Mumford & Sons' guilt over hotel room prank
The Sigh No More hitmakers have been on the road for the past five years and they regularly indulge in some rock 'n' roll high jinx to keep themselves entertained.
But one memorable evening ended in pangs of guilt for keyboardist Ben Lovett and bassist Ted Dwayne when they left a horrible mess for hotel cleaning staff to sort out.
Lovett tells British magazine Radar, "Once, Ted and I turned all of the furniture in our hotel room upside down. That was... um... pretty calculated.
"We weren't even that drunk, we just had a joint moment of freaking out. And then in Colorado, two days later, we were both staring off into the distance and we realized that we were both feeling guilty about some poor housekeeper having to go into that hotel room and put it all back."

Categories > Movies > Van Helsing > Alas She Lies
Chapter Three0 Reviews
The creature called Isis has Gabriel trapped. Anna has a little flashback at what happened before she set foot out of the Vatican.
A/N: Hey! I know, its a wonder why I didnt update for so long before right? Well I have time now at the moment, so I decided to write again:D Or I won't get enough time later:D I'd like to thank AngelGirl for reviewing! :D Thank you so much! -hug- Please review and ENJOY!
Disclaimer: I do not own anything I write here except the characters I have invented.
Summary: Anna is alive but when Gabriel doesn't come back from a mission, he is believed to be dead. She goes to the place where he was last seen to find a terrible plot behind Gabriel's disappearance.
Chapter Three
Gabriel Van Helsing was consumed. Totally in darkness that nobody would have pulled him back. He was in a nowhere and his heart was emptied with a nothing. And the creature that had entrapped the Left Hand of God and Archangel Gabriel was a creature by the name of Isis.
The creature watched with satisfaction as the knowing of Gabriel's eyes turned to silver until it turned to a dark and hollow color that looked as if someone scooped his soul out of him. Isis grinned with hundreds of tiny dark red fangs protruding from its vile dark lips.
It had been to easy, trapping the archangel. Just too easy. She wondered why God had made one of his best angels, the agent to work on this earth, weak. Isis vaporised into black smoke and landed right next to Gabriel's floating body. He looked asleep, except he looked ill and his skin was turning a bit dark and pale.
It will be soon now... Isis thought with a fanged grin, eyes slowly turningblood red asshe touched Gabriel's soft pale cheeks. Perhaps she would test her skill on him? Yes, she would do that. She cackled loudly and snapped her fingers, as dark black smoke spread over them and blackened their surroundings.
"Well that was a relief. For once, we can rest in peace," Carl said and Anna nodded. She swung her belongings on her shoulder but she grimaced at the stink she waws covered in.
"Smelling like fish?" Anna inquired and Carl grinned.
"Well I'll be right next door Carl!"
Carl nodded with a smile as Anna shut the door. She ran towards the door in front of Carl's room and sighed in relief as she saw a cosy bed and a few chairs, with a bath.
Sighing, she dumped her stuff on the bed and then locking the door of her room, she took of her trenchcoat and corset, along with her clothes and then went into the bath, letting the water flow in the bath. She could feel warmth flowing through her as she dipped her feet into the hot water. She stayed in the bathtub and pondered on her first mission.
Before heading for Budapest, she had asked of the creature Gabriel was to go after to the Cardinal and he had explained that the creature was a Herthagor, a hybrid creature of a human and ghostly beast. Anna shuddered a bit at the thought of seeing her love trapped with a creature called a 'Herthagor'. She digged deeper into her mind and tried to remember the details.
"Cardinal, I must ask before going. What creature was it that may have took Gabriel?" Anna asked, narrowing her eyes at the faint saddened expression the Cardinal's face. The Cardinal seemed to have already known something like this would be asked from Anna'slips. Carl, who stood right next to Anna as well, looked a bit worried and nervous. The Cardinal fell silent for awhile before opening his lips slowly.
"It is called a 'Herthagor', a hybrid of a human and ghostly beast. The one I had sent Gabriel after was a creature named Isis, a rather vile and dangerous creature that had been killing the people in Budapest." Anna nodded for him to continue and the Cardinal sighed silently.
"The creature seems to be quite intelligent, from our knowledge, but we did not know that whenwe had assigned Gabriel to this mission. The Herthagor was not exactly killing the people of Budapest just for food. It had captured living humans as well to do some sort of ritual. But we knew none of this. And it may have been trying to lure Gabriel in particulary, for he is the Left Hand of God."
"Do you know what its powers is?"
"Most of our files are quite unsure of the power and strength of a Herthagor, but it is guessed that the creature can stay invisible and shape shift willingly into its true beast form and to its human form. Here's a faint picture of the creature we had gotten hold of," the Cardinal explained and then handed a fuzzy photo of a small womanly figure, with long straight hair and a slim body. But the photo was too fuzzy and dark to see anything else.
"Thank you Cardinal," Anna spoke, smiling gratefully at the Cardinal and he nodded with a weak guilty looking smile.
End of Flashback
Anna sank into the clear hot water, closing her eyes before putting her face inside the water as well. She needed a plan, and she needed one fast. If the Cardinal was right, the creature was doing something horrid to Gabriel. And she couldn't bear it.
I'll find the woman in that picture. Most likely someone knows about her. And the name Isis, probably the creature would call itself that whenever it went out into the streets, she thought and sank even deeper into the warm water, her lips widening with a hopeful smile.
A/N: Like? No Like? Please review and tell me what you think! Thank you:)

Beautifully Handcrafted
Maybe it s the marriage of iron and lustrous mellow antique brass that gives The Elgin the romantic character so common to Victorian beds.
Or perhaps it is the elegant swag detailing at the head and foot of the bed and the stylishly simple straight top rails which lend it this quiet but emotive charm.
We can draw our own conclusions but there is no denying the harmony of the metal partnership, particularly in satin black option and the lovely design details and heavy cast and husk covers on the leg posts which impart a timeless air of great integrity.
And in common with all our bedsteads we insist upon only the most meticulous manufacturing processes to ensure a lifetime of unerring service.
In fact romantic classics of unmatched style and strength to inspire across the generations.
We have been producing these bedsteads for a long time, These designs are no longer available for sale with us. Antique Dealers have offered some of our products to us as Antiques and these designs are included here for reference

This week brought us a great crop of trailers, including one for the final installment of Christopher Nolan's Batman trilogy, The Dark Knight Rises, an exciting Sherlock Holmes sequel, Steven Soderbergh's upcoming horror-thriller, a 3D kids' flick from Martin Scorsese, and a new live-action Sci-Fi epic from the director of Finding Nemo and WALL-E.

The new The Dark Knight Rises trailer finally hit the web officially, so we no longer need to rapidly search Youtube for copies recorded by shaky cell phone cameras in a movie theater before they're taken down. It's an interesting trailer, mostly of footage from the first two films in the trilogy, but definitely worth checking out. Watch it in HD here.

Mauro Ranallo report from the final press conference before Garcia vs. Judah. Hear from Danny Garcia and Zab Judah before the two bitter rivals square off on Saturday April 27 9PM ET/PT only on SHOWTIME.
Hopefully Zab has a fire lit under him for this one. He is one the biggest talent wastes in fight history. He was winning the first 4-5 rounds against Floyd Mayweather until he lost focus, and his composure.
@ wcoastassassin
Totally on point with that. I think he has the talent to win this fight, but he's so flakey. I took a small stab at him at +425, he was at +450 yesterday.
hes got speed and power but no cardio….thats the story of his life, he gasses out….maybe he doesnt train hard enough? Who knows…but always same story…4 round fighter…hes gona get smashed

Hi everyone:
I'm doing a fund raiser for my movie The Infernal Room. Movies are great entertainment but expensive to make. From cast and crew, to props and costumes, to travel and food, to make up and fx, to location and equipment, to editing and scoring. It all adds up. But in the end it's all worth while. Once this movie is finished and released, it's forever!
This Could be you!
With my movie's fundraiser, not only can you get your business in the movie via either a banner or a t-shirt of the business worn by an on-screen character or your product in the movie shown prominently either by a character holding or using it or by having it play a role in the scene($1000), but you also have an option of being in the movie in one of three ways. Choose from either a non-speaking role($500), a speaking supporting role($2500) or a speaking starring/lead role($5000) that includes a producer credit!!! All of the roles include on-screen deaths. The starring/lead and supporting roles have individual death scenes! These scenes will be shot in one day in January in New York City. Here's a chance to be a star. It's also the most unique Christmas gift anyone can give, a role in a movie! But those are just some of my favorite backer rewards. You can back the movie for as little as $1. You don't get charged until AFTER Christmas and only if we reach our goal of $6000 raised. So please give a dollar($1) or five dollars($5)! It all adds up! And Spread the word!!!
The movie itself consists of reality TV stars from the shows Survivor, The Mole, and Beauty and the Geek. Their characters on screen are similar to their portrayals on their respective shows. Three couples head out for a night of grad student fun only to find themselves in the abandoned home. An Egyptian artifact calls out to one of them, and after a simple touch, strange things begin to occur. What will become of the six friends when the Devil comes out to play? Possession, Murder, Madness. "The Infernal Room" is in the style of Hitchcock does a Twilight Zone episode.
Please visit our web page:
and watch our trailer. Your support will make this movie, my passion, come alive. Thanks!
Billy from the reality show Survivor on CBS.

The Death of Environmentalism
June 16, 2010
If ever there were a time to hit the reset button on energy policy, it is today. Congress is set to adjourn without taking substantive, long-term action on either climate or energy. The extremes have so dominated mainstream thinking on energy that it is easy to forget how much reasonable liberals and conservatives can actually agree on. Arriving at a new post-partisan consensus will require liberals and conservatives, alike, to take a renewed look at key facts, which challenge some long-standing assumptions about energy.
The new report calls for increasing federal innovation investment from roughly $4 today to $25 billion annually, and using military procurement, new, disciplined deployment incentives, and public-private hubs to achieve both incremental improvements and breakthroughs in clean energy technologies. The authors point to America's long-history of bi-partisan support for innovation.
Writes David Leonhardt in today's New York Times, "the death of cap and trade doesn't have to mean the death of climate policy. The alternative revolves around much more, and much better organized, financing for clean energy research. It's an idea with a growing list of supporters, a list that even includes conservatives -- most of whom opposed cap and trade."
Mark Muro of Brookings tells Politico the proposal's four parts "are broadly popular, provide a very broad and appealing American vision of economic transformation and are certainly far more doable than a global pricing system at this point." Added Steve Hayward of American Enterprise Institute, "The entire climate and energy agenda that we've been talking about for several years now has hit a dead end, so it's time to hit the reset button."
As the Times's Leonhardt explains the new post-partisan proposal, and the growing energy innovation consensus surrounding it, "reflect[s] the political reality that raising the cost of dirty energy is unpopular, especially when the economy is so weak. Finding the money to make clean energy cheaper, even when government budgets are tight, will probably be an easier sell."
While cap and trade legislation became embattled by partisan wars over climate science and compromised to the point of inefficacy, Leonhardt reminds readers that there is a successor strategy waiting, if one only turns to the long, bipartisan history of American technological leadership.
"[H]istory shows that government-directed research can work," Leohardt writes.
"The Defense Department created the Internet, as part of a project to build a communications system safe from nuclear attack. The military helped make possible radar, microchips and modern aviation, too. The National Institutes of Health spawned the biotechnology industry. All those investments have turned into engines of job creation, even without any new tax on the technologies they replaced.
"We didn't tax typewriters to get the computer. We didn't tax telegraphs to get telephones," Breakthrough Institute's Michael Shellenberger told the Times. "When you look at the history of technological innovation, you find that state investment is everywhere."
And in that history, lies a new path forward to deliver clean cheap energy, economic productivity, and national prosperity.

If ever there were a time to hit the reset button on energy policy, it is today. Congress is set to adjourn without taking substantive, long-term action on either climate or energy. While conservatives may be celebrating the death of cap and trade, the truth is that the right's longstanding hopes for the expansion of nuclear power and oil production have also run aground, foundering on the high cost of constructing new nuclear plants and the impacts of the devastating oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico. As a result, energy policy is at a standstill, despite overwhelming public support for accelerating the move to clean, affordable energy sources and tapping fast-growing clean energy industries to create jobs and wealth in the United States.
Today, few issues in American political life are as polarized as energy policy, with both left and right entrenched in old worldviews that no longer make sense. For the better part of two decades, much of the right has speculated darkly about global warming as a United Nations-inspired conspiracy to destroy American sovereignty, all while passing off chants of "drill, baby, drill" as real energy policy. During the same period much of the left has oscillated incoherently between exhortations that avoiding the end of the world demands shared sacrifice, and contradictory assertions that today's renewable energy and efficiency technologies can eliminate fossil fuels at no significant cost. All the while, America's dependence on fossil fuels continues unabated and political gridlock deepens, preventing real progress towards a safer, cleaner, more secure energy system.
The extremes have so dominated mainstream thinking on energy that it is easy to forget how much reasonable liberals and conservatives can actually agree on. Fossil fuels have undeniably been critical to American prosperity and development, but we can gradually move toward cleaner, healthier, and safer energy sources. Indeed, throughout history, as we have become a more prosperous nation, we have steadily moved to cleaner energy sources, from wood and dung to coal to oil to natural gas, hydropower, and nuclear energy. Our goal today should be to make new clean energy sources much cheaper so they can steadily displace fossil fuels, continuing this ongoing process. If we structure this transition correctly, new energy industries could be an important driver of long-term economic growth.
Arriving at a new post-partisan consensus will require liberals and conservatives, alike, to take a renewed look at key facts, which challenge some long-standing assumptions about energy.
For liberals this means acknowledging that today's renewable energy technologies are, by and large, too expensive and difficult to scale to meet the energy needs of the nation, much less a rapidly growing global population. New mandates, carbon pricing systems such as cap and trade, and today's mess of subsidies are not going to deliver the kind of clean energy innovation required. And nuclear power, long reviled by many on the left, is far cleaner and safer than most liberals imagine, and holds enormous potential to displace low-cost but high-polluting coal power.
For conservatives this means acknowledging that fossil fuels have serious health, safety, and security consequences aside from any risks global warming might pose. The biggest obstacle facing nuclear power is not environmental policy but rather public opposition, high construction costs, and associated financial risks.8 And while many faults can be found with ethanol and synfuels investments, the bulk of historic federal investments in energy technology -- from hydro and nuclear to solar, wind, and electric vehicles -- have been an overwhelming success.
This white paper is the product of a more than yearlong dialogue between scholars from three diverse think tanks. Drawing on America's bipartisan history of successful federal investment to catalyze technology innovation by the U.S. military, universities, private corporations, and entrepreneurs, the heart of this proposal is a $25 billion per year investment channeled through a reformed energy innovation system.
This new system is built on a four-part energy framework:
(Click here for a full summary of recommendations)
To accelerate energy innovation and modernization, we propose a role for government that is both limited and direct. It is limited because it is focused, not on reorganizing our entire highly complex energy economy, but rather on specific strategies to drive down the real cost of clean energy technologies. Instead of subsidizing existing technologies hoping that as they scale up, costs will decline, or providing tax credits to indirectly incentivize research at private firms, this framework is direct because the federal government would directly drive innovation and adoption through basic research, development, and procurement in the same way it did with computers, pharmaceutical drugs, radios, microchips, and many other technologies.
Time and again, when confronted with compelling national innovation priorities, the United States has summoned the resources necessary to secure American technological leadership by investing in breakthrough science and world-class education. The United States responded vigorously to the Soviet launch of Sputnik by investing the resources necessary to ensure American innovators, entrepreneurs, and firms would lead the world in aerospace, IT, and computing technologies, igniting prosperous new industries in the process. Today, we invest $30 billion annually in pursuit of new cures to deadly diseases and new biomedical innovations that can extend the lives and welfare of Americans. We similarly devote more than $80 billion annually to military innovations that can help secure our borders. We propose a similar national commitment to energy sciences and education, which have languished without the funding deserving of a national innovation priority. At the same, this proposal is based on what we know about successful public-private partnerships to build and strengthen regional hubs of innovation, such as the one that evolved into Silicon Valley. Therefore, we propose investment in a national network of regional clusters of universities, entrepreneurs, private investors, and technology companies.
While the left wants to cut fossil fuel and nuclear subsidies and the right wants to cut renewable energy subsidies, we propose across-the-board energy subsidy reform, disciplining all incentives for technology deployment and adoption to a new framework that rewards innovation -- as measured through real declines in the cost of generating energy -- not simply producing more of the same. Today's federal investments -- whether for solar and wind or ethanol and nuclear -- are structured around scale and quantity, not innovation. The innovation system we propose builds on the successes of military procurement to purchase and prove advanced energy systems while providing competitive markets for emerging energy technologies, which can facilitate mass manufacture, demand progressive innovation, and bring down the real, unsubsidized cost of clean and secure energy alternatives.
These productive investments have the potential to raise America's economic growth over the long term and thus help reduce the budget deficit. America's $1.3 trillion budget deficit is largely a consequence of low growth and the increasing cost of structural entitlement programs, but it can be overcome by a combination of higher growth, responsible entitlement reform, and targeted spending cuts. Achieving higher growth will require continued federal investments in productive enterprises, including health, information technology, and energy. Furthermore, fear of technology failure should not paralyze strategic investments in innovation, since some amount of failure is inevitable and essential to such a disruptive and non-linear process.
To ensure that these limited, targeted new investments do not add to the federal deficit, we propose a suite of options that Congress and the President can use to finance energy innovation. These include cutting existing energy subsidies, charging new royalties for oil drilling, small surcharges on oil imports or electricity sales, and a very low carbon price. While each of these mechanisms may bother some on both the left and right, all should agree that exacerbating the national debt is unwise. Revenues must be found in order to make these productive investments, which have long-term potential to revitalize the economy.
Increasing investment in energy technology and innovation, as we advocate, remains exceedingly popular with Americans of all political stripes. Of all energy policy proposals, from carbon pricing and cap and trade to new oil and gas drilling, expanding production and lowering the price of clean, innovative energy technologies is the most popular approach, regularly receiving support from 65 to 90 percent of Americans in independent news polls, Gallup surveys, and other opinion research. This public support is consistent over time, and reflects the historical willingness of publics to pay slightly more for cleaner and safer energy sources.
In this white paper, we aim to present a practical and bipartisan approach to American energy policy. The time has come for a fresh start that can bring our nation into the future through a pragmatic drive to make clean energy cheap and abundant.

anyone know if there is a way to switch factions, like a noob i started knocking out quests on my way to 80 without a care for who they were for.
Yes, there is a way to switch, I actually went and did it myself about an hour ago, you need to kill Artruis the Heartless (http://www.wowhead.com/?npc=28659 ) in a cave, at 30% she goes immune, and the 2 frozen npc's near her will unfreeze and start killing you, just kill the one of the frenzyheart tribe, Artruis will become attackable again, just kill her, talk to the oracle npc, and there you go!
Also, once you get exalted with your respective faction, doing this will get you the achievement very easy

Mysore Pak is a delicious, absolutely melt-in-your-mouth sweetmeat.
The roasting of the gramflour and the one-string stage have to be nearly perfect to turn out the most perfect Mysore Pak. Here follows an easy version...
The recipe creates 6 squares as well as pieces at the edge.
Ingredients -
Unsalted butter - 80 gms ( including 5 gms to grease)
Gramflour / "Besan" - 75 gms
Sugar - 160 gms
Grease a 6 " glass tray, preferably square with softened butter.
Melt the butter in a wok. Pour into a tumbler. In the ghee - coated wok, roast the gramflour over low to medium flame until the raw smell turns into a significant roasted aroma and there is the slightest change of shade. Stir well so the entire mixture is roasted. If there are too many lumps, sift the gramflour into a bowl.
Now, stir the gramflour and melted butter together in the tumbler. The mixture will have the texture of Idli - Dosa batter.
Now in a non-stick, heavy-bottomed wok, tip in sugar and just enough water to immerse it in. Over high heat, allow the mixture to boil.
Once the glossy sheen gives way to an opaque froth , take a single drop between your index finger and thumb and pull the string. It must form a single 'dry' thread as you pull forth. Once this stage is reached, reduce the flame. Pour the gramflour-butter directly .
Stir well over medium flame until the mixture bubbles and thickens.
The mixture will leave the sides, turn several shades paler resembling a sauce and form large-sized bubbles. Turn off the heat and stir twice.
Pour into the greased container . It will start to firm up immediately.
After pressing the sweet to check the hardness, as soon as soon as it has almost set, ie. 75% , with a small, sharp, serrated knife, carefully slice into squares. Let it cool. Dislodge the squares.

Cape York Peninsula Land Use Strategy

Cape York Peninsula Land Use Strategy
Abrahams, H., Mulvaney, M., Glasco, D., & Bugg, A.
Office of the Co-ordinator General of Queensland
Australian Heritage Commission, March 1995
Under Criterion B1 (Places possessing uncommon, rare or endangered aspects of Australia's natural or cultural history) an analysis of rare, uncommon or restricted vegetation communities has been undertaken.
The scale of interpretation of such an analysis is clearly a major contributing factor to the result. This analysis has taken national and regional scale perspectives.
In a national context there are a number of broad scale community types that are naturally restricted or diminished and so can be considered nationally rare or uncommon. In some instances Cape York Peninsula has a good representation of these communities. Perhaps the clearest example is that of the closed forest or rainforest communities throughout Australia. These have been identified as very limited, totalling only about 20 000 square kilometres over the continent, yet forming a very rich component of the Australian flora and consequently of high conservation value. About one fifth of Australian rainforest is found on the Peninsula.
Some of the Peninsula's rainforest communities, particularly the mid-Peninsula forests, are regionally common, but this does not diminish their status as nationally rare vegetation communities. The value of undisturbed forest communities is even more significant when considered in a national context. The majority of closed forests on the Peninsula are essentially undisturbed.
Similarly heath communities are very restricted throughout Australia. An examination of the national scale mapping (AUSLIG 1990) indicates that these communities on Cape York Peninsula are among the largest in Australia. Substantial areas of heath are restricted and uncommon in the Australian context and again the Peninsula heaths are largely undisturbed.
Figure 4.1 shows the nationally significant rainforest and heath communities.
Regionally rare or uncommon vegetation communities on Cape York Peninsula were identified through comparing the total cover and number of occurrences of each vegetation community found on the Peninsula. The analysis was undertaken using the Neldner and Clarkson (1994) 1:250,000 vegetation mapping for the Peninsula. This mapping recognised 201 native vegetation units, or different vegetation classes. These classes were also amalgamated into 30 Broad Vegetation Groups (BVG). The Classification into classes and groups was on the basis of vegetation structure (e.g woodland, heath, open forest) and then the floristics (or species composition).
Separate analyses were conducted at the vegetation class and BVG levels. The scale of mapping is important in any map unit based analysis; by doing the analysis at two scales it is possible to effectively test the sensitivity of the analysis to scale issues. The detailed rule set for determining Rare and Uncommon for each scale of analysis is as follows (and is spelt out in more detail in Appendix 3).
For BVGs:
For the 201 classes:
The Neldner and Clarkson vegetation mapping has the complication that individual mapped units (or polygons determined from air photo interpretation) may not necessarily be composed entirely of one vegetation class. However, for each polygon, the relative proportion (in 10% classes) for each vegetation class present within the polygon is given. Thus total areas of vegetation communities have been calculated using the proportion of polygon area occupied by a particular vegetation community. In total Neldner and Clarkson mapped 17,444 polygons. Where rare or uncommon vegetation classes or groups are mapped (Figures 4.2 and 4.3) an indication is provided as to the proportion of a polygon covered by rare or uncommon vegetation.
In addition to the area criteria described above, consideration was given to identifying those vegetation classes that only occur in a few separate places. Restricted vegetation classes, within the CYPLUS study area, were identified as those that occurred in thirty or less polygons, while limited communities occurred in sixty or less polygons.
The tables in Appendix 3 indicate the vegetation classes on the Peninsula that are significant because they are regionally rare, uncommon, restricted or limited. In figures 4.2 and 4.3 areas shaded as having more than 30% of a polygon comprising a rare, uncommon or restricted community are those of greater significance.
The difference in the analysis between the BVG and 201 Veg class analysis indicates the importance of detailed interpretation of particular areas. An example is the Kimba Plateaux, which is common in the BVG analysis and rare in the 201 class analysis. For the purposes of this discussion the 201 class analysis is considered more closely.
In interpreting the map there are clearly some areas of particularly high significance. The mid-Peninsula rainforests, Wet Tropics, Lockerbie and Torres Straits Island areas are clearly of importance. The coastal communities along the west coast and the Princess Charlotte Bay areas and the Virilya area to the north west are also consistently of interest. The Wet Tropics is a particular case as the majority of the biogeographic region is to the south of the project area and it is more meaningful to consider the vegetation classes in this area in that context. However, as mentioned above, tropical rainforests are a rare and highly significant community on a national and international level.
As would be expected, the more uniform communities that extend across the central southern Peninsula are not identified as uncommon. What is not expected however is that areas to the south west are identified in the BVG level analysis as being uncommon. It should be borne in
mind, that the boundaries of the study area in the south will to some extent be biasing this result as the Gulf Biogeographic region will likely include areas of these vegetation communities.
Interpretation of the results needs to be undertaken using both the presented plots and the tables provided. For the purposes of this analysis rare, uncommon and restricted communities covering greater than 30% of the identified polygons at either the BVG or 201 class level are considered areas of conservation significance.
However, in determining the impact of a proposed land use or the suitability of any area for a specified land use the data sets would need to be interrogated more closely in those areas where <30% of the identified polygons are identified communities. In any of these polygons there may be the location of a rare or restricted community which is only mapped as a small proportion of the polygon.
A consideration of threatening processes and associated threatened communities has not been undertaken as part of this analysis but should be incorporated in any future planning process.

Carpooling reaches an all-time high in the Pearson Airport Area
posted: 2012-04-03 12:58:44
On March 1st, 2012, the 6,000th user registered on the Carpool Zone in the City of Mississauga and Pearson Airport Area resulting in 1,227 carpools formed.
In the last year alone, nearly 2,000 commuters have registered and formed more than 500 carpools.
"With the rising cost of fuel, it's not surprising that registration on Carpool Zone has increased significantly. Smart Commute's year round marketing campaigns, promotions and rewards are also attracting more users," said Glenn Gumulka, Executive Director of Smart Commute Mississauga and Smart Commute Pearson Airport Area. "Among Smart Commute workplaces in the City of Mississauga and Pearson Airport Area, these figures only capture a fraction of the total carpooling activity that is taking place - we know there are more carpoolers out there. As the pace of registration increases, we are confident that we will surpass 10,000 registered users in the next 18 months."
One outstanding Smart Commute workplace that has had great success with employee registration on Carpool Zone is Hatch Ltd. which has attracted more than 1,100 users and 250 carpools formed. In an effort to ease parking pressures and encourage its employees to reduce their carbon footprint and transportation costs, Hatch Ltd. introduced an employee commuting incentive program that offers $2.50 per passenger per one-way trip ride for those employees who carpool with other Hatch employees.
Carpool Zone is a free, state of the art online ride matching service that allows registrants to find carpool partners based on a customized search criteria. Smart Commute creates exclusive subgroups for its member workplaces, allowing commuters to quickly and easily create carpools with their co-workers. Since 2006, commuters registered on Carpool Zone in the City of Mississauga and Pearson Airport Area have helped save nearly 12 million kilometres of vehicle travel, more than $6.5 million in commuting costs and 2.6 million kilograms (kg) of greenhouse gas emissions (GHGs) from entering the atmosphere.
For more information on how your organization can benefit from a corporate carpooling program, please visit www.smartcommutepaa.ca.
Smart Commute Mississauga is an incorporated non-profit Transportation Management Association supported by the City of Mississauga, Metrolinx and the Region of Peel. Its membership is composed of organizations from both the Mississauga business community and the public sector.
Smart Commute is a program of Metrolinx and the municipalities in the Greater Toronto and Hamilton Area. To date, 204 employers with more than 524,000 employees have signed on to the Smart Commute program.

LINDSAY LOHAN walked the red carpet in a black gown at the White House Correspondents' Dinner at the Washington Hilton.
Lindsay may have missed her flight to Washington—allegedly because she was up all night partying—and missed the White House Correspondents' pre-party, but the "Glee" guest star, who reportedly sat at the same table as Kim Kardashian, eventually made it to the actual dinner… and she actually looked like her old self.
LiLo arrived in a black halter gown, which featured a modest plunging neckline and a flowing train.
Her accessories include an assortment of diamond bracelets and bangles, diamond stud earrings, and a simple pendant necklace.
Lindsay completed the look with loose, romantic waves, bronzed cheeks, and a striking red lip.
Lindsay really looked much better than she usually does, but her dress could have used some ironing.

Law school is a costly endeavor. For most students, it requires a "downsizing" of their lifestyles to simpler levels. Preparing for law school should include undertaking some common-sense steps such as paying off credit cards and other consumer debt, putting away some savings, and paring down living expenses. If you have existing educational loans, ask your lender(s) about deferment policies and obtain loan deferment forms before you enroll in school.
Financial assistance at UDC-DCSL comes from a variety of sources, including federal Stafford Loan funds, need-based and merit scholarships, and work-study. These sources of financial aid are discussed in detail in Chapter III of Financing Your Legal Education: A Guide to Financial Aid at the UDC David A. Clarke School of Law (.pdf).
Financial aid packaging puts great emphasis on loans because by "recycling" money the greatest number of students can be helped. If you rely only on the resources available through UDC-DCSL's Office of Financial Aid, you can plan on incurring educational debts.
The UDC-DCSL Office of Financial aid is open weekdays from 9:00 AM - 5:30 PM. Please do not hesitate to contact me with your questions or concerns about financial aid.

You are correct, I am using the term 'state-full' incorrectly here. What I wanted to get across was that ipfw did have a memory of previous connections and could recognise a packet as belonging to an already established / permitted connection.
Having said that 'state-full' does have a technical meaning in regards to firewalls an missusing it isn't going to help anybody.
Thanks again for the correction.

This still isn't quite right. Using your rules, ipfw doesn't have any memory at all--it's using the TCP flags to determine whether the connection is established or not.
A stateful ipfw ruleset will always contain at least one rule with the 'check-state' action and at least one rule with the 'keep-state' option. ipfw's "memory" is in the form of dynamic rules.

Movie News
A Movie A Day: Quint catches VON RYAN'S EXPRESS (1965)
I once told you Ryan, if only one gets out, it's a victory.
Ahoy, squirts! Quint here with today's installment of A Movie A Day.
[For those now joining us, A Movie A Day is my attempt at filling in gaps in my film knowledge. My DVD collection is thousands strong, many of them films I haven't seen yet, but picked up as I scoured used DVD stores. Each day I'll pull a previously unseen film from my collection and discuss it here. Each movie will have some sort of connection to the one before it, be it cast or crew member.]
Okay. I still didn't get much sleep, but I'm bound and determined to make this a full AMAD installment.
We follow over writer Wendell Mayes from yesterday's THE SPIRIT OF ST. LOUIS… Mayes had a fascinating career. He not only wrote today's VON RYAN'S EXPRESS, but also had a hand in previous AMAD In Harm's Way as well as the great and underseen Gregory Peck Western Thriller STALKING MOON, cheesy-but-still-goddamn-awesome THE POSEIDON ADVENTURE and DEATH WISH.
This film hit in a weird time. This was two years before THE DIRTY DOZEN and KELLY'S HEROES sort of put a big old period on this type of film, but came after other great men-on-a-mission WW2 flicks like GUNS OF NAVARONE and to a certain extent THE GREAT ESCAPE.
I'm afraid it kind of got lost amongst those giants, at least in popular knowledge.
I don't know if I'd say VON RYAN'S EXPRESS is as good as any of those movies, but it is an immensely enjoyable film and worth a viewing if you haven't seen it.
Basically you got Frank Sinatra as an American pilot that is shot down in Italy during WW2. Fascists at this point, the Italians are on sketchy ground with the Nazis, the alliance stretched thin.
So while Sinatra is a POW, he's not in German hands. Rather he is put in an Italian POW camp filled with mostly British soldiers where he's given the nickname Von Ryan for working closely with the Italians, knowing that Italy's surrender is close. He works to keep as many of the POWs alive, going so far as to betray an escape plan in order to barter for medicine and a healthier living area.
When the POW camp is abandoned, Ryan leads the POWs out, but they quickly fall into German hands and are gathered together on a prisoner train.
The bulk of the movie is set on the train and our guys taking it and using it to flee to Switzerland.
As with all movies of this type, the film rests upon how well drawn the characters are and one of this film's many strengths are the character types. Sinatra is… Sinatra. Suave, cool, badass, but he's paired with a British soldier played by the great Trevor Howard and boy does Howard play him grouchy. I love it. This poor bastard has been leading these captives for months, watching his people get sick and die all the while carefully planning a tunnel-digging to freedom only to have this bloody American come in and in a day pull rank and ruin all his planning.
It's a great dichotomy. Howard doesn't trust Sinatra and is constantly second guessing him, but is too steeped in army protocol to directly contradict him. Sinatra has to gain Howard's respect.
The flick plays smart, taking twists at unexpected times. We see well-laid plans go awry when you least expect them to and have to watch our characters scramble to avoid catastrophe, thinking on their feet. It's a pretty common staple now, but I'm used to movies of this period setting up what seems like minor action set pieces, taking time to go over each detail so we know what we're seeing it when it happens. Usually if something goes wrong, it's at the end of these sequences, but here they really threw me for a loop a couple of times.
Since I neglected the amazing work of Franz Waxman in yesterday's THE SPIRIT OF ST. LOUIS, I will not make the same mistake today. Jerry Goldsmith composed a fantastic score here… a score that's a little atypical. The action is pounding, but there are some bizarre strings that pop up during the POW camp scene. It's not exactly a comedy score, but it's something unique that really benefits these moments, keeping it from being depressing. I guess what I'm trying to say is the score is adventurous and really sells the adventure aspect of the flick.
Mark Robson directed the film, a man who cut his teeth with Val Lewton on such flicks as BEDLAM and THE 7TH VICTIM. We'll be getting to those and a few more Robson films in the coming months, but I will say that while the direction isn't exactly world-changing in VON RYAN'S EXPRESS, he does a very nice job setting the time and place. The action scenes are well staged, too. The final push for the border gets crazy big… hundreds of soldiers, a ticking clock, German planes versus good guys with machine guns… Good stuff.
Like many films of this era, I noticed the ending on this one is abrupt as all hell. They didn't believe in prolonged finales. We spend 2 hours getting to know a myriad of characters, but when we don't need the lead anymore the movie's just over. I kind of like it this way… My imagination fills in the gaps. Where did the rest of the group go? What did Howard do from this point on? I like to think he knocked up a few Swiss milkmaids and then went back out to bitch-slap some Nazi fools before the war ended. Maybe he could even crossed over into other AMADs… maybe he stole Julie Andrews away from Christopher Plummer and taught the Von Trapp kids some good old pub songs? Hey, it's the same time period. Von Trapp's Express anyone?
Final Thoughts: Once our guys get on that Nazi-controlled train the movie had me completely. I was engaged at every stop-off, at every run-in with soldiers, the Gestapo (one of my favorite scenes in the movie, actually, when the Gestapo follows Sinatra dressed in a Nazi uniform back onto the train and you think he's fucked… but then you find out exactly what the Gestapo agent wanted) and prisoners on the train, including the too-hot-for-words Raffaella Carra who plays an Italian mistress of a high ranking Nazi. Her character actually belongs in noir more than in this movie, but I loved that twist… she's dark, conniving, beautiful and quite cold. Give it a view, definitely.
Before I hit the schedule for next week, Harry pointed out that you can (legally) watch this entire movie in 480p on Hulu. I've embedded below:
The schedule for the next 7 days is:
Sunday, August 3rd: CAN-CAN (1960)
Monday, August 4th: DESPERATE CHARACTERS (1971)
Tuesday, August 5th: THE POSSESSION OF JOEL DELANEY (1972)
Wednesday, August 6th: QUACKSER FORTUNE HAS A COUSIN IN THE BRONX (1970)
Thursday, August 7th: START THE REVOLUTION WITHOUT ME (1970)
Friday, August 8th: Hell Is A City (1960)
Saturday, August 9th: THE PIED PIPER (1972)
Tomorrow we follow Sinatra to a 1960 musical called CAN-CAN co-starring Shirley MacClaine, who both featured in previous AMAD Some Came Running (1958).
This installment marks the 2 month anniversary of the column. I thought I was going hit a big bump with SPIRIT OF ST. LOUIS… the DVD was dirty and almost didn't play on my laptop's picky DVD player, but praise be to Jeebus that we've hit 2 months without much interruption! Here's to many more months!

Gotta Love Those Old Lines
by TroutMaskReplicant
"I once told you Ryan, if only one gets out, it's a victory" I need to learn to write like that. Also, I was just pondering today the use of epilogues in films. Some of those old films have jarring climactic endings that cut straight to the credits. I'm thinking of Vertigo for instance, but even 80's films like The Fly and Robocop have them. Interesting.

Heh, I love Hulu
by Lukecash
Damn fine service. sure you see a few commercials. But they are a few seconds and boom, you are back to the movie.<pP Sinatra was pretty underrated for an actor. Sadly, he was part of the "old school" acting groupo...the type that a young Brando just buried with his more natural acting.

Von Ryans' Express was 5 years BEFORE Kelly's Heroes.
by No Respectable Gentleman
And I'd advance an argument that this is the first MODERN action film. Think about it. The POW camp is gritty and grotty like nothing in THE GREAT ESCAPE. The Germans speak subtitled German and the Italians speak subtitled Italian. There's brutal mid-60s "profanities" and even nudity (of a sort). The hero shoots a woman in the back. The hero gets killed at the end. The music is totally masculine (apart from that early burlesque stuff).

Different ending in the book
by evilned1
I found the book in the library a long time ago. As usual, they changed the ending in the movie and did so radically. In the book, the train is stopped in Switzerland and Col, Ryan lived. He gets off and is walking back when he spots someone painting a big sign on the side of one of the box cars. It read "Von Ryan's Express" Ryan looked at it, and in an obvious realization that he and the others were safe now, collapsed into hysterical laughter. When I read that after seeing the movie, I decided the makers had screwed up. This ending would have worked better. Just my opinion.

thanks for the spoiler warning.
 I just love the fact that you have all these dudes floating around who sat out the war drinking martinis and go on to make a shitload of 'look how tough i am' movies. How did people give them credibity. Fucking John wanye and the like, convincing dudes to join the army just in time for vietnam. pussies. not too mention real tough guys who actually fought and shit go on to play 'nice guy roles' like jimmy stewart. Course then there are dudes lee marvin who kicked ass in the movies and out.

by Grammaton Cleric Binks
Sinatra movie that ever impressed me. I mean it's the only one I've seen in it's entirety as others I've caught bits and pieces then turned it off. Movies like this were made when men were men, not boys. Movies like this are hard to make today because we see boys in the lead roles. Saving Private Ryan is a good example of putting men in this type of role.

on this project and then get your sleep when you need it. not to sound like your mother, but you are kind of nuts to force yourself to watch a movie every day...just watch two in a day when you aren't to tired...you can't be objective if you are in a sleep deprived state anyhow.

Re: abrupt endings.
by rbatty024
I have always had a suspicion that the reason older films have abrupt endings is because they viewed themselves as more similar to short stories than novels. Ever since Poe short stories have traditionally done without a denouement. A short and sweet ending is sometimes an improvement and some recent films should take note.
Aug. 3, 2008, 8:07 a.m. CST
Good movie.

And the isolated Jerry Goldsmith score on the DVD is priceless. 60's/70's Goldsmith was his prime period.

Keep it up Quint!
by Rando Calrisian
Great job Quint. Someone said it earlier, but this will make a great book if you can make it through a whole year. I've been impressed with the range of films you've been selecting. You've even had me going into my own collection and watching the titles I just never put in the DVD player. It's amazing how many there are. Unfortunately, they are rarely the ones you are watching, but there have been a few. BTW Netflix is also offering a bunch of that can be watched instantly now. You can actually invite people from all over the world to watch a movie at the same time as you - very cool.

 Keep up the great work!

I think i saw it on parkinson, anyway a story that michael caine told of wayne was that when he first came to hollywood he was waiting in the lobby of a famous hotel for a meeting with someone. While waiting wayne walked past, stopped, looked at him and said 'are you that actor what's in that movie alfie?' caine said 'yes'. then wayne said (if you wan't to do well in movies) "talk low, talk slow, and don't say too much"

Men on a Mission
by William Munny
OK - some parts are goofy. And Sinatra does a little bit of his Rat Pack schitck - listen to how he talks when they're typing up the fake German orders. It's like he's performing at the Sands in Vegas. But as an adventure story - this is great stuff. I saw VRE when I was 10 - in 1965 - and I've probably seen it 10 times since that first formative viewing. Sinatra wears a very nice looking Dubow A2 pilot's jacket at the beginning - and you don't see it again until the very end of the movie. Also, anyone notice the watch that Sinatra wears? The one that the Gestapo agent is coveting? I wonder what make/model of watch that is? Ever wonder why most adventure movies feature a watch of some type on the protagonist? It's a very common staple of adventure-type stories. Must be part of the writer's code. BTW, Sinatra suggested the final ending twist that we all see. The director and producers wanted something more positive. Can't imagine that movie any different now. It just wouldn't have worked.

You can't take out a component of The Magnificent Seven, even if you feel it's the weakest. But you're right about Peck. I'm so used to thinking Atticus Finch that I forgot all the hard roles he did. Don't get between him and a whale. Plus, he took on Satan and almsot won. Furthermore Atticus can shoot better than Mark Walberg's Shooter. I haven't seen enough Mitchum, but I do know him and Peck did Cape Fear, and he was hardcore, so I'll take your word for it.

Hogan's Heroes played straight?
by Napoleon Park
Both Goldsmith's "not quite comedy" poppy strings and Sinatra's leather jacket are reminding me of a certain infamous '60s sit-com.
A month and a half after this review appeared the film is airing on AMC so I just dropped in to check out Quint's review. I have some chores to run so it's nice to know I can catch it later on Hulu.

Although I am fully aware that the Nyan Cat meme is about as old as Betty White in internet years, this ridiculous little two-week project was still a lot of fun, and was mainly for the purpose of determining how well I could pull off a wide range of musical styles in Logic. In a perfect world, this project would have been twice as long, but some genres are deceptively tough to reproduce with only a laptop at my disposal. In loving memory of Nyan Cat.
WARNING: There is a brief section about a minute in that makes use of a strobe effect. If you know you suffer from epilepsy, you may want to steer clear.

Was the last part themed after Destroy All Humans? That game was the shit. Literally, that anal probe.
That's the theme from The Day the Earth Stood Still (1951). It's a fantastic score by Bernard Herrmann.
