I am running Ubuntu 12.10 with ISPConfig 220.127.116.11. I am trying to setup my ISPs nameservers but resolv.conf is never changing. It's stuck on nameserver 127.0.0.1 I tried editing /etc/network/interfaces and inserted dns-nameservers xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx then resolvconf -u and then ifdown eth0 && ifup eth0. No result I tried editing /etc/resolvconf/resolvconf.d/base with same parameters, again no result. I tried disabling resolvconf updates as well as edit the dhcpclient.conf in both /etc/dhcp and /etc/dhcp3 with the prepent-domain again no result. I'm already frustrated enough and cannot think of anything else to try. I tried google but all the solutions proposed are mentioned above and don't work. Any help is appreciated
Update: I have removed /etc/resolv.conf and run dpkg-reconfigure resolvconf and answered yes to all of the options. The result was that now /etc/resolv.conf is correctly created as a symlink, but still not able to update it as I want to
Does the NIC have the public IP4 address. I never used Comcast name server IPs when the NIC is the public facing IP. Post the interfaces file... another set of eyes...
could it be because you have you NIC configured to get IP from DHCP server ? if so ... dhclient will automaticly update resolv.conf no matter what you've set manually. by the way /etc/resolv.conf is a symlink for /etc/resolvconf/run/resolv.conf if i'm not mistaken so i guess you can solve your problem by removing the symlink and create a normal conf file or add a write protect bit to resolv.conf after you've modified it Code: chattr +i /etc/resolv.conf
TiTex & Pititis thanks for your answers. TiTex my interface is set to static with an added dns-nameservers line as man resolvconf states. dhcp is not enabled. I want to make this work the proper way as I do a lot of update && distro upgrades and it keeps breaking up if everything is not done properly. Pititis I tried what you suggested. Unfortunately nothing is added in /etc/resolv.conf. It's stuck at nameservers 127.0.0.1 any other suggestions?
One more time... Post the interfaces file. Odds are there is a simple error in it. If nothing else I will cut-n-paste it and try it in a server running here.
# This file describes the network interfaces available on your system # and how to activate them. For more information, see interfaces(5). # The loopback network interface auto lo iface lo inet loopback # The primary network interface auto eth0 iface eth0 inet static address 172.16.2.100 netmask 255.255.255.0 gateway 172.16.2.1 network 172.16.2.0 broadcast 172.16.2.255 dns-nameservers 188.8.131.52 18.104.22.168
Try this The file looks correct assuming the IPs are right. I always add a comma between the IPs after dns-nameservers. You could try the Google nameservers of 126.96.36.199, 22.214.171.124 You can try this: http://hardc0l2e.wordpress.com/2012...v-conf-127-0-0-1-implementation-with-dnsmasq/ ... and on some Zoneminder installs when moving the hard drive to a new physical CPU I have had problems get the "new" network cards to work properly and find that if I delete the /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules and then power down (not restart) the system the two cars are then detected as eth0 and eth1. I know that this is not the specific thing you face but that file seems to have some hold-over on the interfaces configutation. Please repost what you find.
Thanks for your suggestion. Unfortunately neither the comma between IPs in /etc/network/interfaces work neither the post with the modification of NetworkManager. as I am running the server edition of Ubuntu and not LTS so network manager is not installed
local nameserver I think this is caused by the way resolvconf treats local nameservers. Checking the man page, I noticed this: ----- "[...] TRUNCATE_NAMESERVER_LIST_AFTER_LOOPBACK_ADDRESS If set to "yes" then the libc script will include no more nameserver addresses after the first nameserver address that is a loopback address. (In IPv4 a loopback address is any one that starts with "127.". In IPv6 the loopback address is "::1".) The advantage of truncating the nameserver list after a loopback address is that doing so inhibits unnecessary changes to resolv.conf and thus reduces the number of instances in which the update-libc.d/ scripts have to be run. When an interface is brought up or down the local caching nameserver that listens on the loopback address is still informed of the change and adapts accordingly; the clients of the resolver which use the local caching nameserver do not need to be notified of the change. A disadvantage of this mode of operation is that applications have no secondary or tertiary nameserver address to fall back on should the local caching nameserver crash. Insofar as a local nameserver crash can be regarded as an unlikely event, this is a relatively minor disadvantage. Set to "no" to disable truncation. The default is "yes". A deprecated synonym for this variable is TRUNCATE_NAMESERVER_LIST_AFTER_127."

This chapter describes the usage and semantics of LOBs required for application development, and covers various techniques for working with LOBs.
Most of the discussions in this chapter regarding persistent LOBs assume that you are dealing with existing LOBs in tables. The task of creating tables with LOB columns is typically performed by your database administrator.
See Also:
Chapter 4, "Using Oracle SecureFiles LOBs" for creating LOBs using the SecureFiles paradigm
Chapter 11, "LOB Storage" for storage parameters used in creating LOBs
This chapter contains these topics:
The techniques you use when accessing a cell in a LOB column differ depending on the state of the given cell. A cell in a LOB Column can be in one of the following states:
The table cell is created, but the cell holds no locator or value.
A LOB instance with a locator exists in the cell, but it has no value. The length of the LOB is zero.
A LOB instance with a locator and a value exists in the cell.
You can lock a row containing a LOB to prevent other database users from writing to the LOB during a transaction. To lock a row containing a LOB, specify the FOR UPDATE
clause when you select the row. While the row is locked, other users cannot lock or update the LOB, until you end your transaction.
The LOB APIs include operations that enable you to explicitly open and close a LOB instance. You can open and close a persistent LOB instance of any type: BLOB
, or BFILE
. You open a LOB to achieve one or both of the following results:
Open the LOB in read-only mode.
This ensures that the LOB (both the LOB locator and LOB value) cannot be changed in your session until you explicitly close the LOB. For example, you can open the LOB to ensure that the LOB is not changed by some other part of your program while you are using the LOB in a critical operation. After you perform the operation, you can then close the LOB.
Open the LOB in read write/mode—persistent BLOB
, or NCLOB
instances only.
Opening a LOB in read write mode defers any index maintenance on the LOB column until you close the LOB. Opening a LOB in read write mode is only useful if there is an extensible index on the LOB column and you do not want the database to perform index maintenance every time you write to the LOB. This technique can increase the performance of your application if you are doing several write operations on the LOB while it is open.
If you open a LOB, then you must close the LOB at some point later in your session. This is the only requirement for an open LOB. While a LOB instance is open, you can perform as many operations as you want on the LOB—provided the operations are allowed in the given mode.
See Also:
"Opening Persistent LOBs with the OPEN and CLOSE Interfaces" for details on usage of these APIs.There are two techniques that you can use to access and modify LOB values:
You can perform bind and define operations on CLOB
and BLOB
columns in C applications using the data interface for LOBs in OCI. Doing so, enables you to insert or select out data in a LOB column without using a LOB locator as follows:
Using a bind variable associated with a LOB column to insert character data into a CLOB
, or RAW
data into a BLOB
Using a define operation to define an output buffer in your application that holds character data selected from a CLOB
, or RAW
data selected from a BLOB
See Also:
Chapter 20, "Data Interface for Persistent LOBs" for more information on implicit assignment of LOBs to other data types.The value of a LOB instance stored in the database can be accessed through a LOB locator, a reference to the location of the LOB value. Database tables store only locators in CLOB
and BFILE
columns. Note the following with respect to LOB locators and values:
To access or manipulate a LOB value, you pass the LOB locator to the various LOB APIs.
A LOB locator can be assigned to any LOB instance of the same type.
The characteristics of a LOB as being temporary or persistent have nothing to do with the locator. The characteristics of temporary or persistent apply only to the LOB instance.
There are differences between the semantics of locators for LOB types BLOB
, and NCLOB
on one hand, and the semantics of locators for the BFILE
type on the other hand:
For LOB types BLOB
, and NCLOB
, the LOB column stores a locator to the LOB value. Each LOB instance has its own distinct LOB locator and also a distinct copy of the LOB value.
For initialized BFILE
columns, the row stores a locator to the external operating system file that holds the value of the BFILE
. Each BFILE
instance in a given row has its own distinct locator; however, two different rows can contain a BFILE
locator that points to the same operating system file.
Regardless of where the value of a LOB is stored, a locator is stored in the table row of any initialized LOB column. Note that when the term locator is used without an identifying prefix term, it refers to both LOB locators and BFILE
locators. Also, when you select a LOB from a table, the LOB returned is always a temporary LOB. For more information on working with locators for temporary LOBs, see "LOBs Returned from SQL Functions".
The table print_media
of the Oracle Database Sample Schema PM
, is used in many examples in this documentation and is defined as:
CREATE TABLE print_media ( product_id NUMBER(6) , ad_id NUMBER(6) , ad_composite BLOB , ad_sourcetext CLOB , ad_finaltext CLOB , ad_fltextn NCLOB , ad_textdocs_ntab textdoc_tab , ad_photo BLOB , ad_graphic BFILE , ad_header adheader_typ ) NESTED TABLE ad_textdocs_ntab STORE AS textdocs_nestedtab;
See Also:
"Creating a Table Containing One or More LOB Columns" for the details of howprint_media
and its associated tables and files are created.Any LOB instance that is NULL
does not have a locator. Before you can pass a LOB instance to any LOB API routine, the instance must contain a locator. For example, you can select a NULL
LOB from a row, but you cannot pass the instance to the PL/SQL DBMS_LOB.READ procedure. The following sub-sections describe how to initialize a persistent LOB column and how to initialize a BFILE
Before you can start writing data to a persistent LOB using the supported programmatic environment interfaces (PL/SQL, OCI, OCCI, Pro*C/C++, Pro*COBOL, Visual Basic, Java, or OLEDB), the LOB column/attribute must be made non-NULL
, that is, it must contain a locator.
You can accomplish this by initializing the persistent LOB to empty in an INSERT
statement using the functions EMPTY_BLOB
for BLOB
s or EMPTY_CLOB
for CLOB
s and NCLOB
You can use SQL to populate a LOB column with data even if it contains aNULL
value.See Also:
Chapter 11, "LOB Storage" for more information on initializing LOB columns.Running the EMPTY_BLOB()
or EMPTY_CLOB()
function in and of itself does not raise an exception. However, using a LOB locator that was set to empty to access or manipulate the LOB value in any PL/SQL DBMS_LOB
or OCI function raises an exception.
Valid places where empty LOB locators may be used include the VALUES
clause of an INSERT
statement and the SET
clause of an UPDATE
See Also:
"Directory Objects" for details of CREATE DIRECTORY
and BFILENAME
statement in Oracle Database Reference. for more information about creating a directory object
Oracle Database SQL Language Reference, CREATE DIRECTORY statement
Character strings are inserted using the default character set for the instance.The following INSERT
statement in the PM
, table print_media
Populates ad_sourcetext
with the character string 'my Oracle',
Sets ad_composite
, ad_finaltext
, and ad_fltextn
to an empty value,
Sets ad_photo
to NULL
, and
Initializes ad_graphic
to point to the file my_picture
located under the logical directory my_directory_object
CREATE OR REPLACE DIRECTORY my_directory_object AS 'oracle/work/tklocal'; INSERT INTO print_media VALUES (1726, 1, EMPTY_BLOB(), 'my Oracle', EMPTY_CLOB(), EMPTY_CLOB(), NULL, NULL, BFILENAME('my_directory_object', 'my_picture'), NULL);
Similarly, the LOB attributes for the ad_header
column in print_media
can be initialized to NULL
, empty, or a character/raw literal, which is shown in the following statement:
INSERT INTO print_media (product_id, ad_id, ad_header) VALUES (1726, 1, adheader_typ('AD FOR ORACLE', sysdate, 'Have Grid', EMPTY_BLOB()));
See Also:
"Inserting a Row by Initializing a LOB Locator Bind Variable"
"OCILobLocator Pointer Assignment" for details on LOB locator semantics in OCI
Before you can access BFILE
values using LOB APIs, the BFILE
column or attribute must be made non-NULL
. You can initialize the BFILE
column to point to an external operating system file by using the BFILENAME
See Also:
"Accessing BFILEs" for more information on initializing BFILE columns.You can access a LOB instance using the following techniques:
Support for columns that use LOB data types is built into many SQL functions. This support enables you to use SQL semantics to access LOB columns in SQL. In most cases, you can use the same SQL semantics on a LOB column that you would use on a VARCHAR2
See Also:
For details on SQL semantics support for LOBs, see Chapter 16, "SQL Semantics and LOBs".You can select a LOB directly into CHAR
or RAW
buffers using the LONG-to-LOB API in OCI and PL/SQL. In the following PL/SQL example, ad_finaltext
is selected into a VARCHAR2
buffer final_ad
DECLARE final_ad VARCHAR(32767); BEGIN SELECT ad_finaltext INTO final_ad FROM print_media WHERE product_id = 2056 and ad_id = 12001 ; /* PUT_LINE can only output up to 255 characters at a time */ ... DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE(final_ad); /* more calls to read final_ad */ ... END;
See Also:
For more details on accessing LOBs using the data interface, see Chapter 20, "Data Interface for Persistent LOBs".You can access and manipulate a LOB instance by passing the LOB locator to the LOB APIs supplied with the database. An extensive set of LOB APIs is provided with each supported programmatic environment. In OCI, a LOB locator is mapped to a locator pointer which is used to access the LOB value.
In all environments, including OCI, the LOB APIs operate on the LOB value implicitly—there is no requirement to dereference the LOB locator.See Also:
"OCILobLocator Pointer Assignment" for details on LOB locator semantics in OCI
This section provides details on LOB rules and restrictions.
LOB columns are subject to the following rules and restrictions:
You cannot specify a LOB as a primary key column.
Oracle Database has limited support for remote LOBs. Remote LOBs are supported in three ways.
1. Create table as select or insert as select.
CREATE TABLE t AS SELECT * FROM table1@remote_site;
INSERT INTO t SELECT * FROM table1@remote_site;
UPDATE t SET lobcol = (SELECT lobcol FROM table1@remote_site);
INSERT INTO table1@remote_site SELECT * FROM local_table;
UPDATE table1@remote_site SET lobcol = (SELECT lobcol FROM local_table);
DELETE FROM table1@remote_site <WHERE clause involving non_lob_columns>
In statements structured like the preceding examples, only standalone LOB columns are allowed in the select list.
2. Functions on remote LOBs returning scalars. SQL and PL/SQL functions having a LOB parameter and returning a scalar data type are supported. Other SQL functions and DBMS_LOB
APIs are not supported for use with remote LOB columns. For example, the following statement is supported:
CREATE TABLE tab AS SELECT DBMS_LOB.GETLENGTH@dbs2(clob_col) len FROM tab@dbs2; CREATE TABLE tab AS SELECT LENGTH(clob_col) len FROM tab@dbs2;
However, the following statement is not supported because DBMS_LOB.SUBSTR
returns a LOB:
CREATE TABLE tab AS SELECT DBMS_LOB.SUBSTR(clob_col) from tab@dbs2;
3. Data Interface for remote LOBs. You can insert a character or binary buffer into a remote CLOB
or BLOB
, and select a remote CLOB
or BLOB
into a character or binary buffer. For example (in PL/SQL):
SELECT clobcol1, type1.blobattr INTO varchar_buf1, raw_buf2 FROM table1@remote_site; INSERT INTO table1@remotesite (clobcol1, type1.blobattr) VALUES varchar_buf1, raw_buf2; INSERT INTO table1@remotesite (lobcol) VALUES ('test'); UPDATE table1 SET lobcol = 'xxx';
These are the only supported syntax involving LOBs in remote tables. No other usage is supported.
Clusters cannot contain LOBs, either as key or nonkey columns.
The following data structures are supported only as temporary instances. You cannot store these instances in database tables:
of any LOB type
of any type containing a LOB type, such as an object type with a LOB attribute
of any LOB type
of any type containing a LOB
You cannot specify LOB columns in the ORDER
clause of a query, or in the GROUP
clause of a query or in an aggregate function.
You cannot specify a LOB column in a SELECT
or SELECT
statement or in a join. However, you can specify a LOB attribute of an object type column in a SELECT
statement or in a query that uses the UNION
or MINUS
set operator if the column's object type has a MAP
or ORDER
function defined on it.
The first (INITIAL
) extent of a LOB segment must contain at least three database blocks.
The minimum extent size is 14 blocks. For an 8K block size (the default), this is equivalent to 112K.
When creating an AFTER UPDATE
DML trigger, you cannot specify a LOB column in the UPDATE
You cannot specify a LOB column as part of an index key. However, you can specify a LOB column in the indextype specification of a domain index. In addition, Oracle Text lets you define an index on a CLOB
In an INSERT
operation, you can bind up to 4000 bytes of data to LOB columns and attributes.
If a table has both LONG
and LOB columns, you cannot bind more than 4000 bytes of data to both the LONG
and LOB columns in the same SQL statement. However, you can bind more than 4000 bytes of data to either the LONG
or the LOB column.
For a table on which you have defined anAFTER
DML trigger, if you use OCI functions or DBMS_LOB
package to change the value of a LOB column or the LOB attribute of an object type column, the database does not fire the DML trigger.See Also:
Chapter 4, "Using Oracle SecureFiles LOBs" for the SecureFiles capabilities (encryption, compression, and deduplication).
"Restrictions for LOBs in Partitioned Index-Organized Tables"
Chapter 18, "Migrating Columns from LONGs to LOBs" under "Migrating Applications from LONGs to LOBs", describes LONG to LOB migration limitations for clustered tables, replication, triggers, domain indexes, and function-based indexes.
"Unsupported Use of LOBs in SQL" for restrictions on SQL semantics.
For details on the INITIAL extent of a LOB segment, see "Restriction on First Extent of a LOB Segment" .
LOBs in partitioned index-organized tables are subject to other restrictions. See "Restrictions for LOBs in Partitioned Index-Organized Tables" for more information.
Other general LOB restrictions include the following:
In SQL Loader, A field read from a LOB cannot be used as an argument to a clause. See "Database Utilities for Loading Data into LOBs".
Session migration is not supported for BFILE
s in shared server (multithreaded server) mode. This implies that operations on open BFILE
s can persist beyond the end of a call to a shared server. In shared server sessions, BFILE
operations are bound to one shared server, they cannot migrate from one server to another.
Case-insensitive searches on CLOB
columns often do not succeed. For example, to do a case-insensitive search on a CLOB
ALTER SESSION SET NLS_COMP=LINGUISTIC; ALTER SESSION SET NLS_SORT=BINARY_CI; SELECT * FROM ci_test WHERE LOWER(clob_col) LIKE 'aa%';
The select fails without the LOWER
function. Oracle Text does do case-insensitive searches. Use DBMS_LOB.INSTR()
as another alternative. See Chapter 16, "SQL Semantics and LOBs".

Amazing Headphones.
I 1st found out about these cans when I walked in on a new audio shop in our local mall. They had a lot of cans and IEMS available for audition so I listened to one. I was blown away with the detail and just about everything, there are also some Sennheisers there but these really stand out for me I couldn't put them down. My first thought was these must have costs more than those Senns but when I asked the salesman he told me it only costs around 40$. Wow! Really? So I researched about the brand and found out it was really praised very well here and other audio sites. Long story short, I bought 1 the next day.

Minnesota's Department of Natural Resources (DNR) wildlife researchers successfully launched a study of the North Shore's moose population. Unfortunately, moose in the area have been dying off rapidly and wildlife experts are scratching their heads. It's been determined that hunting and natural predators can't account for the population's rate of decline. They managed to attach 31 moose with GPS tracking collars, but the frigid weather was a significant obstacle. On Monday, January 21st, the ground crew were facing daytime wind chills as cold as 54 below zero. Temperatures didn't raise above zero until Thursday, Jan. 24th.
"We started the project last week near Grand Marais during a four-day stretch of extreme cold," Lou Cornicelli said, DNR wildlife research manager. "Flight safety guidelines dictate no work can be performed below 20 degrees below zero. So despite the fact the helicopter was grounded for most of the first three days, we successfully collared and now are tracking nearly a third of the moose we plan to study."
The study will span multiple years, hoping to track 100 moose total with GPS devices. "When you watch a collared moose disappear back into the brush, you hope data will help unravel the mortality mystery that is puzzling wildlife managers," said Erika Butler, DNR wildlife veterinarian. . "The technology we helped develop for this project will be of use to other researchers." The tracking collars are also attached to complex sensors, which can detect weather, heartbeat and much more.
"Signals sent from the 31 moose we have collared as of Monday afternoon are already providing us with their precise location," Butler explained. "Sensors are recording the air temperature around them and, in some cases, their internal body temperature and whether their heart is beating. If a moose dies, we will receive a text message so that researchers stationed in the field can get there within 24 hours to allow for a necropsy and other tests to better understand the cause of death."

Actually spotting a jaguar in the Cockscomb Basin Wildlife Sanctuary. The chances are always slim (though better than elsewhere) because this magnificent animal is always wary and conceals himself in the leafy tropical forest. But what a result if it happens!

Savouring the delicious, juicy, freshly-caught and relatively cheap lobster on the island of Caye Caulker. It's worth getting out of your hammock for...
English-speaking, Caribbean-flavoured Belize isn't part of Latin America, but is no less beguiling for that. There's a Regent Street among the wobbly wooden houses-on-stilts of Belize City; a transport company called Batty Bus; exotic, stylish hotels inspired by their owner Francis Ford Coppola; virtually unexplored Mayan ruins stifled by rainforest and some of the best dive sites in the world. Not to mention coral islands with sugary beaches sheltering divine plantation house resorts. I find something new and quirky every time I go back there....

"There were so many highlights, but undoubtedly the most memorable part was seeing jaguars near Chan Chich on two consecutive days, and even being able to take photos of the second one. This was the main aim of our trip, having failed to reach Chan Chich in October 2008 because of flooding."

"We saw a massive variety of animals, insects and fish between the rainforest and the reef and exploring these environments with knowledgeable guides was a pleasure. Whether it was hummingbirds buzzing overhead at dinner, a boa constrictor crossing the road, a lucky glimpse of a majestic jaguar or a green sea turtle grazing on the reef it was difficult to pick a highlight moment!"

Her research addresses socially and morally complex issues in women's health and reproductive medicine, with a focus on how women and men assign meaning to reproductive events. A central goal of her work is to inform and reframe debates based on the views of the women and men most profoundly affected by them, and to appropriately weight these individuals' interests in shaping reproductive health care.
After finishing medical school and residency in obstetrics and gynecology, she completed the Greenwall Fellowship in Bioethics and Health Policy at Georgetown and Johns Hopkins Universities, and spent ten years on the faculty at Duke before joining the Department of Social Medicine and the Center for Bioethics at UNC. Dr. Lyerly co-founded, with Maggie Little, the Obstetrics and Gynecology Risk Research Group, which brings together experts from medical epidemiology, anthropology, obstetrics and gynecology, philosophy, bioethics, gender theory and medical humanities for research on how risk is assessed and managed in the context of pregnancy. Together with Ruth Faden and Maggie Little, she also co-founded the Second Wave Initiative, a project aimed at addressing women's health needs during pregnancy through responsible inclusion of pregnant women (and their interests) in biomedical research, and is PI on the NIH-funded PHASES Project to advance equitable inclusion of pregnant women in HIV research and co-PI on a Wellcome Trust funded project to advance equitable inclusion of pregnant women research on Zika and other public health emergencies. She has addressed a range of topics in reproductive medicine, including stem cell research and frozen embryo disposition, miscarriage, maternal-fetal surgery, and vaginal birth after cesarean. She has recently completed a book, A Good Birth (Penguin Group/USA), reporting the findings of the Good Birth Project, aimed at describing what constitutes a "good birth" from the perspectives of birthing women themselves.
Dr. Lyerly has been supported by the National Institutes of Health, the Wellcome Trust, and the Greenwall Foundation including the Faculty Scholars Program, and her work has appeared in numerous journals, including Science, the Hastings Center Report, and The American Journal of Public Health, as well as the New York Times and Huffington Post. She was the 2007-2009 Chair of the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists Committee on Ethics, and Co-chair of the 2009 Program Committee for the American Society of Bioethics and Humanities. She serves on the March of Dimes National Bioethics Committee and the National Institutes of Health Advisory Committee to the Director's Working Group on Stem Cell Research.

text: Terror flies at 30,000 feet in this tense action thriller. Jeremy Barrett (Michael Harris) is a brilliant but unbalanced criminal genius who, while being transported to a penal facility aboard a commercial airliner, breaks free and takes control of the jet, holding the passengers hostage, blowing a hole in the cockpit, and threatening to crash the plane into a heavily populated area of a major city if his demands aren't met. Barrett may have met his match, however, in Nick Halton (James Russo), a former Navy SEAL and current FBI agent who is willing to take the potentially deadly assignment of being dropped by helicopter into the runaway jet to disarm Barrett and bring the jet safely to the ground. Sonic Impact also features Ice-T, Mel Harris, and Brittany Daniel. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

Masculinity is probably the most important criteria women would use to describe a man as sexy. However, we have to look a little deeper than his masculine physique. Yes, masculinity goes much deeper than the near perfect male physique. Masculinity can be found in the way he confidently, but not arrogantly, struts across the room and gives that quick sexy glance. It is the way he calmly and confidently says "Hello" that causes your heart to sink after that initial glance. It's how he looks in his clothes. It's how he smells. Masculinity, like sexy is a complete package.
Read My Husband's "Other Woman"
Personality is just as important as masculinity. He must possess some level of swagger. He has to have a sense of humor and be able to hold an intelligent conversation. Some women prefer "bad boys." They are drawn to that tough guy, who is willing to do battle persona. Some women prefer the guy who will walk away from a fight intelligently, leaving the other guy feeling like an ass. Either way, one's personality must be well defined and a little complex. Arrogance is usually not acceptable.
Well-rounded, intelligent men are usually very sexy. These men are well read and as such, can discuss a variety of topics without the air of arrogance. They are willing to educate and be educated. They can stimulate the mind and other things as well. Intelligence is very sexy.
Eye contact is also very important. This is the first line of communication that he has with a woman and it must be special for one to consider him sexy. Whether it is a casual glance followed by a charming smile or a mysterious smile, women love to be noticed by men. For most women this is sexy. Sexy eyes and pretty teeth have been known to cause women to fall in love (lust) immediately.
Men who dress well are sexy. He does not have to be decked out in designer threads, but he must be well groomed, exhibiting his own style that brings out his personality. I believe that most women will agree that blue jeans can be very sexy on a man. Being well groomed also means having a nice smell that lingers in her mind long after he has left the building. This could be a fresh clean smell or the smell of his favorite fragrance, either way it leaves a lasting impression.

So, two years in prison for the members of Pussy Riot as a consequence of their foul and insulting behaviour inside a church. The western world is outraged and takes the severity of the sentence as evidence that Russia is a totalitarian state where everyone does as Putin wants. Thank God we're not like that over here, huh? We live in a democracy where one is free to lampoon all religious belief without punitive action descending upon us by the state.
Which will be news to Andrew Ryan, among others – he was sentenced to 70 days in jail for setting fire to a copy of the Koran. And the two men who received one year in prison for spray painting a poppy, on the side of a mosque. And then there's Abu Hamza al Masri, the hook-handed cleric, who is still in prison for having said stuff with which the majority of us disagreed. Accused of inciting racial and religious hatred he has now been in Belmarsh for EIGHT YEARS.
And how about the naked rambler, kept in solitary confinement (largely) for six years simply for walking about with no clothes on?
Such monumental hypocrisy.

We were in a great mood to celebrate and to grasp a cold glass of — anything.
Our hands had been heated from the applause for Renee Fleming and the entire company of Verdi's "La Traviata." It was L.A. Opera's 20th anni launching presentation and part of the 20th season's opening weekend celebration. (Sunday was Verdi's "Don Carlo.")
The Opening Night Gala in the Music Center Plaza was under a full moon which accented the glamour of the ladies in their finest for the special occasion.
"Opera is an important part of our culture — unfortunately it is an expensive part of our culture," announced Marc L. Stern, Chairman and CEO of L.A. Opera. But he was happy to note that the Company has ended its fourth season in the black. He credited it to the Opera's General Director Placido Domingo.
A sign pointing to another potentially financially successful season is an upcoming DVD of this presentation of "La Traviata" directed by Placido's wife Marta Domingo and starring the amazing Fleming.
Placido told me all three performances are being filmed for the DVD. Placido, in his greetings to the partygoers, thanked the company members who made "La Traviata" a smashing success. They were on stage for continued curtain calls.
In his tribute and praise to Fleming, Placido said the role of Violetta should require two singers, not just the one, extraordinary range and dramatic ability of Fleming. He, of course, also thanked the financial contributors who have made the lavish productions of the company possible.
It is a doubly busy week for Placido: Friday, Sept. 15, he stars in the inaugural concert with the Pacific Symphony, in the world premiere of William Bolcom's "Canciones de Lorca" with lyrics by Spanish poet Federico Garcia Lorca in the Cesar Pelli-designed Renee and Henry Segerstrom Concert Hall at the Orange County Performing Arts Center gala opening. This evening is underwritten by Cartier.

So it looks like Olympic gymnast Alicia Sacramone has moved from amateurs to the pros. She is no longer dating Brown University's Eric Hunt, instead opting for the stellar good looks of one Brady Quinn. As she herself confirmed in an interview:
USA Gymnastics: I hear you've been attending a lot of Cleveland Browns football games lately. Can you talk about that?
Alicia: Yes, I have become a football fan. I was always a football fan but never into it too much until now. I'm dating Brady Quinn (the quarterback for Cleveland) so I travel to Cleveland on Sunday afternoons for home games.
USA Gymnastics: Has Brady visited you at the gym?
Alicia: No, but he said he's excited to come to a gymnastics meet.
USA Gymnastics: How did you two meet?
Alicia: We met at a charity event through a mutual friend.
I guess no one is no trying to hide this relationship. Brady better be careful, he doesn't want to end up like this guy.

Kimberley (Western Australia)
Kimberley Western Australia |
Location in Australia
Population | 50,113 (2011 census)[1] |
• Density | 0.1183258/km2 (0.306462/sq mi) |
Established | 1881 |
Area | 423,517 km2 (163,520.8 sq mi) |
LGA(s) | |
State electorate(s) | Kimberley |
Federal Division(s) | Durack |
The Kimberley is the northernmost of the nine regions of Western Australia. It is bordered on the west by the Indian Ocean, on the north by the Timor Sea, on the south by the Great Sandy and Tanami Deserts in the region of Pilbara, and on the east by the Northern Territory.
The region was named after John Wodehouse, 1st Earl of Kimberley who served as Secretary of State for the Colonies from 1870 to 1874 and 1880 to 1882.[2]
The Kimberley was one of the earliest settled parts of Australia, with the first arrivals landing about 41,000 years ago, probably from the islands of what is now Indonesia.[3]
In 1837, with support from the Royal Geographical Society, Lieutenants George Grey and Franklin Lushington, and 12 men sailed on the schooner Lynher from Cape Town reaching Hanover Bay on 2 December 1837. The party started inland on 19 January 1838.[4] Leaders and men were totally inexperienced, progress was delayed by flooded country, many stores were abandoned, and the party was constantly split up despite the presence of large numbers of hostile Aboriginals. On 11 February Grey was speared and became critically ill, but after two weeks continued the exploration. The party discovered and named the Gairdner River, the Glenelg River, the Stephen and Whately ranges and Mount Lyell before returning to Hanover Bay in April. There they were picked up by the Beagle and Lynher and taken to Mauritius to recuperate.[5]
In 1879 Alexander Forrest trekked across from the western coast to the Northern Territory. Forrest named the Kimberley district, and discovered the Margaret and Ord Rivers, the King Leopold Ranges, and the fertile area between the Fitzroy and Ord River.[6] He subsequently set himself up as a land agent specialising in the Kimberley and was thus instrumental in the leasing of over 21,000,000 hectares (51,000,000 acres) of land in the region during 1883.
In 1881, Philip Saunders and Adam Johns, in the face of great difficulties and dangers found gold in various parts of the Kimberley. Early in 1881 the first five graziers, who called themselves the Murray Squatting Company, took up 49,000 hectares (120,000 acres) behind Beagle Bay and named it Yeeda Station.[6] They became the first men to shear sheep in the southern Kimberley in 1883. There was further European settlement in 1885, when cattle were driven across Australia from the eastern states in search of good pasture lands. Many other Europeans arrived soon after, when gold was discovered around Halls Creek.
In the 1890s the area was the site of an armed insurrection of indigenous people under the leadership of Jandamarra, a Bunuba warrior.[7]
The only Japanese force to land in Australia during World War II was a small reconnaissance party that landed in the Kimberley on 19 January 1944 to investigate reports that the Allies were building large bases in the region. The party consisted of four Japanese officers on board a small fishing boat. It investigated the York Sound region for a day and a night before returning to Kupang in Timor on 20 January. Upon returning to Japan in February, the junior officer who commanded the party suggested using 200 Japanese prison inmates to launch a guerrilla campaign in Australia. Nothing came of this and the officer was posted to other duties.[8]
The 2011 estimated permanent population of the Kimberley was 34,794 but it rises dramatically during winter. On Census night in 2011 (9 August) it was 50,113. The population is fairly evenly distributed, with only three towns having populations in excess of 2,000: Broome (12,766), Derby (3,261) and Kununurra (4,573). Approximately 40% of the region's population is of Aboriginal descent.[1][9]
At federal level, the Kimberley is represented by the member for Durack. At state level, the Kimberley electorate takes in most of the region and all of its major towns, while Pilbara includes south-eastern areas such as Halls Creek and Fitzroy Crossing.
The Kimberley region consists of the local government areas of Broome, Derby-West Kimberley, Halls Creek and Wyndham-East Kimberley.
The Kimberley is an area of 423,517 square kilometres (163,521 sq mi), which is about three times the size of England or twice the size of Victoria.
The Kimberley consists of the ancient, steep-sided mountain ranges of northwestern Australia cut through with sandstone and limestone gorges and steep ridges from which the extreme monsoonal climate has removed much of the soil. The southern end of the Kimberley beyond the Dampier Peninsula is flatter with dry tropical grassland and is used for cattle ranching. In parts of the Kimberley such as the valleys of the Ord and Fitzroy Rivers in the south the soils are relatively usable cracking clays, whilst elsewhere they are lateritic Orthents. Although none of the mountains reach even 1,000 metres (3,281 ft), there is so much steep land as to make much of the region very difficult to traverse, especially during the wet season when even sealed roads are often flooded. The coast is typically steep cliffs in the north but flatter in the south, all subject to high tides.
The Kimberley has a tropical monsoon climate. The region receives about 90% of its rainfall during the short wet season, from November to April, when cyclones are common (especially around Broome) and the rivers flood. The annual rainfall is highest in the northwest, where Kalumburu and the Mitchell Plateau average 1,270 millimetres (50 in) per year, and lowest in the southeast where it is around 520 millimetres (20 in). In the dry season, from May to October, south easterly breezes bring sunny days and cool nights. Climate change since 1967 has led to large increases of as much as 250 millimetres (10 in) per year in annual rainfall over the whole region. Recent studies suggest Asian pollution and not global warming as the cause of this increased rainfall.[10] In 1997 and 2000 the region received especially heavy rains, leading to record flooding of the Fitzroy and other rivers.
The Kimberley is one of the hottest parts of Australia, with the average annual mean temperature around 27 °C (81 °F), and with mean maximum temperatures almost always above 30 °C (86 °F), even in July. The hottest part of the year is November before the rains break, when temperatures frequently reach above 37 °C (99 °F) on the coast and well over 40 °C (104 °F) inland. Mean minimum temperatures in July range from around 12 °C (54 °F) in the south to 16 °C (61 °F) along the coast, whilst in November and December they are generally around 26 °C (79 °F).[11] Record high temperatures range from around 47 to 48 °C (117 to 118 °F), while record lows are around 2 to 3 °C (36 to 37 °F), although some parts of the central Kimberly plateau can drop below 0 °C (32 °F) during the dry season.
The Aboriginal people of the Kimberley recognise six traditional seasons based on meteorological events, as well as observations of flora and fauna.
During the Devonian period, a barrier reef system formed before a subsequent drop in sea levels over the Kimberley. This reef system was similar to the Great Barrier Reef and is still visible today in the form of the Napier Range and the Ningbing Range. Some of the features are Tunnel Creek, Windjana Gorge and Geikie Gorge.[12]
This area is also known as the Kimberley Block physiographic province, of which it is part of the larger West Australian Shield division. This province contains the King Leopold Range, Durack Range, Leveque Rise, Browse Depression, and Londonderry Rise physiographic sections.
In BOM weather reports the North Kimberley Coast - is the WA Border to Kuri Bay section of the coast, while the West Kimberley Coast is from Kuri Bay to Wallal Downs. Significant sections of the coastline between Broome and Wyndham have no means of road access, and boat or helicopter are the only means. Due to the isolation a number of tourist operations on the coastline have been called wilderness locations.
The rugged and varied sandstone landscape is home to a distinctive mixture of wildlife which has been thoroughly mapped and described by the Western Australian Department of Conservation and Land Management.[13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23] There are similar habitats to the Kimberley across the border in the Northern Territory including the valleys of the Victoria and Daly Rivers but these have been less carefully studied.[24][25]
Much of the Kimberley is chiefly covered in open savanna woodland dominated by low bloodwood and boab trees (Adansonia gregorii) with Darwin stringybark and Darwin woollybutt eucalypts in the wetter areas. The red sandy soil of the Dampier Peninsula in the south is known for its characteristic pindan wooded grassland while in the more fertile areas like the Ord valley the trees are grasslands of Chrysopogon, Aristida, Dicanthium and Xerochloa (rice grass) in the wetter valleys. The banks of the Ord, Fitzroy and other rivers are home to a greater variety of vegetation while in sheltered gorges of the high rainfall north there are patches of tropical dry broadleaf forest, called monsoon forests, deciduous vine forest or vine thicket in Australia (often mistakenly called 'dry rainforest'), which were unknown to science until 1965[26] and are one of the most floristically rich parts of Australia outside the Wet Tropics and southwestern WA. There are also areas of mangrove in river estuaries where the coast is flatter.
Flora regions[edit]
In 1979, Beard identified four phytogeographic districts within the Northern Botanical Province:[27]
- Gardner District (Ga) in the north (and further divided into the West Gardner (WGa), Central Gardner (CGa) and East Gardner (EGa))
- Fitzgerald District (Fi) in the centre
- Dampier (Da) and Hall (Ha) Districts in the south
Animals found here include the huge saltwater crocodile and a rich variety of birds such as the channel-billed cuckoo, Pacific koel, purple-crowned fairywren and the bowerbird. The sandstone gorges of north Kimberley are an important refuge for a particularly rich collection of endemic species including some that have disappeared from the flatter areas including for example the purple-crowned fairywren, the endangered Gouldian finch and a large number of frogs: flat-headed frog, cave-dwelling frog, magnificent tree frog, Derby toadlet, small toadlet, fat toadlet, the unconfirmed marbled toadlet, Mjoberg's toadlet, mole toadlet and stonemason's toadlet. Mammals that have declined especially in the flatlands include the bilby, northern quoll, pale field rat, golden-backed tree-rat, and golden bandicoot.
The gorges of central Kimberley known for their fossils and for their large colonies of bats include Windjana, Tunnel Creek, and Geikie Gorges. Lake Argyle and other wetlands of the Ord and the Kimberley are important habitats while there are important populations of shorebirds in the Ord estuary, Eighty-mile Beach and Roebuck Bay, which has been described as "one of the most important stop-over areas for shorebirds in Australia and globally".[28] Finally there are a number of rocky islands off the north coast that are home to birds and turtles.
Threats and preservation[edit]
Little of the Kimberley has been subject to wholesale clearance other than particularly fertile parts of the Ord Valley (and areas of Kimberley-type habitat across in the Daly River basin in the Northern Territory) but the pastureland in the southern areas has been affected by 100 years of livestock grazing and other threats including introduced weeds (such as cocklebur, parkinsonia, bellyache bush and castor oil plant), feral cats and changes to traditional Aboriginal fire regimes (the way grassland is burnt and allowed to renew). However the remote sandstone areas to the north have valuable original habitat in good condition providing shelter for much wildlife.
The largest protected areas are the Prince Regent National Park and the Drysdale River National Park along with Gregory National Park and Keep River National Park across in the Northern Territory which preserve similar habitats, (and indeed Keep River's nearest town is Kununurra in the Kimberley).
The Kimberley is a popular tourist destination, with areas such as the Bungle Bungle, the Gibb River Road, Lake Argyle, El Questro Station, Mornington Sanctuary, Horizontal Falls and Cape Leveque. The Gibb River Road and the road into the Bungle Bungles can at times be accessed in a two-wheel drive car, although one can access many additional areas in a four-wheel drive vehicle.
Other parks in the region include Geikie Gorge National Park, Mirima National Park, Mitchell River National Park, Point Coulomb National Park, Purnululu National Park, Tunnel Creek National Park, Windjana Gorge National Park and Wolfe Creek Meteorite Crater National ParkIn 2012 the Western Australian government announced the creation of the 7,062 square kilometre Camden Sound Marine Park with a further three more to come.
Visitors to the area should be aware that the area can be subject to controlled burns at any time of year. In September 2011, a fire burned five people, two severely, who had been competing in the Kimberley Ultramarathon, an endurance cross country footrace.[29]
Save the Kimberley campaign[edit]
The Wilderness Society has led a campaign to protest a proposal to industrialise the James Price Point area of Broome. The Woodside corporation, with the additional involvement of BHP Billiton and the Australian government, has sought to build a gas industrial complex and those in opposition believe that such a development threatens the region. The campaign has received support from public figures such as John Butler, Clare Bowditch, Missy Higgins and former leader of the Australian Greens, Dr Bob Brown.
On 5 October 2012, a concert was held at Federation Square in Melbourne, Australia, to raise awareness of the campaign; the protest event attracted approximately 6,000 people.
On 24 February 2013, an estimated 20,000 people gathered for a charity concert[30] in Fremantle, Western Australia to raise awareness and funds to help protect the Kimberley with performances from Ball Park Music, Missy Higgins, and John Butler.
The Kimberley region has a diverse regional economy. Mining, construction, tourism, retail, agriculture, and pearling are major contributors to the region's economic output.[31]
The town of Broome has a flourishing pearling industry which operates around the Kimberley coast. Some of the major farmers are Paspaley Pearls, Clipper Pearls, Broome Pearls and the Willie Creek Pearl Farm.
One third of the world's annual production of diamonds is mined at the Argyle and the Ellendale diamond mines. Oil is extracted from the Blina oil field and gas is expected to be taken from offshore sources soon. Zinc and lead were mined at the Pillara and Cadjebut mines near Fitzroy Crossing with nickel still being mined at Sallay Mallay near Halls Creek. Derby is the nearest export base for shipping these metals.
Traditionally, the economy depended on pastoral leases - with most of the region covered by the leases.
More recently agriculture has been focused on the Ord River Irrigation Area near Kununurra. Irrigation was also trialled in the West Kimberley by way of the now defunct Camballin Irrigation Scheme. There are also fruit growers in Broome and in other areas in the West Kimberley. Beef cattle are grown in the Kimberley and exported live. Wyndham features the last remaining meatworks in the Kimberley - there were formerly works at Broome and Derby but financial constraints have caused these to be closed.
Barramundi are bred in Lake Argyle; and Broome features a fully equipped Aquaculture Park near the port which is tenanted by amongst others Paspaley Pearls and Broome TAFE. The Kimberley also has a thriving fishing industry.
Some of Australia's most prominent indigenous artists and art centres are in or adjacent to the Kimberley region. Artists such as Paddy Bedford and Freddie Timms have an international profile, and there are a number of Aboriginal-owned and controlled art centres and companies that assist artists, arrange exhibitions and sell works. The art centres in the region are also organised through the Association of Northern, Kimberley and Arnhem Aboriginal Artists. Issues have been raised regarding the exploitation of indigenous artists by businesses and individuals, including in the Kimberley, which were canvassed in an Australian Senate parliamentary committee report.
Tourism is expected to remain one of the Kimberley region's major growth industries. Averaged across 2010, 2011, and 2012, there were 292,600 domestic and international visitors to the Kimberley annually.[31]

Performance Learning Center Helps At-Risk Durham Youth
by Mary Catherine Benson / Carolina HurricanesOn Wednesday, Dec. 7, I spent the morning with the teachers and students of Communities In Schools of Durham's Performance Learning Center, an organization to which the Kids 'N Community Foundation provided funding.
Mary Catherine Benson |
With the help of dedicated instructors, an online curriculum lets students work at their own pace. Their graduation coach, Sarah, is determined to set up each student for success. Sarah gave me a detailed tour of the school; it was her personal attention to each student we passed that displayed the dedication of the staff at PLC. Sarah shared stories of achievement coupled with personal hardship.
Every student at PLC receives an individualized graduation plan along with academic and emotional support from each staff member. Each student walking down the halls was neatly dressed in slacks, a dress shirt and a tie. Different color ties denoted the students that were excelling by completing credits. However, I noticed one student who was dressed sharp but not in the specific dress code. Brandon was the "Most Valuable Student" that week. As a reward, he did not have to abide by the dress code! He is determined to succeed at PLC and is motivated to complete as many credits as possible. (Last year he won an iPad for finishing a record number of credits.)
This Fall, the Kids 'N Community Foundation provided funding to support the Performance Learning Center. Their commitment to the youth of our community is paramount; making sure that no child is left behind is not just a motto, but a policy. The staff, students and their parents work together to provide a healthy learning environment and the promise of bright futures.
Like them on Facebook to see their students' remarkable achievements.

Worth every dollar!!: Queen Mary 2 (QM2) Cruise Review by margatebne
Overall Member Rating
Worth every dollar!!
Destination: Transatlantic
Embarkation: Southampton
The ship is lovely. It's classic ocean liner and if you're looking for this kind of experience then this is the ship for you. The transatlantic crowd is quite cosmopolitan and certainly dresses for the occasion. The formal nights are quite a sight and you will see many spectacular dresses.
If space and luxury are what you're after then you will enjoy a Princess Grill suite. It has a walk in wardrobe and feels extremely spacious with lots of storage space. On long cruises I would feel very comfortable in a cabin of this size - it's very generous and well appointed. Fresh fruit is changed daily and the bed was very comfortable. We slept very well.
The staff on the Queen Mary are amazing. Every staff member went out of their way to say hello to us and make us feel special. Our More cabin steward kept our room immaculate and the Princess Grill restaurant staff were incredible.
The food in the Princess Grill is fantastic. We enjoyed all the dishes we ordered (especially the lobster which our waiter kindly arranged for me to have three on the one plate when I was concerned that one might not be enough. If you dine in the Princess Grill you will feel like royalty, as we did at every meal.
We loved this cruise and we really appreciated the staff making us feel so special. Less

Cabin review: P110050 Princess Suite
Excellent suite. In the middle of the ship so you don't feel very much movement. Perfect for westbound transatlantics as you can see the Statue of Liberty from your balcony.

The author is a Forbes contributor. The opinions expressed are those of the writer.
Continued from page 1
The temptation to do will be practically irresistible. Senators spend a lot of time working and socializing with extremely rich lawyer-lobbyists while making a comparatively modest salary, sometimes for decades. In the DC lobbying world, ex-senators can basically write their own tickets and make millions. Trent Lott, the disgraced former GOP Senate leader, teamed up with Democrat John Breaux, creating incredible legislative/lobbying synergy based on, they say, ... bipartisanship. Here they are defending the interests of Visa in the Obama attempts to revise the corporate tax code.
Consider the case of Evan Bayh, a Democratic moderate from Indiana. Two years ago, he announced his retirement and published an op-ed eerily similar to Snowe's, lamenting the decline of bipartisanship and collegiality in the Senate. By most accounts Bayh was an unremarkable senator, but the big statement got him a lot of attention and accolades, and speculation that he might be able to carry the message forward somehow in private life. But what did he do? He joined the DC firm McGuire Woods and a private equity firm. As Ezra Klein noted in his eulogy to Bayh's short career as a principled ex-senator, the firm's website says: "Principal clients served from our Washington office include national energy companies, foreign countries, international manufacturing companies, trade associations, and local and national businesses." He also signed up to comment on Fox News, not the best perch from which to advocate for reasoned political discourse.
I don't begrudge ex-members of Congress who want to make money. But those who say they want to fix gridlock and get government working again, then turn around and disappear into the K Street maw, demonstrate that hypocrisy and cynicism do indeed rule Washington. So Senator Snowe, if you really mean what you say, please don't become a lobbyist nine months from now when nobody's looking.

Top 20 lunatic cameos in movies - part 2
10: Stephen Tobolowsky - Sammi Jenkis, Memento (2000)
If this list is ultimately about memorable movie loonies, this is a fitting if ironic entry. Tobolowsky, best-known until Memento as needle-nosed Ned The Head in Groundhog Day (1992) plays a former client of ex-insurance investigator Guy Pierce, and one with an affliction which was shortly to enter the life of the Pierce character - an inability to make new memories after a severe head trauma. The clip below shows Sammi Jenkis repeatedly failing to learn that a test-object in a laboratory is electrified, and ultimately the character is doomed to a lonely existence when his doubting wife puts him to the test. Except, [SPOILER] the real Sammi Jenkis was never married, and appears just to be a place for Pierce to deposit his guilt and pain without having to feel them...
9: Merv Griffin - The 'Elevator Killer', The Man With Two Brains (1983)
It's the deadpan delivery and dry-as-dust conversational attitude that makes this lunatic cameo a comedy gem. The revelation that one of America's most beloved celebrities was murdering a string of European women in elevators was an additional treat in Carl Reiner's hot contender for best laugh-out-loud comedy of the 1980s.
Hfuhruhurr: You. You're the elevator killer. Merv Griffin.
Merv Griffin: Yeah.
Hfuhruhurr: Why?
Merv Griffin: I don't know. I've always just loved to kill. I really enjoyed it. But then I got famous, and - it's just too hard for me. And so many witnesses. I mean, everybody recognized me. I couldn't even lurk anymore. I'd hear, "Who's that lurking over there? Isn't that Merv Griffin?" So I came to Europe to kill. And it's really worked out very well for me.
8: John Carradine - Erle Kenton, The Howling (1981)
Unable to work 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, despite decades of trying, veteran actor Carradine eventually had to spread the work among his numerous sons. Even so, he couldn't stay off film sets even in his advanced years, and turns in a fine and grizzled performance as a lycanthrope discontent with the new innovations of werewolf leader Patrick MacNee (almost equally prodigious throughout his career).
7: Charles Durning - Waring Hudsucker, The Hudsucker Proxy (1992)
Durning's workmanlike career began to branch out into more eccentric roles by the late eighties; none more so than during the spectacular exit of Waring Hudsucker that sets up the need for a corporate 'patsy' in this first (and most under-appreciated) of the Coen Brothers requent tributes to the filmic style of years gone by. Pretty much as soon as we meet Waring Hudsucker, he's up on the board-room table and taking a joyful flying leap from the 100th floor of a New York skyscraper. Not even when the character returns to save Tim Robbins from a similar doom at the end of the movie do we find out quite why New York was wearing Hudsucker in reel one, but it's a hell of a start to a movie...
6: Rex Holman - J'onn, Star Trek V: The Final Frontier (1989)
Ex-folk-singer Holman has an emaciated physiognomy that sells his lonely existence digging holes (and apparently finding nothing) on Nimbus III, the Planet of Galactic Peace in William Shatner's sole writing/directorial entry in the Star Trek film series. For a movie this disappointing, Star Trek V has one of the most promising openings ever, and the dust-addled Holman, clearly shy about his orthodonture, helps sell the bleakness...
5: Stephen Root - Milton Waddams, Office Space (1999)
Root presents a simmering and bubbling-under lunatic who's not only ready to blow into a pyromaniac frenzy, but warns everyone who will listen (which is no-one) of this throughout the whole movie. They've taken his stapler, they've moved his desk back one time too many and soon it's payback time. Ultimately, nutty as he is, Milton burns Initech down for a rather more pragmatic reason - to hide his purloining of Ron Livingston's stolen funds. Though consigned to a secondary but ultimately crucial role in Mike Judge's cult comedy, the characters of Milton and office administrator Lumbergh (played in the movie by Gary Cole) were the seed from which Office Space sprang, appearing in a Judge animated short on Liquid Television in 1992, and progressing to a sketch on Saturday Night Live.
4: Katherine Borowitz - Ann Nirdlinger Brewster, The Man Who Wasn't There (2001)
There's something rather 'Tim Burton' about the above picture, isn't there? The Coen Brothers introduced a poetic strand of early-fifties 'B'-movie sci-fi into their film noir entry, to suggest the potential insanity of Ed Crane (Billy Bob Thornton) and the more interesting world beyond the barber's shop life that bores him to death. Borowitz turns in a fine performance as the widow of murdered James Gandolfini, confiding to Ed (who actually did murder her husband, albeit by happenstance) that she is convinced it was all the work of extraterrestrials...
3: Frances Bay, Mrs. Pickman, In The Mouth Of Madness (1994)
If the thought of a really old woman dragging her equally old nude husband around in an S&M suit by leg-irons constitutes for you a little too much horror, then In The Mouth Of Madness may not be for you. There are far too many loonies in David Lynch films for them to feature in this list, yet Mrs. Pickman seems to have entered Carpenter's Stephen King horror/satire straight from the reels of Twin Peaks or even Eraserhead. Those eyes, those chains...on the way out of the theatre, there should have been a sign saying 'Now wash your brain'.
2: Brad Dourif - The Scorpio Killer, Exorcist III (1990)
Like list-mate Vincent Schiavelli, Brad Dourif cut his cinematic teeth (as ingenue looney Billy Bibbit) in Miloš Forman's One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest, and more than any other star launched from that fine vehicle, has continued in the vein that he started. With a string of nutty cameos and supporting roles already to his credit, Dourif reached his unbalanced apotheosis as the serial killer using the body of the hero-priest in The Exorcist (Jason Miller) as a base for a new and bloody campaign. His unnerving and often terrifying chats with investigating detective William Kinderman (George C. Scott) were as chilling in William Peter Blatty's book as in this, the author's second outing as a director. A few boos from the gallery for the unnecessary attachment of Nicol Williamson as a title-justifying exorcist thrown in at the last minute, but otherwise this is a blood-curdling turn in an under-regarded horror entry.
1: Dennis Hopper - Photojournalist, Apocalypse Now (1979)
Apparently based on war photographer Tim Page, Dennis Hopper's spaced-out photojournalist brings the drug-fuelled delusions of the swinging sixties to the harsh realities of Vietnam in Coppola's superb adaptation of Joseph Conrad's Heart Of Darkness. With his empty-headed surfboard-mania, Lance (Tim Bottoms) brings to 'Nam the early sixties and the naiveté of the Kennedy years, but it isn't until you see acid-burnt Hopper finding deep meaning in freshman poetry such as If and Prufrock amidst a carpet of severed heads, that the dissonance between the homeland and this distant war comes into focus. Hopper is the madness of Vietnam itself, the failure to comprehend, taking the photos without capturing the story and hero-worshipping the war-God (Marlon Brando) who barely tolerates him. The influence of various substances on the character are rumoured to have required little or no research on the part of Hopper during the location shooting in the Phillipines.

WhatsOnStage Reviewer • London, Off-West End • 19 Jun 2013
Our Share of Tomorrow, written and directed by Dan Sherer for Real Circumstance, has a three week run at the Theatre503 as part of a national tour.
Set by the coast in an ambiguous location, the three characters are from Northern Ireland, Stoke and Essex respectively.
The premise of the play centres on 15-year-old Cleo Sparks (Tamsin Joanna Kennard), who has called upon chair delivery man John Broughton (David Tarkenter) to assist her in her quest to find her (recently deceased) mother's ex-lover Tom (Jot Davies). The unlikely mix of characters is intriguing, yet as the play progresses it becomes increasingly clear that this is the only element of intrigue within the script.
Clunky, obvious, and simple in its execution, the script unfortunately leaves no stone unturned, proffering neither mystery nor empathy to any of its characters. The shouty, ranting delivery, and provocative behaviour and cat-fights amongst the characters on stage, further alienate us, leaving one baffled as to how the sudden bursts of sea-faring folksong are meant to make them feel.
Moreover, a lack of silence and stillness and random outpourings of emotion mean that we continually have to play catch-up with a cast that races towards the finish line without dealing properly with the huge issues and feelings within.
The set, designed by James Cotterill, is one redeeming feature of this rather slap-dash production, featuring a large, mesh-covered strip light mounted on the wall, giving the marbled effect of waves and clouds at various moments. The staging of a boat using two thick ropes is also cleverly executed, although if the actors had reacted to being on the water instead of running around the boat (surely they would have fallen overboard!) then this would have been more effective.
In all, the moral or point of the story is lost through a rather obvious script and fraught performances, and ultimately left me feeling confused and frustrated. This is a shame, because with a little script-revision, the drawing of more three-dimensional and mysterious characters, and a delivery worthy of the actors, Our Share of Tomorrow could have been a real gem.
