"Winter's Bone" just robbed a bank. I love it.
Not only did it get itself one of the 10 Best Picture nominations — and it wouldn't if we were back to the much more reasonable 5 — it got a well-deserved Best Actress nod for star Jennifer Lawrence and a very surprising Best Supporting Actor nod for my boy John Hawkes.
I can't even tell you how happy I was to see his name.
He was astounding in "Winter's Bone," but he's great in everything. He's one of those journeyman actors I just sort of take for granted and never expect to see on a nominations list because he's not flashy.
He's not pushing for an Oscar like Christian Bale (who will probably win) or Natalie Portman (who will win). He's just awesome. "Deadwood." "Lost." "The Perfect Storm." "American Gangster." "Eastbound & Down."
The guy's been in everything. Just check out his IMDb profile. You've seen him.
Of course, some people are calling Andrew Garfield of "The Social Network" an Oscar snub, saying he should've gotten one of the supporting actor nods. Bull. I loved "The Social Network," but bull. I'm not seeing the "It" factor with Andrew Garfield and I even sat through "The Red Riding" trilogy.
I loved "Winter's Bone" and it's a helluva lot better than "True Grit," even though I give Hailee Steinfeld all the credit in the world … for a leading performance.
She's in just about every scene, so why did they stick her in the Actress in a Supporting Role category? Bull again.
But maybe they figured she could win over the supporting ladies when she can't beat Natalie Portman. No one can.
"True Grit" is one of the most overrated films of the year, I'd say, although there are still plenty of films I need to see.
This is not the year to stick with the 10 Best Picture nominees, especially when there are still only five Best Director slots. Yes, "Inception" directed itself.
I loved "The King's Speech" but should it win Best Picture? Should it win as much as it probably will? I'm not sure. It's kind of an evergreen film. You could pop that out at any point. It's not timely. "The Social Network" is very right now. And it's amazing how David Fincher turned a story about guys sitting at computers into something exciting, urgent and even emotional. I think that's the film of this year, as opposed to any year.
Here are the top films I still have to see, if they ever come near me or to Netflix:
Blue Valentine (dying to see this)
127 Hours (dying to see this)
Animal Kingdom (What the hell is this? I only heard of it when I saw Jacki Weaver's name on the supporting actress list)
Rabbit Hole (although I'm not really dying to see it; it was already a play and once it's been done… just like "True Grit," I guess)
Biutiful (Go Javier Bardem! This is Colin Firth's win, but good for the Spanish hottie)

The New Hummer H2
Everything the Hummer Isand Everything the Hummer Isnt
Its new, its different, and it works. Thats the lowdown we found out on a secret engineering drive with the new Hummerthe H2. Although its still in the engineering phases, we lucked out and tagged along with four prototype H2s and all its engineers for real-world testing on the Rubicon. Unlike most manufacturers, who stick to a contrived test track for data acquisition, the Hummer crew wanted to know how the new rig would perform on a real trail, what to change to make the new H2 even better, and what we thought of it. We cant tell you everything we learned, as the design and engineering is still ongoing, but here are the basics of what you have to look forward to. But first, some important background info.
When someone says Hummer, images of a big, wide, strong 4x4 with a steep price tag come to mind. And for some, a lack of acceleration and a disdaining diesel clatter are envisioned. But thats the old Hummer, now known as the H1. The new H2 promises much more, while still building on the basics of its older sibling.
Anyone who doesnt know what an original Hummer is like is probably brain dead or living under a rock. The Hummer first burst on the scene as the military Humvee, designed and produced by AM General, originally a part of AMC, as in Jeep. Unlike most of the military vehicles it replaced, the Humvees full independent suspension gave great ground clearance and tremendous load-carrying ability. Geared hubs, a GM diesel engine, and an automatic tranny were just a few of the features packed into the Humvee. When the civilian model was introduced, creature comforts and safety items bloomed, mainly due to federal safety rules, but the public snapped the Hummers up.
The problems associated with civilian Hummers are well known. Although its big, beefy, and wide, its diesel engine makes noise that most Americans arent willing to accept. And although the new turbocharged versions are much quicker, the raw acceleration is simply not there. Barely able to seat four, the interior seating arrangement around the engine and transmission tunnel is slightly intrusive. Finally, the high price tag on the original Hummer is out of reach for most of the buying public.
These are some of the issues the new Hummer crew addressed in designing the H2. In fact, in a unique arrangement, General Motors and AM General designed the H2, which will be built in the AM General plant in Mishawaka, Indiana. Contrary to popular belief, GM didnt buy AMG. The deal was a great way to get the best of both companies to design and produce the H2. What has evolved from the fertile minds of these guys is a new Hummer worth taking a look at.
Our first impression was that it was smaller than the H1 (isnt everything?) but it is about the same size as a Chevy Tahoe. Actually, it is 8 inches shorter than the Tahoe, but has a longer wheelbase and is a few inches taller. The resulting package resembles a Hummer, but is more refined and usable.
The drivetrain is oh-so-GM nice, with the 6.0L V-8 and the stout 4L65E automatic. The transfer case is a first, thougha Borg-Warner full timer with a 2.64 low range. The IFS front holds a beefy 9 ¼-inch diff from a 2500 series GM, and the 14-bolt 9 ½ rear is specially made for this application. Full disc brakes with ABS and traction control, and an electric locker in the five-link suspended coil or airbag option axle round out the package.
And performance? Heck, these rigs were fun, nimble, and a joy to drive on both the street and the trail. The engineers were proud of their accomplishments, and they should be. Since these were prototypes, lots of improvements can still be made, and other refinements can be dialed in before its too late. We said it firstThis H2 is everything the current Hummer is: big enough, plenty beefy, powerful, and unique. However, the H2 is also everything the old Hummer isnt: its less expensive, smaller, quieter, more comfortable, and highly stylish and it performs great. We cant wait to get one for our own testing, and well give you all the details as they come out. Stay tuned!

Should citizens in general be required to bail out certain cities over and over and over again? New Orleans is a case in point. Suppose a bunch of people got together to build a city and got around to the siting question (where to put it).
New Orleans is at major risk every hurricane season and every 2-4 years it gets hit hard. Let's suppose New Orleans didn't exist and the aforementioned group were to look at the area. "Hmm...there isn't enough land there to build the city on." "Yeah but I have an idea. We'll build walls around part of the water and pump the water out and build our city there." "Under sea level? You must be kidding!" "I'm serious as a heart attack! If the sea wall fails, we'll just depend on the Feds to help us out."
Cities built along the San Andreas Fault are another example.
Maybe Los Angeles, San Francisco, Portland, and Seattle should be moved to Kentucky and Tennessee (but not along the Ohio River).
And what about people who build homes in 100 year flood plains? People love to build homes right on the banks of rivers, and they can do so because they know the county, state, or FEMA will come in and rescue them and probably help them out.
How much should the public pay for stupid decisions as to where to build cities or homes?

Reviving the dead thread: Should we move New York to Indiana?
I'm thinking that since the Religious Right/Republican Party maintain that disasters are the direct result of Gay Pride parades, we should reroute all Gay Parades to whatever city the Republican National Headquarters are in, and let their god figure out how to handle it.

College Student Banned From Social Media for 5 Years After Tumblr Joke Sparks Terror Scare
You better watch what you say when you go online.
A 20-year-old college student has been sentenced to six months in jail, which he's already served, for making terroristic threats on his Tumblr page.
Caleb Clemmons, a former student at Georgia Southern University, has also been banned from using any form of social media for five years.
Back in February, Clemmons got himself in water with this post:
hello. my name is irenigg and i plan on shooting up georgia southern. pass this around to see the affect it has. to see if i get arrested."
He was arrested later that same day. Clemmons told police he wasn't serious and that his comment was "an experimental literary piece and an art project."
Officials investigating the case found no evidence Clemmons planned to follow through on his words, but no matter, since his post constituted a threat of action.

Beautiful, I love reading your posts. and I would love to live how you do one day x
Such a beautiful post Colette. xx
Indeed! I can well understand why they thought that electric lights drove the fairies away! The flickering light of lanterns and candles certainly do create a much more mystical mood than bright electric lights do. As for planting fennel everywhere, in MY garden, it spreads itself all over and I have trouble keeping it in its place!!
Keep up the good work – I love reading these blogs much more than I did the anti-Monsanto, angry ones that I suspect most of the readers here already agree with anyway!

United States Department of Defense officials and first lady Michelle Obama introduced a new obesity and nutrition awareness campaign on Thursday at Little Rock (AR) Air Force Base.
The campaign will overhaul 1,100 American military dining facilities by updating their nutritional standards to include more fresh fruits and vegetables, more whole grains, lean meats and low-fat dairy products with every meal for nearly 1.5 million troops a day, according to a Department of Defense news release. This is the first time in 20 years a military-wide campaign for nutritional improvements has been made.
The campaign, developed by the Military Health System, will encourage people to make better nutritional choices. It will include updating menu standards at military dining facilities, assessing the nutritional environment of military facilities, and ensuring healthier food is available in dining facilities, schools and in places such as vending machines and snack bars.
Obama said the change was necessary because military leaders know the obesity epidemic is not just a diet or health issue but a national security issue. She cited a recent Army study that indicates a quarter of the nation's 17- to 24-year-olds cannot serve in the military due to weight issues. Others may pass weight standards but go on to struggle in basic training or suffer injuries due to years of inactivity and poor nutrition.
The Department of Defense created the campaign to address readiness, reduce costs and to improve the military population's health, Obama said at the Little Rock base, which is one of six bases testing a pilot program to enhance food service quality, variety and availability. The Little Rock dieticians and chefs joined forces to make meals that were well-balanced, well-presented and tasteful, according to the Department of Defense news release.
The test bases also opened their dining facilities to the entire base population, not just for airmen in dorms or in uniform. More than 100,000 meals have been served at the base since September.
An avid supporter of healthy eating and exercise, the first lady continued on a four-state tour to celebrate the second anniversary of her Let's Move campaign, which partnered with the International Health, Racquet and Sportsclub Association (IHRSA) and the American Council on Exercise (ACE) last year to offer free health club memberships and fitness training services to military personnel and their families.
According to the IHRSA website, the campaign is still encouraging fitness clubs to enroll in the Joining Forces Network to provide free six-month memberships to spouses or immediate family members of reservists and National Guard members during the time of their deployment. Personal training, small group training or group fitness sessions also have been made available to service members and their families.The ACE campaign for personal training efforts has pledged 110,000 fitness training service hours since the initiative began in May 2011.

Crowds at Penn Station after the Long Island Rail Road suspended service because of an electrical problem.
Updated at 11 p.m. ET: Service out of New York's Penn Station is returning back to normal after a commercial power outage resulted in suspension of all train service in and out of the station on Wednesday night, the busiest travel night of the year.
At issue was a power outage caused by Con Ed work, the New York Post reported. The outage turned off the switches around 5:30 p.m., during the crush of rush hour. All service was suspended temporarily -- resulting packed crowds at Penn Station on the busiest travel night of the year.
For a while, passengers were not allowed into the station, due to overcrowding, but the crowds had mellowed by 9 p.m. ET and the station reopened.
The Long Island Rail Road resumed its service close to its modified service, the MTA said on its website, although delays and cancellations were expected.
The initial fury and frustration was felt immediately on social media.
"Oh my!!! #lirr NJT and Penn station SHUT DOWN on the busiest travel night of the year. Enough is enough for us!," said Leslie on Twitter.
Mother Nature (mostly) cooperates during travel rush
"I've tried to be understanding because of Sandy, but "Switching problems" at Penn Station the night before Thanksgiving?!?! #njt #lirr," tweeted Rob Celletti.
There was also some humor.
"Good thing New Yorkers and New Jerseyans are a famously calm people who always handle unexpected delays with tact. #njt #lirr," wrote Chris Heller on Twitter.
More on Twitter from NBCNewYork.com
From poor weather conditions in the Midwest to a worker protest at LAX, travel slowdowns and higher rental car costs have made Thanksgiving travel anything but smooth sailing. NBC's Ron Mott reports.

As an experiment, I'm going to post some audio files – these are from a recording of an interview I conducted with Harry Harrison 'on stage' at Octocon in 2001. I've split the interview into a number of sections, ranging in length from 5 to 15 minutes or so: I split the file wherever there was a natural subject change.
The convention panel was originally titled 'Harry Harrison at 50' and was intended to be a celebration of the fact that Harry had been a professional SF writer for 50 years at that point.
As this was a live recording, the sound quality isn't brilliant, but it is – I hope – audible.
If you have any difficulty accessing it or hearing it, let me know. The file is approx. 4.5Mb.
Thanks to Harry for allowing this recording to be posted to the blog.
After a brief intro from me, this first part goes straight into a discussion of Sex in Science Fiction, which Harry had written about in the book Great Balls of Fire.
