Warm Tempeh, Pepper and Corn Salad
Author Notes: The basic idea of this vegan salad is chunks of crumbled tempeh with spices mixed with lime juice, corn, peppers, and avocado. I've added jicama in this version, but you could also use finely chopped celery, zucchini, tomatoes, or whatever else strikes your fancy. Jicama adds some crunch and a little sweetness, but make sure you use fresh jicama because old jicama is very starchy. Likewise, adding beans or fresh herbs would also be nice. Basil, mint, or cilantro would all work well here. If you are serving lacto-ovo vegetarians or meat eaters, consider adding cheese, pancetta, or both. However, this dish is just fine without any cheese, herbs, or meat too. I find that using spice blends commonly used on meats with soy produces evokes the memory of that meat and adds a certain heartiness to the flavor. Here, I've used poultry seasoning with tempeh. In other recipes, I've used steak seasoning blends (such as McCormick's) or Old Bay seasoning. I boil the tempeh in this recipe before crumbling it and sauteeing it because some people find tempeh bitter unless it is steamed or boiled. —clintonhillbilly
Serves 4
- 1 ear corn
- 1 yellow bell pepper, chopped
- 1/2 to 1 jalapeno, minced
- 1 cup jicama, chopped (optional)
- 1 lime
- 1-2 tablespoons chili powder
- 1 teaspoon poultry seasoning
- 2 tablespoons canola oil
- 1/2 cup chopped red onion, or 1 cup chopped scallions
- 1/2 cup fresh herbs (optional)
- 1 8 oz. package of tempeh
- In a saucepan, bring a couple of cups of water to boil (enough to cover tempeh). Add tempeh to water when it starts to boil. Boil for two minutes, then drain.
- In the same saucepan (no need to dirty another dish here), heat canola oil. When oil is hot, use your hands to crumble tempeh into pan. You can crumble it into whatever size chunks you prefer (I like some of them to be larger for texture). Sautee about two minutes over medium-high heat, then add corn, chili powder, and poultry seasoning. Toss so that seasonings are mixed throughout and continue to sautee.
- Turn off the heat on the tempeh and corn, and squeeze one half of a lime over tempeh-corn mixture, stirring to combine. Add the bell pepper, jalapeno, jicama, avocado, and onion, and squeeze over the other half of the lime.
- Toss tempeh and corn with chopped vegetables and taste. If you wish, add more lime, salt, or a little good olive oil. Serve warm.

Praying Pete
As is so often the case, I'm late to the party on this news.
24/7 Prayer head honcho Pete Greig has become "Director of Prayer" for Holy Trinity Brompton Church in London.
24/7 Announcement
HTB Announcement
It's an interesting appointment in all kinds of ways, not least because 24/7 has quite recently grown rapidly as a prayer movement from a humble, organic little huddle of people to something of a global phenomenon seemingly overnight, whereas HTB has been around since the 1800s, and is the home of the hugely successful Alpha Course.
My own tribe have had a long and happy relationship with the 24/7 guys and have a department focused on 24/7 prayer, so I'm glad to see 24-7 Prayer's continuing impact on Church communities and the wider society. The story about that relationship between 24/7 and The Salvation Army is outlined here. It really is worth the read.
Pete has written a number of books, but the two that I particularly found helpful are Red Moon Rising and God On Mute. If you're not familiar with them, they are worth checking out.
3 comments:
Hey Jonny, can I add to the list 'Punk Monk', which I am a little way through. The whole monastic thing is interesting me at the moment and that is where Pete is too I think.
Thanks for checking out my new site! - 8:37 AM

As I've discussed in the past, Australia has the fine distinction of being a country without any classification for games above the 15+ age range; unlike the United States' ESRB which allows for a mature rating for games that shouldn't be sold to minors, no such classification exists in Australia, meaning these titles are effectively forbidden from being sold in the country. Games are either forced to modify some elements, like with Fallout 3 and Left 4 Dead 2, or not allowed at all.
This is commonly (and incorrectly) attributed as being a moral judgement on the part of the Australian population; however, while most Australians are for such an 18+ classification for games, the sole opponent in government to this is South Australia's Attorney-General Michael Atkinson who remains the only hold-out over legislation that would allow such a rating. As this unfortunately requires unanimous approval, Atkinson has effectively not only vetoed a vote but consistently opposes the government even looking into whether or not Australians want the classification– outside polls have repeatedly shown they do, but he stubbornly stands in the way of it.
Now, a new party is on its way to being formed seeking to take on Atkinson's stance; as GamePolitics reports, David Doe has taken the first steps towards founding his Gamers4Croydon party, which hopes to get such an 18+ rating introduced for Australian gamers. In Atkinson's typical evangelizing and hyperbolic way, this is his quote about the matter:
The voters of Croydon will now be asked directly whether they want interactive games in which gamers score points by raping a mother and daughter, blowing themselves up, torturing human figures . . . killing people and taking drugs to improve their sporting prowess.
I certainly hope that Gamers4Croydon is successful in this endeavor, it's absolutely appalling that the governmental process can be hijacked by one unelected official with an agenda to push, irrespective of the wishes of the majority of the country.

Suzlon's revenue in its third quarter was $985.4 million, while its profit was $30.1 million. This was down on the previous quarter — the three months to 30 September — when it posted revenues of $1,002.2 million and a profit of $47.3 million.
"It is unfortunate that in spite of having our best-ever orderbook, we have had lower volumes in Q3 FY12, leading to a downward revision of our full year guidance," said Suzlon Group chairman Tulsi Tanti.
"These lower volumes were primarily due to an extended monsoon in India, grid infrastructure delays in China, and a procedural delay in closing our new working capital facilities."
While revenues and profits were down for Suzlon, orders rose substantially. The firm secured 1.5GW of orders in the three months to 31 December 2011, compared to 1.35GW of orders in the previous two quarters combined.
Suzlon's order book backlog now stands at 5,755MW.

The 4 good things in D4 is that first Nikon has been wasting their time by upping the resolution of the meter sensor for marketing purposes to 91,000 RGB pixels, second ergonomics, third less weight that D3S and finnaly the buttons are now backlit. But the most important thing in photografy is the quality and in that area Nikon is the best!!
I like these subject, but I wish that Dpreview could make DX format studio tests with these lenses to be able to compare, like, for example, with Sigma 10-20mm F3.5 EX DC HSM and Nikon 10-24mm f/3.5-4.5G ED.
Because in my opinion the quality of third-party lenses have to be better than they are know. The price is important but as the quality of the pixels is improved more demanding will be the quality of the lens.
But of course if you want to buy good lenses you have to spent at least $1000 and in my case, I just don't want to that... So which of these (on top) two lenses is the best?

PROVIDENCE – Data Medics LLC, a data-recovery company specializing in hard drive recovery, has relocated 908 Reservoir Ave. in Cranston.
Owner Jared Palmer founded Data Medics in Meriden, Conn., in 2011, having spent much of his teenage years tinkering with, dismantling and rebuilding computers as a hobby.
After completing high school, Palmer found work with Electranet Inc., which offers electrical and IT/network services to high tech companies in Connecticut.
In 2006, Palmer's father-in-law suffered massive data loss on the primary bookkeeping computer for his multi-million dollar construction company. He had no backup of the data. For the next several weeks, Jared put his skills to work trying to learn everything he could about how hard drives worked in order to save the family business.
After two weeks of late nights – and a small investment in recovery software, training and tools –the recovery was a success. The experience inspired Palmer to take on side jobs in data recovery, and later to open Data Medics.
In January 2012, Palmer and his wife Elicia, relocated to Providence. Elicia now works as the office manager for Data Medics, allowing Jared to commit himself fully to data recovery work –a tedious process that requires understanding of the inner workings of a hard drive, and which must often be done in a clean room.
The type of clean room used at Data Medics, an ISO 3 bench-top clean room, is essentially a type of hood that gives access to the technician's gloved hands and uses positive pressure and high efficiency particulate filters to clean even microscopic dust particles from the air.
The importance of an adequate clean room is one reason Palmer always advises that victims of data loss go straight to the experts.
"Don't go to a general computer repair shop to recover important data," said Palmer. "Go straight to a professional. Having someone attempt recovery who doesn't specialize in data recovery often leads to further data loss."
Data Medics offers flat-rate prices for its services, ranging from $75 for recovery of USB thumb drive software data to $1,500 for recovery of a broken storage array.

The Escoda Prado Tame Synthetic Brush is one of the most valued synthetic bristles because of its similarity to sable hair. It not only imitates its color, but it also imitates its spring and absorption of liquids.
Thanks to the perfect combination of three different lengths in the fibers, the brush stroke, color carrying capacity and snap is virtually the same as one made of natural hair.
The long lacquered wood handle is triple crimped to the nickel-plated brass ferrule.

Accessing one perl sub by multiple threads..by Anonymous Monk |
on Dec 07, 2000 at 16:39 UTC ( #45489=perlquestion: print w/replies, xml ) | Need Help?? |
Anonymous Monk has asked for the
wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:
I've a doubt on accesssing one perl subroutine by multiple threads.
Let us say two threads (using perlcall APIs) access a perl sub named X.
First thread invoked X. while processing, First thread is preempted and
the Second thread starts executing and accessing the same sub X.
My question is, if the First thread continue execution from where it was
preempted by the Second thread?. Is perl subroutine thread safe.
We are getting some strange results.
If you have answers for the same please let us know. Please

(500) Days of Summer [DVD] [Spanish]
1 disc
Region 1 USA/CA (
Fans of HIGH FIDELITY and ETERNAL SUNSHINE OF THE SPOTLESS MIND will be charmed by this quirky film that sheds a linear plot in favor of a memory-driven look at a failed romance. Joseph Gordon-Levitt (BRICK) stars as Tom, a greeting-card writer who dreams of becoming an architect and finding his true love. Zooey Deschanel (THE HAPPENING) plays Summer, a vintage-looking beauty whose ideas about love are entirely modern. As Tom remembers his 500 days with Summer, his mind jumps from moment to moment, largely thinking of the good times in their trouble-filled relationship.
Indie darlings Deschanel and Gordon-Levitt are perfectly cast in this sweet, funny film that infuses the typical romantic tropes with reality. Anyone else would have caused audiences to hate Summer, but Deschanel is adorable enough that she still endears herself to viewers. Arthouse favorite Gordon-Levitt hasnt played a traditional romantic lead since 10 THINGS I HATE ABOUT YOU in 1999, but here he proves equally adept at portraying Toms sweetness and his neuroses. Music-video director Marc Webb makes his feature debut with (500) DAYS OF SUMMER, and its easy to see influences of his past work. The soundtrack boasts songs from Regina Spektor, Doves, Feist, Wolfmother, and, of course, The Smiths, the band that brings the couple together. Webb also adds an innovative style to the dramedy, combining a naturalistic look at love with a non-linear plot, animated vignettes, and a triumphant musical sequence. The films mixture of cynicism and romance makes it perfect viewing for happy couples, the recently dumped, and the hopeful singles in the audience.

Critic Reviews
"[The] compelling premise is given the rueful temporal hopscotch of ANNIE HALL, adapted to two twentysomethings and new cultural references..."
Film Comment
4 stars out of 4 -- "[A] delightful comedy, alive with invention....There's a little black and white, a little musical number, a little Fellini, which is always helpful in evoking a man in the act of yearning."
Chicago Sun-Times
"[A]n original romantic comedy....It bristles with energy, emotional and intellectual, as it flits about the dizzying highs and weeping-karaoke lows of a passionate entanglement."
Los Angeles Times
"(500) DAYS OF SUMMER finds just the right scale and tone, neither trivializing nor melodramatically overstating the delicate feelings it explores."
New York Times
"As Gordon-Levitt matures and age begins to burrow into his boyish face, he's become a relaxed yet still cerebral performer....[Deschanel] intrigues by holding her cards close to the vest."
"Marc Webb's bright bauble of a boy-meets-girl comedy is a rueful tribute to the wisdom of hindsight..."
Wall Street Journal
"In its brightest moments, (500) DAYS OF SUMMER delves honestly and insightfully into the mysteries of love and romantic chemistry, and how elusive a connection can be."
A.V. Club
"Much like ANNIE HALL did for a previous generation, (500) DAYS OF SUMMER may be the movie that best captures a contemporary romantic sensibility."
USA Today
"(500) DAYS is like a mood ring cued to the ups, downs, and confusions of modern love....[The film is] not just bitter or sweet but everything in between." -- Grade: A
Entertainment Weekly
3.5 stars out of 4 -- "[T]he sublimely smart-sexy-joyful-sad (500) DAYS OF SUMMER hits you like a blast of pure romantic oxygen. It turns the genre on its empty head and sees relationships for what they are -- a bruising business."
Rolling Stone
4 stars out of 4 -- "The hopeless romantics are sure to fall head over heels with this one."
4 stars out of 5 -- DAYS offers astute, funny insight into the confusion rife in love and infatuation. Gordon-Levitt anchors the film with an emotionally candid turn...
Total Film
Included in Entertainment Weekly's "The Best Films Of The Year" -- "[E]xciting to behold...Joseph Gordon-Levitt and Zooey Deschanel beautifully catch the mood-ring melancholia of two lovers..."
Entertainment Weekly
Ranked #6 in USA Today's "Top Ten Films Of 2009."
USA Today
4 stars out of 5 -- "A sharp spin on the usual rom-com formulae, this is funny, sensitive and challenges the genre's gender conventions."
3 stars out of 5 -- "Screenwriters Scott Neustadter and Michael Weber and director Marc Webb show a real insight into the contemporary audience by creating a movie that almost literally alternates between scenes of a relationship's glorious beginning and the details of it falling apart."
Box Office
Ranked #9 in Rolling Stone's "The 10 Best Movies Of 2009" -- "[Deschanel and Gordon-Levitt] are star-crossed lovers to die for."

"It's Our Turn: Fight to Save Civil War Battlefields"
"Generations that know us not and that we know not of, heart-drawn to see where and by whom great things were suffered and done for them, shall come to this deathless field, to ponder and dream…"
When Joshua Lawrence Chamberlain spoke these words at the dedication of the 20th Maine monument at Gettysburg in 1889, he was speaking about us. The men who fought on the fields at Gettysburg and other battle sites knew the importance of preserving these sites for future generations. Preserving Civil War battlefields remains just as important today.
With each passing day, more historical sites are lost and many others are threatened. When battlefields are destroyed by construction, industry, and urban sprawl, these sacred sites are gone forever. Wal-Mart plans to build a supercenter at the Wilderness battlefield. Construction of this sort brings traffic and other development, having even farther reaching consequences than the initial loss of historic ground. As it is, one line of trenches at the Wilderness battlefield leaves the park and disappears into an upscale neighborhood, lost to the visitor. The pristine fields of Spring Hill around Rippavilla Plantation are now threatened by development too as General Motors prepares to sell the land.
People visit battlefields today to honor the memory of their ancestors, to teach their children about America's history, or to learn about the Civil War themselves. Battlefields are consecrated ground and need to be preserved to teach future generations about history. Learning history from a book is one thing; learning history on a battlefield where thousands of people lost their lives is quite another. Seeing the monuments at battlefields and the rows of graves at National Cemeteries makes a much greater impression than reading statistics in a book, especially to a child. It's our turn to fight to save Civil War battlefields. If we don't act now, these sacred sites will be lost forever.

PBN Staff Writer
Providence-based RBS Citizens Financial Group's failure to meet some requirements of the Federal Reserve's "stress test" for financial institutions has been downplayed by the bank and some analysts who don't see it significantly impacting the bank's announced 25 percent initial public offering later this year.
On the other hand, the Financial Times reported on March 27 that of three foreign banks with U.S. subsidiaries that had their capital plans "fall afoul of the U.S. Federal Reserve's stress test, the failure is likely to be most painful for Royal Bank of Scotland."
Financial Times writer Martin Arnold said the Fed's findings of "deficiencies in RBS Citizens' practices for estimating revenue and losses under a stress scenario and for ensuring the appropriateness of loss estimates across business lines given a specific stress scenario" would likely have a detrimental impact.
"It is almost certain to delay RBS' plan to file for an initial public offering of Citizens, its U.S. network of 1,400 branches, which it had been expected to do before this summer in order to sell shares in the second half of the year," Arnold wrote.
RBS Citizens, which has 5,400 Rhode Island employees, in a statement on March 26 clarified that the Fed "objected to certain qualitative aspects" of the company's capital plan.
"To be clear, we didn't fail stress tests. We passed stressed tests," RBS London-based spokesman Erfan Hussain told Providence Business News on April 1.
As for the IPO, that's on track, said Hussain.
"We have said from the outset that IPO is our favored plan and that will remain the case," said Hussain.
David O'Connell, a senior analyst for commercial banking at the Aite Group in Boston, said "It's a big deal if under all the scenarios a bank doesn't have enough capital. … RBS did have enough capital on hand." He doesn't think the stress-test issue by itself would derail the IPO plans.
Robert Cusack, portfolio manager for Providence-based Whalerock Point Partners, agrees.
"The stress-test failure is expected to cause pause by potential buyers, but shouldn't derail the process completely," said Cusack.
"With two Japanese banks expressing interest in one week, and the parent acknowledging it would sell at the right price, it appears an auction for Citizens is underway as we speak," he said. •

A few weeks ago, I brought you the very strange and highly unbelievable news that champion Irish boxing brothers, Paddy and Paul Hyland, had agreed to become the first fighters under the brand new flag of Team Snooki Boxing. Sure enough, the brothers were introduced yesterday by the "Jersey Shore" star herself at McFadden's Saloon in New York City. Of course it was at an Irish pub. Twenty bucks says she also greeted them each with a potato and told them if they behaved she would find them some work on the docks.
Also on hand was Nicole "Snooki" Polizzi's father, Andy, who single-handedly destroyed my theory that there was no way this girl had a father who wasn't living in a mental institution. In all sincere honesty, I tip my cap to Mr. Polizzi for being so supportive, because his daughter is the living, breathing proof of why I'm terrified to one day have a daughter.
Sure, she's worth millions and she – unlike her castmates – has surrounded herself with smart people who have helped make sure she handles her money properly, and from that she's building quite the empire for herself. But it's how she got to where she is – she's every father's worst nightmare. Judging by that picture, I'd guess Andy was in his 50s. Judging by his daughter's reputation, I'd guess he was 30.

The storyteller comes home
Former Beaverton resident Todd Snider will perform Saturday at the Northwest String Summit
Beaverton native Todd Snider has made a career singing about his Oregon childhood.
Now, after years on the road, the 44-year-old singer-songwriter is planning a return trip to the town he grew up in, as well as a one-night-only show at Horning's Hideout this weekend at the annual Northwest String Summit music festival.
'I always look forward to coming home,' Snider said. 'The first time I played (at Horning's Hideout) I thought 'how did I not know this was here when I was young?' It's such a great place to play.'
Snider, who has been featured in publications such as Rolling Stone magazine, has been compared to the likes of Johnny Cash as well as comedian Bill Hicks, and has been called the most likable man in music.
He has gained a large cult following for his often auto-biographical songs and stories, including his days playing football for Beaverton High School, or the day he got arrested in Tillamook County.
The Northwest is a clear theme in much of Snider's music, but he said that his connection to Oregon goes much deeper.
'I sing a lot about growing up here, and I talk a lot about it,' Snider said. 'But I think the actual sound of the music, when I am putting the arrangements together, it's almost like going for this feeling of home.
'Sometimes when I write songs, I think about the Oregon coastline,' he said. 'I want to make music that sounds like something you would listen to when you're driving down the coast. Music that says 'this sounds like this place.''
Coming home, literally
Now a resident of Nashville, Tenn., Snider said he thinks of himself as a musical gypsy.
'That suits me, though,' he said. 'It's better for me to be a gypsy than to sit around. If I sit at home for too long, I'll probably develop a gambling problem or something,' he laughs. 'The road is the life I chose.'
Snider left Oregon after high school and said he only gets the chance to return to the Portland area once a year on tour.
'I can't really see a time when I wouldn't have to be out on the road,' Snider said. 'But I love it. I wanted that life and I got it. Sometimes I think about taking a little time off, but it's not really for me.'
While Snider makes sure to hit the local hotspots while in town (he said he always makes a trip out to Alpenrose dairy) this year he has a special request.
'This year I sent a letter to the house I grew up in,' Snider said. 'And I'm hoping to hear from them before I leave. I think it'd be great to sit on my family's back deck and drink a beer. I mean, I promise I won't break anything. I just think it'd be real cool if they'd give me one hour out on the deck I grew up on.'
Snider's performance at the String Summit will be his third in the festival's 10 year history.
On tour, Snider usually appears alone on stage but for the Summit he will team up with Great American Taxi, a Colorado-based jam band that Snider recorded with on his latest album.
'Playing with Great American Taxi has been a fun ride,' Snider said. 'I like to play anytime, but part of what makes it fun is that we are always trying to make it different.'
Snider takes the stage at 6:30 p.m., Saturday at Horning's Hideout in North Plains.

WeHo Club At Center Of Republican Controversy Misunderstood
An image from Voyeur's website.
A publicist for the West Hollywood club at the center of a Republican National Committee spending spree in the Los Angeles area last month wants to correct the record: It's not a bondage club, nor is it a strip joint or bikini bar.
Voyeur is just a regular, old, run-of-the-mill venue that caters to the bottle-service crowd. That would put it firmly in the same league as Villa, Opera, and all those other paparazzi-stalked venues where the music is crap (DJ who now?), the sound system is an afterthought, the decor is as plush and cheesy as a Quagmire's bedroom, and the bill is never itemized. (Yawn).
Still, Voyeur does wrap itself in sexually charged, bondage-like imagery -- as seen on its site. It's no wonder that, following the revelation the Republican National Committee approved nearly $2,000 in expenditures at the club for partying young Republicans, Fox News and other sources pegged the place as a topless bar, likely as a result of its scantily clad go-go dancers.
The venue, which was once called 7969 and, before that, Peanuts, has always flirted with the edge of sexuality, whether it hosted leather-clad Goths or promoted a male-stripper night for girls. It was recently renovated and put on the TMZ map. But the venue hasn't lost its freaky edge. For young Republicans with a donor-supported expense account (the money was later reimbursed by an RNC giver), Voyeur probably represented a walk-on-the-wild-side milestone.
For the record, here's the statement Voyeur publicist Sarah Waldman gave to the Weekly: "Voyeur is an exclusive gathering place featuring avant-garde, live art installations. Voyeur is not a strip club or bondage club. Voyeur caters to high-end clientele and respects the privacy of all of our guests."

(in Greek, Athene). The most famous statue of this goddess was by Phidias, the Greek sculptor. It was wood encased with ivory; the drapery, however, was of solid gold. It represented the goddess standing, clothed with a tunic reaching to the ankles, a spear in her left hand, and an image of Victory (four cubits high = about six feet) in her right. She is girded with the aegis, has a helmet on her head, and her shield rests by her side on the ground. The entire height was nearly forty feet. This statue was anciently one of the "Seven Wonders of the World." A superb statue of the goddess was found at Velletri, but whether this was the famous statue of Phidias is not known. It is preserved in the Imperial Museum.
`The exquisite antique statue of Minerva Medica is in the Vatican of Rome.
Invita Minerva, without sufficient ability; against the grain. Thus, Charles Kean acted comedy invita Minerva, his forte lying another way. Sir Philip Sidney attempted the Horatian metres in English verse invita Minerva.

A urinary catheter is a small, flexible tube that can be inserted through the urethra and into the bladder, allowing urine to drain. The urethra is the tube that carries urine from the bladder out of the body.
An indwelling Foley catheter remains in place continuously. To keep the catheter from slipping out, there is a balloon on one end that is inflated with sterile water after that end is inside the bladder.

In just one week, his $850,000 fundraising goal has been reached and exceeded. Wow! The property is on the market for $1.6 million, and New York State agreed to match a donation up to $850,000. Donations reached $873,000, so now they can afford to purchase and preserve the tower. The group still needs at least an additional $5 million to turn it into a full fledged museum.This goal got a boost from Tesla's Elon Musk and a last minute donation of $33,000 from a generous patron. During the week, 20,000 people have donated and the drive has generated an average of $145,000 per day. Advertisement Advertisement There are 39 days left.

Story: 6/10
Ah anime; sacred provider not only of perversion in heavy dozes and occasional masterpieces, but you're also a medium that excels at creating material so bizarre that it rumbles the very foundation of human comprehension. Is there such a thing as a mandatory reaction to an OVA such a bizarre as this one? More importantly, are there any vacant indicators that could provide the viewer with information regarding which specific age-group Super Kuma-san yearns to attract? The answer, as expected, is a "no" emphasized by two huge letters displayed on a neon sign. There may be numerous examples of shows that play confidently on our concepts of innocence to create exceedingly disturbing tales where adorable creatures lead their mundane lives in realms occupied with excessive violence and flowing blood, but Kuma-san inhabits a peculiar world where the usually highlighted line between child friendly and inappropriate is insanely subjective. The narrative carefully navigates itself away from bloodshed and mature content, but I doubt any parents would allow their children to watch something as fundamentally screwed up; a fact that becomes the primary source of appeal in this eccentric piece of animation.
The storyline is determined to take a closer look at the life of Super Kuma-san: an animate stuffed bear whose daily agenda includes counteracting injustice and providing his adolescent worshipers with happiness and joy. Though initiating its eccentric course with a childish approach, the narrative quickly escalates into the anime equivalent of Tim Burton's The Nightmare Before Christmas; you have no idea whether your children should be watching it or not. To its undivided benefit it does seem to encourage virtues like kindness and bravery, but the endearing undertones are muddled by the bizarre ramblings of a confused and potentially frightening Kuma-san. As obscure and short as it may be, the mere thought of such a surreal symbiosis of stuffed animals and border-line gruesome depictions of cruelty is seductive in itself; the material won't appeal to everyone, but I have confidence that you know whether you can handle messed up stuff such as this or not.
Animation: 6.5/10
Moments of passivity exude a beautiful atmosphere comprised mainly of the endearing Kuma-san parading throughout sceneries complimented with children overwhelmed with excitement and joy. The fairly poor production values aren't noteworthy until actual movement is introduced to replace the still images with action sequences, but the otherwise charming qualities of the visual section is enough to compensate for temporary flaws. The character designs, for example, may hover dangerously close over the "too simplistic" category, but are nonetheless inviting and beautiful; the mysterious doll with vivid eyes and gorgeous clothing is a grand example.
Sound: 8/10
The genuinely harrowing combination between jolly tunes and the sinister melodies of a music box is more than enough to establish an enchanting symphony of diversity. As if the creators somehow foresaw and decided to exploit my ambivalence towards the target audience of the OVA, the musical score by the end is creepily effective at reminding me how terrifying circuses truly can be, especially when enhanced by the presence of a threatening and bloodthirsty clown.
The voice actors feature some fairly standardized performances, not only in terms of their actual competence but also since the lines they're supposed to utter are invaded by cheesiness. We have, among several entries, the somewhat favorable and occasionally obnoxious little boy who preaches on about the significance of justice and friendship, all while sounding painfully cliché. The acting from Kuma-san's side on the other hand is delivered with confidence; constantly confused and with a tone that derives even the tiniest shred of personality from his verbal communication, he stands out both as a mysterious and memorable character.
Characters: 7/10
Having carefully sneaked up on the subject in previous paragraphs like a phantom in the night, there are but a few things left to say within the "characters" section. A common denominator among OVA's tend to be futile attempts at compelling characterization; there's hardly even enough time at hand to feature character development in any form when you're dealing with just one episode or two. This is where Super Kuma-san contradicts its stereotypical peers with exhilarating glee through the introduction, development and polishing of several fine and memorable characters. Although you only get to witness their routines for about twenty minutes, you somehow feel like their struggles to escape feelings of remorse are attempts you've followed and experienced for quite some time; as the golden and universal rule of OVA's clearly states: if you lack the time to make your characters grow, introduce flashbacks and plot devices that mesmerize the viewers into believing they've followed the characters loyally throughout many earlier adventures.
Overall: 6.5/10
Beautiful yet ugly, vivid yet muted; almost every imaginable adjective used to describe Super Kuma-san would be just as appropriate as its complete opposite. Designed with unknown intentions but with an obvious affinity for disturbance, this often overlooked gem among obscurities is unlikely to charm you off your feet, but is almost guaranteed to distort your facial features into an expression of perplexity. Mediocrity has never been this memorable.

"The Hobbit" by J.R.R. Tolkien is one book. But "The Hobbit" by Peter Jackson will now be three — count 'em, three — movies. Jackson and his team had been planning to turn "The Hobbit" into two films, but yesterday Jackson revealed in a Facebook post that "two films will become three."
"We know how much of the story of Bilbo Baggins, the Wizard Gandalf, the Dwarves of Erebor, the rise of the Necromancer, and the Battle of Dol Guldur will remain untold if we do not take this chance. The richness of the story of 'The Hobbit,' as well as some of the related material in the appendices of 'The Lord of the Rings,' allows us to tell the full story of the adventures of Bilbo Baggins and the part he played in the sometimes dangerous, but at all times exciting, history of Middle-earth."
That announcement was met with a reaction similarly split between excitement and danger: Jackson, a veritable wizard of special effects and epic fantasy, achieved great things with his first "Lord of the Rings" trilogy, and it's certainly conceivable he will again. On the other hand, "The Lord of the Rings" was three novels before it was three movies — and even if there is enough material in "The Hobbit" for a trilogy, recreating a famous book shot-for-shot, scene-for-scene on the big screen in exacting detail is not always the best way to make an adaptation.
One of the more interesting thinkpieces about Jackson's potentially risky decision came from Kyle Buchanan at Vulture, who used the expansion of "The Hobbit" as an opportunity to muse on the subject of directors and franchises. Have A-list directors, he wonders, become too attached to their franchises?
"Jackson, [James] Cameron, and [Michael] Bay are part of a very small, very elite group of directors who can get just about any movie green-lit, and yet they're devoting so much of their time to more of the same. Wouldn't we rather see what new creative endeavors they could come up with, while they still have the wherewithal and studio support to do it? Even more worrisome is the trend of shooting so many of the sequels back-to-back… while there are certainly financial incentives to shooting all those movies in giant career clumps, there's something lost creatively when a director single-mindedly dedicates himself to one thing without taking the time to step away and reassess his franchise."
I'm not sure I've ever heard this argument before, that focusing exclusively on a franchise yields poor results because even the best directors need to step away from their material in order to find new ideas and new perspectives on old concepts. Certainly there aren't too many examples — except "The Lord of the Rings" — of filmmakers shooting an entire franchise in one big gulp and coming out the other side a creative success. If nothing else, the reaction to one movie enables course correction on the next; "The Matrix Revolutions" might have looked a lot different if the Wachowskis had made it after the tepid response to "The Matrix Reloaded" rather than before.
As his examples, Buchanan cites Steven Spielberg bouncing between the Indiana Jones franchise and more personal projects like "The Color Purple" and "Empire of the Sun," and Robert Zemeckis sandwiching "Who Framed Roger Rabbit" between two slices of "Back to the Future." But while it's true that those series turned out better than, say, the "Transformers" saga, it's worth remembering that unlike their successors, they weren't conceived as franchises — they were conceived as movies. Though "Back to the Future" ends on a cliffhanger, Zemeckis and co-writer Bob Gale freely admit they never intended to make a sequel — if they had, they say, they would have never put Marty McFly's girlfriend Jennifer into the DeLorean as it speeds off into "Part II."
Spielberg, Zemeckis, Cameron, and the rest told their stories, and if audience demand and creative impulse were good enough, then they made a sequel. Today, sequels are a foregone conclusion even for unpopular tentpoles. Franchising isn't just a business model at this point; it's a storytelling model too. Many movies, like this summer's "The Amazing Spider-Man" specifically omit crucial plot details on the assumption that they can be paid off in later movies. All sequels, good and bad, are designed to make money. But too many modern sequels feel more concerned with ensuring a good return on investment for the studio rather than the audience. Even if directors haven't gotten too attached to their franchises, Hollywood certainly has.

The Simpsons has always been at the forefront of pop-culture parody over the past two decades, so it should come as no surprise that last night's episode of the show put HBO's Game of Thrones into its crosshairs. The show used Game of Throne's opening title sequence as the basis for its legendary couch gag, complete with some great animation and enough little details to keep the hardcore Thrones fans happy.
Instead of using the show for joke fodder, this couch gag is a loving tribute to one of the freshest series currently on cable. And the timing couldn't be more perfect as Game of Thrones: The Complete First Season will be hitting DVD and Blu-ray tomorrow and with season two of the show ready to premiere in less than a month.

Using ideas based on the SHERRIE LEVINE: MAYHEM exhibition, which was concurrently on view, as well as mid-twentieth-century art movements as entry points, teens worked with Corey McCorkle to create works that examined themes of originality, appropriation, temporality, and site-specificity in relation to visual art. McCorkle's own work incorporates sculpture, architecture, installation, and traditional documentary film-making techniques. His practice responds to and acts on its environment and he will often create objects or site specific installations within exhibition galleries and public spaces.
McCorkle asked YI Artists to propose a new location, configuration, and purpose for an eighty-two year-old bridge in Perry County, Kentucky that had recently been deemed "functionally obsolete." YI Artists created drawings, schematics, water-colors, and writing to support their ideas which included using the bridge as an outdoor park and exhibition space and turning the raw steel of the bridge into large-scale public sculpture.

I made biodiesel. I used methanol, lye, some sort of vegetable oil, 2 bottles, a glass jar, a funnel, a spoon and a blender/plastic bottle. I worked with ...
You need: methanol 200mL (ex: heet), lye (3-5 grams), type of used vegetable oil (ex: waste vegetable oil or peanut oil), funnel, 2 1.5-2 liter bottle, plastic spoon, ...
Mix the lye and methanol until the lye is fully dissolved.
Add the methanol and lye to the vegetable oil into the blender/bottle to mix for 20 minutes.
Let the mixed liquids sit in the bottle for 24 hours. When done, glycerin will be in the bottom of bottle.
Use the funnel to separate the biodiesel into the other bottle and leave the glycerin in the first bottle.
If you did the steps correctly, you should have a glass jar full of glycerin and a bottle of biodiesel.

Sometimes after injury or a long illness, the primary organs of the body no longer work properly without support. Your doctor may tell you that these organs will not repair themselves.
Medical care to prolong life can keep you alive when these organs stop working well.
Treatments to extend life can include the use of machines. This equipment does the work of the body organ. Examples include:
If you are near the end of your life or you have an illness that will not improve, you can choose what kind of treatment you want to receive.
You should know that removing the life support equipment does not end life: the illness or the injury is the cause of the end of life.
These can be hard choices for you and those who are close to you. There is no hard and fast rule about what you may choose. People's opinions and choices often change over time.
Talk to your health care providers about your choices. Other steps you can take to make sure your wishes are followed are:
As your life or health changes, you may also change your health care decisions. You can change or cancel an advanced care directive at any time.
You may serve as a health care agent or proxy for someone else. In that role you may have to make the decision to start or remove life support machines. It is a very hard decision to make.

The room was OK, but the host was unavailable for 2 days, she didn't answer the phone calls and messages, even those by Wimdu. Finally we could reach by phone a woman who didn't speak English, only Russian, but she somehow understood that we wanted the key to the room and met us there.
There was a mistake in the communication system - the Wimdu booking site refused our booking, but later on the reservation was confirmed and we were charged for 2 nights, although we stayed there only one night. We wanted to discuss this with the host right on the first day, but she was unavailable. Last morning she wrote us that as we would get refund for the first night, we had to leave the room by 12 noon, couldn't leave our backpacks there, although we had a late flight and asked her. Later she refused to Wimdu to share the costs of the cancelled night and wanted to get the full amount what was taken off our account. We find it a very unfriendly way as we tried to clarify the situation and till the last minute we didn't know whether we can get in the room or not, although is was paid.
This property is excellent for those who wish to live close to all amenities. We were happy with the Morrison's nearby, the Westfield shopping Mall and the Stratford Centre. Apartment had nice restaurants close by. The Metro was 5 minutes walk. My husband and I liked the easy accessibility to all these areas and eateries.
The kitchen had all basics including refrigerator, pots, pans, cutleries. One could cook breakfast or dinner at ease.
The only disappointment was the shared bathroom which I did not expect to have. On the website, I thought I read clearly that there will be an attached bathroom but it did not clarify that toilets and bathroom will be shared.
Also, sheets and quilt covers need to be looking and smelling more fresh and bright. Room ambience good. Had good furnitures. Rosi, came to deliver the keys on time. Overall good for first timers like us in London.
It was a wonderful stay at rosi house.... the room was very tidy and well organized... rosi was very friendly, cooperative and supportive... we had a enjoyable stay over there... i would recommend a plus ++++(****) Again to stay over there. The transportation was very near... easy to reach central london in 20 min... ( good underground train facilities and bus services nearby) the ambient in the room was very good and attractive... kitchen was open to all to have good breakfast and bathroom was very clean... i would like to visit again... the neighbourhood was very friendly... no threats in the neighbourhood..... the street was very calm over the night to get good sleep... greetings ashok

Very professional, always available to help and offering solutions to particular requests and extremely practical. The place is always clean, ready by the time I arrive and usually the houses are very quiet. I keep coming back each time I go to London...
