Sustainability overview
The North Pacific albacore stock was last assessed in 2014. Whilst biomass reference points (relating to MSY) have not been established for the fishery, the assessment indicated that the biomass is most likely healthy, and is achieving its interim management objective to not allow stocks to fall below the average of the 10 worst historical levels. Similarly, the assessment indicated that overfishing was not occurring. Approximately 60% of the total catch is taken in surface pole and line or troll fisheries. Whilst generally targeting smaller albacore, both these methods are very selective and have very little impact on non-target species, although some monitoring and basic management of bait fish used in pole and line fisheries is needed. Pelagic longlining is associated with the bycatch of vulnerable species, such as sharks, turtles and seabirds in particular. Mitigation measures are in place yet widespread monitoring is deficient and reporting of interactions with vulnerable species is poor. There are a number of albacore fisheries in the North Pacific that are certified as sustainable, well managed fisheries by the Marine Stewardship Council (MSC) which represent the best choice.
Commercial buyers sourcing from the longline fisheries should establish what measures the flag state is taking to improve deficiencies in monitoring and reporting - particularly of interactions with vulnerable species - and specify the need for ongoing and demonstrable improvements. Large buyers should consider supporting such improvements.
Tuna belong to the family Scombridae. They are large, oceanic fish and are seasonally migratory, some making trans-oceanic journeys. Albacore are found throughout the world's temperate, sub-tropical and tropical oceans, although they are less common in the tropics. They are found from the surface to a depth of 600m where they often form mixed schools with skipjack, yellowfin and bluefin tuna. They grow more slowly than skipjack and yellowfin tuna, reaching a maximum size of 140cm, 60kg in weight and maximum age of 15 years. Albacore mature when about 90cm length and 4-5 years old. Spawning normally occurs between January and July.

Stock information
The North Pacific albacore fishery was last assessed by the International Scientific Committee for Tuna and Tuna-like Species in the North Pacific Ocean (ISC) in 2014. The total annual catches of North Pacific albacore peaked in 1976 at about 125,000 t, declined to about 38,000 t in 1991, and then increased to about 122,000 t in 1999. The estimated catch for 2014 was 83,462t which is about 10,000t down on the 2013 level yet approximately equal to the average catch between 2009 and 2013 of 81,000t. This remains under the estimated Maximum Sustainable Yield (MSY) of 105,571t. MSY biological reference points have not been established for this fishery due to a lack of long-term data available, however, an interim management objective to maintain the spawning stock biomass (SSB) above the average of the ten historically lowest estimated points (ATHL) with a probability greater than 50% is in place (This objective is estimated to be greater than Bmsy).
Results of the 2014 assessment indicated that the stock was not being subject to overfishing, with current fishing mortality (F2010 to 2012) at approximately 0.51Fmsy. Similarly, the biomass is estimated to be well above its management objective, indicating the stock is most likely in a healthy state and not overfished. It is noted however, that if a low recruitment scenario is assumed, the probability of the current fishing mortality reducing the biomass below its objective, increases to 65%.
Most tuna stocks range across and are accessed by numerous coastal states, making harmonised and effective management of these individual stocks very difficult. To try and achieve this, Intergovernmental Regional Fisheries Management Organisations (RFMOs) have been established; for this stock it is the Indian Ocean Tuna Commission (IOTC). There are five main tuna RFMOs worldwide and it is their responsibility to carry out data collection, scientific monitoring and management of these fisheries. Whilst the RFMOs are responsible for the development of management and conservation measures, the degree to which they are implemented, monitored and enforced still varies significantly between coastal states. For this reason, it is important to choose tuna that has been caught by vessels that are well regulated by their flag state. Albacore catch data is poor or unknown for the following countries/fisheries: longliners from India, Indonesia, Malaysia, Oman, and Philippines; fleets using gillnets on the high seas, in particular I.R. Iran, Pakistan and Sri Lanka: and longliners operating under flags of non-reporting countries. Prior to 2006 no catch data was provided by China or Taiwan.
There is no harvest control rule that has been developed for the stock, however interim targets of Bmsy and Fmsy are in place with limit reference points (Blim and Flim) of 0.4Bmsy and 1.4Fmsy are in place. Piracy in the southwest Indian Ocean has displaced considerable tuna fishing effort to traditional albacore fishing grounds in the southern and eastern Indian Ocean, which has presented challenges to limiting fishing effort on the albacore stock. Recent catches are beyond recommended levels and need to be reduced.
There is a one month closure for purse seiners and longliners over 24m and small vessels fishing on the High Seas or in an area of size 10??x20??. The closure has had little effect on the status of IO tuna stocks though.
5% regional observer coverage is required for all vessels over 24m and for vessels under 24m fishing outside of their Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ).
To help address IUU, the IOTC maintains an active vessel register and an IUU Vessel List; and prohibits transhipments for large scale vessels at sea unless part of the Programme to Monitor Transhipments at Sea and monitored by an IOTC observer.
Capture information
Approximately 34% of the albacore in the North Pacific is caught in surface pole and line fisheries, primarily from Japan. Pole and line fisheries generally target smaller albacore which tend to stay closer to the surface. This is a labour intensive yet very selective method of fishing with very little impact on non-target species, yet considerable amounts of bait fish are used in these fisheries to attract the albacore. Whilst bait fish are usually small, resilient species, it is important that these stocks are monitored.

Across the street from the piers & Elliott Bay
Relatively new / modern Marriott, if the touristy waterfront is your preferred location, and the Edgewater is either too expensive or just not your cup of tea, this is a good choice.
I prefer either the Westin or my favorite, the Edgewater, but I went in and checked this place out & talked to the staff.
It's a decent hotel, and again, it's all about "marriott-style" amenities & the waterfront location.
Even with AAA or other special / corp rates you're still going to pay ~$200+/night, but Seattle waterfront hotel rooms are never cheap.
Unique Quality: As it is a Marriott, it is like all other Marriotts, Hiltons, Hyatts, full service hotels.
Two distinctions of this hotel are:
the waterfront location; and the outside elevator on the south side that will take you from waterfront level and deposit you some 30 ft straight up at downtown street level, saving you a hefty climb if you were planning on walking up from the waterfront to downtown for some sightseeing.
Directions: On the east side of Alaskan Way on the waterfront. It is a huge Marriott, you can't miss it.
Expensive!! -- Only on an Expense Account
Beautiful, excutive-style hotel on Seattle's Waterfront. Expensive. $212 (with tax) a night (and that was Boeing's "special rate") in Sept 2004 for 3 nights. Breakfast was not included in the rate (which surprised my Australian and German friends). I did not eat any meals in the hotel restaurant, it looked ok, but again, expensive.
Front desk staff was business-like, if not a little daft. They were not very acquainted with the grayline shuttle service that is one of the only forms of public transportation that service this hotel other than taxis. For a hotel of this size and at this price level, I expected more "service". On the other hand, I asked the concierge where there was a store nearby that I could buy an eyelash curler. She offered me hers to borrow -- nice, but Yuck!
My room was gorgeous with a private balcony overlooking Elliott Bay. The room was very large and the bed very comfortable. The bathroom was not huge, but had a lot of counter space -- which I like to have when traveling.
Drinks at the hotel bar were also expensive. But you are a captive audience as there are very, very few places near by to have a drink. That said, they had an excellent wine list, many of which were available by the glass. And the pours were generous.
Even on an expense account, it's an awfully expensive place to stay. Getting to and from the place is expensive too. And it's not really convenient to anything other than the convention center and the cruise ship terminal. As beautiful as it is, I can't recommend. For the same money or less, the Westin, just one example, is more centrally located. The "waterfront" location isn't worth the expense, in my opinion.
Unique Quality: Fitness center & indoor/outdoor pool; Restaurant; Bar
Across the street from the Int'l Cruise ship terminal.
Also, across the street from a convention center, where my conference was taking place and the ONLY reason I stayed here.
PIcture is the view from my balcony -- nice, but worth over $200 a night? You decide.
Directions: Waterfront
Great views of the Waterfront
Walking through the Seattle Marriot Waterfront's lobby, you know you've stepped into an above-average hotel. Located on Alaskan Way, the building itself is U-shape with right angles, so most rooms have some view of Seattle's famed Waterfront. And from what I can see, most upper rooms had a balcony. Open the sliding doors and you can smell and hear the ocean.
Also, the famed restaurant called the Fish Club is a nice way to start your culinary adventures in Seattle.
Unique Quality: Right next to the hotel is the Seattle International Trade Center where I'm sure a lot of important business is done. There's also a Starbucks inside the Trade Center. Across the street is a place where summer concerts are set up. Also, along Alaskan Way, the Waterfront Trolley trolls along and it's a convenient way for you to get from your hotel to the central part of the Waterfront where you can start your day, but the Trolley does pass through Pioneer Square and ends in the Chinatown Int'l District.
Directions: If driving from SEA-TAC, you would most likely be on Hwy 5. Take the Seneca exit and drive towards the Water until you see Alaskan Way. Turn left. The hotel should be on your right hand side.

High Dynamic Range images under Linux
Not all image files are created equal. Most of us know this from working with the everyday formats like PNG, JPEG, and TIFF, each of which has its own pros and cons. But cutting-edge applications from cinematography to computer vision demand more range, color depth, and accuracy than these formats can deliver. That demand drove the development of what are called High Dynamic Range file formats. Luckily for us, Linux is a first-class citizen in the HDR image world.
You may have seen the HDR acronym in reference to computer gaming as well. Video card manufacturers use it to refer to rendering scenes with very large contrast ranges. These rendering techniques are not related to HDR imaging and HDR image file formats directly -- although, as we will see, game designers make use of HDR image formats to maximize visual quality.
... but some are less equal than others.

Christian to Dravid, 1 run, on a good length on middle, gives Taylor the strike with a single past midwicket
Christian to Taylor, no run, didn't pick the slower one, closed the face too early, it landed on middle and leg and he was aiming at square leg, got a leading edge but was fortunate it fell well in front of the bowler
Christian to Taylor, 1 wide, misdirected this time, slow and full but down the leg side
Christian to Taylor, no run, on target this time, full on middle, defends it with a full face back to the bowler
Christian to Taylor, no run, another one down the leg side, plenty of them tonight, bowled from wide of the crease but this time it brushes his pads
Christian to Taylor, FOUR, well struck and he had picked out his gap, lands on a length, gets forward and executes a perfect cover drive, there is a fielder in the deep, a deep cover, but he has no chance
Christian to Taylor, FOUR, and again, full, in the slot for Taylor and he plays a similar shot, strikes it much harder this time and gets the desired result
Christian to Taylor, 1 run, angling in towards middle and leg, flicked away towards deep square leg for a single
Christian to White, 1 run, short on the off, rocks back and drops it in front of midwicket for a single
Christian to Taylor, FOUR, straying on the pads and Taylor has no trouble sending it to the boundary, fine leg is up and he just clips it past him for an easy four
Christian to Taylor, no run, slowish, on a good length just outside off, taps it towards point
Christian to Taylor, no run, fuller, bowled at 129 kmph outside off, square drives it towards point, can't pierce the field
Christian to Taylor, 1 run, slower one bowled on a length on the off, pushes it down towards long-on for a single
Christian to du Preez, 1 run, fullish on off stump and it is blaster back at fearsome pace at the bowler. He did not catch it, but I am more surprised that he is not injured
Christian to White, no run, length ball on off, works it off the front foot into the covers
Christian to White, 1 run, slides down the leg, worked off the back foot for a single behind square leg
Christian to du Preez, 1 run, short, just outside off stump, carved off the backfoot in the air into the off side. Over the covers
Christian to White, 1 run, darts in from outside off and White eases it off the pads for one
Christian to du Preez, OUT, du Preez's frenetic innings has come to a characteristic end here. Not a great ball, very short and wide outside off, he queerly decided to pull instead of go through the off side. Hits low on the bat and gets the top edge, it goes straight up and settles in the grasp of the fielder at long on
D du Preez c Harris b Christian 46 (22m 25b 1x4 4x6) SR: 184.00
Christian to Vinay Kumar, OUT, Vinay's gone! Looks to make contact with the almighty heave over midwicket. He is looking towards fine leg when he makes contact, so can't really blame him for not timing it well enough, or placing it. Straight into deep square leg's lap when it lands. Borgas juggled but held.
R Vinay Kumar c Borgas b Christian 6 (6m 7b 0x4 0x6) SR: 85.71
Christian to White, 1 run, White this time, more in control than Vinay was, but can't connect well enough with the swing to deep midwicket. On the bounce to the fielder patrolling the fence
Christian to Steyn, OUT, Steyn's stumps are straightened! Backs away, looking to scythe Christian through the covers, but he misses and off stump is on a roll!
DW Steyn b Christian 0 (1m 1b 0x4 0x6) SR: 0.00
Christian to Kumble, 1 run, full on off stump, Kumble manages to drive it out to cover and get off the mark
Christian to White, OUT, White's up and down innings has ended in characteristic fashion. He has played a lot of shots, some of them have looked really good, but the timing has not always been so. Stays back in the crease again, converts the full ball into driving length and packs a punch with the lofted drive over mid off. But not timed well enough to clear long off. Simple catch. Bangalore all out for 154. Game on.
CL White c Putland b Christian 25 (56m 29b 1x4 0x6) SR: 86.20

Using the latest in medical technology, Dr. Sellers offers a proven and safe outpatient procedure for the treatment of varicose veins, leg ulcers, and other vein problems. This technology allows him to treat his patients in his office using a local anesthetic in usually less than an hour; these treatments are covered by many insurance providers and have short recovery times. You can literally walk in for a procedure and in a few hours walk out. For years vein procedures were painful and required long hospital stays, but no more!
Dr. Sellers provides state of the art treatment for vein disorders in a comfortable safe office environment. McClellan Park Medical Mall provides a friendly atmosphere and welcoming staff. If you are tired of living with unsightly, uncomfortable varicose veins or spider veins, leg ulcers, bruising, restless legs, leg cramps, or swollen achy, easily fatigued legs, varicose eczema, or itchy tight legs, call today to schedule a consultation with a caring dependable surgeon with over 30 years of experience.
The initial cause of vein disease may be genetics, a leg injury, pregnancy, prolonged standing or excess weight; however the root of the problem is nearly always the same. Valves in the veins become damaged and stretched due to the increased pressure caused by blood flowing down the leg and remaining there instead of flowing up to the heart as it should. Although the condition is rarely life-threatening, it is often painful and unattractive and can be debilitating.
In the United States approximately 20 million Americans suffer from chronic venous insufficiency which is the cause of varicose veins, venous leg ulcers and many other leg vein problems. These problems force many people to dramatically change their lifestyles because of the pain in their legs and feet.
Be sure to check out How Veins Work and How Vein Disease Develops and the 8 Warning Signs and Symptoms of vein disease.
Do you struggle with tired, achy, swollen legs? Do you have varicose or spider veins or leg ulcers? Perhaps your legs tire quickly, burn, or wake you up all hours of the night?

Good Kids from Bad Neighborhoods by Delbert S. Elliott
Book DescriptionThis is a study of successful youth development in poor, disadvantaged neighborhoods in Denver and Chicago - a study of how children living in the worst neighborhoods develop or fail to develop the values, competencies and commitments that lead to a productive, healthy responsible adult life. While there is a strong focus on neighborhood effects, the study employs a multicontextual model examining both the direct effects of the neighborhood ecology, social organization and contexts embedded in the neighborhood. The unique and combined influence of the neighborhood, family, school, peer group and individual attributes on developmental success is estimated. The view that growing up in a poor, disadvantaged neighborhood condemns one to a life of repeated failure and personal pathology is revealed as a myth, as most youth in these neighborhoods are completing the developmental tasks of adolescence successfully.

Mobile phone video services in the U.S. won't achieve their true potential until carriers start using multicast technology to broadcast content, according to a report from ABI Research. Qualcomm and Crown Castle International are working to roll out multicast systems in 2006 in some markets, but their immediate success depends in part on how quickly handset makers can pump out compatible phones, ABI says.

One of Terry's favorite breakfasts in the winter is bagels with smoked salmon, capers, red onion and cream cheese. He's big into Christmas decorations, so he always serves it on a cute Santa plate.
Bagels are always Everything bagels from Brueggers (which, aside from Marx, are the closest in texture to a NY bagel you can get around here, in my opinion). Salmon is always smoked (you should try Just Cured's, if you haven't. It's great.). Throw in some red onion and capers, so be sure you eat this with someone who won't mind your onion breath.
Whenever I travel for business, I order "los and cream cheese" from room service. It's my little indulgence!!!

The Last Days of Anne Boleyn
Thu May 23, 9-10pm, BBC2
Was Anne guilty of adultery? Was it her miscarriage that tipped Henry over the edge? Perhaps the king believed Anne was a witch who had cast a spell on him and was taking revenge? These are the sorts of questions debated, chuckled over and answered by a selection of historians, including the bespectacled David Starkey, and interspersed with re-enactments. It's a simple format, but surprisingly enrapturing. Just watch you don't lose your head over it.

Dylan King has seen his family attempt to talk to his grandfather Vince O'Connor about retiring from coaching football at St. Francis Prep. And the answer is always the same.
"He just says, 'Next year' and never retires," the senior lineman said.
The legendary head man is starting his 60th season at St. Francis Prep and 59th as the school's varsity coach. He joked that his wife Rose wanted him to give it up 50 years ago, but he is still going strong at the age of 81. O'Connor, who has had a chance to coach his son Martin and grandsons Dylan and Patrick, is still at all of the squad's off-season workouts, practices and games. He even was ejected in 2009 for arguing a call against Fordham Prep.
"I enjoy what I do," O'Connor said. "It's as simple as that."
O'Connor started coaching when SFP was on North 6th Street in Brooklyn and Harry Truman was president. He has 326 wins — second in state history — 16 CHSFL titles, including 14 at the highest classification. He has coached nine pros, four Walter Camp All-Americans and coaches like former New York Jets and Giants offensive coordinator Dan Henning, Rutgers head man Kyle Flood, C.W. Post head Coach Bryan Collins and retired Chaminade Coach Bill Basile. The school's new multimillion-dollar training center is named after him.
"It's something most schools will never, ever encounter," St. Francis athletic director Sal Fischetti said. "You are never going to find anybody now that can establish a legacy [like] he has."
O'Connor's legacy stretches far beyond what his teams have accomplished on the field, but playing for O'Connor has created a close bond among his former players. All but one of the Terriers coaches on all three levels have played for O'Connor from the 1960s to present day. Some will come back to help out for a few hours, often taking their lunch break to do so.
"Everybody here has that father figure relationship with him," head assistant Richie Carroll said. "They are all looking for his approval."
Added assistant Coach Justin Kelly: "He is the cement that holds this all together."
A few things haven't changed in 60 years. O'Connor played his high school football at Manual Training, now Secondary Schools for Law, Journalism and Research, and still lives in a rent-controlled apartment in Park Slope. The Terriers still practice on public park fields and have never had a goal post to work with. The team's line of scrimmage and first down markers are still fire hoses donated by alumni in the Fire Department. There are also the cars honking their horns as they pass the team practicing at Cunningham Park.
"That's the Holy Cross people giving us the business," O'Connor said with smile.
The now soft-spoken coach's strength has always been on his blackboard. Even today he challenges his coaches to solve different situations. Kelly was a sophomore on the 1966 team, considered by O'Connor to be his best. He remembers the coach coming in at halftime, making a few adjustments and watching his team run the play for a touchdown the next time they used it.
"He knew exactly what he was doing; just show him where the other team was," Kelly said. "He was like a film in his head before film became popular."
The support from his family — especially his daughter Rose — and his coaching staff is one of the biggest reasons O'Connor is still able to keep coaching. They provide him rides to and from games or allow him to travel to scout an opponent.
The program hasn't played at the same level as in the past last few seasons, moving down into the CHSFL's 'AA-A,' the league's second division, last year. The Terriers went 5-4 and lost in the Class A title game. SFP expects to be better this year behind a strong junior class.
O'Connor's presence still has a strong effect on his current players, many of whose brothers or fathers played for him. He can still recite the personal story of many of his current and former players.
"Everyone will be tired, kind of moping around a little bit," said Terrance Stackpole, who has numerous family members play at the Queens school. "He will come over and everyone will start running more. He's definitely still a force."
O'Connor's legacy will be etched in the program even after he decides to stop coaching because of the impact he's had on the players who still come back to coach. For now he remains as a reminder of what the team is playing for and a link to everyone who has put on a St. Francis Prep jersey.
"We talk about pride and tradition," Carroll said. "Every day we have tradition walk out on the field."

Ditto! I'm starved for information and keep intending to join this and
send for that. But the truth is my current priorities are basic life

That's what the digital revolution was intended to provide. (As for
Geraniaceae Group's antiquated method of collecting overseas dues I'm
obviously not the only one discouraged by it.)
When I get an original idea of my own you'll be the first to know.

I'm watching a preview of the Harold Pinter double bill at the Comedy Theatre on the night before I meet Hollywood's newest star, Charlie Cox, when I encounter his fan club in the row behind me. The girls gasp collectively at how good-looking he is, especially at the end of The Collection, when he strips off to a pair of tight white boxer shorts.
The English public school-educated 25-year-old is not only converting teenagers to Pinter, however; he also holds his own with his more experienced co-stars, Timothy West, Richard Coyle and Gina McKee.
The young star has just played the lead in the blockbuster family film Stardust, alongside such Hollywood luminaries as Michelle Pfeiffer, Robert de Niro, Sienna Miller and Claire Danes. Cox's character was the earnest, genuine Tristan, who transforms from boy to man on his quest for true love. In real life, too, the actor is growing up fast as he finds himself, right at the beginning of his career, rubbing shoulders with the acting elite. Although he had picked up some good roles – performing opposite Al Pacino in The Merchant of Venice and in Casanova alongside Heath Ledger – the actor was relatively unknown until a few months ago. Nowadays Cox, with his boyish, wide-eyed good looks, gets recognised wherever he goes.
When we meet the morning after the Pinter previews, the actor is cleaning his teeth in his dressing room at the Comedy Theatre. As he welcomes me inside, he takes off his porkpie hat to reveal a mass of bouncing, newly cut hair and clear brown eyes. His dressing room, which has the feel of a miniature flat, is nevertheless smaller than those of the other three members of the cast, because, he says as if he is still at boarding school, he is "the new boy".
His costumes for the character Bill – who in The Collection is accused by a husband (Coyle) of having a one-night stand with a married woman (McKee), despite being in a gay relationship with Harry (West) – are hanging tidily over a camp bed. There is a Just For Today meditation book on the table – a 12-step recovery tool – because the actor no longer drinks. He has already begun pinning things neatly to the white walls, to create a collage that will document his four-month run in the play. So far it includes a line of fizzy vitamin C sachets, a Nurofen Cold & Flu packet, even three different Starbucks coffee cup sizes. He points out everything to me – "I will remember the bad cold I had at the beginning of the run" – but it is only day four. He is still warming up in his first proper job on a West End stage. "I am far out of my comfort zone. I am trying to keep up with actors who are consistently brilliant, not like me, this Disney kid Cox from Stardust."
Cox lives in World's End, Chelsea, above an art gallery, with his best friend, Ned, and dog, Ralph. He speaks with passion and maturity about his job, and has a calm presence as well as heaps of energy, which he uses both positively and negatively. "I am incredibly self-deprecating. It stems from self-doubt. With every job I watch, I can't find peace with what I've done. It's never good enough in my mind. I will never be happy if I'm in that mindset, unless I get a review that starts: 'once in a generation'," he says, laughing. "Fame terrifies me. I can say that with honesty. You're terrified that, when people know the real you, they won't like you."
The actor was born in 1982 and grew up in East Sussex with his publisher father, Andrew, his mother, Trisha, and his older brother, Toby. He also has three much older half-siblings, Ollie, Emma and Zoë, who were all leaving home by the time he was born. At the age of eight, he was sent to a local prep school and then to Sherborne School in Dorset. He won the school's Gerald Pitman Award for Drama twice, before leaving school for London at the age of 18.
He got a supporting role in the film Dot the I opposite Gael Garcia Bernal, before starting at the Bristol Old Vic Theatre School at 19 years old. It was a miserable experience. "They start picking holes and I took it all too personally." Auditioning for roles was banned while pupils were still at the school, but after his first year he secretly auditioned for Pacino's The Merchant of Venice. "I remember feeling really panicked. I was meant to have learnt to play the recorder for the class nativity play when I got the call from my agent telling me I'd got the role. The next thing I knew I was hanging out in Luxembourg with one of my idols. Deep down I knew I'd never go back to Bristol. To slot back into my class after that would have been entirely weird."
He then played a warrior in an unwatchable Spanish film, Tirante el Blanco. "To call it a flop is an understatement. The film made no sense. It hadn't been translated properly. I wasn't even invited to the premiere." He returned to the UK to perform for no wages in 'Tis Pity She's a Whore to packed houses at Southwark Playhouse. The production, directed by Edward Dick, received rave reviews. "None of us got paid for it but it ended up being one of the shows to see in London."
This was the first time that the actor had a difficult decision to make, as he had already been offered a role in a big feature film when the Pinter play came up. "It really threw a spanner in the works because there is a pressure to continue to do films. If you disappear for a little while, they just lose interest. But if I want to be still acting when I'm older, the Pinter play is the kind of work I need to be attached to. The theatre is where I'm learning my trade," says Cox. "In Tim's [West] day he did years of rep theatre. Today we are in a manic rush to be rich and famous. None of us young stars has had time to learn our trade. There is a horrible misconception that you can either act or not. But experience is everything."
It is a challenge for Cox, playing a lead role in The Collection – one of the two rarely performed Pinter plays, the other being The Lover, which are being revived at the Comedy Theatre under the direction of Jamie Lloyd, who recently directed The Caretaker for Sheffield Theatres. "Harold [Pinter] has been involved in the production, but he hasn't told us whether my character Bill really did sleep with Stella or not. He is the only one who really knows. Gina [McKee] and I made a decision that we think helps us, but we are keeping that decision a secret." Bill is a million miles away from his Stardust role of Tristan, who wore his heart on his sleeve. "What is certain about my character Bill is that he lies all the time. Whether Bill did it or not, he still gives different versions of the story. He is a bit of a spoilt brat who doesn't think of what other people want. He just wants a bit of a drama. He craves power and manipulates people for his own amusement. He annoys Harry for no reason at all other than to entertain himself."
For Cox, who has been living out of a suitcase for so long, starring in the West End allows him something of a normal routine. He can walk his dog and hang out with the small group of friends whom he has known since childhood. Fame has not changed him, and he doubts it ever will. None of the older actors hasever sat him down for a pep talk either, but Pacino offered him some words of wisdom. "Al said, 'You're not an actor until you've got a leather jacket.' I took it very seriously and asked my parents to buy me this brown leather jacket for my 21st birthday. It's worn really well, hasn't it? Then Al rang me on the day to wish me happy birthday while I was in the middle of having a small party. Answering the phone to him was one of the most bizarre things that has ever happened to me."
Now Cox has another offer to star with Pacino, in Enclosure, a black comedy about a Jewish family. He has already finished filming Stone of Destiny, based on a true story, in which he plays Ian Hamilton, a committed Scottish nationalist who in the 1950s led a raid on Westminster Abbey to bring the Stone of Scone back to Scotland. The actor talks about his career with the excitement of somebody who is living his dream. In promotional TV interviews for Stardust he looked almost startled, but since he's been at home he seems to be more at ease. "It's so easy to become obsessed with the film industry and recognition that we can forget that we are not saving the world. We are just actors trying to entertain people. Doing this play, in front of a live audience, has reminded me of that."

Fresh to Death
What is it about the current crop of British musical imports? Theyre all female, sassy, fresh, and irreverent, and so far, the most prominent two Amy Winehouse and Lily Allen seem to be squandering their talents on tawdry tabloid antics. And then theres Estelle, who stands out from the pack. Dark, chic, and lovely, Estelle is a double threat in the same vein as Lauryn Hill and Missy Elliott shes a singer who can rap. Or is she a rapper who can sing? Either way, the chick is fly, her tunes are catchy and memorable, and after years of popularity across the pond, shes making waves stateside with a little help from two famous friends.
Recently signed to John Legends label, Estelle gives us her latest album, Shine (which drops April 29), which fairly glows with star power. Cameos by Kanye West and production by the likes of Mark Ronson, Will.i.am, Swizz Beats, and Cee-Lo should guarantee her some Billboard chart time. Tonight shes meeting and impressing the locals at the Baileys Get Together, starring Estelle and hosted by her homey John Legend. It begins at 8 at Culture Room. Call 954-564-1074.

The epic made simple. The miracle in the mundane. One day, while browsing an antique store in Helena, Montana, photographer Tyler Knott Gregson stumbled upon a vintage Remington typewriter for sale. Standing up and using a page from a broken book he was buying for $2, he typed a poem without thinking, without planning, and without the ability to revise anything. He fell in love. Three years and almost one thousand poems later, Tyler is now known as the creator of the Typewriter Series: a striking collection of poems typed onto found scraps of paper or created via blackout method. Chasers of the Light features some of his most insightful and beautifully worded pieces of work—poems that illuminate grand gestures and small glimpses, poems that celebrate the beauty of a life spent chasing the light.

by Amber Tamblyn
The lives of more than twenty-five actresses lost before their time—from Marilyn Monroe to Brittany Murphy—explored in a haunting, provocative new work by an acclaimed poet and actress. Amber Tamblyn is both an award-winning film and television actress and an acclaimed poet. As such she is deeply fascinated—and intimately familiar—with the toll exacted from young women whose lives are offered in sacrifice as starlets. The stories of these actresses, both famous and obscure-tragic stories of suicide, murder, obscurity, and other forms of death—inspired this empathic and emotionally charged collection of new poetic work. Featuring subjects from Marilyn Monroe and Frances Farmer to Dana Plato and Brittany Murphy—and paired with original artwork commissioned for the book by luminaries including David Lynch, Adrian Tomine, Marilyn Manson, and Marcel Dzama— Dark Sparkler is a surprising and provocative collection from a young artist of wide-ranging talent, culminating in an extended, confessional epilogue of astonishing candor and poetic command.
