Atera SIGNO ASR carrier - 122cm AR2122 (includes locks)
Code: AR2122
In stock
Atera SIGNO cross bars are available, as a complete package, either in plastic coated galvanized steel or in aluminium.
These steel bars present a particularly low profile - only 40mm from the centre of the rail to the top of the roof bar - and are very easy to adjust and use.
Other features:
Most of Atera's roof bars and accessories business is with the Original Equipment market, i.e. direct to the car manufacturers, where major customers include Audi, BMW, Daewoo, Chrysler, Fiat, Honda, Mitsubishi, Mercedes, Opel, Subaru, Suzuki, Vauxhall and Volkswagen. Ateras reputation therefore speaks for itself and, (probably needless to say), all their products are TUV certified and quality approved to ISO 9001.
The aim of this note is to persuade you that kayaks should always be tied to the carrying vehicle at both bow and stern.
Untied kayaks have, in our experience, the greatest potential for a roof bar or kayak carrier failure. The massive forces that untied kayaks can generate have even been known to snap roof bar fixing bolts with the result that a complete assembly of roof bars and kayaks has ended up on the road. We know that this has happened with almost every brand of roof bar, and regardless of whether the kayaks are on a special carrier or just strapped to the bars.
You need to fix bow and stern lines, probably using the front and rear screw-in towing eyes to get strong and accessible fixing points on the vehicle. Kayak shops should be able to provide suitable 'paracord' for this purpose. Alternatively, we have sets of straps available that are perfect for the job and are really easy to use. Yakima make some excellent Bow/Stern tie down straps and Thule makes the QuickDraw 838 which we have listed together with every kayak carrier we sell.
Please note that kayaks should be strapped to the roof bars, or to kayak carriers, using straps that are suitable for the purpose, e.g. 25mm polypropylene straps with strong buckles. Bungee cords must never be used.
Please also note that all roof bar instructions point out the dangers of carrying unsecured long items, as of course do all kayak carrier instructions.
If you tie down your kayaks properly you almost certainly won't experience a product failure. If you don't you may or may not get away with it. If there is a disaster and the kayaks end up on the road, separated from the vehicle, then you were not using tie downs and you have subjected the roof bars to forces for which they were not designed. The costs of sorting this out are yours, not ours, and you may also have difficulties with your insurers.
We're sorry to be so firm about this, but "things coming off the tops of cars" is the stuff of nightmares, and we want to do all we can to prevent accidents of this sort from happening.
To find the spare parts you need, including spare keys, please click here or on the pdf symbol below, identify the product codes, then choose them from the list below. If you need more than 1 of any item, change the quantities in the Shopping Basket.
We try and keep spare parts in stock but if the part you order is not in stock we will get back to you ASAP to let you know how long it will take to order in.
Delivery charges and arrangements:
We charge a contribution towards delivery costs, depending on what you order, where you live, and how quickly you want the goods.
For most UK addresses, the charge for our two to three day service is £5.50 (£9.50 for orders including a roof box) and our charge for Next Working Day deliveries is £8.50 (£12.50 for orders involving a roof box). AutoSock, shoe chains, RUD i-Sock, and small spare parts, are charged £3.95 (Royal Mail Tracked), £4.95 (Royal Mail Express Tracked) or £5.95 (express courier, usually Next Working Day).
There are different charges for any delivery including a sea crossing, and deliveries to Skye - we will contact you with a quote on receipt of order.
Orders for Next Working Day delivery need to be received by 2.00pm.
There are no deliveries on Saturdays, Sundays or Bank Holidays, except for postable items where Royal Mail has a Saturday delivery. Next Working Day orders placed on a Friday will be delivered on the Monday, Next Working Day orders placed on a Saturday will be delivered on the Tuesday.
We are very flexible with our deliveries and will aim to deliver on a day and at an address which suits you. Goods can usually be left without signature - we prefer this with roof boxes. There's a "Special Delivery Instructions" box in the checkout area where we'll ask you to choose a typical instruction and then amend it to suit your particular requirements.
No retailer or courier company can ever "guarantee" a Next Working Day delivery. All courier companies occasionally have the same transport problems as can happen to everyone else, including snow blocked roads, closed roads, traffic jams, mechanical breakdown, an inability to find the delivery address, or to gain access to it if, for example, it's in a block of flats. We work with some of the best couriers in the business, and overall they provide an outstanding service.
Payment options:
We take the following cards, and also PayPal. Please note that the entry on your card statement will be from "The Roof Box Company".

The concept of integrating speakers into shelving units is nothing new, but this Soundshelf design is easily the most elegant application of the idea to date.
In fact, Soundshelf goes beyond bookshelves into other areas—like DVD storage towers. Again, it's still a concept, but there is no reason why it can't become a reality. In the meantime, we have ceiling fans with built-in speakers to look forward to. Maybe someday we could even achieve the holy grail of simple surround sound solutions—the speaker light bulb.

Facebook Threatens Greasemonkey Script Writer
from the but-it's-in-the-browser deptAnother day, another abusive bullying attempt. This time, it's Facebook, which is apparently trying to bully the maker of a Greasemonkey script that cleans up your Facebook live feed by removing annoying app notices (such as all the crap your friends are doing in Farmville and Mafia Wars). It sounds quite useful. Originally, the script was called Facebook Purity, and Facebook complained about the trademark issue (a stretch... but perhaps you could see the company's point). So the guy changed the name to Fluff Busting Purity. No trademark issue at all. But Facebook is still complaining. The thing is, this is a Greasemonkey user script -- meaning that everything happens in the user's browser -- which Facebook has no claim over. If you tell your browser to ignore certain things on a website, that should be your choice. This add-on is there to help people who want it, such that it makes Facebook more useful to them. It's too bad that as Facebook gets bigger, we're hearing more and more stories of this kind of bullying activity.

Ollech & Wajs M4 Automatic Divers Watch
New old stock, brand new and previously unsold Ollech & Wajs M4 automatic divers watch. Originally from 1996, no box or papers, but when sold in 1996, they never came with box or papers. Has steel case, steel bracelet with folding clasp, hardened mineral crystal, screw down crown, ratcheted rotating bezel, hardened mineral glass and ETA 2824-2 automatic movement, Ollech & Wajs started business in the 1950s when Albert Wajs began making and supplying stainless steel bracelets for wristwatches. In 1956, a partnership was formed with Joseph Ollech, and they soon began manufacturing wristwatches. Business was done from their retail premises in Zurich. They soon began to expand into world wide markets, more notably the US and UK markets by advertising in magazines that were popular with aviatos, soldiers, divers and sportsmen, selling direct to the end user by mail order from Switzerland. In the 1960s O&W sold a variety of professional automatic and manual-wind mechanical military and dive watches for an average of US . The Ollech & Wajs M 65 military watch was often sold at PX's on US military bases. These watches became very popular with US soldiers who bought them privately as a replacement for their government issued disposable watches. Sales reached an all time high during the Vietnam War era when they were selling thousands of watches via direct mail order. Dimensions are: width 42 mm excluding crown, 44 mm including crown, lug to lug 45 mm, thickness 13 mm

An interesting footnote to last week's post, revisiting our "5 Cases to Watch" for 2012.
Last week, I wrote that while talent manager Rick Siegel's legal war with his former client — which had since morphed into a crusade against California's Talent Agencies Act writ large — was over, the fight had been taken up by Siegel's colleagues at the National Conference of Personal Managers, which, in November 2012, brought a direct constitutional challenge against the Talent Agencies Act in federal court. As part of my preview of the case, I noted that the case "may still be a long shot — anytime someone tries to claim that a law violates the Thirteenth Amendment's prohibition on slavery, you have to raise your eyebrows a little." But this week, I received a reader correction from Mr. Siegel himself, who writes:
The 13th Amendment claim isn't about slavery.
The 13th Amendment of the United States Constitution states in part: "Neither slavery nor involuntary servitude, except as a punishment for crime whereof the party shall have been duly convicted, shall exist within the United States, or any place subject to their jurisdiction."
So to be constitutionally compliant, the benefit of one's labor can only be voided should there exist: (1) a statute stating that such labor was criminal; and (2) a finding been forfeited must have been found duly convicted of that crime. Every other California occupational licensing scheme where one loses the right to contract has statutory notice that the unlicensed engagement of activity is a criminal offense and makes that engagement either misdemeanor or felony, the TAA expressly states that per § 1700.44(b) that no TAA violation can be considered criminal. As the action can't be seen as criminal, the penalty violates the 13th Amendment.
The original post has been revised to refer to "involuntary servitude" instead of slavery. Lawyers for the State of California, the Association of Talent Agencies, and celebrities who just like being able to not pay their estranged personal managers may, of course, disagree with Mr. Siegel's interpretation of the Thirteenth Amendment, but let it never be said that Law Law Land doesn't strive to be fair and precise in its snark.
As for me, I'm just psyched to have gotten (politely) called out by a celebrity of recent history in California law. Can't wait for Kim Kardashian to email the blog next!

What is your favourite author criteria?
I've been thinking about this a lot recently; should it be because I love one of an author's books obsessively, but feel indifferent towards the others? Or should it be that I enjoy all their novels consistently?
And, perhaps most importantly, should this author be a women?
In regards to the first two questions, most of my favourite books are ones where I've not particularly enjoyed the rest of what the author has written. Kurt Vonnegut's Slaughterhouse-Five, or Toni Morrison's Beloved for example.
"It is just an illusion here on Earth that one moment follows another one, like beads on a string, and that once a moment is gone, it is gone forever."
– Slaughterhouse-Five
"In this here place, we flesh; flesh that weeps, laughs; flesh that dances on bare feet in grass. Love it. Love it hard. Yonder they do not love your flesh. They despise it. They don't love your eyes; they'd just as soon pick em out. No more do they love the skin on your back. Yonder they flay it. And O my people they do not love your hands. Those they only use, tie, bind, chop off and leave empty. Love your hands! Love them. Raise them up and kiss them. Touch others with them, pat them together, stroke them on your face 'cause they don't love that either. You got to love it, you! And no, they ain't in love with your mouth. Yonder, out there, they will see it broken and break it again. What you say out of it they will not heed. What you scream from it they do not hear. What you put into it to nourish your body they will snatch away and give you leavins instead. No, they don't love your mouth. You got to love it. This is flesh I'm talking about here. Flesh that needs to be loved. Feet that need to rest and to dance; backs that need support; shoulders that need arms, strong arms I'm telling you. And O my people, out yonder, hear me, they do not love your neck unnoosed and straight. So love your neck; put a hand on it, grace it, stroke it and hold it up. and all your inside parts that they'd just as soon slop for hogs, you got to love them. The dark, dark liver–love it, love it and the beat and beating heart, love that too. More than eyes or feet. More than lungs that have yet to draw free air. More than your life-holding womb and your life-giving private parts, hear me now, love your heart. For this is the prize."
– Beloved
They may even spread over to two books, in the case of Ford Madox Ford – Parade's End and The Good Soldier. Ford has written other books, but none as famous as these two, and I have no desire to read further. If I crown him favourite author, shouldn't I have read everything he has written, or does that have to matter.
"The beastliness of human nature is always pretty normal. We lie and betray and are wanting in imagination and deceive ourselves, always, at about the same rate. In peace and war! But, somewhere in that view there are enormous bodies of men….. If you got a still more extended range of view over this whole front you'd have still more enormous bodies of men. Seven to ten million… All moving towards places towards which they desperately don't want to go. Desperately! Everyone of them is desperately afraid. But they go on. An immense blind will forces them in the effort to consummate the one decent action that humanity has to its credit in the whole record of history; the one we are engaged in. The effort is the one certain creditable fact in all their lives…. But the other lives of all those men are dirty, potty and discreditable little affairs…. Like yours… Like mine…"
– Christopher Tietjens, Parade's End
Then there are the authors where you've read every book – and at some point been obsessed with their work – but now enjoy them with a dampened pleasure. Oh Harry Potter, how I used to obsess over you! I am both very glad I have read Harry Potter and glad I read it at the age I did, I think if I read it now it wouldn't have been nearly as poignant or meaningful. It came to me at a time of change and helped ease that difficult process, you can never fail to escape with a J.K. Rowling book. The Casual Vacancy was an okay reading experience and I enjoyed The Cuckoo's Calling – but I don't LOVE any of these books.
"Just because it's taken you three years to notice, Ron, doesn't mean no one else has spotted I'm a girl!"
– Hermione, Harry Potter
Finally, should my favourite author be female. I can hear your eyes rolling at this, but in all seriousness women tend to be typecast to romance novels or are merely underrepresented at best. Even down to cover design female authors are treated differently, there is a reason J.K. Rowling goes by her initials rather than her first name. Constant improvements are occurring in the industry and in the wider cultural and social sense, but I want to ensure I'm not falling into Patriarchal lines and turning against female authors unthinkingly . That saying, I don't want to pick a favourite author on the basis of gender, I want to love their writing too.
With these 'rules' I really am limiting myself to Harper Lee as a favourite author, and as much as I adore To Kill a Mockingbird, I wouldn't say it was my favourite book.
This is as much a discussion on the diversity of what I read as it is a discussion on who can claim my favour. I need to read outside the box, figuratively speaking, by reading books I may otherwise avoid or be unaware of. (I'd especially like to read more books by women of colour, so if you have any good recommendations please let me know on the Books Before 30 page!)
To conclude, I have decide that the position of favourite author should be a fluid one, where change can happen on a whim. I don't have a single favourite book, I have a list of over twenty-five and why shouldn't my favourite author be the same. Then I won't feel I lack diversity or feel as if I am being snobby or crass – I'll live contentedly knowing I can have whatever favourite author I like, whenever I like.

Now that Google is in tablets, it's clearly hoping to make its mark quickly, lining its Nexus 7 tablet up for shipping in the UK in two to three weeks.
The Nexus fondleslab was spotted lurking in pre-order form on the Play store at £159 for its 8GB version, but no sign of the 16GB one yet.
According to the site, the gear is expected to start shipping in two to three weeks, with a sweetener of £15 credit to spend in the Play store and some free content, like a copy of Transformers: Dark of the Moon.
The long-rumoured Chocolate Factory fondleslab was unveiled just last night at the I/O conference in San Francisco, going for $199 for 8GB and $249 for 16GB in the US.
The tablet is more a competitor to the Kindle Fire than it is to the iPad, given that the tech has been somewhat pared away to ensure a lower price. The tablet has a quad-core Tegra 3 processor and a 12-core graphics processor but just a 1280 x 800 HD screen and no rear camera.
However, pushing the tab out hastily in the UK, even just in its 8GB form, will give Google the jump on Amazon, whose Kindle Fire has yet to cross the pond.
The addition of the free content in the form of magazines, books and films shows that the web giant is marketing this as an entertainment fondleslab that is also ties some more Google strings to people by syncing up with its gear elsewhere like Chrome, Gmail, Drive, etc.
The fondleslab will also have the next version of the Android operating system, Jelly Bean, onboard, which features a few tweaks to the Ice Cream Sandwich upgrade, such as offline voice recognition and some changes to the UI. A predictive search capability called Google Now, which learns the user's interest from their searches and location, is also packed into Jelly Bean. ®

Thinking about cancer or dealing with cancer risk can be scary or overwhelming, but we believe that receiving information and resources is comforting, empowering, and lifesaving.
Research studies that have looked at the impact of a BRCA mutation on fertility have yielded mixed results. A study done by Steven Narod and colleagues showed no association between BRCA mutations and infertility. A separate study showed that women with BRCA1 mutations had fewer eggs retrieved when undergoing in vitro fertilization (IVF) compared to women without BRCA mutations. Researchers at the University of California at San Francisco studied women with BRCA1/2 mutations who had not had prophylactic surgery, chemotherapy, or radiation, to determine when they went through natural menopause. Compared to women without known mutations, mutation carriers experienced menopause sooner than women who had not been tested for the mutation.
In addition to reproductive issues caused by BRCA mutations, chemotherapy used to treat breast cancer can also lead to early menopause.

Addictions can make you behave in a way that is unlike your normal nature and cause multiple problems with family, school, work, social and spiritual aspects of life. When you are stuck in addictive thoughts and behaviors recovery can seem impossible. I have extensive training and experience in substance addictions, including opiate addictions. Therapy is often needed to learn coping skills to maintain long term recovery of addictions. My approach is warm, compassionate, non-judgmental, and will compel you to desire lasting change in your life.
Addiction Counselor

Sexual addiction is our top specialty. Those with out of control sexual behaviors find themselves missing work, staying up all night, going against their own values and putting themselves at risk for legal, marital and health consequences. We don't pathologize the sexual behaviors, we explore the unhealthy relationship the client has with the sexual behaviors. There isn't any certain sexual act that is problematic as much as it is the compulsivity around it. Worse is the effects on a someone who discovers their partner is sexual acting out with other people, pornography or any other sexual betrayal. The betrayal is profound and recovering from this demands the right set of therapeutic tools.

You know well that anxiety and denial are common in the early phases of addiction therapy and recovery. Doubts about the future and emotional instability are a normal reaction during the early months... and you probably can attest that sadness, disappointment, anger, and regret are common feelings following treatment. Throughout the time of recovery from an addition one can exhibit psychosocial distress, including anxiety and depression. Attendance to spiritual care has salutary effects. Spiritual well-being and meaning serve as a buffer zone against depression, hopelessness and desire for relapse. It is can be extremely difficult to cope and deal with the trials and obstacles in addiction ....
Addiction Counselor
Chandler Fleming, L.M.S.W.
Clinical Therapist
In 48346 - Nearby to Novi.
I approach addiction in an open and direct fashion. I am able to integrate many recovery models including AA/NA and Celebrate Recovery into therapy. I work with addiction with a simple approach of "If it is a problem or has a good chance of being a problem, then it is a problem." I help clients recognize that they use for a variety of reasons and that their reasons may be different than most others.
Addiction Counselor
Marshall Maldaver, Ph.D, LP
Licensed Psychologist

People can become addicted to just about anything. Some of the more common addictions are smoking, drugs, alcohol, gambling, sex, and shopping among countless others. An addiction is when you feel a compulsive need to do something and you have no ability to control that desire. Addictions can interfere with your way of life, be detrimental to your health, cause financial problems, damage your family or social relationships, and completely overtake your life. Addictions can also cause you to hurt yourself or someone you love. I can help you manage your addictions through behavioral and cognitive counseling.
Addiction Counselor
Stephanie Sachs, LPC
Licensened Psychotherapist
In 48009 - Nearby to Novi.
If you are struggling with addiction and reading this, you have probably begun to see the kind of harm continued use is causing you and perhaps loved ones. You may also be struggling with problems at work, in your relationships, with your self-care; your health may be suffering; your wallet may be suffering - addictions are often expensive! You will want to seek help in all of these domains of your life at the same time, which informs the kind of therapy you are looking for. You may find anxiety to be a struggle in early sobriety, and you will need coping skills to navigate that. Compulsions / Process Addictions: gaming, gambling, shopping, over-eating, over-exercise...Find real control.
Addiction Counselor
Sally Palaian, Ph.D
Licensed Psychologist
In 48025 - Nearby to Novi.
Addictions are rampant in our culture - alcohol, food, sex, shopping & money, gambling, work, relationship, internet… You name it. Lots of us are numbing out our lives, choosing compulsive, trancelike activities rather than dealing effectively with our feelings and life circumstances. When you are in an active addiction, you don't realize that the addiction actually complicates your life more. People think that turning to these activities give them relief, when really addictions bring on more complications. I have training and experience with all types of addiction, and can help you to get free from this cycle of self-destructive behavior and be present in your life.

Clients who have partners addicted to alcohol or drugs need support in finding out how and if the relationship can be salvaged, so that a loving relationship can be possible. I can guide you to the communication skills you can learn to promote a healthy, loving relationship with your significant other. So much is written on the addicted person in the relationship and we tend to forget about the anxiety the spouse is experiencing through their loved one's recovery process.

Strange and beautiful: Visiting bands leave mark
El Guapo, The Unicorns
at UVA's Fest Full of Rock
January 31
Through my countless hours of reviewing bands, the late nights, the bored smoking, the constant skating on the edge of the sober/drunk divide, I've come to realize one equation holds true when the weekly deadline looms like the Flying Dutchman out of the mist: Number of Bands Reviewed Must Be < 3.
In that spirit, I'm going to review merely two of the 10 acts that appeared at UVA's Fest Full of Rock concert on Saturday, January 31, to flesh out the anorexic nature of some of my previous fest work.
El Guapo, one of DC's Dischord Records' shining stars, appeared on-stage at around 2pm, an hour when a young man often first sees the light of day. Beginning with a stage setup that worshipped symmetry (left: keyboardist, middle: drummer, right: keyboardist), the group had an amazing ability to use all three band members' voices in a sort of screamo call-answer fashion.
At least one of the group's tunes featured a drum loop as opposed to its organic cousin, and the drummer, freed of his cylindrical shackles, was free to become the group's lead singer, convulsing himself around the stage like a victim of end-stage St. Vitus Dance.
Relying on four-on-the-floor beats more than most other acts I've heard since the dying days of disco, the inclusion of guitar and bass– both bandied around by the left keyboardist and the drummer– and a reliance on melodies that would generically be called Egyptian, left me with a feeling of wild glee at seeing something so strange and beautiful.
The Unicorns, the band I had basically paid $12 to see, came on a little after 6pm and quickly launched into their first tune, before an abrupt stop. Explaining that a keyboard cable was unhooked and witting, "It's a beautiful thing, the start-stop" the group launched into "Tuff Ghost," the second track on their new record.
The group's primary setup was a bassist, a keyboardist, and a drummer, dressed in pink tuxedos and seeming like they had just enough (which in rock's case means far too much) coffee that morning. As the song's first chorus took over with its disco beat and staccato organ, the crowd began to get excited– a little. I thought the group was the best national act I've seen in this town for a while, leaving me quite impressed with their clever pop, convoluted lyrics, and amazing ability to seamlessly switch instruments (a guitar was added to the group's on-stage antics after a few songs).
Though they had played at the festival earlier in the day, I was forced to miss Ted Stryker's Drinking Problem's penultimate performance, but was able to catch the group's last-ever Charlottesville show at Tokyo Rose– anyone present that night would say, without a trace of irony, that a bright light has gone out in our town. To a crowd of at least one hundred convulsing kids crowded into the Rose's basement, the band led the masses in a group sing-along to the noise their instruments threw out, and neo-new wave whiplash was the injury of the night.

Texas A&M freshman quarterback Johnny Manziel brought home the bacon early in the Home Depot college football awards show in Orlando, in the form of the Davey O'Brien Award.
The SEC's single-season total yards record holder became the first freshman to earn the honor, awarded to the nation's top quarterback, and the first Aggie as well. He beat out Kansas State's Collin Klein and Ohio State's Braxton Miller for the honor.
Klein and Notre Dame senior linebacker Manti Te'o join Manziel, a former Kerrville Tivy standout, as Heisman Trophy finalists. College football's most prestigious individual award will be announced Saturday night in New York.
Also in Orlando, A&M offensive tackle Luke Joeckel won the Outland Award, given to the nation's top interior offensive lineman. Joeckel is the first Aggie to win the Outland. The show is live on ESPN. Staff writer Tim Griffin is in Orlando for the Home Depot awards show, while I'm in New York to advance the Heisman coverage.

The Fuji X100's old-school, Leica-aping aesthetic drives people bonkers with envy. It shouldn't be possible to make people drool over the camera more than they already do. Then Fuji dressed the X100 with a special edition look.
Fuji is treating its 12.3 megapixel wonder to a leather-covered special edition that's going to make the retro-camera nerds freakout. It's no surprise that the X100 SE bears a striking resemblance to the obscenely expensive Leica Hermes Edition M7 released a few years ago. Resist the immediate impulse to sell your grandmother's jewelry. While it's almost certain the X100 SE won't cost £9,400 like its doppelganger, we probably won't ever see it stateside. Looks like it'll only be available in Asia. Too bad. [Facebook via Wired]

An enjoyable pop projection of post-9/11 anxiety.
Early in LFODH, a villain taunts our hero, calling him "a Timex in a digital world"; McClane, characteristically, takes the dig as a compliment. Two hours, countless butt-kickings and hairbreadth escapes later, we know why.
This fourth iteration of a series that first burst upon the world in 1988 turns out to be terrific entertainment, and startlingly shrewd in the bargain, a combination of minimalist performances -- interestingly minimalist -- and maximalist stunts that make you laugh, as you gape, at their thunderous extravagance.
It's simply old-school stunts and movie magic.
See all Live Free or Die Hard reviews at Metacritic.com
Pause for kids 13 & under
First non-R Die Hard still a big blowout.
What Parents Need to Know
Parents need to know that although this fourth Die Hard movie is the first in the franchise not to get an R rating (which may be more about the culture than the movie itself), it's still full of frequent, noisy, painful-looking violence that yields plenty of injuries and dead bodies. Expect bloody shootings, falls, body smashes, strangulations, punches, slaps, kicks, spectacular car crashes and flips, huge explosions, and ferocious hand-to-hand fights. A boy puts his hand on Lucy's bra during a make-out session; there are also brief cleavage shots and an extended kiss. Language includes an unfinished exclamation of "Yippee-ki-yay, motherf---er," as well as multiple uses of "s--t," "hell," and "ass."
Messages: Messages about patriotic duty and helping the vulnerable run throughout, along with the idea that government (and police) and inept and slow moving and that vigilantism is the most effective way to solve major problems.
Role models: NYC detective John McClane operates outside the law to get his job done: He blows things up, breaks into buildings, steals cars, and doesn't read villains their rights -- but theoretically it's all for a good cause, to save the world from "virtual terrorism."
Violence: Lots: Explosions, falls out windows, fireballs, car crashes and flips, shoot-outs, throttling, kicks, punches, slaps, helicopter door-gunning, Harrier jet missile-firing, non-lethal shots into legs and feet, twisting of gun into a wound. Fights include a thug grabbing John through his car window, then being dragged along and smashed into a dumpster. There's a video image of the exploding U.S. capitol (revealed to be fake); a car flies through the air into a helicopter (big explosion, from which one thug escapes by falling hard to the ground); slamming fight between John and Mai (includes tosses into walls, a car crashing down an elevator shaft, a body falling down the shaft, the car exploding in the shaft); villain shoots his own hackers; battle between John in semi and Harrier jet leaves tuck demolished and elevated highway collapsing -- repeatedly; bloody bodies in close-ups.
Sex: Reference to Mai's "sexy voice" Lucy makes out with boy (she pushes away his hand on her bra); Mai shows cleavage a couple of times; Mai and Gabriel kiss deeply; Matt slows Gabriel's computer downloads by setting loose a pop-up attack ("Sexy Singles," "Cheap Viagra," etc.).
Language: Plenty of colorful "action" language, including one almost-use of John McClane's signature phrase ("Yippee-ki-yay, motherf...," covered over by a sound effect); repeated uses of "jerk-off," "dick," "screw up," "damn," "s--t," "ass," "a--hole," "bitch," "hell," and "son of a bitch."
Consumerism: Mention of Arby's.
Drinking, drugs and smoking: Injured Matt says he's been dosed with morphine, so his pain has subsided.

RALEIGH — The governors of North Carolina's public university system learned today that a possible 15 percent cut in state funding would eliminate thousands of classes across the 16 college campuses and mean job losses for more than a thousand faculty members.
Although state lawmakers have yet to release their budget proposals for the next fiscal year, the body that oversees the university system was briefed on some of the impacts of severe budget cuts.
The governors were told that a 15 percent cut in state funding would result in about 9,000 fewer course offerings, with North Carolina State University and Appalachian State University each losing about a thousand course sections. About 3,200 positions would have to be eliminated, including 1,500 faculty jobs.
University of North Carolina at Charlotte leaders estimated such a cut would increase the average time for a student to earn an undergraduate degree by a full semester. The UNC School of the Arts reported it might have to close its filmmaking school. Appalachian State University said it would have to eliminate financial aid and loan staff at the same time that the number of students with financial need is increasing. East Carolina University's library would cancel subscriptions to key academic journals and databases.
Even though the average tuition for in-state undergraduate students has more than doubled in the past decade, students next year might not get the courses they need in the right sequence to graduate on time, UNC System President Tom Ross said.
"I think the message is that we are doing our best to protect the quality of education that we deliver to our students," Ross said. "I can't tell you that we'll be able to do the same level of service."
The university system gets about $2.7 billion a year from the state, about 31 percent of its $8.3 billion overall budget. About 13 percent comes from tuition and fees.
House Republican leaders plan to begin unveiling their proposals for closing a budget gap they estimate at $2.4 billion for the year starting in July.
"These numbers that we presented are theoretical at this point," Ross said. "We don't know what to expect."
As Gov. Beverly Perdue's budget officer, Charles Perusse, last year asked university campus leaders to estimate the effect of budget cuts of 5 percent and 10 percent. In the past month, now as UNC's new chief finance officer, Perusse asked campuses to go back and gauge the effect of deeper cuts.
"Quietly, we've heard (proposed university cuts ranging) from 12 to 20 percent being discussed at the General Assembly," Perusse said.

Pastor: Church Leaders Should Be 'Fearful of Our Own Depravity'
An Ohio pastor involved in spreading awareness about child abuse in the U.S. said that the church should be "fearful of our own depravity."
Don Solin, youth pastor for the Next Generation ministry at Fairhaven Church in Dayton, told The Christian Post after a conference call on Tuesday that part of Christianity's response to the problem of child abuse needs to be pastors and clergy recognizing their own potential for depravity.
"All of us who do ministry ought to be fearful of our own depravity," said Solin, who felt that church leaders often run the risk of "[looking] down at other people that are struggling with sin."
"And so if a person in ministry, if a person leading in church thinks they have it all together they better look out…I think as leaders we have to say, 'okay, first of all I am willing to be honest about my own depravity. Outside of Jesus Christ, where would I be?'"
Solin believes another crucial thing churches should do is be welcoming of people regardless of where they are coming from.
"We ought to be thankful that there's a place called the church that says you are welcomed here no matter who you are, no matter where you've been," said Solin.
"We're going to help you deal with the real issues. That is the value of the church."
Solin was one of four members of a panel that spoke and answered questions during a conference call held by Moody Radio meant to focus on the upcoming child abuse prayer and awareness day called Blue Sunday, to take place April 29.
In addition to Solin, other speakers included Janet Magee, founder of the Blue Sunday organization; Renee Pettinger, senior associate at Shepherding the Next Generation; and Romanita Hairston, World Vision's vice president of U.S. Programs. The panel was moderated by Greg Wheatley of Moody Radio.
In her presentation, Hairston talked about the growing problem of poverty and child neglect in the United States. In an interview with CP, Hairston explained that she felt most Americans do not truly grasp the economic situation in America.
"People are surprised; they don't realize that we have the highest poverty rate since the 1950s. Fifty million people living at the poverty level," said Hairston.
"We have got to make people aware but then we also got to remind ourselves, especially the church, of our common humanity and our commitment to one another."
Solin focused on what the church should do to combat child abuse, emphasizing the need to help parents to communicate with their family, as well as being good role models.
"I hope [churches] become honest and say this is a problem, and we can do something about it. Not just say, here's a band aid and somebody else can fix this. I mean, I hope the church says, 'hey we can do something about this,'" said Solin to CP.
"The reality is that the church has to stand out. The church, the universal church, followers of Christ together has to stand out…It also must speak honestly about it and not skirt it. Not pretend it's not there, but really speak and do something honestly about it."

A.Z. v. Doe, 2010 WL 816647 (N.J. Super. App. Div. March 8, 2010)
Even if you do just a cursory review of cases that deal with online anonymity, you are bound to come across a 2001 New Jersey case called Dendrite v. Doe. That case sets out a four part analysis a court should undertake when a defamation plaintiff seeks an order to unmask an Internet user who posted the offending content anonymously.
Under Dendrite, a court that is asked by a defamation plaintiff to unmask an anonymous speaker must:
- require the plaintiff to try to notify the unknown Doe speaker that he or she is the subject the unmasking efforts, and give him or her a reasonable opportunity to oppose the application;
- require the plaintiff to identify and set forth the exact statements purportedly made by each anonymous poster that plaintiff alleges constitutes actionable speech;
- require the plaintiff to produce sufficient evidence supporting each element of its cause of action, on a prima facie basis; and
- balance the defendant's First Amendment right of anonymous free speech against the strength of the prima facie case presented and the necessity for the disclosure.
The state appellate court in New Jersey recently had occasion to revisit the Dendrite analysis in a case called A.Z. v. Doe. It found that a defamation plaintiff was not entitled to learn the identity of a person who anonymously sent an email that had content and attached photos that allegedly defamed plaintiff. The court found that plaintiff failed to meet the third factor in the Dendrite analysis, i.e., failed to present a prima facie case of defamation.
Beer pong is not for honor students
Someone took pictures of plaintiff playing beer pong at a party and posted them on Facebook. That's all in good fun, except that plaintiff was a minor and belonged to her high school's "Cool Kids & Heroes" program. Kids get into that program by making good grades and promising to refrain from bad behavior.
A purported "concerned parent" set up a Gmail account (anonymously) and sent an email to the faculty advisor for the Cool Kids & Heroes program. The email had photos attached showing several of the program's kids doing things they shouldn't be doing like drinking and smoking pot. In all fairness it should be noted that the picture of plaintiff only showed her playing beer pong — it didn't actually show her drinking or smoking, though there were cups and beer cans on the table in front of her.
The faculty advisor forwarded the email and images on to school administrators, and the school also notified the police. But law enforcement apparently took no further action.
Plaintiff filed a defamation lawsuit against the anonymous sender of the email and sent a subpoena to Google to find out the IP address from which the message was sent. Google notified plaintiff that it came from an Optimum Online IP address. So plaintiff sent a subpoena to Optimum Online for the identifying information. The ISP notified its customer Doe, and Doe moved to quash the subpoena.
The trial court granted the motion to quash, concluding that plaintiff failed to meet the fourth Dendrite factor (dealing with the First Amendment). Plaintiff sought review with the appellate court, which affirmed but on different grounds.
Why the defamation claim failed
The appellate court agreed that the motion to quash should be granted (that is, that the anonymous sender of the email message should not be identified). But the appellate court's reasoning differed. It didn't even need to get to the fourth Dendrite factor, because it held that plaintiff didn't meet the third factor (didn't present a prima facie defamation case).
The big problem with plaintiff's defamation claim came from the requirement that the statement alleged to be defamatory (in this case, that plaintiff had broken the law) needed to be "false." The court found five reasons why this element had not been met:
- Plaintiff submitted no evidence (like an affidavit) that she wasn't drinking the night the photo was taken.
- Plaintiff submitted no evidence that law enforcement actually concluded to take no further action. Plaintiff argued their lack of action showed she didn't break the law.
- Even if there was evidence that law enforcement decided to take no action, that would not have been relevant to the truth of the question of whether plaintiff was drinking. That would only go to show that law enforcement decided not to do anything.
- The photograph attached to the email showing plaintiff playing beer pong would lead one to conclude that she was in "possession" of the alcohol on the table, and that was a violation of the law.
- Doe submitted other photos from Facebook in connection with the motion to quash which showed plaintiff actually holding a beer.
So the court never got to the question of the First Amendment and how it related to the anonymous email sender's right to speak. The court concluded that because plaintiff had not put forth a prima facie case of defamation, the anonymous speaker should stay unknown.

The Liberal Democrats have called for a fundamental reform of the so-called "bedroom tax" in a dramatic withdrawal of support for one of the coalition's highest-profile welfare reforms.
Chief Secretary to the Treasury Danny Alexander told the party's Conservative coalition partners that it was "clearly time to take stock and change our approach" on the highly-criticised policy.
But the U-turn was given short shrift by a Tory source who insisted that the party remained "committed" to the change and said it was "imperative" the Government stuck to its push to slash the benefits bill.
Cameron pushes Juncker on EU reform
David Cameron will press the case for reform in Europe when he holds talks with Jean-Claude Juncker today.
After failing to block his appointment as European Commission president, the Prime Minister will meet Mr Juncker one-on-one for the first time and urge him to bring about real change and help return powers to nation states. He will also push for Lord Hill of Oareford, the nominee to represent Britain in Mr Juncker's team, to be handed a key economic portfolio.
The encounter comes after Mr Cameron's decision to put Lord Hill forward was branded a "shambles", with the peer having to sell shares in a lobbying firm to avoid criticism over conflicts of interest.
Pause in Gaza battle
Israel and Hamas have agreed to a five-hour United Nations-brokered "humanitarian" pause to their nine-day battle, offering the most encouraging sign yet that the fierce fighting could come to an end.
Israel's bombardment of Gaza has killed more than 200 Palestinians, including four boys struck on a beach by shells fired from a navy ship.
Israel said it would hold its fire today from 10am (8am BST) under a plan to allow Palestinians to restock food, water and other necessities. But it vowed to retaliate "firmly and decisively" if Hamas or other militant groups launched attacks during that time.
NHS finances stretched
NHS finances have been "stretched to the limit", an influential think-tank has warned.
The King's Fund said that there are "huge pressures" on the health service's purse strings after a quarter of finance directors at hospital trusts in England said that they expect to overspend their budgets this year.
Its latest report on NHS money woes found "a distinct lack of optimism about the general state of the finances" with 85% of the 73 finance directors polled saying they were fairly or very pessimistic about money for the next year.
OTR letter scheme published
A judge-led review of a controversial government scheme that saw around 200 Irish republicans receive assurances that they were not wanted by UK police will be published later.
Lady Justice Heather Hallett conducted the investigation into the so-called administrative process agreed between the last Labour government and Sinn Fein.
The probe, which will be outlined to parliament by Northern Ireland Secretary Theresa Villiers, was ordered by Prime Minister David Cameron in February in the wake of the high profile collapse of a case against a man accused of murdering four soldiers in the IRA's Hyde Park bombing in 1982.
Assisted suicide death squad docs
Changing the law on assisted dying could create "death squads" by putting the decision in the hands of doctors, a cancer specialist said.
Professor Karol Sikora told BBC's Newsnight that should the law come in, it would be at odds with providing good health care.
Peers will debate former Labour Lord Chancellor Lord Falconer's Bill on assisted dying in the House of Lords tomorrow when it comes before them for a second reading.
Decent homes for care leavers plea
Young care leavers should be offered a decent place to stay and not be put up in "unsuitable" accommodation like bed and breakfasts, a cross-party group of MPs has warned.
In a new report, the Commons education select committee said that youngsters who are becoming adults and leaving care should not be abruptly pushed out of the system.
It recommends that these young people should not be forced to leave care before they turn 21, and must be provided with regulated accommodation.
Rise in Britons being arrested for drug offences
The number of Britons arrested abroad for drug offences rose last year, according to Foreign and Commonwealth Office (FCO) figures.
There were 708 cases of Britons arrested for drug offences overseas in 2013/14 - an increase on the figure of 669 in 2012/13.
Of the cases, 173 were in Spain - a 68% rise on the 2012/13 figure, with the FCO saying this may have been due to an increase in local authority action.
Bank fines boost for projects
Specialist accommodation for military veterans who have lost their sight or their limbs is one of eight projects to be part-funded by fines on banks, David Cameron said.
The Prime Minister announced the beneficiaries of the latest £20 million tranche of punishments for manipulating the Libor rate to be diverted to good causes ahead of a reception at Downing Street for serving personnel, reservists, veterans, businesses and charities involved in the Military Covenant.
He will also formally open new permanent First World War galleries at the Imperial War Museum as part of the commemorations of the centenary of the conflict.
Cycling legend hurt in crash
Legendary cyclist Brian Robinson - the first Briton to finish the Tour de France - has been admitted to hospital after a collision with a car while on his bike.
The veteran road racer, 83, was cycling with friends when he was hit by a car just three miles from his home in West Yorkshire.
Emergency services were called to Lees Hall Road in Thornhill Lees at around 1.20pm and rushed Robinson to hospital where he is being treated for a suspected broken collar bone and cuts and bruises.
