10 breakout political reporters of '12
For political reporters, presidential elections can make careers. Each cycle, members of the press corps are given the chance to prove themselves under the glare of the national spotlight, and each cycle, a select few emerge to stand out as "the ones to watch" in the months and years and elections (2016, anyone?) still ahead.
The 2012 presidential campaign generated a lot of great reporting and analysis, but these 10 reporters and commentators produced work a cut above. Some were new to the game, some returning. But even for those who had covered elections past, this was their breakout year.
Story Continued Below
The list includes reporters from the Mitt Romney press corps and none from the Barack Obama side, which is largely due to the fact that there were more veterans on the president's trail who had already made names for themselves. (For the obvious reasons, we've decided to leave off POLITICO reporters from the list, though more than a few came up for nomination.) Also omitted are the media personalities who, despite producing excellent work, had already gained national recognition in past cycles.
Through tireless shoe-leather journalism, a unique approach to the news, or smart, original analysis, these 10 distinguished themselves as reporters worthy of lifelong membership (and recognition) in the political media establishment. Here they are in no particular order:
Peter Hamby, CNN
No one at CNN broke more campaign news than Peter Hamby. When Tim Pawlenty, Jon Huntsman, and Rick Perry dropped out of the Republican primary, it was Hamby who got the scoop. He was also the first to anticipate the moment that Romney would announce Rep. Paul Ryan as his vice presidential pick. If it was labeled "First on CNN" and had to do with the campaign, it was probably Hamby's byline.
"I really don't think there's any formula for political reporting or breaking news. You just have to approach politics with genuine enthusiasm and enjoy building a rapport with other people. There's an element of fun to it. Politics is about the same thing it's always been about: relationships. We just develop them faster now, and in public, thanks to Twitter," Hamby told POLITICO.
"I try to play a little bit of an outside game. I've probably spent as much time time outside the Beltway over the last five years than in it. I actually have better sources in Des Moines and Austin and Columbus than I do in Washington, and I prefer it that way," he added. "Folks in the states often have a more honest perspective on things, and with the political universe being so interconnected these days, they're usually just as informed as anyone in D.C."
Robert Costa, National Review
The National Review's Robert Costa set out to capture the people behind the headlines in 2012, discussing Led Zeppelin with Thaddeus McCotter in Iowa, hanging out with Mark Block, Herman Cain's adviser, in hotel bars, and getting to know the many advisers and surrogates on the Romney campaign, including Stuart Stevens, John Sununu, and Rob Portman.
"There are thousands of opinions out there, but [National Review editor Rich Lowry] wanted to focus on original, in-depth stories. So he sent me everywhere — to debates, to swing-state rallies, to Sununu's New Hampshire home. That travel enabled me to get to know 'Romney World' and give our readers a sense of things beyond the press releases and YouTube videos," Costa told POLITICO.
Costa also benefited from being at a conservative publication. "Romney would periodically call me to check in and share his take on the issue of the day. That access was invaluable," Costa said. "The big disadvantage, of course, was my lack of access to the Obama campaign. They'd talk with The New York Times, but I could rarely get the president's advisers to respond to queries."

Donald Rumsfeld Hasn't Learned a Damn Thing
Bush's unrepentant defense secretary and the dark art of B.S.
Friday's theatrical release of Errol Morris's newest documentary, The Unknown Known, about former defense secretary Donald Rumsfeld, in many ways resembles Morris's 2004 Academy Award-winning The Fog of War, about another defense secretary, Robert McNamara. Each film focuses on a man who oversaw a disastrous American war during his tenure: for McNamara, Vietnam; for Rumsfeld, Iraq. Each octogenarian is articulate and nattily dressed, facing Morris head-on in a one-on-one interview, with the director's disembodied voice in the background, probing for deeper responses.
For all these similarities, however, the two films could not be more different—because the men at the center of each also could not be more different.
Story Continued Below
We have never met Donald Rumsfeld, but we worked with Morris and McNamara on The Fog of War (and a book by the same name), and we closely observed Morris's interview for that film. Stylistically, both documentaries show Morris at the top of his game: allusive, allegorical and suggestive, but never overly insistent. Like the mythical citizens of Lake Wobegon, Morris is not intimidated by silence. Both films are beautifully shot, with montages of the men narrating their careers on camera interrupted at regular intervals by archival footage. The overall effect is heuristically jarring, even unnerving, as these gray eminences calmly discuss events involving the slaughter of millions of people. In The Fog of War, Morris proved for the first time that a riveting and relevant film could be made by sitting an old man down, listening to him and inviting viewers to think about his public image. In The Unknown Known, he has done it again.
But through Morris's deeply probing treatment, the two films also reveal that the two men's motives for being interviewed are absolutely incommensurable.
For McNamara, it was a difficult decision to take part in The Fog of War. As he said to us many times, he knew that the film would be favorably reviewed because "Errol Morris is a genius." But McNamara also knew that he would be unfavorably, even brutally, reviewed. Both of his predictions came true. So why did he do it?
We worked with McNamara for many years on investigations into the Cuban Missile Crisis and the Vietnam War, traveling with him to Havana, Hanoi and Moscow for a "historical boot camp." Over the course of these projects, McNamara directly confronted his former adversaries (and was confronted by them) regarding the events in which all had participated. Repeatedly, the former defense secretary, sometimes alone and sometimes with other colleagues from the Kennedy and Johnson administrations, exhibited a curiosity to learn, confirming his belief that the facts would be meaningful and revealing, even if painful. Seeing Morris's same reverence for the facts of history was the final green light that McNamara needed to walk into the studio and find out what more he could learn and what others could learn from him.
Morris captures this open-mindedness in The Fog of War, in which McNamara recounts 11 lessons he has learned from his experience, particularly the Vietnam War. Throughout the film, Morris juxtaposes McNamara's press briefings on the war ("We've stopped losing," "We're making good progress," etc.) with the facts as McNamara knew them at the time: McNamara thought the war unwinnable at least as early as mid-1965, more than three years before President Lyndon B. Johnson fired him. In fact, McNamara worked secretly within the Johnson administration to find a negotiated settlement to an unwinnable war, even as he publicly became the upbeat salesman for "McNamara's War," as many called it. McNamara would become famous (to many, infamous) when he wrote in his 1995 memoir, In Retrospect, that the U.S. war in Vietnam was "wrong, terribly wrong." But this was the man who, while still in office, commissioned the Pentagon Papers, a treasure trove of data and analysis that examined just how "wrong" the war was, why and what might have been done to prevent it. The papers constitute perhaps the longest and most data-packed mea culpa in the history of war and politics. No one should have been surprised by what McNamara said in 1995. "Wrong, terribly wrong" is the cry of personal anguish that he finally allowed himself a quarter-century later.
In The Fog of War, accordingly, McNamara is emotional. He chokes back tears. He is confessional. He is teaching us something. Above all, his voice is urgent, a Jeremiah for the nuclear age. As Roger Angell of the New Yorker referred to him, McNamara appears as a "street saint" pointing his "bony finger" at the camera, seemingly poised to leap out of his chair and into the lap of the viewer.
Morris is nothing if not difficult to summarize and epitomize, but once each in The Fog of War and The Unknown Known he holds the unspeaking image of each former secretary on the screen for several seconds, just after each has uttered something that strikes us as unexpected and truly remarkable. Each of these moments embodies the essence of the decision-maker and the man, as Morris sees him.

Need States are used by marketers today to provide a clear, fact-based picture of what motivates a consumer to use a product or service.
Say you're on the beach and it's hot, you're going to go for something refreshing to quench your thirst. In the language of Need States, you are looking for comfort. The same might hold true for cold weather. In that case, most consumers would choose a hot chocolate over a cold soda.
At Tetra Pak, we have adopted the Need States model and theory primarily to support food and beverage manufacturers innovate. Need States is one of today's most recognised and established tools in helping to understand consumer motivation better. It provides an excellent way to identify innovation white spaces together with customers.

Industry 4.0 is a name for the current trend of automation and data exchange in manufacturing technologies. It includes cyber-physical systems, the Internet of Things (IoT), cloud computing and cognitive computing. Manufacturers and suppliers want to know if this fourth industrial revolution (4.0) is only for large original equipment manufacturers, or can small or medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) benefit as well?
Johan Nilsson, Vice President Tetra Pak Services, presented a white paper on these issues and others by hosting a live webinar on FoodNavigator on April 17

Here's something kinda fun; Fancy watchmaker Tag Heuer has repurposed Steve McQueen's 1970 classic "Le Mans" and inserted F1 Champ Lewis Hamilton for a mano-a-mano flick called "The Duel." Cue delightful race-porn.
This teaser video is a preview of a larger promotional video, soon to follow which apparently pits everybody's favorite racing movie star against the young phenom. There's also some form of contest involved where you guess the ending for fabulous prize, which are probably watch-based, in exchange for your personal information. Don't know that we need another Formula 1 Chronograph, but we'll happily watch The Duel. (Thanks for the tip Kyle) [Tag Heuer]

Sales Of Existing Homes Fall; Pace Is Weakest Of Year So Far
There was a 3.8 percent drop in sales of previously owned homes in May from April, the National Association of Realtors reports.
Also, the "seasonally adjusted annual rate" of 4.81 million was down 15.3 percent from May 2010, "when sales were surging to beat the deadline for the home buyer tax credit," NAR says.
The May pace was the slowest of the year so far and is another sign of how weak the housing market has been since its "bubble" burst several years ago. But NAR chief economist Lawrence Yun says in a statement that some temporary factors also depressed sales last month:
"Spiking gasoline prices along with widespread severe weather hurt house shopping in April, leading to soft figures for actual closings in May. Current housing market activity indicates a very slow pace of broader economic activity, but recent reversals in oil prices are likely to mitigate the impact going forward. The pace of sales activity in the second half of the year is expected to be stronger than the first half, and will be much stronger than the second half of last year."

As a young man, I made a mistake that I deeply regret and for which apologies may still not be enough.
After I moved with my wife to Los Angeles from New York City in 2001 shortly after 9/11, I told people that I was in one of the World Trade Center towers on 9/11. It wasn't true. I was in Manhattan but working in a building in midtown and I was not at the Trade Center on that day. I don't know why I said this. This was inexcusable. I am truly, truly sorry.
For many years, more than anything, I have wished that, with silence, I could somehow erase a story told by an immature young man. It only made me more ashamed. How could I tell my children to be honest when I hadn't come clean about this?
It is to the victims of 9/11 and to the people that love them--and the people that love me--that I ask for forgiveness.
What @SteveRannazzisi did was super wrong, but If we were all held accountable for lies we told when we were none of us would be clean.
Guys @SteveRannazzisi is a comedian. He tells jokes. He's an actor on TV. He's not running for office or raising your kids. #perspective
We all sometimes lie and exaggerate a story to seem cooler ...

This section of the Lewis & Clark Bicycle Trail continues to follow the Missouri River and goes through Sioux City, Iowa, before entering South Dakota. Due to dams, the Missouri shifts from a river to a lake, three of them in fact: Lewis and Clark Lake, Lake Francis Case and Lake Sharpe. The terrain becomes more rolling; there will always be a descent/ascent when crossing the river. Two options are available to customize your route. The Whetstone Bay Option is 25.5 miles in length (including 14.5 on hard-packed dirt and gravel) that takes you closer to Missouri/Lake Francis Case. The second option is an alternate way into Pierre, the endpoint of this section.
Major funding for the Lewis & Clark Bicycle Trail has been provided by REI.

Larry Bruce
I am a retail automotive sales guy, did that most of my life and love it. Still have to go to a dealership now and again and ask them to page me cause I love that sound.
I have been lucky to work with some of the best car dealers in the business and for 23+ years learned enough to be dangerous about starting and running a business. I founded AIMData in 1999 and starved for the first 3 years. Was lucky to have good people come on board to help and we managed to get AIM to a profitable good business. I also got involved with arguably one of the first internet retail used car dealerships MotorTrendsOnline.com, which inspired me to start ClickBuyDrive an online purchasing app for the retail automotive business.
These companies were successfully sold in 2008. From 2008 to 2010 I worked with Reynolds and Reynolds as the Vice President of their Managed Marketing Solutions group. I learned a lot of amazing things there and will forever be grateful for those lessons. I also met a lot of great people who care deeply for the well being of that company and am proud to call them my friends.
May of 2010 I Founded MicrositesByU.com the automotive industry's first Landing Page Management and Conversion Rate Optimization platform. My career has been an interesting mix of great companies, people and experiences. I consider myself extremely blessed to have had these opportunities and friends.

For the actor, it's all about being immersed in the role. The more complex the character, the more to discover.
For the actor, it's all about being immersed in the role. The more complex the character, the more to discover.
"I think she's flawed in a very human way," says Amy Vezza. The Framingham actress is playing Chelsea in the Wellesley Players' production of Ernest Thompson's 1979 play "On Golden Pond." Vezza has reached down deep to grasp the totality of Chelsea, played by Jane Fonda in the movie version.
Chelsea meets up with her father Norman and mother at a cabin the family's retreated to for years. For her entire life, Chelsea and her dad never connected. It's his 80th birthday. The clock is ticking for father and daughter to - what, get closer? - after so much wasted time. Chelsea internalizes her relationship. "She feels slighted in different ways," says Vezza. "She comes to the decision that it's time to let it go. Her parents are getting older. They're not going to be around forever. She wants her parents back in her life."
She's also seeking reasons for their fear.
At auditions director Valerie von Rosenvinge felt Vezza nailed the role. "I wanted Amy to play Chelsea like she was really hurt by her father. She brings a very honest portrayal of a neglected child."
Chelsea arrives at the cabin with her boyfriend. "He's tried really hard to get Chelsea to try and fix the rifts in her relationship with her parents," says Vezza. "She's an adult until she comes home."
The play will be performed May 3 to 5 and 9 to 12 in the black box theatre at the Arsenal Center for the Arts in Watertown.
Harvey Greenberg of Waltham plays Norman. (Henry Fonda in the movie). "It's a terrific role," says Greenberg. "Norman's age is not too far from mine." Greenberg is 70. He gets Norman and his icy, social flaws. "I like Norman, although he's a bigot."
When von Rosenvinge saw the movie "I was moved by the story. But I was 23. I didn't know then what I know now (about relationships). On many levels it was my story. I discovered that this is a play about universal realities. Some pleasant, some not so much."
As for the rural locale of the play (von Rosenvinge designed the set), she says "we all have places like that, places we walk into and are flooded with moments from the past." Von Rosenvinge is the head of theater at Hopkinton High School and has a long association with the Wellesley Players. "The play is about change as inevitable while still holding on to memories that are dear."
This is the second time Vezza has been directed by von Rosenvinge. "I'm excited to work with her again," says Vezza. "Valerie lets you discovery things on your own." Vezza has been enthralled with the theatre life since she was 9 and saw a show at the Weston Drama Workshop in the early 1980s. A thought came to mind: How does a show really work, from inside out? "I was entranced with what was going on backstage. I could see all the activity from where I was sitting."
The best way to find out was to audition for something. "When I was 10 I was in 'The Wizard of Oz.' I was the smallest munchkin."
She took up theater in college, and discovered she liked doing musicals and straight shows. "I like to get my teeth in a nice complicated role." Hello, Chelsea.
Vezza has been cast in "Annie" and "The Diary of Anne Frank." That's mixing it up pretty good.
A friend mentioned to Greenberg that the Wellesley Players were doing "On Golden Pond." "She suggested I try out for the part. I was looking to get back (in theatre). My last show was 'The Seagull' 2 ½ years ago."
Greenberg acted in college and had a long career at Polaroid. He arrived in the Boston area in 1965 and worked for an engineering firm. He got back to theatre with a small church group before getting roles with Needham Community Theatre.
Favorite role ever? "So far this one."
The director understands. "It's a story for everyone, no matter how old you are," says von Rosenvinge.

North Korea claimed it safely tested its third nuclear device underground Tuesday, a move South Korea called an "unacceptable threat" and which has been condemned even by the North's closest ally, China.
Hours after seismic activity was detected at the North's Punggye-ri nuclear test complex, North Korea's Central News Agency said the detonation used a smaller nuclear device compared to its two earlier nuclear tests and was conducted in a safe manner, Yonhap reported.
"The test was conducted in a safe and perfect way on a high level with the use of a smaller and light A-bomb unlike the previous ones, yet with great explosive power," KCNA said in the English translation. "The specific features of the function and explosive power of the A-bomb and all other measurements fully tallied with the values of the design, physically demonstrating the good performance of the [North Korean] nuclear deterrence that has become diversified."
Once confirming the nuclear test occurred, South Korea said in a statement the test violated U.N. Security Council resolutions.
The nuclear test "is an unacceptable threat to peace and security on the Korean Peninsula and in the region and a head-on challenge to the international community," the statement said. "North Korea won't be able to avoid grave responsibility."
President Obama called the test a "highly provocative act" that violates the country's obligations under "numerous" U.N. Security Council resolutions, is contrary to its commitment to the so-called Six Party Talks and increases the risk of proliferation.
"North Korea's nuclear weapons and ballistic missile programs constitute a threat to U.S. national security and to international peace and security," Obama said in a statement. "The United States remains vigilant in the face of North Korean provocations and steadfast in our defense commitments to allies in the region."
The test blast was also condemned by in the U.S by the chairman of the House Armed Services Committee, who said it was "unfortunate that on the same day the President of the United States plans to announce further reductions in U.S. nuclear weapons, we see another hostile regime unimpressed by his example."Rep. Howard P. "Buck" McKeon, R-Calif., also used the opportunity to argue against any cuts in the nuclear arsenal, however, because of the possibility of $500 billion in Defense cuts that could be forced by sequester.
China also weighed in against its erratic ally.
"The Democratic People's Republic of Korea, heedless of widespread international opposition, has again carried out a nuclear test, to which the Chinese government expresses its firm opposition," China's Foreign Ministry said in a statement.
Japan, the only country ever attacked with nuclear weapons, called North Korea's latest test "totally unacceptable.""It constitutes a grave threat to Japan's security, represents a grave challenge to the international disarmament and non-proliferation regime centered on the Nuclear Non-proliferation Treaty, and seriously undermines the peace and security of Northeast Asia," Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe said in a statement.
The U.S. Geological Survey said seismic activity measured 4.9 on the Richter scale and was about 0.6 mile deep, suggesting a light earthquake; however, it was detected in an area where earthquakes are almost unknown, CNN said.
"It's a nuclear test," Jeffrey Lewis, director of the East Asia Non-proliferation Program at the Monterey Institute of International Studies in California, said. "That magnitude and that location -- it's awfully unlikely it's anything else."
The commission for the Comprehensive Nuclear Test Ban Treaty in Vienna said the seismic activity had "clear explosion-like characteristics," The New York Times reported. Experts told the newspaper the explosion appeared to be less powerful than the bomb the United States dropped on Hiroshima during World War II but significantly more powerful than the devices in North Korea's previous tests.
KCNA said the test was in response to the condemnation it received after launching a Unha-3 rocket Dec. 12 that North Korean officials said was tantamount to encroaching on the country's sovereignty. It said the test boost the country's defense against security threats from abroad and help ensure peace and stability on the Korean Peninsula and in the surrounding region.

The Raincloud Vase
The Raincloud Vase
Handpainted stoneware vase.
Once upon a time, 238,900 miles from here, the Moon was made up of hundreds of little pieces of moon (rather than one big chunk). Those little pieces were called Munbeibis. They spent their time floating along with each other, observing comets and stars. They were generally known to be calm and contented creatures, but (as happens with many humans) some of the Moon Babes began to wonder what life was like in other places, such as on that big blue and green rock their world constantly circled...
A few years ago, a small convoy of Munbeibis decided to set out from their lunar orbit to investigate Earth. After much travel and exploration, the Munbeibis settled in the forests and seashores of our planet, preferring the company of trees and stars to city life, marveling at the lush greenery and shifting water. Sometimes, they set out from their hiding places to say hello to a special human or two, to bring you wisdom from the cosmos, fruits, cakes and flowers, and a little warm company.
All pieces are handmade, causing some variations in form and finish to occur within each unique piece. Please note that typically each Munbeibi is only made once, but if you see something you'd like that is currently out of stock or unavailable, please email email@example.com
All sales are final, but in the event that an item is damaged during shipping, please contact us via email within 7 business days to order a replacement at no charge.

WASHINGTON D.C., Feb. 15, 2011 — The national commander of the Veterans of Foreign Wars of the U.S. is appreciative of the funding increase President Obama proposed Monday for the Department of Veterans Affairs, but he has some serious concerns about proposed reductions in programs ranging from construction and infrastructure to medical and prosthetic research.
"The VFW appreciates the proposed increase because it recognizes that the proper care and treatment of wounded and disabled veterans are ongoing costs of war," said Richard L. Eubank, who leads the 2.1 million-member VFW and its Auxiliaries. "Our concern, however, is that the total discretionary request of almost $62 billion is just not enough for VA to improve all the programs and services on their watch."
The proposed VA budget for fiscal year 2012 is $132.2 billion, of which $70.3 billion is for mandatory benefits such as disability compensation and pension. The remaining $61.9 billion is discretionary funding, primarily for the Veterans Health Administration, which represents about a 10-percent increase over FY 2010 funding, but just 3 percent more than the proposed but never passed FY 2011 budget.
In contrast, the Independent Budget recommends $65.3 billion, or 14.4 percent above 2010 levels and 8 percent about 2011. The VFW coauthors the Independent Budget—now in its 25th year—with AMVETs, Disabled American Veterans and Paralyzed Veterans of America.

Three weeks into the college football season, the national landscape has changed dramatically on two major fronts.
Stanford 21, USC 14 tightened the screws on the possibility of a Pac-12 team participating in the BCS title game and opened wide the competition for the Heisman Trophy. The upset of the Trojans, combined with stumbles by teams thought to be the best in the Big Ten, makes it extremely likely that the Southeastern Conference will provide one of the teams in the championship game to the disgust of many.
Out West, Stanford and Oregon are in the same division, but they don�t play until Nov. 17. Two weeks prior to that, Oregon is at USC. More than likely, the Ducks will have to win both games and defeat USC again in the championship game to play in Miami in January. A loss in November or December would be a killer. Stanford is in a similar spot and USC must win out, maybe beating Oregon twice.
Meanwhile, Big Ten favorites Michigan, Wisconsin, Michigan State, and Nebraska have one loss each and have yet to begin conference play. Despite highly regarded running back Le�Veon Bell, Michigan State managed 50 yards rushing in a loss to Notre Dame. With Montee Ball, Wisconsin ran for 35 yards and scored one touchdown in a loss to Oregon State. Michigan was inept vs. Alabama in the season opener and Nebraska was outscored by UCLA.
Bye-bye Big Ten.
The Big 12 has five teams in the top 17 in The AP poll, but the league is only one game deep in conference play. No. 15 Kansas State plays No. 6 Oklahoma this week and the dog-eat-dog round-robin begins in earnest Sept. 29. Any team that gets through the regular season unbeaten will be in the BCS game because there is no league championship game to sweat in December. With the addition of West Virginia and TCU and the apparent resurgence of Texas, the Big 12 appears to have more depth than the SEC and a 9-0 conference record will be difficult.
For instance, OU plays K-State, Texas, West Virginia, Oklahoma State, and TCU, plus the league�s lesser lights. Alabama has the Nov. 3 showdown with LSU, three games with other Western Division opponents, plus Tennessee and Missouri. Georgia has South Carolina and Florida, three other Eastern Division opponents, plus Ole Miss and Auburn.
The way this sets up, the Atlantic Coast Conference is in the best position to benefit and the winner of No. 4 Florida State vs. No. 10 Clemson this week will be in the driver�s seat. Both have a game remaining against Virginia Tech � repeating a theme here, the Hokies ran for 59 yards in a loss to Pittsburgh � but the irony is that the SEC could ruin the hopes of both FSU and Clemson. On the final weekend of the regular season, FSU plays Florida and Clemson plays South Carolina.
Positioning will be in sharper focus when the BCS standings are first released Oct. 14.
On the individual front, Matt Barkley loosened his grip on the Heisman Trophy when he completed less than 50 percent of his passes and the Trojans converted only 1-of-13 third downs last week. Virginia Tech quarterback Logan Thomas dropped out of the picture, completing 14-of-31. The stock of Michigan State�s Bell took a hit. So did that of Wisconsin�s Ball, who was a fall-back choice until his touchdown streak ended at 21 games.
Based strictly on stats compiled vs. inferior opposition, West Virginia quarterback Geno Smith and Oregon�s do-everything De�Anthony Thomas are the early leaders. Smith has completed 87 percent of his passes with five touchdowns and no interceptions. Thomas is averaging 17.5 yards per try on his 13 carries and 14 yards per on his 11 receptions.

Woody Allen's new "Blue Jasmine" is expanding to theaters nationwide this weekend, having launched with very high per-screen averages last week in New York and Los Angeles -- the highest in the writer-director's 44-film career.
After such a strong start, it's possible the movie, which stars Cate Blanchett as a society woman fallen on hard times, could set a new high-water mark for total box-office take for a Woody Allen movie, too.
But what's the figure he'll have to beat?
Check out the photo gallery to see the director's top 10 box-office hits. Some of the titles may surprise you.
Most of the New York-based filmmaker's works have been more critical darlings than box-office champs, but Allen's 44 feature films have amassed a half a billion dollars in total box office in the U.S. and Canada alone.
They have also earned him a striking number of Oscar nominations -- 23 for Allen himself, as writer, director and actor, and many more than that for his movies' many stars.

(Part 5 of 5)
"Exorcism" is second on the list of "Comebacks of 2008" according to prognosticators who analyze future trends. The casting out of demons appears before streetcars, beagles, men's hats, wooden stoves, cuff links, the Jackson Five, and 14 other hopefuls. The silicone implant tops the list of 20. Given the rise of demonic activity occurring throughout the earth, the largest professed Christian religion in the world, the Catholic Church, has decided to wrestle the Devil for his pitchfork.
"For the first time in almost 400 years," an article discussing the subject reports, "the Vatican has formally revised and upheld the rite of exorcism." It continues, "'To fight the devil head on,' Pope Benedict XVI has sanctioned the first ever formal exorcism training, a ten-week course at Rome's Regina Apostolorum." And just what does the training involve?
"There are sessions on rites," the author retorts, "how to talk to the Devil and recognize his tricks." But what if they have a certifiable mental illness and are not in fact possessed? "No need to be concerned that people who are mentally ill might be misdiagnosed," says the article. "The course includes psychology classes where practitioners learn to distinguish between mental illnesses, such as schizophrenia, and genuine cases of possession." Hum. Sounds intriguing. But, before you book a flight to Rome and spend two and a half months warding off cans of pea soup, hold on to your holy water and read on. I might be able to save you some time and expense.
Any military strategist will tell you that in order to effectively fight your enemy you have to know your enemy and his weakness. The demons have made themselves your enemy. They hate you. "Our fight is not with people," says the Good Book, "it is against the leaders and the powers and the spirits of darkness in this world. It is against the demon world." (Eph. 6:12; New Life Version) Here's the 411 on the bad guys:
RESTRICTED: God 'punished the angels that sinned by throwing them into Tartarus,' also known as 'pits of dense darkness, to be reserved for judgment.' (2 Pet 2:4) In short, "the angels that sinned" by having sex with earth women were able to dematerialize and sidestep the Flood. Not so with their offspring. Being half human, they drowned. So the demon fathers experienced what was for them the horror of seeing their progeny, generations of them, die in the Flood. Being in Tartarus or 'dense restrictive darkness' they no longer have the power to materialize except ethereally for a few brief moments at best. That's why whenever someone has a brief encounter with a so-called "ghost" of a relative, the "departed soul" NEVER engages in long conversation.
Concerning the ancient Greek view of Tartarus, one reference work states: "In the Iliad, by the ancient poet Homer, the word tar´ta·ros denotes an underground prison as far below Hades as the earth is below heaven. Those confined in it were not human souls, but the lesser gods, spirits, namely, Cronus and the other Titans who had rebelled against Zeus (Jupiter). It was the prison established by the mythical gods for the spirits whom they had driven from the celestial regions." This is effectively a summation of what happened long before to these "angels that sinned" in the Bible. (2 Pet 2:4; Rev 12:7-12)
DECEPTIVE: The Devil is devious. He "pretends to be an angel of light," 'masquerading,' or 'disguising himself.' (2 Cor. 11:14; NIV; NASB; New International Reader's Version) The article quoted above identifies some things he and the demons use to entrap humans: "Ouija boards, Séances, Magic 8 balls, Palm reading, Tea Leaf reading, Fortune telling, potions, Incantations, Yoga (even as exercise), Martial Arts, Dungeons and Dragons, Harry Potter Books, Eastern Mysticism, Tarot cards," and Pookie's grandmother from Mississippi. (Okay, she may not have been mentioned in the article. But, when I was a child, she scared the bejesus out of me just the same!)
You should also be aware that things not mentioned here, and that may be sentimental (like that precious bracelet or necklace you got from your own demonized relative) may also attract the demons. One publication includes "books, magazines, movies, posters, and music recordings that encourage the practice of spiritism and make it seem appealing and exciting…amulets or other items worn for protection against evil." (See 1 Cor 10:21) In all likelihood you'll be disinclined to part with the item(s). Still, it's the best move you can make.
Granted, it could be an expensive move, as it was for the early Christians in Ephesus. Here's what they did: "And many of those who had practiced curious, magical arts collected their books and throwing them, book after book, on the pile burned them in the sight of everybody. When they counted the value of them, they found it amounted to 50,000 pieces of silver." (Acts 19:19; Amplified Bible)
VULNERABLE: The demons do have an Achilles' heel. They're terrified of God's name and all that it represents. "GOD'S name [JEHOVAH] is a place of protection-good people can run there and be safe." (Prov. 18:10; BCL; ASV; Young's) "You believe that God is one," writes the disciple James, "you do well. So do the demons believe and shudder in terror and horror!" (Jas 2:19; Amplified Bible) This brings us to…
DEMON DOOMSDAY: "'What do you want with us, Son of God?' they shouted. 'Have you come here to torture us before the appointed time?'" (Matt 8:29; NIV) A man possessed of demons expressed these words to Jesus. As stated above, the Devil and his demons know they are in the "pits of dense darkness…reserved for judgment," and ultimately, they have an appointment with eternal death. (2 Pet 2:4) Another translation has them complaining, "What business do you have giving us a hard time? You're the Son of God! You weren't supposed to show up here yet!" (BCL) See also Matt 25:41.
WHAT TO DO: "Yell a loud no to the Devil and watch him scamper," says James. "Say a quiet yes to God and he'll be there in no time." (Jas 4:7, 8; BCL) That's what Jesus did. "Get away from me, Satan!" he ordered. And after quoting a Scripture, sure enough, "Then the Devil left Jesus." (Matt 4:10, 11; NIRV) Along with following the instructions above, pray aloud using God's name Jehovah and the demons will "scamper." It's that's simple. A word of caution, though, to the hotshots:
Don't go challenging the demons! Some "exorcists" tried that on a demonized man in the Bible and almost got themselves raped! The account says that "the possessed man went berserk-jumped the exorcists, beat them up, and tore off their clothes. Naked and bloody, they got away as best they could." (Acts 19:13-20, BCL; compare Matt 7:21-23; Acts 16:16, 17)
So remember, knowledge is power, and self-imposed ignorance is a tragedy. Besides, "Satan, who is the god of this world, has blinded the minds of those who don't believe." (2 Co 4:4; NLT) Don't be blinded brothers, sisters, and others. And 'just say no' to supernatural sex! Stay up. Stay strong. God bless. Amen.

"Men can inherit heart disease from their father," BBC News has reported. The broadcaster said that a specific version of the Y chromosome, a genetic structure passed from father to son, can raise a man's heart disease risk by 50%.
This story is based on research that examined variation in the Y chromosome, a Y-shaped bundle of genetic material that makes a foetus develop into a male. Only men have a Y chromosome, and researchers thought that it may account for some of the variation in rates of heart disease between men and women. The researchers looked at the genetic variation in this chromosome in over 3,000 unrelated men, grouped them based on common variations, and then looked at associations between genetic type and risk of coronary artery disease. They found that in men with one particular variation, the odds of developing heart disease were 56% higher than in men from the other main genetic groups identified. This increase was independent of known risk factors for heart disease, including lifestyle and economic factors.
The results suggest that the genetics of the Y chromosome may contribute to a man's heart disease risk. However, this does not diminish the role of lifestyle and socioeconomic factors, many of which can be modified. The lifestyle changes required to reduce heart disease risk, such as not smoking, are well known and apply to everyone regardless of their genetic make-up.
Where did the story come from?
The study was carried out by researchers from the Universities of Leicester, Glasgow, Leeds and Cambridge, King's College London and other universities and institutes in Australia, France and Germany. The research was funded by the British Heart Foundation.
The study was published in the peer-reviewed medical journal The Lancet.
This research was covered appropriately by the media. The Independent, for example, emphasised that the results do not mean that men should ignore heart-healthy lifestyle advice based on their genetic risk factors. Genetics only contributes to part of a man's risk of developing heart disease, and adopting a healthier lifestyle can play a key part in preventing major cardiovascular problems.
What kind of research was this?
Human cells carry 23 pairs of chromosomes. These bundles of DNA together contain a person's full genetic code. Among them is one pair of chromosomes that determines gender, known as the sex chromosomes. We all carry at least one X-shaped sex chromosome. Women carry a second X chromosome and men instead have a shorter Y chromosome. So women have an XX combination, and men carry an XY combination.
As well as determining sex, the Y chromosome has also been linked to the cardiovascular system. In this study, researchers used a variety of techniques to look at the role of the Y chromosome in cardiovascular health. The research was performed as a series of case-control studies that used data from three separate studies:
- a cross-sectional study – a type of study that looks at various factors at a single point in time
- a prospective clinical trial – a type of study where participants are assigned a treatment or medication and then followed over time to see how they compare to participants using no treatment or an alternative treatment (in this case the trial involved people using statins, a type of cholesterol-lowering medication)
- a genome-wide association study – a type of study that looks for patterns linking people's genetic make-up to their risk of a particular disease (in this case it aimed to identify genetic variations that lead to developing coronary artery disease, or CAD)
What did the research involve?
The researchers examined the association between variation in the Y chromosome and risk of CAD. The study included 3,233 unrelated British men who were enrolled in one of three ongoing studies. Participants were either:
- cases – those who had a validated history of CAD or who developed CAD during the course of the original studies, or
- controls – participants who were matched to the cases based on age group and other factors
Both cases and controls had their genetic information mapped.
The researchers sorted the men into subgroups, called "haplogroups", according to genetic variation on their Y chromosomes. There are 13 major European haplogroups, each descended from different common genetic ancestors. The participants in these studies were found to belong to nine of these 13 major groups. The researchers then determined how the odds of having or developing heart disease varied across these main haplogroups.
The researchers adjusted their analysis to account for factors associated with heart disease, including age, blood pressure, body mass index, cholesterol levels, blood sugar levels, a history of diabetes, smoking status, alcohol consumption, and socioeconomic, education and employment status.
What were the basic results?
The study showed that:
- 17% of the men (both cases and controls) in the first study belonged to an ancestral group called haplogroup I. In the second study, 14.5% of the men belonged to this group.
- Men in haplogroup I had a 56% increased odds of developing coronary artery disease compared to men in any other genetic group (odds ratio [OR] 1.56, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.24 to 1.97, p=0.0002).
- Further analysis revealed that this increased risk was independent of other known risk factors. After calculations were carried out to account for these established factors, being in haplogroup I was the most significant predictor of heart disease.
- When analysing data from the genome-wide association study, the researchers found that, compared to the other haplogroups, men in haplogroup I had genetic differences in genes involved in immunity and inflammation responses.
How did the researchers interpret the results?
The researchers said that of all the main European Y chromosome lineages, "haplogroup I is associated with significantly increased risk of coronary artery disease compared to other ancient lineages", and that this may be due to a difference in genes related to immunity and the inflammation response.
The results of this study indicate that a specific genetic variation on the Y chromosome is associated with an increased risk of coronary artery disease (CAD). However, heart disease is a complicated condition with a wide variety of risk factors, including some that can be modified.
While genetic variation on the Y chromosome has been identified as a risk factor in this study, it is unlikely to be a predictor of heart disease on its own. The researchers themselves highlight that single risk factors are common in people with and without CAD, and that any single factor (either genetic or non-genetic) is unlikely to predict an individual's risk of developing the disease. In a positive step, many news sources prominently stated that the Y chromosome is likely to account for only part of a man's risk.
The researchers also say that their results need to be validated by further prospective studies, which would presumably examine participants' Y chromosome status and lifestyle factors and then follow them over time to see whether they developed CAD. According to the researchers, future research could help explain how genetic variation puts groups at risk by examining the role of differences in the immune and inflammatory responses. They also say that this finding may lead to the identification of targets for future CAD treatments. However, this would be a long way off.
While this research gives an insight into genetic variation and its role in CAD, it is unlikely to play an immediate part in addressing CAD in the UK. First, men are unlikely to know their specific haplogroup, so are unlikely to know whether they may be at increased risk of CAD. Second, there are many risk factors for CAD, and individuals cannot alter genetic factors. On the other hand, several lifestyle factors can be modified to try to reduce the risk of heart disease.
While no single factor can predict whether a person will develop CAD, people can reduce their risk by not smoking, eating healthy food, exercising regularly and maintaining a healthy weight.

Language Integrated Query (LINQ) to SQLWelcome to this installment of the .NET Nuts & Boltscolumn. The prior two articles have been an introduction toLINQ and LINQ to XML. This article will focus on anothervariation of LINQ, which is LINQ to SQL. LINQ to SQL allowsyou to query and manipulate objects associated withrelational database tables and is another valuable part ofthe LINQ family.
Introducing LINQ to Relational DataLINQ introduced the concept of a unified data accesstechnique to eliminate challenges of accessing data from adisparity of sources. LINQ has been extended to include theability to access relational data through LINQ to SQL andLINQ to Entities. LINQ to SQL offers a direct mapping tothe Microsoft SQL Server family of databases and allows youto query and manipulate objects associated with databasetables. LINQ to Entities offers a more flexible mapping torelational data stored in other databases beyond just SQLServer. You build against a conceptual schema that ismapped to an actual schema. The remainder of this articlewill concentrate on LINQ to SQL.
LINQ to SQL Object ModelLINQ to SQL allows you to query and manipulate objectsassociated with database tables. Creating an object modelinvolves creating a typed object that represents thedatabase connection along with classes that map to databaseentities. The following list of objects are involved:
- DataContext - A base class that is a disposable type that gets extended to represent a strongly typed connection to the database.
- Classes and Collections - Represent objects and collection of objects that map to database entities.
- Methods - Are used to extend classes or to represent stored procedure calls.
