|Reviews for State Watch
| letitbexo chapter 37 . 3/26/2012
I finally caught up with this story! I just want to say what a talented writer you are, dear! :D I also really like chapter 35... you push the envelope with the "race" thing, with the island girl and the Caucasian rapists, the disturbing comments they make towards her... Oh my. You are very brave to do that, and to do it in a way that isn't very offensive once I think about it. _
Pleeeeeaaaaase update as soon as possible! I want to see what'll happen betwen Nigel and Miss Pink Hair, especially!
| RabbitHash2016 chapter 35 . 3/25/2012
Hmmm...not sure what I think about this chapter other than they ruined a perfectly good piece by Harry Belafonte. Has it clicked in Alex's mind that what he did to Mrs. Alexander was the exact same darn thing as what's happening here, or is he too busy sweeping it under the rug as always?
| RabbitHash2016 chapter 34 . 3/25/2012
...What happened to that question about skipping over from 231 to 240? Where did it go?
| RabbitHash2016 chapter 33 . 3/25/2012
Just one thing here...'snuff it' means to die, so...Alex basically told Peggy to drop dead just now. (hides) Mmmaybe some edits would be in order?
| Nova Sinfonia chapter 37 . 3/17/2012
No, Miriam, he's not plastic! He has feelings too! ...and the "Lord Smartass" part made me grin...
But are there still ten State workers looking after Alex? Surely they don't need so many? Oh well. I'm looking forward to your next installment!
| Nova Sinfonia chapter 36 . 3/17/2012
Poor Nigel, falling for girls he's just met, when Miriam seems to have an interest in him, even if it's just to argue (and I like how one of them - Georgie was it? - called argument a "govoreet-drat". That was cute!)
| Nova Sinfonia chapter 35 . 3/17/2012
I forgot to mention... in the last chapter, you said the neighbourhood had East Indian people too. I know which one of my characters wouldn't mind dratsing with this gang! ;)
You said the girl in this chapter reminds you of Rihanna - like in the video for "Man Down"? There's another where she dresses a bit like Alex herself, but I forget the name of the song.
Anyway, speaking of music, is it a trend now for droogs to sing catchy songs before assaulting their female victims? That seems frightening, even more if Alex himself started the trend, but at least here he's the rescuer instead.
One thing I'm confused about: why did the "good" droogs need Nigel's permission before attacking the other gang? If it was an emergency, why did they wait for him to stop talking - couldn't they go ahead and then explain to him afterwards?
| Nova Sinfonia chapter 34 . 3/17/2012
Very interesting chapter! I have a few things to comment on.
First, Nigel not understanding Alex - "You have a rabbit in three rooms?" Must be very big rabbit! :)
Second, I liked the sweet moment with Peggy, and the funny one (again) with Nigel and Miriam. He's richer and she's poorer... also she's more sarcastic, and he's more serious... but that's not going to keep them apart, I hope!
Third, I have to agree with Nigel's comments to Alex at the end. I felt the same way about the expression "the old in-out" because in one way it's funny (for being both dirty and "reductio ad absurdum" I suspect), but also serious because Alex in his droog days doesn't distinguish at all between consensual sex and rape. It seems like it's all the same to him. Here, though, you have Alex and his gang catching the other droogs who commit crimes, so Nigel should at least appreciate them for that.
P.S. sorry for a rather long review, and "reductio ad absurdum" just means something like "reduced to absurdity". I never took Latin, but I kind of wish I had - maybe it would make French easier... anyway I'm only making this review longer now! :)
| BlackMambaaa chapter 37 . 3/16/2012
this was an entertaining chapter! I enjoyed, as always, the bickering between Nigel and Miriam, and it seems that things are slowly developing between the two! I'm excited!
| BlackMambaaa chapter 36 . 3/16/2012
I'm sorry, I forgot to mention in my last review how amusing the 'Ugly DeLarge' part was! Anyway, poor Nigel is disheartened after finding out the Caribbean beauty is engaged! Yet was still stubborn when Alex and his droogs mentioned the Pink-Haired girl! Stubborn, stubborn man!
| BlackMambaaa chapter 35 . 3/16/2012
YAY! This chapter was AMAZING! I thoroughly enjoyed seeing Alex and the droogs catching a gang and stopping a crime! I'm glad nothing happened to 'Rihanna' lol! Very great chapter!
| BlackMambaaa chapter 34 . 3/16/2012
HAHAHA I loved when Alex was purposefully using Nadsat at the beginning to annoy Nigel! LOL that was great! I also found it highly amusing when he saw Alex in his gang clothes for the first time :P and of course the girl with the pink hair returned! it's very amusing when those two argue! I liked the part where Pete asked him if he liked her :P I was happy to see Pete, Georgie, Dim and Julian in this chapter, as I've said before, I love the way you've incorporated them into the story! Nigel seemed very surprised by the fact that the other stooge have participated in rape before, but it's a very serious issue so I don't blame him! really well done Pet Archer, I'm excited to read more! :)
| BlackMambaaa chapter 33 . 3/16/2012
ooooh! who is the mysterious man? I'm at a loss, I can't think of who he might be! hmmmm. I loved the playful way Alex was with Peggy in this chapter :D and I like that Alex is getting his licence too :) when you said 'trying to defuse the tension' it made me think of Harry Potter when Fred Weasley says 'just trying to defuse the tension' LOL. and thank you for mentioning my story Pet Archer! you're the best!
| BlackMambaaa chapter 32 . 3/13/2012
That was hilarious! Hahahah I'm looking forward to reading more about Nigel and Miss Tompkins!
| BlackMambaaa chapter 31 . 3/13/2012
Ugh Lardface is such a perve! This chapter amused me though, I like the playfull way Alex is with Alex Jr. and Peggy! I also love that Junior is shy like his Mom (or Mum). I also liked that you showed the comparisons between Deltoid and Lardface's different reports :) Only one chapter to go :(

Just because you're past the age of dolls and Tonka trucks doesn't mean there isn't cool stuff in the toy aisle for you. Here are some gifts you might be interested in.
By PAMELA DAVIS
© St. Petersburg Times, published December 3, 2001
You may have visions of singing your heart out with e-kara, but your parents may be thinking about buying you a boring, itchy red sweater instead.
When will moms and dads learn that little kids aren't the only ones who want toys as holiday gifts? Older kids and teenagers like playthings, too.
You just have to tell them. They can't read your minds, you know.
Toywise, things are good for your age group these days. In the past, toymakers ignored the 'tween and teen market, but now they realize how valuable you are (actually how valuable your allowance is) and have been creating toys aimed at you.
Knowing you're too old to play with action figures (though you may still collect them), Barbie dolls and the like, toy companies have come out with a solid offering of games, activity sets and electronic gadgets that are better suited to your lifestyle.
Here are a few new toys you may be interested in receiving this holiday season (stock up on batteries):
Nemesis Factor (Hasbro, $19.99): This electronic game delivers 100 puzzles that require players to use logic, guessing and persistence. Once all the puzzles have been solved, a light at the top of the pinnacle will shine, indicating your victory over the game.
e-kara (Hasbro, $60): Put down that hairbrush you've been using as a microphone. Plug the portable e-kara karaoke microphone into any standard TV or VCR and perform. Each unit comes with a music cartridge featuring five songs. The words to the songs appear on the TV screen. Duet microphones, which allow you to hook up as many as 10 singers at once, are sold separately.
Tony Hawk Skateboard (Tyco, $59.99): Using a specially designed transmitter, you control the direction and speed of this 131/2-inch tall remote-controlled toy. A microprocessor allows the figure and the board to work together to perform stunts.
Incredible Shrinky Dinks Maker (Spin Master Toys, $29.99): Take things down a size or two with this little machine. It turns doodles, drawings and designs into real jewelry and decorations. It has a four-step process: trace, color, cut and shrink.
e-Brain (DSI Toy, $29.99): Get lonely working on the computer by yourself? Here's your electronic talking "personal companion." A special CD-ROM gives the e-Brain programming options such as storing and dialing phone numbers, tracking your schedule and playing games. There are no wires to plug in.
DJ Mixer (MGA Entertainment, $49.99): You can be the one to get the party started with the One Man Jam DJ Mixer. It includes two turntables, a built-in microphone, a cassette deck and speakers. You can create your own combination of music and add scratches and riffs, and broadcast through your radio on an AM frequency.
DJ Johnny Bot (Trendmasters, $59.99): You do the singing, the robot helps out with the music. The toy can be hooked up to a portable CD player, and you can sing along using its portable microphone. It's equipped with a DJ scratch disc and sound effects buttons.
Magnetic Poetry: The Game (Magnetic Poetry, $29.95): The game is packed in a refrigerator-shaped tin and features those little word tiles found on fridges everywhere. Players select subject cards, race against a timer to create poems on the metal playing board and earn points for each tile used.
e.chat (Tiger, $29.99): Designed like a personal data assistant, e.chat is really a secret messenger. Each e.chat comes with a stylus that allows you to tap out your message on the touch pad and send it to a friend's e.chat unit. It also features a phone book, note pad, calculator and clock.
Screamin Serpent Roller Coaster (K'Nex, $89.99): Build a huge replica of a steel-style roller coaster complete with twists, turns and loops. It is more than 61/2 feet long, 21/2 feet wide and 31/2 feet tall. The battery-powered motor pulls the coaster up the incline. A sound module creates real coaster sounds and screams.
Password Journal 2 (Girl Tech, $24.99): Others may try to open it, but only the owner's voice can access it with the spoken password. Features an intruder alert, a calendar and a light.

Close-up: A Fresh Take on the Driftwood Collection
My parents collected driftwood when I was little. The varied, contorted pieces were displayed in a rock garden at the entrance of our home. Which was nice and all but just looked a little, well, predictable. This display, however, from an Apartment Therapy house tour, is striking in its originality:
It takes the popular sunburst frame and recreates it out of ocean-worn pieces of wood. The wonderful display is from Lindsay's Beach Girl Haven.
Do you have any collected pieces of driftwood? Have you found any similarly creative ways to display them?

hello, I bought a really mini-version of one of these a few years ago as a temporary tree before we decorated our lounge. potted it on and then left it outside for the rest of the year. because it grew so big, transplanted it into garden and now it's nearly 5ft tall !!! it's doing really well, has put on a lot of growth this year as well.
am definitely NOT bringing it back inside.
good luck with yours
hello, if you happen to be in a part of the UK that is currently getting really warm weather at the moment, I'd be watering this every day or at least every other day.
I'd also check for creepy crawlies around the plant although they don't usually have many problems, if it doesn't get any better, maybe it was poorly before you bought it and has only just come to light. you could wait another week or so, then if it doesn't improve, take it back to the shop.
Ooppps, I took 2 x off it yesterday but there's one still in flower.
can I dry the ones I chopped ???
I've read that Earwigs could also be a problem especially with the Dahlias. according to what I've read, you place a cane with an upturned pot filled with straw them remove it next day and you should see a few of these pests. you will see the slug problem getting better the drier it gets, but they do like to hide under dense foliage, so you could also try looking under the foliage of other plants and winkle them out that way.
hello, because we've had such a warm early summer, all my plants have flowered and are now setting seeds. I've cut down some stalks of my lupins and was wondering whether I could save the seed heads for next year ?
if so, how do I dry them because the pods are all furry at the moment.
thanks, shaz
Personally, I would dig the whole lot up and let it die before composting it. Make sure you get all the roots out. if you must have it, put it somewhere where it won't take all the moisture/nutrients from around your favourite plants. Get it away from your Acer asap. This appeared in one of my large pots without me noticing probably a seed dropped by birds, and took over the whole pot/plant, it's a real thug. I think they look good around the margins of ponds.
Looking at your almost dead shrub, when was it planted ??
If it is fairly recent, you need to keep watering it regularly for at least 12 x months or so until it is well established. Perhaps where you've put the Sambucus is too dry an area for it.
Hope you manage to sort something out soon, good luck.
Steve, have you tried the nursery run by volunteers around the Sketty entrance to Singleton Gardens where the botanical gardens are situated or maybe the entrance to Swansea Market ???
I've seen a few plants being sold there by the Veg man.
I also live in Swansea
thanks for all the advice, i'll see if I can find room in the border for the Courgetts
some great advice. going to try website first.
don't really want to make money just recoup the cost of the pots/compost. it all gets really expensive when you add it all up over the years.
my OH quite ruthless, says I should either bin the cuttings (he's a non-gardener) or charge for all the plants I pot up.
only going to charge a nominal fee otherwise I don't think i'll get many offers.
i'll let you know how I get on.
cheers, shazza
hello and thank for your advice.
as I don't have a big family & none of them are really interested in gardening anyway, though I could just charge a nominal fee say 50p or £1.00 per pot as they all have at least 2/3 cuttings in them just to cover the cost of the post really.
certainly don't want to make it a business !!!
it's just that I can't bear to compost perfectly healthy cuttings, it's like binning your babies !!!
I may put them on somewhere like Gumtree (local to my area) and see what happens. if I get no interest, will advertise for free instead.
think I'm going to have to be a bit more ruthless in future when babies spring up alongside the parents.
thanks, anyway.

Lemon Cake
The buttermilk in this luscious lemon cake produces a moist yet fluffy crumb. Time-saver: For cake anytime, make this ahead and freeze it. Wrap completely cooled layers well in plastic wrap; store frozen for up to 4 months. Thaw and frost as desired.
Total Time:
Level: Moderate
Yield: One 4-layer cake
- 3 c. cake flour
- 1½ tsp. baking powder
- 1 tsp. salt
- ½ tsp. baking soda
- 1 c. butter
- 2½ c. sugar
- 5 eggs
- ½ tsp. vanilla extract
- ¼ c. lemon juice
- ¾ c. buttermilk
- Almost Homemade Buttercream
- Lemon curd, raspberry jam, or icing
- Heat oven to 350 degrees F. Butter and flour 2 parchment-paper-lined 8-inch cake pans. Set aside.
- Sift the flour, baking powder, salt, and baking soda together. Set aside. Beat the butter and sugar until light and fluffy using a mixer set on medium speed. Add the eggs, one at a time. Beat in the vanilla extract. Reduce mixer speed to low and add the flour mixture by thirds, alternating with the lemon juice and buttermilk.
- Divide the batter between the pans. Bake until golden and a toothpick tests clean, about 45 to 50 minutes. Cool in the pans on a wire rack for 20 minutes. Unmold the cakes and cool completely.
- Split cakes into 4 layers using a long serrated knife. Fill with lemon curd, jam, or icing. Apply crumb coat and Almost Homemade Buttercream frosting (see below) and decorate as desired.
Nutritional information is based on one 2-inch slice of cake.
- How to apply the crumb coat and frosting: 1. TRIM the top of the cake with a long serrated knife to make it level. Flip (the bottom becomes the top) to create a flat surface. 2. CUT cake in half; spread one half with icing, lemon curd, or jam 3. TOP with other half, then crumb coat with a thin layer of icing. 4. START on the side and apply a 1/4-inch-thick layer of icing, a little at a time, holding the offset spatula vertically. 5. MOVE a teaspoon through the icing to create S-shape swirls.

Former presidential candidate Herman Cain tells National Review Online that Mitt Romney should tap Representative Allen West of Florida as his vice-presidential nominee. "[West] has a military background, he tells it like it is, and he's not afraid to challenge the status quo," he says.
Beyond West, Cain also likes Representative Paul Ryan of Wisconsin for veep, but the former Godfather's Pizza CEO advises Romney to avoid picking Senator Rob Portman of Ohio.
Portman, he warns, would not energize conservatives. "If Romney picks a person who is going to deflate the base, rather than inspire the base, we'll be in trouble," Cain says. "Most people don't really know Portman. You've got to pick someone exciting, someone with bold ideas."
Trying to get a reaction, I asked him if he's open to being Romney's running mate. "Never say 'never,'" he chuckles. "But I wouldn't want to be a distraction. I'm still trying to clear up the false accusations against me. I'm trying to get to the bottom of it, trying to find out the source."
Earlier today, Cain officially endorsed Romney in a brief press conference at the Capitol Hill Club in Washington. He was joined by Representative Michele Bachmann of Minnesota and Representative Steve King of Iowa, both of whom expressed desire for Republican unity.
Cain recently met with Romney in Boston. He told the former Massachusetts governor that replacing the tax code must be a priority. "He's at least considering that," he says. "I told him that it's not enough to reform the tax code; [conservative activists] want to replace it."

One of my favorite educational sites is Vocabulary and Spelling City. In fact I've talked about it on here before. Today I want to tell you about one of my favorite features in this site, the student writing practice section.
This section gives you many options for having your students practice their penmanship and improve their writing skills. They are also learning to spell the words on their spelling list through these activities. There are even sentence writing and paragraph writing videos to help your student's improve their technique. You can also create printable worksheets for your students.
It doesn't matter what age group you are teaching, these activities can be tailored to fit any learning level.

Woops. Forgot some other points. One can hide axioms in other ways, e.g., stuffing them into an annotation (string or xml literal). Obviously, these have conversion, manipulation, and retrieval issues as well, as well as being substantively more difficult to implement. More importantly, they cannot be used for the multiple view approach. Cheers, Bijan.Received on Friday, 23 January 2009 21:40:00 UTC

Hutong West
In search of macro-fauna
1241 hrs.
I have said this in other fora, and as my book Public Relations in China goes to bookstores I am getting questions from media and others that have caused me to lay out the following disclaimer:
- I am not a "China expert."
There is no such thing as a "China expert."
Anyone who comes to you claiming to be a "China expert" is either deluded (and thus to be pitied), lying (and thus suspect), or out to separate you from your money (and thus to be avoided.)
You don't have to believe me. Dr. Fan Gang, the head of China's National Economic Research Institute and the Secretary-General of the China Reform Foundation (among many other titles), once said as much to a reporter when she asked Dr. Fan and I whether, "as China experts," we saw China's economy improving or in decline in coming years. He denied being a China expert, told the reporter that he knew I agreed, and questioned the very existence of anyone who could claim the title of a China experts.
China is too large, too old, and too complex to be sufficiently understood by a single individual. At the very most, we can be "specialists." We can never be "experts."
When doing business in China, you thus cannot rely on the counsel of a single individual, regardless of how experienced, well-connected or erudite. Instead, seek and genuinely consider the advice of a range of people of different backgrounds, and in so doing form your own view based on a synthesis of their views.
China "experts" will only get you into trouble.

Facebook-owned retro snaps site Instagram has shot itself in the foot by adopting new terms of service (as of January 16, 2013) that implies it could sell your photos without your explicit permission and without you receiving a penny. There is, according to @JonSatriani a massive market for unique hipster tee-shirts with Instagram snaps on them 😉
If that annoys you beyond belief then it's time to download your hoard of blurry and retro-filtered photos and delete your account. I have been using IFTTT to grab a copy of all my Instragram photos as they upload so I have a backup already, but you might like to try Instaport if you want to keep copies before deleting your Instagram account.
Next step is to head over to the Instagram "delete my account" page and follow the instructions.
To be honest, I'm not going to do this just yet, it's possible that Facebook/Instagram will recognise just how obnoxious they're being in light of modern attitudes to copyright and creative commons etc and change their minds before the deadline, especially given the massive and growing outcry.

The Obama administration has the worst track record when it comes to prosecuting whistleblowers. Obama once claimed he'd work hard to have a transparent government, but many have faced retaliation for revealing controversial government information. Sibel Edmonds, who is a whistleblower, waited 340 days for FBI clearance of her memoir but finally released it on her own. Edmonds, founder of the National Security Whistleblowers Coalition, joins us for more.

The course on how to use excel continues with a video computer lesson on reviewing and sharing excel workbooks. This video tutorial made by gcflearnfree.org demonstrates a company excel worksheet that is being shared and collaborated on by colleagues. The lesson shows that by using the review tab colleagues can make changes to excel cells that everyone can see using the track changes commands and also leave comments that others can see and read. These changes can be reviewed on the excel workbook at the end of the project and can then be accepted or rejected before being finalized, an extremely useful feature in Excel 2010.
A useful computer lesson for those wishing to learn how to use excel for use in the workspace or for using with others. [Read more…]

A RADICAL overhaul of Scotland's most famous street has been ordered by city council leaders in the capital – following widespread criticism of its condition in recent years.
Traffic bans, widening pavements, clamping down on "tartan tat" shops and bringing neglected closes back into use are all being considered to help revive the Royal Mile.
Council leaders say they want to hand much more space over to pedestrians by extending the parts that are closed to vehicles.
A year after a summit was called to address long-running complaints over the decline of the showpiece thoroughfare, the new blueprint suggests significant change on almost every part of the Royal Mile.
Council leaders say they want to transform the Royal Mile from an under-achieving tourist attraction to the "world's best cultural living street" under a plan expected to be implemented from the autumn of this year.
Key aims include persuading the droves of tourists who descend on Edinburgh Castle to visit the bottom of the Royal Mile, and doing more to promote the area outwith the peak summer months.
Measures have been devised to tackle overcrowding on the pavements of the Lawnmarket and Castlehill, where traffic restrictions are likely to be introduced. Plans to clamp down on antisocial behaviour and late-night disorder in the middle section of the Royal Mile will address concerns about begging and disruption from nightspots and "party flats".
Tough rules to tackle rubbish left out on the street and unsightly "clutter" used to promote "tartan tat shops" are also expected to be brought in.
In the bottom half of the Royal Mile, motorists and taxi drivers face restrictions, banning them from the stretch between Niddry Street and St Mary's Street, while the council is also looking to lower the speed limit.
Traffic calming measures are being explored for the junction where the Scottish Parliament building meets the Palace of Holyroodhouse. Among the more controversial measures are likely to be curbing parking levels on Edinburgh Castle esplanade, which is the responsibility of Historic Scotland, relocating bus tours off the Royal Mile, and trying to turn the lower part of the Royal Mile into a "low emissions zone" to reduce traffic levels.
A new Royal Mile Charter is also expected to be drawn up with businesses over the next year in a bid to reach agreement on how to tackle graffiti, problems with trade waste and display of goods outside shops.
Last year's Royal Mile summit, held at the Hub building on Castlehill, heard a string of complaints that the Royal Mile was letting down the capital's tourism industry due to poor-quality road surfaces, unsafe and unwelcoming historic closes, and the quality of its shops.
The event triggered the appointment of a Royal Mile manager to liaise with businesses and a spring clean to tackle long-standing graffiti, shabby signage and unnecessary clutter.
The council has already tackled shops blasting out loud music and flouting rules on the display of goods outside, but it is hoped a voluntary code of conduct will help curb these problems further.
Ian Perry, the city's planning leader, said: "I remember there was a lot of opposition to the proposals to close part of the Royal Mile in the 1990s, but I don't think anyone would be in favour of things going back to where they were at that time.
"Our general thinking is to make things much more pedestrian-friendly by giving more space over to people to walk about. It is pedestrians that go to shops and cafes, not cars.
"Only around a third of the people who go to the castle make it to the bottom of the Royal Mile. We want to try to get that figure much higher."
Section 1: Castlehill
Problems: Poor maintenance, traffic congested, conflict between pedestrians and vehicles, poor signage.
Solutions: Give pedestrians priority, restrict vehicle access, relocate coach parking from esplanade to Johnstone Terrace.
Section 2: Lawnmarket
Problems: Pavements narrow and congested with pedestrians, poor maintenance, too many tourist shops cluttering pavements with their wares.
Solutions: Restrict vehicle access to Lawnmarket, widen pavements. Impose new charter on "street clutter" from retailers. New controls on council-leased premises. Clampdown on advertising boards.
Section 3: Civic zone
Problems: Disruption from "night-time economy", build-up of trade waste, lack of tourists outwith summer.
Solutions: Stricter controls over trade waste, year-round marketing.
Section 4: High Street zone
Problems: Traffic congestion at North Bridge junction. Homeless people and beggars intimidating people. Too many coaches picking up passengers.
Solutions: Create pedestrian, cycle and bus zone between Niddry Street and St Mary's Street. Relocate traffic lights at main North Bridge junction to improve pedestrian safety. Explore possibility of a low emissions zone.
Section 5: Canongate/Holyrood
Problems: Narrow pavements, poor road surface, too many buses/coaches, poor street lighting, poor variety of shops, shortage of tourists in off-peak months.
Solutions: Traffic-calming measures at Canongate Kirk and neighbouring museums. Explore plans for traffic calming/pedestrian priority measures at junction of Holyroodhouse and Scottish Parliament building. New lighting.
Section 6: Closes and wider hinterland
Problems: Lack of shops and open spaces, poor lighting,
antisocial behaviour and people sleeping rough.
Solutions: Encourage more shops to open. Talks with police and other bodies on strategy for curbing antisocial behaviour.

TRL Craveworthy
by Larry Carroll
John Travolta's Chili Palmer is a fearless character whose humor stems from having worn more hats than LL Cool J. A debt collector trying to rustle up the dough for a Hollywood blockbuster? A film veteran commenting on the ruthlessness of the music industry? The jokes would seem to write themselves for "Get Shorty" and its new sequel, "Be Cool"; it's only appropriate, then, that Travolta would want to be surrounded by as many real-life Chilis as possible.
Although none of them have ever spent time in the mafia (that they'll admit to, anyway), the cast of "Be Cool" knows what it's like to take the leap toward a different career. Grammy-winning Outkast member Andre 3000, cast in the film as gun-happy gangster Dabu, is even using different names to presumably keep track of which day he's doing what. "Andre 3000 is the 'Hey Ya!' guy," the star said. "He's the entertainer type of music man or whatever. And Andre Benjamin is that guy. He's the film guy."
MTV Exclusive Clip: Christina Milian shakes her stuff in "Be Cool."
More clips from "Be Cool."
Passing Andre in the opposite lane is the Rock, going from actor to singer after successfully engineering the seemingly impossible wrestling-to-screen transition that reduced names like Roddy Piper and Hulk Hogan to Trivial Pursuit answers. While portraying Elliot, a proud, gay bodyguard with a fondness for cowboy songs, the beefy leading man sang Loretta Lynn's "You Ain't Woman Enough (To Take My Man)" for the film's soundtrack. "I made it," he said, smiling. "That's my dream, being a singer now." The Rock claims that acting is his primary focus, but those who remember him belting out "Are You Lonesome Tonight?" on "Saturday Night Live" a few years back know that the star boasts some formidable pipes to go along with those biceps.
It wasn't long ago that such an attempted crossover risked backlash from a public that usually perceived the move as greedy, egomaniacal or just plain stupid. Superstars like Eddie Murphy, Madonna and Bruce Willis tried to persuade the world to look at them through new eyes, only to have many of their fans turn away in disgust.
Then, brazenly stepping over the smoldering remains of Jennifer Love Hewitt
Let's Go Bang
CDs and Mick Jagger "Freejack" DVDs, Jennifer Lopez made history by simultaneously capturing the nation's #1 movie ("The Wedding Planner") and album (
J. Lo
) in 2001.
For a young, aspiring hyphenate like singer-actress Christina Milian (who co-wrote the song "Play" for that historic Lopez album), the timing has never been better. "I feel very fortunate," she said of her role in "Be Cool" as Linda Moon, an aspiring vocalist. "Now I get to sing and act in one film, and I hope my career keeps going this way."
Milian, now with four featured movie roles and two LPs on her résumé, didn't have to search very hard to find inspiration for her character. "Linda Moon and I are so much alike," she said. "I think a lot of people get to know me in a very special way through this movie and get to see my talent."
She plans to continue blurring the lines, displaying synergy skills that would impress Rupert Murdoch as she promotes "Cool" and the Tommy Lee Jones comedy "Man of the House" while simultaneously talking up her next album. "Movies, music, both," she laughed. "I'm going into the studio in March to work on my next album. I get to work with L.A. Reid and Jay-Z on the album, so I think we're going to have a great outcome on this next one."

More photos from "Be Cool."
Christina, along with names including Mandy Moore, Lindsay Lohan and Beyoncé, have stampeded through the door that J. Lo kicked in a few years ago; if you think it's only twentysomething females blurring the lines, however, think again. "I needed to be cool," smiled Steven Tyler, who plays a pivotal role in the film. "We took a year off, and it's been a little too long without me."
The Aerosmith singer decided that the time was right to take on his highest-profile acting gig yet, because the camera is the closest thing to a microphone that can give Tyler the adrenaline rush he craves. "[Both get] energy going on for me. Somebody called me up and told me about this whole format, and I get to play myself, and it's actually the music industry. And I was just there."
With Tyler acting, the Rock singing and Andre 3000 and Christina Milian ready to go either way, the stars say that "Be Cool" always seemed as if it were on the verge of turning into a musical. Director (and music video veteran) F. Gary Gray instead chose to indulge the urge by filming an erotic dance number between Travolta and leading lady Uma Thurman, with the Black Eyed Peas onstage to provide the groove behind them.
"Aerosmith ... Andre ... Black Eyed Peas ..." Thurman marveled. "It was like being hit over the head repeatedly with a golden baseball bat."
The leggy star, hoping to harness her newfound inspiration, made plans to keep her dancing shoes strapped on while getting her vocal cords into shape. "I just love to sing and dance, and if I can do that I would be so happy," she said of her newest starring role, opposite Matthew Broderick and Nathan Lane in the big-screen incarnation of "The Producers" musical.
" 'The Producers' is pretty much the most fun I've had in my life," Thurman said. "And I'm only rehearsing." Could the Rock be the next Andre 3000? Could Christina Milian be the next Uma Thurman? Answering the question of who they think they are, these talents choose to quote Chili Palmer from "Get Shorty": "I'm the guy who's telling you the way it is."

View Thread: Sound Recorder
There is a work-around. In Sound Recorder, record a short audio clip. Then, move the slider to the beginning of the clip and press Ctrl+C, then Ctrl+V. If you do that a few times, the length of the clip will grow exponentially, and you can record for much longer.
(By the way, this problem is fixed in Vista.)

The subject of this post is the entrenchment of sexual perversion in American law and how that is reflected in the ideological make-up of the various regions of this great but threatened nation. I am talking specifically about Bestiality, which is legal in 36% of American states.
Bestiality is a misdemeanor in the following 19 states (or territories):
Alaska; California; Colorado; Connecticut; Florida; Iowa; Kansas; Louisiana; Maine; Maryland; Minnesota; Nebraska; New York; North Dakota; Oregon; Pennsylvania; Utah; Virgin Islands; and Wisconsin
Bestiality is charged as a felony in these 16 states (or territories) :
Arizona; Deleware; Georgia; Illinois; Indiana; Massachusetts; Michigan; Mississippi; North Carolina; Oklahoma; Puerto Rico; Rhode Island; South Carolina; South Dakota; Tennessee; and Washington
Bestiality is completely legal in the following 18 states, districts, and territories:
Alabama; Arkansas; Washington, D.C.; Guam; Hawaii; Kentucky; Montana; Nevada; New Hampshire; New Jersey; New Mexico; Ohio; Texas; Vermont; Virginia; West Virginia; and Wyoming
The ideological thrust of these Bestiality Fifth Columnists is obvious when one compares where this perversion is accepted to those places where Same-Sex Marriages are banned. In 55% of the states wherein Bestiality is legal, Same Sex Marriage is not. The states which do not criminalize Bestiality, yet ban Same Sex Marriage are as follows:
Kentucky; Montana; New Jersey; Nevada; Ohio; Texas; Virginia; West Virginia; and Wyoming (Note: New Jersey does permit Civil Unions.)
In clear contrast, Bestiality is illegal in the 12 states where Same Sex Marriage is accepted. These states are as follows:
California; Connecticut; Delaware; Iowa; Maine; Maryland; Massachusetts; Minnesota; New York; Rhode Island; Vermont; and Washington
Only 3 states do not ban Bestiality but do endorse Same Sex Marriage, thus straying from the above pattern. These states are:
New Hampshire; New Mexico; and Vermont (in the case of New Mexico, there are no laws on the books either endorsing or banning Same Sex Marriage so it's actual sexual/ideological orientation is currently ambiguous).
* * * * *
So we are left with a burning question. Is there a correlation between being pro-Bestiality and rabidly Homophobic? Is it possible that approving of or actively practicing Bestiality turns one into a Homophobe? The statistics suggest one, or the other, or both.

When it comes to hustling her sexiness as a Latina pornstar, Mia Hurley is an expert. She started performing for her fans back in 2013, and this cutie knows how to make your balls explode. Her hot figure stands 5'5" with a bubble butt on her backside and B-cup titties up top. A sexy brunette surfer, Mia rocks the shortest shorts possible when the summer heat is beating down on her beach body. The rush of having sex in public soaks her panties, though in the movies, she prefers secluded wooded areas rather than in the sand and under the boardwalk.
Mia was definitely feeling frisky in her scene for Public Pickups 6. It's a Mofos release where a random guy strolls up behind her while she's walking to work. They end up banging in the bushes with their fingers crossed, hoping that no one discovers them. Gina Devine also stars in that one and it's scorching hot from start to finish.
In the flick Petite Chick Stretched By Black Monster Dicks 4, Jon Jon's massive cock blasts Mia's box to maximum capacity. She's sexy as fuck in any position, but when she's bent over with her panties around her ankles, I'm at a loss for words. Her tattooed skin seems to shine when his big black schlong penetrates her from behind.

Mare, what is it with Floridians? Every time you enter one of their contests, they bug you with phone calls. Had someone today call about "Tampa Resorts" offering 70% off vacation package deals. Said they got my name from some contest I'd entered. (Bet he doesn't call again, though, cuz I read him the riot act) Then again, he might not have understood me; I certainly had trouble understanding him! Finally got the name Edgar! Anyway, beware of Florida contests. Obviously, they don't get enough visitors already and have to resort to phone solicitations.

Hindi movie Ek Villain starring Sidharth Malhotra, Riteish Deshmukh and Shraddha Kapoor in lead roles, has cleared the weekdays test. The movie, which crossed Rs 50 crore mark in its first weekend, has made a fantastic collection at the Indian Box Office on Monday and Tuesday. Its business from 2539 screens on these days is far better the collection of big-ticket movies like Holiday and Humshakals from 3500 screens.
When compared to its opening day collection, Ek Villain witnessed more than 50% drop on Monday, but its fourth day business was much better than that of Holiday and Humshakals. Bollywood trade analyst Taran Adarsh tweeted, "#EkVillain passes 'Monday test' with flying colors. Wknd 50.70 cr, Mon 8.10 cr. Total: Rs 58.8 cr nett. India biz. MONSTROUS HIT!"
However, Ek Villain had a further drop of 15% on Tuesday. With this, the movie has crossed Rs 65 crore mark in the domestic market in five days. So far, the film has collected Rs 65.60 crores nett at the Indian Box Office. Its breakup is Rs 16.72 cr on Fri, Rs 16.54 cr on Sat, Rs 17.44 cr on Sun, Rs 8.10 cr in Mon and Rs 6.80 cr in Tue.
Ek Villain has two days to conclude the first week. Trade expert predict that the film would collect Rs 10+ crores at the Indian Box Office in the next two days, taking its first week domestic total to Rs 75 crores. The movie is expected to cross Rs 100 crore mark in the domestic market in the second week.

State Inspector General Kristine Hamann, who had been brought in by Gov. Eliot Spitzer to be the state's internal watchdog, submitted her resignation today effective April 10.
"Since my appointment, the Office of the State Inspector General has achieved a substantial record of accomplishment of which I am most proud," said Hamann.
In a statement, Gov. David Paterson "thanked Ms. Hamman for her service to the State of New York," said Paterson spokesman Errol Cockfield.
The governor has asked Dennis E. Martin to serve as Acting Inspector General for the interim period until he makes a permanent appointment. Martin is currently Special Deputy to the Inspector General.
Hamann was appointed by former Gov. Eliot Spitzer and came into office February 2007. She came under fire from Republicans who faulted her for not completing her investigation of last summer travel records scandal. Hamann said that because the investigation involved her direct supervisor, Richard Baum, there was a conflict of interest. She concurred, however, with Attorney General Andrew Cuomo's report on the matter.
During Hamann's tenure as IG, her office tripled its caseload and uncovered misconduct at the Dept. of Labor, Dept, of Health, CUNY, Office of General Services, Office of Mental Retardation and Developmental Disabilities. The IG released a report about misconduct in crane testing yesterday.
From 1998 until her appointment as New York State's Inspector General, Hamann served as the Executive Assistant District Attorney to District Attorney Robert M. Morgenthau in the Manhattan District Attorney's Office. She was responsible for legislation, budget, community affairs and criminal justice policy on topics such as DNA testing, domestic violence, the establishment of a Child Advocacy Center and arrest processing.
Hamann held several previous positions in the New York County District Attorney's Office, including Deputy Chief of the Trial Division in charge of the Criminal Court, Director of Training, and Deputy Bureau Chief of the Career Criminal Bureau. She spent her first 12 years in the office as an active trial lawyer. Prior to joining the D.A.'s office, she worked as an associate at Simpson Thacher and Bartlett.

Count of Handkerchiefs Handkerchiefs are made by cloth, and cloth are made by yarns. Count is the number of yarn. The more yarn, the fine and closely woven of the cloth. So the more count, the better quality of the handkerchiefs. Usually, 60S or above handkerchiefs are middle and top grade. It¡¯s good for self-use or gift. Handkerchiefs are graded by the count of yarn. The more count, the finer yarn, and the thinner and softer of the handkerchiefs. Double yarn or other special textile craft an exception. So the handkerchief is not thicker the better. In principle, the handkerchief is thinner more expensive. The most expensive handkerchief, it¡¯s single layer is transparent to light.2. Maintenance For HandkerchiefsThere will be a slight fade when washing the dark color handkerchiefs at the first time. So please wash it separately. Meanwhile, please do not use hot water or larger alkaline cleaning products. To put some salt in the water can enhance the color fastness. Handkerchiefs are made by cotton, so gauffer is inevitable. After washing, level it, and heal it after it¡¯s dry. If conditions permit, the best method is to iron it after washing, and the handkerchiefs will be kept as new. To use fe...
Deluxe White 16" x 16" Glow Silk Dupioni Pocket Square - ROYAL SILK®
Brand: Royal Silk Model: 1371 Color: White
All silk pocket squares are not made the same. In this case, the majestic color, glow, dazzle, and sheen of our elegant silk pocket square will create looks that are bold, smart, refined, and sophisticated. The classic white color glows with a unique, iridescent luminosity like that of no other silk or fabric. Most silk pocket squares are fashioned in any number of soft, lightweight silks such as Satin, Jacquard, Habutai, Twill, Crepe, or China Silk.

So this full-sized white pocket square by Royal Silk®, in size 16" x 16", gives you the ability to style not only bold, crisp folds but dashing, spiffy, lively poufs and drapes as well. The smaller, light-weight pocket squares typically sold by our competitors will simply not give you the same impactful looks and styles.

Since the early 30s, Dupioni Silk has been a star fabric in numerous storied weddings, Broadway musicals, and Hollywood movies. Even to this day, Dupioni Silk is a choice fabric for wedding apparel and accessories. With poper care, this pure silk pocket square will last for decades. From South India and made for Royal Silk®.

Dallas Stars (3-5-1, 7 pts) @ Colorado Avalanche (4-4-0, 8 pts)
Pepsi Center, Denver, Colorado
The Avalanche
Goals – 20th, Goals Against – 11th, Power Play – 30th, Penalty Kill – 22nd
For Dallas, there might not be a better time to play the Colorado Avalanche. The Avs have been riddled with injuries lately as captain Gabriel Landeskog has a head injury (possibly a concussion) and Steve Downie went down with a year-ending ACL injury. Last season's point leader Ryan O'Reilly continues to hold out and David Jones has a nagging knee issue (though he could play tonight).
Despite those injuries, the Avs have managed to win their last games and put up some of their highest goal totals of the season. Paul Stastny and P.A Parenteau have raised their games and carried the team in the absence of the other offensive leaders.
Dallas has to especially watch out for Matt Duchene though. He's been a killer against the Stars the past few seasons and currently leads the Avs in points.
Semyon Varlamov is the likely starter in goal tonight for Colorado. He's won only one of his last four starts and has a 0-1-2 career record against the Stars.
Possible line combos:
McGinn – Duchene – Parenteau
Mitchell – Stastny – Hejduk
McLeod – Sgarbossa – Kobasew
Bordeleau – Van der Gulik – Olver
Johnson – Hejda
O'Brien – Barrie
O'Byrne – Hunwick
Goals – 29th, Goals Against – 13th, Power Play – 23rd, Penalty Kill – 9th
Things have been less than perfect for the Stars lately. Injuries have depleted the top-six for the past three games and the penalty situation on the team is somehow getting worse. The offense has struggled mightily to keep possession of the puck and score goals.
Dallas will come into this game with two days rest under their belt and Derek Roy back into the fold tonight. Roy has missed the last five games with a groin issue and it's had a massive effect on the Stars. His return will be big for Dallas.
To make room for Roy, the Stars sent Jordie Benn back to the minors. The move is possible because of Jamie Oleksiak, who has played well since being called up. Oleksiak should be in the starting line-up every game now.
Dallas has one big injury with Ray Whitney out for a month with a broken foot. His spot in the top-six could be taken by Reilly Smith, but who knows what Gulutzan will do. Smith is more of a right-winger and Whitney's spot was on the left wing. Brenden Morrow could be in the top-six again tonight.
Dallas needs to show tonight that they have some control with their penalty issue. It may not hurt them too much tonight as the Avs have the worst PP in the league, but they have to be more disciplined.
Kari Lehtonen gets the start tonight. He's 6-2-1 against the Avs in his career.
Probable lines:
Eriksson – Benn– Jagr
Smith – Roy – Ryder
Morrow – Fiddler – Nystrom
Garbutt – Eakin – Roussel
Goligoski – Robidas
Larsen – Daley
Dillon – Oleksiak
