About the Book
Best-selling author Andy Kessler ties up the loose ends from his provocative book, Running Money, with this history of breakthrough technology and the markets that funded them.
Expanding on themes first raised in his tour de force, Running Money, Andy Kessler unpacks the entire history of Silicon Valley and Wall Street, from the Industrial Revolution to computers, communications, money, gold and stock markets. These stories cut (by an unscrupulous editor) from the original manuscript were intended as a primer on the ways in which new technologies develop from unprofitable curiosities to essential investments. Indeed, How We Got Here is the book Kessler wishes someone had handed him on his first day as a freshman engineering student at Cornell or on the day he started on Wall Street. This book connects the dots through history to how we got to where we are today.

Tropical Fish Keeping - Aquarium fish care and resources
- Tropical Fish Diseases
- - Think might have ich
Think might have ich 3 Attachment(s) I think that one of my angels might have what might be ich on his dorsal fin, and also a couple of spots on the anal fin. The spots a white in color and almost look like little air bubbles. I have not seen any other symptoms on any of the other fish in the aquarium, and I just noticed it on him this evening. I recently had issues with a nitrite spike along with elevated ammonia reading, and nitrates were high, which I am thinking that the stress of this might have brought this on. The numbers that I got this morning when I tested my parameters were as follows ammonia 3 nitrite 1.6 nitrates 40 and ph is at 7.5 I have seen that there are several options for treating the aquarium for ich and wanted to know what people would suggest, the stock in my tank is as follows: angel fish, platys, black widow tetras, corys, and rubber lipped pleco. The temp of my aquarium is set for 80 although because of the heat it is at about 82. What would be the most effective way of treating this? Should I try using heat and salt, or should I go the route with using a ich treatment, and if so what would you suggest? I am attaching a couple of photos of the fish in question, sorry about the quality had to shot with flash off using the aquarium lights and the dim lighting in the room, so the focus is not that great but should be able to see what I am talking about. Thanks |
It could be Ich, bit hard to tell from the pic. it doesn't look like it in the first pic. his fins look quite ragged to me so he could have fin rot. What size tank is it and how many fish are in the tank. Your water parameters are a concern. Are you cycling the tank? I would do frequent partial water changes to keep the ammonia (in particular) down to .25. What dechlorinator are you using? Aquarium Salt can help with fin rot too, if all the inhabitants in the tank can tolerate salt...might be a problem for the cories. Melafix can help with fin rot (if that is what is wrong). I would concentrate on getting the water quality under controll, this will definitely aid in recovery. You could also feed anti-bacterial fish food or food soaked in garlic extract to boost his immune system. |
tank is 50 gallon, checked parameters again, ammonia 0, nitrite still at 1.6 and nitrates at 40. Did a 60% water change. The larger angel sometimes goes after him. Have some fake plants in tank right now while waiting for live plants to come in. Hopefully will help with some of the agression issues. For the garlic extract can I use the liquid from jars of minced garlic that I have, lable says has garlic, water and citric acid? Will keep an eye on the spots on his dorsal and anal fin. It really almost looks like they are little air bubbles on the fins, and none of the others are showing anything on them. |
Sorry for the late reply! Good that the ammonia is back to 0, just keep up with the partial water changes to keep the water quality of high as possible. Do you know what caused the all the spikes you mentioned in your first post. If you think he is being harassed too much, it might be a good idea to quarantine him (if you have a QT) so that he can rest/recover. I have used the minced garlic juice, now I just buy New Life Spectrum fish flakes with garlic added. Just from your pics., as I mentioned previously it doesn't look like Ich, but more to do with the fin damage. Ich looks like tiny grains of salt and uniform/round in shape. Is your Angel flashing/flicking at all? That is a tell-tale sign/symptom of Ich. This article on Ich may help if you haven't seen it already... http://www.tropicalfishkeeping.com/t...wn-white-1255/ |
No flashing or flicking. Someone else mentioned to me that it could be possible slime coat, from the ammonia being at high levels. He is still eating, although today have noticed him hiding in the corner behind rock formation. He does come out when food it put in. Also have seen him a couple of times do a bit of a shimmy, not sure if should be concerned about this or not. Levels are looking better ammonia is at 0 nitrites at 0.3 and nitrates at 10. Will try soaking some of the food in garlic juice and see if that helps things out. Thanks for your help. |

$5 bus fare to and from work
$17 on cat litter ( they delivered it too and gave me free food sample) They said it should last me 6-7 weeks! $4.13 on Choclate Soya milk,No Name Root Beer and Kraft Dinner. No....I didn't make the KD with the chocolate soya milk! : That's stuff that I needed to buy,well not really the RB,but it was $.79 and I have such cravings!!! Then I spent some money on bills!!! $50 on Hydro $50 on closed internet account $20 on Visa (that is my min. payment so I don't need to pay more until 30 days,but I will pay more next week) $3 measly dollars on a closed telephone account.....This place would NOT accept the payment on the internet bill even though it's the same company! It is now fully paid and closed for real!! $150 on my BIG credit card!!!! That is just over 1/2 of what my monthly goal is! I'm counting that as a partial payment for September |
Curlita -- If you think up a solution to the chocolate problem, let me know. If I bought a huge bag of M&Ms I'd have a huge gluttony M&M fest in the afternoon. A monster bag would last me all of two days...if it made it that long. I can't buy Halloween candy until the afternoon of Oct 31st. I'm too weak.

KBM/EKK/. Social Insurance. 29th October, 1937. Mrs. B.L. Arne, Secretary, Basque Children's Committee, Marsham Street, WESTMINSTER, S.W.1. Dear Madam, I deeply regret that I could not attend the meeting of the Basque Children's Committee at the House of Commons yesterday, as the notice was too short, and I could not attend in the morning. I made enquiries at the House of Commons during the lunch hour, but no one could give me any information, though I now hear that the meeting, after adjournment for lunch, continued in the afternoon. I would like to have a copy of the Report of the Legal Commission. Yours faithfully,

Betty on the News: True Blood Producer: Someone Will Die
Will the new season of 'True Blood' be just as good with a missing cast member?
-Carolyn French
We are just about falling apart at the seams with the news that a character on HBO's True Blood is soon to be killed off.
The show's executive producer Alan Ball revealed the unfortunate tidbit to TVGuide.com this week, saying that "Somebody is going to bite the dust and it's going to be really good to see them get what they deserve."
Ball also offered up the fact that "it's a person we'll be happy to see go."
So who do you think will be nixed from the third season? Lorena? Tara? (TVGuide.com)

"American Idol" is back!
The show is an "integral part" of "American culture," we're told. By Seacrest, of course. Note: I like Ryan Seacrest.
They start off nicely with a lot of really good singers, then a few screwed up performances. They do an excellent job of creating a feeling that the country is full of really nice, optimistic young people. Some are deluded, but we love them and forgive. Some are terrific, and they always make us happy and want to reach out and embrace them. So, yeah, it's actually true that the show has become part of American culture. I know it's corny and edge-free. But still....
Lots of ultra-nastiness from Simon. He says they need a bigger stage after a fat woman sings (and does well). He tells a guy he should shave off his beard and become a female impersonator. But you know this sort of thing is trumped up. Simon must be mean. I just said the show is "edge-free," but now I remember that Simon is supposed to be the edge. He's pseudo-edge.... an integral part of the show.
Well, no one struck me that much tonight. There are an awful lot of kids who think singing very piercingly loud and emotively is the way to be good. It's bizarre to do that when you haven't had enough feedback yet. They just throw themselves out there, without any basic sense of where the notes are. And then there was that one girl who just threw herself into tanning, without any sense of proportion. She was a classic "American Idol" delusional.

I cannot believe they didn't fire Paula!
I'll watch, but I doubt there'll be another Bo. - 1/17/06, 8:05 PM
- Irene Done said...
Actually Paula was lucid and charming. And yay! Althouse American Idol blogging is back!
- Ruth Anne Adams said...
This is my first season of "opting in" to the show and not just the Althouse recap. I have daughters who are twins. Is the twin thing an "integral part" of American Idol?
- Pastor_Jeff said...
I've never watched any "Idol" - just not interested. But I love coming here for all the commentary!
- MadisonMan said...
I'm not an American Idol watcher -- but sometimes the daughter will watch it, and I'll watch for a bit.
Ryan Seacrest is creepy. First -- he seems to be one of those people on TV for no apparent reason. Just about anyone could do what he does, couldn't they? And his mouth very out of proportion for his face.
Not that I'm shallow and judge people by their looks, of course. When he gets a (another?) facelift, the sides of his mouth will be way too far out to the side of his head. - 1/17/06, 10:00 PM

"Well, no one struck me that much tonight"
Celine Dion songs are very hard to sing well - from what I saw two women this evening attempted them. The first did a fantastic job! And, she got the nod from the judges. I'll be watching for her.
Unfortunately, i received a phone call just as the 2nd one started and muted my T.V. I have no idea how she did.
Does anyone know? Did she destroy it? - 1/17/06, 10:26 PM

I'm glad someone is studying this stuff. It would almost certainly entertain me too.
I guess I fear (if "fear" is exactly the right word) the addictive power of such fare.
But I just saw, on the Sundance Channel, "Supersize Me," the Michael Moore-style documentary of some patently ambitious guy looking for a gimmick eating nothing but McDonalds for a month. Guess what? He put on 25 pounds. Fast food is bad for you. Who would've known? - 1/17/06, 11:56 PM
- vbspurs said...
Wow, when I left Althouse in the afternoon, the joint was jumping.
Unless there is a thread below I haven't checked yet, this is the lowest volume of replies I've read as followups yet.
Boo, come out and play with me.
P.S.: Didn't watch Idol tonight. Was out watching "Glory Road" -- it was...everything I expected.

- susannah said...
I'm so glad you're blogging these again. I love watching the show and then coming here to read about it!
I really like the optimism in the early shows. There's something appealing about even the often-deluded--but genuine--hope and excitement that the contestants have. - 1/18/06, 12:32 AM
- ToadLady said...
Irene, agreed, plus her hair looked GREAT, but the ole issue of sleeping with a contestant...every time she got all flirty-eyed with a male potential Idol, it just reminded me.
- Ruth Anne Adams said...
And she did get mighty flirty with those 16 and 17 year old male contestants.
Double ick. Thanks for the reminder, Toadlady. - 1/18/06, 6:50 AM
- AJD said...
Ultra-nastiness? Delusions? It's got everything for you, Ann!
Only how can you stand everyone paying attention to someone else?!
I know: you blog about it and pretend to be wittier than thou.
Sorry, you still don't cut it. - 1/18/06, 7:20 AM
- knoxgirl said...
I don't mind Paula, and I'd stop watching without Simon.
MR said: "Fast food is bad for you. Who would've known?
LOL... every time somebody talks about "Supersize Me", this is what I think in my head. - 1/18/06, 7:47 AM
- enidv said...
Brian Kilmeade on Fox & Friends talked with Randy and Simon this morning. He said that Simon has changed his opinion of America based on doing this show. He used to think that Americans were corny. He now sees that Americans are told they can do anything they want - and they go for it. That is so true on this show. It's amazing the number of people that think they can sing really well but can't find a note in a paper bag. But bless their hearts, they try!
- Edmund said...
There are an awful lot of kids who think singing very piercingly loud and emotively is the way to be good.
Ah, the Whitney Houston school of singing. Compare and contrast her over-the-top version of "I Will Always Love You" with Dolly Parton's achingly soft and tender version.
BTW, the only AI I've seen is the promos, as I'm not a fan of most modern pop music. - 1/18/06, 9:02 AM
- Joel Gratz said...
I never quite understand why you choose to be so plugged in to this aspect of american pop culture, but are so completely oblivious anytime the football team from the college you teach at plays literally blocks down the street from you.
- jeff said...
I'm waiting for one of the failed performers who gets trashed by Simon to commit suicide.... and address the suicide note, "Dear Simon."
I fear that eventually it will happen. - 1/18/06, 11:00 AM
- Ann Althouse said...
Joel: I just don't care about sports. I don't really care much about these pop singers though. The show amuses me for some reason.

Collection Overview
Table of contents
Maynard L. Parker negatives, photographs, and other material consists of 58,093 black-and-white negatives, color transparencies, black-and-white prints, and color prints; 39 presentation albums; and 17 boxes of office records, 1930-1974. Created primarily by Maynard Parker, the archive documents the residential and non-residential work of architects, interior designers, landscape architects, artists, builders, real estate developers, and clients associated with these fields, foremost among them the magazine
House Beautiful
. Also included in the collection are photographs taken by other individuals, such as architect Cliff May and Parker's assistant, Charles Yerkes.
Maynard L. Parker (1900-1976), known sometimes as "Mike," was born and raised in Vermont. Parker worked in New England at a variety of jobs, including office boy, machinist, and gardener, before turning to photography as a profession. Parker traveled to California three times in the 1920s, finally settling in Los Angeles in 1929. He and his wife, Annie, lived in the Echo Park neighborhood, where Parker built a house on Lemoyne Street designed by a draftsman in architect Richard Neutra's office. The New England saltbox-style house served as residence and studio, as well as the backdrop for many of Parker's published photographs. Parker's personal interests included archery, home renovation, and building furniture. [See photocopies of Maynard and Annie Parker's journals, and interview transcript with Ann Carawan and Diane Parker, February 14, 2008, in collection files].

Full profile →'">
The author is a Forbes contributor. The opinions expressed are those of the writer.
Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC 2014) will take over San Francisco and the tech press next week (June 2-6) but Cupertino is mum about much of what it will show there. At this point a considerable majority of the session on the schedule have cute titles like, "Don't Even Try Guessing What This One is About," that clickably reveal further evasion, "The title and description of this session will be revealed after Keynote on Monday, June 2nd. Check back to view the updated schedule and favorite the sessions and labs you would like to attend."
Despite the attempts at secrecy, there are some large (and perhaps small) elephants in the room that Apple is bound to acknowledge in some way. These range from the necessity to acknowledge the ascendancy of JavaScript as a serious complement and competitor to Apple's own iOS to the ways that the rise of wearables and location-based devices (the Internet of things, the networked home) will lead to a radical simplification of the design sensibility of iOS and the apps made with it.
I have JavaScript on the brain after writing two stories on the launch of the Famo.us platform this week (read Part I and Part II here.) One of the particularly surprising aspects of these stories is the integration with one of open source app platforms that supports, Angular. So imagine my surprise when I poked around in the WWDC 2014 website and discovered that the elaborate schedule app is built using Angular!
In all of the sessions and labs there is only one mention of JavaScript (more will surely be announced at the keynote.) The session entitled "Web Inspector and Modern JavaScript" will cover, "Web Inspector, the powerful debugging tool in WebKit, is now available to JavaScriptCore-based apps. Find out how to leverage Web Inspector in your WebKit- and JavaScriptCore-based apps on iOS and OS X. Gain an overview of what's new in the JavaScript language and how to use modern JavaScript in your apps." This is an interesting acknowledgement of how prevalent hybrid JavaScript-inside-of-iOS apps have become, and the increased support in Web Inspector will make this process even easier for developers.
The really big question (the big/small elephant) is how much of a presence the iWatch will have at WWDC. Very few Apple watchers expect an actual product reveal next week, but I think it is highly likely that it will be alluded too fairly directly in terms of its anticipatory impact on iOS 8. I would expect subtle, teasing product placements for the iWatch to appear in some of the WWDC keynote videos. Much screen-shoting, tweeting and meme-ing will ensue!
As you can see from the iWatch concept app designs above by Dutch designer Nermin Hasonovic, simplicity rules the wrist. To be effective, smartwatch apps have to convey a single quanta of information that can be interacted with a minimum of attention and gesture. In many ways, "wrist first" is the ultimate "mobile first." Luke Wroblewski, who coined the term "mobile first" and wrote a book of the same name, argued that if companies pruned their web content down to what would work on a phone screen first they would discover that much of what was on their websites didn't need to be there. Doubling down on that same approach gets you "watch first." This idea really applies to apps with simple functions that are even capable of being usable on a 2-inch screen.
This simplification of core methods and concepts in iOS is the second shoe dropping after the introduction of "flat" design in iOS 7. It will also provide a further linkage between iOS and Mac OS X in the form of dashboard gadgets that, in principle, could retain configuration between desktop, tablet, phone and smartwatch.
One of the best concept imaginings of the iWatch hardware, designed by San Jose creative director Mark Bell of Belm Designs (see video below), is a great guess at what Jony Ive might do with a round, minimalist iWatch, but it completely gets the scale of the interface wrong. Not only are many elements too small to be usable (or even legible) at watch scale in his screen designs, but he also does not account for the importance of minimizing power usage for core apps as a way of being able to afford the requisite slim silhouette. Don't look for video on your wrist any time soon, sorry Dick Tracy.
The widely rumored Healthbook app should be included in iOS 8, iWatch or not. Allowing developers to work with phone-based versions of the health monitoring apps could help sort out which functions and displays can eventually live on the wrist (see image below) as opposed to admin functions that can only be managed on an iPhone or iPad. But once the simplicity required by a small (and especially circular) screen takes hold among designers it will have a "mobile first" effect across wider swaths of apps.
Reports about Apple's advance into the connected home market are another point in this same trend. Dutch designer Martin Hajek created a concept below of what a central hub "iHome" device might look like. It, too, will require very simple interface design because it will need to be viewed, in many cases, from across the room. There is a ccalculus at play here between the size of the screens that Apple is managing and the distance from which they are viewed. Why isn't Hajek's design round, like the iWatch is supposed to be and like the earpieces of Apple's new Beats headphone line? Well, there is that company called Nest that Google bought...
There will clearly be a play between round interfaces that imply a focal point, as is rumored for the iWatch and the continuation of rectangular displays that work well for displaying arrays of icons. AS you can see in the Mark Bell iWatch video above, grids beyond 2 by 2 don't work that well in small, circular spaces. Apple's recently announced CarPlay system is an example of a rectangular display system that is intended to be interacted with by voice or quick gesture. This range between simple, one-point focused apps and simple arrays will likely be reflected in iOS 8 and lead to a new emphasis on simplicity in screen design for all apps.

Just got back from seeing THE DEVIL and was better than I thought. It was creepy and had me on my toes. Shyamalan did a great job with this one and is back to doing what he does best.
I'm intriqued by "Here after" with Matt Damon. I hope it gets good reviews, because the premise is promising. And of course Deathly Hallows Part I!
I can't wait for this movie! It's going to be awesome! I was looking forward to seeing You Again, but the reviews received weren't very good. I still want to see it, though.
The Social Network currently has 100% rotten tomatoes rating. There are 35 reviewers on the film, and they all gave it a thumb up. I haven't seen this happen to any movie before. This is definitely the movie that I must see this fall.
Shyamalan actually didn't have much to do with it. The story was his idea and he produced it, that's all. It was written and directed by different people and I'm sure that was it's saving grace. (I should note, I have yet to see it but I've heard quite good things.) I can't wait for this movie, written by Aaron Sorkin and directed by David Fincher? I'm not sure how it could go wrong.
I'm planning to see Hereafter as well. Also, I caught a showing of Never Let Me Go in D.C. It's really good. They did a terrific job adapting the book. That said, I'd be interested to hear what some of you think of it who haven't read the book. It's rather quiet and slow-paced, and I don't know what kind of impression it would have made on me if I didn't already know the story. (I think I still would have liked it, though.)
I really want to see Never Let Me Go but I will probably have to wait until it comes out on DVD. That's the problem with living in a small Canadian city that only shows smaller movies when the movies are Canadian.
I saw Easy A this weekend. Loved it. It was hilarious and smart. Emma Stone did a great job - she's very charismatic and likeable. I'm looking forward to seeing Never Let Me Go and The Social Network and that one Katherine Heigl movie
It looks like a fun film but ... from the trailers, Emma Stone looks to be the least convincing high-school-age actor since the cast of Grease. For myself, I rarely see films in the theatres -- I generally perfer to wait to see them in a non-talking, non-cell-phone-ringing, non-chair-kicking environment. (Not to mention cat on lap, reclining chair, good snacks, and a good wine or beer.) But I will see Harry Potter on the big screen for sure. So far I've managed to avoid seeing any trailers, but as release time gets closer they'll no doubt be harder to avoid.
I thought Emma Stone was good, but I didn't care for the film itself. The satire was so over-the-top it was cartoonish a lot of the time. And Amanda Bynes, whom I usually like, played her role as if they'd spiked her Red Bull with uppers. Stanley Tucci was pretty good, but Lisa Kudrow and (surprisingly) Patricia Clarkson were awful.
I can't envision how this is going to be entertaining in the least. I saw the trailers and was unimpressed. I guess I'm just not interested in seeing Zuckerberg's life played out on the big screen.
The Social Network isn't a true biopic. It's a movie based on real life people, but there are scenes and dialogs that are made up to propel the movie along. Let Me In, the child vampire movie, is also getting very good reviews, but I'm too chicken to see scary movies.
I saw the movie in my film club (before release) with discussion after. I thought the movie was fair, but after the discussion, I like it more. Also I have never been a big fan of Keira Knightly, but she really impressed me in this movie. Overall the movie is very well made, good acting, cinematography, but the story is disturbing. Many folks in my film club (about 200 total) did not like, some liked it alot, but no I totally loved it.
I have no interest in seeing The Social Network (my opinion of Facebook is the same as Stan Marsh's). Red on the other hand....Helen Mirren and Morgan Freeman kicking @ss? I'm there opening weekend.
If it's like the Swedish version, I wouldn't really call it scary. It's disturbing in some ways and suspenseful, but not what I'd consider nightmare inducing. You can probably handle it, unless you're super-extra-chicken.
I'm both curious and horrified at Let Me In, since the Swedish original was so good. I wouldn't call it horror, but it is disturbing, heartbreaking and beautiful at the same time. It's less about vampires and more about the relationship (and loneliness) between the two kids. I don't expect the Hollywood remake to be anywhere near as subtle and good.
I saw it at an advance screening last night, and I absolutely LOVED it. Like you, I wasn't at all interested in seeing a movie about Zuckerberg or a film about Facebook. Obviously, both are integral to the story, but ultimately it's not really a biopic or even just a behind-the-scenes look at Facebook. (You don't necessarily have to be all that familiar with Facebook itself to enjoy the film, basically.) If anything, it was more of a character study about doing business with friends, the sudden trappings of wealth/notoriety at a young age, and how their philosophical differences become more of an issue as the stakes rise.
The Swedish Let the Right One In was so perfect in its mood-setting, I can't imagine a slick Hollywood remake being anywhere near as good. Plus it's not like horror films are on my "must see" list anyway ... so I doubt very much I'll bother to see it. The Facebook movie I'll definitely check out eventually (just because I'm such a Sorkin fan), but probably wait til DVD. After all, I was pretty late coming to the Facebook website ... makes sense I wait a while for the movie.
Now I want to see The Social Network even less! Sounds like Boogie Nights but without the porn or the humor. TSN could be another Cloverfield ... overhyped and overpraised by the egghead pre-release bloggers*, some who I question have actually seen it, but in the end just good for being different versus "classic, generaion defining". Even if it's "Good" but not great, the huge expectations being created by the early reviews will have whipped up a rabid anticipation that could turn 180 a few days into wide release. *I never take stock in Rotten Tomato reviewers. They seem to LOVE to be part of the borg ... whether over-rating to "create" a told-you-so hit from nothing, or under-rating to pile onto a film that's supposedly "beneath" their intellect.
Well, to play DEVIL's advocate, M. Night did not write or direct this movie. The story idea was his, but the writer is Brian Nelson (who wrote Hard Candy and 30 Days of Night). M. Night did co-produce the movie however...with Sam Mercer (Jarhead, Things We Lost In The Fire, Mission To Mars). I saw Devil yesterday with a friend and we both really liked it. I'm a major Shyamalan fan (have liked every single movie he's done), but my friend said he was disappointed with the dialogue in "Lady In The Water" and "The Happening". (I pressed him to give me something specific about what he didn't like!) My friend felt Shyamalan redeemed himself with this movie, but like I mentioned, he didn't direct or write this movie. So maybe people will give it a chance! It had some good scares (I saw my friend JUMP in his seat one time!) and the movie held my interest from start to finish. Very well-paced and suspenseful. A great popcorn movie!!
Maybe I'm not describing it correctly. At any rate, Aaron Sorkin wrote the screenplay, so you can count on a lot of witty dialogue. But then, I also thought Juno's dialogue was funny, and most people I know found it obnoxious and overly stylized.
Many people find Sorkin's writing obnoxious and overly stylized, too - it was one of the reasons why Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip was so polarizing and eventually died an early death. I happen to be a Sorkin-worshipper who loved S60 to pieces and was a die-hard fan of The West Wing, but I can see how some people aren't into his writing style. I saw Never Let Me Go at TIFF and thought it was quite lovely. The book was better - but I find that to be the case 99% of the time when it comes to book-to-movie adaptations.
I agree, I love Never Let Me Go, well, I must since I teach it every semester, and while I enjoyed the film, it just didn't have that beautiful crushing emotion that is so present in the novel. I have heard really good things about Let Me In. I was skeptical because LTROI is one of my favorite films. I do not buy the reviews that say the American version is better, but I will find out come Friday afternoon.
The 'Top critics' quoted on RT are not paid RT employee or some run of the mill internet nobody. They're legit reviewers from National magazines and newspapers, ie, Time, Newsweek, NY Times, Rolling Stones, etc. I'm sure Roger Ebert is perfectly capable of forming his own opinion and not get caught up in being "part of the borg".
That does look intriguing. I might actually see it. I hadn't really heard of it until this thread. Anxiously awaiting your review. I don't feel very motivated to go see it, but I might out of plain old curiosity.
After watching Martin Sheen & Emilio Estevez on Strombo the other night I'm interested in seeing their new movie, The Way. (BTW, the interview is worth watching just for the story of how Sheen came to the Toront film festival for the movie premier ... and ended up joining a picket line. LOL. Intervew starts at about 9:35. Not sure if it's geoblocked outside of Canada.) I'm also going to try to check out Barney's Version opening here at the Vancouver film fest. It was my favourite Mordecai Richler novel and the movie was a real labour of love, so I have high hopes for it. Plus Paul Giamatti is I think just about perfect casting for Barney.

Dale Henderson is the person who said "The Garden Club should do something about the Brazilian Pepper in Cedar Key". She said it in 1998. The Cedar Key Garden Club and local citizens have been "doing something" about Brazilian Pepper ever since she made that remark. Henderson was given a Certificate of Appreciation and a "Thank You" card from Garden Club members at the Jan. 6 kick-off of the 2012 season.
The Cedar Key Historical Society will kick off the 2012 Monthly Coffee Program Series on Thursday, Jan. 19, at 10 a.m., at the Cedar Key Community Center, Sixth and F Streets, Cedar Key. The January speaker will be Mrs. Catharine Hobday, one of the assistant light keepers who served at the Cedar Keys Light Station on Seahorse Key from 1873 until 1879. Mrs. Hobday, portrayed by Toni Collins, will entertain the audience with highlights of what early service in the U.S. Lighthouse Service was like for the lighthouse employees.
The state Department of Education's grades for high schools are out and it's a mixed report for Levy County.. The report card: • Bronson Middle/High School got a C, down from last year's B • Cedar Key High School got a C, down from last year's A • Chiefland got a B, down from last year's A, and • Williston High School got a B, up from a C.
Competition was tight Friday morning between elementary and middle school spelling champs from schools throughout the county. Eleven children competed in the Levy County District Spelling Bee, held at Bronson High School, but only one came away with the top prize and a chance to compete in Tallahassee's Big Bend Regional Spelling Bee in February.
A couple who shelter 50-70 cats at their Cedar Key home must reduce the population, pay a $150 fine, $5 court costs and return to court on Feb. 14 to show progress in remedying the associated odor and fly problems. Levy County Judge James T. Browning also withheld adjudication — a finding of guilt — in the code enforcement case that he heard on Tuesday.against Oliver Bauer, who with his wife Doreen shelters the cats at their Gulf Boulevard home
By TOM TEN BROECK
Mark Twain may have said it best when he was attributed with saying, "The reports of my death are greatly exaggerated."
For the past few weeks, readers of the Tri-County Bulletin, Chiefland Citizen, Williston Pioneer Sun News and Cedar Key Beacon have expressed concern over the lateness that these products have been arriving in their hands. Do not worry, these fine products are not going anywhere.
It is that time of year. If Cedar Key is to keep its lovely native vegetation, we've got to keep fighting the invasive Brazilian Pepper trees. The kick-off of the Brazilian Pepper (BP) season will be on Friday, Jan. 6, at 10 a.m., behind the Cedar Key State Museum.
A citation for a cat shelter that houses about 75 felines at the Gulf Boulevard home of Doreen and Oliver Bauer will go to Levy County Court on Tuesday, Jan. 10. The issue, which first arose at a City Commission meeting in late November has spurred a rash of "Letters to the Editor" in the past month. Neighbors complained at the commission meeting about the number of cats and the odor and flies generated by their presence on the residential property.
The Cedar Key City Commission and the commission sitting as the Community Redevelopment Agency approved money for upgrades to the city's fire hydrant system at its Dec. 20 meeting. The proposal, made by Fire Chief Robert Robinson, calls for: • installing 37 Storz fittings on hydrants that do not have them • adding a new hydrant on Gulf Boulevard and Shellcrest and • replacing seven fire hydrants, including two on Dock Street and five in the Hudson Hill area.
Five high school students got a lesson in how government works when the Levy County Commission roundly rejected their proposed resolution "intended to discourage the placement, sale, and delivery of candy flavored tobacco products to persons under the age of eighteen (18)."

There are few places on the web for black models. A few years ago, there were even fewer. Tommy McInnis of Colorado made it happen, and thus the website Jazzy Models was born.
The process to get in is rather simple. You submit a photo to Tommy, who, if he approves, provides a small page with a few choice photos. Any additional information (Yahoo groups, email, web pages) will be placed below those photos as sort of a nice business card.
The key to the website's success is that it's not over-designed. Its design is simple enough to navigate for the average user and is much easier for industry contacts to browse through. Should the model in question wish to meet industry contacts and/or just introduce him- or herself to potential viewers, there is a message board called Jazzyville.
As part of Jazzy Models, the message board serves as a place for Tommy and industry contacts, as well as regular folks, to mix and mingle with models. This interaction breaks down the "don't talk to me" attitude that most seem to have about models. You can also acquire a job by visiting the posting section.
Give the site a look and check it out for yourself. It might look average, but the low-key design and overall friendliness of the message board more than make up for it. Besides, where else can you conduct business with pretty girls and talk with them about the basketball game at the same time?

NEW YORK (AP) — A hardy Hungarian hunting dog and a pet known as the "royal dog of Madagascar" will join the pack at the Westminster Kennel Club show next year, organizers announced Friday.
The kennel club said the wire-haired visla and the coton de tulear will be eligible to compete for the first time in the New York show next February.
The wire-haired visla is a medium-size breed developed to hunt in northern Hungary's cold winters and rough terrain. It's related to the visla, which has a smooth coat.
The coton de tulear is a small, cheerful companion dog with a long, white, cotton-like coat.
"While they differ in exercise and grooming needs, both are sweet, loyal, loving family companions," said Gina DiNardo, a spokeswoman for the American Kennel Club, the governing body for Westminster and many other canine events.
Breeds are added to the prestigious Westminster dog show after they are recognized by the AKC. Recognition requires having several hundred dogs of the breed nationwide, among other criteria. With the newcomers, there are now 180 AKC-recognized breeds.
Westminster also announced that the AKC's popular, non-competitive "Meet the Breeds" event will be held in conjunction with the February dog show. The breeds event has been held in the fall for several years.

Having taken ambiguity to disturbing extremes in his slippery 2003 documentary "Capturing the Friedmans," director Andrew Jarecki unveils a very different true-crime saga in "All Good Things."
Having taken ambiguity to disturbing extremes in his slippery 2003 documentary "Capturing the Friedmans," director Andrew Jarecki unveils a very different true-crime saga in "All Good Things." Modeled on the strange story of Robert Durst, the wealthy Gothamite long suspected but never implicated in his wife's 1982 disappearance, this feverishly creepy but dramatically miscalculated picture reps an unhappy marriage of murky psychodrama and dubious theorizing. Finally opening through Magnolia after a lengthy holdup by the Weinstein Co. (which ended with Jarecki buying back the rights), the long-gestating 2008 production will struggle to parlay mixed critical response into theatrical interest.
Marcus Hinchey and Marc Smerling's script folds meticulous research and considerable speculation about the Durst affair into the tale of the singularly troubled David Marks (Ryan Gosling), scarred at a young age by his mother's suicide and thereafter a perpetual disappointment to his intimidating father, Sanford (Frank Langella), the head of a seedy Manhattan real-estate empire. It's 1971 when David courts Katie (Kirsten Dunst), a lovely young woman who seems to offer him an escape from his childhood demons. For her part, Katie sees in David a chance at a better life than she's known growing up in Long Island. The film is thus framed as a tragic love story between two opposites, as well as a close study of marital meltdown. After he and Katie spend a few happy years in Vermont, where they open a health-food store called All Good Things (hence the highly ironic title), David succumbs to his father's pressure and enters the family business — a decision that causes both his psyche and his marriage to unravel. Spending his days collecting rent from porn theaters and massage parlors in Times Square (whose sordid '70s ambience is vividly re-created here), David becomes increasingly cold, at times violent toward Katie, even forcing her to have an abortion when it's clear he has no desire for children. There's much more to come, in an increasingly freakish and ominous story involving multiple homicide, concealment, cross-dressing and blackmail, as David flees New York for Galveston, Texas, and strikes up a bizarre friendship with reclusive lodger Malvern Bump (a terrific Philip Baker Hall) — who, like David's friend Deborah (Lily Rabe) and even Katie herself, makes the mistake of seeing this scion of American privilege as an opportunity. The more the film implicates David, the more it distances itself and the viewer, playing out in the emotionally detached but sensationalistic, overripe manner of a tabloid freakshow. The script's wealth of exceedingly odd details suggests an attempt to hew close to known facts, an affirmation that truth is often stranger than fiction. But truth is a notion the film circles only vaguely and at times disingenuously, damning its central figure even as it conveniently falls back on the creative liberties afforded by dramatization. It's hard to shake the feeling that "All Good Things," like so many fact-fiction hybrids, would have been far more compelling as a straight documentary; Jarecki, who cleverly exploited a treasure trove of homevideo footage for "Capturing the Friedmans," seems unable to marshal the resources of narrative filmmaking with the same verve. As the decades-spanning story jumps around in time, Gosling is required to don a woman's blonde wig one minute and layers of old-age makeup the next; while he's ably cast as a man whose outward, baby-faced charm conceals darker impulses, the character is denied the psychological coherence that would invite not merely revulsion, but empathy. Dunst is entirely sympathetic as an optimistic young woman whose safety we instinctively fear for, and the film never quite recovers from her departure (whatever the reasons for the delayed release, it's wonderful to see the actress onscreen again after a two-year absence). Langella is predictably imposing in a reductive domineering-dad role. Michael Seresin's 35mm lensing conveys a dark grit and texture redolent of pictures from the '70s, and Wynn Thomas' production design effectively spans a host of locations, from a humble Vermont market to a glassy Manhattan executive suite. Noisy score ratchets up the atmosphere to tediously operatic levels.All Good Things

Nov 18, 2012Frequent use of it can actually make you feel more mentally aware- which is an actual real world benefit of what is being billed as a "game." After playing this on a long train ride, I am more inclined to tackle larger calculations in my head at work as opposed to my instinctual reach for the calculator. Brain Age did the same for me, and American Mensa Academy feels like a more robust version of that treasured Nintendo title.

Khan Academy is one of the biggest and most comprehensive catalogs of educational videos and it's all free for the taking. And now it's arrived on the iPad - the whole collection of over 2,700 videos is up for grabs and taps.
The idea behind Khan Academy is that of a whole university at your fingertips. The videos aim to explain in simple terms and topic by topic everything from calculus through biology and to astrophysics.
The iPad app allows you to watch the videos offline and even have your progress synced between devices, so if you pause a video on your notebook, you can pick it up from the same place on the iPad.
The tablet application doesn't offer the full functionality you'd get on the web such as exercises, but it does offer detail transcripts of the lectures allowing you to go back and revise something you've missed easily without going through the whole lecture again.
The story behind Khan Academy is an interesting one. The whole idea occurred to hedge fund manager Sal Khan who had to tutor his younger cousin in math. He first wrote small apps to help her understand some problems, but later switched to YouTube videos and in no time he was tutoring 25 people in his family.
Now, the outreach is huge and you can join in the learning for free on your iPad if you hit the source link below.

This night, everything happened. Advertisement The evening started off bizarrely, with the revelation that Yankees GM Brian Cashman is no longer on speaking terms with Alex Rodriguez. It's because of Rodriguez's potential pending litigation against the team, and it leads to incredible quotes like this: "I'm not comfortable talking to Alex about this because we feel we are in a litigious environment," Cashman told reporters before in the visiting dugout of Fenway Park before Sunday night's game. "'Hello' and 'goodbye,' that's about it. I'm not comfortable talking to him anymore."The Red Sox may have taken this as a sign that no one would leap to Rodriguez's defense, but manager Joe Girardi showed otherwise. In his first at-bat, Rodriguez was repeatedly targeted at by Boston starter Ryan Dempster, finally successfully. Dempster was inexplicably only warned, and it was Girardi that earned the ejection for a heated, profane protest that of course he was throwing at A-Rod.Afterwards, Girardi was flabbergasted that Dempster was allowed to stay in the game. Advertisement "Whether I agree with everything that's going on, you don't throw at people. You can't start changing the system because you don't like it. You can't take your pot shots."You'd have to have your head in the sand to not know what was coming. There is no explanation. It can't happen. You can't start throwing at people."(After being warned, Red Sox pitchers would go on to hit three more Yankees. But none of them were A-Rod, so they were presumably accidental.) Advertisement Sponsored Rodriguez himself called the beanball out of line. "Whether you like me or hate me, what's wrong is wrong. It was unprofessional and silly. Kind of a silly way to get somebody hurt on your team, as well."Today kind of brought us together. Joe's reaction was amazing. Every single one of my teammates came up to me and said, 'Hit a bomb and walk it off.'"And wouldn't you know it?Once the Rodriguez sideshow finally abated, the Yankees' rode a bases-loaded triple from Brett Gardner to a 9-6 win to stay alive, if just barely, in the wild card race. The Red Sox, meanwhile, see their AL East lead fall to one game ahead of a week-long West Coast trip. The Yankees and Red Sox will meet seven more times this season. It will be delightful, even if you're rooting for the meteor.The one-man Bronx Zoo stayed open late. In the clubhouse after the game, Rodriguez confirmed that he is filing a grievance against the Yankees for allegedly mishandling his injuries over the past year.Reply40 repliesLeave a reply

Attorney general: lab work too slow
CELINA - The Ohio Bureau of Criminal Identification and Investigation (BCI&I) is on average 125 days behind on processing DNA evidence, according to Ohio Attorney General Mike DeWine.
"Now that is simply not acceptable," DeWine told local law enforcement officers Monday afternoon at a Northwest Regional Law Enforcement seminar at Wright State University-Lake Campus.
The lengthy process delays the prosecution of suspects and in a rape case could mean the suspect remains unidentified and on the streets, DeWine said.
"It is a matter of life and death," he said.
DeWine vowed to improve efficiency by improving technology, including the use of robots, allocating more money, resources and people to the crime lab and streamlining the DNA process.
He said he would like to reduce the steps used while maintaining quality results.
"We're going to dramatically change it (efficiency)," he said, adding that the demand for DNA continues to grow. "Juries want DNA."
DeWine - who told law enforcement officers his department is here to assist them - also addressed identity theft, the main topic of the seminar.
Bad guys are using better and newer technology and must be combated as there are all kinds of scams out there, DeWine said.
He had no specific numbers related to identity theft but said the state receives 35,000 calls every year about consumer fraud. Of those calls, only two last year resulted in criminally prosecuted cases, he said.
He said a prosecutor is now embedded in his office to assist with consumer fraud cases and intends to help local agencies develop winnable cases.
If people receive calls that sound too good to be true, they are, he said, adding that people should be concerned about requests for money transfers through services such as Western Union.
DeWine pointed out one case where a scam artist used the name of a victim's grandchild to swindle them out of money.
Mercer County Sheriff Jeff Grey said his department sees between 15 to 25 cases each year involving identity theft. The big thing for his department is learning how to investigate these kinds of cases and help restore the victims, he said.
DeWine also talked about cracking down on doctors contributing to the prescription drug abuse problem in Ohio, one that has been covered by the media extensively in southern Ohio but affects all counties.
DeWine said rogue doctors will have their licenses taken away and be indicted, prosecuted and put into prison.
"It's just a huge, huge problem," he said.

RTÉ News moves from using film cameras to cover stories for television to using video. Electronic news gathering (ENG) means video is replacing film.
A report on how electronic news gathering (ENG) is replacing the traditional methods of RTÉ Television News covering stories from around the country. Reporter Tommie Gorman explains how video will allow stories to be brought to air much quicker than when reports had to be made on film. The railway service was vital on getting news stories from around the country to the RTÉ studios in Dublin.
Gerry Murray a technician in the Sligo studios sends pictures from a video tape to Dublin electronically. Wesley Boyd Head of RTÉ News talks about how a changeover from film to video cameras is now almost complete.
At the opening of new regional RTÉ studios in Sligo local press are briefed on how ENG will work. Two local camera men Jim Eccles and Josie McGarrigle who provided mute film pictures to RTÉ are presented with awards for over twenty years service.
Rory O'Connor of RTÉ explains how live pictures can now be brought into the major news programmes.
Reporter Jim Fahy on how a briefing to local newspaper journalists at RTÉ's Galway offices on the speed ENG equipment would make a story available. During the briefing it became possible to demonstrate the efficiency as camera crew returned from Athenry with a report about a protest that was still taking place.

Information: |
By 1985 RTÉ had almost completed replacing the film cameras used by news crews with video cameras. Film had been the main media for news coverage since RTÉ began broadcasting in 1961. Electronic news gathering (ENG) would allow more flexibility in reporting and stories could be brought to air as they happened. This report broadcast 26 March 1985 explains how reports were made on film and how they would now be made with video recording. |

Pope's butler charged in 'Vatileaks' case
Latest update : 2012-05-26
Vatican magistrates charged the Pope's butler with illegal possession of secret documents on Saturday and said they would launch a wider investigation into the "Vatileaks" scandal to see if others were involved in leaking information to the media.
REUTERS - Vatican magistrates formally charged Pope Benedict's butler with illegal possession of secret documents on Saturday and said a wider investigation would take place to see if he had any accomplices who helped him leak them.
Paolo Gabriele is suspected of leaking highly sensitive documents, some alleging cronyism and corruption in Vatican contracts, in a scandal which has come to be known as "Vatileaks".
A statement referred to Gabriele, 46, who was until his arrest on Wednesday night serving the pope meals and helping him dress, as "the defendant".
It said a preliminary investigation had been upgraded to a "formal investigation," meaning he had been formally charged, and had chosen two lawyers to defend him.
Because the Vatican has no jail, Gabriele was being held in one of the three so-called "secure rooms" in the offices of the Vatican's tiny police force inside the walled city-state.
The Vatican promised that he would have "all the juridical guarantees foreseen by the criminal code of the State of Vatican City."
The Vatican said the upgraded, formal investigation "would continue "until a sufficient framework of the situation is acquired," which a Vatican official said meant magistrates wanted to determine if Gabriele acted alone or with others.
The pope was said to be "pained" that someone in his domestic household had betrayed him. Gabriele lived in the Vatican with his wife and three children.
Commentators in Italian newspapers said they doubted that Gabriele could have acted alone and some speculated that he may have been a pawn in a larger, internal power struggle.
"Never has the sense of disorientation in the Catholic Church reached these levels," Church historian Alberto Melloni wrote in Italy's Corriere della Sera newspaper. "But now there is something even more - a sense of systemic disorder."
Up to 30 years in jail
If convicted, Gabriele could face a sentence of up to 30 years for illegal possession of documents of a head of state. He would likely serve any time in an Italian jail because of an agreement between Italy and the Vatican.
The scandal involves the leaking of a string of documents to Italian media in January and February, including personal letters to the pope.
Some of the documents involved allegations of corruption, mismanagement and cronyism in the awarding of contracts for work in the Vatican and internal disagreement on the management of the Vatican bank.
Gabriele worked in the papal apartments of the Apostolic Palace, serving at the papal tables, handing rosaries to visiting dignitaries and riding in the first seat of the popemobile at papal audiences.
He was privy to the goings on in the most reserved and private rooms in the Vatican.
The pope had ordered several investigations, including one headed by Vatican police and another by a commission of cardinals.
The leaked documents included letters by an archbishop who was transferred to Washington after he blew the whistle on what he saw as a web of corruption and cronyism, a memo which put a number of cardinals in a bad light, and documents alleging internal conflicts about the Vatican Bank.
In January, an Italian television investigation broadcast private letters to Secretary of State Cardinal Tarcisio Bertone and the pope from Archbishop Carlo Maria Vigano, the former deputy governor of Vatican City and currently the Holy See's ambassador in Washington.
The letters showed that Vigano was transferred after he exposed what he argued was a web of corruption, nepotism and cronyism linked to the awarding of contracts to Italian contractors at inflated prices.
In one letter, Vigano wrote of a smear campaign against him by other Vatican officials who were upset that he had taken drastic steps to clean up the purchasing procedures. He begged to stay in the job to finish what he had started.
Bertone responded by removing Vigano from his position three years before the end of his tenure and sending him to the United States, despite his strong resistance.

SENNHEISER HD800 Excellent, low hours
Will Ship To: CONUS
Original owner selling excellent Sennheiser HD800. Purchased a little over a year ago from an authorized dealer. Less than 100 hours on them and probably not even broken in. I used these only sporadically to check and monitor certain songs on my big audio system and really have no need for them at this point. Time for them to find a good home.
Flawless operating condition and excellent cosmetics, probably rated a 9 overall. Common to the HD800, there are several minor marks in the paint which are not very noticeable and which are already reflected in the low price.
Includes all original items including the outer box, inner lined storage box, manual and original cable.
Moon Audio Blue Dragon cable - In addition to the original Senn cable included with the phones, I also can include an upgraded cable consisting of the highly regarded Moon Audio Blue Dragon cable in a very long 17 foot length. This cable is a vast improvement over the original cable and greatly improves the HD800, providing much better detail and transparency, smoother highs, and a deeper more extended bass - offsetting some of the HD800's known characteristics. 1/4" plug is the Furutech F-704 gold. The improvement is so dramatic that you hear it in the first few seconds of listening, producing a big smile on your face and an expression of "Wow, that's unbelievable." I'm not kidding. Original price for this cable was $365 from Moon Audio -- your price would be $220 (which is 60% of the new price).
My total price for the HD800 and Moon cable was $1500 + 365 = $1865.
I'll sell the HD800 either with or without the Moon cable - with $1,118, without $898.
Feedback - See my additional feedback on Audiogon totaling a perfect 261 for nearly 100 transactions over more than 10 years (Audiogon name Dne, which is my first name rearranged.)

Put Freedom To The Test With Harley-Davidson

A second area of research involving nanotechnology uses viral particles as templates to fabricate uniform, nanometer imaging probes and drug carriers. The research team is extracting the DNA from viral particles and replacing it with imaging agents. The goal is to have the viral capsule adhere to a cancer cell and inject the imaging or a therapeutic agent into the cell. This technology could lead to early diagnosis and the development of targeted drug therapy that kills cancer cells while leaving the rest of the body unharmed.
"The development of a smart probe and carrier complex will provide significant advantage to the clinicians as they can locate the tumor, monitor the drug delivery vehicle and control drug release using imaging techniques," said Chen.
Another avenue of nanotechnology research at Rush is to develop nanometer sized contrast agents with ultrasound to diagnose ovarian cancer. Such nano ultrasonographic contrast media can pass through the smallest capillaries. These tiny bubbles light up on ultrasound and may be able to show the earliest vascular changes associated with ovarian malignancy. If this is successful, further research will be conducted to study targeted imaging as well as targeted therapy.
Ovarian cancer is the fifth-most common cancer among American women and claims the lives of more North American women each year than all other gynecologic malignancies combined. About 75 percent of patients are not diagnosed until the disease is in its later stages, and current therapies are not effective enough to successfully treat the disease in such advanced stages.

Lisa"Grace" is one of my favorite words, and I'm remembering two dear aunties that shared that name.
Mary, you've captured the light so perfectly on your beautiful treasures! Very nice. I love that you treat yourself after an unsavory chore.
I'm really looking forward to your tutorial on blog photography. xo ~mI love your moment of grace, and the sharing of it is a special thing. DH just passed behind me, and I said, "Look! Here's someone who does exactly what we do! She arranges a tray, then tells which shop and relative all the beautiful things came from."
Thank you for sharing your beautifuls and your grace.
