Turgid Or Flaccid?? Herc Sizes Up HBO Penis Sitcom HUNG!!
I am – Hercules!!
An unusually sharp and unusually funny sitcom from "The Riches" husband-and-wife writing team of Colette Burson and Dmitry Lipkin," "Hung" follows handsome, newly divorced Detroit high school coach Ray Drecker, whose economic circumstances inspire him to start using his gargantuan willy to pursue a career as man-whore.
The series stars Thomas Jane ("The Punisher"!) as the oversized "happiness consultant," Jane Adams ("Frasier") as his pimp and Anne Heche ("Men In Trees") as his ex-wife.
As directed by Alexander Payne (who's made a career crafting hilarious portraits of deluded losers like "Election," "About Schmidt" and "Sideways"), the pilot offers a lot of cunningly undersold character comedy -- the kind that could be easy to miss if the viewer isn't vigilant, so all are encouraged to keep eyes and ears open. There's an attention to detail that's rare in Payne's realm of independent filmmaking and almost non-existent in television.
The series starts out exceedingly well, with Drecker giving a hilariously uninspiring speech to his terrible basketball team. (I'm still chuckling about the player who guesses the coach's discussion of the dung beetle's lifestyle might be a plea for "more man-to-man coverage.") I laughed again at the early montage of fire hazards in Drecker's post-divorce cabin home. I laughed when I realized Drecker's daughter was a really convincing actress. I laughed again when misfortune finally fully stripped away Drecker's neighborliness. I laughed at the blunt high-decibel contempt that spilled out of Drecker's ex-mother-in-law. I laughed at the Adams character's unhinged, high-pitched vocalizing as Drecker sent her rocketing into orgasm. That's a lot of laughter for just the first half-hour.
There's a lot of talk in a get-rich-quick class Drecker attends about finding "the tool" that will bring success, but the term is played more to further the plot than solicit a giggle. Material like this is tricky, but the creators are careful to keep the characters relatable and Payne keeps the pilot's tone far from the domain of sex-romp.
Jane brings movie-strength charisma to Drecker and even the smallest parts in the pilot are exceedingly well cast. The standout is Adams, who demonstrates at times almost otherworldly comic acumen as the poet-turned-temp who turns out to be a bit of a marketing genius.
I say add "Hung" to your DVR; it's season-passworthy.
Variety says:
… wryly funny … Boasting fine performances by Thomas Jane and Jane Adams, coupled with sharp writing, "Hung" really does offer those willing to pay for it (HBO, that is) a bountiful package. …
The Hollywood Reporter says:
… pretty darned funny, especially once you get past the 45-minute pilot and into the half-hour regular episodes (smaller is better, actually). …
The New York Times says:
… oddly beguiling, a downbeat screwball comedy in R-rated clothing. … really comes alive after Mr. Jane teams up with Jane Adams …
The Los Angeles Times says:
… attempts to be a surprisingly subtle study of modern adulthood in difficult economic times. (In case you don't get this, it's set in Detroit.) In this it occasionally succeeds, but at a cost to the sexual farce or frisson one might expect from such a setup. Regrettably, the word "flaccid" often comes to mind. …
The Chicago Tribune says:
… Perhaps we still expect too much from HBO; not every show is going to be the next "Sopranos" or "Deadwood." But "Hung," it must be said, is less than advertised.
The San Francisco Chronicle says:
… Who knew that when HBO announced it was green-lighting a series called "Hung" about, let's see, a well-endowed man, it would end up being kind of endearing? It's also funny, which is good since "Hung" is a comedy. And it's unexpectedly sweet and has depth … The pilot, directed by Alexander Payne ("Sideways"), is superb, and the first handful of episodes (there are 10 in the season), prove that the writing is consistently strong, the characters multidimensional and the tone assured and surprising in its depth. With "Hung," HBO might have found its next big thing.
The Newark Star Ledger says:
… has more to offer than just John Thomas jokes. Amidst all the sniggering humor about how Ray has been taught to "do your best with the gifts God gave you" is some smart comedy about the state of 21st century America in general, as well as a superb lead performance from Thomas Jane. … Lipkin's previous show, FX's "The Riches," also was a dark series about the emotional cost of illegally getting rich quick, but it seemed almost allergic to laughter, despite the presence of the normally funny Eddie Izzard and Minnie Driver as its stars. And that made Lipkin's various sociological points difficult to sit through. This time, Lipkin and Burson seem to have recognized that with a great endowment comes great responsibility to make jokes about it -- especially if those jokes then provide cover to talk about everything else.
The Boston Globe says:
… Like many half-hour cable series, particularly those on Showtime, "Hung'' leans heavily on the black comedy, but pathos is never far away. … it's this grounding in character drama that helps "Hung'' transcend its gimmicky genital premise. For me, the best part of "Hung'' is Adams, who makes Tanya a brittle joy with neurotic lines such as, "My mother was right, I'm too desperate to be liked.'' …
The Washington Post says:
… Ray Drecker is supposed to be a lovable loser, that furry fixture of the modern sitcom, but he's about as lovable as snakes on a plane -- either the actual occurrence or the horrendous movie of that name. Drecker is a shuffling, fumbling imbecile whose run of bad luck seems largely the result of his own stupidity. Who cares if he's miserable? … The number of plays on the word "tool" seems uncountable. … "I don't think it's funny; I think it's sad," someone says near the end of the premiere, and as happens frequently with new shows, it sounds too much like self-criticism. …
The Pittsburgh Post-Gazette says:
… one of those shows that's amusing and may make viewers nod in recognition of a familiar character type or behavior. But "Hung" is not a laugh riot. … It's possible that "Hung" will lighten up as time goes on. The weak ending to Sunday's pilot is trite and feels like a half-hearted effort to be uplifting. It doesn't work. But the end of the fourth episode is almost sweet …
Entertainment Weekly says:
… Hung's awkward tone (partly intentional, since the pilot was directed by Alexander Payne, writer-director of that gem of awkward comedy Sideways) becomes frustrating. The series needs to commit: Either evolve into a funny, sexy stud-romp or hang it up. …
USA Today says:
… The pity, for those who might get hung up on the premise, is that there are moments when Hung has the makings of both a smart social satire and a sweet romantic comedy. It's just that its virtues have been buried under the kind of meandering plots and underpowered dialogue that mark so many TV comedies these days, which seem unable to decide whether they'd rather be unfunny comedies or insufficiently serious dramas. Indeed, the episodes tend to be so shapeless and leisurely paced, you might be watching a very long movie that just happened to get cut up into random segments. …
10 p.m. Sunday. HBO.

i'm really hoping i'll like this show, as payne is one of my favorites (don't know much about the lipkins, though), but i'm afraid my own feelings of inadequacy will keep me from warming to it. it'll be rather awkward watching it with my girlfriend -- almost like watching porn in which the guy's cock is so distractingly big that i can't enjoy the scene for what it is. douche chills.

I've been looking forward to this since it was announced way back when. After I saw the first few trailers, I knew it was going to be something great. Maybe even better than Eastbound & Down. That's probably not true, though. Kenny Powers' dick is probably triple the size of Ray Drecker's.

I'd rather watch a series about a well endowed woman
by ev1ldead
trying to fuck her way through the top of Hollywood. You know like a scriptgirl biopic series. But I have high expectations for this too. Trailer looks good, excellent talent before and behind the camera.
 Not as high expectations of course as for Boardwalk Empire and Game of Thrones. If HBO passes on any of those 2 they should change their name to Lifetime deluxe.
 I'm still pissed about them not pickung up Preacher and David Milch's Last of the Ninth. Cocksuckers.

Watch INTO THE STORM, the HBO movie on Churchill instead
by YackBacker
Brendon Gleeson as Winston Churchill is excellent. The production values are very good too. It's amazing to consider the life and contributions of Churchill, and where we would have ended up without his leadership. But, if you like shows about large penises, I guess HUNG is more your speed.
June 28, 2009, 10:31 a.m. CST
Oh and a big F-U to the San Francisco Chronicle reviewer above
by YackBacker
Saying "HBO might have found its next big thing" is a desperate attempt to have your name included in promo material for HUNG. Go. Fuck. Yourself.
June 28, 2009, 10:31 a.m. CST
YackBacker, Churchill racist dick advocated gassing people.
by EvilWizardGlick
Fuck dud read Human Smoke. Churchill had some very evil ideas.
June 28, 2009, 10:32 a.m. CST
Would it be racist if Black man?
by EvilWizardGlick
I wonder if people would be bitching about a Black guy as the main character?
June 28, 2009, 10:33 a.m. CST
EvilWizardGlick, true about the gassing
by YackBacker
And about bombing civilians, but those were the rules of engagement on both sides of World Wars I and II. I'm not saying Churchill was a saint, that would be wrong and silly. I am saying he was a consequential figure who did more to thwart German tyranny than anyone else in his position. And I'll take an imperfect man who is able to stare down the truly racist mass murderer Adolf Hitler.
June 28, 2009, 10:37 a.m. CST
YackBacker, Serious hate of Bolshevicks skewed
by EvilWizardGlick
Churchills serious hatred of Bolsheviks skewed his view on European Jews. Initially he embraced Hitler as a bulwark against Bolshevism.
 Again from Human Smoke it seems that was why so few Jews were allowed to escape Europe. Not only because of Churchill but FDR as well.
 Plus Churchill advocated gassing civilians in the Middle East. Places like modern day Iraq which had oil.
 Fucking horrible man that history has been overly generously kind.
June 28, 2009, 10:40 a.m. CST
YackBacker, actually his and FDR's policies
by EvilWizardGlick
Their policies made the situation much worse. Not only the food blockade but the continual firebombing of food crops. They also attempted a low grade biological warfare aimed at food crops and civilians.
 History belongs to the victorious.
June 28, 2009, 10:42 a.m. CST
People who put all of their faith in one book
by YackBacker
are generally known as fundamentalists. I'm not saying "Human Smoke" is incorrect because I haven't read it (I know of it, though). But the mistreatment of fleeing Jews by the US and Europe is a well-documented side-issue to the bigger picture-- that Churchill was integral in the West's ultimate victory over Germany. There are no perfect heroes in history, I've accepted that fact long ago. Deconstructing Churchill might seem like an honest take on history, but I think doing so skews too far to the negative, overshadowing his essential contribution to a greater good.
June 28, 2009, 10:44 a.m. CST
And you're right, history belongs to the victorious
by YackBacker
And I cringe to think of how a victorious Hitler would have white-washed the Holocaust had he defeated the West. I'll trade low-grade biological warfare for the Final Solution any day of the week.

Are people still worried about the state of HBO?
by Dijonase24
Between In Treatment, Eastbound & Down, No. 1 Ladies Detective Agency, Flight of the Conchords, and True Blood (though mostly as a problematic guilty pleasure) I think there's been a lot to love on HBO lately. Sure, they had an impossibly perfect streak there where The Wire, Deadwood, and The Sopranos were all on the air at the same time, but should we really fault them because there's not a show of that caliber on right now? Those things don't just happen. Those shows are all among the best ever. They're not always going to have best ever caliber stuff on the air, but between what's on now and what's in the works I think there's a lot of great stuff on HBO.

by HollywoodHellraiser
are now a rarity unless its a foreign film!
I mean Jessica Alba and her creed of talentless younger actresses should by no means get paid for what they called acting!
Do I think they should show some skin? Hell yeah, its not like people are busting down the door to see their movies.
What we get are cockteases and little payoff.
Guys may sound chavunist when they say so-so should get naked but we only say that because the actress we're referring to sucks!
I remember the joke in Scary Movie about the gay athelete and how it just went on forever, even to the point of a fake penis in the ear!
And women aren't excluded. I was looking at Degrassi recently nd its seems almost every girl is now gay!
WTF, its gotten ridiculous.

by Cymbol
I would be just as turned off from watching a show if it were called "Big Tits". Maybe the show is good - but it's hard to find the time to squeeze a show called "Hung" into my busy schedule. Perhaps when it hits the rental store if reviews are good. It's a pass for me.

EvilWizardGlick: It wouldn't be racist if it were a black...
by Kai_Mah'gra
...lead. However, there would still be bitching galore about it. By black people about being stereotyped (facetiously, of course), and by white people about the impropriety (**cough*Injustice*cough**) of it all.
 That's why a movie like Boogie Nights would never have been the critical success it was if starred Taye Diggs or even Don Cheadle, who was in the movie, as opposed to Mark Whalberg.
 A White guy with a big dick is a nice anachronism that makes us all feel good, or at least, ok, about exploring the dramatic, and in the case of Hung, the comedic potential in situations offered up by an otherwise taboo subject.

While I agree with you that is a corny joke, it really is just part of Tim Goodman's sarcasm. As a San Francisco native, Tim Goodman has always been a bad-ass reviewer because he lives in snark, and for the most part, this guy is usually right on the money with his reviews and recommendations.

Needs More Rough Anal
by Blast_Hardcheese
That one "poet" girl must have a really deep twat. Also, it would of been better if instead of the girl at the hotel changing her mind, it ended with a shot of a fat woman's face scruched up in pain from a huge dong in her butt. Then he pulls out after overflowing her poop chute and then she accidentally poops all over the bed from her bunghole being stretched out. That's a Tijuana Milkshake by the way.

State of HBO
by Dijonase24
That seems pretty harsh, Ash0k. I listed The Wire, Sopranos, and Deadwood as "best ever" caliber shows. Of the networks you mentioned I'd only say that ABC and AMC can claim that kind of quality (what with Lost, Mad Men, and Breaking Bad). I don't have Showtime so I can't speak for it, but I hear great things about Dexter. And with The Shield gone I don't really think FX has anything that would quite qualify, though Always Sunny and Sons of Anarchy are definitely up there.

 My point was only that HBO seems to be far from done, and I'm surprised when people brush it off as easily as you just did. The first season of In Treatment was very good, and the second was as good as anything else I saw this year. No. 1 Ladies Detective Agency was offbeat an pleasant, and a very welcome change of pace for HBO. Flight of the Conchords competes with Always Sunny and 30 Rock for the funniest show on TV (in mine eyes, anyway). I liked Eastbound & Down well enough, but I know that a lot of other people absolutely loved it. True Blood is basically crap, but I think it's exceedingly enjoyable crap.

 That doesn't take into account their mini-series and original movies (which are generally top-notch), the other shows I can't account for since I don't watch them, or the stuff someone else mentioned that's coming (Treme, the Atlantic City show, Bored to Death). Like I said, they're missing a show that gets mentioned as an "all-time great," but I don't really think you can fault them that. I've enjoyed everything I've watched on HBO lately so I feel like I'm getting what I'm paying for.

 Or maybe I'm just trying to convince myself I'm not wasting my money. Either way.

Thought it was pretty funny
by DukeofNewYork
has nice potential. HBO is great, not sure what the bitching is about. Where's the love for Big Love? Flight of the Conchords was fucking hilarious, too bad Bret and Jemaine decided against a third season. Life and Times of Tim was something that caught me waaaay of guard with its hilarity, I didn't watch it till the season had run and now I can't get enough. Entourage is terrible now but still worth a watch just in case. Curb Your Enthusiasm is terrific, cannot wait for the new season with the Seinfeld cast. Eastbound and Down was funny, not as funny as some swear it to be but it grows on you quickly. HBO has all the broadcast networks beat IMO. easily. and I haven't even seen True Blood, vampires don't do anything for me but the prospect of anna naked is a plus

Yawning? So while watching a show about a guy with a huge dick, your mouth kept opening wide reflexively? I think your subconscious is trying to tell you something.

 You know what's funny? Most of the people bitching about the premise of Hung probably list Boogie Nights as one of their favorite films. Also funny to see all the whining about male nudity as if it's so commonplace now. Really? Name 10 films or TV shows that have shown male nudity in the last two years. Now do the same with female nudity. Yeah, shut the fuck up with that homophobic horseshit.
June 29, 2009, 1:29 p.m. CST

by Col. Tigh-Fighter
Come on mate. That is the most repressed comment I think Ive ever read! lol. You're not doing yoursef any favours with that post :D
 In Quadrophenia Ray Winstone and Phil Davis share a bath. Not in a gay way (if you can actually believe 2 men can be in a bath together withourt being gay). In the 80;s French cartoon The Mysterious Cities of Gold the two little boys go swimming in the river naked. Nothing gratuitous, just had no swim suits so took off their clothes and jumped in the water. This is what we watched in the 70's and 80's in Europe.
 Reading this TB makes me think of the Simpsons "Wont somebody think of the children!"
 In conclussion I deduce real Americans get scared at the thought of naked men lol. Is that what your saying Ash0k? ;)

by Ace of Knaves
the simple fact is you shouldnt be afraid of penises or their mention because we all have one, acknowledging this fact, or even putting on a program highly relevant to this fact does not denote homosexuality. Its a show about a guy using his huge cock to bang chicks. nothing gay about it. Kepp your own issues ( with your intellect, sexuality, and penis size) to yourself. This is a good program . You were probaly one of those little creeps snickering at doctor manhattan's dong, telling yourself it was overkill , and no guys dick is that big flaccid. yeh keep telling yourself that.

Xenophobic? Check. Usage of the "libtard" insult? Check. Rampant fear of male genitalia? Check. Reliance on the "Real American" meme? Check.

 You wouldn't happen to be republican, would you? I hope for your sake this is just your talkback "tough guy" gimmick. Because honestly, in the context of this talkback, your comments don't make a lot of sense. By the way, I'm Canadian. Let the witty, Limbaugh-approved insults fly!

 As for the show, I appreciated that the supporting cast (i.e. his kids, the poet chick) looked like real people instead of airbrushed actors. Man, some of you are so quick to condemn a new show. Like I said in the Philanthropist talkback nobody read, you deserve all the shitbag reality shows and police/lawyer/doctor procedurals clogging the airwaves. Nothing satisfies some of you. There's a Hung pun hidden in there somewhere.

Problem is none of it interesting. They had the greatest show ever... Deadwood and shit canned it. What did we get instead? Lucky Louie, Tell Me You Love Me and In Treatment(Im fuckin tired of people in therapy). Gee where are those shows now?? Meanwhile HBO turns down Mad Men, which could have been huge for them. Only thing interesting to me is Entourage prob has a couple years left and The Pacific is next year.
June 29, 2009, 5:31 p.m. CST
by CaptainAxis
Now THERE is a terrible show, like fingernails on a blackboard. I've tried to watch it many times and every time it quickly reveals its truly retarded nature. It's like The O.C. with swearing, tits and ass. If you look up Ash0k's favorite word "metrosexual" in the latest dictionary, you'll see a picture of the Entourage cast. I can see why anybody who likes Entourage would be "bored" by Hung. It's not shiny and flashy enough. Perhaps a tinfoil ball is more your speed.

Thomas Jane
by CaptainAxis
Terrible? Really? I didn't see anything wrong with him at all, although I did keep noticing how much he looks like James Purefoy when he squints. He felt very real, emotionally distant and his argument with the poet chick was great. If she wanted more than his cock, she wouldn't have hopped right into bed with him... twice. Finally, an argument where the man doesn't look like a total idiot.

 Now, can you provide any examples other than a vague "he sucked"?
June 29, 2009, 10:35 p.m. CST

Racist if a black star?
by Hipshot
Not if it isn't. Sure, some people would knee-jerk in that direction but if: 1) They address the cultural stereotypes (might be a selling point for him!) 2) He is a multi-dimensional human being, with hopes, needs, dreams, family, career, etc, and not just a "type." 3) There are other black men on the show, providing balanced imagery. Then I'd say casting black would be a choice. I'd be nervous--not real happy with the black folks on "True Blood" (both men criminals, one gay and cringing in slave-like manacles. Yuck) but I'd be willing to give it a chance.

Actually the kids are the one thing the show got completely right. the kid wasn't that gothy. I'm originally from Michigan and have family and friends there still. Those kids are exactly like kids in Michigan. Pudgy, reserved, punky/gothy but not overtly so. Spot on if you asked me.

by Ace of Knaves
simply adopting a style doesnt make someone a weirdo this day in age, and at least here in california, i see plenty of punk/goth/emo kids in malls, on buses, everywhere, and i'm sure paramore and taking back sunday arent only selling tickets and cd's here otherwise they wouldnt be nationwide successes. wake up. all that counterculture "weirdness" you fear is become so ridiculously mainstream and commonplace no one who actually gets out even thinks twice about it. It's just fashion. It's harmless. Where you have your brown shirts and jackboots, this kid has spiked bracelets and lipstick, so what. "why would a television show for designed for entertainment think to create conflicting scenarios such as a jock dad with goth kids? That's so ludicrous and necessary? those yahoos at hbo can only be responsible! Surely there hasnt been contrived ideas in any family based sitcom on any other network before!" grow up.
June 30, 2009, 11:17 a.m. CST
I enjoyed it
by JonKrause
I avoided this talkback before watching the show and when watching it with an open mind I found it quite enjoyable! The casting is good and while the first episode probably won't be remembered as one of the best, it nicely sets up the entire series and I like the possibilities of where it can go. Being someone from Detroit, I also really liked the fact that they've really taken their location to heart. They didn't just say "This show will take place in Detroit" and then film a bunch of generic scenes that could take place anywhere. I've been to every one of those locations in the opening credits and it was pretty cool to see them on an HBO show like this. Just my two cents.
June 30, 2009, 11:31 a.m. CST
Finally got around to watching it on DVR
by Itchy
Not bad. It's got some potential. They need to ratchet up the laughs, though. And they could have done a slightly better job casting ... I mean, I'd fuck Anne Heche straight or gay, but those two kids are downright unpleasant to look at, and Jane Adams ain't exactly eye candy. On the other hand, it was funny to see all the shots in and around Detroit ... funny seeing my hometown on a show. They certainly managed to find the worst of the dumps sitting around the city, that's for sure.
June 30, 2009, 12:12 p.m. CST
by CaptainAxis
Yeah, teenagers just LOVE to emulate their parents, don't they? It's not like kids ever rebel against their parents or anything. Seriously, you're allowed to use your brain before you post.

 Itchy, you'd be better off watching Entourage if you don't like looking at "unpleasant" people. This is what people look like in the real world, most aren't airbrushed, emaciated models.
June 30, 2009, 12:39 p.m. CST

Hi !
I love HeidiSQL ! Long time I was working with MySQL Workbench but 3 days ago I heard about HeidiSQL and I will no longer use any ohter
When connecting to a MSSQL Server with UserName & PWD it works, using SQL Server Authentification.
I at the moment have no idea how to connect to this 2005 MSSQL using integrated Windows Security ?
What do I have to do or is this feature currently not available.

Windows authentication is not yet supported in Heidi. Not sure if I will be able to manage that. But I guess you can pass the same credentials as you do on a Windows log on.

Hi Angsar !
I tried that - logging on with windows username and pwd - but that doesnt work. As I am a developer myself (but not delphi ) I know that when connecting to a mssql server with windows authetication requires a parameter like [Integrated Security=SSPI].

I just tried this when running HeidiSql in Wine on a Mint install. basically I need to tell the server that I'm using windows/AD credentials, but provide them in the username/password field. (My linux install isn't member of the domain).
I tried domain\username, usename alone and firstname.lastname@example.com - neither let me login.

Major First! FDA Grants First 3D Printed Implant Clearance
March 5, 2013
by Biloine W. Young in the Orthopedics This Week
The FDA has, for the first time, awarded its 510(k) clearance for an additively manufactured polymer implant. The product, called the OsteoFab Patient Specific Cranial Device (OPSCD), is manufactured by Oxford Performance Materials (OPM) of South Windsor, Connecticut.
"OsteoFab" is OPM's brand for additively manufactured medical and implant parts produced from PEKK (polyetherketoneketone) polymer. OPM's process (also called "3D Printing"), "grows" implants layer by layer directly from a digital CAD file without the aid of tooling. Company officials say that there are few practical limits on what can be produced. As such, the OsteoFab technology is ideal for one-of-a kind implants specifically shaped to each patient's anatomy. One desirable use of patient specific implants, and the motivation for the OPSCD, is cranial implants to replace bony voids in the skull due to trauma or disease.
The cranial implant (OPSCD) is manufactured from PEKK, an ultra high performance polymer used in biomedical implants. OPM had traditionally sold PEKK as a raw material or in a semi-finished form, but began developing additive manufacturing technologies in 2006. In 2011, OPM established a biomedical compliant manufacturing facility in South Windsor, to support its growing additive manufacturing business. As an implantable polymer, PEKK is biocompatible, mechanically similar to bone, and radiolucent so as not to interfere with X-Ray equipment. OPM has recently completed testing which, it says, confirms that the OsteoFab implant surface is osteoconductive.
"It is our firm belief that the combination of PEKK and additive manufacturing (our OsteoFab technology) is a highly transformative and disruptive technology platform that will substantially impact all sectors of the orthopedic industry," said Scott DeFelice, President and CEO of OPM. "We have sought our first approval within cranial implants because the need was most compelling; however, this is just the beginning. We will now move systematically throughout the body in an effort to deliver improved outcomes at lower overall cost to the patient and healthcare provider." DeFelice said that OPM's strategy is to undertake all manufacturing and regulatory activities to support patient specific implant product commercialization.

I've missed all of you guys too! I've just been busy, but I'm hoping to make time to catch up on this blog and be more active VERY SOON ;)!
Nope, sorry! I have no idea how to make themes at all :X
I guess we'll find out soon :)!
lol that is such a cop out. I really don't think Mona is that crazy.
I thought it was supposed to be Jason because of the stab wound he had, but it could be! Wren is very shady.
Yep, unfortunately, I'm pretty sure that's the route their taking.
But A has been around since before Alison died!!
EXACTLY!!! The twin theory, to me, just seems so cliche and a cop out. Like, really? An "evil twin" ??? It's so corny. Let's not forget that these are teenage girls. I don't care how badass Alison was, she was a CHILD and children can only get away with so much. I still have a sliver of hope that the writers are not going to go with the twin theory simply because every time that any of the girls have "seen" Ali, they've been drugged or otherwise impaired in some way. Hanna seeing Ali in the finale meant nothing because of all the smoke and having just been knocked out. It's very easy to be confused and disoriented in that situation.

Johan Santana DL
+ Johan Santana DL
Tue Jan 31, 2012 2:17 pm The Mets are hopeful Santana will enter spring training at 100 percent, but what does 100 percent really mean for him? Santana's velocity and strikeout rate consistently dropped during his time with the Mets. While he had a sub-3.00 ERA in 2010, Santana's 6.5 K/9 rate was more like that of a middle-of-the-rotation starter. With the Mets moving the wall in at Citi Field, a sub-3.00 ERA would seem like a stretch even in the best case.
Fantasy Source Spin: He's a huge risk after shoulder issues and probably doesn't have the ace upside that most owners remember.

Rajon Rondo-Boston Celtics Point Guard The Celtics have been on a tear since the NBA All-Star break, winning 15 of 20 games due in large part to the much improved play of Rondo, who dished out double-digit assists for his 17th consecutive game last night, finishing with 15 dimes along with 7 points to help lead his Celtics to a 103-79 win over the 76ers to take a commanding 3-game lead in the Atlantic Division with 10 games remaining. What once looked like a lost season that would lead to Rondo being traded away, now looks like it could be one to remember if the Celtics continue their much improved play into the NBA playoffs.

Roger died three years ago. Six months later my mom go sick and I moved her into my home. About three months ago I got sick and my dr. said I cant take care of mom and myself. So I found her a really nice assisted living home.
But now I am alone. My family keep saying it has been three years I should be over it. So I can't talk about him. Which I love to do but it makes me cry. We were married 32 years. I am trying to make a life. He was my best friend. Hew was my only friend. I have not friends to call and say lets go to dinner or to a movies. My kids are not close by and they have their own families.
I just don't know what to do. I am so lonely. I visit mom everyday. Just so I have some place to go. But the nights. The nights are so lonely.I sit and cry.
And when I try to talk to my family they just do not understand. They think the sadness should be over.
Oh God, I miss him so much. I know I have to build a new life but how do you do it when you are alone. I have no reason to be alive. How do I go on without him?

19 July 2012 at 2:25pm
Hi there, I've just installed SS 3.0 - when I log into the Admin area there is no content area and when I click on the site tree links - About Us, Contact Us - nothing happens.
I am getting a error:
tinyMCE is not defined
return tinyMCE.activeEditor;
Also when I click on the Settings and History tabs I am taken to the live site?
Any suggestions?

Hi Nat,
I'm experiencing the very same problem. It seems to have been when I've been in the process of creating CMS fields, but even when I've reverted to standard Page Classes it still seems to bug out.
For a temporary fix, I have replaced the TinyMCE field as a HTMLField so I can still load content in the meantime. To do this, edit your /mysite/code/Page.php file and add the following function (or edit your existing one):
// === construct CMS fields === //
function getCMSFields() {
// get existing fields
$fields = parent::getCMSFields();
// remove Content CMS field
$fields->removeFieldFromTab('Root.Main', 'Content');
// add Content CMS field as textareafield
$fields->addFieldToTab('Root.Main', new TextareaField('Content', 'Content', 20));
return $fields;

The Response to Roar: Let's Keep it GoingPosted: November 26, 2013 Filed under: Inspiration, ROAR Movement, Show Business | Tags: body love, inspiration, self-care, the ROAR movement 3 Comments
So the thing about Roar, is that it was a celebration of where I am at right now on my journey.
My journey started long before the four minute video that you see today.
And Roar, is a symbolic event to celebrate how far I have come.
My journey has taken me from the depths of hell – when I didn't want to get out of bed for days, when I could down an ice cream cake before my roommate got out of the shower, when I would commisserate over beers from 11am to 11pm at night with other friends experiencing depression as well – to fucking Hawaii, where I am roaring and drinking coconut water and getting my ass kicked in Kundalini yoga and sleeping for what feels like the first time in ten years.
My journey has included ups and downs and hospital visits and black out binges and financial crisis and unlimited mimosa brunches and a lot of self-help books. Not to mention multiple packs of Marlboro Menthol Lights, shameful (and I mean SHAMEFUL) booty calls, and at one point, an absurd amount of Splenda.
My journey is only my own to know the details of. Many friends know bits and pieces, but only I know the extent of the ugliness.
And so, my journey is in the paragraphs that make up this blog, but also in the spaces between.
Because sometimes there are no words to express the pain and sorrow and guilt and anger that life can bring while you just sit there and attempt to fight back with weak, Nutella-covered fists.
And that's when you have to dance.
In musical theatre, we were always taught that when you become too overcome to speak, the only thing left to do is start singing.
And then, when you're too overcome to keep singing, the only thing left to do is to dance.
So Roar was my body being too overcome with emotion to sing, speak, write, or express.
All there was left to do, was fucking dance.
Dance, and celebrate everything that has happened up until this point. Because even the darkest moments can be celebrated when you finally accept that they have brought you to a point where you can party in tap shoes and a tutu like that.
So, in response to the comments that Roar is me promoting obesity, I say this:
I understand that obesity is a disease in this country.
What people need to understand, is that it's something none of us has chosen.
Binge-eating is a disorder for over eight million Americans, and a habit for millions more. Just like the alcohol, narcotic, or sex additions people may have, food is our drug.
So while we overcome our addiction to using Oreos and Domino's Deep Dish to fill the void and mask our feelings, we have to be okay with where we are at right here in this moment.
And although we've grown up being told otherwise, I've learned that it's okay to find happiness in our journey along the way, instead of waiting until we are perfect to finally be happy.
You see, "happy" is part of the definition of healthy, in my book. Probably in your book too.
And so Roar was a celebration of how happy I am to be alive. To be strong. To be able to drop down in a cooter slam, even if my thighs have cellulite. And to celebrate how healthy I finally am.
My weight has fluctuated thirty pounds up and down an obscene amount of times since the age of 18. There is no possible way that that fluctuation is more healthy for me than the extra weight that I have been holding on to since May when I became aware of my serious binge-eating.
I understand that I have extra stomach fat from my poor choices when it comes to nutrition over the years.
I understand that Nutella has no nutritional value.
But I also understand, that the first step of recovering from anything, is awareness.
I am now aware of my habits. And so during my process, I've had to learn to look in the mirror and love what I have right now.
Even if its an extra twenty-five pounds.
Looking in the mirror and looking straight at the parts of you that you've avoided accepting for your entire life, is something that takes time, patience, and quite frankly, big balls.
But it will literally benefit the planet, when we all start to do it. For the sake of everyone around us, the sooner we start to accept what's happening in our stomach region or our ass region, the sooner we can stop beating ourselves up and aquaint ourselves with this crazy concept called "self-love".
And as soon as we find the "self-love" that we've been forgetting about this whole time, the sooner we can offer more love and compassion to the people that we surround ourselves every day, instead of letting our own insecurities get in the way of our relationships.
In response to the comments that I am not fat, and I made people bigger than me feel fat:
I just want to reiterate that this was a piece about how I am often too "fat" for the entertainment business.
I've been told that I am too heavy for roles, too big for roles, too curvy for roles, and too thick for roles.
"Fat" is just the umbrella that all those words fall under.
And so I wrote that word on my body in order to peel it off, and prove to my industry, that I will never ask their permission to perform in a role again – no matter what adjective might describe me right now. I will forever dance, and sing, and laugh, on my own terms. I don't know what those terms look like yet, but from where I'm standing in my newly painted rainbow tap shoes, they look pretty fucking joyful and creative.
I peeled the words "fat" and "big" off my body to prove that no adjective will ever define my state of being again.
Because for the first time in my life, my state of being, is healthy.
This was a loud and clear message to my inner self, my soul, that I am still here. I am still alive. This bitch is still kickin'.
Literally. Like, fan kicking my face.
And finally, to the hundreds of comments from people who felt inspired by this piece and who took the time out of their busy days to write me and let me know that they benefited from this story, I say this:
Thank you, from the bottom of my masking-tape covered heart, thank you.
I am so thankful to be a part of your journey, because you are now a part of mine. Just when I thought that I was just another statistic – the woman who has a problem with eating and writes about it – you all took my journey and blasted it across the web to let people know that good things are happening.
You showed your 12-year old daughter and your 9-year old son – so that they could understand that beauty comes in all shapes and sizes and we can't tease people who don't look just like us, even if we are skinny and they are not.
You sent me emails to let me know you got out your tap shoes for the first time in thirteen years because you realized it doesn't matter what flounces and bounces as you shuffle ball change – it only matters that you are doing something your body finds joyful and inspiring.
You sent me messages on Facebook to let me know that you stood in front of the mirror in your underwear and looked at your stretch marks on your stomach for the first time since your baby was born, and you learned to love them because the little person who caused them is coloring you a picture right now at the kitchen table.
And yes, you sent me messages to let me know that you, beautiful YOU, are not going to give up on your performing career just because you are not tiny. And you are not going to leave New York City, or the theatre world, until you figure out how to make your career yours, instead of molding yourself into the career.
To you, my performing family, I must quote a very wise YouTube commenter from about a week and a half ago:
"You are beautiful and by the way, good job for taking your own career in your hands. You tell people who you are, not the other way around."
Thank you to the hundreds of thousands of you who have shared this journey with your friends and your family. We have reached a million people in just over two weeks, and I feel that this positive body image celebration has the potential to change everyone's mind, eventually. Let the self-love and the body confidence spread like the plague. We will continually change ourselves, and the next generation, for the better.
If you are new to this blog, let me remind you of my mantra:
Baby steps.
None of us have to go from zero to hero today. None of us have to give up Nutella cold-turkey today. Awareness is the first step to everything. And so let it be celebrated, that a million of us are aware, today.
Whether you come to the conclusion that you will start looking at your legs each morning, accepting them despite their imperfections, and thanking them for what they actually do – carry you through your day every single day – or you decide that you are going to listen to your feelings just once this week instead of drowning them in a bag of Reese's Pieces, you are aware of your personal journey and that's all that matters today.
So I just want to say thank you to all of you, and encourage you to remember the mantra baby steps. It's the least overwhelming mantra that there is, and I've also found that it's a fabulous key to happiness along the way.
As the whole of us take these baby steps together, since my dearies, we are literally all in this together, let us open our mouths and hearts and continually make a loud and raucous sound of celebration from here on out.
I don't know what the sound is that is louder than a "roar", but I know it's the sound that we are all about to make together.
And to that I say, mahalo, mahalo, mahalo, for your time.

This brought tears to my eyes! And you are so right. I've always been a little chubby and I ALWAYS let it bother me and beat myself up about it and tried to go on diets and tried to work out constantly always with this image of skinny me in my mind and nothing ever lasted. Until I literally gave up and realized I loved my body and it does a lot for me — only then did I really start taking care of my body. My poor eating habits fixed themselves. I found workouts I genuinely enjoyed and weren't chores just to get a fitter belly. I'm happier with my body than I've ever been and healthier! I firmly agree that acceptance and self love is the only way to start a journey to a healthier self, and I thank you SO MUCH for spreading this wonderful message :)
Sweetheart, not just weight issues, but growing older. Accepting that body. thank you again!!. You know; there will always be people who criticize others and tell others how wrong they are…do not listen. Filter them out. Surround yourself with the positive. If you have that many in your life now…you can choose. choose those who are there to help you succeed, not those to are there to drag you back down. Keep going!!!

Join 500,000+ Artists
Its' free and it takes less than 10 seconds!
I finally decided to start a sketch book. If I want to be a concept artist, then I think a sketch book critiqued by my peers is a good step in the right direction.
So a little bit about me.
I am currently a student at the Kendall College of Art and Design. I am working with a digital illustration major and hope to one day become a concept artist.
I dabble in everything from weapon, character and creature design, but have been focusing on environments as of late.
More recent work can be fond in subsequent pages.

Some more quick paints
And sorry about having the images smashed so close together. Im still trying to get the hang of how CA does the image posting.
cool, dindt know u had a sketchbook. those first two pics are really good.
I wouldn't say they are really good, but thanks for the comment.
And I figured out how to post pics correctly, so all further updates should be a little less cluttered.
Im going to try to update this sketchbook once or twice a week.
And hopefully, with some helpful critiques and advice, you'll see some improvement of my meagre skills.

I want to color it now. But Im not sure how to go about that right now. I'll have to save that for when I get back.

Something like 40-50 minutes.
Hmmm, Im going to start looking into posting larger, higher quality images. I think photobucket is making them one cookie cutter size right now. So I may be able to post some higher res images in the near future.
Hey, don't I know you guys from somewhere?
But this is strange. Here I thought that I sucked at brush application and texture and that industrial design was a weak point of mine. Weird.
As for the characters, I agree with you on some, but not all. Some are just really, really quick little guys, but others I think help and contribute to the story.
But I'll work harder at that from now on!
So here is a little tribute to SpaceMan Spiff of Calvin and Hobbes.
It has taken me far too long to update this page. I need to work on this stuff more.
A lot more.
I discovered this really cool feature on this site. The "whatevers" of the week. The creature thread is looking really promising, so I'll have to get cracking on that.
But until then, here are some fourty minute speedpaints.
A COW practice creature. A WIP right now.
Giant flying balloon fish.
good day sir . I just went through your book, and it seems to to me you need to do some practice with saturation and desaturation, it will help you define the distance better in environments. "The more distant the less saturated" is a good rule to remember.
Im sorry if that's already been said.

I absolutely know what your talking about. I need to keep remembering that lowering the opacity is not the same as desaturating. I will definitely keep that in mind.
Here are some quick thumbnails of the insect creature Im trying to do for the COW.
Which one do you think I should render?
Finished the fish guy. Kind of.
Giant Flygantorpe
Description: This massive fish is unique to the planet Rythan 4. It spends a good amount of time slowly swimming the tropical seas of the planet feeding on the floating seaweed found there. Oddly enough, and for reasons not yet known, this fish will often leave the water and begin to fly. It does not so much fly as it does float. It's massive body is held aloft by the large amounts of lighter than air gases contained inside. Its sides so bloated and skin so stretched, the interior organs are slightly visible. We don't know where they go from there or why. But we do know that it seems often totally fixated on the luminescent lure in front of its face. Perhaps this lures small cleaning organisms close. Maybe it helps them see in the dark clouds. Maybe they just like glowing things. We may never know.
hi mate, those insect thumbs are really sweet looking. u should make more of em.
Yes I will. Hopefully before every new piece I do now. Here is the COW entry I had been working on.
Very nice sb, awesome speed paints, that big pink fish creature is wild. Go COW! keep up the good work.
I like your COW entry. Awesome mood and texture.. only complain would be, that the garbage cans look a bit flat.
I also like your district9 piece this one

Alright, another COW update. I think I am also going to try my hand at the EOW. I loves me some environments.
But here is the most recent COW, Red Hot Doom
Artist: Duman
Concept: Magma Hound
The magma hounds are beasts that live near volcanically active areas. They are named as such for their resilience to lava, and their unique use of it. The hounds gather large quantities of lava in their mouth, and use it as a sort of shaping tool. They use the lava to create large dens under active volcanic sights.
Hey, this was a weird COW. Lots of gross stuff. Im glad I could contribute with my giant ballsack monster.
Another week, another creature.
I have also been trying to diversify into the EOW realm.
Im sure the environment shows that I do need a little time to work the rust off, but oh well.
Hey mate. I like your last cow work, in my opinion its much better than the previous one's
I think you should try to avoid more in your works these "raw" lines, like in the right down corner of your latest cow work. These one's on the creature are pretty cool, some more thick some more thin, that's the right way. In your previous cow works these too "raw" elements appear too, like these slime falling from worm tentacles or lava from red hood of doom head.
I hope these will help a bit, and sorry for my poor english if something isn't clear enough.
Another round of updates.
I really wish I could get more than two pieces (of low quality work) out a week.
College is sucking my time away, but Im not complaining. Its fantastic work. The downside being it is usually too big to scan in on my crappy printer. If anyone cares, I could try an get some digital pics of them up here.
Two more.
Im not so happy with the creature, but more so with the environment. Tough week. Going to try to get some new paintings done next week. (see weapon and speedpaint)
Another minor update.
This time its not a crappy COW or EOW, but a crappy school assignment.
Go figure.
Youve been busy good stuff man. Keep up the enviros! theyre coming along nicely!

A 60-year-old roller rink goes up in flames near Ypsilanti.
The fire started around 11:30 Thursday night.
The owner of the roller rink smelled smoke and called the fire department.
It took firefighters several hours to get the blaze under control.
At times, flames shot up 100 feet in the air.
Luckily, no one was hurt.
The cause of the fire is still under investigation, but firefighters say it started in the rink area.

Why no Nobel Peace Prize for Stanislav Petrov ? We (all of us) owe him our very lives.
As a cab-driver in a learned, intellectual city, I'm perpetually dumb-struck at the collective ignorance of (quite literally} "The Man Who Saved the World."
I wrote to the Peace Prize Commitee who haven't deigned to respond.
Never heard of him? I could tell you but you wouldn't believe me, best you find out for yourself. Then see if you agree that Mr Petrov should lift the prize, anually, hands down!
P.S. Time is limited, our hero is now 73 years old.

Chick MorganNov 25 2012: Many thanks for the info, Lori. I'm delighted to hear about the movie and the Dresden Award !
I've become a little obsessed with this story, I confess. I think it's an important tale to tell in these cynical times, though. When all these institutions we've been asked to put our faith in turn out to be rotten to the core. I don't blame people for becoming disillusioned and kind of "....what the hell's the point?" Then a story like Stanislav's shows up and it goes a long way to restoring my faith in humanity. One man who kept his head, thought for himself and decided he had to do the right thing, no matter what his orders were. If you have any military acqaintances, they'll tell you, NEVER disobey an order, no matter what ! That's the only way the military can work, evrybody can rely on everybody else to do what they're ordered to do. I imagine the penalty for going "off-piste" in 1980's USSR wre somewhat harsher than they are in 21st century western world. Colonel Petrov would have been well aware of that, which makes his heroism all the more remarkable.
I remember feeling the same way after watching a BBC documentary about a German WW2 hero in the early 80s. I thought "My God ! Why isn't this guy's story common currency ? What an inspirational, unimaginably brave man !" ( I had caught this documentary in the middle of a week-day afternoon, having taken time off sick ). It took Thomas Kineally to write the book and Steven Spielberg to make the movie to bring about a general awareness of Oscar Schindler. For my money, one of the greatest films ever.
Hopefully, these Danes will have done a job worthy of the subject matter. Again, I thank you for the news, truly uplifting !
Kind Regards,

TORONTO - Rudy Gay could barely stand as he prepared to speak to the media minutes after a back-and-forth affair with the Wizards.
The Raptors' forward, who has been battling the flu since Thursday evening, skipped shoot around Friday morning but played 31 minutes in his team's resilient 96-88 victory at the Air Canada Centre.
"I actually came here feeling worse than I did this morning, but there was no stopping me. I was going to play," Gay said, sitting down. "I was out of breath and there's other things that happen when you're sick, but I had to push through it for my team."
Gay's first-half performance reflected his pain and was just about the only thing that went wrong for Toronto in the opening 24 minutes. The Raptors shot 51 per cent, held Washington to 38 per cent - allowing 11 points on four-of-21 shooting in the second quarter - and took a commanding lead at home despite Gay going just two-of-10 from the field.
As he missed a jumper, his team up 14 late in the second quarter, the home fans - unaware of his illness - began to boo.
"He had the flu and [high] temperature and gutted it out," coach Dwane Casey said. "I was proud. He struggled a little bit, but down the stretch he came through for us."
With Gay struggling, the Raptors' good fortune finally ran out in the third quarter, an ongoing concern for the team. The Wizards outscored Toronto 32-15 in the period. John Wall had 18 alone. A 13-point halftime lead quickly became a four-point deficit. Gay had just six points on three-of-13 shooting.
"You can see why he got paid all that money," DeMar DeRozan said of Wall, who scored 30 of his game-high 37 in the second half. Toronto had no answer for Wall.
That's when Casey and the Raptors threw the Wizards a curve ball.
For the first time in four games, D.J. Augustin checked in to spell Kyle Lowry at the point. Terrence Ross, coming off a couple strong performances, and Steve Novak shared the floor as the Raptors regained control of the game with the help of Gay and their zone defence.
"We had to mix it up," Casey admitted. "Our man [defence] wasn't working. We had to go to something else and it had to be our zone. It worked for us, it got them out of rhythm and it got us into rhythm. We work religiously on the zone and guys are still learning it. It worked out for us tonight."
After losing his job as the back-up point guard four games into the season, Augustin got a rare opportunity. It was one that he received in an unfortunate circumstance with rookie Dwight Buycks - the acting back-up - away from the team following the passing of his father. Still, it was an opportunity he didn't waste. Augustin's first shot was a three-pointer, the first he's made all season after missing nine straight attempts. His quickness and knack for the draw and kick helped turn the momentum back in Toronto's favour.
"He's a pro," Casey said of Augustin. "He kind of fell out of the rotation. To his credit, the young man has worked at it. He's stayed after practice, worked late, come back at night and worked on his shot. It paid off."
"I'm a firm believer, if you're heart and your mind is in the right place good things will happen for you," said the coach. "And if they're not, you're sitting on the bench pouting and upset because somebody is getting an opportunity, nothing good is going to happen for you. His heart is in the right place, his mind is in the right place."
Augustin's resiliency sparked his team and its leading scorer. Gay was a perfect three-for-three in the fourth quarter and added three of his four blocks - one of them of the highlight variety - in the final frame.
"It just slowed down," Gay said. "I feel like I was trying to fight through the fact that I was a little sluggish, a little slow. In the fourth quarter, I just let it come to me and it was a lot easier."
Exceeding 20 assists in back-to-back games, both victories, the Raptors offence is coming along as they continue to sit atop the Atlantic Division with a 6-7 record.
Up next
The Raptors will have the day off Saturday, a day of rest Gay plans to take full advantage of, and return to practice on Sunday ahead of their next game at home to the struggling Brooklyn Nets on Tuesday.
