Off the Carpet: The long, strange trip of 'Argo'
As the year drew to a close, it started to become apparent that Affleck's movie was the most generally agreeable choice. It was a consensus pick. It was something everyone could agree on. And in a voting procedure that features the preferential ballot, that was going to be of the utmost importance. But when the Oscar nominations were revealed on the morning of January 10, all hope, but for a moment, seemed to be lost. "Argo" received seven nominations, but the film's director was skipped over by that branch for more artful choices like Michael Haneke and Benh Zeitlin.
The Academy's schedule change had yielded a bit of chaos for the guilds, which voted much earlier than normal and missed this and that (like lead actress Emmanuelle Riva in "Amour" or supporting actor Christoph Waltz in "Django Unchained"). But this perceived "snub" wasn't really owed to that. Theories were aplenty. Perhaps many directors felt that Affleck was sure to be nominated, so they wanted their vote to be felt elsewhere. Perhaps there was a bit of putting the actor-turned-filmmaker in his place. No one can be sure, but the film took a hit as other contenders like "Les Misérables," "Life of Pi," "Lincoln" and even "Silver Linings Playbook" all received more nominations. Indeed, "Lincoln"'s field-leading 12 made it, for all of a day, the odds-on favorite to win Best Picture. For the first time this season, Spielberg's handsome effort had a tangible feeling of being "the one."
That night, things would start to change. At the Critics' Choice Movie Awards, "Argo" would win Best Picture and Best Director. "I'd like to thank the Academy," Affleck said in cheeky retort to the morning's shocking turn of events. It was a happy moment for the team, one that felt like it would be a nice consolation. But the idea nevertheless began to formulate: Could "Argo" become only the fourth film in the Academy's history to win Best Picture without a Best Director nomination?
Over that upcoming weekend, "Argo" would keep its newfound second wind blowing. It would win Best Picture - Drama and Best Director at the Golden Globe Awards, while "Les Misérables" would reign victorious in the comedy/musical category (seemingly taking out "Silver Linings Playbook," though it was by no means finished). More regional critics awards would be added to the tally in January and suddenly, "Argo" was the most critically awarded film of the year, not "Zero Dark Thirty" (though Bigelow's film was on life support in the season by this time, Chastain's wins at the Critics' Choice Movie Awards and the Golden Globes notwithstanding).
Now it was time for the industry to speak up, and since "they" had notched "Argo" in fifth place for overall Oscar nominations, and since voting for the Globes and Critics' Choice awards happened outside the frame of Affleck's "snub," surely they would anoint the "true" industry favorite. Well, in so many words, they would do just that.
"Argo" won the Producers Guild prize, surprising to some. As February rolled around, it would win the Directors Guild prize, surprising to many. And for good measure, it would win the Screen Actors Guild ensemble prize, surprising to most. The weekend final ballots were mailed out to the Academy (a full month after the nominations were announced, which could ultimately yield any number of unexpected nuance, we should add), the film went across the pond to pick up BAFTA Awards for Best Film and Best Director.
The juggernaut was in full force so much that by the time it blew into the Writers Guild Awards last night and came away with a win over "Lincoln" and "Silver Linings Playbook" for Best Adapted Screenplay, no one ought to have been shocked by the outcome.
The trajectory and tone of the season has been an epic arc for a film that first hit in the mountains of Colorado. Some might be bored or disappointed by its dominance on the circuit as of late, but that complaint could just as easily be placed on the amount of foreplay that has been manufactured in the run-up to the Academy Awards. There are many, many awards shows, and a lot of them poll large voting bodies. A film like "Argo" is going to succeed consistently in that environment. Each time the film has seemed on the outs, it has picked itself back up and shown that, indeed, it can still "surprise."
So in this final pre-Oscar Off the Carpet column of the season, I submit that "Argo" hasn't been a foregone conclusion. It hasn't been a gargantuan awards player from the outset. The writing hasn't been on the wall since Telluride. It had to beat a lot of odds along the way, and frankly, that's been fun to watch. Whether it wins the Oscar on Sunday (which obviously seems likely) or loses it (anything apparently can and will happen this season and indeed, "Argo"'s old Toronto foil, "Silver Linings Playbook," has made a valiant phase two effort), the film will make history: No film has been this dominant on the guild circuit and lost the prize, while, again, only three other films have won Best Picture without a corresponding Best Director nomination.
If you look at the season in that light, maybe it's not so boring after all. Even with win after win for the film as of late, maybe this has actually been the most exciting awards season in a long, long time.
I know it has been for me.
(Final predictions will take on a few forms this week. Greg will speak up in a final "Contender Countdown" tomorrow, while Guy and Gerard will have their say via "The Long Shot" and "Tech Support" on Wednesday and Thursday. A big piece featuring final calls from me, Greg and Guy will go up some time Thursday, while my picks will be reiterated on the podcast with Anne Thompson on Friday. So stay tuned throughout the week. We have a lot of coverage for you.)
Check out my updated predictions HERE and, as always, see how Guy Lodge, Greg Ellwood and I collectively think the season will turn out at THE CONTENDERS.

The beginning layers of a "Welcome to Seymour" sign and wall under construction are taking form on the far east side of the city.
As part of the Gateway Project, the new sign and art mural will be used to welcome visitors and spruce up the area where motorists leave Interstate 65 at exit 50 at Tipton Street.
Mayor Craig Luedeman said the 13-foot-high structure will replace the old green and gold Seymour sign that's been up since the 1990s.

Kathie: it looks like you dont have GD installed on your server. Try changing the $usePBM value in wp-admin/post.php (towards the top of the file)
LL thanks for the correction/addition to the edit page postings:))) that is a big plus!
I have a couple of questions:
If you were to go to index.php?p=1 the comments link does not show up, but if you were to go to index.php?cat=1?paged=3 the comments link shows up fine. Do you know why this is?
Is there a way to list the thumbnails when you click into a category link? Because it would be nice if you didn't have to click the next button so many times just to find a picture.
Actually I installed it again. I just wanted to make sure I didnt forget one step.
Now I dont get an error, but whenever I click on post I get a blank page. I dont understand why :(
And this is the url I get... http://close--up.net/pictorialis/wp-admin/post.php
@ara: when the comment form is displayed, the comment link is not displayed and vice versa. That is by design. With the cat=1&paged=3, everything gets overridden and you see everything available on that page. Is that what you were asking?
At this time there is not category hack. You could download the archives from the previous thread which lists pictures by category. I might come up with a category browsing solution sometime later if there is enough interest.
@Kathie: If you dont have GD installed and changing the $usePBM value gives you a blank page, you do not have that installed either. The error from NetPBM is not as graceful as from GD and all you end up with is a blank page. You should contact your webhsot to see if they could install either GD or NetPBM on your server.
Oh. I wouldnt be able to install that myself, no?
@Kathie: only if you are your own webhost. You could download the NetPBM binaries from the gallery distribution and then modify the paths in post.php, but its not a simple install by any means.
That sucks. My main domain is hosted at Netrillium and I know for fact they have both.
However, the one I want to install this at is hosted at my friend's reseller which she got from pinchpenny. They arent really reliable though and even closed their site for the timebeing. Now I really dont know who to ask for this. I could ask my friend, but she doesnt really know much about all of this stuff.
Sorry :(
I might be able to come up with a solution for you. But I cannot give you an ETA for it at this time.
Hi LL, great work with Pictorialis...
I'm thinking of using it in a project I'm developing. I think I saw a comment about this in another thread but I can't find it now.
I need to know if I can use pictorialis for a section of the web and not as the main blog. If I install it in a directory such as /pictorialis, using the same database as the wp blog, do I need to create new tables or anything?
@alethia: you dont need to create a new database as long as you are willing to put up with a few nuisances till things get worked out. In other words, things might break a little and you will have to give me the chance to fix them as and when they arise.
I just installed Pictorialis this afternoon. I'm really happy to finally have something that looks and functions like a real photoblog after spending a lot of time mucking with other things and trying to adapt them.
Anyway, I had been running Nucleus, but in an absence of forward thinking, deleted that whole directory after I had WP running. I don't think there is a Nucleus import tool anyway, so it isn't a huge deal.
I was going to manually throw in all my posts in 2004 by posting them, and then editing them to back date them as appropriate. When I go to the archive however, it shows them as being May 2004, instead of Jan 2004. It would appear that the backdating isn't functioning.
I feel like I'm missing something really obvious, and if I am sorry, but could someone give me a shove in the right direction?
Great work, LaughingLizard !
I have one problem though : if I click on a photo to see the larger version, it can't find it (I noticed that the file doesn't go to /upload, but to /wp-admin/upload)
What could cause this?
@w8in: looking into it
Do I need to have GD installed by the web host co.? That'd explain the blank page. Grr. :)
Heeey! Just installed pictorialis and it looks good :-)
Just a couple of issues to start with.
I was wondering if you thought of implementing an option for thumbnail creation with ImageMagick. GD is alright for a start, but the quality is too poor even at 100 quality.
Another thing I've noticed is that you give a max size for the sizes of the pictures. What that actually does is it gives the image that size, so if it's smaller it stretches it to that size viceversa if it's larger. That makes the picture all ugly, specially if you haver regular photos that usually have wider widths when horizontal. My solution at the moment is creating a category for horizontal and another category for vertical and creating the pictures with the same size given in the post.php
Meanwhile, since the quality of compression is not convincing, I'm uploading the images myself hoping for a better version later on.
When duing this I also noticed that the images I uploaded, when originally only they where about 40 kb, they turned to 100% quality jpg files of about 220kb. That's not nice, specially when I compressed it to look good at a low weight and then they look worse at a higher quality ;-)
Lastly, when you click on the large picture, it gives me an error which I don't understand because the url is pointing to the jpg image (no php)...
I'm about to embarc on the design issue and my firs question is how can I show on my first page all the thumbnails of one category?
Anyway, thanks and good work. I can see it's a big deal you are taking up here LL, I'll post anything I come up with tinkering on my own.
almost forgot, it's not parsing latin characters right, I mean, letters like áóÃúé ñ are not showing correctly. Something I haven't configured right?
for some reason, i cant seem to configure it..
I always get this:
Warning: move_uploaded_file(): open_basedir restriction in effect. File(/public_html/photoblog/upload/051904bangkok.jpg) is not within the allowed path(s): (/***/:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php:/tmp) in /****/photoblog/wp-admin/post.php on line 191
Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at /****/public_html/photoblog/wp-admin/post.php:191) in /****/public_html/photoblog/wp-admin/post.php on line 345
@urbanamy: This hack can also use ImageMagik. The readme has a little more information on how to switch between GD and ImageMagik.
@alethia: As above, ImageMagik is already an option in Pictorialis. The readme makes things a little more clear. Most of the quality issues can be resolved by switching to ImageMagik. As for the upload folder issue, there was an error in the readme which has been resolved in the new download. I suggest that you download the zip file again and go through the readme one more time. :-)
@yodaamidala: Are the permission for the upload directory set correctly? Try 777 .
Yes, I've set the permission to 777 and even post.php.
I tried to use the upload pic and the pic doesn't show up at all. Just the text, but not the image itself. I made sure all 3 folders are within wp-admin folder and chmoded to 777. I'm not sure what is missing. I got no error message so far. I'm using GD which is enabled on the server. I don't see ImageMagick in readme. I did d/l the zip recently but nothing in there. What's the solution? Thanks. I look forward when it does work.
oh my...
so let's pretend i already have WP installed and working like i'd like it to...
if i wanted to add this as domain/blog/photo
how would i do that?
scrap what i have, install yours and then try to make it look and work correctly?
or is there another way?
oh my...
please help, i got this
Fatal error: Cannot redeclare touch_time() (previously declared in /home/shuji/public_html/photoblog/wp-includes/functions.php:451) in /home/shuji/public_html/photoblog/wp-admin/admin-functions.php on line 328
what the heck? its a new wordpress and photolog install
ah..nevermind that, i got it to work now, stupid ftp didnt overwrite my files :P
thx alot
Hi LL,
I downloaded the latest version (my guess) from the link you have on the first post of this thread but I find nothing different from my previous version. The zip is pictorialis-2.
I can't find nothing about Image Magick you only mention NetPBM (unless that's the same thing?)
thanks :-)
dss, you can install pictorialis in a totally separate folder. Yet, you can use the same MySQL database.
In the wp-config, you'll have to change the prefix :
From wp-config.php.sample:
// Change the prefix if you want to have multiple blogs in a single database.
$table_prefix = 'wp_'; // example: 'wp_' or 'b2' or 'mylogin_'
I still can't publish uploaded photo. I'm not sure what's happening here. I followed ReadMe again and made sure the dirs are in the right places (images and thumbnails in WP admin folder, upload in root dir). I even made sure GD is enabled as well. I set up a different mySQL db for this. Yet it wouldn't show the uploaded image or thumbnail at all. I wonder what could be wrong? Thanks.
is the latest version based on a nightly or on the Mingus release?
Hi, I just installed Pictorialis and the pictures are uploaded and all, but I get these errors on the Write page in admin.

Anytime Stephanie has a night with Ranger its worth the cost of the book!
If you have read any of Janet Evanovich's Stephaine Plum novels you know you are in for a treat! They all seem to have a twist you don't expect, but this one more so than others! I can't wait until November for the next one!
Janet Evanovich has done it again. I was laughing out loud while reading. I bought this as a gift for my daughter and we both loved it. Read it on a day off because you aren't going to want to put it down.
Janet Evanovich does it again! Just as we thought Stephanie's adventures couldn't get more comical and dangerous, we get more! Looking forward to the next installment in November!
You cannot go wrong with a Janet Evanovich book in the Stephanie Plum series!! It was awesome! Everyone I know who reads her books loves them too!

Town looking to install new wellJanuary 03,2014Town looking to
install new well
SUTTON The Vermont town of Sutton is looking to install a new well.
The Caledonian Record reported that the Select Board recently reviewed a proposal that would have it borrow up to $150,000 for the replacement of the village water systems well. High nitrate levels are the reason the water system has been a concern for much of 2013.
The proposal estimates it would go to voters by Oct. 30 and the new well would be completed by Aug. 30, 2015.
Sutton has not charged residents on the water system for several quarters due to the water not being drinkable by pregnant women or children. The water can be used for washing, showers and by adults.MORE IN This Just InLOS ANGELES As throngs of Pokemon Go players traipse around to real-world landmarks in...

Playmobil toys give a child the world in the palm of their hand. For more than 25 years, Playmobil has been inspiring children to create their own adventures and let their imaginations soar! The cornerstone of Playmobil is the 2 3/4 inch figure. The figure has legs that bend, arms that move, and hands that grasp.

Unique themes that stimulate imagination and creativity have earned Playmobil numerous awards. But what's the real magic behind Playmobil? Since all Playmobil figures are compatible with Playmobil play worlds, accessories and vehicles, it's not unusual to see a knight helping with chores on the farm or a police officer exploring the ocean in a submarine. Now that's imagination!

It was shorter than I'd hoped and saddled with a few objectionably brainless mini-games, otherwise I rather enjoyed Harry Potter & The Order of the Phoenix. Indeed, I spent six or seven hours steering a taller, svelter, edgier Daniel Radcliffe down the torch-lit halls and byways of the entire Warner Bros Hogwarts set, here for the first time reproduced in full from the studio's blueprints.
That's the treat if you're a Harry Potter fan: nearly complete and unfettered access to the entirety of Azkaban (Harry Potter 3) director Alfonso Cuaron's gorgeously bleak Hogwarts, with some 85 locations including everything from Hagrid's hut and the Owlery to Moaning Myrtle's bathroom and Snape's dungeon Potions classroom.
But while you'll experience most of the film's main events including a dash of training at Grimmauld Place, what you'll mostly get up to in HP5 is jogging between areas to suss out "discovery points". In sufficient quantities, these level up the puissance of familiar spells like Incendio, Wingardium Leviosa, Expelliarmus, and Stupefy, effectively allowing you to cast each faster.
Casting spells and occasionally dueling is intuitive and in essence true to the Harry Potter books in that, instead of thumbing a button, you twirl the right thumbstick (in the Xbox 360 and PS3 versions) to paint a shape in the air and trigger the corresponding energy release.
There's a pleasurable physicality to the game world as well, so that "Depulsing" askew suits of armour, igniting torches, straightening pictures, dusting shelves, shaking out carpets and repairing miscellaneous objects never quite grows old courtesy of the Harry Potter environment's distinctive layers of interactivity.
Like the Grand Theft Auto games, your progress in Harry Potter is numerically tabulated in dozens of satisfying "meta" categories, from "total explored" to "number of defensive spells cast in a single duel".
It's also worth noting the achievements, which tally quickly since progress on "normal" difficulty is positively breezy (it's also possible to finish the main story with most of the meta stuff unfinished). Fortunately the game deposits you back at Hogwarts post-finale to polish things off if you like, and with the seventh book due in just four days, I'm not really spoiling anything by revealing that in number five, Harry Potter (at least) survives.
While most of the mini-games such as Exploding Snap, Wizard Chess, and Gobstones are well conceived and diverting enough, a few are just plain silly. Occlumency, the art of defending against mental invasion, is a simple matter of repeatedly whipping the right thumbstick to force your opponent's wand back to the center of the screen, a mindlessly dull "challenge". The bits of Harry Potter where you play as Sirius, Fred, George, and Dumbledore are also more or less staged and minimally interactive, hijacking both the film and book's most poignant moments and rendering them as rigidly, crudely anticlimactic.
Bear in mind that Harry Potter 5 was the book that marked JK Rowling's shift to a distinctively adult voice, so you can't really excuse the reduced challenge by claiming a younger demographic. (Besides, doesn't the axiom read something like "the younger they are, the defter they play?" What happened to trusting your audience's hand/eye prowess?)
The biggest downer, though, has to be the game's brevity, considering that the PC game alone cots £25, and a PlayStation version is £40. EA could and should have done a heck of a lot more with the Harry Potter & The Order of the Phoenix licence.
Why not a full-featured multiplayer-optional version of Quidditch? More to do at Grimmauld Place than train up spells and unlock plot exposition? A fully explorable Ministry of Magic and a much less restrictive final battle sequence? All the important characters and subplots the Harry Potter & The Order of the Phoenix film had to drop?
It's also a little disappointing that the world's largest publisher still can't manage well-paced cutscenes and proper story exposition. We're long past the point where movie tie-ins can get away with cuts that'd make even amateur film students squirm. You want to be taken seriously, game artists? Then stop treating cutscenes like obligatory, menial filler.

Harry Potter & The Order of the Phoenix suggests the series is finally pointed in the right direction by cracking open the series' beloved venues and in several cases, replicating the film's vision in exquisite detail (including all the lovely moving paintings and castle's ghosts, the latter sorely missing from the Harry Potter & The Order of the Phoenix film). Bring the mini-game element up to snuff, maintain and expand the free-form element, and figure out how to at least match the films' expository abilities during non-interactive sequences, and games six and seven could finally rate "recommended" to more than just hardcore Harry Potter fans.

Sony will cut the price of its PlayStation 2 console by $30, to $99, starting Wednesday, positioning the nine-year-old console as an entertainment bargain.
Sony, which has sold more than 136 million PS2s since launching the console in Japan in October 1999, emphasized Tuesday that there are more than 1,820 PS2 games for $29.99 or less. In addition, Sony said game publishers were planning to release between 70 to 80 titles, primarily sports and casual games, this year.
Publishers also are poised to release 70 to 80 titles in 2010, said John Koller, director of hardware marketing for Sony Computer Entertainment of America, the division that manages the PlayStation business in North America.
"We expect that the PlayStation 2 market will remain vibrant for as long as we continue to support the platform," Koller said Tuesday. He said that Sony was reaching out to families and lower-income households that don't have a game console.
"This will prolong the life of the PS2," said Michael Pachter, an analyst with Wedbush Morgan Securities.

"I looked for these movies for years and could not find them anywhere. I finally found them at The VideoBeat and ordered them. I have watched both 3 & 4 in my blu-ray player. Excellent quality and excellent movies. Would recommend to anyone. Will definitely keep the site handy for future reference. There are so many people who don't even realize these movies are in existence. I enjoyed watching them. I will be watching them again soon. Along with the first two. So happy to have all four movies on DVD now. Thanks again!"
"The Video Beat has great stuff and ships super fast. I'd like to tell them thanks for providing me with some really cool and obscure movies and TV. I especially like the format where they have shorts after the feature. Reminds me of AmPop from AMC from years ago. Boy do I miss that! Thanks VideoBeat, I will order again soon!"
"This morning I received the Little Richard DVD I ordered from VIDEO BEAT on 26th of August. The delivery was much quicker than I expected. I am absolutely delighted. Little Richard toured in the UK in 1963 when I was a teenager and I saw him twice. He was amazing. The show on the DVD was broadcast on television early in 1964 but never repeated. I have tried many times to locate this show on video but never could find it. I discovered VIDEO BEAT website by accident and couldn't believe my luck. They have made one British rock and roll fan very happy! I will be back for more."
"My sister received her discs and we are both thrilled. Thank you SO, SO much for being kind enough to create and enclose a gift message on my behalf. I really appreciate it. The Video Beat has a customer for life! "
"My first experience with The VideoBeat was 100% positive. I'm a picky customer and good service means everything. I will definitely be ordering more DVDs and recommend their service to others. The 1960's are alive and well at The VideoBeat! Thank you.
"Wow! Fantastic! I ordered these from another company who claimed a "complete set" and "best quality" -- they were wrong on both counts! Their set omitted the, "stay tuned for this commercial" segments (which I never knew existed until I bought from VideoBeat) and the quality of their's looked like blurred VHS. This set has the full experience in stunning quality. I love it! If you are interested in the Beatles cartoon series, PLEASE take my advice and buy from VideoBeat. "
"This site the best. I've been looking for the movie "Summer Love 1958" forever! I saw it on TV around 1963 when I first became a drummer -- the scene where the drummer wipes out their ballad in order to meet the "hot babe" has stuck in my mind -- I emailed VideoBeat and described the scene and they knew the film. Amazing. I finally FOUND it. It seems trivial now, maybe 25-30 seconds of the movie, but I've wanted to relive it for 50 years. Thanks a million VideoBeat for having such a great site, I'll be back for more."
"I'm a long time customer of the Video Beat and love their selection, quality and super fast shipping. I contribute to a B-Movie blog and write for our local newspaper about my fun film finds. The columns get great reactions from my readers and I've learned a lot about the various films I review. The Video Beat sometimes provides me with addtional details that are not in the online title descriptions. Thanks for that! :) I know I will continue doing business with them in the future, in fact, soon!"
"Very satisfied. I just finished watching my DVD and am very pleased. It has some videos I never knew existed. If you like R&B and doo wop, you'll enjoy this very much. I will purchase from the VideoBeat again."
"sorry but the last experience was awful..i tried 3 times with 3 different credit cards..order was refused..credit cards in great standing!! tried alternate ways to pay...they were refused! wrote them..got no where! I AM AN EXCELLENT CUSTOMER WHO ORDERED MANY TIMES IN THE PAST..THIS SHOULD NOT BE HAPPENING!! PS CUT THE NASTY RESPONSES TO MY INQUIRY!"
"I had a great experience with The Video Beat. I ordered a DVD copy of "Sweetwater: A True Rock Story", and it came in a timely manner and the quality was okay. You can tell they copied from VHS, but the movie itself was straight to tv anyway so any quality is understandable. I really like it and am happy with my purchase. "
"Do not purchase from this site. I was looking for more of the Buck Owen Show and thought I hit the jackpot. For over $50 US all I received were the same 9 episodes I had already watched on u-tube. This company stole from u-tube, made a copy and mailed it to me. So disappointed I did not research this first. I just wonder if the true owners of these episodes are aware of this."
"I have purchased 12 discs from this company in a little more than a year. So far 6 or the discs no longer work and were only played 2 or 3 times. Contacted the business and was told they would replace them IF I purchase something from the site. Since I am having problems with year old discs I do not want to purchase any more until we resolve this problem. So far no luck. Buyer Beware either the discs are cheap ones with a short shelf live or they are just a bad batch."
"Unhappy with the videos, requested a refund.. All I got was you must not know video collectors market. He was rude, and would not let me return all three videos I ordered. Would only let me return one. However; we never did, because he never told me the policy for returning. He WOULD probably charge me more than what I paid for the videos. RUDE RUDE. IF ONE IS UNHAPPY YOU SHOULD BE ABLE TO RETURN, AND NOT DOWN GRADE YOUR CUSTOMERS AS TO WHAT THEY KNOW OR NOT ABOUT REPRODUCING OLD VIDEOS "I'M NOT THE EXPERT VIDEO BEAT IS - THATS WHY THEY CHARGE FOR TAPES RIGHT". Our emails went back and forth, and not once did he say -- we want you to be completely satified -- this is the refund policy. The video I ordered was American Band Stand in the 50's, the tapes we're not even wrapped up,and you could not even hear the music -- from all the static on the tape. When I told him "Chuck" as he called himself. He got very offensive in his email.. I would NEVER ORDER FROM THIS COMPANY AGAIN.. TAKE MY WORD FOR IT.. HE'S FAST AT GETTING YOUR VIDEO, BUT DON'T ASK FOR YOUR MONEY BACK.."
"I love their stuff. The Hullabaloo, Hollywood Palace, and R-and-R Nostalgia series has many memorable, live, never-seen (to me) performances that bring me lots of joy and make me appreciate that best-of-all eras in music. The quality is fine considering the historic nature of the material, and the sound quality is surprisingly vibrant and audiophile grade. Everyone who loves this music owes it to themselves to try their offerings.
Yeah you could look thru youtube, but somehow the experience of seeing it on a good TV/Audio system (and using the videobeat as a "consultant" to uncover this rare material) is well worth it to me. I highly recommend videobeat."

Is registration login using email a better idea than username to identify the user?

Login name.
Consider OpenID. But if you don't want to use that, the plus for user name is that it isn't linked to a specific email. The plus for email is they won't have to remember what they used for a user name.
I think you should allow both user name and email for login (I think this is the system they have with disqus), of course you should only display user name to others as pointed out by Matthew.
Added. Or you can go for OpenID (highly recommended), which is emerging as a sort of internet driver's license.
Email definitely. Look, users already have it bad enough with a bajillion user/pass to remember for other sites. Most sites do use the Email Address for the username, so just go with that and make your users life easier...
OpenID ftw... if your willing to invest time to get it setup, I think there is $$ involved to but I could be wrong?
There are several reasons to prefer username over email (it would be an abuse of the concept of email, a bystander could read your address - not that I would care the slightest, but some could) etc, but I think the advantages still win:
That said, the solution is using 3rd party authentication services, in particular OpenID: if you're such a hardcore h4X0r not to have an account in any of the supported platforms (google, facebook, twitter, anything) then you probably have your own OpenID server.
Does the site allow social interaction with others who will see the name? If so, let the user chose a username.
Otherwise, use the email address. It will be one less thing for the user to remember.
There are situations where either has advantages over the other.
I think let the users take the call here so you should think about including both the options. If the login name is the same as the email then you select an additional check-box/radio-button etc.
Sites like monster allow for login with either the username or email-id. Check their interface out.
Just use email address. Screw separation of concerns; I already have way too many user names.
You could do both if you want, but you risk confusing people with non-standard UI if you're not careful. (This is a downside of OpenID.)
Also, don't be an idiot like Gawker and neglect to salt your passwords.
Most people like to keep the username and email a bit separate, because their email address may contain personal data. Therefore, it's a good idea to allow the user to choose a username.
There are pros and cons on every solution:
using email:
using a username:

Snickers Surprises
Total Time
Prep 25 mins
Cook 10 mins
These cookies are really good. Unfortunately the kids love them. lol Make extra, because if you want any for yourself, you'd better make sure each kid gets their fair share or you'll end up having a full blown riot on your hands. :)
Ingredients Nutrition
- 1 cup butter, softened
- 1 cup creamy peanut butter
- 1 cup light brown sugar
- 1 cup sugar
- 2 eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 3 1⁄2 cups all-purpose flour, sifted
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1⁄2 teaspoon salt
- 1 (13 ounce) package Snickers miniature candy bars
- powdered sugar, for dusting
- Combine the butter, peanut butter, and sugars using a mixer on a medium to low speed until light and fluffy.
- slowly add eggs and vanilla until thoroughly combines. Then mix in flour, salt and baking soda.
- Cover and chill dough for 2-3 hours.
- Unwrap all Snickers Miniatures.
- Remove dough from refrigerator. divide into 1 tablespoons pieces and flatten.
- Place a Snickers Mini in the center of each piece of dough.
- Form the dough into a ball around each mini.
- Place on a greased cookie sheet and bake at 325F for 10-12 minutes. (Baking time and temperature may need to be adjusted if using more then 1 tablespoons of dough per cookie.).
- Let cookies cool on baking rack or wax paper. Immediately dust with powdered sugar or you can drizzle chocolate over the top using a favorite recipe.
Most Helpful
These cookies are delicious just the way the recipe is written here.
These are delicious cookies! Hands down, my son's favorite cookie. I will say that the dough makes way more than the 36 little Snickers bars will allow. When we ran out of Snickers we just made plain peanut butter cookies with the remaining dough. YUM! I am so NOT a crunchy cookie person and these come out nice and soft and chewy. Absolutely perfect from my perspective. I also refrained from the powdered sugar dusting at the end. They are plenty sweet enough on their own. Really exceptional cookies. Thanks for sharing! One not so minor detail, however. Your temp is way off... at 325 after 12 minutes I still had dough. I had to bake the first batch 18 minutes. At 375 I baked for 14 minutes and they were fine.
These were really delicious, though I thought they got stale pretty quickly. Luckily, they disappeared in a few days. The yield is totally wrong. I used more than 1 T of dough for each cookie because the caramel leaked out if I used only 1 T -- and I still got 60 cookies out of the recipe. I used almost 2 full packages of mini Snickers (the 11.5 oz size package) for the cookies.

A tinge of world flavor to hit campus
Published: Sunday, November 14, 2004 at 4:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Sunday, November 14, 2004 at 12:00 a.m.
Events with a national and international flavor are happening and being planned at Blue Ridge Community College.
From 12 to 1 p.m., Wednesday, the BRCC Global Education Task Force presents the next "Meet the Globe" seminar in the Patton Building, Room 151.
This month's seminar will be about the history, geography and current issues of Romania.
This is an exciting time for Romania, a former soviet country that is poised to become a member of the European Union. The presenters, Sebastian and Brighitta Negrusa, are native Romanians who are doctoral students and graduate assistants at Clemson University in Clemson, S.C.
"Meet the Globe" is a series of seminars on global issues in its third year.
Speakers include faculty, staff and students of BRCC as well as members of the community. Questions and discussion are encouraged, and as always, the presentation on Romania is free and the public is encouraged to attend.
Alma Jones, Spanish instructor at BRCC asks, "Why do the same old thing this spring break, when you have the opportunity to travel to a far away land?"
To add a little South of the Border spice to your life, Jones asks you to consider joining the BRCC's Spanish club on its trip to Peru, South America, in March.
The group will visit the capital of Peru, Lima, as well as Cuzco, the Inca capital and beautiful colonial city with strong Inca roots. Machu Picchu, the Inca ruins discovered in 1911 by Hiram Bingham, is also on the itinerary.
"We'll be spending two days in each place, so it will be a survey course on Peru," Jones said. "We'll get to see the three distinct areas of Peru, the desert coast, the majestic Andes and the impressive jungle."
Jones, who has taken a group on this trip before, says she is "so glad to be able to share my father's country and my place of birth with others."
The trip is from March 25 to April 3, and the approximate cost is $2,275, which includes airfare, tours, lodging and some meals. The group will fly out of the Asheville Regional Airport.
For more information call Jones at 694-1864 or e-mail her at email@example.com.
Phi Beta Lambda, BRCC's business club, is celebrating American Enterprise Day at 1:30 p.m. Friday in Room 150 of the Patton Building. The celebration will feature speakers from such small businesses as Expressions restaurant, Multiview Inc., an information systems business, and Hendersonville Home Systems.
The program will also include a business showcase with representatives of local businesses and business organizations available to hand out materials and answer questions concerning owning and operating a small business.
The Greater Hendersonville Chamber of Commerce, Hendersonville Merchants Association, Blue Ridge Mall, Four Seasons Financial, REAL Enterprises and Carolina Management Services will all be represented.
"American Enterprise Day provides an excellent opportunity for the members of Phi Beta Lambda to take a leadership role in supporting entrepreneurship and free enterprise in Henderson County," said Business instructor Karen Workman, faculty sponsor of Phi Beta Lambda.
Anyone interested in beginning a small business, or just interested in how a business works, is encouraged to attend. The American Enterprise Day activities are free and open to the public. For more information contact Karen Workman at 694-1867 or e-mail her at email@example.com.
Winkler teaches English at BRCC. Contact her at 694-1853 or at email@example.com.

There seems to be few posters on here. I recent bought some stock. I like to see an educated board - sometimes I pick up on something.
I posted yesterday that the US soccer continued streak was good. That is supported by Nike - which came out with good earnings based on increased soccer sales. Nike is up by 2 - 3% in after hours/pre-market trading, and I would like to think that we will see a similar increase for Big 5 today. I think we may see something over 14 by the end of August.
I'd like this to be a long term stock of mine - any thoughts?
Big volume at the end of the day.
Can anyone tell me why?
This is one quiet board.
I like to think that, for the reason state above, that we will have a nice surprise this quarter.
But, then again, no one is listening.

If human history has proven anything, it is that we as a species are not capable of "all just getting along."
So rather than undertake some quixotic quest for perfect harmony, I suggest we spend our all-too-finite resources predicting who among us will freak out next.
Hence the baseball version of that pursuit, a team-by-team list of the most likely player-manager feuds this upcoming MLB season.
Because we all know how much authority sucks—tip of the hat to punk rock—and we all know much fun it is to challenge it.
