Somewhere in the world, maybe in a dusty old rotting liberal-arts faculty lounge, maybe in the office where they make that McSweeney's-Grantland Quarterly thing, someone is really excited about The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel. It's a "light" comedy opening Friday that stars Judi Dench, Bill Nighy, Maggie Smith and Tom Wilkinson, which is to say The Avengers for those whose balls are particularly pruney. It is this summer's first, but not only, Dreaded Movie For Grownups.
The Dreaded Movie for Grownups shows up every year. Usually it announces itself as part of a sidebar in a larger summer movie preview. (Here's a representative sample.) These are summer movies for the people who disdain summer movies, the people who have this (mostly false) notion that summer movies are somehow dumber than the movies any other season of the year. On a basic level, these films are simply counterprogramming, Lifetime running a Meredith Baxter-Birney marathon opposite the Super Bowl, Spike TV showing Rambo opposite the Oscars.
(Side note: I'm still not sure people appreciate just how fantastically violent Sylvester Stallone's 2008 Rambo was. There was honestly a second after I watched that movie when I wondered if Stallone was some sort of surrealist genius.)
In 2009, we had Julia & Julia, Away We Go, Taking Woodstock—aka, that fortnight when people actually thought Demetri Martin was the next big movie star. Last year, it was Larry Crowne; Crazy, Stupid, Love; Everything Must Go and the premium example, the one everyone's trying to be this year, Midnight In Paris. (Fine, yes, I loved that one. Others convincingly disagree.) This year's entrants: Marigold Hotel, Hysteria, Hope Springs.
The thing about these Dreaded Movies For Grownups is that they're just as cynical and calculated as the big special-effects-addled Hollywood movies they're supposedly so much smarter than. They're movies for people who think they're above summer movies ... but don't actually want to go through the trouble of visiting an art house. They're the cinematic equivalent of buying Ikea rather than Target, Chipotle rather than Taco Bell, Coach rather than Old Navy. You think you're getting something better, but you're not: You're just taking comfort in a brand name.
Collectively, this summer's big three Movies For Grownups mark off all the major boxes on the You're Better Than Michael Bay checklist:
• Period piece. (Hysteria.)
• "Alternative" movie star who positions him/herself outside the action-movie realm. (Hysteria, Hope Springs.
• Lots of middle-range actors gathering and combining their powers like Voltron. (All three.)
• Aging movie stars clinging desperately to the notion that you still recognize them, also known as the Larry Crowne principle. (Exotic Marigold, Hope Springs.)
• Meryl Streep. (Hope Springs.)
• Vanilla inoffensiveness, wrapped up in a "light comic" package. (All three, and all the movies we're talking about here.)
These are movies for your mom. (That is to say, whether you want to admit it or not, every year they're a little bit more for you.) When you can't agree on what to see, they're something everyone can agree not to care about enough to hate.
Timid ambitions make for tepid results. Last year, the vulgar big-summer-movie industrial complex gave us the genuine entertainment of Bridesmaids and the final Harry Potter film. Two years ago came Toy Story 3 and Inception. In 2009, Star Trek, Inglourious Basterds and District 9. All of those films—and some of the more anticipated films this year, like The Dark Knight Rises and Prometheus and The Avengers—were braver works of art than your frothy little Meryl Streep boomer romantic comedy.
The summer is when what America does best—create shockingly expensive, massive, all-encompassing spectacle—is on display for the world to see. It's the summer. It's time to blow shit up. It's what we do best, and dammit, it's just honest. Ignoring that to see Tommy Lee Jones reinvigorate his Midwestern marital passion is perverse.
In a perfect world, we just combine the summer movie and the anti-summer movie, and let Helen Mirren blow people away with a machine gun.

American and Canadian citizens must have a passport that is valid for at least 90 days beyond the intended return date in order to enter and depart the country. Tourists must also provide proof of return or onward travel. Each traveler is responsible for ensuring that his/her passport is up to date. Citizens of other nationalities should check with respective authorities before departure.
Please ensure that the name on your passport matches all travel documents we have issued. If this is not the case, please contact us immediately.
Please make a photocopy of your passport's identification page and keep it separate from your original. It's also a good idea to leave a digital copy with someone at home. This may speed up the replacement process should you lose your passport.
U.S. and Canadian citizens may enter for up to 90 days for tourist or business purposes without a visa. Citizens from other countries may require a valid visa. These requirements change often and therefore it is best that you check with the Embassy of Hungary for the most up-to-date visa information.
Cancelation and Medical Insurance is highly recommended as it can safeguard against the expenses associated with in-country medical emergencies, lost or delayed baggage and emergency cancelation or interruption of your trip. Please ensure your policy will provide you with upfront medical coverage so that you are not responsible for a hefty medical bill. Insurance can be purchased through us.
We always recommend that you see a doctor or health-care provider who specializes in Travel Medicine. They will best determine your vaccination and medication needs based on your health and immunization history, areas of the country you will be visiting, planned activities and up-to-the-minute requirement changes. For all vaccinations and health requirements, we also recommend that you consult the World Health Organization (WHO): http://www.who.int or Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) http://wwwnc.cdc.gov.
If there are any medical items that are essential to your health, such as prescription drugs or corrective eye wear, bring duplicates and divide them between your checked bags and hand luggage. While non-prescription drugs such as aspirin are generally available, it is difficult to replace prescription items.
Recommended Items:
Hungary experiences the same weather as typical inland European countries. Summers are warm and dry, while winters can be quite cold. Temperatures usually stay around zero in the winter, but have been known to drop well below freezing with cold winds. Heavy snowfall is also common in the winter. Summer usually sees temperatures from 20-25 degrees Celsius but can soar above 30 depending on the day. Summer evenings tend to cool down, and thunderstorms are not uncommon.
For up-to-date forecasts, check weather.com.
Electricity in Hungary is supplied at 220 volts. Sockets are designed to accept two round prongs. Some sockets will take the plugs with large prongs only; others will take the ones with small prongs. A multi-adaptor with different plug configurations can be very useful. We advise not to bring a hair dryer as it could blow a fuse.
Phone: Roaming charges vary between carriers, but tend to be quite costly. Consult your phone provider prior to departure to discuss overseas rates and international package options. It is also possible to purchase a SIM card locally to avoid international charges when calling numbers within Hungary. (You should check to see that your cell phone is SIM card compatible).
Internet: Internet cafés and wireless access is available in most urban areas, airports and hotels.
The currency in Hungary is the Hungarian Forint. Generally speaking, we advise bringing around 15,000Ft per day, per person, for spending money. Be sure to bring lots of small bills for porters, wait staff and housekeeping (not obligatory and based on your satisfaction). Hungarian paper money comes in different colors and denominations (200, 500, 1000, 2000, 5000, 10,000, and 20,000Ft notes). There are also coins:5, 10, 20, 50, and 100Ft. We recommend that you bring approximately 15,000Ft of spare cash in small denominations to have ready for tips and expenses when you first arrive.
We recommend that you get local currency from your bank before you leave home or from a bank machine in-country which is much cheaper than an exchange service at the airport or in tourist areas. Your bank card may work, but Visa or MasterCard are more widely accepted. You will need a 4-digit PIN to be able to use your cards in Europe.

Company positioned to serve water, wastewater and energy infrastructure markets
As communities across the country prepare to launch major infrastructure projects funded through the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA), ITT Corp. has confirmed that it will meet the Act's Buy American provisions so its U.S. customers can access the company's technology for water, wastewater and energy management.
"ITT is a global enterprise, and we're accustomed to being flexible to satisfy the needs of our customers anywhere in the world," said Colin Sabol, vice president of marketing and business development for ITT's Fluid and Motion Control group. "We have a solid U.S. presence, and are prepared to meet the economic stimulus bill's Buy American requirements in a manner that complies with both the ARRA provisions and the interpretation of those provisions by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). Furthermore, we recognize that for those seeking stimulus funding, time is of the essence, and we are equipped to do whatever is necessary to expedite their projects."
Shortly after the ARRA was signed into law in February, ITT added to the company's website a special section at www.itt.com/now that highlights its readiness to assist with shovel-ready infrastructure projects. The company also published a white paper in March to provide straightforward information and practical advice about the ARRA to consulting engineers, as well as state and local municipal boards.
The white paper was originally based on draft guidance from the EPA and the federal Office of Management and Budget regarding implementation of the ARRA's Buy American provisions. It has now been updated to reflect final guidance that was issued by the EPA in late June.
Of the $787 billion in federal spending that was authorized by the ARRA, $60 billion has been specifically earmarked to support water, wastewater and energy infrastructure projects involving both traditional and "green" technology. All of these are areas that ITT is positioned to serve.
At facilities throughout the U.S., ITT not only manufactures and assembles, but also conducts testing and research on pumps, valves and other equipment and systems designed to move and treat water and wastewater. Among its brands are Flygt, Bell & Gossett, Goulds Pumps, Flowtronex, Leopold, WEDECO and Sanitaire.
These brands have a wide range of applications in the very facilities that the ARRA was designed to improve and upgrade, including office buildings, schools, libraries, heating plants, pumping stations and wastewater treatment centers.
"With our broad offering of solutions, ITT is eager to be a full-fledged partner on these vital infrastructure projects that will play a key role in our nation's economic recovery," said Sabol.

WOONSOCKET, R.I., March 6, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- CVS Caremark (NYSE: CVS) announced today that Accordant Health Services has been awarded Case Management Accreditation from URAC, a Washington, DC-based health care accrediting organization that establishes quality standards for the health care industry. Accordant Health Services met URAC's Case Management Accreditation standards, which require companies to establish processes to assess, plan and implement case management interventions. The accreditation is valid through March 1, 2016.
"We are very excited to have received URAC accreditation," said Trip Hofer, President of Accordant Health Services. "We understand that holistically supporting individuals who have rare conditions will impact lives and health care spend. Accreditation from URAC is important for Accordant. It recognizes our ongoing commitment to excellence and demonstrates our passion for providing services in the highest quality manner."
Accordant Health Services provides health plans, employers and CVS Caremark Pharmacy Benefit Management (PBM) client members with care management solutions that are not offered in traditional health management programs. Support is targeted to individuals who have rare, complex medical conditions requiring specialized care to facilitate improved health outcomes, self-management and communication with health care providers. Accordant's Care Teams serve as liaisons and advocates, facilitating relationships between members, physicians, pharmacists, specialists, insurance companies and employers to address the appropriate use of health care resources.
"Accordant Health Services should be commended for meeting strict quality standards," said William Vandervennet, URAC Chief Operating Officer. "It is critically important for health care organizations to make a commitment to quality and accountability. URAC accreditation is a demonstration of that commitment."
URAC's Case Management Accreditation standards require companies to establish a process to assess, plan and implement case management interventions. The standards address approaches to ensuring appropriate patient protections have been established, such as policies for confidentiality of patient information, informed consent, dispute resolution, and other issues. The standards also cover staff structure and qualifications, quality improvement, information management, oversight of delegated functions, ethics, complaints, and the case management process.
In addition to meeting mandatory accreditation requirements, Accordant also met leading indicators identified by URAC as highly effective practices, not widely adopted in the field of Case Management. These indicators include:
- Requirement for use of plain language in consumer materials
- Assessment of use of plain language in consumer materials
- Provision of relevant guidance to staff that develops or uses consumer materials on how to communicate in ways that are understandable to the consumer
- Requirement that nurses have mandatory case management certification within four years of hire
- Proactive verification activities for licensure and certification
- Internal information system interoperability

A plan by the Department of Juvenile Services to double capacity at a privately run residential facility for young offenders was put off Wednesday after state officials expressed concern about the system "backsliding" toward larger, harder-to-manage facilities.
Sam Abed, Maryland secretary of juvenile services, appeared before the Board of Public Works to request approval for an $11.7 million contract to grow the Silver Oak Academy in Carroll County beyond the state cap of 48 beds to 96. The move would help reduce a backlog of juveniles who get stuck at detention centers awaiting beds to open up at a treatment facility, he said.
"From the perspective of youth or a parent of a youth, it's very, very difficult to comprehend why the state would allow them to sit in a detention bed when there's an option available," Abed told the state spending board.
The Board of Public Works decided to take up the issue again in three weeks, asking the juvenile services agency to show that it had support from the legislature. Though described as a short-term fix, the proposed move led to concerns that it would reopen the door for larger youth detention facilities in Maryland.
Many youth experts say juveniles tend to do better in smaller facilities that are closer to the communities where they live, and the state has historically struggled to reconcile the size of facilities with the needs of the state's youth offender population.
"The cornerstone of reform has been to try to limit the size of these facilities," said state Sen. Bobby Zirkin, a Baltimore County Democrat who spoke out at the hearing against the expansion. "Over the years, these private facilities start off small, do a good job, and then end up having hundreds of kids. We're about to jump down this track again."
Silver Oak is run at the Keymar site of the former Bowling Brook Academy, which was shut down after a young resident died there. With a capacity for 150 youths, it reopened under control of the Nevada-based Rite of Passage Inc. in 2009 and has made clear its desire to expand. The company could not be reached for comment.
The possibility of an expansion first surfaced in May, when Abed told The Baltimore Sun he needed to find ways to reduce the number of youths awaiting placement. A data snapshot from Aug. 15 showed there were 155 youths being held in short-term detention centers in Maryland awaiting long-term placement. Their average length of stay in detention is 49 days, which officials say is far too long.
Since then, Abed said, he has been lobbying state legislators and youth advocates on the benefits of expansion.
Public Defender Paul B. DeWolfe provided juvenile services officials with a letter of support for the move: "The department's data clearly indicates that … a large number of the youth pending placement require a placement in a facility that offers the security and treatment that is offered by" Silver Oak.
DeWolfe noted that those awaiting placement in detention do not receive treatment services based on their needs, but also said that as part of the expansion, Silver Oak would widen its admission criteria to include youth who had "previously been rejected or difficult to place in-state."
Angela Johnese, of Advocates for Children and Youth, said she could stomach the expansion if it were temporary. "But to think this would be a permanent fixture in Maryland is very problematic," she said in an interview.
In addressing the spending board, Abed noted that the attorney general's office's juvenile justice monitoring unit has been providing "glowing reports about the services Silver Oak Academy has been providing for youth."
The monitor, Nick Moroney, has generally written positively about Silver Oak. Still, he said in a Nov. 7 letter that he would not support an expansion to 96 beds there but instead would "consider — with reservations — supporting a gradual expansion to allow for a grand total of up to 72 youth."
Moroney encouraged the department "to pursue more localized and specialized treatment for youth in need."
The Silver Oak campus has a 20,000-square-foot vocational training center and six dormitories. Rite of Passage, which is known for large juvenile justice programs in Western states, purchased the 78-acre property for $8 million in addition to taking on $2 million of the former owner's debts and spending $200,000 on renovations.
It offers vocational training such as cooking, barbering, computers, construction trades and metal fabrication, and places an emphasis on athletics.
Abed said that while a larger facilities master plan remains in the works, "I know the realities of capital projects and construction. I cannot forsake the kids we have now in favor of a vision of a perfect system."
Officials appeared poised to vote on the expansion, with Treasurer Peter Franchot saying he would cast a vote against it.
But the board decided instead to push back the decision. Lt. Gov. Anthony G. Brown, sitting in for Gov. Martin O'Malley, said the agency's move "highlights the real potential backslide that could occur in Maryland" if the longer-term capital plan can't be accomplished.

Spring 2020 classes have resumed online.Please visit
dcccd.edu/coronavirus for additional information and to
learn how to prepare for online classes.
This article appeared in an August 2016 issue of the student newsletter.
With 62 rail stations and 11 bus transit centers, a DART pass is like a key to the city — putting you within steps of the places you go every day. Before you hop on and head out exploring, check out these helpful travel tips below.
DART buses and trains operate daily from approximately 5 a.m. to midnight. DART Rail offers service every 8-15 minutes during rush hours, every 20 minutes during midday and weekends, and every 30 minutes late at night.
Need a ticket just for the day? You'll want to purchase an "Adult Local Day Pass" from the free GoPass mobile app or a Ticket Vending Machine, the latter of which can be found at all DART Rail stations. This will cost you $5 for local trips.
Reduced fares ($2.50) are available to those with a valid DART photo ID including seniors, people with disabilities and students, to name a few. To learn more about ticket fares and passes, visit DART.org.
Qualified students at the El Centro College Downtown Campus can ride DART free when enrolled in at least six Spring or Fall semester credit hours or 96 contact hours in a single quarter for continuing education students. Visit the Cashier's Office for more information or to obtain a pass.
Attending an event downtown? Heading west to the airport? Use the online DART Trip Planner or Google Transit to create a blueprint for your adventure. You can also contact DART Customer Service at 214-979-1111 for assistance or view the DART Rail System Map online.
Heading to a class or meeting at one of the Dallas Community Colleges? You can easily plan your route with DART using the new, mobile-friendly, college maps. Visit DART.org/travelagent and click on the "Colleges and Higher Education" link.
You'll notice two of the seven DCCCD colleges have DART Rail stations literally right next to campus: North Lake College and El Centro College. These rail stops are North Lake College Station and West End Station, respectively.
The district website's
Public Transportation page has more DART-related information for the colleges and locations of DCCCD.
Need a little extra help using public transit? Find information on how to ride at DART.org/riding. Learn about services like the Travel Ambassador Program, which provides free travel orientation to anyone who needs it. This includes individual or group instruction on how to prepare a trip plan, pay fares and travel safely.
Another cool program is DART On-Call, a bus service that picks up passengers at their doors and takes them to destinations within eight specific zones. Reservations are required at least one hour in advance, and rides cost $2.50 one way.
Want to learn more about riding DART rail, purchasing passes or exploring schedules and maps? Visit DART.org. The website even has a section on how to ride DART to special events like the State Fair of Texas.

In light of the last post and this post from a day or two ago, I suppose it's worth mentioning (or showing) that a simplified Gnome desktop is possible in Ubuntu too. But in showing it, I will probably be underscoring a few other issues that I have grazed in the past.
If you start from a command-line system in Lucid and add xorg, there are a few separate packages you can install that will give you a leaner, meaner Gnome. The first, and probably the least svelte, is gnome-desktop-environment, which will drag down a considerable amount of stuff and looks — omigosh — a lot like Debian.
You get most of the standard-issue Gnome suite in this package, with stuff like GDM, Ekiga, Brasero, Cheese webcam and so forth. If you want Gnome but don't want the Ubuntu, this might be what you're after. Then again, if this is what you're after, you might want to take a look at Debian. 🙄
Stepping down, there's a metapackage called gnome, but to be honest I don't know if I should include it here or not. aptitude wants more than 340Mb of software with this one, and some of the dependencies were broken for the Lucid beta. Either way, if you install it, you'll get a sort of in-between version of Ubuntu's Gnome.I don't know if I recommend it though, or at least not until the final release of 10.04.
The smallest one I could find that still has some reasonable function is the gnome-core package. This will take up only 84Mb or so of your bandwidth on top of what xorg requires, and you'll get Gnome, some of its niceties (like automounting), a terminal emulator, a text editor, a system monitor and a few of the preference menus.
Beyond that it's quite slender, and you're in a good position to build upward. If you have a preference for certain parts of what Ubuntu delivers, but an extreme distate for anything else, I would recommend starting with gnome-core.
One thing that jumps out at me after this little experiment is what I mentioned obliquely about a week ago — Ubuntu Gnome's hideous memory demands. It's now painfully obvious why a 2.2Ghz Celeron with only 256Mb suffered so badly: Both of those want well over 300Mb from a cold start, leaving me with the question … why so cement-uous?
In any case, the lesson learned here is to pick and choose the applications and software you want for your Ubuntu Gnome system carefully, knowing full well that some things in there are going to blimp out like an aggravated blowfish. Don't say I didn't warn you. … 😐

I did not care for this at all. I think I prefer a more traditional enchilada.
May 18, 2012
Yes, the salad of corn and black olives that you see is a side dish pictured with the enchiladas. The recipe is called Confetti Corn Salad and can also be found on our website if you would like to check it out. Hope you enjoy!

MaineCooker I believe the olives & corn are part of a side dish on the plate but I've emailed the Test Kitchen for confirmation.
Apr 7, 2012
Just discovered this reciepe... Sounds like something my family might like... but am a bit confused. The photo obviously shows corn and black olives among other ingredients, but neither of those are included in the list of ingredients ????Wrong photo or incomplete reciepe?Thanks for clarifying....

Our whole family loved it!!!!
May 9, 2011
This recipe is excellent!! I grilled my own chicken and tore it by hand instead of using the diced chicken. I also cooked up some rice and corn and added that to the inside of the enchilada. It was easy to prepare and the flavor was excellent! Creamy with a hint of spice. If you like spicey foods you may want to add more chili powder.

This recipe was quick, easy and my husband and I loved it!!

Over the last 20 years, the semiconductor industry has been at the center of rapid technology advances—from the PC boom to smartphones and now the IoT and driverless cars. But, have industry players themselves been successful in leading in the new?
Our analysis suggests that many semiconductor businesses need to forge new strategies to develop their core business, while innovating for their future.
We examined the industry through the lenses of financial performance and innovation prowess. Our analysis revealed four key types of businesses in the sector.
Our research shows that only 31% of companies are utilizing their investment capacity to fuel growth
Cautious investment strategy, but high investment capacity with option to explore new opportunities
Cautious investment strategy, with limited investment capacity to explore new opportunities; need to rebuild profitability first
Aggressive investment strategy, with high investment capacity providing more future options
Aggressive investment strategy, but low investment capacity, limiting future options
Semiconductor businesses that want to lead in the new, will need to develop a strategy to take them to the next phase of innovation and growth.
These are the three strategic imperatives that enable companies to rotate to the new:
Transform the
core business.
An organization must increase efficiency and maximize profits from its core business to build investment capacity.
Invest for core
business growth.
Rather than spending all of the new profits on the new business, the company must dedicate a portion to driving incremental growth in the core business.
Scale the
new business.
This requires investing the balance of investment capital in creating an innovation architecture that enables the new business to make the transition from concept to mass market.

Officials at Florida State University are advising all students that live on or near campus to sanitize their houses after an outbreak of a virus usually contracted by infants and toddlers.
Called hand, foot and mouth disease, the virus has struck several students who live on campus.
"We are aware of more than a dozen cases so far," said Lesley Sacher, director of the FSU Health and Wellness Center in a university release.
U.S. & World
Hand, foot and mouth disease is a "common viral illness" usually contracted by infants and children under the age of five, but can sometimes occur in adults. There is no treatment for the the virus, which can cause mouth sores, skin rashes and fever, according to the Center for Disease Control.
But, the CDC warns, adults can show no symptoms at all and still pass the virus on to others. University officials say the infection takes about five days to run its course.
It's a highly contagious disease that can be transmitted from person to person via direct contact with unwashed hands, by coughing and sneezing, or contact with blister fluid or surfaces contaminated with feces, the CDC said.
FSU crews have been wiping down dorms with bleach and enacting "sanitation protocols" for public spaces on campus. The university has advised those who live in fraternity and sorority houses to do the same.
"The most important piece of advice is to wash your hands often with soap and water," Sacher said.
FSU has reached out to businesses near campus – including restaurants and bars – and encouraged them to sanitize their buildings as well.
Two New Jersey high schools are also grappling with the disease. Kinnelon High School was forced to postone its girls and boys soccer games Thursday after a recent outbreak of hand, foot and mouth disease, NJ.com reported. Last week, Pequannock High School had to reschedule its season-opening football game because of a hand, foot and mouth outbreak, according to The Associated Press.

Hello everyone,
First and foremost, let me start this by saying, that most of this is from my own perspective, and may not represent other staff members or the site as a whole. I am posting my own thoughts and stance on matters to give some insight.
Lately there has been a few concerns with the forums in regards to its moderation, rule enforcement, and so forth. This post is to invite anyone to voice their concerns regarding how we currently handle issues on the forums, and what rules we have in place.
To give some history and insight on this from my own perspective, in the past we tried to be extremely lenient and let people get away with a lot of things, this spiralled out of control and ended up not working out at all, causing a lot of complaints from users, and a lot of work for the staff to go through and clean up many, many threads due to flaming and fighting that drove many of them off topic.
So we switched our rules a bit, and we tried it a new way. We enforced a lot more rules, and more heavily on users, even for first time offenders. Topics were closed quickly, or had moderators speak up to give warnings at the first hint of trouble. The majority of the forums users didnt like this at all, and we almost ended up killing the forums entirely by driving everyone away.
In the end, we tried two extremes, and both did not work out at all.
The current state of things is more lenient, although our moderation is slightly heavy handed compared to last time we were more lenient with the forums. We dont let people walk the line, occasionally stepping a toe over to test the limits of forum moderation. We act on these cases when we see them instead of letting people try to get away with as much as possible.
However, we have received complaints and reports from various people regarding moderation action or lack thereof. A few of these issues include:
- Infractions given with no warnings - these are typically done in the case of blatant rule-breaking, typically the rules that are more serious (1, 2 and 3)
- Advertising rules seem to be a bit confusing for people. We dont typically infract users for these since most of the time its the wrong subforum or a simple misunderstanding; commercial products (like soft drinks, cleaning supplies, viagra, etc) would be removed for spam without second thought.
- Lack of action taken: By this, I mean that someone sends in a report, and we do not act on it for various reasons, which can come off as if were ignoring reports.
Personally, I feel that the purpose of a forum is to promote discussion and diversity in peoples opinions, beliefs, thoughts, and who they are as an individual. I do not believe in restricting discussion because the subject matter may be sensitive to some individuals (blatant discrimination, disrespect towards other users and hate speech, however, is not tolerated). Both sides should have an equal opportunity to have their input; we should not be restricting entire stances or ideologies because some people do not agree with them.
Discussion and criticism should be allowed for all subjects; however we draw the line when these become potshots or insults. I dont believe a topic should ever be shut down or restricted due to someone feeling uncomfortable with someones opinions or thoughts on the matter. Ideas and beliefs should be challenged and debated - it promotes discussion and can teach others something new, or give a new perspective to look at, that may havent even been thought about in the first place.
There seems to also be a bit of confusion in regards to our rules. Some people report a post because they take offense to it or disagree with the posters viewpoints or argument. This isnt what the function is for. Please do not report a post because you do not personally agree with someone. If someone does not share your views or beliefs, that does not mean they are against you, or are attacking you personally.
The purpose of this post was to ask the community here for their thoughts and opinions on how we are currently moderating the forums, and if they feel rules need to be adjusted or changed.
Additionally, at this time we are looking for feedback for the following potential changes we may be implementing soon on the forums:
- Megathreads may be possibly locked/archived (with a potential option to be remade) if they are continuously causing problems within the community
- Threads with a past history of issues may be placed under a heavy moderation status - this means posts will be deleted without warning if they are breaking any rules or attempting to bait people into arguments. Offenders will not be given warnings, it will be infractions. These threads will be marked in the title to indicate this.
- Rant threads will no longer be allowed due to the negativity and constant issues they seem to create amongst members
I urge everyone to post their thoughts and concerns and what they feel we need to improve. If youd like to air your concerns more privately, please dont hesitate to send me a PM to me or another one of our staff members.
Thank you,

Deep within the Churchill War Rooms in central London, Pocket-lint was invited to take a gander at Taiwanese giant Gigabyte's latest laptops.
Most striking of all on display was the Gigabyte P2542G. Dressed in a beaming yellow colour, the P2542 is for those looking for a desktop replacement laptop that can run games and multimedia without a hitch.
Flip the laptop around and twin vents - inspired by sports cars, so we're told - are there to cool the CPU and GPU. Although Gigabyte was keen to promote the laptop's slender form, we weren't convinced: at just under 2.6kgs in weight you're unlikely to speed away like a sports car with this one.
But that's besides the point, as the P2542G delivers speed where it counts: on the inside. The laptop comes loaded with a third-generation Intel Core i7 Quad-Core processor capable of delivering speeds of 2.3-3.3GHz, plus an Intel HD Graphics 4000 and NVIDIA GeForce GTX 660M GPU with 2GB of dedicated RAM.
The 15.6-inch laptop also comes loaded with a 1920x1080 high-definition screen, rewritable Blu-ray disc drive, 128GB SSD and 750GB HDD, 4GB DDR3 1600MHz RAM (expandable to 16GB), two USB 3.0 and one USB 2.0 ports and an HDMI out.
Available from the end of August, the Gigabyte P2542G will be priced at a pound under £1300.

Check out Peter Sellers on Youtube:
Welcome to my Peter Sellers appreciation page (up since 1994!). It's long overdue for a facelift and some redesign. But in the meantime, please enjoy yourself.
Please feel free to contact me if you have an Sellers related questions. The internet has pretty much bulldozed the notion of any unanswered questions, but now and then there's a rare inquiry that pops up, usually a fuzzy memory of a movie you saw as a kid that you're trying to track down again.
The forums are under construction. They will be up soon!
Find out when and where the next Sellers movie is playing with this great new site:

Denise Richards Gossip
Denise Richards gossip, latest news, photos, and video.
Denise Richards is a Latent Queen?
How do you feel about Denise Richards? Do you worship her staying power? Does she represent the worst stereotypes of LA trash? Is she your MILF-spiration? Well this is the week for us to examine our Denise Richards feelings because she is all over the damn place! Denise is doing the promotional rounds for Twisted, which is a show you're either going to know everything or nothing about. Full Story
Sh-t on the sidewalk
Was at Sundance 2 years ago. It was super fun. Because, like all super fun trips, the company made the difference. Laura and I had the best time hating on the poseurs. No doubt, Sundance attracts major stars. Absolutely. But among all the film festivals, Sundance is also the worst for poseurs. Maybe it's a geographical thing. Full Story
NYE Waste of Money
Denise Richards and Lance Bass co-hosted a party at Prive Planet Hollywood in Vegas. Like, who would hire Denise Richards? And… who would actually GO to an event hosted by Denise Richards??? I would rather grab takeout at McDonalds – quarter with cheese, supersized fries, AND a filet fish to wash it all down – in my jammies, with greasy hair and a face full of pimples, and wine dispensed from a spout on a box than waste a good dress and an even better pair of shoes ringing in the new year with Denise Richards. Full Story
Dumped for Denise
About a month ago I posted this article noting that Lindsay Lohan was starting to resemble Denise Richards. Now she's getting dumped for Denise Richards. By the World Music Awards. Which isn't necessarily a bad thing. Full Story
An American call girl in Moscow
Duana, Michelle, and I… we came home from Europe OBSESSED with Russians. Like, we can't believe we were so late to arrive at the Russian party. Because Russians are amazing. We are all about Russians. Or at least the ones on our trip. As I mentioned last week, Grey Goose invited international media to Europe to promote their product and to introduce their new flavours. Full Story
Boyfriend Jeans and Hookers
This is not Denise Richards. This is Lindsay Lohan. But at first glance, for half a second, I thought it was Denise Richards. And that is not a good thing. Because whatever Lilo is, she is most certainly not the worst Bond Girl/Former Heidi Fleiss Girl ever. Lilo also doesn't attack elderly people with her laptop and accuse the father of her children of unspeakable acts only to beg him for his sperm five minutes later. Full Story
Not a star, just a liar?
Denise Richards claimed the other day that E! had renewed her reality show for a second season. Unfortunately the network has yet to make that decision. In fact, it sounds like they could be leaning on cutting that sh*t off Full Story
Mama Pimp on the town
Last night was the perfect night for Dina Lohan. Trading on one child to pimp the other, getting photographed and partying her tits off – the most ideal of situations. This is Dina in New York at the Sephora 10th anniversary celebration with son Michael Lohan who must be her Plan C. When Ali Lohan goes off to rehab or gets pregnant, Michael will step up to support his mother. Full Story
Why are they apart?
No really…why? Denise Richards and Charlie Sheen – they should totally be together. Is there a more perfect couple? These assholes deserve each other! It's a mystery why they split! As you know, they've been fighting forever about their kids, over money, terms of the divorce… now a voice message that Charlie left for Denise three years ago that was included in their court documents has somehow leaked to the tabloids. Full Story
Smut Loves the Low Road
Good form would be to refrain from warring publicly. To let the lawyers do the talking, like Paul McCartney, and take the high road. Charlie Sheen doesn"t even know what the high road looks like. Why would he? Especially against a low road whore like Denise Richards...his ex wife? Denise of course is currently out and about promoting that waste of sh*t reality show of hers in which she exploits her girls. Full Story
Please Take Her Picture!
Perhaps second to only Heather Mills, not many women are as universally despised as Denise Richards, which is why it's baffling that any network would give her her own reality tv show. A show in which she will gratuitously pimp her children so as to more effectively fellate the MiniVan Majority. Full Story


text: Meet the newly named Manatee nebula. Officially known as W50, this cloud of gas and dust is the remnant of a supernova explosion that happened 10,000 years ago in the constellation Aquila. This image, released and renamed by the National Radio Astronomy Observatory on Jan. 19 to coincide with the Florida Manatee Festival, bears witness to the correspondence that heavenly phenomena sometimes have for more familiar things on Earth. Both the NRAO staff and members of the Crystal River National Wildlife Refuge, home to many endangered West Indian manatees, hope to draw attention to the 40th anniversary of the Endangered Species Act with the release. The nebula joins the ranks of other nebulas named for animals, such as the Eagle nebula, Crab nebula, and Horsehead nebula. But that's not all. According to a press release from both organizations, manatees have a lot in common with the Manatee nebula, including the fact that: The cloud is the remnant of a star that is impossible to spot with a common telescope; you need a telescope that can detect the low-energy radio wave light radiated by the nebula's gases. Manatees can be hard to see in murky shallow waters. Spotters detect their presence by air bubbles and wakes. The nebula bears arc-like scars carved into it by particles blasted from the jets of the exploded star's remnant, a black hole, at its center. The scars bring to mind the scars many manatees bear from boat propellers that have gotten too close. The nebula took more than 10,000 years to assume its manatee-like shape. Manatees also have a long gestation and infancy period – well, at least compared to other earthly creatures. Gestation lasts 12 to 14 months and infancy, two to five years. Right. Still, that got us thinking: Just how much do all those other nebulas actually resemble their biological namesakes? In this gallery, we take a side-by-side comparison of animal-shaped nebula and their animal doppelgangers. Please let us know which ones are most (or least) deserving of their titles and whether you can think of a better alternative in the comments. Above: Manatee Nebula We have to admit that the Manatee nebula is a pretty close twin to this happy-looking manatee. Images: Top: Credits: NRAO/AUI/NSF, K. Golap, M. Goss; NASA's Wide Field Survey Explorer (WISE). Bottom: Image used with permission from Tracy Colson.T-Rex Nebula There is definitely something ominous about the open cluster full of gas and dust, officially called NGC 602. (Or is that just us?) We propose calling it the T-Rex nebula after one of the most fearsome predators to ever live. Images: Left: NASA, ESA, and the Hubble Heritage Team (STScI/AURA) – ESA/Hubble Collaboration Right: Paleontography/FlickrTarantula Nebula The Tarantula nebula, located in our satellite galaxy, the Large Magellanic Cloud, is a center for star formation. It is so bright that if it were as close as the famous Orion nebula (roughly 1,300 light-years away), it would cast shadows. In a similar vein, tarantulas are freaking awesome. Images: Left: Acrocynus/Wikimedia Right: TRAPPIST/E. Jehin/ESOAnt Nebula The Ant nebula results from the explosive death of a sun-like star, probably destroying any Earth-like planets in its vicinity. Ant rule planet Earth and we hope they never decide to destroy us. Images: Top: NASA, ESA and The Hubble Heritage Team (STScI/AURA) Acknowledgment: R. Sahai (Jet Propulsion Lab) and B. Balick (University of Washington) Bottom: Fir0002/Flagstaffotos/WikimediaCat's Eye Nebula The Cat's Eye nebula is one of the most complex nebulas around. Scientists have been studying it for hundreds of years and still don't know exactly how it got its mysterious structure. Any cat owner knows that a cat's internal thought structures are mysterious, probably impenetrable, and staring at their eyes will get you nowhere. Images: Left: J.P. Harrington and K.J. Borkowski (University of Maryland), and NASA Right: Tom Petrus/FlickrBug Nebula The ethereal Bug nebula is sometimes also called the Butterfly nebula. Its two-lobed structure could be easily comparable to the wings of a magnificent butterfly. Or the fact that it's the result of a massive dead star could evoke comparisons to a bug on a cosmic windshield. Images: Left: Richard Bartz/Wikimedia Center: NASA, ESA, and the Hubble SM4 ERO Team Right: Patrick Lewis/FlickrEagle Nebula The spectacular Eagle nebula is a center for star formation, most notoriously in the famous Pillars of Creation image from the Hubble space telescope. Eagles are spectacular birds of prey. Images: Top: Lip Kee Yap/Flickr Bottom: ESOPelican Nebula The Pelican nebula is located in the constellation Cygnus, the swan, near the plane of the Milky Way. It looks a bit like an evil pelican. But then again, so do all pelicans. Images: Left: Miodrag Sekulic/Wikimedia. Right: Manuel González Olaechea y Franco/WikimediaHorsehead Nebula Most people have heard of the Horsehead nebula, a dark patch in the constellation Orion. It might be the nebula that most closely resembles its animal namesake, the horse. Images: Left: T.A.Rector (NOAO/AURA/NSF) and Hubble Heritage Team (STScI/AURA/NASA) (Seriously, click this link to see the jaw-dropping version of the Horsehead from NOAO.) Right: anenomeprojectors/FlickrOwl Nebula If you squint hard enough, you can see the owl-like eyes in the Owl nebula, a complex planetary nebula in the constellation Ursa Major. Owls are beautiful and majestic creatures with round faces, just like this nebula. Images: Left: Fryns/Wikimedia Right: Hollingsworth, John and Karen; photo by USFS Region 5 (Pacific Southwest)Red Spider Nebula The white dwarf at the center of the Red Spider nebula is blowing out a hot wind and its surface temperature might be as high as 500,000 degrees Celsius. Red spiders are actually a species of tiny mite but this spider, which happens to be red, is much hotter. Images: Top: ESA & Garrelt Mellema (Leiden University, the Netherlands) Bottom: Gustavo Mazzarollo/FlickrStingray Nebula The Stingray nebula is located 18,000 light-years away in the constellation Ara. Stingrays are located all over the ocean. Watch out: they are fond of the photobomb.

Mr Rockfishy brauchte ein neues T-Shirt Design und hat einen Wettbewerb auf 99designs gestartet.
Aus 252 Designs von 34 Designern wurde eine Gewinner gewählt.
I'm looking for designs for Rockfish's launch range of clothing.
$150 for best design, we're also interested in buying up to 10 more designs at $35 each even if they come from same designer.
Once the company goes live, designers will be able to upload designs where the public can vote them into print, designers get paid royalties or a one off fee (plus feel good factor of helping a worthy cause). This is a part of our business model, however we feel we need to launch with a range of clothing people can buy straight away.
PS: If you think you've got a red hot Poster design please contact me or upload it. If you can make it clear that it's a Poster design that would be great. We'll assume all designs are for clothing unless stated otherwise.
Rockfish Streetwear

I will need the winning design in AdobeIllustrator, let me know if this is a problem and we'll work something out.
- We are a Christian ClothingCompany, Our clothing is to be thought provoking but not in your face. I alsowish to counter attack the rise in clothing with negative or immoral statementson them.
We love the use of strong,positive, powerful words such as "Courage", "Blessed", "Faith", "Redeemed","Love", "Hope", "Joy", "Truth", "Peace", "Freedom", "Princess" or any combithereof such as "Love, Joy, Peace" - be creative. The use of Scripture is alsogood but in a tasteful way, subtle writing in good font, various size fontswork well.
We also like Coat of Arms,scrolly stuff, Biker Designs, Tattoo style, Love tribal tattoo in particular, Useof hearts, wings, eagles, gothic stuff is fine, surfy style is cool, we LOVERetro and that seems in, Messy is very now. We need some girlie stuff for theladies. If you're going bold, be bold but not too your face, strong is good.
- Subtle and simple is very much the go in the UK so don't get too carried away with OTT detail.Having said that if you have some scrolly design that requires detail then gofor it. I don't want to limit people but I do wish to convey what we do like.Please don't be limited by the restraints on my brief, we will consider designsoutside the brief, so please feel free to try a new direction, the worst thatcan happen is we say we don't like it.
As with the previous compwe'll be working with designers as much as possible and helping where we can.
- Print Limitations: This is a Big one so please takenote. Our current printer can onlyprint within a limited area on the front and back of the garments, We can printon the shoulder and down arms of long sleeve shirts but can't print in cornersof garments. The size parameters for front and back print are 280mm wide by420mm High. As a rule of thumb, keep away from anything that gets stitched. We'rehappy to discuss what we can and can't do with individual designs.
We will also be embroideringgarments so feel free to design for embroidery.
- Colours to be used as background: You can download the Garment catalogue at thefollowing link.
Styles we're interested inusing are
Ladies: N10, N15, N25, N30, N38, N39, NO2L
Men: N11, N16, N26, N28, N31, N35
Ladies: N53W, N60W
Men: N51W, N61W
Please don't go outsidethis range as we've spent considerable time shortlisting potential garments.You can use the catalogue or website to know what colors these garments are availableit. If you wanna super-impose your design onto one of them and upload thatwould be awesome.
- We'll try and give more guidanceboth specific and general as the comp progresses.
- Absolutely NO RIP OFFS of other companiesLogos or designs. As clever as it may seem to do the whole "Jesus Christ" incoke cola white writing on red shirt, it is a rip off and as a company we wishto distance ourselves from this approach. I get it, I just don't like it northe legal complexities it could cause so please stay well away from anythingthat rides on the back on another companies image and success.
- No Cheesey Christian Naff stuff.Examples of extreme Naff are
Good Lord, have mercy on them for they knownot what they do !!!!!!!!!
