Warning: Do not keep reading if you haven't watched up through "House of Cards" Season 2, episode seven. Tuesday's (Feb. 25) episode: "Chapter 20."
Where we are:
After six episodes of Frank Underwood and Raymond Tusk dilly-dallying around, fighting over the president like kids squabbling over a toy, something finally happens with some actual stakes and consequences in the world of the show. Hallelujah, praise the lord.
What's happens? A Republican super PAC gets $25 million anonymously and uses it to attack the president, Underwood, Jackie Sharp, Terry Womack and Bob Birch. The midterms are coming up and the GOP is gunning to take back control of the House, which Underwood, et al cannot abide. If that were to happen, Sharp, Womack and Birch would all lose their leadership positions and Underwood would see a significant drop in his power in Congress.
Who's behind it? Raymond Tusk, of course. There's a Kansas City-based casino where Xander Feng and his cohorts come to gamble. It's owned by a Native American tribe led by Dan Lanagin, who is also aligned with Tusk. It's a whole big web of rich people who Frank now has to capitulate to, lest they keep funneling money into the GOP super PAC.
What does Feng want? The Long Island Sound bridge, which Frank previously had the president stop fighting for at Feng's behest. Frank's mighty angry at having to now find a way to convince the president it's a good idea, but he doesn't have any choice at this point.
It's a little irritating that Tusk didn't think of a move like this before now. Presumably he was a bit blinded by his friendship with President Walker and too busy being all hurt that Frank is Walker's new favorite boy. But you gotta hit 'em where it hurts — the money, their offices and their power. 'Bout time, Tusk.
But wait! There's more!
What else has Tusk been up to? Planting Seth Grayson into the Underwood staff. Turns out the scheming Seth is on Tusk's payroll, sent to the Underwoods to unearth whatever he can about Claire's life to discredit her sexual assault/abortion story.
Grayson doesn't have anything yet and rejects Remy's payment (which — right out in broad daylight without even being sly, what the heck, Remy? You are smarter than that). However, Grayson runs right back to Frank to spill the beans. He doesn't want money, he wants power and the Underwoods have more power than Tusk.
Grayson does use Remy/Tusk to get Connor Ellis out of his way, though. He arranges for a lucrative private-sector job to come knocking on Connor's door and Connor leaves Claire's employ.
Meanwhile, Remy and Jackie Sharp are continuing to hook up. Remy is genuinely interested in her, while Jackie is playing things pretty close to the vest. You can tell she rarely lets anyone in, but maybe Remy can break down her defenses.
But something else going on with Jackie is that she's acting very weird about Claire's sexual assault bill. The show hasn't revealed yet what her issue is, but Jackie seems to have a problem with it. Hmm.
Claire, meanwhile, is busy blowing up the Walker marriage. Her little Christina bomb she planted in Tricia Walker's head last episode comes to fruition when Tricia confronts the president and asks to have Christina moved to another office. He refuses, because his wife sounds kind of insane and desperate, plus we don't actually think he's sleeping with Christina.
When Tricia tells Claire what happened, Claire shuffles the Christina thing aside (because it was merely a crowbar to wedge in between the Walkers) and then says that maybe the Walkers' problems aren't actually about Christina. Oooh, she's good.
Frank is also doing his part, getting into Walker's good graces at every step, including sending him a heavy bag as a bit of an inside joke/apology. You can tell Walker thinks he and Frank are real friends, which almost makes you sad for Walker.
Finally, Freddy has been approached to franchise his rib shack for $95,000 up front and a potential to earn more if the franchises are successful. We have a horrible pit in our stomach regarding Freddy. Knowing this show, this will not end well.
Best Lines:
Frank: "If you need a punching bag, I will stand here and take the punches, as I have done time and time again since I swore my oath. But I would much rather get back to work, as you have asked me to do.
Walker: "You are out of line, Frank."
Frank: "Dismiss me or keep swinging, Mr. President."
Freddy: "In this joint, I'm the president, vice president and the Congress. He's just another customer. A loyal one, though."
Claire: "What should we serve the Walkers?"
Frank: "Cyanide?"
Claire: "I'm saving that for dessert."
Frank: "A slice of pie is good for the soul."

Women's Basketball Opens Season with Road Split
November 04, 2013
Kalah Martin is the lone returning member of the women's basketball team this season. She opened with a 26-point effort in the Archers' season opener Nov. 1. |
The St. Louis Community College's women's basketball season began its Region XVI title defense last weekend by splitting a pair of games at Mid-South College and Jackson State Community College.
Picking up where she left off the 2012-13 season, sophomore guard Kalah Martin led the Archers with 26 points in Friday's 79-62 win over Mid-South.
Martin came into her own during the Archers' postseason push a year ago, and has wasted no time in establishing herself as an offensive weapon this season.
The newcomer on a mostly veteran team a year ago, Martin is the only returning member from last year's national tournament team.
"She's been very committed to improving a lot of areas of her game, in particular, as an outside shooter," Archers assistant coach Melanie Marcy said.
Sophomore transfer Zuri Hill made a splash in her STLCC, debut, scoring 19 points and grabbing 20 rebounds in the season-opening win. The latter figure represents perhaps the most significant asset that Hill adds to the Archers. Hill's athletic post presence has represented a contrast from guard-heavy rosters of recent years. The Archers also received significant contributions in the debuts of Debra Holcomb and Abby Hutson, who added 15 and 10 points, respectively, against Mid-South.
"We have 11 new players out of 12, and their styles of play really complement one other well," Marcy said. "You can see them in practice, but in games, you learn the true nature of your players. We have a team of competitors."
The Archers followed Friday's win with an 83-76 loss to Jackson State, a game in which the Archers led 40-31 at half. Hutson, Martin, Hill and Holcomb all scored in double figures for a second straight game.
Though they were unable to finish off a second consecutive victory to open the season, Marcy and head coach Shelly Ethridge return home encouraged by the team's 1-1 start.
"We knew this team was ready to compete," Marcy said. "We were very happy with the intensity they brought last week."

Boo to Brew 2-Person & 4-Person Relay Information
October 28, 2017
Relay Team Requirements
You can enter a team in either the 2-person or 4-person team categories. There are no gender or age requirements/restrictions. We do allow 3-person teams in the 4-person category with one team member running 2 legs. Individuals running the half marathon may run on a team but must run the first leg, and MUST register as an individual. Team members will pass a team "anklet" from one team member to the next. The anklet contains the team timing tag and should be worn on the ankle for best results. Please return the timing anklet to race officials when you finish.
Relay Team Captains
If registering on-line, team captains will first create your team while registering themselves. We encourage creative names!! Once your team has been created, the team captain should inform other team members of the team name which they can select when registering. If registering off-line, all team members should register using the same team name, and send all forms in together.
Individuals Running on a Relay Team:
If you are an individual who is running the entire half marathon, you may run the first leg of a relay. You will hand off to the 2nd leg and keep going. You MUST register as an individual half marathon runner, not as a relay team member, but you will be able to add your team name during the registration process.
Relay Team Awards
- Top 3 teams in Open, Company, and School categories.
- All relay team members will receive a finisher's medal!
Relay Team Legs/Relay Meeting/Shuttle Buses
Relay legs are (mileages are estimates):
- Start to Mile 3.2. Exchange zone Eastman Employee Center.
- Mile 3.2 to Mile 6.3. Exchange zone near Haunted Half start/finish line.
- Mile 6.3 to Mile 10. Exchange zone Eastman Employee Center
- Mile 10 to Finish (Mile 13.1)
As you can see, the above mileages for the exchange zones are estimates. About 1:15 pm, the 2nd and 4th leg relay team members should start boarding the shuttle buses to the relay exchange points. The 1st and 3rd leg runners will stay at the start/finish area. The shuttle buses will run constantly between the start/finish and the exchange area, taking runners out to the exchange, and returning runners back to the start/finish area after they finish their leg.

McDonald's, Cinnabon, and Ambercrombie & Fitch are all fleeing Broomfield's FlatIron Crossing mall, and at least one consumer, Nathan Long, isn't sure what to make of it: "Makes me think that [the mall] is either getting better businesses or they can't keep the ones they have in business," he tells Boulder's Daily Camera, which doesn't cite a definitive reason for the stores leaving, although mall managers say many new tenants are already lined up and that the changes are for the better. Meanwhile, the foreclosure sale of the Greeley Mall continues to be delayed, awaiting the necessary bids, reports the Tribune.
But outside the malls, the University of Colorado at Boulder's Leeds School of Business is finding optimism in its latest quarterly business-confidence index. For the second time in three quarters, the index has reached prerecession levels, writes the Denver Business Journal, "a sign that the survey respondents believe the economy is on track," says Leeds director Richard Wobbekind. The Journal also points out that for the first time in two years, the Denver metro area has experienced year-over-year job increases. And another possible indicator of recovery comes from the Western Slope, where 2010 was the third-best year ever for oil-and-gas drilling permits, according to the Grand Junction Sentinel.

While once considered by some a "forbidden fruit", avocados are one of the biggest nutritional powerhouses, packing more potassium than two bananas and containing about 25 essential nutrients (Iron, Vitamins A, B, C, E and K to name a few) and who can forget the healthy fats?
While undeniably, eating cups of guacamole a day not be the smartest for your waistline and wallet, here are 5 easy and healthy ways to enjoy my favorite fruit, from breakfast to dessert.
1) Creamy Dreamy Chocolate Smoothie
This is one of my favorite, easy breakfasts. It's low in sugar and the healthy fats keep me satisfied for hours. To up the protein intake, try So Delicious' new almond milk (which has a much higher protein count).
2 cups almond milk (I use unsweetened)
1/2 avocado
1 heaping tablespoon cocoa powder
1 packet Stevia
2 dropperfulls Sweet Leaf English toffee extract
frozen banana chunks (optional, to give it that flavor, as well as make it creamier)
Blend (in a blender, VitaMix, immersion blender, etc) and enjoy
2) Savory Avocado Oats
Cook plain, unflavored oats (would also be great with quinoa) and then top with ½ avocado, cheese of choice, salsa and if desired, a hefty sprinkle of nutritional yeast.
4) Avocado and hot sauce on a corn thin or rice cake.
One of my favorite, easy snacks with staying power.
5) Raw Chocolate Pudding
Gena's "chocomole" is the stuff good dreams are made of.

updated Oct 20, 2010, 3:14 PM
Speaking at an event in Chicago, Clearwire said that its initial real-world driving tests of Long Term Evolution technology saw download speeds as fast as 90Mbps. Clearwire tested both 10x10 MHz and 20x20 MHz network configurations with equipment provided by Samsung and Huawei. It achieved 50Mbps in the 10x10 tests and 90Mbps in the 20x20. It also saw peak upload speeds of 30Mbps through the 20x20 tests.nThe tests took place in Phoenix, Ariz. By way of comparison, Verizon Wireless is advertising LTE download speeds of between 5Mbps and 12Mbps, and uploads of 2Mbps to 5Mbps.

I just purchased U2's new single, "Vertigo" from iTunes (link goes to iTunes music store). It's pretty amazing. I've heard many people lately saying that they don't like U2's newer music, some even saying everything post-Joshua Tree is rubbish. I would have to disagree, but if you're in this camp, "Vertigo" will be music to your ears. It definitely hearkens back to the War era of the group, maybe with a little bit of a garage sound thrown in. I love it. The bass line is very catchy, The Edge does an excellent job on the guitar, and Bono lets the lyrics flow. If this is even a hint of what the rest of the new album sounds like, fans and semi-fans alike should be quite excited.

MAGNET - An autopsy is scheduled today for a man found dead Sunday in a field along Unison Road near Magnet.
The body of Eric Williams, 40, of Magnet was found next to his all-terrain vehicle several feet from the roadway's edge in a neighbor's field, police said.
The property owner's son-in-law saw tracks leading from the road into a cornfield early Sunday morning but didn't stop, thinking someone drove into the field and left.

Sony today announced the market launch of its first two Sony Tablet devices, the Android-powered Sony Tablet S and Sony Tablet P. The company also announced a 6"eReader as well as a new VAIO S Series laptop with an 15-inch full HD display.
Sony tablets
The Sony Tablet S and Sony Tablet P are both available for pre-sale today and on shelves next month.
The Sony Tablet S device is optimized for rich media entertainment on its 9.4-inch touchscreen display. It is powered by an NVIDIA Tegra 2 mobile processor, features a high-resolution screen, Wi-Fi compatibility and its weight is about 1.33 lbs.
Available later this year, the Sony Tablet P device has been designed for mobile communication and entertainment. With its folding design, two 5.5-inch displays and weight at about 0.83 lbs., it can easily fit into a pocket. It features the same NVIDIA Tegra 2 mobile processor and is both Wi-Fi compatible and 4G capable exclusively on AT&T's mobile broadband network.
Both devices run on Android, Android 3.1 on Sony Tablet S devices and Sony Tablet P devices will be equipped with Android 3.2 by the time they ship. Both models feature front and rear facing cameras that allow for video recording and capturing still images. The devices also support micro USB interface and SD card.
Software taking advantage of the design of the Sony Tablet P device allows its dual screens to be used for different functions simultaneously such as playing video on one screen while using the other as a controller or reading email on one screen while using the other as a virtual keyboard. The displays can also be combined to form a single large screen for Internet browsing and more. By holding the device vertically, you can also read eBooks much in the same manner you would a physical book.
Both Sony Tablet devices are equipped with Sony's TruBlack displays which reduce reflection and glare from sunlight or fluorescent light for high-contrast visibility both indoors and out.
A combination of Sony technologies, Quick view and Quick touch, allow for faster loading of web pages, a responsive touch screen as well as an intuitive user interface. The large keys of the virtual keyboard take full advantage of screen real estate while automatically adjusting to the task at hand. A numeric keypad pops up when inputting passwords and word suggestions or auto word complete make email and texting a breeze.
Both Sony Tablet devices come complete with access to a suite of Sony's network entertainment services.
- Sony Entertainment Network services: Access to the latest Video releases from every major movie studio to rent or own through Video Unlimited. A pre-open campaign for the Sony Tablet devices will be offered at device launch with limited content and more content will continue to be released over time. Music Unlimited, available in October, offers instant access to a global catalog of over 10 million songs from every major record label. A six month trial basic membership from Music Unlimited and a free movie download from Video Unlimited come with the purchase of each device.
- PlayStation Certified: Sony Tablet devices are the first PlayStation Certified tablets that provide out-of-the-box gaming with included favorites "Crash Bandicoot" and "Pinball Heroes."
- Reader Store: Access bestsellers, new releases, classics, magazines and more from more than 2.5 million titles at Reader Store by Sony.
- Personal Space by Sony: This free service allows you to share pictures and videos captured on Sony Tablet devices. You can also access albums that were previously uploaded from other devices.
With Sony Tablet devices, you can "throw" personal pictures and video to DLNA compatible televisions with the touch of a button. You can also throw music to compatible wireless speakers. The Sony Tablet S device, which is equipped with infrared technology, can act as a remote control for multiple home entertainment components such as TVs, Blu-ray Disc players, cable and satellite boxes, and more. The built-in Universal remote not only controls your Sony products, but other brands as well. Both Sony Tablet devices are compatible with the Media Remote app which allows you to control Sony devices, including BRAVIA televisions, through Wi-Fi technology.
The Sony Tablet S device is available in both a 16 GB and 32 GB version and will be sold at Sony Stores including online and other authorized retailers in the U.S. for about $499 and $599, respectively.
New VAIO S Series Laptop With 15 Inch Full HD Display
Sony also today unveiled an all new VAIO S Series laptop with a 15.5-inch Full HD 1080p display featuring a slim and light design and optional sheet battery for all day mobility.
At just under 1-inch thin and 4.4 pounds, the 15.5-inch S Series is easy to handle, while the Full HD display paired with Hybrid Graphics allows for increased productivity. The new 15.5-inch model is crafted with magnesium and aluminum materials for lightness. When coupled with the advanced large-capacity optional sheet battery, you can stay mobile and unplugged for up to 12 hours while also offering a thin battery profile. Intelligent charging enables you to charge the optional sheet battery separately from the PC and attach it to the system at any time without shutting down.
Performance is top priority with the available second generation Intel Core i7 processor. With Intel Turbo Boost Technology 2.0, the processor increases speed automatically, delivering the performance needed for multitasking. For quicker boot-ups, faster application launches and overall maximum performance and ample storage, select models are equipped with solid state drives and feature Quad RAID 0 technology up to 1TB. Security features include Trusted Platform Module (TCG ver. 1.2 certified) and enhanced online security by Symantec VIP Access technology.
AMD Radeon HD 6630 Hybrid Graphics card (select models) with 1GB VRAM gives a premium visual experience and intense HD performance without placing huge demands on the CPU. A performance switch lets you choose between Speed mode for maximum power or Stamina mode for optimized battery life.
The S Series laptop comes with one-touch VAIO, ASSIST and WEB buttons, for launching Media Gallery software, VAIO Care support software and access to the web without full boot-up into Windows, all with a touch of a button.
The new 15.5 inch S Series also includes a built-in HD web camera powered by an Exmor sensor as well as a built-in microphone.
The VAIO S Series is also equipped with a Blu-ray Disc drive (select models). With Intel Wireless Display 2.1, you can sit back and experience your favorite videos, photos and music on your TV. Stop crowding around a laptop screen and view and share content from your hard drive, home network or the Internet wirelessly on your HDTV (adapter sold separately).
The new VAIO S Series 15.5 inch laptop PC will be available in October at www.sony.com/sseries starting at about $1,000, and the optional sheet battery at about $150.
Additionally, Sony is refreshing the existing 13.3 inch S Series with the latest second generation Intel Core processors and will be available at www.sony.com/sseries starting October 2, 2011.
New eReader
Sony also today announced the launch of a touch screen 6" eReader, Reader Wi-Fi (PRS-T1). The new Reader Wi-Fi builds on the popularity of last year's line, while reducing size and weight and incorporating new features. At under 6 ounces and with a 6" E-Ink Pearl V220 touch screen, Reader Wi-Fi is smaller than an average paperback book, can easily fit into a bag or pocket and is available in three color choices: black, red or white.
Reader Wi-Fi will also be the first eReader to offer wireless connectivity to the public library system in the US and Canada via a dedicated icon on the device to allow easy borrowing of free e-books with a valid library card. Readers can access and download over 2.5 million titles via a Wi-Fi connection from Reader Store or shop from a wide range of bookstores and other websites that provide books in digital formats compatible with Reader Wi-Fi, such as EPUB, PDF and TXT.
Sony's first offer in collaboration with J.K. Rowling's Pottermore website (www.pottermore.com) is a specially-created Reader Wi-Fi with a Pottermore promotion (PRS-T1HBC) which includes a voucher that enables Harry Potter fans to download free the first Harry Potter eBook title, Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone, from Pottermore, when it becomes available.
Reader Wi-Fi will feature a glare-free Clear Dual Touch screen. E-Ink Pearl electronic paper displays a high contrast image that is easy to read for hours, even in direct sunlight. Book lovers can touch the screen to choose a book, swipe a finger to turn the page, zoom in and out by pinching fingers together or apart, tap and hold a word to find its meaning or translate into one of the 5 supported languages. On board are 12 dictionaries including 2 English language (British/American) and 10 translation (to and from French, German, Spanish, Dutch and Italian). Readers can even 'write' notes on the page or highlight text with a finger or the supplied stylus - just like a real book. With a battery life of over one month (3 weeks with wireless on) and 2 GB of storage capacity (enough to hold about 1,200 eBooks), Reader Wi-Fi makes reading easier, virtually anytime and anywhere.
Reader Wi-Fi offers users numerous options for customization. Users can view collections of digital photos on-screen, plug-in headphones to listen to stored music while reading, or change the image on the front cover to the current title or to a favorite photo as a screensaver when your Reader Wi-Fi is in standby mode. Users can also personalize the reading experience by choosing from eight font sizes and a choice of six font styles. Screen contrast and brightness are easily adjusted for comfortable viewing in any lighting condition.
Reader Wi-Fi (PRS-T1) and Reader Wi-Fi with Pottermore promotion (PRS-T1HBC) are expected to be available October 2011 for about $149 at Sony Stores, online at http://store.sony.com, and other authorized retailers.

Langley blows third-period lead
When you play with fire, eventually you will get burned.
In their previous game, the Langley Rivermen blew a three-goal lead but were saved by a last-second buzzer-beating highlight-reel goal from Austin Azurdia.
But there were no such heroics in the junior A hockey club's next game as they once again squandered a three-goal advantage. The only difference is this time they lost the game too, falling 4-3 to the host Chilliwack Chiefs in BCHL action on Wednesday (Oct. 10).
"We obviously didn't learn our lesson," said Langley coach Bobby Henderson the next day, still perturbed by the defeat.
"Hopefully they learned it this time."
"We dominated the game for 54 minutes, and had a couple of mental breakdowns," he said.
"The guys just panicked and it snowballed."
After a scoreless opening 20 minutes, Langley took control with three goals in the opening stanza as Aaron Dolby — on the power play — Mario Puskarich and Mitch McLain all found the back of the net.
The Rivermen were cruising to victory but with just over six minutes remaining in the game, the tide turned as Luke Esposito's intended pass banked in off a Langley defender and pinballed past goalie James Barr.
Less than a minute later Esposito struck again, scoring a short-handed goal on a two-on-one break.
And 84 seconds after that, Ryan Donohoe tied the game at three.
The Chiefs completed the comeback with a power-play tally from Spencer Graboski with less than three minutes to go.
The loss ended Langley's three-game win streak and dropped them to 5-3-0-1. Chilliwack improved to 6-2-1-1.
The Rivermen are back in action with a home-and-home series this weekend against the West Kelowna Warriors.
The teams play at the Langley Events Centre on Oct. 12 before traveling to the interior for the rematch on Oct. 13.

Yellow Submarine, British animated film, released in 1968, that was based on the songs of the Beatles. It was designed to appeal more to hippies of the era and adult fans of the Beatles than to children, the traditional target of animated productions.
Based on the Beatles' hit song of the same title, Yellow Submarine takes place in the fantasy world of Pepperland, a psychedelic paradise that faces imminent doom at the hands of the villainous Blue Meanies. The desperate residents call upon the Beatles to save the day, and they do so to the tune of various songs, including "When I'm ... (100 of 279 words)

Release the Stress of Your Day Easily and Naturally
The concept for this irresistibly soothing musical recording was initially conceived of by David Ison as he was trying to find a way to heal himself after a serious automobile accident. After making a full recovery—which shocked his doctors—Ison perfected the musical innovations he had discovered, and created this highly effective musical relaxation tool. Later, the National Institutes of Health launched a three-year study that proved this music does indeed elicit the relaxation response in patients.
After just a few minutes of listening to the music on Relax, your breathing pattern will "lock" onto the music and gently slow down, leading you easily and naturally to states of deep, rejuvenating relaxation.

Rating Very happy with the item itself and it was easy to order on-line and arrived at reasonable time given the holiday season. I had wished that the emailed order confirmation had included the total price of the order (item + shipping and handling) instead of the partial cost (only the item itself). I had to go the extra step of looking it up through my credit card in order to see the entire expense. Thanks for following up by requesting feedback...much appreciated.

Hundreds in Arizona to Celebrate 'Real Winners' of This Year's Election
"Hundreds in Arizona to Celebrate 'Real Winners' of This Year's Election—Arizona's Powerful Bloc of New Latino Voters" is a cross-post from UNITE HERE.
Step aside, old Arizona. The new Arizona has arrived. This year's elections in Arizona have been marred by irregularities and polling problems that have led to more than 650,000 uncounted votes statewide, an unprecedented number of provisional ballots cast and no end in sight for the ballot count, despite Friday's deadline. More than a week after the election, a number of key races statewide hang in the balance.

Attorney Marc Dreier, the mastermind behind one of the largest securities and money fraud schemes in U.S. history, is treated with kid gloves in "Unraveled," a slick, carefully made docu whose effect diminishes soon after the closing credits.
Attorney Marc Dreier, the mastermind behind one of the largest securities and money fraud schemes in U.S. history, is treated with kid gloves in "Unraveled," a slick, carefully made docu whose effect diminishes soon after the closing credits. It's hard to imagine a similarly borderline-sympathetic film being made about Bernie Madoff, but pic's access to Dreier's private life gives it some cachet. Sure to raise the hackles of critics of the Wall Street fraudsters who triggered today's economic crisis, pic will struggle to nab a distrib prior to its eventual Showtime airing.
Pic's access partly stems from the fact that director Marc H. Simon was employed as a lawyer at Dreier's solo-shingle Manhattan firm, Dreier LLP. That Simon also lost his job due to his boss' world-class malfeasance, which involved nearly a billion dollars in funds and securities fraudulently put on the firm's books when it was hemorrhaging money, doesn't appear to fill him with anger toward Dreier. (Or if it does, it's well hidden.) As the camera dwells on Dreier, under house arrest in his uber-tony New York apartment prior to his July 2009 conviction, a certain sympathy toward the swindler seeps into the film that may strike some viewers as interesting and others as abhorrent. "I lost my way, my common sense, my judgment," Dreier says, in some ways using Simon's film as a confessional. How he lost his way is really never sufficiently explained, making the decision to cast Dreier as the central narrator of his own tale highly questionable. It's depiction of him as a man without friends (except for his poodle), with only college-age son Spencer as a family companion, may help explain why no one appears onscreen to cast further light on Dreier's character and behavior, but it nevertheless creates the impression of a needless gap in the docu's overall storytelling. (No apparent effort is made to gain input from Dreier's former partners Neil Baritz and William Federman.) Having amassed more than two decades of experience as a New York lawyer, Dreier chose to strike out on his own after dissolving his partnership with Baritz and Federman in 2002, and, in his own depiction — which the film takes at face value — created Dreier LLP purely on the faith and credit of his financial backers. Eventually, the firm grew to employ 800 attorneys plus staff, expanding to offices in six cities. The key to Dreier's fall, as far as this story goes, appears to be his obsession with keeping up appearances. Although he was never sufficiently capitalized to maintain the business, let alone grow it, Dreier says he was driven to seem sufficiently successful in order to attract well-heeled clients who in turn could bring needed business and revenue to the firm. Essentially, his amassing of luxury goods, from cars to artwork, far exceeded revenues; when the bills came in, Dreier turned to fraud. His downfall is illustrated with animated sequences, drawn in a by now overly familiar style that might be termed graphic-novel realism. Much of the pic, however, shows Dreier living in his pad on borrowed time, poring over the New York Times, watching TV with Spencer and cuddling with his dog. This picture of white-collar criminal as Everyman raises some serious ethical issues, not least of which is the question whether such luxury of space and time could ever be granted to blue-collar crooks nabbed for stealing far less money. The film, in some ways, can be viewed as a luxury good itself, unintentionally demonstrating how the rich aren't like the rest of us, even when they plead guilty. Production package is pro across the board, and up to the standards of a Showtime broadcast.Unraveled

Initially we was impressed with The Warwick Arms with the spacious pub and eating area and friendly bar staff.
However we was very disappointed with the cleanliness of the room and the poor quality bed linen. The breakfast was the worst we have experienced with NO fruit juice, cereals, jams or marmalade even condiments on display. We wasn't offered any toast and because I didn't like all of the items listed on the vegetarian breakfast I asked if I could have the beans on toast but with a vegetarian sausage. The foreign waitress ( who didn't have total command of the English language). Said this wasn't allowed as we had to stick to the fixed menu. We have never had such a negative experience which was a shame after a positive start. I this you should remember that it's the little things that Count.

not to bad
Stayed here for a couple of nights.
Room was nice , breakfast very disappointing. We went for breakfast and you had to order it from the menu. My husband asked what cereal and we were told museli only. We were not allowed cereal and cooked breakfast. It was one or the other. However the brakfast was ok.

lovely bar room a let down
This is a lovely pub with a great outdoor terrace and areas great for kids.
I was a bit disappointed with the room though I wouldn't class it as a 4 star. On arrival we waited ages to be checked in, people were being served that came in after us. The welcome wasn't great either. After being shown to our room I noticed the carpet hadn't been hoovered properly and windowsill was thick with dust and tea stains. There was no wardrobe to hang clothes. Having said that the bathroom was lovely and that was spotless. We ate in the evening that was fine. I enjoyed the breakfast. I would definitely come back to the pub but probably wouldn't stay in a room here again.

Highly recommend Mezze at The Warwick Arms
Wow very impressed with Mezze at The Warwick Arms.
Not what you would expect from the
photo of the boutique hotel / restaurant. The quality of the room was of a very high spec, very spacious, they have thought of their clients and have provided luxury at a very competitive price.
Breakfast was very tasty and nicely presented. Shame we couldn't try their restaurant as the menu
looks very appealing if you like Greek / Med food which we do. We would definitely return for a weekend away and explore the beautiful countryside.

A Definite Recommendation!
Our stay at the Mezze Hotel was perfect.
The staff are fantastic, they were polite and very attentive throughout our stay. The bed was huge and comfortable in our suite (Glastonbury Suite) and the decor was classy. But the biggest highlight of our stay was the food!. The choice of breakfasts were varied and the breakfasts themselves made us feel like we were 5 star diners. In the evening we ate in the restaurant and wow this food is spectacular!!. Also all the food here is so cheap for the amazing quality we received. We will definitely be visiting here again.

1 night stay
this hotel was very clean, the rooms were very nicely done we really loved the jacuzzi bath but our room was at the front and being country bumkins we were not used to the noise of traffic as the hotel is situated right next to A37.
The evening meal was great with mezze providing plenty of choice but breakfast was a different matter only museli or porridge as breakfast cereal and no toast

Packaging a Web application Now that we know what a web application is, we can package it for deployment. The standard method for packaging web applications is to use a Web ARchive file (WAR). You can create a WAR file by using Java's archiving tool jar. An example of this would be to change to the root directory of your web application and type the following command:

The proponents of gay rights in America have finally figured out what Elliot Ness knew in the 30's. When all else fails, go after them on taxes. Some gay couples in MA are suing the government because the Defense of Marriage Act prevents them from filing joint returns.
It won't be long now till we have gay marriage, gays in the military and any other "rights" they choose forced upon us.Better to die on your feet than live on your knees.

adopting measures to prevent polluting the atmosphere with carbon emissions
'HSBC is the first big bank to commit to going carbon neutral as it seeks to reduce its environmental impact. Starting in 2005, it will plant trees, reduce energy use, buy green electricity and trade carbon credits to cut carbon dioxide flows.'
BBC News 6th December 2004'Mr Key told a Queenstown audience that he takes the risks posed by climate change seriously. But, to achieve carbon neutrality, he says New Zealand would have to shut all its factories, turn off all the lights, and put all its vehicles on the scrapheap.'
Radio New Zealand 29th November 2006Towards the end of 2006, the New Oxford American Dictionary voted the expression carbon neutral as its 'Word of the Year'. The decision was motivated by the fact that concern for the long-term welfare of our environment is becoming an increasingly high-profile topic across the generations, from classrooms to political summits. The term carbon-neutral embodies the spirit of what is now regarded as a key aspect of 21st-century life: how to counteract and minimize the impact of atmospheric pollution. A reminder of the universal importance of this issue was published on 2nd February 2007 in a report from the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) that declared a 90% probability that global warming is being caused by human emissions of greenhouse gases, and not by natural cyclical variations, as some sceptics claim.
an important aspect to achieving carbon neutrality is in 'neutralizing' the effects of previous pollution, such as the planting of trees and plants which absorb carbon-dioxide
Being carbon neutral means working out your total climate-damaging carbon emissions and taking steps to reduce them, as well as adopting measures which counteract the effects of previous pollution. This usually involves investment in renewable energy sources such as wind or solar power. In addition, an important aspect to achieving carbon neutrality is in 'neutralizing' the effects of previous pollution, such as the planting of trees and plants which absorb carbon-dioxide. These measures are often referred to as carbon offsets.
An individual measure of the impact a person or organization's activities has on the environment (e.g. the appliances they use, the vehicles they drive, etc.) can be described as their carbon footprint. If you're feeling guilty the next time you start up your car or put the kettle on, you can work out your own carbon footprint by checking out websites such as www.carbonfootprint.com, which provides a carbon footprint calculator.
The expression carbon neutral first appeared in the early nineties. Early use of the term referred to plants, which can be described as carbon neutral if the amount of carbon dioxide they absorb whilst alive is equivalent to the amount of carbon dioxide they give out when burned as a fuel.
A related term is the verb decarbonize (also spelt decarbonise and with a derived noun decarbonization/decarbonisation). Although this verb has existed since the early twentieth century, when it simply meant 'to remove carbon deposits from an engine', in the late nineties it took on a very specific sense relating to dealing with environmental pollution from carbon emissions, for example:
'The scientists say that by 2050, even if you decarbonised the entire rest of the economy, Britain would miss its conservative target of a 60 per cent cut in emissions just because of the contribution made by flying alone.'

text: Japan's tsunami created large dunes on the ocean floorGeorge Dvorsky1/17/13 8:00pmFiled to: geologytsunamiSedimentationTohoku-oki earthquake and tsunamiScienceScitweet19EditPromoteShare to KinjaToggle Conversation toolsGo to permalink The Tohoku-oki earthquake and tsunami brought unimaginable devastation to the coastal areas of Japan in March 2011. But as a new study in Marine Geology suggests, it also reshaped the ocean floor, forming large underwater dunes as the massive waves rolled into the eastern seaboard, and then slowly pulled away. Advertisement The study, which was conducted by Kazuhisa Goto, a geologist at Tohoku University in Japan, relied upon data collected by a research team that went out into Kesennuma Bay about twenty days after the tsunami. The data, which was collected to assess the safety of the area for incoming ships, was used by Goto to chart the topological characteristics of the seafloor. The area being studied was about 55 miles (90 km) northeast of the city of Sendai — so it was fairly far out. When the tsunami rolled over this particular area of the Pacific, the waves reached a height of 36 feet (11 meters), and it disturbed the sandy and silty seafloor 30 to 50 feet (10 to 15 m) below. Advertisement Goto discovered that the tsunami created dunes up to 65 feet (20 m) long and 6 feet (1.8 m) high. These dunes were not present on the seafloor before the 2011 tsunami. It's the first direct evidence that tsunamis can rework sea bottom sediments — and even influence a marine ecosystem.The research team is not certain how many dunes the tsunami may have created. But in conversation with Our Amazing Planet, Goto said: "The tsunami wave current was very strong and I would not be surprised if dunes were formed across the entire bay, plus slightly deeper areas, but some of them may have been erased since then by normal post-tsunami wave activity."As a result of their findings, Goto is recommending that marine ecosystems be monitored following significant tsunamis.

I have been a longtime fan of Grace Helbig, Hannah Hart, and Mamrie Hart, three talented ladies who have come to be called the "holy trinity" of YouTube. Together they have garnered millions (yes, literally) of subscribers and fans by creating original comedy content at their YouTube channels. If you're an internet-savvy media consumer, you've probably heard of at least one of them.
Apparently, their combined talent could not be contained by YouTube videos or even their live NoFilter shows they've held across the country. The three of them got together and made a full-length movie – Camp Takota.
The film follows Elise (Grace Helbig), an overworked assistant living in Chicago whose life unceremoniously falls apart. With nowhere else to go, she makes a last-minute decision to return to Camp Takota, where she spent much of her childhood. Two of her old friends, Allison (Hannah Hart) and Maxine (Mamrie Hart) are still there, working as counselors. As they rebuild their friendships and straighten out their lives, they find the camp is losing money and needs to be saved before it will be taken over by a guy who wants to replace the camp's rustic beauty with the latest technology.
The best part of this movie is its heart. The friendships between the leads work, because they're three real-life vlogging buddies having a great time at movie-camp. It's genuine. And they've all got the acting chops to carry the film. Mamrie can rattle off whip-smart dialogue at His Girl Friday speeds. Grace is earnest and relatable. Hannah is dry and always full of puns.
It's also important that a movie got made with three female leads, and all of them are strong characters with unique goals – like, career goals and life aspirations. They act like real people with flaws. I know that sounds like a ridiculously simple concept, but you don't see it in enough movies these days. The industry is getting better at making movies featuring multiple female leads, but it's a slow process, and sometimes filmmakers just have to take things into their own hands.
From a filmmaking standpoint, the turnaround on this project was amazing. The trio announced they would be making a movie at YouTube's Vidcon, at the beginning of August 2013. They wrapped shooting in September 2013, and by November they promised to release the film in early 2014. The movie came out on digital platforms February 14, 2014.
Overall, Camp Takota is an indie film. It's small and it's simple and nostalgic. It's sweet and fun. And for those who have followed these ladies' vlogs over the years, it's like watching three people you know and support step into a slightly bigger and different spotlight.
Camp Takota is available now via VHX and iTunes.

From Adaptation to Mean Girls, and several films in between, please articulate and explain the phenomenon of the sudden-death by automotive drive-by as the new visual shocker moment in recent cinema.
From Adaptation to Mean Girls, and several films in between, please articulate and explain the phenomenon of the sudden-death by automotive drive-by as the new visual shocker moment in recent cinema.
It's not just sudden-death either. Look at P.T. Anderson movies because he has a hot love affair with the car accident, but not for a killer. These films (almost) all have a car accident as a major turning point for the characters involved. Check Punch-Drunk Love, where in Adam Sandler's character channels his previously random and useless anger into a focused destructive force to wreak sweet vengeance on a family of thugs sent by the Mattress King (Philip Seymour Hoffman), after the bad guys give Sandler's girl a (non-lethal) knock on her noggin. The beginning of the film is punctuated with another car accident, one to which Sandler reacts very little, serving as a contrast-point to the later wreck. Then there are the multiple wrecks in Magnolia during the Biblical frog rain. Of course no one dies in any of these either. A car knocks a guy off a ladder breaking his teeth; One car wrecks into another parked car; and an ambulance totally over turns, and no one dies what-so-ever. It seems that all cars in P.T. Anderson, while not harmless, are fundamentally non-lethal, life-changing forces of positive movement. Julianne Moore's character tries twice in Magnolia to kill herself in a car, both time unsuccessfully, then it is she who survives the ambulance overturning at speed only to skid to a halt right in front of the ER entrance. In Boogie nights, the car is involved in a chase from the Wonderland Murders re-enactment scene, and I think ends up running away from or abandoning the characters, another turning point with all involved surviving…
For certain, Anderson still uses them as visual shockers, but death is never a result. This is actually remarkable because I think the draw of car-accidents is that they are so powerful, but so very common and quotidian when the whole idea of a frail human creature being able to control two tons of fast-moving steel, maneuvering them around each other, if presented to a pre-modern human, or that pre-modern part of all of us, is still remarkable. The car quite simply is the apex of technological and industrial achievement, and the proliferation of a rather complex machine that was once for the elite has made it part of the American Utopia; like if something as wonderful and powerful as the automobile can become a standard in our way of life, then so could anything. That we rubberneck at an accident is natural because we can't even believe that we are doing this driving thing, and that the cloth-covered body in the road could be us next, plays a ditty on our death-drive. Anderson sees this quotidian force, the ubiquity of automobiles, especially in America, and uses it as a vehicle for filmic revelations; perhaps by coming close to death in a car, it gives characters perspective that no other event in the film could. Death gives us nothing, but closeness to it, well, who knows. This is Andy D
