bchap. ibcOf the Principle of Self–approbation and of Self–disapprobationc1In the two foregoing parts of this discourse, I have chiefly considered the origin and foundation of our judgments concerning the sentiments and conduct of others. I come now to consider dmore particularlyd the origin of those concerning our own. 2eThe principle by which we naturally either approve or disapprove of our own conduct, seems to be altogether the same with that by which we exercise the like judgments concerning the conduct of other people. We either approve or disapprove of the conduct of another man according as we feel that, when we bring his case home to ourselves, we either can or cannot entirely sympathize with the sentiments and motives which directed it. And, in the same manner, we either approve or disapprove of our own conduct, according as we feel that, when we place ourselves in the situation of another man, and view it, as it were, with his eyes and from his station, we either can or cannot entirely enter into and sympathize with the sentiments and motives which influenced it. We can never survey our own sentiments and motives, we can never form any judgment concerning them; unless we remove ourselves, as it were, from our own natural station, and endeavour to view them as at a certain distance from us. But we can do this in no other way than by endeavouring to view them with the eyes of other people, or as other people are likely to view them.efWhatever judgment we can form concerning them, accordingly, must always bearf some secret reference, either to what are, or to what, upon a certain condition, would be, or to what, we imagine, ought to be the gjudgmentg of others. hWe endeavour to examine our own conduct as we imagine any other fair and impartial spectatorh would examine it. If, upon placing ourselves in his situation, we thoroughly enter into all the passions and motives which influenced it, we approve of it, by sympathy with the approbation of this supposed equitable judge. If otherwise, we enter into his disapprobation, and condemn it. 3Were it possible that a human creature could grow up to manhood in some solitary place, without any communication with his own species, he could no more think of his own character, of the propriety or demerit of his own sentiments and conduct, of the beauty or deformity of his own mind, than of the beauty or deformity of his own face. All these are objects which he cannot easily see, which naturally he does not look at, iand with regard to which he is provided with no mirror which can present them to his view.i Bring him into society, and he is immediately provided with the mirror which he wanted before.1 It is placed in the countenance and behaviour of those he lives with, which always mark when they enter into, and when they disapprove of his sentiments; and it is here that he first views the propriety and impropriety of his own passions, the beauty and deformity of his own mind. To a man who from his birth was a stranger to society, the objects of his passions, the external bodies which either pleased or hurt him, would occupy his whole attention. The passions themselves, the desires or aversions, the joys or sorrows, which those objects excited, though of all things the most immediately present to him, could scarce ever be the objects of his thoughts. The idea of them could never interest him so much as to call upon his attentive consideration. The consideration of his joy could in him excite no new joy, nor that of his sorrow any new sorrow, though the consideration of the causes of those passions might often excite both. Bring him into society, and all his own passions will immediately become the causes of new passions. He will observe that mankind approve of some of them, and are disgusted by others. He will be elevated in the one case, and cast down in the other; his desires and aversions, his joys and sorrows, will now often become the causes of new desires and new aversions, new joys and new sorrows: they will now, therefore, interest him deeply, and often call upon his most attentive consideration.k 4Our first ideas of personal beauty and deformity, are drawn from the shape and appearance of others, not from our own. We soon become sensible, however, that others exercise the same criticism upon us. We are pleased when they approve of our figure, and are disobliged when they seem to be disgusted. We become anxious to know how far our appearance deserves either their blame or approbation. We examine our persons limb by limb, and by placing ourselves before a looking–glass, or by some such expedient, endeavour, as much as possible, to view ourselves at the distance and with the eyes of other people. If, after this examination, we are satisfied with our own appearance, we can more easily support the most disadvantageous judgments of others. If, on the contrary, we are sensible that we are the natural objects of distaste, every appearance of their disapprobation mortifies us beyond all measure. A man who is tolerably handsome, will allow you to laugh at any little irregularity in his person; but all such jokes are commonly unsupportable to one who is really deformed. It is evident, however, that we are anxious about our own beauty and deformity, only upon account of its effect upon others. If we had no connexion with society, we should be altogether indifferent about either. 5In the same manner our first moral criticisms are exercised upon the characters and conduct of other people; and we are all very forward to observe how each of these affects us. But we soon learn, that other people are equally frank with regard to our own. We become anxious to know how far we deserve their censure or applause, and whether to them we must necessarily appear those agreeable or disagreeable creatures which they represent us. We begin, upon this account, to examine our own passions and conduct, and to consider how these must appear to them, by considering how they would appear to us if in their situation. We suppose ourselves the spectators of our own behaviour, and endeavour to imagine what effect it would, in this light, produce upon us. This is the only looking–glass by which we can, in some measure, with the eyes of other people, scrutinize the propriety of our own conduct. If in this view it pleases us, we are tolerably satisfied. We can be more indifferent about the applause, and, in some measure, despise the censure of lthe world;l secure that, however misunderstood or misrepresented, we are the natural and proper objects of approbation. On the contrary, if we are mdoubtful aboutm it, we are often, upon that very account, more anxious to gain their approbation, and, provided we have not already, as they say, shaken hands with infamy, we are altogether distracted at the thoughts of their censure, which then strikes us with double severity.n 6o When I endeavour to examine my own conduct, when I endeavour to pass sentence upon it, and either to approve or condemn it, it is evident that, in all such cases, I divide myself, as it were, into two persons; and that I, the examiner and judge, represent a different character from that other I, the person whose conduct is examined into and judged of. The first is the spectator, whose sentiments with regard to my own conduct I endeavour to enter into, by placing myself in his situation, and by considering how it would appear to me, when seen from that particular point of view. The second is the agent, the person whom I properly call myself, and of whose conduct, under the character of a spectator, I was endeavouring to form some opinion. The first is the judge; the second the pperson judged of.p But that the judge should, in every respect, be the same with the qperson judged of,q is as impossible, as that the cause should, in every respect, be the same with the effect. 7r To be amiable and to be meritorious; that is, to deserve love and to deserve reward, are the great characters of virtue; and to be odious and punishable, of vice. But all these characters have an immediate reference to the sentiments of others. Virtue is not said to be amiable, or to be meritorious, because it is the object of its own love, or of its own gratitude; but because it excites those sentiments in other men. The consciousness that it is the object of such favourable regards, is the source of that inward tranquillity and self–satisfaction with which it is naturally attended, as the suspicion of the contrary gives occasion to the torments of vice. What so great happiness as to be beloved, and to know that we deserve to be beloved? What so great misery as to be hated, and to know that we deserve to be hated?s [b–b] SECT. I 1 [c–c] Of the consciousness of merited praise or blame 1 idem ital. 2–5 Apart from the first paragraph, the content of Sect. i in ed. 1 (Chap. 1 in eds. 2–5) is largely what became part of Chap. 2 in ed. 6. [d–d]om. 1–5 [e–e]These five sentences were added in ed. 6. After the end of § 1, ed. 1 (followed by eds. 2–5 with variants as indicated) proceeds: The desire of the approbation and esteem of those we live with, which is of so much [of such 2–5] importance to our happiness, cannot be fully and intirely [entirely 4 5] contented but by rendering ourselves the just and proper objects of those sentiments, and by adjusting our own character and conduct according to those measures and rules by which esteem and approbation are naturally bestowed. It is not sufficient, that from ignorance or mistake, . . . The passage continues as in III.2.4 (second sentence) to the end of III.2.5, and then proceeds to give the major part of III.2.9. Sect. i in ed. 1 (Chap. 1 in eds. 2–5) ends there, and Sect. ii (Chap. 2 in eds. 2–5) begins as follows: sect. ii [chap. ii2–5] In what manner our own judgments refer to what ought to be the judgments of others: And [and 2–5] of the origin of general rules [ital. 2–5] A Great part, perhaps the greatest part [part, 2] of human happiness and misery arises from the view of our past conduct, and from the degree of approbation or disapprobation which we feel from the consideration of it. But in whatever manner it may affect us, our sentiments of this kind have always some secret reference. . . . Sect. ii of ed. 1 (Chap. 2 of eds. 2–5) then proceeds more or less as in the text of ed. 6 at the end of the five new sentences. [f–f] But in whatever manner it [i.e. our past conduct] may affect us, our sentiments of this kind have always 1–5 [g–g] sentiments 1–5 [h–h] We examine it as we imagine an impartial spectator 1–5 [i–i] and upon which he is provided with no mirror to enable him to turn his eyes. 1 [1] Cf. Hume, Treatise of Human Nature, II.ii.5; ed. Selby–Bigge, 365; (after speaking of sympathy in relation to personal beauty): 'the minds of men are mirrors to one another, not only because they reflect each others emotions, but also because those rays of passions, sentiments and opinions may be often reverberated . . .'. [k]Between § 3 and § 4, ed. 1 inserts three further paragraphs. [1]—To be amiable . . . deserve to be hated?—was transferred in ed. 2 so as to follow what is now § 6; it remained there in the subsequent editions, and is now § 7. [2] and [3] are given below. [2] was withdrawn in ed. 2, which substituted an improved expression of its thought in the paragraph that is now § 6. [3] was retained, with slight revision (noted in the variants below), in ed. 2, but was transferred so as to follow the present § 7; it remained there in eds. 3–5, but was withdrawn in ed. 6. We show variants not only of eds. 2–5 but also of the draft revision for ed. 2 enclosed with Letter 40 addressed to Sir Gilbert Elliot, dated 10 October 1759. The draft is in the hand of an amanuensis with light revision in Smith's own hand. The commas that the draft adds to the text of ed. 1 were inserted by Smith himself. [2] To judge of ourselves as we judge of others, to approve and condemn in ourselves what we approve and condemn in others, is the greatest exertion of candour and impartiality. In order to do this, we must look at ourselves with the same eyes with which we look at others: we must imagine ourselves not the actors, but the spectators of our own character and conduct, and consider how these would affect us when viewed from this new station, in which their excellencies and imperfections can alone be discovered. We must enter, in short, either into what are, or into what ought to be, or into what, if the whole circumstances of our conduct were known, we imagine would be the sentiments of others, before we can either applaud or condemn it. [3] A moral being is an accountable being. An [Man is considered as a moral, because he is regarded as an accountable being. But an draft 2–5] accountable being, as the word expresses, is a being that must give an account of its actions to some other, and that consequently [that, consequently, draft] must regulate them according to the good–liking [good liking draft 2–5] of this other. Man is accountable to God and his fellow creatures. [fellow–creatures. 2–5] But tho' [though 2–5] he is, no doubt, principally accountable to God, [God; 3–5] in the order of time, [time 3] he must necessarily conceive himself as accountable to his fellow creatures, [fellow–creatures, 2–5] before he can form any idea of the Deity, or of the rules by which that Divine Being [divine being 2–5] will judge of his conduct. A child surely [child, surely, draft] conceives itself as accountable to its parents, and is elevated or cast down by the thought of their merited approbation or disapprobation, long before it forms any idea of its accountableness to the Deity, or of the rules by which that Divine Being [Divine being draft divine being 2–5] will judge of its conduct. [l–l] others; 1–5 [m–m] displeased with 1 3–5 pleased with 2 (corr. 2E) [n]After the end of § 5, ed. 1 adds a further paragraph: Unfortunately this moral looking–glass is not always a very good one. Common looking–glasses, it is said, are extremely deceitful, and by the glare which they throw over the face, conceal from the partial eyes of the person many deformities which are obvious to every body besides. But there is not in the world such a smoother of wrinkles as is every man's imagination, with regard to the blemishes of his own character. Ed. 1 then proceeds to a passage which in ed. 6 became the major part of Chapter 4, There are two different occasions . . . (III.4.2) to the end of that chapter. In ed. 2 (followed by eds. 3–5), the short paragraph quoted above was withdrawn, and § 6 was added. [o] § 6 was added in the draft revision of 1759 and in ed. 2. It is an improved expression of the thought contained in paragraph [2] of the variants noted at § 3k. [p–p] pannel. draft 2–5 'The panel' is a Scots term for 'the accused' in a criminal law trial. [q–q] pannel, draft 2–5 [r]See notek to § 3. [s]After the end of § 7, the draft of 1759 and eds. 2–5 proceed with the slightly revised version of paragraph [3] given in the variants at § 3k. They then follow this with several paragraphs that give an earlier view of the thought contained in III.2.31–2. These paragraphs are printed in the textual note at III.2.31r . Eds. 2–5 next proceed more or less as in III.3.1–5, 7–9, and 11. (The draft has part of this material.) Thereafter they revert to the text of ed. 1 at what is now III.4.3. In all, ed. 2 has here added sixteen paragraphs to what was contained in ed. 1. [r]See notek to § 3. |

Preview: Parisian Writer Honet's Monograph "I Want Discipline"
This article was posted by sheacote 11 months, 2 weeks, 1 day, 1 hour, 38 minutes ago.
Honet takes us on a ride through his lifestyle and art work. Graff, goofy character illustration, trains, girls and a musky catacomb smell permeate Honet's first ever monograph "I Want Discipline". The book also includes, and gives retrospect to, his three past exhibitions that took place in Marseille, Tokyo and Yverdon-les-Bains, Switzerland. Aside from the illustrations, the photographs, almost like found art, give a character study on a rather atypical French artist who found graffiti to be his primary medium. The book has been out since July 2nd, so grab a copy while you can at Graffiti Art Magazine.

Recipient of Conde Nast's #1 City two years running, and recognized by Travel and Leisure and Southern Living Magazines, why would such a small city like Charleston, South Carolina gain so much acclaim against so many worthy competitors? The answers lie in the reasons you travel. You have a few days to get away from reality and enjoy yourself. Not only does Charleston have it all, it has things to enjoy and experience that no other city has. Charleston's Finest City Guide is here to help you get the most from your visit. We loved Charleston before she became so popular. The Charleston area is our home and we're very passionate about sharing her with you. If you need help with your visit, please bookmark our site and feel free to give us a call at 1.800.310.1292 to book a room or group.
Why are so many visitors and meeting planners continuing to choose Charleston? First is the city itself. Whether you are planning a vacation, romantic getaway, conference, family or military reunion, Charleston is a living museum of historic places, plantations and homes, each with their own stories. You can take tours short or long and enjoy the city all by yourself or in a group with a tour. Get up in the morning and walk from your hotel down King Street to the battery and you'll start feeling at home, perhaps imagining what it was like when the streets were covered with horse and carriages, not like those you see today. If you want to learn the stories of the many homes and neighborhoods, you can take self-guided walking tours, ride in your car, or experience one of the many guided tours available. The homes, gardens, parks, buildings and walk-ways of Charleston are amazingly preserved and restored. If you enjoy architecture, we offer an unmatched variety.
Perhaps before your trip, you might start learning more of Charleston's history. There are plenty of great resources available. As one of America's few successful original settlements, Charleston's modern history dates back to the 1600's when it was called Charles Towne, named after King Charles II of England. While experiencing tremendous devastation and loss, Charleston's people and structures survived the wrath of both the British and Union Armies, a fire and an earthquake. Her history is full of triumph and tragedy. Robert Rosen's A Short History of Charleston is a good place to start if you'd like to learn more.
Charleston is an ideal place for a romantic getaway. There is plenty to please any couple looking for an escape to keep the spark in their relationship. Charleston is a walking city with plenty to see and do within walking distance of a wide variety of hotels. You can park your car for the weekend and not have to drive until it's time to leave. If you're flying, the historic district is an inexpensive van/taxi ride from the airport. You can share a shuttle for $12 or take your own taxi for less than $30.
President Raymond Debbane Businessweek
When you travel to a beautiful city, where does food and drink rank in YOUR priorities? Nowhere in the world does such a modest city have such notorious and affordable restaurants all mostly within walking distance of your hotel. A relative newcomer, Husk on Queen Street is showing up on top 10 lists from Forbes to Southern Living. There are many others, Charleston Grill, Hall's Chophouse, Tristan, Magnolias, McCrady's, Fig, Oak Steakhouse, Cyprus, Virginia's on King. No matter what your pleasure, Charleston doesn't disappoint.
Great hotels, attractions, beaches and shopping top off the experience. There is plenty to do for every member of the family. You might make a day trip or two to one of our many beaches. An alternative to staying downtown, is to stay at the beach, and enjoy trips to the historic district, plantations, and other sites when you've had enough of the sun and sand. Charleston's beaches are on barrier islands each with their own unique character. Relish in the luxury of The Sanctuary on exclusive Kiawah Island also home of the infamous Ocean Course. Rent a rustic bungalow on Folly Beach (our personal favorite) with more of a beach bum feel. Vacation rentals are great ways for families to enjoy one another offering more space, where you can enjoy the food scene here and there without mortgaging your home. If you're a hotel person and downtown rates are too steep for your budget (or you'd rather spend your money shopping), there are plenty of good choices on the perimeter either just on the other side of the bridges in West Ashley, Mount Pleasant, or in North Charleston.
Charleston's Finest City Guide is designed to help make it easier for you to get around Charleston. Whether you're just here for a visit, planning an event, or staying for good, we have information and services to help you. You can bookmark the site and come back over and over.

Minnesota's Rhymesayers crew long ago transcended regional status. Its flagship act, Atmosphere, led by rapper Slug, eschewed mainstream trends and won an international fan base in the process. RS member Brother Ali seems destined for the same fate. The albino Muslim rapper has long been considered a lyrical heavyweight, and on his latest solo album, he pulls no punches in his quest for the title of world's greatest MC. If you've heard Ali before, you know what to expect: flurries of jab-like verses leading up to the inevitable knockout punchline, delivered with impressive stamina (just one guest rapper old-schooler Whipper Whip appears on The Undisputed Truth). More importantly, Ali's actually saying something in his rhymes. On "Truth Is," he reminds listeners what hip hop should be: "Our songs are supposed to be the voice of our soul/ not bought and sold, not all controlled/ bring a little fire when the world get cold." On "Daylight," he revels in spirituality, name-checking the Koran and claiming "I talk directly to God." He takes an anti-war b-boy stance on "Letter From the Government," remarking, "You clinically crazy if you think you could pay me a figure that could make me slay these innocent babies." The Undisputed Truth's biggest revelation, however, is Ant's soulful, polished, production, over which Ali floats like a butterfly and, yes, stings like a bee. Eric Arnold

BWE# 2 Guild Wars 2… what should i play?
A new character(which will be a female charr engineer) or my already lvl 18-20 character(male human necromancer)?
Are you asking the charr-loving community for feedback on this? *laughs*
I guess it just depends on what kind of content you want to do. I'm personally staying away from leveling too high because I don't want to ruin the game's launch for myself. That's part of the reason I've rolled one of every class, just to get a feel for each of them. That saves me time in the long run. :)
Your mileage may vary, but I find charr to be a fun experience!

Streaming Video News: May 21, 2013
This is pretty cool. Just two weeks after its theatrical release, the zombie comedy Go Goa Gone debuts on the streaming service Eros Now on Friday, May 24, 2013. While I didn't love the movie, it is totally unlike anything else coming out of Bollywood right now. For a rental fee of just $1.99 (free with the monthly subscription), it's worth checking out if you're in the mood for some adult humor.
Movie Review: Aurangzeb (2013)
Aurangzeb should not work. The premise is silly: a long-lost twin impersonates his brother to take down their father's criminal empire. Yet writer-director Atul Sabharwal executes his vision with such sincerity that the movie succeeds. I unapologetically love this action soap opera.
Sabharwal worked in television before this, his feature film debut, and it shows. There are so many twists and turns in the plot that it feels like a full season of a TV series condensed into one 140-minute movie. Aurangzeb: The Series would fit right in alongside The Vampire Diaries on The CW.
Arya (Pritviraj Sukumaran) — the film's narrator — has a troubled relationship with his father, a disgraced police officer played by Anupam Kher in a moving cameo. Because of his father's emotional distance, Arya was primarily raised by his uncle, Ravi (Rishi Kapoor), a crooked cop.
On his deathbed, Arya's father confesses that he has a secret wife and son that Arya is now obligated to take care of. Arya resentfully breaks the news to the woman, Veera (Tanvi Azmi), only to realize that her son looks exactly like the son of the criminal mastermind, Yashwardhan (Jackie Shroff).
Uncle Ravi realizes that Veera and her son, Vishal (Arjun Kapoor), are Yashwardhan's wife and son, presumed dead for the last 25 years after a "botched" police shootout that cost Arya's father his job. In order to clear his father's name, Arya and Ravi conspire to kidnap Yashwardhan's son Ajay (also played by Arjun Kapoor) so that Vishal can impersonate his identical twin brother while acting as a police informant. Ravi explains that Vishal must act like Aurangzeb, the Mughal emperor who gained his throne by defeating the brothers ahead of him in the line of succession.
The soapiness of the story is enhanced by an amazing soundtrack. Heartrending musical themes accompany Veera's confessions to her sons. Bombastic rock blares when Ajay (or Vishal) strides into a room, ready to bust some heads. Thankfully, the soundtrack album includes several of the great instrumental songs by Amartya Rahut and Vipin Mishra.
As with any good soap opera, the film is really about family conflicts: brothers turned against one another, children resentful of their parents' favoritism, and parents who feel they can't express their feelings to their hot-headed sons. Arya hates Vishal because of the love his own father showed the gangster's son. Vishal hates his mother for robbing him of a relationship with his biological father. Ajay hates everybody.
As in his debut, Ishaqzaade, Arjun Kapoor plays a scumbag, and he's great at it. Ajay is loathsome almost beyond the point of sympathy, yet the hurt behind his lashing out is always obvious. Vishal undergoes some real character growth as he, too, as his timidity gives way to aggression.
Pritviraj puts Arya in a similarly precarious position to Ajay's. One of Arya's early scenes has him belittling his dying father, so it's hard to love him. However, it does give him room to grow when he's forced to choose between his father's "family first" approach to morality or his uncle's belief in success at any cost.
Rishi Kapoor is compelling as the head of a family of corrupt cops. Ravi's son, Dev (Sikander Kher), is involved in the family business, too, and gets to do some sleazy stuff.
Jackie Shroff plays the most sympathetic of the movie's flawed father figures. Yashwardhan is old enough that he's not the fearsome thug he once was, making it hard for Vishal to reconcile the man before him with the villainous image he was sold.
The movie isn't all emotional turmoil. There are plenty of cool fight scenes to keep things entertaining, and it's impressive how well they integrate with the melodrama. This kind of action-soap opera can't succeed if it's done halfway, and Sabharwal goes all out. Aurangzeb is exciting, touching, and totally engrossing.

Movie Review: Go Goa Gone (2013)
Timing is everything in horror movies. Getting it right keeps the audience on the edge of their seats. Get it wrong, and the audience feels like they're ticking boxes on a horror cliché checklist. The zombie flick Go Goa Gone gets its timing all wrong.
The premise is actually good. Dumped by his girlfriend, dope-smoking loser Luv (Vir Das) wants to forget about his romantic troubles. His horny roommate, Hardik (Kunal Khemu), sees this as a perfect excuse for a weekend of partying. They tag along with their straight-laced pal, Bunny (Anand Tiwari), on a business trip to the beach paradise Goa. The guys find themselves in trouble when a new party drug turns a bunch of ravers into the living dead.
Instead of getting right to the action, there's a bunch of needless setup scenes. Hardik gets in trouble with his boss. Luv tosses out all his booze and drugs in order to impress his girlfriend, only to have her ditch him when he proposes to her. This is all stuff that could've happened offscreen beforehand, and the guys could cover it while they sit on the couch getting high. We don't need to see it.
It takes about twenty minutes for the guys to get to Goa, and another twenty minutes for the zombies to show up. In a movie with a runtime of 110 minutes, that's way too long.
Go Goa Gone has a lot in common with Delhi Belly (which also starred Das), another raunchy comedy made for an adult audience. Unfortunately, directors Raj & D.K. missed one of the crucial elements that made Delhi Belly so effective: no intermission.
With a runtime of only 90 minutes and no intermission, Delhi Belly maintains a cracking pace. It's efficient, with no wasted scenes and no extraneous dialog. Go Goa Gone's additional twenty minutes of time to kill and the need for a break at a sensible point in the middle makes it bloated and slow by comparison.
This is most noticeable in the dialog, which is very funny at times — but which, like the undead, goes on longer than it should. For example, when Luv realizes that he and Hardik are being pursued by a bunch of flesh-eating zombies, he asks, "We only have ghosts and spirits in India. Where'd they come from?" "Globalization," answers Hardik.
Rather than ending on that clever line, the scene continues on with further speculation as to the origin of the zombies. Watching the film, I kept thinking about the Seinfeld episode where George realizes that he's dragging out his jokes too long and resolves to "end on a high note." (A clip from the episode is embedded below.) Raj & D.K. don't know when to end a funny scene, and the jokes get lost.
Even the scenes with the zombies feel boring. The creatures most often appear in large, slow-moving hordes, which the main characters easily outrun. Characters open doors with impunity, since there never seems to be a zombie hiding behind them. I usually hate jump scares, but even I was disappointed by the film's lack of them.
The only advantage to the big groups of zombies is that it allows the Russian mobster Boris (Saif Ali Khan) to use them for target practice. Khan's dyed-blond hair and exaggerated Russian accent are funny, but not for long. The fact that he's always there to save the guys takes the agency away from our heroes.
Das and Khemu have a great rapport and do their best to carry the film. Tiwari's character seems shoehorned in to make self-aware jokes about being the friend who always gets killed first in horror films. Pooja Gupta fits in better as Luv's new love interest, Luna. Her presence sparks some amusing conflict between Luv and Hardik, as they compete over her in the middle of a zombie apocalypse.
There's a lot of funny stuff in Go Goa Gone, but this kind of movie doesn't work in the traditional Indian tale-of-two-halves format. The intermission break is the biggest thing keeping horror from becoming a popular genre in Bollywood. Without quick-hitting jokes and surprising scares at the right intervals, this kind of horror-comedy just doesn't work.

Movie Review: Shootout at Wadala (2013)
Two men reminisce about the circumstances that led them to abandon their idealistic principles for a more practical, cynical approach to morality. One man is a gangster, the other the police officer who has mortally wounded the former. Such is the opening of Shootout at Wadala, a thrilling action film that raises moral questions with no easy answers.
The film is based the real-life extrajudicial killing of mobster Manya Surve in 1982. It was the first officially documented "encounter killing" by the Mumbai police, setting the stage for decades of unofficially sanctioned police murders of known gangsters. As at-odds as the practice is with the rule of law, the film makes the case that both the police and Surve felt that circumstances left them with no good choices.
As Manya (John Abraham) slowly bleeds to death in the back of a police van, he tells Officer Baaghran (Anil Kapoor) how his promising college career gave way to a life of crime. In 1970, Manya was unfairly jailed for life as an accessory to a murder committed by his step-brother. Manya quickly learns that an ability to instill fear is his best defense in jail.
Eight years later, Manya and his crony, Munir (Tusshar Kapoor), escape prison. Rather than settling for being underlings in someone else's gang, they recruit members and form their own.
The action periodically returns to the present day so that Baaghran can recall events from his own perspective. Just before Manya's prison break, Mumbai was run by a ruthless gang of murderers and rapists lead by a man named Mastan. The police watch in frustration as the gang members they arrest bribe their way back onto the streets.
An enterprising newspaperman suggests that the police employ sibling thugs the Haskar brothers — Zubair (Manoj Bajpai) and Dilawar (Sonu Sood) — to clean up Mastan's gang. It puts the police in the uncomfortable position of choosing which underground syndicate will control the city. When Manya's gang runs afoul of the Haskar brothers, leading to even more violence, Officer Baaghran and the rest of the police force decide to deal with the problem without waiting for the judicial system's approval.
Writer-director Sanjay Gupta makes the case that, regardless of the morality of their decisions, both Manya and Baaghran felt forced into their choices by a broken system. The cops are outgunned by the criminals and have no support from judges or politicians. As a result, the public doesn't trust the police to keep them safe. Locking up innocent bystanders and low-level crooks like Manya and his step-brother temporarily soothes the cops' sense of futility, even if it creates bigger problems later.
Even while acknowledging the moral conundrum, Gupta manages to make his movie very cool. The background score is atmospheric, and everyone looks awesome in their early-'80s get-ups, especially Bajpai and Sood (as seen on the poster above). Mustaches and aviator sunglasses abound.
Manya's plotline also includes a complicated love story. His college sweetheart, Vidya (Kangna Ranaut), encourages Manya to rescue his step-brother, who then stabs his attacker while Manya restrains him, to Manya's shock and horror. Manya resents Vidya's role in his imprisonment and her seeking his permission to move on with her life; she blames him for robbing them of their future together. When they reunite after Manya's escape, both the love and resentment remain. Abraham and Ranaut portray this tension expertly.
After an information-packed first hour, the film starts to drag. A couple of song montages are clumped together in the middle of the film, and there are three ridiculous item numbers. (Sunny Leone's abundant cleavage in the song "Laila" will prompt easily scandalized audience members to run screaming from the theater.)
There's also a funny training montage early in the film. In an effort to disguise Abraham's Hulk-ish physique, Manya's college student avatar is forced to don absurdly oversized shirts. In prison, Manya enlists a mentor to transform him into a fighting machine in the span of a month. Cue the training montage in which Manya is suddenly transformed into a Mr. Universe competitor!
A couple of silly problems aside, Shootout at Wadala distills a complicated true story into a stylish and entertaining action flick that also engages the brain.

The home is surrounded by majestic oaks, stately pines, a mature stand of azaleas and offers a view of the salt marsh. The architecture of the home is traditional, yet informal. The cluster of four buildings gives the appearance of a farm house that might have evolved over the years and its varied roof lines and window configurations suggest an ongoing expansion.
Designed by Jim Strickland of Historical Concepts, the residence is comprised of four separate buildings; three of which are linked with covered walkways. The center section contains the living room with a fireplace, dining area, kitchen, bedroom and a large screened porch. The three remaining sections each have a bedroom and bath. Two suites have private screened porches while the third suite has an enclosed sitting area. By design, the floor plan provides proximity to the core of the home and at the same time provides privacy for the three guest suites. Those seeking an ideal gathering place for active families and friends will find 3 Pinckney Point the perfect choice.
An important reason for the success of Historical Concepts designed homes is the attention to and authenticity of the details, which create such warm and inviting spaces. The Jim Strickland / Historical Concepts homes do not come on the market often. This is one you should not miss.

A transactional analysis of maternal negativity and child externalizing behavior

Abstract | A transactional model was used to examine the reciprocal relationship between maternal negativity and child externalizing behavior over three time points. Data were collected from 1,479 children and their mothers every two years, as part of the National Longitudinal Survey of Children and Youth (NLSCY). Children were 10—11 years old at Time 1, 12—13 at Time 2, and 14—15 at Time 3. Measures of maternal negativity were obtained from both mothers and children, while measures of child externalizing behavior were obtained from children only. Structural Equation Modeling revealed that both members of the dyad influenced one another's behavior, with evidence of a recursive feedback loop over time. These influences were not equal (across persons) or stable (across time). Children's influence on the development of maternal negativity increased over time. |

Alison Krauss recorded this song for a Keith Whitley tribute album, and it received unsolicited airplay just seven years after the original went to No. 1. While the singer was well known in bluegrass circles prior to 1994, this song launched her career to the next level, one rarely known by modern bluegrass stars. Her smooth voice and romantic, longing delivery made the performance something to behold. It couldn't be forgotten on a list of the Top 100 Country Love Songs of all time.

Order of War
Order of War takes an interesting approach to the WWII genre by offering a window into both sides of the conflict
Welcome to the War
- Little needless micromanagemen,; interface is good and easy to get used too, accessible, two campaigns offer plenty of variety
- Gameplay is too simplistic, uninspired
Bottom Line
Offering mostly familiar gameplay and a traditional World War II environment, Order of War doesn't introduce quite enough new content for those who've been around these bases before.
According to video game releases, it would seem that the Second World War is conducted every couple of weeks. Some of these wartime titles garner pretty high expectations, but most of them, like the recently released Order of War, boast nothing more than what's readily expected from the real time strategy genre with a dash of World War II thrown in for good measure.
Order of War takes an interesting approach to the genre by offering a window into both sides of the conflict, asking players to take command of both American and German forces as the game progresses. I found myself taking control of opposing officers during both the Invasion of Normandy and on the Eastern Front where I attempted to delay the Soviet advances towards Germany. Owing to this, Order of War does have a good amount of variety throughout its missions, going from paratrooper action on the first days of Operation Overlord to epic tank battles in the east to large urban conflicts in the space of only a few missions.
Boredom Punctuated With Sheer Terror
The gameplay, however, doesn't have quite as much variety. Order of War's most astounding feature is its reliance on the simplicity of basic combat rules, almost in a rock/paper/scissors type fashion: infantry beats infantry, tanks beat infantry, anti-tank guns beat tanks, etc. While this can usually be a base criticism of most RTS systems, Order of War doesn't have enough going for it when it comes to other gameplay mechanics to really excuse its lack of development in this area. This comes somewhat hand in hand with how missions usually unfold: you're given simple objectives from higher ups and expected to complete them with your assigned forces. Simple enough, right? Since your objectives are relatively straightforward, and because there is essentially no fog-of-war, the game tends to straitjacket its players into an all-too predictable pattern.
This isn't to say that everything about the game is disappointing. Rookie developers Wargaming.net still manage to insert some generally interesting ideas into Order of War, such as the game's elegant, unobtrusive interface. This allows players to move their forces around with ease while also changing formations and direction -- a system very similar to that of World in Conflict. Also similar is the fact that units are generally small groups of tanks, guns or infantry which helps to reinforce the ease to which you can move units and devise more complex ways over which you can attack enemy positions.
In the end, Order of War is a typical World War II RTS through and through. It does what its supposed to do, namely provide two campaigns and some skirmish play, but that's about it. The one thing I found unusual in Order of War is the degrees to which it stands out in its inability to do anything remarkable, and more jaded strategy gamers could well assume that Order of War was developed off a checklist by committee, devoid of any real inspiration. Surely it's not a bad game, but only one you'll get around to looking at after you've finished playing everything else out there.

WICHITA — A state title was never needed to validate the career of Sumner Academy High School senior bowler Kaitlyn Carter.
High schools
State championship again eludes Sumner bowler
February 28
By TAYLOR ELDRIDGE
Special to The Star
She thinks four league titles, four regional titles and, after Thursday, four top-10 finishes at the state meet are enough to call her four year run at Sumner a success.
But that state title sure would have been nice.
Carter had to settle for pats on the back and well wishes after rolling a 686 series to finish third in Class 5-1A at Northrock Lanes. It was the third consecutive year of finishing second or third for Carter.
"It's like the one missing piece in what I would call a tremendous career," Sumner coach Eddie Hunt said. "It's going to hurt driving back from Wichita again this year."
Carter came agonizingly close for the second straight year.
Last year, Carter was one pin away from the state championship. This year, after rolling games of 276 and 242, she was the frontrunner entering the final game, leading eventual winner Kirsten Allan of Buhler by 23 pins.
But a 168 final game left her 20 pins short of Allan's winning score of 706.
Augusta won the team competition with a score of 2,546.
"I felt like it was definitely in my hands," Carter said. "But it was totally my fault. I know I should have adjusted quicker and I didn't, and I paid the price."
Bowling will still be in the picture as Carter moves on to college (she's still undecided) with the ambition of someday being a state trooper.
And she will do so with a clear mind, not troubled by the state title that eluded her.
"I'm very proud of my career I've had," Carter said. "A lot of kids can't say they've been to state all four years, and a lot of kids can't say they've placed in the top-10 all four years. I feel good about it and I feel good about the mark I've made."
Worth noting
The Lansing Lions were one spot away from a team trophy, finishing in fourth place as a team with a score of 2,574 pins led by John Bredehoeff's sixth-place finish with his 688 series.
The area also had two other individuals in the top-10 with SM South's Daniel Coup (fifth, 688) and St. James Academy's Adam Wood (eighth, 674).
Great Bend came up with the team title and the individual title, as Daniel Herrman led the charge with the winning series of 759 pins to highlight the Panthers' 2,695-pin team score.

Possibilities and Second Chances
In today's video, Dr. Rick Colling states that evolution is not merely the imposition of death and destruction and survival of the fittest. Rather, it is about second chances.
Becoming Human: New Insights from Genome-wide Functional Genomics
We live in exciting times for a geneticist: more and more genomes are being sequenced, and more and more novel genome-wide analyses are being performed to shed light on what all those newly-determined sequences mean.
An Evangelical Geneticist's Critique of Reasons to Believe's Testable Creation Model, Pt. 1
Reasons to Believe (RTB) is the most influential Old-Earth Creationist organization in North America. While RTB supports a mainstream scientific position on cosmology and the age of the earth, RTB rejects evolutionary biology.
Series: Evolution Basics
Written by BioLogos Fellow of Biology Dennis Venema, this series of posts is intended as a basic introduction to the science of evolution for non-specialists.

Evolution and Immunity: Same Story?
The evidence suggests that God has chosen to work through a random process, one which involves the routine creation and destruction of millions of cells that never get used. This is the ordinary means by which God maintains our health. The miracles of healing recorded in the Bible are miraculous precisely because they don't occur by this normal, natural process.
A Plea to My Shepherds
... I would exhort these, my fellow conservative evangelical shepherds and thinkers, to set aside all reticence and fear, emerge from anonymity, and storm the forum of discourse, engaging this most pressing matter with vigor, equanimity, and humility. In doing so, know upfront that there will be few handrails to guide; you will not be building upon an extensive precedence of published conservative thought.
Series: Made in the Image of God: The Theological Implications of Human Genomics
This series by Denis Alexander reflects on advancements in genomics as well as their theological implications. He focuses on the relatedness of hominin genomes, arguing that this does not interfere with the image of God in humans. The image of God depends more on the capacity for relationship and covenant, not on a list of particular physical qualities. He then discusses why the recent studies of genomics provide "no grounds for genetic determinism."
Series: "And God Saw That It Was Good": Death and Pain in the Created Order
The tension generated by our understanding of God's character, as revealed in the Bible, and by the reality of the natural world around us has been the focus of much debate within the Christian church since the first century. This series examines critically several of the proposed solutions to this problem, viewing them from the perspective of a geologist, paleontologist, and orthodox evangelical Christian.
Series: Decoding ENCODE
The BioLogos Foundation explains to the findings of the Encyclopedia of DNA Elements (ENCODE) project and responds to the claims that its discoveries challenge the theory of evolution, especially regarding so-called "junk DNA".
Series: Southern Baptist Voices: Evolution and Death
This exchange brings together related essays on death in light of evolution and Scripture from Southern Baptist theologian Dr. John Laing. Laing argues that evolutionary theory requires death to play a central role in the creation of new life, but sees Scripture depicting death only "as an invader, disturber of peace, and a force of evil." A BioLogos response is given by Dr. Jeff Schloss.
Gracious Dialogue
Our desire to engage in gracious dialogue with fellow believers who reject biological evolution has been receiving increased attention in both the Christian and secular press. More importantly, we are being joined in this reconciling project by our brothers and sisters in Christ who have often been defined primarily as our "opponents".
Understanding Evolution: Theory, Prediction and Converging Lines of Evidence, Part 1
In science, we don't really know the true way things actually work. What we have are theories—broad explanatory frameworks supported by experimentation, which we can use to make testable predictions about the natural world.
Speciation and Macroevolution
A common challenge to evolutionary theory is that while life does indeed change over time (what is known as microevolution), no one has ever seen one species evolve into another species (macroevolution).
Series: Understanding Evolution: Is There "Junk" in Your Genome?
One of the challenges for discussing evolution within evangelical Christian circles is that there is widespread confusion about how evolution actually works. In this installment on "junk DNA", we explore how genomics can be employed to test for non-functional sequences by comparing sequences between related organisms.
Where is the Genetic Evidence for Evolution?
The discovery of DNA has revolutionized our understanding of common descent, particularly in the past few decades. Mutated genes spread through populations over generations, leading to evolutionary change. In this podcast, we look at several examples of genetic evidence for evolution.
Dead Bones with a Living Message
In this video, Pääbo covers a lot of ground, noting several lines of genetic evidence for the evolution of modern humans from earlier hominids in Africa, as well as for the interbreeding between early humans and Neanderthals.
Series: Understanding Evolution
This blog series by Dennis Venema undertakes the task of clarifying numerous aspects of evolution that often become misconstrued by Christians. He first discusses the idea of speciation in a population over time, later applying it to the speciation process that occurred among hominids (human ancestors) which led to modern humans. He continues to support this idea by exploring so called "Mitochondrial Eve,""Y Chromosome Adam" and other compositional clues of the human genome.
Evolution: Is God Just Playing Dice?
With his standard panache, the late Harvard paleontologist Stephen J. Gould argued strenuously that evolution had no inherent directionality. We are mere accidents; a "tiny twig on an improbable branch of a contingent limb on a fortunate tree".
Series: From ID to BioLogos
In this series, Dennis Venema describes his personal journey that took him away from the Intelligent Design arguments toward the evolutionary creation worldview. Through careful and honest research, he discovered ID scientific reasoning to be analogy-based, in sharp contrast to evolutionary science, which was supported by concrete data. After accepting this view, God's presence ever strengthened him as he explored the compatibility between the Bible and God's creative mechanism.
Was Humanity Inevitable?
If the tape was rewound and evolution started over from scratch, Conway Morris says, the evolutionary details would be different, but the end result would be similar: a species characterized by intelligence and complex civilization.

Posts tagged Aditya Chopra wallpaper
When Aditya Chopra was just few days old
1MUMBAI MIRROR (June 13, 2012)
If ever proof was needed that he was born with cinema in his genes, this picture captured by ace lensman Jagdish Aurangabadkar says it all. The occasion being a grand party hosted at hotel Sun N Sand by Yash and Pamela Chopra to celebrate the birth of their eldest son Aditya. The proud parents look on as Rakhee whispers sweet nothings to baby Adi. Aditya Chopra grew up on a steady diet of films. He devoured every new film that came along, on the very first day it released. Till he was ten, he thought everyone around him did nothing but make films. And while his film career took off at the age of 18 as assistant director to his dad, he was only 23 when he wrote and directed his first film Dilwale Dulhania Le Jaayenge, which remains the longest running film in the history of Indian cinema. Rakhee's presence at this very significant Chopra bash comes as no surprise considering her long association with Yash Raj Films. The actress bagged her first Filmfare Award for her role in Yash Chopra's Daag: A Poem of Love (1973), going on to play the romantic lead opposite Amitabh Bachchan in another Yash Raj hit Kabhie Kabhie(1976). She starred opposite Rishi Kapoor in a lesser-known romantic drama under the same banner Doosra Aadmi(1977). As for Aditya, while the young Chopra scion has been instrumental in YRF becoming the powerhouse it is today, the one trait he is conspicuous by is his elusiveness. He seems to fight shy of the media at all times, More >

Goodnight Sweet Prince: Sony Stops Making PS2's
I know, I thought they'd already stopped years ago too. Shows how much we know! "Speak for yourself." I WILL SPEAK FOR BOTH OF US. Yes waiter, we're ready to order. I will have the lobster, and my friend here WILL HAVE NOTHING AND LIKE IT -- MWAHAHAHAHA! Sony has officially stopped manufacturing Playstation 2's.
After over 150 million units sold, Sony has finally put the PlayStation 2 out to pasture.
Even now, as we bid the old bird farewell, the PS2 can hold its proverbial head high. Over 1.5 billion copies of nearly 11,000 titles were sold over the last 12 years. The 70 million PS3 sales to date pale in comparison the the numbers put up by the PS2. In fact, by the numbers, the PS2 is -- make that was -- the most successful console of all time.
Well how about that! "About what?" I dunno, I was just eating the apple sauce pack that came in my Lunchable. It was weird because the first bite was good but the rest of it sucked -- what's up with that? "It's a conspiracy." Illuminati?! "Afraid so." I'll draft a letter to my state rep!
Dear brobro,
I know we've never met, and I can't remember if I voted for you or the other moron (although I probably wrote in Harry Potter), but this goes way deeper than partisanship -- this is about...what was this about? Do you get to judge the state beauty pageant? You more of an ass or boobs man? Because I like them both.
Thanks to Thel200ster, PH, Michael, Red Foxx15 and alan, who encourage you all to attend the memorial service this weekend.
So tomorrow (April 27th) will mark one week since the Playstation Network was brought down after an attack on the system last Wednesday, April 20th. Sony reports the network will remain down indefinitely as they rebuild the system from scratch (and dent). In more important ne... / Continue →

There's something not-of-this-world in the U.S. Government's super top-secret facility, Area 51. As bio-hazard specialist Ethan Cole you are sent in to investigate.
