Every so often you may have seen me link to blog posts that I've written for Waku Waku +NYC, which is a new Japanese Pop Culture Festival in Brooklyn. Waku Waku +NYC is set for next weekend, August 29th to 30th, and while some of my readers are complete con veterans at this point and others might not have other been to anything of the sort, I encourage everyone to go because it's going to be a different experience from the typical anime con.
The main things that probably separate Waku Waku +NYC from similar shows is that, in addition to having cool anime guests—like Mega Man and Mighty No. 9's Keiji Inafune and veteran anime screenwriter Takao Koyama, who worked on such shows as Saint Seiya, Time Bokan Series, Dragon Ball Z, Slayers, and The Brave Express Might Gaine, —there's also going to be a huge emphasis on mixing things up. Rather than keeping each all of the various elements of Japanese pop culture in their respective bubbles, Lolita fashion will be encouraged to intermingle with Japanese hip hop and EDM, for example. It's also going to feature a cool area full of delicious eats called "Savory Square," which will be serving authentic Japanese food from some of the most notable restaurants in both Japan and NYC. Probably the main attraction is Dotonbori Kukuru, which will be flying in from Osaka to serve the classic Osakan snack, takoyaki.
Waku Waku +NYC will be spread across multiple locations in Greenpoint, Brooklyn. These are the Brooklyn Expo Center, Wythe Hotel, Verboten, Transmitter Park, and Brooklyn Bowl. They're all within walking distance of each other, but a shuttle will also be available.
I hope you can make it to Waku Waku +NYC. If you come, you might be able to spot me. I'll be running around the venues conducting interviews.
I was recently on PatzPrime's Space Opera Satellite podcast to recap and review the highlights of Otakon from the mecha fan's perspective. Joining us were also Tom Aznable, Hazukari, and Ashe Blitzen.
Ogiue Maniax is returning to Otakon in Baltimore this year to cover the biggest anime convention on the east coast and to have some fun. My schedule isn't set it stone, so there's probably not much point in saying where I maybe might sort of be, but there's one place you'll definitely be able to find me:
July 26
10:15-11:15am, Panel 3
Some manga are praised for how gorgeous they look, while others are beloved in spite of their drawings, but what about those manga that are made BETTER by the awfulness of their artwork? Join Carl from the Ogiue Maniax blog and Ed Chavez as we look at some of the best and most entertaining ugly manga out there, and see why there's no irony when we say that these manga are great.
Six years ago, I attended my very first AnimeNext and had a hell of an experience. Six years later I returned to the Somerset, NJ convention, only to find out that it's the very last AnimeNext before it moves to Atlantic City in 2016. I feel glad that I could see it one last time before the big move!
AnimeNext in 2009 was well-populated, but it's amazing how much it's grown since then. Last time I went, I stayed at the Somerset Bridgewater Hotel in order to be close to the convention. This time around, it was part of the convention. As expressed to me by both my friends with whom I traveled and by AnimeNext staff, the convention had simply outgrown its space, necessitating the move to a more spacious location. Thankfully, aside from a terribly hot and humid first day, the weather was surprisingly manageable, which made the outdoor space between the three locations (Bridgewater, Double Tree, Garden State Exhibit Center) a nice reprieve between events.
This year I helped out Waku Waku +NYC, an upcoming New York anime con this August 29-30, which made it so that I couldn't attend quite as many panels and events as I normally would. However, the ones I did see where all quite interesting. The Penguindrum panel by the Reverse Thieves showed how the train imagery of the series incorporated both classic Japanese children's literature and traumatic real world events. Land of Obscusion's "Greatest Anime We Never Got" told fans to find Sexy Commando, which I'm all for. The FLOW concert was fantastic, and I found myself singing along to the first Eureka Seven opening, even though I swore I didn't know the lyrics. I even got them to autograph my anime DVD box set, alongside the Satou Dai signature I obtained back in 2009, not long after I attended AnimeNext.
Studio Trigger
Speaking of autographs, the highlight of the convention had to be Studio Trigger, creators of Inferno Cop, Ninja Slayer, and Kill la Kill. I had heard how fantastic they were as guests last year, and so I had to speak with them. In addition to getting their autographs (Koyama Shigeto's on Eureka Seven with a little Nirvash Spec3 sketch), most of the rest of the staff's on Panty & Stocking with Garterbelt, I also joined in on their press conference and attended their 2-hour panel on Saturday evening. One thing that was clear from the press conference and the autograph session was that the people at trigger loved Panty & Stocking and sincerely wish they could make more.
The press conference itself was brief but amazing. At one point, Koyama introduced himself in Japanese as the designer on Inferno Cop, to which the translator "assisted" him by interpreting his line as "designer on Big Hero 6" (which is true). They explained how Inferno Cop actually came out of a commission by Google of all things, which is made all the more surprising by how much money Google is known to have and how little money and effort was placed into Inferno Cop. This isn't a knock at Trigger, as they themselves mentioned that they set a rule that they could only spend two hours a week on Inferno Cop, which, according to Koyama again is a very original series about a hero of justice with a flaming skull that is 100% original in every original way, really and truly. They also mentioned how their original idea was the story of an ordinary guy in a superhero academy, which they would've called Superson, except that it was a "crappy anime," in their words.
As a final question at the press conference, I asked Studio Trigger about one of their more obscure works, Turning Girls, or more specifically how it came to be. The story of its creation turns out to be one of the greatest tales ever brought forth by humankind.
Turning Girls, which is named so because it's about girls who are about to turn 30 and have hit a transitional point in their lives, is created and produced by the non-animator female staff of Studo Trigger. Essentially, they wanted to see how people with no experience in animation would make an anime. Though the series did not attract much of an audience abroad, the sponsor who asked them to do it in the first place keeps asking for more, against their expectations. During the Q&A session at their panel, I casually commented that they should produce more Turning Girls as well, to which they responded with "NO" in English. Also, it's important to note that all of the girls are apparently based on the staff members themselves, and that one of them indeed carries shades of Kaerun, the highly abrasive aspiring idol from Turning Girls.
If there's one major highlight of the entirety of AnimeNext, however, it has to be the return of Inferno Cop. This wasn't just any episode of Inferno Cop, though. It was, in fact, an Inferno Cop x Little Witch Academia crossover. Sucy Manbavaran made an appearance in the episode while drawn (and voiced!) in the signature Inferno Cop style. While they showed a number of animated shorts created by the staff, this had to take the cake.
Thanks to Ani-Gamers and All Fiction for asking good questions at the press conference, and to Ani-Gamers in particular for providing the audio.
My Panels
I ran two panels at AnimeNext alongside my friend Alain from the Reverse Thieves. These were "Precure Party" and "Giant Robot Romance: Boy Meets Girl Meets Mecha." The first covered the history of the immensely successful Precure franchise, which we might rename if we ever bring it back to make sure that people know that Precure is a mahou shoujo series. The second was about giant robot anime that focused heavily on romance and romantic relationships, taking us through a strange path from Toushou Daimos all the way to today.
If you attended either panel, thank you. The turn-out was somewhat small though I suspect that the inconvenience of getting to the Somerset Bridgewater where the panels were both held played a role. I definitely enjoyed running the panels, including the extra time we had to show fun clips for the audience at the end of the robot panel. I feel glad to be able to talk about two of my great loves, magical girls and giant robots, all in the same weekend.
Aside from the location issues, which AnimeNext has been well aware of for years now, my only real complaint was that often the staff and volunteers weren't much help. This isn't painting all of the volunteers with the same brush, but on multiple occasions I had asked questions (best way to get to a location, where to line up for FLOW autographs), only to receive the response of "I don't know." Sometimes it was "I don't know, let me check," only for the volunteer to disappear into the aether never to return. Of course, a volunteer is a non-paid position, and I'm sure many of them were new, but after the 5th time it started to grate on my nerves. We all have to start somewhere, though!
As my friends last year came back from AnimeNext, all I heard about was the gloriousness of the hot dogs at Destination Dogs. Seeing as AnimeNext was leaving the area after this year, it was a must-try place for me. I ordered the Boston (beef frank, baked beans, cole slaw), the Swede-Dreams (bratwurst, mashed potatoes, gravy), and the Charles Dog Gaulle (duck sausage, duck confit, foie gras). It's tough for me to decide which one I like more, the Swedish dog or the French one, but the redundant duck action and the delicious yet controversial foie gras (which I had for the first time!) makes the latter feel more special. Will there be an adequate replacement for Destination Dogs in Atlantic City, or will we be doomed to always pine after it?
I usually leave cosplay for last in these con reports just so I can segue into a large cosplay image dump, but this time around I think it's important. For one thing, this is literally the first time I've seen Precure cosplay on the East Coast! For a series that is over 11 years old and outperforms things like Sailor Moon, it is a shock that more people don't know Precure. That's why we threw the panel.
Other big trends were Kill la Kill, due in no small part to the presence of Studio Trigger, and Love Live! As a fan of the Love Lives, it was a pleasant surprise to see so many μ's copsplayers around. Quite intelligently, many of them wore summer-centric costumes to fight the heat. The most popular by far was Kotori, followed by Nico. Sadly there was only one Hanayo cosplayer I could find, but I'm grateful that she had the wisdom and unbeatable sense of taste to pick the best one.
So, see you in Atlantic City?
How do you make a convention or event feel big and small at the same time? There's a combination of intent and circumstances at work, including how it looks, to how easily people can move around, to how interactive both fans and guests are. Some things are simply out of a convention's control, and even the idea of "massive yet humble" can be a double-edged sword. For better or worse, this is what Special Edition NYC felt like. Set at a warehouse (or something like that) that gave the event an industrial feel that harkened back to the days of comics as less of a mainstream presence, yet still on some level undeniably a different world compared to those times.
Special Edition NYC is an event run by Reed Pop, the people behind the massive New York Comic Con. According to official material, the point of Special Edition is to focus on the comics themselves, rather than the movies, the TV shows, and all of the media and publicity that has come from the comics. Away from the massive signage labeling entities as "DC, Marvel, or other," (though at this point do they really need it give the iconic nature of their characters), it was interesting to be in an environment where artists didn't really have to associate themselves too much with one company or identity. After all, many artists or writers do both independent and company work at one point or another, and this allows attendees and creators to be about the people themselves. It's a nice feeling.
Because I was away in Europe for so long, and because I primarily devote my increasingly scarce free time to manga and anime, I have felt something of a disconnect with American comics. While I can't ever totally remedy it, I did approach Special Edition both with a desire to learn more and perhaps break some of my lingering preconceptions about American comics while still aware of the fact that superheroes are less an actual dominant force in American comics and more just woven into the fabric of American culture that it's what people often mentally default to. To that effect, I made two purchases. Battle Bug by Joven Tolentino, Aleksis Shi, Sekou Noel, and Dante Crayon from Hijack Press is a loving send-up of the localization of Kamen Rider Black into Masked Rider. Emily and the Strangers: Breaking the Record by Rob Reger, Mariah Huehner, and Cat Farris from Dark Horse Comics is the sequel to Emily the Strange, and about trying to start a new band with an occult guitar. It has has a cute, vibrant style I really enjoy. I also attended the Image Comics panel run by David Brothers, and I find it amazing that his genuine passion for comics motivates people to find out more. It's the kind of marketing I want to see more of.
There are two criticisms I have for Special Edition NYC, one more from what friends and other fellow attendees informed me, and one more personal. First, many people went to Special Edition just for the chance to purchase a ticket to this year's New York Comic Con, and had to line up for hours and hours. While this is on some level inevitable, I heard that the people running the line sold tickets at an awfully slow rate, exacerbating the situation. Second, the ventilation at the venue was significantly less than ideal. Towards the back of the place, I could actually feel myself getting light-headed. At first, I thought it was due to a lack of sleep or perhaps an illness coming on, but as soon as I stepped outside it went away. I really hope they fix that problem, if only because it prevents people from being able to discover more.
I'd definitely like to come back next year, and it'll be interesting to see if it grows further. I've heard that last year the event was sparsely attended, but this year there was a clear and obvious population increase. The spirit to focus on the comics themselves is quite welcome in a world where comics are becoming in a way more about movies than actual sequential art.
If you liked this post, consider becoming a sponsor of Ogiue Maniax through Patreon. You can get rewards for higher pledges, including a chance to request topics for the blog.
Also, if you've been looking for an event to fill the hole left by the absence of New York Anime Festival, check out Waku Waku +NYC.
After a five year hiatus due mostly to not be in the United States, I am making my triumphant return to AnimeNext in Somerset, NJ from June 12-14. I also have two panels I'll be running alongside the Reverse Thieves' Alain.
Precure Party
Friday 2:15pm -3:15pm BW Panel 6
We'll be talking about the crazy enormous Precure franchise that's now 11 years old and even more popular than Sailor Moon ever was in Japan. Whether you've never heard of Precure or you're a die-hard fan, we think you'll have a great time seeing magical girls punch monsters in the face.
Giant Robot Romance: Boy Meets Girl Meets Mecha
Sunday 11:15-12:15pm BW Panel 6
Love triangles and star-crossed lovers are a common trope of giant robot anime, but this panel focuses on the series where romance is of central importance to the story. See how love has evolved over time in the world of mecha. We'll be featuring shows such as Macross, Aquarion, and more!
Also, I'll definitely be at this panel if you want to chat in person
Kill la Kill, Inferno Cop, and [Redacted] with Studio TRIGGER
Saturday 9pm-11pm Panel 1
See you there! I hope we can all sing the Inferno Cop theme together. Also, if you're cosplaying Fight Club Mako, I'll give you a high-five.
New York City Anime/Japanese Pop Culture Festival Waku Waku +NYC recently announced the appearance of Inafune Keiji as a special guest, known for his work on Mega Man and Mighty No. 9, and I got the opportunity to write a piece on Inafune.
A lot of people probably know his story already, and if you've followed Ogiue Maniax over the years, you'll know that I'm a huge fan of Mega Man and Inafune, whether it's analyzing the sprites in terms of their usage of black pixels, creating my own Robot Masters, or creating a guide on how to use Mega Man in Super Smash Bros. I pledged to the Mighty No. 9 Kickstarter almost as soon as I could.
I know it's not the first time he's been to the US, but if you're on the east coast especially, I think it's worth it to come meet Inafune in person.
A lot of things have happened over the past month at (or around) Ogiue Maniax. Observant folks might have noticed that I've started linking to other posts on this blog. That's because I've started contributing to the social media for an upcoming convention in New York City, Waku Waku +NYC, and this includes writing blog posts for them. I hope you enjoy the extra material, as while they're not quite the same as what I'd normally write for Ogiue Maniax, they're still intended to be fun, informative, and promote discussion.
However, if you look at the actual Patreon page, I don't include those extra blog posts in my creations, as I believe it's not quite fair to bolster my numbers like that when it's all content supported by another organization not explicitly for Ogiue Maniax. Readers, do you agree, or would you rather see everything I make go on there?
This month's special sponsors are:
Ko Ransom
Johnny Trovato
May was actually the first month where I wrote two sponsored posts:
We Don't Need No Stinkin' Holograms (At Least Not All the Time): Voca Nico Night
An Acquired Taste that Gets Better with Time: Mysterious Joker
I definitely enjoyed writing them, and they got me to look more into topics I've had only passing familiarity with, and if you like what you see, why not consider becoming a sponsor? At $30 a month you can request topics as well.
I'm also still putting consideration into a new sponsor level, which is to have Skype conversations with me every week, and a milestone, which will involve me writing a negative review of Genshiken just for fun. The goal would not be to exaggerate, but to fairly state the flaws of my favorite series. What do you think? Would that be fun?
I've written a blog post on Sailor Moon as my introduction to Japanese food over at the Waku Waku +NYC official blog. If you're interested in me waxing nostalgic and rambling the way you expect out of Ogiue Maniax, take a look.
Sailor Moon Was My Gateway into Japanese Food
I'll be a regular contributor to the Waku Waku +NYC blog from now on, so look forward to more posts from there in the future. As always, I will continue to devote myself to Ogiue Maniax as well.
If you're curious, Waku Waku +NYC is an upcoming Japanese popular culture festival from August 29-30 in Brooklyn, NY. Unlike a lot of anime cons and Japanese events, this one looks to more thoroughly integrate food with Japanese anime, games, fashion, etc. If you're even half as interested in eating and watching anime as I am, it might be worth your while.

While we may not be able to singlehandedly transform the death industry in our country, each one of us can do something in our lives and our own communities to make a difference. We just have to be creative and strongly motivated to implement change.

How do we go about engaging in these very important conversations when we meet resistance from those we most need to listen and talk with us? Here are some suggestions for "talking the talk" and breaking through that resistance.
Although I knew that meeting Ann again was significant in some sort of cosmic sense, I was unaware of how deeply she would again touch me and forever leave her mark on me and on my work.
As older adults may need to address the issues of their death, middle-aged children struggling with their own awareness of mortality may be deeply threatened by their parents' death and hence avoid such discussion.
These situations, unfortunately, engender arguments and fights at the very time the family should be there to support and comfort each other and their dying parent.

Campbellsville University
Campbellsville University's School of Theology took 36 students, faculty, family, friends or CU alumni to Israel and Jordan on a Holy Land tour.
The tour gave travelers an opportunity to experience "the fifth gospel" on March 1-11.
Their tour began in Jordan, where travelers were able to see the famous biblical sites from the Old and New Testament, including the tomb of Moses, the Dead Sea and the site where John the Baptist was beheaded. The rest of the trip was spent in Israel, where travelers got to experience other famous biblical sites like the Sea of Galilee, the Garden of Gethsemane where Jesus prayed, the tomb where he was buried and some of the known paths he walked.
Dr. Scott Wigginton, professor of pastoral ministries and counseling, organized the trip. He was accompanied by Dr. John Hurtgen, dean of the School of Theology; Dr. Shane Garrison, assistant professor of educational ministries; Dr. Ted Taylor, director of the Big Maroon Club and former professor in the School of Theology, and Ed Pavy, director of campus ministries. They, along with Brad Lauer, discipleship pastor at Campbellsville Baptist Church, led devotionals at some of the major sites and stops.
Others travelers on the trip from Campbellsville were Matthew Feather, Sheri Taylor, Pam Hurtgen, Peter Hurtgen, Steve Arnold and David Wray of Campbellsville.
After visiting Jordan, they crossed into Israel through the Bethany River, where Jesus is said to have been baptized by John the Baptist. Here, seven travelers were also baptized in the same spot. Taylor helped Garrison baptize his father, Danny.
"I was there with my biological father, my spiritual father and in the presence of my Holy Father," Garrison said.
The two also baptized Marissa Rehmet and Dalton and Shelby Hicks. Other baptisms included Tommy Ramey, Brad Lowe and Aron Neal.
At the site of the tomb in Jerusalem where Jesus is said to have been buried, CU Baptist Campus Ministry president Noah Blackburn and president-elect Joey Bomia led their peers, professors and fellow travelers in a worship service and communion.
When they returned to Campbellsville, several travelers spoke of their favorite experiences on Wednesday, March 26, at CU's weekly chapel service.
Aron Neal said one of his most challenging but rewarding moments was hiking up a mountain in Masada, Israel.
"It was hard getting up there, but that's how life is sometimes. Sometimes it's hard, but at the end it's worth it when you're standing in the presence of God," Neal said.
Another student, Mary Kate Young, said her most memorable moments came from one of the last days of the trip, when she was able to perform an impromptu hymn for her fellow travelers at the site where Peter is believed to have preached at Pentecost.
"I sang 'How Great Thou Art,' and was able to worship the same God in Israel that I do here in Campbellsville. As a music student, it was a surreal experience that I'll never forget," Young said.
This is the third trip the School of Theology has taken, and the second one to Israel. In past trips, they traveled to Greece and Turkey to follow the path of Paul.
In 2016, they are planning a trip to Italy and Germany for a look at several historical churches and sites relating to the Protestant Reformation.

Without an instructor's outside opinion, golfers would never know about the hitch in their swing or the thousands of centipedes writhing on their backs. See things differently with this Groupon.
Choose Between Two Options
- $25 for one 45-minute golf lesson (a $65 value)
- $69 for three 45-minute golf lessons (a $195 value)
Each lesson takes place on the range at Lake Orlando Golf Club and includes one large bucket of range balls.
Dan Spiegel Golf Academy
Regardless of whether or not golfers agree with his teaching philosophies, few could argue that Dan Spiegel isn't a wellspring of information. Most instructors keep their communications safely within the tee-to-green framework, but Dan prefers to branch out: he uses his academy's website not only as a place to list golf pointers and tips, but also as a place to discuss an ecclectic mix of topics, from his views on modern media to his take on the sports news of the day.
Dan's teaching methods are as wide-ranging as his interests. Typically, he uses whatever means his student deems most comfortable, whether that means encouraging them to play by feel or react to a more scientific breakdown of mechanics. Regardless of the approach, the overarching theme of his lessons—which occur both on the range and out on the course at Lake Orlando Golf Club—is to turn the players' weaknesses into strengths.
"Dan was an excellent instructor, he met you at the level in which you were capable and allowed you to gain exceptional skills."
"Great value! Dan is friendly and very knowledgeable about the game."
"Awesome assistance with my golf game. His instruction has helped my game immensely even after one lesson."

Journolist: A Conspiracy, or Just a Clown Show?
On the main page today, John Guardiano is justifiably appalled by what he's seen from Journolist, the now-defunct off-the-record listserv for liberal journalists. Particularly disturbing is Spencer Ackerman saying it's a good idea to hurl bad-faith accusations of racism. This tells us what was already obvious: Spencer Ackerman shouldn't be taken seriously. This is hardly a secret: We're talking about a guy who was fired from The New Republic after starting a blog called "Too Hot for TNR" to denounce his employer. He then took a flamethrower to all his bridges by airing gripes about all his coworkers. The guy is insane -- and, occassionally, not intellectually honest. (He's also an energetic reporter who does good work covering national security, but you have to learn to ignore his utterly unserious opinions whenever reading his work.)
Likewise, Chris Hayes's suggestion that no one should cover the Jeremiah Wright controversy is no surprise. Chris Hayes is a dyed-in-the-wool far-left ideologue. I imagine that Hayes disagrees very little with much of what Jeremiah Wright says about how awful America is. Indeed, while I wasn't there, I did hear stories that other reporters were bemused to see Hayes applauding Wright's National Press Club speech, in which Wright doubled down on all his views.
Lots of things that we've seen from Journolist reflect poorly on the people who wrote them. But in almost every case, we already knew that these people were buffoons. Leaks from Journolist are useful primarily in reminding us how utterly ridiculous these people are.
What they don't tell us, though, is that Journolist was a media conspiracy to shape coverage based on what the craziest members of the list suggested, which is how the Daily Caller is framing its stories. Everyone on Journolist insists that this isn't true, and that Jonathan Strong's Caller stories are taking snippets of conversations and making them look much, much worse than they are. The context provided by, for example, Jon Chait's response to the Caller suggests that this is probably true. Since I have no reason to believe that anyone at the Daily Caller would deliberately mislead readers, I suspect that whoever is leaking material from Journolist is doing so selectively. Thus, it would serve readers well if the Daily Caller would, as Daniel Foster suggests over at National Review, release all of the source material they have, as soon as possible.
A member of Journolist has leaked a thread to me, in fact -- albeit with the authors' names stripped out -- under the condition that I promise to run it in its entirety. When I do so tomorrow, you will see, again, how utterly inane the discussions on Journolist often were.

text: Before we booked this hotel stay at the Hampton Amsterdam Arena/ Boulevard I called the hotel to verify that the hotel was by the downtown Amsterdam train station. I was told it was and based on that, we made reservations to stay there, as did friends who were meeting us for five days in Amsterdam. Imagine the shock when we discovered that it is actually NOT in downtown Amsterdam, but several miles outside in a very commercial center area. Yes, there is a train station, but it is NOT the Downtown Amsterdam Central Station; it is the Amsterdam Arena/ Boulevard station. To get to Amsterdam requires a muni or train ride of about 15 minutes or a very expensive cab ride. As were checking in we attempted to change hotels, only to be told the downtown Hiltons were all fully booked. So we were stuck there. To make matters worse, there is heavy construction in the area, with lots of mud and planked areas to walk through. None of that was something we knew about. On the plus side, the staff was very professional, the rooms are quiet and well appointed and the breakfast items were varied and plentiful, especially on the weekend. However, unless you want to be OUT of downtown Amsterdam for some reason, do not book this hotel.

Can I Get a Hallelujah?
Hozier • blues, indie, soul
By Cerridwen Stucky
You probably remember that in January a song filled the radio that made you say amen more than you had since going to church with your family as a child. Hozier's "Take Me To Church" was in the top 100 singles in the U.S. for three weeks. His soft acoustic style paired with sorrowful crooning seemed to be just what the United States wanted and soon he started his countrywide tour. His show at Sandia Resort & Casino will be his smallest venue played. If you are in the mood for some romanticized angst or upbeat songs about awful things then this is the show for you.

El Angel de la Musica
José González • indie, folk • Riothorse Royale
By Megan Reneau
Heads up—an angel named José González drops down from heaven and lands at Sunshine Theater on Monday, Oct. 12. González's voice is heavenly and when combined with his soothing classical guitar melodies, causes elation of the senses and profound introversive relaxation (totally how angels should make you feel, from what I understand). González lives up to the hype, continually getting amazing album and concert reviews. He'll likely play music from his long-awaited album (seven years we've been waiting), Vestiges & Claws. Opening for González is Riothorse Royale. The duo create beautiful, kindred harmonies. For $22, this show is a promising break from everyday life and a much welcome ending to a Monday evening.

I want to choose randomly* between two alternatives with unequal probability.
For instance, when the user presses a button, 25% of the time it would make sound A and 75% of the time, sound B. I can manually do easy ratios like 1:4 and 2:4 but I'm having trouble with ratios like 3:5.
What is the generic way to think about this?
*I mean unpredictable when looked at one-by-one. I notice any question with the word random in it gets a Mensa of pedants.

The 2004 tsunami was one of the deadliest natural disasters on record. Because it occurred in the Christmas season and hit many resort area beaches its death toll of almost 250,000 was indiscriminate, taking not only South Asians but many visiting vacationers. People everywhere were affected by it. My own relatives who were then living in Thailand were destined that day to be on the beach, but, unknown to the rest of us, illness caused them to alter their plans. I personally heard from Thai acquaintances the story of nieces and nephews who excitedly ran to the shore to see the wondrous phenomenon of the receding ocean, only to be swamped by its return. Weeks later, flying over the Indonesian coastline, I could see with my own eyes just how far inland the wave had rushed, and the devastation it had wrought.
How do you frame such a catastrophe in human terms, and present a situation of pure chaos in a way that makes a compelling story? How do you tell such a tale in a way that respects both the lost and the survivors, many of whom suffered personal tragedies as well, and more of whom bore the guilt of survival? How does one story tell some of the many stories of that day? These were among the challenges that faced director Juan Antonio Bayona and screenwriter Sergio G. Sanchez when they decided to put an account of the 2004 tsunami on the screen. Their solution was to deal with one British family on vacation in Thailand from Japan, but their film uses that family as a catalyst to show the tsunami's awful effect not only on the tourist population but on the local people who suffered even more.
Both the film itself and the filmmakers have taken pains to say that this is a "true story," and they have aimed for the greatest possible authenticity in the circumstances. They have based themselves on detailed interviews with the family members and with other survivors, some of whom actually appear in the film. (For example, those who tell their tales to Ewan McGregor at the bus station are almost all actual survivors.) While footage of the tsunami strike itself was shot in a water tank at Alicante on the Spanish coast, and a couple of days filming of interiors took place in Spanish studios, the remainder of this picture was shot on location in Thailand using the real places of the story, such as the Orchid Beach Hotel in Phang Nga, and the actual hospital where much of the action occurs.
The actual Thai locations and the many Thai actors keep the production values superb, and give this film an authenticity it would not otherwise have. So of course do the survivors who take part, whose emotions are sometimes all too real. Many video shots exist of the tsunami hitting the Asian beaches, but no one who was not there can have any real idea of what it must have been like to have been caught up by its waters. Bayona has chosen to focus not so much on the massive power of the tidal wave itself but on the sheer terror and disorientation it must have created for those submerged in it, and upon the human toll it took. But his scenes of its striking are horrific enough to give some sense of its magnitude, even on the screen. Nor does he pull his punches in some of the grisly scenes that follow. The impressive results that display both the striking wave and its terrible aftermath owe much to production designer Eugenio Caballero.
The big names here are Ewan MacGregor as Henry and Naomi Watts as Maria, his doctor wife, while Geraldine Chaplin has a cameo role as a lady who comforts one of their sons on a starlit night. MacGregor and Watts seem to suit their parts, but in a sense they are playing predictable roles. They become a couple literally torn apart, a father having to search among the debris for the remainder of his family and a mother who for much of the picture hovers close to death. The family's three sons are played by Tom Holland (Lucas), Samuel Joslin (Thomas) and Oaklee Pendergast (Simon). The two younger boys are cute as well as being effective, but that is not really a word that suits Tom Holland. The young British actor displays a surprising maturity and delivers a wonderfully measured performance, reminiscent of a younger Daniel Radcliffe. Despite the bigger names involved, it is his portrayal of Lucas that carries the picture since he is the hub around whom events revolve as the individual stories unfold. That is a lot to ask of a young actor, but Holland delivers.
No one story can ever do justice to the events of that day and the days that followed. Nor can a story set in just one location ever capture just how wide-ranging were the tsunami's effects. How can you tell the story of what happened almost simultaneously in Indonesia and India, Myanmar and Malaysia, and eventually affected even the African coast. Thankfully, Bayona doesn't try. He focuses on the few, hoping that through them audiences will better understand the tale of the many. For such a story, The Impossible is perhaps a more than fitting title, but the film works and gives a view that is both visually impressive and dramatically moving.
The Impossible premiered at the Toronto International Film Festival on September 9, 2012. It will open in Spain on October 11, and go into general release in North America in the last week of December.

A terrible event ... but a moving film
Watts and Holland own it...One of the Best Pictures of the Year!
A film that captures real life the way J.A. Bayona captures it in his newest film The Impossible is a rare occurrence in filmmaking. Not only does he pay respect to the countless victims that were lost in the devastating tragedy, he makes artistic choices and liberties only the most seasoned directors can take. Starring Academy Award Nominee Naomi Watts and Ewan McGregor, the film tells the TRUE story about a family vacationing in Thailand when one of the worst natural disasters of our time separates them.
In the opening credits of the film, Bayona tells the audience that the story is true, but what may bother viewers and critics is how coincidental and inflated the story can seem. If it weren't in fact true, the film would fail within the first few moments. It's the notion that this did occur that demonstrates and heightens the execution of Bayona and writer Sergio G. Sanchez so brilliantly. The Impossible is the most emotional and devastating picture seen since Paul Greengrass' United 93 (2006). In the first several minutes, I was already in tears. Letting up only for short breaths, I feel like I didn't stop crying the entire time. I was invested, full body and soul, riding among the victims in a frightening state of mind. I could only imagine myself there, terrifyingly so and with appreciation now that I wasn't. The brave and committed performance by Naomi Watts is the miracle of the film and possibly the entire year. Watts falls into the role of "Maria" with perfect precision and accuracy. As a person who's only been a father for a year-and-a-half, Watts puts me right in the moment of unimaginable fear and pain. An Oscar-caliber turn as I've ever witnessed. The entire first half of the film is shared with Tom Holland, a child actor that can only be described as well beyond his years. Holland is motivated and equally as afflicting as Watts. A performance like his can only lead to more roles for him in the future. Ewan McGregor, who unbeknownst to me as gone this long without receiving any type of Oscar attention is pure magic. He shows an effortless approach as Henry, a father desperate to find his family. If there's one poor criticism about the film it's the first half of the film, where Holland and Watts dominate, is so gut-wrenching and brilliant that when McGregor and his story enter the screen, it unfortunately just pales by comparison. McGregor isn't given the most of character development to chew through but it's still an admirable work.
Cinematographer Oscar Faura's orange and yellow camera work demands the utmost attention from the viewer, gaining a near first-person view of what could have been. It's a technical achievement of the highest levels. Fernando Velasquez's somber score will only build the tears even more as your catapulted through this reenactment of terror. J.A. Bayona's direction is simplistic but delivered with reverence. A fine directorial turn.
This is a film that must be experienced by all. As you lay in your cozy beds tonight, take your loved ones for granted as they walk by you, and breath the air you so blindly feel entitled to, think about if at one moment, one single moment, from now, it was all gone. The Impossible dared me to be a better human being, a notion not many films will or attempt to convey. I'll try to listen.
It's one of the best pictures of the year!

A Must See Movie
At first I did not think this movie was something I would like to see. I felt it would be one of those movies that once the disaster happened it would become dis-interesting and would be boring the second half of the movie. I am very happy I had the opportunity to see it. The only reason I did not give it a 10 was I thought the character build up was a little shallow. I would have liked to get know the family a little better before the disaster. Other than that I feel that the movie was fantastic. Once the inevitable happened the film kept my interest and was very compelling throughout. The special effects were realistic and not over done. I wish foreign movies like this would make a bigger release in the United States to show Hollywood how to make a movie especially a true story movie. I felt when I was watching this film that I was seeing it actually happening with no to very little exaggerations. That is where I feel Hollywood falls short and puts allot of drama in a film that really did not occur in the true event. If there were exaggerations in this movie they were seamless and not over done. If you have a chance to see this movie I feel it is "a must see movie" you will not be disappointed.

Overcoming early childhood nephritis, John embraced sports and life becoming an avid swimmer, little league baseball player, golfer, and guitarist who lettered in football and track before his graduation from W.F.

Hey, I'm Moira!
Hi there,
My name is Moira and I live in Melbourne Australia.
I absolutely love travelling and did a fantastic trip for 7 weeks thru Europe with 4 girlfriends in 2012. At the moment I'm planning a month in Europe over July/August 2015.
Finding the airbnb site has helped heaps to find the right places to stay....and for a much better price than hotels,etc. We are a family of 4
(with 2 grownup girls) who love music,films,food,wine and experiencing travel whenever we can. I'm a part time musician,part time theatre nurse- the rest of my family work and study having busy lives here in Melbourne with lots of family and friends.
Currently we are exploring options in France and Spain, there is so much to see in Europe but we'd rather focus this trip on spending a few days in each place and not rush too much anywhere. Very excited we are. My husband Ken, our youngest daughter( who is studying in Utrecht NL) and I are meeting in Paris and traveling around. Airbnb gives us a chance to meet locals and find out all the wonderful local knowledge about a city/town. Can't wait to get all the way across the world to see Europe again.

We've all been talking about Gomez and Sykora, but what about Arnott. Arnott left a sour taste in my mouth, at the skate with players event during the 2010-2011 season, he seemed like he hated being there. It was right before our amazing stretch of games, but the rest of the players were pretty happy to be there, even during our terrible start. Well at least they seemed like they were. However I feel about his attitude, I think he could still put up some points, and help us out.

As the supercommittee fails to find $1.2 trillion in cuts by Wednesday, triggering automatic massive cuts to our military, Senator Marco Rubio called out President Obama for his lack of leadership on the issue of spending cuts on ABC's This Week.
"I think it's very difficult for the Democrats on that committee to enter into a negotiation, not knowing where the White House is," Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL) told "This Week" anchor Christiane Amanpour. "They don't want to get their legs cut out underneath them as they agree to some entitlement reform measures that later on the White House decides they don't want to support in an election year."
"I hate questioning people's motives, but I do believe that there's political strategy involved here. And I certainly think the president would like to run against a do-nothing Congress," Rubio added. "But I hope that doesn't stand in the way of meaningful legislation, particularly out of the supercommittee."
