Besides, just because a person drinks a lot, does not make them an alcoholic. That is not what it's about at all.
The best explanation comes from that Denzel Washington movie "Flight" about the alcoholic pilot, and at the end when he has a dramatic internal debate as to whether or not he should break sobriety and have that small bottle of vodka before his flight....
He's asked, "Why did you, against all reasonable judgement, drink it ?"
"Because. That's what alcoholics do."

Pizza Hut's Reformulated Hand-Tossed Offering Touts Artisanal Flair
"Pizza Hut is launching what it calls the biggest-ever reformulation of its most-popular pie: the hand-tossed pizza."
>>>>>>>>>> "Pizza Hut claims the pizza looks noticeably different and less formulaic. "[The new pizza] completely different," said the chain's Chief Marketing Officer Carrie Walsh, who took the post just this month. "It has imperfections. Customers definitely noticed a difference. We believe it's a game-changer.""
Trust me on this: they are just reverting to the way they actually used to do this, the first time I ever ate at a Pizza Hut in 1974, before the days of distributing pre-tossed dough and plastic, fake mozzarella.
Now, if we can just get McDonald's to actually use real meat again.......

Wow ! We can all just forget about that new Tarantino film being "The Hateful Eight".
".......canceling his recently announced HATEFUL EIGHT project due to a script leak. "
"I gave it to one of the producers on DJANGO UNCHAINED, Reggie Hudlin, and he let an agent come to his house and read it. ThatGÇÖs a betrayal, but not crippling because the agent didnGÇÖt end up with the script."
"There is an ugly maliciousness to the rest of it. I gave it to three actors: Michael Madsen, Bruce Dern, Tim Roth. The one I know didnGÇÖt do this is Tim Roth. One of the others let their agent read it and that agent has now passed it on to everyone in Hollywood."
""I gave it to three motherf***ing actors. We met in a place and I put it in their handsGǪIt's got to be the agents of either Dern or Madsen. Please name names."

Much more so than guns need banning. 'Fixing' the education system would probably save more lives, within many all causes of mortality. The anti gun lobby are trying to drop the national murder rate by 2% points to get inline with most European countries. Admirable, but me thinks there is a better way funnel funding to save more peoples lives at a much greater drop rate than 2%. *Warning: Extreme Option* Gun safety courses should be mandatory for all citizens. I also say, in an extremist fashion, that if a child gets killed by one of their own family's guns, because the adults were not cautions enough to make sure they were unattainable by their children, that the adult that is legally responsible for the gun suffers the same consequence. This would really make people start to think about truly securing their firearms. EDIT: To see how gun laws wont fix the problem read this article where an ATF agent breaks down how the guns that are used to murder are actually acquired. Very few of the options most anti-gun lobbyists support, to fix the problem, actually target they areas that guns typically come from.
The problem is that a lot of these areas where this nonsense goes on, mostly the Rural Deep South, has a gun culture so ingrained, it's hard to get any changes initiated at all.
The folks (almost "clans"...look at the Duck Dynasty lifestyle and dynamics) have now been ingrained in their way of life for over 300 YEARS in some cases, back to pre-Revolutionary War times.
It's just the culture and they will not ever listen to anybody telling them what to do in any way shape or form with their guns, even as far as safety goes.
Sad. Short of perceived "dictatorial measures", it's almost impossible to knock this kind of ingrained tradition out of a culture. "He has mounted his hind-legs, and blown crass vapidities through the bowel of his neck."-á - Ambrose Bierce on Oscar Wilde's Lecture in San Francisco 1882 |

Random McNally wrote: No offense, Slade, but gun safety courses aren't the only answer either. However, I do agree about the parents being responsible for their weapons!
In 1985, my little brother was killed in a very stupid gun accident. He and another young man went to a friend's house after school. The father of this friend kept a handgun in their dresser drawer in their bedroom. Evidently, the other two had been familiar with where the pistol was because the young man (not the owners son) removed it from the dresser drawer. Testimony said that he asked "I wonder if it's loaded?" The boy who lived in the house took the pistol from him and responded "It's never loaded. See?" He aimed the pistol at my brother and shot and killed him.
All of the boys were 15 years old. All of them had taken firearms safety training classes through the boy scouts. I was with them when they did.
Off duty paramedics were one house away and heard the shot. They responded immediately and were unable to save my brother.
The owner of the firearm began keeping it loaded due to a rash of burglaries in the neighborhood.
My parents felt that it was a stupid accident and did not press charges. However, there was a negligence that I just cannot get past by keeping a loaded weapon unsecured. Since that has happened, the boys parents have since divorced and the boy who shot my brother has lived a very difficult life. I am now an only child.
Gun safety training only goes so far. Particularly, with adolescent boys who think it's cool to mess with firearms.
That's just horrifically sad. I don't know what else to say. Words don't fit some situations. "He has mounted his hind-legs, and blown crass vapidities through the bowel of his neck."-á - Ambrose Bierce on Oscar Wilde's Lecture in San Francisco 1882 |

Oh and some hot tea for this cold Florida night. Trying to develop that winter-layer for Florida huh ?  Yup, people may laugh about our cold all they want. But after you live down here and get used to the heat (I really don't know of anyone that truly enjoys it) these cold snaps are brutal. Live in South Florida for 4 years. The first time I went to Ft. Lauderdale was in December. I was dressed in shorts, sandels and I button up shirt half open. Everyone else was in long coats, hats, gloves and still saying it was cold. It was probably 70 degrees and I was in heaven and definitely flagged as a neutral.
San Francisco pretty much hangs around 68 F for a high for most of the year, which is nice. But after about 5 years of it, we finally went up to Sonoma County for a weekend.
It's indeed cold there at night, but can get up in the 80s and 90s in the summer. I thought I was gonna die in the 85 F "heat". I had absolutely acclimated away from being used to 101 F in Houston where I had lived before.

An analysis of that Russian Double-Toilet by the man who shot the photo. Fascinating.
" "This is what $50bn gets you!" wrote a prominent anti-Kremlin activist - a reference to the alleged cost of the Sochi games."
" It seemed to remind some Russians of their youth - about toilets past, in kindergartens and schools where there were also no partitions, about basic bathrooms in Khrushchev-era Soviet apartment blocks. And perhaps most interestingly, it seemed to say something very deep about the Russian soul. About Russia's grand tradition of the collective.

"Aye, me Matey !"
"Most scholars think English-speaking Golden Age pirates spoke exactly the same as English-speaking merchant sailors of the time, since large numbers in both groups tended to be from riverfront neighborhoods around London, he said.
Many of the phrases that most people think of as pirate speech today can actually be traced back to the 1950s Disney movie Treasure Island, starring Robert Newton as fictional pirate Long John Silver (hear Newton as Silver).
"Newton's performanceGÇöfull of 'arrs,' 'shiver me timbers,' and references to landlubbersGÇönot only stole the show, it permanently shaped pop culture's vision of how pirates looked, acted, and spoke," Woodard said.
"Afterwards, Newtonesque pirates were everywhere, from Captain Hook to Captain McCallister of the Simpsons series.""

Absolutely not and that's a ridiculous assumption. And that's all it will ever be....an assumption.
It has absolutely not a thing to do with agreeing or disagreeing with her. There is disagreeing with someone because one does not like their ideas.....and there is disagreeing with someone because they are telling lies and falsehoods. Lies are not covered under free speech. This is the same as falsely yelling "Fire !" in a crowded theater. This is absolutely not protected as determined by SCOTUS.
Anyone who gets up there and spouts thousands of lies publicly over the airwaves of a major network, and if that show is lost, has plenty of other outlets they can use.
I am always open to other ideas, (and I highly resent being told I do not), but I do not abide by absolute liars. And she is lying because based on what she says, she is utterly wrong on almost every subject from top to bottom.
And my opinions about her wrong views are not based on prejudice. They are based on my personal, long term experience of my own dealing with a lot of these subjects.
Her ravings are no better and are just as dangerous as Kim Jong-Un's.
You are seriously starting to sound like a Tea Party Neo Con where instead of delving into what the real issue is, puts up a shield of "you disagree with free speech for others" and "oh yeah ?

At least I can critique art and discuss it in context of art history and culture. So there's that at least.

Now here's what's interesting (and realized only after a very long time)........
When I was working on songwriting in San Fran with an AA friend who had been in a band (Pray for Rain....they opened in Bay Area 1984 for Duran Duran.....and did soundtracks for most of Alex Cox's films "Sid and Nancy" and a track on "Repo Man". His ex-boyfriend was the sound engineer for bands like Romeo Void. Deborah Iyall was interested in working for him again.).
So......this was not a bs songwriting endeavor at all. However, I soon discovered that I had absolutely no capacity for coming up with a melody line or a "hook". Can't do it. Nope. So, it's like I know what a song should sound like and all that in my head and got good at getting my wanted sounds and stuff from the software, the song itself just doesn't have that particular detail in it. I make a good sound engineer, but I can't actually write a song per se. I realized this was similar to the inability to draw figuratively.
I'm a descent writer, but of non-fiction. I cannot think of a plot-line to save my life.
So, in all 3 of these things, I'm good at the external, even mechanical, and more abstract aspects of things, but I lack the ability to come up with a solid core. The melody line, the plot, or the drawn figure itself.
Then I'm reading books (at least 15) on Stanley Kubrick...and he has the same problem !!
He was always horrified that he could never ever think of a storyline. That's why every single one of his movies is based on a novel (excepting 2001 with its screenplay and novel being written at the same time).
But God only knows he had the capacity of bringing what he saw in his head theoretically to the screen.
I just find it really interesting, and proof that each of us has a brain that works in different and unexpected ways from others.

The Sci Fi channel did a 2 large mini series that covered the original three books. They did a bang up job in my honest opinion.
For example. There is one part of the book that is integral in the evolution of Paul's character. When him and his mother end up out on the dunes at night after they had to escape their dwellings. The original movie did not cover this small but very important part and the sci-fi channel accentuated it. It is probaly 3.5 out of 5 as the acting could be better, but it is a far cry better than the original.

I loved their decision to use gigantic photographs in the background instead of filming on desert locations. And the deliberate use of lighting effects by cinematographer Vittorio Storraro (he shot Apocalypse Now). It all adds to the strange effect of almost watching some kind of futuristic grand opera playing out.

What happens in Europe if caught driving while intoxicated ????? in the UK you get a driving ban, i think. Anyone know for sure ? What about Germany and Sweden and such ? Here it ranges from next to nothing to Draconian, state depending. In Va, on a first charge you will get time served (I believe 6 month maximum), $10,000 in lawyer fees/court costs/fines, pay for an in car breathalyzer and @ 2 years probation. He's not out of the woods yet... Moral Turpitude offenses can get you put in front of an immigration judge - and the kind of speeding he was charged with falls under that heading for the Feds. It's plausible (remotely) that it could be 'Bye-Bye-Beib Baby!'
His breathalyzer was only .014. .02 is the cutoff for those not of drinking age. There's not really much they can do.
The only reason they can get him on pot is because he told them he had smoked it. But there isn't an "amount" to charge him with.

Weird. Weird. Super-weird.
About half a block down the major street I use everyday to go anywhere, there is a Used European Auto sales place. Been there for years, probably decades. Probably about 15 guys working there, including one of my building neighbors, and I would guess about 150 import cars on the lot.
I'm always hearing the trucks pull up and idle for hours sometimes as they are loading and unloading new ones and all that. It's pretty obvious, especially as it is usually done in the early evenings after closing. One can't not be aware of it.
Anyway, I of course had walked past it yesterday about 4 PM on my way to the corner store, and all was normal with the place as usual. In other words, nothing going on of note.
This morning, I turn the corner and approach it down the sidewalk.
The lot is utterly empty. Not a car in sight. There isn't even a potato laying around.
The main building and the shops are quite boarded up on the doors and windows with plywood sheets.
It looks like it was abandoned awhile ago.
I promise you there was not the noise at all ever last night as this place was cleared out, complete with hammering of all that wood and stuff. It's literally only about 200 feet from my apartment proper.
It's just the strangest thing yet I've experienced in Flori-duh. "He has mounted his hind-legs, and blown crass vapidities through the bowel of his neck."-á - Ambrose Bierce on Oscar Wilde's Lecture in San Francisco 1882 |

It had a bunch of pastry recipes that all used the same dough, so the dough was a whole separate process.
It took a total of 48 hours to properly finish it (carefully rolling it out, folding properly, chilling for 4 hours, rolling it out, folding, chilling).

A thing of interest for fans of things "Twin Peaks" and David Lynch
Piper Laurie is having an auction today of some of her memorabilia.
Of course we know her from "Twin Peaks" and as Carrie's mother with her dirty pillows in the original "Carrie", but she goes waaaaaay back to the 30s and the Noir Femme Fatale movies as you can see on the picture.

Here's what Variety had to say about "I, Frankenstein"
"It would be premature to suggest this without consulting the archives, but GÇ£I, FrankensteinGÇ¥ might very well set some kind of record for the most expository dialogue in a single feature film, with almost every spoken exchange either relaying a convoluted backstory, outlining a nefarious scheme, or describing the actions currently taking place onscreen.
" In fact, it isnGÇÖt until approximately 92 minutes into the filmGÇÖs 93-minute running time that it even cracks its first joke, when the end credits offer GÇ£special thanksGÇ¥ to Mary Shelley. Utterly witless, listless, sparkless and senseless, this supernatural actioner makes one long for the comparative sophistication of the conceptually identical GÇ£UnderworldGÇ¥ franchise (with which it shares producers and a writer). It should struggle to show many signs of life at the box office."
"The film is also entirely devoid of humor, and so drably chaste that one canGÇÖt help but perk up at the slight glimmer of lust in TerraGÇÖs eye when she gets a look at the shirtless AdamGÇÖs stacked, stitched musculature in a low-lit bedroom. Alas, the size of this particular monsterGÇÖs schwanzstucker goes totally unexplored."

"There are no black holes" is just the by-line for the mass media to use to generate a headline for the uneducated masses.
Black Holes are still there. They are real. They just have some properties we can't exactly figure out yet.
Unfortunately, by being plastered all over CNN and everywhere else, it plays perfectly into the hands of the rapidly growing Anti-Science Movement because it perfectly sounds like physicists have given up and admitted they are wrong.
Mr. Hawking, in short, made a statement about something that absolutely cannot be explained to the masses, probably not ever, and provided just more fodder for "the opposition". Probably not his intention, but it's just too dangerous anymore to be casually spouting off statements phrased so simplistically. Too easily exploited by others.

It still blows my mind how their backup systems also went down. Now I'm no engineer but I would think a adding a gas turbine backup generator (as they are small, light and powerful) along with the standard backup systems would go a long way.
The cruise ship industry has seriously been shooting itself in the foot with ships that are just too large, trying to pack in too many people (just like the airlines did).
It's honestly just a racket anymore. And has absolutely almost no government regulations or requirements or monitoring at all.
There just is not enough money to get me on a vehicle where I'm stuck out on the ocean packed in with up to 1,000 other people with limited space.

They want to encourage people to make copies of the HD broadcast, turn them into torrents, and destroy a portion of the money they could have made off of the BD release. 
It ironically and idiotically does seem that way, no ? They do practically encourage it !
I just cannot justify the cost of cable on my fixed income. Plus the extra for HBO too. Besides, there just are not that many channels I would watch (even the ones I used to watch way back when suck now....you know the ones).
It's just a lot more rational for me to spend $50 once a year for the Blu. One month of cable is a lot more than that. "He has mounted his hind-legs, and blown crass vapidities through the bowel of his neck."-á - Ambrose Bierce on Oscar Wilde's Lecture in San Francisco 1882 |

This idiotic statement accompanies almost every article about tonight's State of the Union speech:
"Tonight's speech is viewed by some as a test of whether he can rebuild his standing."
The statement should read:
"...of whether the fractured, extreme Right Wingnuts in Congress will let him rebuild his standings." They blocked quite publicly (and idiotically) every single point of his agenda last year. All of it. Without exception.
It's despicable.

I was really enjoying it until I started thinking about what kind of musical acts would be at a Woodstock '14 if they were to have one... when I realized it would likely be Bieber, Miley, Ke$ha, etc... I got sad 
"Get Lucky" is the only "charting" pop song I have even liked from the past 15 years. It's just all bad.
I'll stick to my electronica, prog house, and "ancient infatuations". It's more dignified at least.
I think I'm of the first generation of old fogies that when we say "it's bad music" we really mean it. Not just because we don't understand it or are frightened of it. Most parents back when wouldn't even let their kids buy Beatles albums (my older sisters included).
I've always been into the new and the forefront. Always. Not the past decade though.
Edit: I keep forgetting about my love of Hybrid. Even my mom and dad in their 80s liked them. Maybe Hybrid needs to get their next album out after 4 years so far, so I'll quit forgetting them in these conversations.

Voting patterns are much more influenced by population density in a given district than State X vs State Y. Areas of high population density go blue, low pop density goes red (so, cities vs rural). When people are crammed into a tight area it tends to help them see those who don't belong to their social group as people rather than stereotypical archetypes. Its much easier to believe that "minority XYZ" is doing a terrible thing and destroying the country if you never actually see people who belong to that minority.
Actually, it has to do with the more rural areas where the churches have a much stronger presence than in the cities.
Don't think that preachers do not politik from the pulpit. Oh they very much do indeed.
That Right Wing therefore has built in organizational institution that makes for easy dissemination of ideologies, and it HAPPENS EVERY SINGLE SUNDAY !

That wayward, threatening remarks from that Congressman to that Reporter was probably well planned indeed.
It's ultimate purpose was just to generate the story itself. It was the perfect fodder to distract from the State of the Union Speech by Obama.
And indeed......CNN and FOX and et al, are pumped full of stories about the threat, and actual coverage and analysis of what Obama proposed is now dead and buried on page 10.

Here is the original article
And a follow-up
I hope it's in one of those as that's all I posted.

But it's still baffling everyone how that lot was drained so absolutely silently in the middle of the night.
Seriously, they would have needed 7 or 8 of those huge 18-wheel things that carry cars, and they can't be parked on the major street, so they would have been wrapped around our side street, idling constantly and all that. When they have just one of these pull up to deliver cars, even during the day, I'm quite aware of it.
Even the psychotic dogs 3 houses down were not barking (that wakes everybody up) and I've known them to bark for hours staring at nothing.

With technology as easy to attain now a days musicians are able to play what and how they like. True musicians no longer have to ***** themselves to the producers to get their music made. The real musicians hit the road, produce their own albums, sell them at shows and keep a large portion of their 'profit'. When they play the right club, at the right time and someone sees them, they are much more capable of empowering themselves as they are more seasoned than their counterparts in the past. They are then much more capable negotiating contracts that are much more beneficial to them than their counterparts in the past.
I think we were referring to the horrific garbage that makes what used to be known as the Top 10 in the Before Times.
Yes, there is tons of fantastic music out there, more than in my day. But what catches the public and sells to them, is just a pathetic waste I can't be bothered with.

The real reason that us Liberals will always be lagging in "power" is, unlike the NeoCons who are all in mental and philosophic lockstep with each other (you're either with us, or against us"), us Liberals will never ever agree on anything.

Biggest raging arguement almost ever in the world of Architecture involves the MoMA decision to demolish it's attached Folk Art building (only about a decade old) and move it has some legitimate points on both sides, IMHO

Bieber told police in Miami Beach that he had taken "medications for anxiety" that night but that he did not know what it was or whether he had a prescription for it. "Well, my mom takes care of all that stuff for me," the police report quoted him as saying.
The preliminary toxicology report on Bieber's urine sample said it tested positive for "metabolite of THC," which indicates ********* use, and alprazolam, the generic name for the prescription sedative Xanax.
At the police station, Bieber failed a series of sobriety tests, including "horizontal gaze," "Romberg balance," "walk and turn," "finger to nose" and "one-leg stand" tests, the police report said.
When Bieber was asked to estimate when 30 seconds passed, he failed by thinking a half-minute was over in 17 seconds, the report said.
He had "great difficulty" completing the Breathalyzer test, the officer wrote. He "continously forgot basic instructions."
Bieber told the officer "that he was blowing as hard as he could, and told me to look at how red his face was," he wrote. "He advised he was blowing into the hose like he blows into his trumpet. He was obviously just holding his breath initially and pretending to blow" "He has mounted his hind-legs, and blown crass vapidities through the bowel of his neck."-á - Ambrose Bierce on Oscar Wilde's Lecture in San Francisco 1882 |

That dude's statement "Architecture is not Art" is not going over very well:
""We don't collect buildings" and that "we take architecture seriously, but it isn't art."GÇöare not only outrageous and inflammatory, but also incorrect, and a sad lifting of the veil on what was once a meaningful institution (MoMA) that supported the essence of contemporary architecture."
"In fact MoMA's Department of Architecture & Design DOES collect architecture as drawings, models, and fragments of buildings, since Philip Johnson began the department in 1932. Historically MoMA even commissioned full size modern houses, such as Marcel BreuerGÇÖs House in the Museum Garden (1949) and a series of pre-fab houses ironically built in the parking lot adjacent to the Folk Art Museum for Home Delivery: Fabricating the Modern Dwelling (2008)."
"Also, in the past 30 years, architects from Frank Gehry (Disney Concert Hall) to Zaha Hadid have very consciously blurred the distinction between architecture and sculpture, making Lowry's words seem nothing less than those of a cultural Philistine."

Satires are not dramatically deep by default. They are a subsection of Comedy. "Troopers" cannot be associated with any sort of drama comparisons to other films, as satire makes absolutely no dramatic aspirations at all. That's like trying to say the "science in Star Wars sucks compared to Star Trek". Well yeah, Star Wars is not even remotely science fiction. It's pure fantasy, and therefore cannot be held to that.
"Starship Troopers" was a satirical take on the power of the propaganda machine of fascist governments that don't appear that way on the surface (remember, Rico had to serve militarily before becoming a "citizen" and able to even vote). Everyone looks absolutely squeaky-clean supermodel perfect.
Paul Verhoeven even went so far as to base around 60% of the shot compositions on the pacing and stylings of the films of Leni Reifenstahl with near perfect imitation.
In short, it's a brilliantly "fake" propaganda film and widely considered the most subversive blockbuster-budgeted movie ever made.
I like to consider his previous "Robocop" as the movie that showed how easily a privatized security force can be exploited by the powers that be. And "Troopers" as a later picture of that society in the much further future.

Tarpedo wrote:I thought "Starship Troopers" book supposed to be futuristic research and model for militaristic society. It seems Verhoeven dumbed it down.
Well, it's a propaganda film made by the very culture depicted in the film. That was the idea at least in the filmmaker's approach.
The book........is a bit problematic. The soldiers in it wear huge mechanical robotic armor when in battle, kinda like those robo-suits in "Avatar". Special effects in 1997 just were not up to handling that for hundreds of onscreen actors, and building them all would have been impractical.
The main character in the book is quite clearly and obviously "of color". Notice the film has not one person of color in it at all. And that's by design in it's imitation of Reifenstahl's films.
Also, in the opening scene of the book, this "Trooper" is looking in a mirror and putting on his make-up. I'm not kidding. It upset a lot of people when published in the 50's, and unfortunately probably would not have gone over well or convincingly in 1997.
So, they just used some basic elements from Heinlein's novel, but had no real intentions of making an equivalent film to it. It's a completely different animal.
Thank goodness Heinlein had already passed. He would have had a fit at the fascistic ideas that replaced what he called his Libertarian philosophy. But really, that point isn't ultimately that different.

What an amazing connection. I'm impressed.
emperorreagan Rus Archer GÇó 4 hours ago
In an essay by Ursula K. Le Guin, she speculated that reading hit its peak sometime in the mid 19th to 20th century and went into decline by the 1960s. She noted, in part, to support that speculation that the standards children have been held to in school have long been in decline.
I would say that the ability to read and comprehend the Bible went into decline as the standards taught in schools fell. Coincidentally, the notion that the Bible is inerrant ( - incapable of being wrong ) really took off in the late 70s/early 80s in conservative circles, reversing the trend where people were regarding things like the great flood or creation story as legends or myths. So that's where I would personally pinpoint as the moment that Christianity jumped the shark with respect to the Bible - because I don't think you can read the Bible and see it as inerrant.
She also notes in the same essay that reading declined as other things replaced it as social currency - you could talk about the latest TV show at work rather than a book.
So to build off the same theme, the Bible also has lost its social currency as people both lack the reading skills to process it and have replaced it with other things. Sure, people can still quote some ****** verses, usually out of both the textual and historical context. But what really marks Christianity as practiced today is televangelists, Christian themed music and TV, mega-churches, talk radio, etc. Christianity ceased to be tied to the Bible (in spite of the Bible taken as inerrant!) and is tied to a dog and pony show.

Crack, coc**ne, m*th....they are all instantly addicting. I had at least tried them all for extremely brief periods, during which there was no more to be possibly obtained. The effect is immediate, and an immediate and strong urge for more is unavoidable.
Ones "mood" when taking this crap has nothing to do at all with how "down" or whatever someone is the next day. You will feel horrific, no matter what. There is no correlation there at all.
Yes, ****** is the worst withdrawal of all and absolutely. But that's not really justifiable as a "defense" for the uppers. They will both eventually kill you, equally.
And the thing that alarmed me most is how quickly the meth variants destroy mental capacity and alter personality because of all the chemical changes and everything. Anyone who is on any of these things for any length of time is going to be a different person at the other end of the trip.
I've had to let go of so many friends in San Fran who played around "innocently" with the stuff for a few years, and not one did not wind up in a rehab. And the personality changes are not good at all. My best friend from Houston had moved there, and got into this situation. And even 5 years later after all his treatments, he was just such a completely different person from the one I had known for 15 years, it was terrible. I just could no longer be his friend at all.
And all of them eventually relapsed and and just disappeared. No idea where they are.
....and self-control has absolutely nothing to do with lowering the chances of addiction. Self-control is not even a part of the picture. If one is a true addict, nothing but nothing will stop you. Drug addicts need and take drugs, and alcoholics drink, and will drink until the rent money is gone. It's what they do. It's why they are called what they are.
The biggest shock from a fallacy I got in all those programs was that self-control has nothing to do with Recovery at all in any way. I know, I always heard, "But if you just got more willpower, you can stop". Willpower involves a "want" for something strengthening, but alcoholics and addicts who are still using cannot imagine ever not doing what they do. And every counselor out there will say indeed that Willpower has never sobered up a single person ever.

That being said when I read the book the only thing that made me even think it was a book for kids was because the book was short and it was about kids. Most children are not ready to actually understand the underlying tones that Card was trying to get across. There are exceptions, but I really do not think it is a book that was meant to be directed towards children.....by the writer at least.

I have not read the book and find it odd that the movie that was presented came from a book that pushed libertarianism. Libertarianism is a liberal philosophy where fascism is typically conservative. The movie definitely presented a conservative fascist government. That being said fascism can be liberal in basis as well. *paraphrase of Satre* I would rather live under a liberal fascist government, of which you may find in America's future, versus the conservative fascism found under Mussolini.

And don't forget that Paul Verhoeven himself survived the occupation of the N's of his native Belgium during WWII, where he of course saw "many horrific things" as a child, and gave him a descent taste of living under a fascist regime.
Obviously the quick and graphic violence in all of his films, even "Basic Instinct" is a sort-of "working it out" for him. I'd probably be twisted up a little that way too.
So, he had his own idea for a film, and Heinlein's novel just set up an outline to use, and that's about all. "He has mounted his hind-legs, and blown crass vapidities through the bowel of his neck."-á - Ambrose Bierce on Oscar Wilde's Lecture in San Francisco 1882 |

Anyways, believe me. Edible cannabis products of every possible food variant you can think of have been made legally in Cali for over a decade. And they are strong. Ridiculously so.
But I had my fair share of times where a tremendous amount was eaten. It doesn't really make a difference though. Eating or smoking beyond the real high doesn't make one higher. The receptors for it are all filled up.
And in all that time I have absolutely never ever heard of anybody actually getting physically sick from the cannabis. Ever. Nobody, but nobody.
But, this seems to happen at high school parties occasionally, and even events like this one.
I can't help but think that, yeah, there was unfortunately unwanted cannabis in those dishes, but really there has to be something else in it that is making people Emergency Room sick. Cannabis really does not have that capability. Not on it's own. In one incident people were complaining of fever. Obviously there was a food poisoning involved.
I just always find this particular story, when it comes up, to be awfully specious. And you never hear about it happening in large urban areas where even more is consumed.

You may or may not have heard of the infamous Pruitt-Igoe Housing Project, but we've all seen pictures:
ugh
"The complex was designed by architect Minoru Yamasaki. Living conditions in PruittGÇôIgoe began to decline soon after its completion in 1956. By the late 1960s, the complex had become internationally infamous for its poverty, crime, and segregation. Its 33 buildings were demolished with explosives in the mid-1970s, and the project has become an icon of urban renewal and public-policy planning failure."
That's all great, but what's super-weird is that architect's only other well known project was the World Trade Center Towers.

Actually, Edgar Rice Burroughs original novel "John Carter of Mars" was indeed the first of it's kind and coalesced what we later call major genre elements. So, it's all these other productions, including Star Wars that have been ripping off Burroughs' John Carter for well over 102 years now.
The ultimate insult though was as the film's release date was approaching, and Disney panicked and changed the title to the unhelpful and idiotic "John Carter".
The reason being that some foolish consultant told them "Women and girls don't go to Mars movies."
Grrr.
So really, the public unfamiliar with the work had no context or any understanding of what the film is about. Not even that it was set on another planet.
This is indeed a case of micromanagement and over thinking of marketing shooting a $200 million film in the head. "He has mounted his hind-legs, and blown crass vapidities through the bowel of his neck."-á - Ambrose Bierce on Oscar Wilde's Lecture in San Francisco 1882 |

Stupid stupid stupid.
So the Today Show has this guy on discussing all those awful Superbowl ads, and right in the middle of it he brings up an ad that apparently had a disco soundtrack.
He actually said, "This ad didn't work at all because absolutely nobody likes Disco."

Good God. I believe the hugest song and album of the year was this thing called "Get Lucky".

Jodorowsky's "Dune"
"JODOROWSKY'S DUNE documentary made a huge impact on the festival circuit last year, and is one that I can't wait to see. It covers the early production of filmmaker Alejandro Jodorowsky's (EL TOPO, THE HOLY MOUNTAIN) doomed attempt at adapting Frank Herbert's classic sci-fi novel Dune, back before production was turned over to David Lynch, creating the version that we all know today."
Yeah, I remember reading about this in Starlog magazine back in the day, with a few pictures of HR Giger's designs for the film as illustration.
Thank God this thing was not made though. If you've never seen a Jodorowsky film, you are not missing a thing. Unbelievably surreal and utterly impenetrable in the worst experimental film ways possible. I could not even make it half an hour through "El Topo". When the main character started dining on his own sh**, that was it for me.
This would have led to an even more despised version of "Dune", instead of the "half amazing, "half awful" version from David Lynch. Probably would have even killed any possibility of that much later SyFy version.

It's just another iteration upon the ideas of Mr. Ponzi, with no better results. All modern currencies does not have any material base behind them - governments print them at will in trillions and just disperse among elites. I.e. modern currency is materialized will and wishes - not some kind of gold equivalent, but pure imagination. No wonder crypto-currencies spread like wildfire - they are exactly the same as our "traditional" currencies in their present state, product of imagination.
But those governments act as a controlling and moderating entity, no matter what the base "format".
Without that protection, it's ultimately a losing proposition mainly from exploitation and covert manipulation with absolutely no guiding force.
And the real "controling entity" will more than likely eventually make off with all the funds, and good luck trying to get your money back.
Look at what happens even when there is monitoring and regulation. It's ultimately nothing but a formula for disaster.

Examples: in US "controlling entity" has printed god knows how many trillions (2? 3? 7?) to bail out banks in 2008; in my country "controlling entity" devalued its currency by 10% in 3 weeks of January, in 1998 there was 300% devaluation in less than 1 month (value dropped 4x) - i.e. they've stole 3/4 of all money in 1998 and 10% in January.
That's all well and true.

"Unfortunately the internet, in its bottomless need for drama and people, in their bottomless need to feel superior to other people, have focused on this part of her letter in which Dylan calls out Diane Keaton, Alec Baldwin and Cate Blanchett (and other celebrities who have worked with Woody Allen) and we start to get pieces like 'Ethical Dilemmas hang over the Oscars' or a wave of tasteless punditry pieces like 'Does this hurt Cate Blanchett's Oscar chances' (and no I will not link to any of those tacky articles). Dylan also (indirectly) calls out all people who have ever loved a Woody Allen movie, which is really just a step way too far."
"Many people on the internet this week have been, even possibly without realizing it, asking for a world in which we accept that all allegations are true (no need for laws, investigations, courts, professionals to determine veracity) and for which the result should be banishment from society and/or imprisonment. But this scorched earth desire would result in an ugly world that I think none of us would be comfortable living in and it would most certainly be bereft of a healthy artistic culture...
"Let me explain. Do we really want to go back to the McCarthy era mentality of the blacklist? Once you begin to banish or shame artists because of professional relationships, friendships, biological relations, associations and belief systems including "innocent until proven guilty", who is ever going to escape the all consuming fire of it? Do we also have to condemn their fans as Dylan indirectly suggests? "
"If Diane Keaton and Cate Blanchett should be publicly dissed for being friends or professional colleagues with Woody Allen and if Mia Farrow should be publicly shamed for staying friends with Roman Polanski and for having a brother who is in jail for child molestation, where do we stop? Where do we draw the line? When do we stop compounding the tragedy? Do we really want a world where no one who has ever been accused of a crime is allowed to have any friends or colleagues or family who can risk being associated with them?"
"I hope I will be less lonely in the place of choosing to reserve judgment and leave the legal system and the families involved to sort this all out privately (not that some of them don't want it to be public) without the ignorant chorus of people (including me) who weren't there and who know much less about everything to interpet anything they don't like as "garbage" and the rest as "perfect truth" adding more fuel to this very sad bonfire.

It's a tragedy, and the fear of this happening probably makes a lot of decision making as biased. Instead of going for the really groundbreaking ideas that are risky, decisions will tend more towards the safe and established.

yes. Yes. YESSSSSSSS !!!!!
Finally an interesting announced film !
High Rise
What a brilliant novel it was. Read it around 5 times or so !
This is the same production company that was behind David Cronenberg's NC-17 adaptation of Ballard's "Crash".
The story is fascinating:
"The building seems to give its well-established tenants all the conveniences and commodities that modern life has to offer: swimming pools, its own school, a supermarket, high-speed elevators. But at the same time, the building seems to be designed to isolate the occupants from the larger world outside, allowing for the possibility to create their own closed environment.
Life in the high-rise begins to degenerate quickly, as minor power failures and petty annoyances over neighbours escalate into an orgy of violence. The high-rise occupants divide themselves into the classic three groups of Western society: the lower, middle, and upper class, but here the terms are literal, as the lower class are those living on the lowest floors of the building, the middle class in the centre, and the upper class at the most luxurious apartments on the upper floors.
Soon, skirmishes are being fought throughout the building, as floors try to claim elevators and hold them for their own, groups gather to defend their rights to the swimming pools, and party-goers attack "enemy floors" to raid and vandalize them. It does not take long for the occupants of entire building to abandon all social restraints, and give in to their most primal urges.
The tenants completely shut out the outside world, content with their new life in the high-rise; people abandon their work and family and stay indoors permanently, losing their sense of time. Even as hunger starts to set in, many of the characters in the novel still seem to be enjoying themselves, as the building allows them a chance to break free from the social restrictions of modern society and toy with their own dark urges and desires. And as bodies begin to pile up and the commodities of the high-rise break down, no one considers alerting the authorities.
The tenants of the high-rise abandon all notions of moral and social etiquette, as their environment gives way to a hunter/gatherer culture, where humans gather together in small clans, claim food sources from where they can (including the many dogs in the building, and eventually even the other tenants), and every stranger is met with extreme violence."

Man, on the rare occasion I get hit with one of CCP's coding bugs, it's always weird and amazing.
So, for the past few days, whenever Infinitio would warp in the Noctis to a Mission site that Krix had cleared, upon arrival at the site Infinitio would crash to a Windows Runtime Error. Restarting his client, and all was well from then on. Even if he gate warped to the next mission room.
After this happened 5 times in 2 days, I realized this happened absolutely only to Infi's client and only when he was approaching a mission site initially. It would never happen again, until Krix and Infi were doing another mission entirely. And yes, Infi would crash upon initial approach.
Once after restarting him and autowarping, I warped him out of the site to a planet...and then back. Nothing happened. IT will only happen on his first approach to a mission site and never again.
So, on day 4 here I finally Google and go thread searching. And indeed there is a quickly growing threadnaught about this, that was exact in situation, but for some having it happen upon approach to gates and station too, but same effect and Runtime error.
Then, later in the thread I start seeing the word Noctis. Over and over. Apparently.................this is indeed only happening while flying a Noctis !!!!!! As Infinitio does all too well.
Just unbelievable. Specific reproducible Windows Runtime Error, only doing specific approaches to grids, and only in a Noctis ! Good one CCP  At least it's being looked at now.

Ouch. We lose Arthur Rankin of Rankin/bass Productions.
"Rudolph" "Frosty", etc. So many formative childhood memories.
Rankin Bass even did the animated "Hobbit" and the follow up to Bakshi's first half of LOTR. Which of course gave us the hilariously campy song "Where There's a Whip, There's a Way!"

I've read a lot, and this is the best breakdown and discussion of "The Shining" I've encountered yet.
"That The Shining, specifically, has the remarkable quality of inviting speculation about its themes and intent while repelling anything you throw at it. Watching the film again, I was struck by how much it frustrated my attempts to interpret it. Formally and thematically, itGÇÖs such a weird, disorienting, elusive vision that for me to offer up my own big, sweeping theory would be akin to speculating about a Rorschach blot."

Never had a problem with alcohol myself. I just have some rum or beer every once in a while and never get wasted on it. I don't really dont see any problems with that.
Apparently, only in countries that are primarily caucasian (and they don't know why) continue to drink plain milk past childhood.
It's not really good for you at all. Lactose intolerance and all that. And it can cause other health problems stemming from that. There's a lot of info out there really.
For me it's obvious why. I remember being absolutely bombarded with milk ads as a child. And even 15 years ago there was that massively eerily porpagandistic ad campaign "Got Milk ?" featuring adults and athletes with milk mustaches and all that.
It's just 2 of the most evil American Industries working in collusion: the Meat Industry, in collusion with the dairy industry.

Processed dairy like cheese and ice cream do not have the same effects. A lot of the dangerous enzymes and such don't make it to the final products. Some cream for the coffee is fine too. It's the whole milk that's dangerous. "He has mounted his hind-legs, and blown crass vapidities through the bowel of his neck."-á - Ambrose Bierce on Oscar Wilde's Lecture in San Francisco 1882 |

Funny how things can flip-flop in expected results.
"Monuments Men" is getting raked over the coals for being so darned ordinary and unambitious despite it's novel story premise.
"The Lego Movie" almost has nothing less than solid 4-star reviews. A true delight and smart and intelligent and funny, and not what anyone was assuming it would be at all.

I have no idea where the nearest sonic is.
They tend to be almost exclusively in rural areas. It was the first fast food we got in my little town in Arkansas, around 1973 IIRC.
Even when they are near a city like Dallas, they tended to be in the way way out burbs, or even ex-urbs as they were calling them for awhile.

Tbh i prefered the models. They looked more real if you ask me.
What's interesting about watching a movie about teenagers from before 1995, like "Pretty in Pink" or "Heathers", is just how much the kids in the movies actually seem engaged with the world and the people around them. It's very hard to miss. That could be the case, or is it more a rose tinted lenses case. Could we be having this conversation in 1995 and saying "watch movies from 1975s and see how engaged these kids are" not like today with their Game boys and Starfox!

Hollywood may be mostly lame now, but it sure was not in the early 70s.
While making "Myra Breckenridge" and "Beyond the Valley of the Dolls":
"His solution was to insert a number of black-and-white vignettes from FoxGÇÖs old movies into the most colorful action of Myra Breckinridge. For the fellatio moment, Sarne found an old Fox movie in which the young Shirley Temple milks a goat and squirts herself in the face by mistake. He plugged that old gem into the Myra/Myron blowjob scene, and nearly laughed himself into a coma.
"The scene was also a favorite for the preview audience of 3,000 gay men in San Francisco, where Fox chose to test Myra Breckinridge. According to Sarne, the screening was everything he, Brown, and Zanuck could have hoped for. Then little Shirley milked her goat.
GÇ£At that point the f***ing theater exploded. It went, GÇÿBoom!GÇÖ like an atom bomb,GÇ¥ said Sarne. GÇ£Zanuck is holding his sidesGÇöhe can hardly sit in his seat GǪ the gays were loving itGÇöeverybody was loving it.GÇ¥
A few days later, back in Los Angeles, Zanuck was no longer laughing. He told Sarne the entire blowjob scene had to be cut, because President Richard M. Nixon had personally phoned his father, Darryl Zanuck, to complain. It seemed that little Shirley Temple had grown up to be a delegate to the United Nations. GÇ£And that itGÇÖs got to go,GÇ¥ Zanuck demanded.

Shirley Temple at least lived a full and satisfying life that's for sure. She was still fairly popular when I was a child as her movies were shown on TV on Saturday afternoons and such.
But my favorite story involving her is the infamous "Heidi Game" during an NFL football game in the late 60's:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heidi_Game
"The Heidi Game led to a change in the way professional football is shown on network television; ever since then, games have been shown to their conclusion before evening programming begins.
"The experience also led television networks to take steps to ensure that network personnel would be able to communicate with each other under similar circumstances in the future: special telephones (dubbed "Heidi phones") were installed that connected through a separate telephone exchange. In 1997, the Heidi Game was voted the most memorable regular season game in U.S. professional football history."

Yeah, the TV networks especially still have not gotten out of a 1975 modus operandi.
Despite the fact that we can now watch whatever, whenever, TiVo, et al, they still program major shows together at the same time. This year, the Golden Globes were on at the same time as 3 or 4 other highly advertised big event broadcasts including the season premiere of Downton Abbey.

The brand new American Experience on PBS on "Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid" is fascinating.
I always had assumed their death at the end of the 1972 film was accurate. But no.
The film ends with Butch and Sundance leaving their shelter and running out together in a blaze of glory, in which they are gunned down by about 50 waiting Pinkerton agents. The film freeze-frames the two of them which then morphs into a yellowed tint-type photo of the very scene, hanging framed on a wall.
I think the director chose to do that, as that particular image is the very moment the Old Wild West ceased to be. With their deaths, there was no more of it to be had.
In reality, they remained in their shelter during the big shootout, but the Pinkerton's were too cautious to investigate until daylight. They died in a murder-suicide pact, with Sundance shooting Butch, then turning his gun on himself.

Well, they certainly tried this past season to resurrect the "magic" of Robin Williams and Michael J Fox (yawn) in TV shows where they originally started. I mean, how unoriginal in concept, and both have been rightly removed from our screens already and thankfully.
It's never been a particularly innovative industry (most of the really popular dramas in the 50's were literally just filmed stage plays in a form recognizable to anyone, back to the 1600s)
The executives fundamentally hated Star Trek and kept insisting Roddenberry make it more for children like the higher rated Lost in Space. This was echoed years later by the new Paramount executives who took over during "Enterprise" and spent most of their time insisting that that a different boy band be featured on the show every week (not kidding).

It actually highlights a lack of quality control and testing not happening at all at some level within the development process.
and this has been of increasing frequency over the past 4 years I've been here.
They should not technically need to patch except infrequently. They are "relying" on it instead of proper coding in the first place.
It hints also of folks being overworked, (what with technically 4 games in simultaneous development). It's really starting to show the cracks.

Indeed the fixes are important. They had better be. But the increasing frequency of them points to other more grave issues, as outlined above.
My god it sounds like you guys think I'm stupid or something in not understanding the need for patches or something ? I don't know.
Why is CCP relying on "throw it out there and see what's broken about it" method of development. It smacks of nothing but EA and Blizzard, and I don't need this game going there.

Where to begin.....
So I finally drag myself out of sheer laziness to the KFC up the road, something I have not done in at least 5 years (KFC that is).
So, I had a new coupon with me that clearly states on itself "3 Extra Crispy Tenders, 1 massed potato, 1 biscuit". I present that and say, "I'll do this special, and an additional small coleslaw please."
So she hands me my receipt, and I notice it only reads "3 tenders, coleslaw, biscuit". 
I stop her and say, no, I wanted the special, with a coleslaw in addition," as I stated". So she has to re-credit the ATM purchase and re-ring the whole thing.
So it's all done with both mashed potatos and coleslaw, and I'm almost out of the parking lot and realize she had forgotten utterly even mentioning any kind of dipping sauce, of which I of course have no idea what kinds they have anymore. So I had to go back in and wait for her to finish taking a huge order from the next guy, and finally after much ado, walked out with my brainlessly simple order.
Good God lady..........this is your self portrait.
I won't be darkening their door for a long time, if this kind of thing is too "complicated" for them. Unbelievable. Why do folks put up with it ?

Stuff like that is gimmicky and very hard to display. Art belongs in a museum imo unless you build a wing specifically for it.
The world of art and antiques actually categorizes things like that as "priceless", but not because of what we usually associate with priceless.
There are just some objects that are too problematic for normal preservation and display, mainly for being so large that a proper display space is nearly impossible, or even more expensive than the object would be.
Most famous in the world of fine art is James Rosenquist's painting "F-111". MoMA specifically built a room big enough to hang it. Apparently there is no private house or anything that is capable of hanging t proper anywhere.
These are certainly odd curious cases. "He has mounted his hind-legs, and blown crass vapidities through the bowel of his neck."-á - Ambrose Bierce on Oscar Wilde's Lecture in San Francisco 1882 |

the first Star Wars prequel i didn't think it was that bad, but people seem to hate it.
It's about the worst of the worst film ever made. Here's why. It's in 7 parts about 1:15:00 long total. Get ready to laugh at all the "Silence of the Lambs" references. (The narrative critic is supposed to be Mr. "It's puts the lotion on it's skin").
Get ready to laugh at the ineptitude. It's one of the funniest things I've ever watched, besides being an excellent breakdown of what all went wrong. It violates every single rule of scriptwriting an filmmaking ever.
There is no character with any appeal whatsoever to keep interest in anything happening. Amidala just monotonously stares at things. Endless discussions involving political yammering that make no sense to even adults....and Lucas claims he was making a children's film, which just sounds frankly delusional and insane in how little there is in it to appeal to children.

My favorite though is the one that looks old and ripped up, for the re-release of the film as "A New Hope" (it didn't say that anywhere at first....20th Century Fox thought the public would be confused by starting with Part IV).

Phantom Menace doesn't have nearly enough of that. And when it does, towards the end, they are caused by a small child piloting a ship he can't possibly know how to, and is a character absolutely not old enough to have any idea what's at stake at all.

Its the only way to make any logic out of it. Either that or Lucas is a hack whose only been kept afloat thanks to other directors vis Empire and Jedi. Or his work with Spielberg.
The most telling in that youtube analysis is the look on Producer Rick McCallum's face when he says "yes, every frame of film is packed with effects and creatures and things to look at".......which was done to a degree that was simply absurd. Watch the utterly chaotic confusion during the arena fight in "Clone Wars". It just blurs down to a bunch of chaotic motion with no tension or excitement at all.
Anyway, Mr. McCallum's face has this look of "We are terrified to tell this guy that anything he wants to show is a bad idea." Lucas surrounded himself with people who would never dare say no.

Remembered one more thing about "Phantom". The opening crawl quite clearly states:
"While the congress of the Republic endlessly debates this alarming chain of events, the Supreme Chancellor has secretly dispatched two Jedi Knights, the guardians of peace and justice in the galaxy, to settle the conflict."
It's made quite clear during the first 2 films that Obi-Wan is NOT a Jedi Knight yet.

Got a promoted Tweet from a Florida Republican running for November election, so I "chimed in" about how I feel. Then checked the list of responses and it's a mile long and not ONE Tweet positive towards the GOP. It's all hostility indeed.
Somewhere.....there is a really big ruse going on. I can't wait till it breaks open for all to see.
update: ROFL ROFL He has retracted that Tweet. It's just gone out of his feed utterly.
That didn't go over too well.
And all he asked in it was, "Florida needs more conservative leadership. Follow me if you agree."
Response: "we've had conservative leadership for years yet we have 1 of the slowest recoveries & 1 of the nations lowest income levels." "Need more info. Is this all we get?

Disappointed to discover that Alfonso Cuaron's and JJ Abrams' new TV series "Believe" is about:
...."a girl with the powers of levitation and telekinesis and the abilities to control nature and see the future."
Didn't telekinesis and associated hoary ideas die out with bad late 1970's made-for-tv movies ???

the first Star Wars prequel i didn't think it was that bad, but people seem to hate it. I think it is because we grew up with it. People who grew up with the original 3 movies are the ones who dislike the 3 prequels. LIkewise we will most likely dislike the new one.
No. That has not a thing to do with it.
Seriously, watch that youtube video. It's called seriously bad filmmaking, and it matters not if it's Star Wars or something else.
I was open to anything Lucas wanted to do, and honestly was not expecting too much new. But I didn't expect a film that almost had me falling asleep during that one political diatribe in the Senate that lasts an incorrigible 10 minutes solid and means nothing, and had nothing to do with anything the entire resto of the trilogy.
Awful is just awful. Nobody went in wanting to hate it. That's crazy to think that, if one does.
The audience was clapping and all hyped up........and 20 minutes after starting, absolutely all the oxygen was sucked out of the room, and it was dead shocked silence from the audience for the next 2 hours.

A few web comments about Phantom:
"GÇ£He is too old to train to be a Jedi.GÇ¥ GÇö Uh, Yoda? You say 6 is too old, but Luke Skywalker will be a doable fixer-upper at 20?
"having a 6-year-old slave toss together a better racing pod than all the galaxyGÇÖs technicians can create? (Those Tatooine slave schools must have a great curriculum!)
"Vader grew up on Tatooine, yet he finds the place unremarkable 40 years later in GÇ£A New Hope.GÇ¥ In the same film he senses nothing unusual about C-3PO, his beloved first-born droid. (Or his own daughter, for that matter!) In any event, this coincidence makes Tatooine the last place anyone would hide VaderGÇÖs newborn son GÇö Luke GÇö 20 years hence!"
"Uh GǪ will anyone please explain why the Sith Lord and Trade Federation risk everything to capture a teeny periphery planet? Can we have a clue why Naboo was important GÇö any hint at all? Hello?" (It is never explained indeed).
"The first Star Wars had the rescue of a beautiful young princess and the attack on the frickinGÇÖ Death Star. The Empire Strikes Back had Han and Leia chased all over the galaxy and Luke training with a Jedi master and, finally, learning a terrible and dark secret. The Return of the Jedi had another rescue and another Death Star and a long-awaited showdown between father and son. And The Phantom Menace? Trade negotiations and senate meetings."
"It was like a United Nations of misguided characterizations: The mangled Carib-patois of Jar Jar. The fawning and devious (and more-than-vaguely east Asian accented) viceroys of the Trade Federation. And the multitude of icky tropes slathered on the hook-nosed Watto, greedy master of Anakin and his mother. Really, George?"

Chuck Jones had a list of amazing restrictions for the "Road Runner" cartoons. It actually made them more interesting and creative:
The Road Runner cannot harm the Coyote except by going "beep, beep."
No outside force can harm the Coyote GÇö only his own ineptitude or the failure of Acme products. Trains and trucks were the exception from time to time.
The Coyote could stop anytime GÇö if he were not a fanatic. (Repeat: "A fanatic is one who redoubles his effort when he has forgotten his aim." GÇö George Santayana).
Dialogue must never be used, except "beep, beep" and yowling in pain. (This rule, however, was violated in some cartoons.)
The Road Runner must stay on the road GÇö for no other reason than that he's a roadrunner. This rule was broken in Beep, Beep, in a sequence where Wile E. chased the Road Runner into a cactus mine. And also in Fastest with the Mostest when Coyote lures Road Runner to the edge of a cliff.
All action must be confined to the natural environment of the two characters GÇö the southwest American desert.
All (or at least almost all) tools, weapons, or mechanical conveniences must be obtained from the Acme Corporation. There were sometimes exceptions when the Coyote obtained other items from the desert such as boulders to use in his attempts.
Whenever possible, make gravity the Coyote's greatest enemy (e.g., falling off a cliff).
The Coyote is always more humiliated than harmed by his failures.
The audience's sympathy must remain with the Coyote.
The Coyote is not allowed to catch or eat the Road Runner, unless he escapes from the grasp. (The robot that the Coyote created in The Solid Tin Coyote caught the Road Runner so this does not break this rule. The Coyote does catch the Road Runner in Soup or Sonic but is too small to eat him.

Damn, i can only imagine.. Specially with today's kids that relay power on their daily lives (including me). No phone, no computer *shivers* I might actually do something useful and talk to other people, with words! Oh the horror!
What added to the misery was most water heaters there use electricity, so it was 6 weeks of tepid water baths and showers that don't seem to really work on top of being incredibly hot and sticky all the time. Those houses there do nothing but absorb heat during the day, so at night even with the windows open, it was lot more hot and humid inside than out.

They absolutely do not have to focus on any part of the activity at all. Clogs up overview with literally 100 cargo containers on display and is actually causing lag for players.

"What's going to happen when black teenagers en masse also learn to "stand their ground"???? Will the law change, then?"
"The jury in the Michael Dunn case GÇö the man in Florida who fired 10 shots at a car full of teenagers because they were black he was GÇ£scaredGÇ¥ of their loud music, before heading back to his hotel, ordering a pizza, and declining to phone up the police GÇö has come back with guilty verdicts for four charges of shooting a gun and attempted murder (the teenagers he did not succeed in killing), and a hung jury on murder in the first degree (the boy he did). This means they also deadlocked on lesser included charges, such as manslaughter GÇö meaning at least one person on the jury agreed that Michael Dunn was reasonably scared for his life while shooting 10 bullets at a car speeding away, and with no return fire."
"The jury did not hear from Michael DunnGÇÖs neighbor, a fellow who along with his wife said Michael Dunn had at least two wives (not at the same time) who would run to the neighbors after he beat them and held guns to their heads."
William Gibson GÇÅ@GreatDismal
The Dunn killing makes the Zimmerman killing look like a Borgesian labyrinth of infinitely-nested ambiguities. _____________________________________________
So, just like the Martin/Zimmerman verdict. This dude gets off with no actual murder charge.
And the 3rd case coming up, the guy who shot the "texting jerk" in the theater when the lights were still up, is more than likely going to get off as well. Apparently here in Florida, if you hurl your phone at someone, they have a perfect right to blast your head off.
The Repubs in this state must be secretly patting themselves on the back for legislating such an ingenious way of being able to freely kill "the others". Most successful indeed.

Welp, it's supposed to "operate"as a single country, but that's not exactly what's going on over there. And getting other countries to toss in thier hats is proving extremely "problematic".
But then, because of all of our "States Rights" nonsense begun during King Reagan's reign, the individual states in America practically have nothing in common at all anymore. In California, for example, I can get married, but in Mississippi, I can be booted out of an apartment if the landlord even "suspects me" of being gay. Pot laws, tax laws.......some have State Income tax, others do not.
Florida's "Stand Your ground" nonsense is not found anywhere else outside Florida.
America is absolutely not any kind of "place of common cause" at all. It is 50 individual countries, some "scary" (North Carolina), and some not.

The dude was telling his friend all about the "layer of petroleum" that is underneath absolutely all of the Earth's crust, and the Earth is revolving by "sliding the crust over the lubricating layer of all this oil".
And that the dinosaurs are relatively recent creatures, and the bones are being mis-dated because they have absorbed "older chemicals" from other rocks around.
These were two very well dressed businessmen, not SF Freaks.
I had to say............something.
So on my way out I went over and asked the guy about the dinosaur bone age thing. I asked him if he believed we can date the age of rocks accurately and he said yes. So I asked him if he was aware of all the dinosaur footprints preserved in these rocks. He agreed that yes that has happened. So I asked him if we date the rocks with the footprint, does that not indeed date the footprints and he said yes. So, I concluded for him that we don't need bones to date dinosaurs. Bones are irrelevant.
Neither was saying a word as I strolled out.

Welp, most of us didn't actually vote for Reagan, or Bush Sr., nor his "Shrub". It's all a trick of how something called our "Electoral College" works. It's all a ruse anymore and absolutely.
And always remember that Florida was the state that "mysteriously" could not count votes properly and was still using paper punch card ballots in 2000 election when The Shrub "won". I'm sure there was no connection to his brother Jeb Bush being Governor of Florida t the time. Nope. No funny business going on there at all.

I can understand that... but the simple fact of the matter is that the EU is how Europe will maintain its relevancy in the world in terms of international politics and policy.
For instance, at some point in the last year there was some drum beating from the right wing in the UK about leaving the EU. This fell a bit flat on its face when it was pointed out to them that the main use the UKs allies had for it, was as an influential English speaking country in the EU. Without that, its just another island in the North Atlantic.
Yeah. Absolutely nobody even takes the highly independent "France" seriously at all, at least over here. It's just the country that bumps up against our "friend" Germany ( a relationship that is rapidly disintegrating, but that's another subject).

"It is hard to underplay the results: The study found correlations, sometimes quite significant, between these traits and trolling behavior. WhatGÇÖs more, it also found a relationship between all Dark Tetrad traits (except for narcissism) and the overall time that an individual spent, per day, commenting on the Internet."

Just thought this was an interesting comment on Tarkovsky's "Solaris" (I think Kryptic is the other "Solaris" fan here....someone is).
From an article about how movies seem to change over time:
"Then there's Tarkovsky's Solaris, which I'd say most clinchingly supports Heraclitus's contention that it's impossible to step into the same river twice. I must have seen Solaris six times on screens big and small over the last 30 years. Depending on my mood and level of maturity, it has seemed both the dullest or the most deftly complex of works. And further complications were added when I saw the Soderbergh "remake" (which at the time I reckoned superior to the Tarkovsky) and soon after finally read Stanislaw Lem's source-novel (unambiguously a cut above both its "adaptations," neither of which do justice either to the scope of Lem's ideas or the fragile wonder of the visuals he describes).
"On balance, it's best to regard the novel and the films as three planetary bodies of closely interlocking orbits -- it's only when you're standing on one that you can get a properly clear appreciation of the other two -- and, as all astronauts know, you can only ever stand on one planet's surface at a time."

The nadir of law enforcement run amok:
Woman jailed for not returning 2005 video rental
"The movie, "Monster-In-Law," starring Lopez and Jane Fonda as a feuding potential daughter- and mother-in-law, was rented from a video store, Dalton Videos, that is now out of business.
"The WYFF report says Finley was at the county sheriff's office on another matter when an active warrant for her arrest was discovered. Chief Deputy Creed Hashe told the station that the store's owner had asked a Pickens County judge for the warrant years ago when Finley didn't return her video.
"Hashe said Finley had been sent several certified letters asking her to turn herself in.
"Finley spent the night in jail because her bond hearing couldn't be held until Friday morning. A judge released her on $2,000 bond."
"Wait till they find out that she forgot to REWIND the tape!!!" annother commenter wrote."

Welp, most of us didn't actually vote for Reagan, or Bush Sr., nor his "Shrub". It's all a trick of how something called our "Electoral College" works. It's all a ruse anymore and absolutely. And always remember that Florida was the state that "mysteriously" could not count votes properly and was still using paper punch card ballots in 2000 election when The Shrub "won". I'm sure there was no connection to his brother Jeb Bush being Governor of Florida t the time. Nope. No funny business going on there at all. What a sham and a lie it all was (and is). Considering that all the problems were in counties and elections boards run by... Democrats, I think you protest too much. Especially since certain OBVIOUSLY right-wing newspapers such as... The Miami Herald... Oh, wait. That's a left-leaning newspaper! - concluded that indeed, the shrub won. Indeed, the only method by which he would NOT have won is... Get this! If Gore had NOT tried to steal the election and allowed the recount to continue as per law. Hah. Gore scuppered himself. The irony is too delicious. Mind you, Gore wouldn't have been any better a choice than Shrub... They both suk.
It's all still trumped by a seeming inability to actually count. And Jeb Bush supervised the whole thing. Ever heard of conflict of interest ?
Anyway, with the election of The Shrub, even my Christian Son of a Preacher Man Father, who was also a decorated Colonel in the Army, and lifelong member of the Republican Party revoked absolutely all of it.
He believed The Shrub was the most foolish thing to ever occupy the Oval Office. He went to his grave with no party affiliation whatsoever, and just simply never voted again after 2000. He had not liked what the Shrub did to the state of Texas while he was governor, mainly slaying almost all the environmental laws. Within 2 years of his governorship, the air got so bad in Houston they had to move further out from the city.
But..............whatever. We are all entitled to our opinions, and that's all they are really. The truth in these situation will be forever hidden and obfuscated if ever dragged into the light of day.

We pay charities in other countries millions when our own people can barely feed themselves. Our defence budget keeps getting slashed, yet were sending soldiers out to war with no equiptment.
To honest, the economy can go **** itself for all i care. Soon i'll be in a slavery camp and paid nothing so their economy can keep filling the deficit.
What the **** is wrong with these people?
Money is scarce and having to be shuffled around in almost covert ways it seems. Most of it is in the hands of the 1%. You are welcome to blame our former King reagan for most if this, as his policies were pretty much imitated when the EU was formed.
Isn't it great living in the world, where all the tax breaks were given to those Super-Rich, so that they could shower us plebes with all the money they were saving? Oh...wait.........

You know I can honestly see how they thought that might work but it does not. The large corporations and super rich are to greedy to allow that to happen. Instead of hiring more workers, raising wages, lowering prices. They cut jobs, raise prices and pocket the change. So basically.... how i run my firm? 740 staff and counting.

Speaking of pizza, I'm a bit puzzled at why I had more than one teacher in school, and in a few texts that I can remember, telling us that the ancient Romans invented the pizza, but it was pretty much just a flat baked dough spread with tomato paste and nothing else, and these things were distributed out as "lunch" for builders and other types of hard workers.
That's nice, but tomatoes didn't make their way to Europe until after they were discovered in the Andes Mountains in the 1600s.

Oh God this is all so true. When people find out you are from San Francisco, the questions start flowing.
Just a few from a humorous article:
"Do you know a bunch of hippies?" -- Yes. They all vote Republican now.
"How can you afford to live there?" -- Pretty simple. We can't. But we do it anyway.
"Aren't you afraid of earthquakes?" -- Somewhat, but two hit on the East Coast just last week.
"Don't you miss having real seasons?" -- Real seasons? The kind that involve 200% humidity and sleet-snow and gale-force winds? No, we don't miss "real seasons."
"Do you see gay people every day?" -- You may have to break it to Auntie Ruth that you even work with a gay person or two. You can't swing a bat out your door without hitting at least a bisexual.
"Do you know someone who works at Google/Twitter/Facebook?" -- We see them but ignore them. We hang out with those working for ILM though.
"Do you know where to get the best weed?" -- Yes. In fact they advertise. We are beyond the "yeah, I know a dude....."
"Do you ride a cable car to work?" -- Ah, if only our lives were that whimsical. And not for $5 one way.
"Have you been to Alcatraz?" -- You'll be shocked by how many haven't. (I didn't in 17 years. Too many tourists, reservations months in advance, blah blah blah......-- Krix)
"DonGÇÖt you hate that song that says 'Be sure to wear some flowers in your hair?'" -- yeah, but even it's better than "We Built This City". "He has mounted his hind-legs, and blown crass vapidities through the bowel of his neck."-á - Ambrose Bierce on Oscar Wilde's Lecture in San Francisco 1882 |

People want to live inside pieces of San Francisco's old Bay Bridge
"All Tomorrow's Parties" (1999) -- William Gibson
"The book has three separate but overlapping stories, with the repeated appearance of shared characters. The San Francisco/Oakland Bay Bridge, the overarching setting of the trilogy, functions as a shared location of their convergence and resolution. It features a lively interstitial community living on the bridge."

Yup. It's why I haven't been all that "funny" lately.
Oh, most of these ridiculous state laws will be struck by appellate and Federal Courts, but it sure allows "that side" to very publicly express their displeasure at other's lifestyles and ways of being.
What's particularly egregious about this Arizona one, is that it began as being anti-gay, but the wording is so loose.
"Having the right to refuse service to anyone for any reason." They can refuse service in a restaurant because they don't like Goths. Or just if they don't like tatoo-ed people.

Oh so very true.
These people are the minority, but all it takes is electing one politician out of the 120 or so in their state legislature who is willing to stooge for this kind of policy.
One person. To smear an entire class of people, gaining attention through media headlines. This is the new part.
I do feel sorry for those people though, who have been deluded into zealotry by their preachers/ pastors, etc. But they are indeed watching their world, and the imagined "promised" world, rapidly vanish before their very eyes, and are reacting out of pure fear and anger.
Don't ever forget that these people seriously believe Jesus is going to just pop back into existence at any moment, and deliver that Promised Land unto them. They don't seem to grasp how nonsensical this really is.
And they tragically have absolutely no sense of humor about it at all. That would be blasphemous.
A lot of it does not make sense unless one has read the Book of Revelations. Read it, and pondered that a whole lot of people think it's real stuff that's going to happen. Scary...and sad.

What's special about a steak house?
It sounds like they do speciality stuff or something.
The Steak House grew out of the restaurant business in the 1950's. Going out for steak was considered the top tier of fine dining back then, even more so than French cooking....which is about all else there was.
In the 60's, several chains of "steak houses" were opened like Bonanza and The Sizzler, offering relatively cheap cuts really, cooked quickly on a grill right behind the ordering area.
In the 70s, a bunch of specialty "steak houses" opened up that offered much more of a higher end of cut, and introduced the idea of dry-aging the meat. These places are fairly expensive. In fact, for my graduation in '83, we ate at Ruth's Chris Steak House and the bill for 5 was around $300. In 1983. A fair proliferation of these outfits soon followed.
San Francisco has several of those, like Harris' and Alfred's...and other rather traditionally named outfits. No Sizzlers or Bonanzas though.
Around 2000, everyone suddenly discovered Kobe and Wagu beef from Japan, and their preparation methods...............and the race was on. You can get these unbelievably expensive meat preparations just about everywhere, offered as full on steaks or interesting appetizers, even in the sushi bars of course, where Wagu and Kobe Tartare became all the rage. Most of those "traditional steak houses" now offer these as well.
So.................yes, steak houses are a thing. Were a thing. I have not seen the cheaper places like Sizzler and Bonanza, but then I've lived only in major urban areas. I'm sure rural locales still have them in drove. But the rest of it has been caught up in the usual haute cuisine trends (which is fine), so it is a bit confusing about the state of "steak houses" and most indeed.
Food has just changed so much the past 30 years....I remember being shocked when my dad was more enthusiastic about getting Vietnamese Food after church rather than a cafeteria.

It was fantastic, for about one minute. They have this stupid gimmick of serving the steak on a 500 degree F plate. So yeah, it sizzles, and sounds great, but it also handily transitions the steak from mid-rare to medium in short order. They allow the steak to finish overcooking to ruin in front of you. If you want a really good steak dinner (still pricey), but no gimmicks, go to Capitol Grill instead.

Ruth's Chris Steak House's name (this is turning into apostrophe hell) is kind of odd itself:
Chris Steak House was founded on February 27, 1927 by New Orleans entrepreneur Chris Matulich. It was located at 11 Broad Street near the New Orleans Fairgrounds Racetrack, seated 60 people, and had no parking lot.
Chris' Steak House was the only upscale restaurant in New Orleans with an all-female wait staff.
In 1965, divorced single mother Ruth Fertel, realizing she needed to earn more money to send her teenage sons to college, mortgaged her house to purchase the restaurant, ignoring the advice of her banker, lawyer, and friends, and despite knowing nothing about the restaurant business.
In early 1976, shortly after signing a new ten-year lease on the restaurant, a fire destroyed the building. Fertel had recently acquired a second property nearby to rent out as party space. Within seven days, she had relocated the restaurant to its new location a few blocks away at 721 Broad Street and re-opened it, expanding to 160 seats in the process.
The sales agreement with Matulich prevented her from using the original name at any other address, so she named the new restaurant Ruth's Chris Steak House in order to keep some continuity with the previous location.
She admitted later to Fortune Magazine that "I've always hated the name, but we've always managed to work around it". "He has mounted his hind-legs, and blown crass vapidities through the bowel of his neck."-á - Ambrose Bierce on Oscar Wilde's Lecture in San Francisco 1882 |

So............the Revolution finally begins....................at one of my favorite bars in San Fran !
Google Glass-wearing writer attacked at San Francisco bar
"Another witness said he wasn't surprised by the confrontation given the "punk rock" type of clientele attracted to the bar, which isn't really "Google Glass country.""
And no, it definitely is not Google Glass country.
This place is a punk rock bar on Haight Street that has been there since "back in those days". I'll be honest and say, for years I was actually too intimidated to go in there. Even the ones hanging outside are the real deal punks, not poseurs at all. The main bartender looks like Johnny Thunder of the Dead Boys. The only music allowed on the jukebox practically is Ramones, The Clash, and Sepulchura...and similar.
Even 10 years ago they did not like it when folks would use their cell phones and such in there, because of the capability of photographing. One would usually get a violent reaction if the camera was pointed around the room. It's highly discouraged.
The other side of the coin is that really, once I started hanging out there, everyone there turned out to really be very sweet. I definitely was the only gay guy hanging out, but it was no big deal at all. They even said they always wanted more of a gay crowd, and I was telling them that's unlikely to happen because the place seems so obviously "intimidating".
Anyway, despite how all this turns out in the end, they will probably actually proscribe these devices from even entering the premises in the future.

That is the one argument I am really seriously tired of hearing. And, yes, I completely understand the issues involved. I read about them all, especially Neil Degrasse Tyson's skewering of the entire affair.
Look...............most of the general public is not even aware at all of the complexities of zero-g physics....don't know, don't care. They more than likely will never ever have to deal with such a thing.
Why are we expecting a film, meant to be a SciFi actioner, to uphold with perfection, all the intricate meticulous details of what happens to things and how they move, and even determining directions and how to even get to the destination. I understand it myself....to a degree.
Do people not realize how deadly dull and boring this film would have been if all that traveling had to be done properly as in the real world. We would have just been watching endless boring travel during many many many orbits of the Earth to reach the various destinations.
I just find it an overly negative attitude, and typical of folks who do not truly understand how film works, and the tenets of screenplay writing. You cannot overload the general public with this kind of foolish technical and physics perfection. Nobody will watch. And any storytelling and dramatic attention would be just obliterated, and you are stuck with one of those horrific 50's SciFi films that always opened up with a 10 minute lecture by a "scientist" explaining the "science" behind what is going on. It's a story killer.
People are going to see an exciting film, not a physics lecture.
Where were the complaints about the physics in "2001" back in the day ???? Nobody seemed to have a real problem with the "Enterprise" functioning underwater in that last film.
Things like "Gravity" have to taken as what they are, and sadly, the people it was made for, SF Whackos interested in Real Space Stuff, just want to stab it in the heart for lack of "exactitude and accuracy". Poor things.
"Gravity"'s only problem was actually a story-point, and not it's physics, but I'll get to that in my real assessment later on. "He has mounted his hind-legs, and blown crass vapidities through the bowel of his neck."-á - Ambrose Bierce on Oscar Wilde's Lecture in San Francisco 1882 |

I was more thinking about the inexplicable nature of the Monolith itself, and all that at the end.
Those things were at least in Clarke's novelization and sequels, for those interested.

I think that's the next issue......... i wonder if orientation is part of our discrimination laws here....i shall have to check. Edit: that was quick. It is against the law to discriminate against anyone because of: age being or becoming a transsexual person being married or in a civil partnership being pregnant or having a child disability race including colour, nationality, ethnic or national origin religion, belief or lack of religion/belief sex sexual orientation
The Arizona Idiots are claiming that serving gays violates their religious freedom.......utterly forgetting that the Constitution protects me from their "religious freedom ideals" if they are aimed at me.
It's automatically invalid by higher courts. But they do this to inflame their followers in other states, and spread the fear and lies even further. And to give them a few more rhetorical lying tricks to use in other similar campaigns which I guarantee will come up.
This is just the first state. Their supposed desire for Constitutional Protection in "protecting" their religious freedom is doing nothing but de-stabilizing the USA socially and politically. IT cannot survive much of this kind of thing....and if they persist too hard, it will lead to Civil war. Don't think it can't happen.

His momentum.
It was greater than hers (her momentum was backwards to his, but he had more of it). Eventually (probably after about 5 minutes) the 2 of them and the craft would have gone the same direction: his.

Yeah. It's confusing to depict, but it seemed to be fine in my opinion. Also, it may have something to do with 3D that made something look a bit wrong ???

(2) Zur gleichen Zeit, bestimmte Vorschriften des deutschen Rechts ++ber die Gesch+ñftsf+ñhigkeit, Formerfordernisse eines g++ltigen Willen und den Nachweis in der zivilen als auch Strafverfahren, die nicht perfekt auf die Bed++rfnisse behinderter Menschen angepasst sind, werden ge+ñndert.

Google to pay for SF free Muni rides for youths
Great ! Now all the tech worker's kids can ride the bus for free. 
Now Google, what about housing in San Fran for those earning under $150,000 annually ???????? Ya know, the cheap apartments that the landlords whipped out the Ellis Act and evicted them from and transformed into horrifically expensive condos ?
"The Ellis Act is a provision in California Law (Government Code section 7060-7060.7[1]) that provides landlords in California with a legal way to "go out of business", short of selling the property to another landlord. It is often used as a way out of municipal rent control provisions. The units may not be on the rental market again for a long time, but can be converted and then sold individually."

"People who find themselves on the list get personal visits from law enforcement warning them that they better be nice. The result is a collision between law enforcement that believes in the righteousness of these efforts and those who worry that they could, as an EFF rep states, create "an environment where police can show up at anyone's door at any time for any reason."

Psychotic Clap Trap. Ignore it. And ignore that "friend". They've been "re-wired". Seriously.
Social Anthropologists exploring the idea of language as a virus have all but proven that religions with passionate belief do indeed re-wire the brain, just like narcotics. No difference at all.
Sorry this happened to your friendship, but there is never any turning back from that. At least, that I've ever seen.

I know about all this stuff from past experience . I had to suffer enough of it when I was a child with my father. He was a Jehovah's Whiteness and forced me to go to the Kingdom Hall with him. I had no choice and nor did my mother as my parents were divorced and the courts would do nothing about it. Even as a kid I thought all those people were strange and what they babbled on about was stupid.
Sorry for turning this into a religious debate.
Yeah, I didn't have it anything like that as a Baptist. But it was church every Sunday morning and Sunday evening and Wednesday evening. Ugh. And my Dad believed in Science, but even he was a Deacon. And his father founded the American Baptist Seminary in Little Rock, AR.
Needless to say, I'm really familiar with it all. And where all these people (Arizona) are coming from. Just none of it made any sense to me.
I remember when I was about 7 or so, I was aware (somehow) that American Indians and such could not have known of Jesus, and my Sunday School teacher told us that any peoples not believing in Jesus was going to Hell.
So I actually asked my Sunday School teacher if all the Indians before the Colonists arrived and all through their time before them were all in Hell, and she answered yes.
I have no sharp memories but it caused "quite a stir". Some of the littler kids started crying ! I was always considered smart (for a tiny town) but was then considered a bit "out of the normal league".
It just does weird things to people and has them believe really strange things. I've not ever seen it fail at that. "He has mounted his hind-legs, and blown crass vapidities through the bowel of his neck."-á - Ambrose Bierce on Oscar Wilde's Lecture in San Francisco 1882 |

For the record, I'm religious, but this sort of ham-handed jello-headed mix of religion and politics always bothers me.
Oh, I love the parts about behavior towards others and other positive things, especially in what Jesus has to say. Buddha. Eastern Philosophies. It's all valid.
But these Baptists and such, even my dad and grandad, always and only ever talk about Paul, and what he did and said. And he's the delusional psycho who wrote Revelations.

The Bounty vs Loot mechanics already operate in inverse proportion to each other, balancing things out (I'm referring to lvl IV missions).
Those that have high bounties usually have pretty pathetic loot, and those with high ISK loot have pathetic bounties.
The missions involving Mercenaries do not even have bounties at all, already.
I just do not see a major problem that needs fixing or tweaking in any way.

"Superman" (1978) with Christopher Reeve is on.
I'm sorry, but these newer guys, Brandon Routh (I actually had to look up his name) and Henry Cavill do not even come close to delivering what Christopher did. It's a performance for the ages.
In "Superman II" when he and Lois are talking in their hotel room, he just stands there in close-up and in the space of about 2 minutes you can see him transform from Clark to Superman and back several times and he never opens his mouth or moves a muscle. It's astounding.
And the whole Superman/Batman thing with the next film....I just can't get behind it. I read Millar's Dark Knight Returns when it came out, but it's been way too long and it's imho an idea that has come and gone, like a film of "Neuromancer". It's just been discussed to death for so long a film of it just can't "say" anything really new.

Your heads actually have to touch. And a 5 second Selfie is about right.
Which is why I can't fathom how I got them so easily. I've never been a touchy-feely person.
I take it this person "had them for awhile", but that's actually kind of strange. The treatment is over the counter (even in America) and it works instantly and without issue.

Ila Dace wrote:I remember back in 2006 when the Academy Awards split the Best Director / Best Picture (Ang Lee / Crash) someone saying: "It's ridiculous. If he's the Best Director, what is he the best director of? And if that's the Best Picture, who directed it?" Sigh.
It can indeed be true that the best job of directing does not make necessarily the best film of the year. But, sometimes when this happens, as in 2006, a lot has to to with favoritism and "who doesn't have an Oscar yet" syndrome.
"Crash" was a movie about Los Angeles after all, so that may have influenced some to vote for it. But really, with hindsight, "Crash" remains pretty much a typical movie, not really remembered for anything special or presenting anything new.
I don't think anyone is going to forget the "loser", Brokeback Mountain, anytime soon.
"Slumdog Millionaire" is another good example. The film became a huge massive meme for about 2 months around the awards, with the public especially and with a hit song everywhere. A feel good movie that appealed to older Academy voter's sensibilities. Don't forget that there are a ton of Oscar voters who are in the age group of Kim Novak whom we got to see last night (oh, my....). And 3 years later nobody can even remember the film at all.
Worst was the best picture win for that horrible silent film "The Artist". How pretentious of a project in the first place. Smacks of being a student film project trying to be deliberately "different". "Hey everyone, let's make a silent film ! It's be a hit !"...........completely forgetting the results of Mel Brook's "Silent Movie'" (think about it....silent Mel Brooks.......).
But then when a film justifiable sweeps absolutely everything like "LOTR:ROTK", people complain because the ceremony is deadly dull and boring.
I don't think there is any real way for the show to win or to ever satisfy most people. It's all subjective in the extreme, a true matter of "personal taste" "He has mounted his hind-legs, and blown crass vapidities through the bowel of his neck."-á - Ambrose Bierce on Oscar Wilde's Lecture in San Francisco 1882 |
