NOFS Staffers Choose Top Films of 2013
Sunday 1/5/2014
New Orleans Film Society staff members chose their top ten films of 2013, listed below.
Jolene Pinder, Executive Director
Top ten films, in no particular order:
Inside Llewyn Davis
Stories We Tell
Let the Fire Burn
The Retrieval
Dans la maison (In the House)
12 Years a Slave
Cutie and the Boxer
Frances Ha
Upstream Color
Clint Bowie, Program Director
Laurence Anyways: Like Xavier Dolan's other films, this one has style to spare. But even without the music, colors, and exquisite costuming (those rayon shirts!), the heartbreaking story of two soul mates splitting up was one of the most powerful stories I experienced all year. I was lucky to see it on the big screen as closing night of this year's French Film Festival.
Upstream Color: Such an expertly crafted film, original and wholly engulfing from beginning to end. Saw this at a packed screening at Chalmette Movies.
Stories We Tell: The second Canadian director on my list, Sarah Polley is definitely one of the most exciting filmmakers working today. I saw this during the NOFS's limited run of the film at Chalmette Movies and talked about it with a carload of friends the entire drive home.
Paradise: Love (Paradies: Liebe): Austrian director Ulrich Seidl's seems to love making his viewer uncomfortable. His film Dog Days was something of a revelation for me, and this one (part of a three-part trilogy) didn't disappoint: beautiful, impeccably acted, and deeply, deeply disturbing.
In the House (Dans la mason): A favorite at this year's French film fest, this inventive film from Francois Ozon is like a mash-up of Pasolini's Salo and Kaufman's Synecdoche, New York—and it couldn't be more fun. The teen lead is one of the most compelling-to-watch on-screen presences I've seen this year.
12 O'Clock Boys: There were moments during this gritty, Baltimore-based doc that felt like pure operatic bliss. Pug is compelling enough to warrant his own TV show.
Beyond the Hills: This is confident filmmaking. I wish more filmmakers were as assured in their own storytelling style.
Fill the Void (Lemale et ha'halal): An incredibly intimate exploration of family life and tradition in what was, for me, an incredibly foreign setting. The camerawork in the opening grocery store sequence is a strikingly bold beginning for the 46-year-old, first-time director Rama Burshtein.
Frances Ha: Such a delight to watch, I could watch Frances run through New York streets all day.
Spring Breakers: I didn't expect to like this movie, but it won me over immediately. Loved the dreamy camera, the casting, the Britney covers—and, surprisingly, the story. There was no lack of depth in this film for me. (I'll confess that I passed on the one in the theaters and instead watched it online recently. That was a mistake.)
John Desplas, Artistic Director
A Dozen Favorites of 2013 (in not-quite-random order):
Inside Llewyn Davis
12 Years a Slave
In the Room (Dans la maison)
Stories We Tell
Spring Breakers
Blue Jasmine
American Hustle
Prince Avalanche (don't ask)
- *Yeah, I know, this was on every critic's list for 2012, but the film didn't release wide release outside New York and L.A. till early 2013.
- * * Mea culpa, mea culpa, mea maxima culpa, but somehow I didn't see the best reviewed film of 2013, the documentary The Act of Killing which is not-quite-yet available to download or stream at this writing.
Danielle Calle, Communications Manager & Programming Associate
While I missed out on too many of last year's 'big' films (Stories We Tell, Blue is the Warmest Color, Gravity, to name a few) below are a few of the films that stood out for me:
Cutie and the Boxer
Spring Breakers
Crystal Fairy and the Magical Cactus
Frances Ha
I'm So Excited!
American Hustle
Monika Baudoin, Membership Coordinator
Some movies that stood out to me this year:
Fill the Void (Lemale et ha'halal) (Israel)
Jiseul (South Korea)
Searching for Sugarman (Sweden / UK)
Stories We Tell (Canada)
Stoker (UK / USA)
Sergio Lobo-Navia, Technical Associate
Doing a top ten this year is borderline absurd. This has been the best year for movies since 2007. Notable omissions because I just haven't seen them are Her and The Act of Killing. Exclusive NOFS presentations were Leviathan, To the Wonder, Laurence Anyways, Like Someone in Love, Beyond the Hills, Water like Stone, Computer Chess, Upstream Color, and Northern Light.
1. Leviathan
2. To The Wonder
3. Fruitvale Station
4. Spring Breakers
5. Frances Ha
6. Gravity
7. Before Midnight
8. Laurence Anyways
9. Blue is the Warmest Color
10. The Wolf of Wall Street
11. Drug War
12. The Grandmaster
13. Like Someone in Love
14. Beyond the Hills
15. Side Effects
16. Water Like Stone
17. Stoker
18. Pacific Rim
19. Computer Chess
20. Mud
The Very Honorable Mentions: Upstream Color, Pain and Gain, The Lone Ranger, 12 Years A Slave, Blue Jasmine, The Counselor, Nebraska, Inside Llywen Davis, American Hustle, and Northern Light.
Skye Macdonald, Festival Coordinator
There were many films that I enjoyed this year for their visual appeal or storyline, but these five brought together the technical aspects and creative vision of film in the most complete way for me. Admittedly, I did not see all of this year's critically acclaimed features.
Stories We Tell
Sombras de Azul (Shades of Blue)
Blue Jasmine
Upstream Color
Dans la Maison (In the House)
Honorable mentions: Finding Neighbors, 12 Years a Slave


text: According to Billboard magazine the mighty Garth Brooks continues to be a hot seller. Just last week he sold 450,000 copies of Garth Double Live, which resulted in a 30,000 increase of units sold compared to the week before. The disc managed to stay No. 1 on Billboard's top 200 chart for a fourth consecutive week. Shania Twain's scorching Come On Over disc moved up two spots to No. 8. Brooks continues to get closer to reaching his goal of selling 100 million albums. Will he celebrate when he hears the news? "I wish I could enjoy it, but you know me, probably for about five minutes, we'll sit here and celebrate," he explained at a recent Music City press conference.

This time you can even get awards! As I release this there are 13 medals! edits will be marked like this (ex. **EDIT:) I can not add any more medals because I have run the limit of points! I used 500/500 points for medals! Sorry about the art, I am not the best artist I am more comfortable in the shadows of a programmer even though I am still learning!
If the Medals are not working it is your internet! I tried multiple internet access points and only one didn't work!
Rated 3.5 / 5 stars January 12, 2014
Finally... got that 0 point medal! :D Seems like other ones were all easier, well maybe not reaching the finish line, in which luck also factors in, but that's the only one that requires specific timing and fast reaction. I liked the game, but the re-playability value isn't that high, would be great with some more motivation, some more scenery (maybe scenery that changes depending on how far you get), a bit more random physics etc. Will there be a third? Keep it going!
Rated 2.5 / 5 stars December 7, 2012
I gave you a 2,5 rating because I appreciate the effort. This is better than the first (whom medal i wan't able to obtain). Anyway, the graphics are prettier and even though I don't really see the oint, ( I mean, I tried everything and I can't get to the end f the game) it can kill some time.
Keep up the good work.
Rated 5 / 5 stars December 1, 2012
i somehow Made it too the end on my first try! Wtf? i have extreme luck
Rated 1.5 / 5 stars November 29, 2012
A toss the turtle rip off but with no substance or style
Though I appreciate the easy medals points it's not worth it when you don't even have to try to get a distance in this game. I expected more quite honestly
Rated 4 / 5 stars November 25, 2012
Good game for medals and it's pretty good considering your age! (I'm 13.) I

Through the last few weeks we've been talking at length about the Edmonton Oilers and the trade deadline.
New GM Steve Tambellini successfully completed an 18-month audition recently and one hopes he is anxious to put his stamp on the team. Back in the old days you'd get an indication about the deadline from Jim Matheson in the EJ or maybe John Short would imply something and you kind of knew there might be a deal to come.
Modern times have given us new sources and reading the tea leaves in those areas tells us this trade deadline may be rather inactive. On Oilers Lunch Friday, Bob Stauffer suggested fans might be better off looking to summer when Tambellini can do business on a wider canvas. Oiler fans will remember Tambellini's inactivity last summer as he waited for Dany Heatley to say no another way, but one has to assume he has had plenty of time to evaluate the talents wearing the Oildrop.
I've mentioned Stauffer's comments here and grabbed a few items for this update and gave my own opinion here. Robin Brownlee has over the years made a ton of calls correctly on this sort of thing and his latest item is here. Jason Gregor had an interesting take here.
Reading all of those items, a reasonable man would conclude that:
- Ethan Moreau is gone
- GMs are calling
- but not about the players Edmonton wants to sell.
If ever there was a team that needed a collective roster haircut it is this one. However, when it comes to making trades in the modern NHL you need players of value and expiring contracts. Steve Tambellini is short on both at the deadline. I'm hoping he can make something happen but his track record suggests the man is long on try and shy on getting things done in a timely fashion.

Estimating the Effect of Mortgage Foreclosures on Nearby Property Values: A Critical Review of the Literature
W. Scott Frame
Economic Review, Vol. 95, No. 3, 2010
This article reviews the recently evolved economic literature seeking to estimate the negative effects of foreclosures. While the author finds overall evidence of such effects, he identifies various methodological issues, data limitations, and curious results.
Mortgage Foreclosure Prevention Efforts
Kristopher Gerardi and Wenli Li
Economic Review, Vol. 95, No. 2, 2010
The article describes the U.S. foreclosure prevention programs of the past few years and then examines both the theoretical academic literature of the 1990s and early 2000s and the more recent empirical literature generated by the recent foreclosure crisis. Finally, the authors outline characteristics that an effective loss mitigation strategy should contain.
Too Big to Fail after FDICIA
Larry D. Wall
Economic Review, Vol. 95, No. 1, 2010
This reprint of a 1993 article outlines what Congress intended the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement Act of 1991 to accomplish. A new preface discusses FDICIA's successes and failures as well as research calling for clearer policies to deal with the problem of "too big to fail" banks.

Does God Exist: The Craig-Flew Debate
by William Lane Craig (Editor), Stan W. Wallace (Editor), Antony Flew (Editor)Douglas Geivett (contributing author)
This title presents debates by leading contemporary philosophers of enduring themes and issues concerning the question of God's existence. William Craig and Antony Flew met in 1998 on the 50th anniversary of the famous Copleston/Russell debate to discuss the question of God's existence in a public debate. The core of this book contains the edited transcript of that debate. Also included are eight chapters in which other significant philosophers - Paul Draper, R. Douglas Geivett, Michael Martin, Keith Parsons, William Rowe, William Wainwright, Keith Yandell and David Yandell - critique the debate and address the issues raised. Their insights complement and further the debate, helping the reader delve more deeply into the issues that surfaced. In the two final chapters, Craig and Flew respond and clarify their positions, taking the debate yet one step further. The result of these many contributions is a book which provides the reader with a summary of the discussion and allows one to enter into the dialogue on this central question in the philosophy of religion.

Updated: Jan 9, 2013 12:01 PM
INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) — A bill introduced this session at the statehouse would allow students with permits to carry guns on state-supported college campuses.
The legislation was written after students approached lawmakers wanting to carry for their own protection.
Senate Bill 97 was introduced by Republican Sen. Jim Banks.
It prohibits a state agency, including a state-supported university, from regulating the possession of guns.
"It's not just a liberty, but it's for our safety, and it's personal for a lot of us," said IU sophomore Crayle Vanest. She's the president of IU's chapter of Students for Concealed Carry on Campus.
"We want to enjoy the same rights on campus, that we have anywhere else we go, at the grocery store, at the mall, on our commute, at night when we're walking to the bus stop," she said.
There are similar student groups at Purdue, IUPUI and Ball State, among others, all hoping someday students with permits will be allowed to carry. A national group on Facebook has thousands of members.
"It's not the university's place to say you can have the Bill of Rights or an education. And it's not a matter of saying, 'I'll go to a different school,' because almost all schools in the nation have policies like this," Vanest said.
Guns are prohibited on all Indiana University campuses, with the exception of law enforcement.
There are similar policies at Purdue, Ball State and other public universities across the state.
IU spokesperson Mark Land said the school is against the bill.
"All we know is that we're concerned with the overall safety of our students, employees and our guests on campus," he said. "Introducing additional element of firearms on campus just isn't something that is conducive to a safe learning environment."
Purdue University Police Department Chief John Cox said it would add further danger into the volatile college atmosphere.
"I think introducing firearms into a situation where you have young people, where there's alcohol or other substance abuse going on, and who may make poor choices due to being under the influence, I think you're going to make the situation worse," he said.
Vanest disputed that, saying: "We're responsible, we encourage responsibility … . If somebody's going to meet you with deadly force, some people want to be prepared for that. I want to be prepared for that."
The bill was sent to the rules committee.
There are only a few states that allow concealed carry on public college campuses. More than 20 states have banned concealed carry on campuses.
In Indiana, the decision to ban firearms is made by each college.

Mine-Scarred Lands Initiative Tool Kit: Federal and State Programs
Tool Kit Links
Federal Programs
Federal funding sources cover a broad scope of activities associated with mine revitalization. Some provide planning support, while others can be used for assessment, cleanup, infrastructure development or recreational development.
The Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance provides access to a database of all federal assistance programs available. It includes grants, loans and technical assistance such as training. You cannot apply for an assistance program through this Web site, but instead must contact the office that administers the program and find out how to apply.
The six demonstration projects highlight a range of resources that are described in the following tables.
- Planning
- Assessment
- Reclamation
- Remediation
- Building Construction
- Infrastructure
- Recreation and Greenspace
State Programs
States have a range of resources that can be used for mine-scarred lands revitalization. Although state programs vary, almost every state has a Brownfields program and infrastructure programs. Information about programs is generally available on state Web sites. Another helpful resource is EPAs State of the State Report.

Effective Java: Programming Language Guide
Addison-Wesley, 2001 - Computers - 252 pages
Designed to help Java programmers make the most effective use of the Java programming language and its fundamental libraries, this updated edition includes more than 50 essays, each of which conveys one rule. Helping programmers sidestep common misconceptions and errors, each rule captures best practices that have been tested in the real world. Just one of the key features in this book are the code examples that illustrate many useful design patterns and idoms. Another key feature is the advice on what not to do. Providing examples of what practices to avoid helps programmers side step common misconceptions and errors. While the second edition will cover all of the classic topics developers have come to rely on- objects, classes, libraries, methods, and serialization; new to this edition will be the coverage on generics, metadata, autoboxing, concurrency utilities, memory model, enumerations, and more. The book is based on the philosophy that clarity and simplicity are of paramount importance. The concise essays teach Java programmers of all levels how to write correct, clear, reusable, and effective code. Learning the art of Java programming, like most other disciples, consists of learning the rules and then learning when to violate them. With this book in hand, Java programmers will truly learn the rules and then learn when to violate them.

NEW YORK — The owner of Olive Garden and Red Lobster won't bump any full-time workers down to part-time status, after its tests of way to limit health care costs caused a backlash that took a bite out of sales. Yet Darden Restaurants Inc. isn't ruling out relying more heavily on part-timers.
The Orlando company was set to announce on Thursday that none of its current full-time employees will have their status changed. Darden this week lowered its profit outlook for the year, citing failed promotions and negative publicity from its tests of using more part-time employees. The tests were aimed at keeping down costs tied to new rules that will require large companies to provide health insurance to full-time workers starting in 2014.

Chapter one
The weather's a funny thing. Scorching hot sun one minute and pouring rain the next. Gale-force howling winds one minute, calm and peaceful the next.
Luke and I make a game out of it-the weather, that is. Whoever guesses the correct weather of the day gets a piece of candy from the bag I bought, with the money I earned from my last job. Though Luke may not think it, he needs it more than I do, so I try and let him win.
You could describe Karen as the weather: unpredictable. Ignoring us as though we're not here one minute; cold, angry and abusive the next. The violence she feels is only acted upon towards me though-never has she harmed Luke in any physical way.
The mental part, however, is one I have no power over.
"Are you okay?" Luke, my seven-year old brother, asks me, breaking my train of thoughts as I stare blankly at the wall.
I smile reassuringly at him, trying not to wince as I nod my head. It hurts to move, but Luke needs the reassurance and I'll be damned if I don't give it to him. He deserves that, at the very least.
"Do you want my blanket?" he asks, getting up from the, what was once, beige carpet, and kneeling before me.
I shake my head, glancing over at the sleeping Karen, who is on the couch, a cigarette hanging from her chapped lips as smoke billows around her. "You keep it," I tell him, ignoring the slight shiver that runs through my body.
I opened the window so Luke wouldn't have to inhale any more of the toxic fumes than he has to-there's no way I am going to close it just because I feel a little cold.
"Do you think we'll stay here?" he asks, wrapping the blanket tighter around him as I motion for him to climb up onto the worn armchair. He does so, slipping into the space beside me and lying against my arm.
"Maybe," I say, though he knows the drill just as much as I do-whenever Karen gets bored, she decides to move for a 'change of scenery', hoping it's the new 'right place'. There's no telling how long we'll stay. "This could be our one."
Luke snuggles up against me. "I hope so."
So do I Luke, so do I. I think this, but never say. Speaking your mind around Karen is dangerous, no matter what state of consciousness she's in.
With my brother safe and it being relatively quiet, the question of where we're going comes to mind. We've been traveling for five days now, from our latest home of four months with step-dad number seven, to wherever we're heading now, with number eight.
Even after six years' worth of moving, Karen's 'right place' has yet to be found.
With a sigh, I lie back against the armchair, wishing I could fall asleep, but I know that's not going to happen. When we're on the road, Karen and the step-dad are always around and we never get any peace. I never get much sleep when we're traveling, but when we get to the 'right place', we can be left alone for weeks at a time.
"You should get some sleep, Joey," Luke whispers into the silence, just as the caravan jolts to an abrupt stop. I hold him tightly, not wanting him to fall off the chair.
Loud curses and a dull thud echo around the small, sparsely decorated space, and the caravan starts again, loud squealing piercing the night.
At the sound of muttering and coughing, I tense, wishing she'd just go back to sleep, but Karen seems to be in a foul mood, if her curses say anything.
"Shut up!" she snaps, even though no one is speaking, but I've long since learnt that you only have to breathe to get on her bad side, though I've come across a solution-act hurt, but don't cry. She hates tears, say they're something for weak people-she hates weak people.
Karen hates a lot of things, and I suspect being a mother is one of them; not that she's had to do many motherly things.
"What are you looking at?" she sneers, her icy, blue eyes swivelling around and latching onto mine. "You should be making dinner."
It's two a.m., but I'm not stupid enough to point that out to her. She hates being wrong or, even worse, corrected, so I just go along with what she thinks. "You said you were going out with Tom."
I feel Luke trying to get up, but I keep him down with my arm around his shoulders and a slight shake of my head. The last thing I want is for him to get involved. Unless it's inevitable, I keep Luke out of his mother's way.
"I did, didn't I?" she muses, her lips twisting as a thoughtful expression overcomes her usual hard one. "Tom!"
I start at the sudden shriek, as does Luke, but don't answer her. You learn when and when not to answer when you live with Karen-now's not the time.
"What?" our latest step-dad bellows back.
"We're going out."
I look away, pretending to be interested in the pattern on the arm rest. I don't understand why she can't just go into him and tell him. It's sort of hard not to hear when they're bellowing at each other like banshees.
Thankfully, Karen has seemed to forgotten I am here for the moment as she gets up, muttering her opinion of Tom under her breath as she kicks a cushion out of her way. "Hell, it is cold in here," she mutters, tugging at the sleeve of her flimsy shirt. "Who the hell left the window open?"
It doesn't take long for her to remember my existence. Swivelling her gaze around, it lands on me, like always. "I pay the money I well earn for this heating for you little brats when I should be treating myself to nice things. But, no! Princess Josephine thinks she can waste the money by opening the window whenever she wants!"
I want to laugh at that-the money she well earns? It'd surprise me if she has ever worked a day in her life. "I'm sorry," I say, but it's getting harder to try and look hurt at every passing day. "I shouldn't have wasted your money like that. I was looking for a place for you to have dinner and must've forgotten to close it."
"Stupid idiot," she mutters, none too quietly. "Forgot to close the window…"
"Karen!" Tom bellows again, banging on the wall. "Come here!"
Muttering under her breath about how much is asked of her, Karen slams the door shut behind her, leaving Luke and me alone. My stomach rumbles, breaking the silence around us.
"You didn't eat," Luke mumbles from my side.
I didn't, but I'm not going to tell him that. "Of course, I did," I tell him, trying not to think of our low supply of food.
He shakes his head, like he doesn't believe me. "You should've eaten some of mine."
"Don't be silly," I say dismissively. "I'm fine." I don't even feel hungry, though my stomach begs to differ. My last decent meal was only five days ago and I've gone much longer than that before. I still feel full from the rich food that my stomach isn't used to.
Josh. I inwardly curse myself for thinking of that night. The last thing I want to think about is him. It's only been five days and I miss him already, and I know Luke feels the same.
He was my friend, despite everything he knew about me, and didn't judge me. He was a friend to Luke, too, and he was devastated when we had to leave.
The night before I left, we went down to the lake and out on the boat he owned. We used to go out on it a lot, because no one was ever down there. It was our place.
He asked me not to go, but I knew I had to. Luke needs me and I can't let him live with Karen on his own. Josh then did something that shocks me even now. He, my friend, kissed me.
It was a friendly kiss, but it was on my lips-and my first. I don't know how I feel about it, but we didn't have any time to talk before I left. We'll probably never see each other again.
"I miss Josh," Luke sighs sadly, as though he can somehow tell my thoughts turned to him, too. "Do you think he'll come to find us?"
I smile sadly. "Time for bed," I say, purposely not answering him. Even though Josh said he'll come to get us when I turn eighteen, I know that's not going to happen, and I will not give Luke false hope. I don't want him to be disappointed.
"Can't I stay here?" Luke sighs, snuggling up against my arm.
I brush his golden blond from his forehead, smiling down at him. "Don't you want the bed before Karen turns in for the night?"
"No," he mumbles, shaking his head. "I want to stay with you."
Since the caravan only has one bedroom, Karen and the step-dad usually get it, but when they go out, I usually sleep with Luke in the bed.
The door separating the driver from the rest of the small caravan flings open and Tom steps out. We haven't known Tom for long, but from what I can tell, he's alright. He doesn't bother Luke and me, unlike number three, who always seemed to be there when I was alone, and forced Luke to fetch his beer.
"We're here," he says without looking at us, ignoring us, as usual.
"Don't just sit there! Move your lazy asses now!" Karen snaps, following Tom out of the driver's room and glaring at us, as though we're the bane of her existence.
Feeling Luke stiffen, I rest my hand on his head, silently pleading with him to pretend he's asleep. As well as his hair colour, he seems to have inherited Karen's stubbornness, but that's where their similarities stop. Luke is nothing like his mother and never will be.
Seeing Luke nod once, my shoulders drop in relief. Karen has already left, so I follow her out the door and down the wobbly steps to see 'right place number thirteen'.

Tony Stewart snapped a 30-race winless streak by capturing the checkered flag at Sunday's FedEx 400 at Dover International Speedway. Stewart passed Juan Pablo Montoya for the lead with three laps to go at the "Monster Mile" to win his first race of the season and the 48th of his career. Montoya finished second followed by Jeff Gordon, Kyle Busch and Brad Keselowski. Now at the midway point of the 26-race regular season, Jimmie Johnson maintains a 30-point lead on Carl Edwards in the Sprint Cup Standings. Next on the schedule is Sunday's Pocono 400 and then in 2 weeks, NASCAR returns to Michigan International Speedway, highlighted by the June 16th Father's Day Quicken Loans 400.
On the Indy-Car circuit yesterday, in the second Detroit Grand Prix race of the weekend on Belle Isle, Simon Pagenaud of France took the checkered flag for his first IndyCar victory. The first race on Saturday was won by Englishman Mike Conway.

KENNEWICK, Wash.-- The Washington State Patrol needs lots of new recruits this year because hundreds of troopers are reaching retirement age.
WSP hired new recruiters and is having 19 testing events across the state as part of a major push to fill those openings.
Applicants raced across the finish line to beat the clock and pass the first part of their exam, which is fitness.
"They were outstanding. We had a lot of really good female and male applicants that did a great job," said Trooper Chris Thorson, Washington State Patrol.
Being physically fit is just one part of what it takes to join WSP. And even with some great applicants, only so many people make it through each round.
Seventy-six applicants, dropped to 52 after the physical testing. But, that shouldn't discourage any hopefuls. WSP is hoping to find candidates to fill 67 spots in this year's class, to begin replacing the 300 troopers leaving.
After physical testing comes the written exam that typically weeds out another 50% of the applicants.
But there's a growing issue State Patrol is running into and it's eliminating even more from the pool of hopefuls.
"Problems with people using prescription drugs and illegal drugs in the past. That's probably one of our biggest hang ups right now in phase three, our background investigation," Thorson said.
The increased use of prescription pills concerns WSP, but it isn't stopping them from finding good people eager to serve.
"I've always strived to be a good person, do the right thing and this is leading up to it, to the next level," said Marriah Paxton, applicant.
The troopers give applicants a chance to come up before the written exam and ask if any of their past behavior disqualifies them.
Some people asked troopers about drug use and mention how long ago they had used.
Six were told they couldn't continue, but could apply again within a certain number of years from using, depending on the situation.
WSP is encouraging more people to apply.

Limestone County Sheriff Mike Blakely confirmed early Wednesday morning that a mother and daughter died in a house fire overnight.
The fire started around 12:30 a.m. in the 4100 block of Snake Road. When volunteer firefighters arrived, the house was fully engulfed in flames.

The man made it out, but the two women didn't. Authorities have not release the names of the victims.
There's no word yet on the cause of the fire. According to the coroner, the two bodies have been sent

LOUISVILLE, KY (WAVE) - The University of Louisville Cardinals beat the University of Kentucky Wildcats 80-77 on Saturday.
Until the basketball Cards won this year's annual rivalry game, they had lost four in a row to the Cats, including last spring's national semifinal in New Orleans. Kentucky won that game 69-61 and went on to beat Kansas two days later for its eighth national championship.
That Final Four loss still bothers Cardinals coach Rick Pitino who entered Saturday's showdown in Louisville with an experienced team that was 11-1 and favored to reclaim Bluegrass State supremacy.

Your smile is one of the first things someone notices about you. And some Michiana kids had a big reason to smile Friday.
It was "Give Kids A Smile" day. And some area dentists donated time and resources to help kids. Dr. Roger Pecina's Afdent office in Mishawaka was one of many that offered free cleanings and exams all day for kids who qualified.
Nicci Hurcomb, an associate dentist of Afdent says, "I feel it's important to give back to the kids or the community. As well as Dr. Pecina feels that's something we an do for the kids that are under served, that probably wouldn't get a normal cleaning."
Give Kids a Smile Day is a nationwide program.

Rick Westbrook, Salt Lake City branch manager for the staffing and consulting firm Robert Half International, says résumés cannot stand out when job seekers resort to overused phrases in describing their qualifications for a position.
What are some of the most overused phrases on résumés?
It's important when seeking a job to avoid the use of clichés and buzzwords. Hiring managers want to see concrete examples of professional achievements and how someone's skills can be applied to the specific position. By using the clichéd phrases and buzzwords listed below, you run the risk of your résumeé being overlooked, as it doesn't convey useful information with regard to the value your skill sets can bring to the organization. Steer clear of highly qualified, hard worker, flexible, team player, problem solver and people person.
How can job seekers make their résumés stand out to employers?
According to an OfficeTeam survey, executives on average spend six minutes reviewing a résumeé. In a highly competitive job market, hiring managers spend the most time on candidates who have the requisite skills and experience needed for the positions they're looking to fill. To improve your chances of passing the initial screening process, craft résumés that are accurate, clear and error-free. Below are some additional tips:
Tailor the content • Customize your résumeé so it speaks directly to a potential employer's needs — mirroring the language and keywords found in the job description.
Keep it simple • Refrain from using complicated language, clichéd phrases, graphics or distracting fonts. All can make your résumeé difficult to read. Where appropriate, use bullet points.
Clear the clutter • Don't muddle your message by filling your résumeé with extraneous personal information, such as hobbies and interests that have little or no relevance to your professional pursuits.
Focus on ROI (return on investment) • A common résumeé trap is including a laundry list of skills rather than demonstrating actual achievements. No matter how relevant or impressive your skill set may be, employers want to see how your expertise and efforts will affect the company's bottom line.
Give some interview tips.
Do your homework. Study the company and ask the interviewer relevant questions that demonstrate your interest in the firm. Keep it real. Offer examples and anecdotes that help illustrate your strengths, but do not embellish or lie. Pretending to be someone you're not to impress the interviewer can help you land the job, but you may end up in a position for which you're unqualified. Answer questions the right way. Try to take your time to give thoughtful, sincere responses, and keep your answers simple, focused and brief. Don't feel pressured to rattle off what you think the interviewer wants to hear. If you're unsure of an answer to a question, say so. Express enthusiasm. Show the hiring manager that you don't just want a job; you want this job. Ask the interviewer about his or her own history with the company; where the company hopes to be in a few years and how the job you are applying for fits into that plan; the type of person who is likely to be successful.
Other advice?
Whether revitalizing a job-search or starting fresh, it's important to remain positive. Although the employment environment remains competitive, the job market is strong for highly skilled professionals. Consider temp work, which can provide a valuable opportunity to get your foot in the door. Continue your education. It's never a bad idea to improve your skill set. Broaden your network. Résumés received from referrals often receive top billing among hiring managers. Talk to former co-workers and managers, college alumni and members of professional organizations you're a part of to see what new opportunities might be available.
Rick Westbrook, executive

uop2cal: Subscribe to your @PortsmouthUni timetable as an iCal feed (UPyoursUPlink?)
Anyone who goes to the University of Portsmouth will be familiar with UPlink, the University's portal system, and with the timetable it contains. Most people (especially anyone under what used to be ECE) will be familiar with the frustration of lectures changing times/dates/moving room/no longer existing despite being marked as "confirmed", and the univeristy-standard oh-so-helpful response of "You should be checking it everyday", along with the other dozen-or-so university sites we're supposed to be checking every day. (Can you notice my frustration yet? I was originally planning to call this UPyoursUPlink but have since decided on the less-offensive but less-descriptive uop2cal)
This script is a pretty simple one, it uses cURL to screen-scrape the portal and retrieve your timetable, an obnoxious set of regexes (<3) to parse the data into an array, and then the iCalcreator class to generate an ICS file of your timetable, complete with the details (name, lecturer, room, confirmed/unconfirmed (not that I can find a difference, mind), group, etc).
Update: Previously, I was supplying a hosted copy for anyone to use, but I have been advised by the University that you willingly giving me your username and password somehow contravenes the Computer Misuse Act 1990. Whether or not this is the case is irrelevant, as they have asked I stopped doing this. In any case, the source code is still available below (unless they later tell me that's a problem somehow, too), so you can run your own copy.
Update update: Apparently the University still weren't too happy with the provisions I had made the last time they contacted me, and have once again requested I remove this. As such, this source is no longer publicly available. Queries about why can be directed towards the University itself, queries about the source are welcome to me.

Look both ways
We are at a pivotal period and caution is advised
By Jim Van Meerten
We are at a very pivotal time in the market. Half of the pundits are saying that we are headed higher and the other half think we are in for a big correction. What are we to do?
You know what to do, your Mom and Dad taught you before you were six. Always look both ways before you cross the road. That road is the stock market. Should you stay where you are and wait for the traffic to clear or is it now safe to go ahead and cross to the other side?
I look at the signs. Yesterday the ValueLine Index -- an index of 1700 stocks -- closed below its 20 day moving average. BarChart's market momentum showed 61% of the stocks closed below their 20 day moving averages. The ratio of stocks hitting 20 day new highs to 20 day new lows was 537/1066 = .5 , another sign for caution. No one will fault you for sitting out a day or two.
What is happening and where are we headed? The easiest way to explain where we are is to share with you my recent experience on a trip to Florida down I-95. Traffic would speed up and everyone was flying along above the speed limit. All of a sudden red tail lights flashed and everyone slammed on the breaks.
This caterpillar or accordion effect happened over and over but there were no apparent accidents causing the slamming on of brakes. What's this got to do with the financial world? Let me explain.
Picture the financial world as 3 groups of cars: the stock market, the economy and company earnings. They are all traveling down the same highway in the same direction but occasionally they bunch up and the brakes get slammed on. You would think that drivers would not bunch up and everyone would just put the cars on cruise control at 70 and travel along like a train but that's not how the drivers think and neither do our 3 cars.
The stock market usually leads the way, it's a leading economic indicator, the economy is in the middle and earnings because they are reported after the fact usually follows the pack from behind. That's what is happening with our little convoy.
The stock market got too far out in front. The economy is trying to catch up and its leading economic indicators are catching up but its coincident indicators have been flat for 3 straight months.
Earnings are being reported now and seem to be verifying that the stock market and economy are correctly headed higher. The stock market is slowing down and allowing the rest of the convoy to catch up. We will space out again in a week or two and the stock market will get out in front again.
On my Wall Street Survivor portfolio none of my stocks are trading below their 20 day moving average so I haven't trimmed out anything and I'm fully invested. I'll just stay on the curb right now, wait for the traffic to clear and be patient.

Vasque Zephyr GTX
4-star: 4
3-star: 2
2-star: 0
1-star: 0
I have owned two pairs of this boot. THEY ROCK!!!
Materials: leather, cordura, gore-tex
Use: all
Break-in Period: nil
Weight: 3 pound or so
Price Paid: $125
I have owned two pairs of this boot. THEY ROCK!!! They have unbelievable traction, and the ankle support is right on. Break-in time is an hour or two, and they have tons of support. I am 6'4" and am 225, I usually carry a 35-40 pound load, and these boots have ALWAYS served me well. I have NO sore feet even after 20+ mile days in them.
They are good down to about 25 degrees or so, and breathe well for a Gore-tex boot. I am a bit of a boot junkie, and despite their ho-hum looks, if I were to choose one pair of boots that do-everything, these would be them.
This is a very good light- to mid-weight backpacking…
Materials: Leather and nylon, goretex lining, vibram sole
Use: Light- to mid-weight backpacking
Break-in Period: short, maybe 10-15 miles
Weight: 3 lbs 4 oz (mfr spec)
Price Paid: $105
This is a very good light- to mid-weight backpacking boot. It served me well on a 3-day backpacking trip in the Sierras with a 25-30 lb. pack, 10 mile days with 3000 ft gains (no blisters!). It had just the right amount of sole and ankle support for hiking both on- and off-trail without feeling too heavy or stiff. The Vibram sole is very grippy and was good enough for scrambling up steep boulder fields.
I didn't put the waterproofing ability of the Gore-tex liner to test. The lining is somewhat breathable but not as much as, say, the Vasque Breeze (or other boots with mesh construction) but I'd trade that for the durability of leather.
Break in was minimal - I just wore it to work for two days to loosen it up. It is a low volume boot, so get the wide size unless your feet are narrow.
I have rated this boot 4.5 stars instead of 5 for the
following reasons (and the fact that I don't know how well it will hold up over time). The heel pocket of the boot isn't as snug as it could be, so it's necessary to lace up the heel well to prevent blisters. Thankfully the locking eyelets allow different lacing pressure on the forefoot and heel sections (a great feature) and help achieve this without cramping up your toe box. Also, the earlier comment about the lack of stiffness in the lugs is true - they do twist, but I didn't find this to be much of a problem.
Shoebuy.com has great prices on Vasque shoes, and you get 10% off for registering and I got another 15% off using a coupon code I found online.
I have used this boot on several overnight and two…
Use: 2 and 3 day trips, day hikes.
Break-in Period: < 1 week
Weight: 3 lbs.
Price Paid: $150
I have used this boot on several overnight and two night trips with excellent results. They make a very good lightweight backpacking boot for on trail use. While they are not as sturdy as my heavy weight Merrells, they do the job on the vast majority of trips that I am able to put together. If you believe that one pound on the foot equals five on the back then you will appreciate these shoes.
They also do a great job for snowshoeing, giving enough stability and keeping my feet dry.
There was no problem wearing these out of the box, but they have gotten more comfortable with time.
I used this boot for a week-long trip in Yosemite.
Materials: Gore-tex
Price Paid: $115
I used this boot for a week-long trip in Yosemite. Up and down Half Dome, across El Cap. Thousands of vertical feet and averages 25 miles/day. They worked great. Good grip. Solid boot, and very waterproof. They get more confortable the longer you wear them. Definitely a good boot for the weekend warrior and can handle longer trips if necessary.
This boot is for the big foot of the average joe,…
Materials: Gore-tex and big toe bumper
Use: walking and hiking with light pack
Break-in Period: over 6 months now
Weight: 3 lbs
Price Paid: $160
This boot is for the big foot of the average joe, for me I had to step up the socks to get the right fit but these have been truly great. The Gore-tex on these are good and the tread has stuck with me. I walk all over for my job and going to school at night, and out to my parents' farm on the weekends to hike up and down the Tennessee hills where our cows and horses run. These are what I have been trying to find in a light boot.
I bought this boot specifically to hike the John Muir…
Materials: Leather with Gore-Tex interior
Use: 19-day/220 miles of mountains.
Break-in Period: Three weeks/60 miles
Weight: 175 with 30-40 pound pack
Price Paid: $160
I bought this boot specifically to hike the John Muir Trail thinking that it was a "heavy backpacking boot." Instead of listening to a salesman and other reviews I should have read Vasque's description "A lightweight backpacker with a streamlined, lower-volume fit, the Zephyr's tri-density EVA midsole is designed to carry smaller loads on athletic, fast-paced overnights."
The fit was about right but tended to blister my middle three toes on both feet -- should have gone 1/2 size larger, but other reviews indicated the shoe was large. Arch support was solid at first, but about 15 days into a 19-day hike I began to experience arch-related pain and Morton's Nuroma in both feet that I attribute to increased flex in the mid-sole as the boot began to break down under 10-15 mile days on rough trail. Also, as the flex increased, the upper material creased and began to "bite" me on my left instep.
This makes it sound like a problem boot, but I used it for the wrong application. As a day or overnight hiking/backpacking boot I would not hesitate to take it on the hardest trails. It has a great lacing system that lets you tighten the upper and lower sections differently, the sole gripped very well (very dry conditions), and the uppers saved my ankles during several serious twists.
These boots are very comfortable and great for use…
Price Paid: $159 ?
These boots are very comfortable and great for use on the trail. My boots pretty much went straight from the box to the Sierras with maybe an hour or two of break in, which it really didn't need.
Unfortuntely, the rubber on the sole is a bit soft and the space between the lugs is deep. Therefore, if you are carrying a load over uneven ground or climbling/rock-hopping you can feel the lugs squish and twist under your foot. There is also a bit more flex in the foot and less side-to-side ankle support than I would prefer.
So, I think that these are great for trail use but I would definitely think twice before using them off-trail or up a mountain (again).

Are Progressives Harming the Cause by Attacking Organized Religion and People of Faith?
Stay up to date with the latest headlines via email.
Editor's Note: A short time ago, AlterNet received a very thoughtful letter from one of our readers. Professor James Rohrer wrote that while he was a long-time loyal AlterNet reader, he was concerned about our coverage of faith and religion. His complaint was that AlterNet too frequently portrays religion as the domain of right-wing fundamentalism and carries an overall anti-religious editorial tilt. Rohrer argued this has the effect of alienating millions of our readers who are progressively inclined. He challenged us to consider whether this approach stands in the way of building the unity we need to achieve the broad social change that the vast majority of Americans want.
Rohrer's letter, which echoed concerns we receive from time to time from colleagues and readers, prompted an extensive internal conversation, and we concluded that something has to change. In that spirit, we asked Prof. Rohrer to write an article about his thoughts on the matter, published below. Over the coming weeks we will be relaunching our Belief section, and publishing a wider array of coverage on faith and religion and its role in daily life and politics. (We have already started down this path with Vision editor Sara Robinson's recent article, " Six Reasons We Can't Change the Future Without Progressive Religion.")
My brother and I took divergent spiritual paths at an early age. More than half a century ago my brother, now a high-school science teacher and a militant atheist, mortified my mother when he told a sweetly smiling Sunday School teacher that he planned to return the following week "to break every damned window in this place." My mother was not shocked by his lack of piety—she was a feminist with Unitarian Universalist leanings and had left orthodox Christianity behind years earlier –but by his rudeness. In truth we rarely ever attended church because my mother refused to sanction patriarchal religion and my dad hated to worship alone. But mom was gracious, even to people that she disagreed with in matters of religion and politics.
While my brother over the years has steadfastly scorned all expressions of religious faith as irrational superstition, I have been drawn to a lively spirituality since my earliest recollections. As a child on our Appalachian farm I wandered the hills and forests and prayed to a God that I truly felt as a living presence. I did not acquire my beliefs by having them forced upon me by parents or any organized religion; they grew as naturally and effortlessly as my physical body.
Over the years I have participated in many faith communities, have studied religion professionally, and have taught history and religion at several colleges and universities in the United States and abroad, some of them public and some of them religious institutions. I know that the line between good and evil does not run between religions -- any more than it runs between nations or races (all three are social constructs after all); my colleagues and close friends represent many different faith traditions, and some, like my brother, embrace a wholly secular stance toward life. By choice, however, I identify myself as a Christian. After half a century, I could no more deny my religious convictions than I could deny any other part of my Self.

Ask Klaus!
Ask Klaus!
Fedora Core 5 I recently installed the Fedora Core 5. I installed the productivity version on an AMD Athlon 1300 using a Lite On DVD drive. Although the installation went fine, I cannot mount the drive for any other use after the install. An error message would be helpful here, but I am guessing that: 1. There is a mountpoint (empty directory) that is supposed to be the location where you can see what's on a mounted DVD. Usually this is /media/ dvd or some similar path.
