The Next Chapter
Fringe writer-director Akiva Goldsman and stars John Noble, Leonard Nimoy, Lance Redd*ck, and Jasika Nicole discuss the season 2 finale, "Over There, Part 2" and what the future might hold for season 3.
Season 2 Pre-order? Why wait?
I think most of us would agree that despite some slow patches and a rocky production start, one that involved the loss of much loved fan-favorite character "Agent Charlie Francis" played by Kirk Acevedo, Season 2 definitely improved over the first. Primarily, I think, by the writer's embracing of the alternate universe stories which comprise the show's true "mythology". They're definitely not trying to stretch this out over say, six years. *cough* Lost *cough* But then again you never know what Abrams and co. are cooking up. Down to business.
Any readers in the UK area (Region 2) you have a firm release set for Sep 27, 2010 followed by Region 4 on Oct 27, 2010. Unfortunately, us here in Region 1 as well as Region's 3 and 5 fall into the unknown category for now, but all word is it'll likely be around the same time (Sep-Oct).
For those of us itching for our copy there are several options available. Us old-fashioned types, we can pre-order the complete season at Amazon. The DVD set will run you $38.99 and all you Blu-ray fans you can order yours for $48.99.
But that's not all, for all those who demand instant gratification you can watch the complete Season "with one click" for only $34.99 using Amazon's "video on demand" feature. If that's too much of a commitment for you you can buy and instantly download your favorite episode (or just that episode you missed because you're cable box crapped out) for only $1.99 an episode.
Not too bad, although I think I'm in an increasingly small minority of people who prefer not to watch movies on computer screens. It's just a personal thing. I become very aware that I'm watching something not in its intended format. I don't know — it's just a thing. I'm a collector. Give me packaging. Give me booklets and inserts, give me art, dammit! It looks good on my bookshelf. For those like me, and I hope I'm not alone, we'll have to wait a while longer.
The Observer and The Colonel
In the season 2 finale "Over there, Part 2" the Observer (or at least his best stand-in?) makes an appearance in line for some of the colonels delicious blend of eleven herbs and spices, or maybe a double-down? Can you even get jalapenos a KFC? Hot sauce? Hmmm…
The Sam Weiss Code
The evidence is racking up against Fringe's resident Zen-master and bowling alley clerk Sam Weiss. It seems that several clues (including an in show easter-egg and the deciphering of one of Fringe's trademarked "glyphs" that apparently mentions Olivia's mentor by name) seem to be indicators that his past and future may be more interesting than first thought.
All you eagle-eyed and easter-egg loving fans undoubtedly devoured every bit of background scenery when the team was "on the other side". If so, then you certainly noticed the peculiar phrase seen in William Bell's Harvard lab that reads "A Demon's Twist Rusts". Well, fellow Fringe fanatics FringeTelevision.com report that the phrase is actually an anagram for "Don't trust Sam Weiss".
Not only that, but the aforementioned "glyphs" that are shown before commercial breaks in each episode, apparently spelled out Weiss's name during the finale (see below).
The discovery of the glyph and the easter-egg anagram, have called in to question the motivations of Olivia's seemingly friendly mentor, and any of his accomplices. Wikipedia describe the character thusly…
"Sam Weiss (Kevin Corrigan) is an acquaintance of Nina Sharp. He helps Olivia regain her ability to walk, and begins to establish a friendship with her. He operates a bowling alley, and his rehabilitation efforts with Olivia initially involve her practicing the sport."
Since he was recommended by Nina what could that mean for Nina's intentions? The writer's have definitely toned down Nina's sneakiness, which was fairly prevalent in the opening few episodes of Season 1. If Nina is untrustworthy what implications could that have for Broyles? He and Nina seem to have a strong connection as evidenced by their secret kiss in episode "A New Day In The Old Town". The show-runners clearly have no problem replacing characters with "alternates." Who knows if Charlie was the first? We know after the finale he wasn't the last.
For Whom the Bell Tolls
The Season 2 finale, "Over there, Part 2" has apparently left us with the final acting performance of the great Leonard Nimoy, who appeared as the mysterious character "William Bell". Bell, often thought to be the shows primary antagonist, selflessly sacrificed himself in order to aid our heroes in their return to "our side". FOX has a video of Mr. Nimoy talking about his final role.
CraveOnline recently got a chance to interview Nimoy, he shares some moments about his final acting performance and his future plans with Fringe and beyond
Q: Will you appear on the next season of "Fringe"?
Leonard Nimoy: No, I don't expect to be on next season. I have announced my retirement. I will not be doing anymore television or movie acting or directing. I can tell you that I feel very fulfilled with the work that was given to me to do in this final episode, coming up next week. I admire all of the people on this show: Anna Torv, Josh Jackson, and John Noble, and all the rest. I had some wonderful scenes to play with John Noble who I think is a wonderful actor. I'm excited. I'm looking forward to seeing it edited. I have not seen the edited version, but the work that we did on the soundstage and on the streets of Vancouver felt really creative and productive. I'm happy that I did it.
Q: What do you believe is the most interesting thing about William Bell's character?
Leonard Nimoy: I think it's the fact that he's disarmingly unpredictable. He keeps saying, "Trust me," but then you're not quite sure if you should. That is probably the most interesting thing about him. He's obviously a man of great intelligence and a powerful figure, but most intriguing is what his intentions are. What is his agenda? What is he really after? What's he trying to accomplish? We'll find out more about that next Thursday.
Q: What aspects of William Bell's character have you found the most intriguing over the course of the season?
Leonard Nimoy: Well, there's always been the questions of what are his intentions. The writers have done a very good job of keeping the answer to that rather obscure. I've tried to make him disarming. I've tried to play him ambiguously so that, although he keeps saying, "Trust me," you're still not quite sure if you should. Even in last night's episode, he's saying to Olivia, "I know that you have reason not to trust me, but I'm afraid you're going to have to."
I think we'll find out whether or not he's telling her the truth in next week's episode. We'll find out whether or not it was corrected…. It's going to be a very exciting episode. It's extremely well-produced. The performances by all of the actors that I got to work with were wonderful. I had a great time doing it. I'm looking forward to seeing it on the air next Thursday.
Q: What was the final day filming on the set of "Fringe' like for you?
Leonard Nimoy: It was very moving. I had the same experience on the last day of filming on the "Star Trek" movie about a year-and-a-half ago. This was a very moving experience. It was a night scene, a very brief scene. In fact, the last night, the last work that I did was the scene that was on last night between myself and Olivia, Anna Torv. I had mixed feelings about it. I didn't want it to end because the experience had been such a positive one, but of course, we had to get it done.
When it was done, the entire company gathered around. There was a lot of love exchanged. I said to them, "I've been at this for 60 years. I have never worked with a better company." I meant it. They do an amazing job on the "Fringe" series. It just feels really good to know that I'm saying goodbye to the work on a very positive, good note. I feel very good about the work that was done. I'm looking forward to it being on the air next Thursday.
Q: Is it hard to say goodbye to acting and directing after doing it for so long?
Leonard Nimoy: No, it's not hard to say goodbye. I've had 60 years of working in films and television. I'm very grateful for all the great opportunities that I've had and all and the people that I've met.
Read all of the Crave interview Here. And also check out AICN's coverage of the "Hero Complex Film Festival", a genre-themed festival at which Leonard recently appeared and discussed mostly his Star Trek days, but he also touched on his time working with JJ and the rest of the Fringe crew.
And if that weren't enough for all you die-hard Nimoy-ophiles (I know you're out there) you can catch the man himself at an exhibition of his photography, which opens July 31st at the Massachusetts Museum of Contemporary Art. If you can't make it out go to his Web site: leonardnimoyphotography.com and click to "Secret Selves."

Reliant Medical Group will sever its ties with Fallon Community Health Plan's Medicare insurance program for seniors at the end of this year, a move that could force older Fallon customers to find new doctors or change insurance plans.
Reliant said in an emailed statement that it intends to accept payment from just one Medicare HMO starting next year, the Tufts Medicare Preferred plan offered by Tufts Health Plan of Waltham.
Reliant currently has agreements with several Medicare plans, according to its website. The revenue it receives is essentially the same across all Medicare plans, Reliant said.
�Medicare can be administratively complex, so we find it more efficient to work with only one Medicare Advantage Plan,� Reliant said.
Both Reliant, a group with more than 260 doctors at about 20 sites in Central Massachusetts, and Fallon posted information about the change online, and Fallon mailed letters to senior plan members.
Medicare health plans are specialized health insurance products for seniors. The Fallon Senior Plan HMO has 30,521 members with access to more than 8,500 primary care doctors and specialists. Fallon said about 5 percent of the medical professionals in the network are part of Reliant Medical Group.
The change next year only affects people enrolled in the Fallon Senior Plan and not Fallon's other plans.

When someone dies under mysterious circumstances, what happens next? Most states in the United States have laws that require certain types of deaths be investigated:
- injury
- delayed complications of injuries
- poisoning
- infectious complications
- foul play
- people who die with no attending physician
If the death meets any of the above criteria, it must be reported to the local medical examiner or coroner for investigation and a legal determination of the cause of death. The main tool of this investigation is the autopsy.
The process of examining the dead to discover how they died is the subject of many TV shows and movies, but the facts aren't always so clear-cut. In an interview with Atlanta's Fulton County Deputy Chief Medical Examiner Eric Kiesel, HowStuffWorks cut through the mystery of this often misunderstood process and learned the details of the preparation, procedure, and tools needed to perform an autopsy.

Strategic Planning, Performance, and Accountability
GAO's mission is to support the Congress in meeting its constitutional responsibilities and to help improve the performance and ensure the accountability of the federal government for the benefit of the American people. We examine how taxpayer dollars are spent and advise lawmakers and agency heads on ways to make government work better. In short, we accomplish our mission by providing objective and reliable information and analysis to the Congress, to federal agencies, and to the public, and we recommend improvements, when appropriate, on a wide variety of issues.
Although GAO is a legislative-branch agency, we produce a strategic plan, a performance plan, and an annual performance and accountability report with information comparable to that reported by executive-branch agencies. The strategies and means that we use to accomplish our mission are described in these documents. We assess our performance using a balanced set of quantitative performance measures that focus on key areas--results, client, people, and internal operations. We report on these measures in the annual performance and accountability report. The performance and accountability report also fulfills our requirement to report annually on the work of the Comptroller General under the U.S. Code (31 U.S.C. 719).

Sons of Anarchy 5.01: Sovereign
SPOILER WARNING: This post will appear every Wednesday following a new episode of "Sons of Anarchy." It is intended to be read after seeing the show's latest installment as a source of recap and analysis. As such, all aspects and events that have occurred up to and including the episode discussed are fair game.
The Lion Declawed
After nine long months, SAMCRO is finally back. "Sovereign" began with Jax writing in a manner that seems to be addressing his sons when they come of age, just as his own father did. Although his father died when he was 15, Jax has more of JT in him than Clay. The prodigal son now sits at the head of the table with Chibs to his right as the new sergeant-at-arms. Bobby Munson will be on his the other side, having been made the new VP in the premiere, and Opie will be taking an extended leave of absence from the club. It's great when tiny details in something like wardrobe can portray significant changes in the characters. We saw that in "Sovereign," as Jax and Chibs' new position patches were a freshly sewn white. In contrast, you could still see the remnants of the word "president" stitched into Clay's cut. It served as a subtle reminder of Jax's recent coup and just how far the once mighty Clay has fallen.
Almost more interesting than the things that have changed however are those that have stayed the same. Namely the fact that Clay's still breathing (or trying to anyway). The former president's non-death last season still seems like a bit of a cop out. Remember Jax needs his step-dad around to keep the Irish happy, a plot choice that fails to live up to the real-world reasoning that those in charge aren't ready for Ron Perlman to leave the show. After doing so much work to build Clay up as a villain last season, the writers had better have some tricks up their sleeves if they want viewers to continue accepting his sticking around. That started last night, and how.
Anyone who thought Clay would accept defeat and move quietly out of the limelight was sadly mistaken. His physical ailments have caught up with him, and it's no coincidence that he now bears significant resemblance to Piney, who he killed last season. After Clay's talk with Gemma, my first guess was that he'd undergo yet another role reversal and be made into a sympathetic character again. That notion was quickly discarded, Clay's still up to his old tricks, only now he's got only his wits to work with and none of his former brawn.
Clay's trickiest move was coming clean about killing Piney, right at the table during "chapel." Well, sort of. The bare facts were there, but he twisted the tale to make his actions seem justified and himself more sympathetic. This was not a repentant man struggling to explain things to his club, it was a con artist making the best play he could, bluffing a shit hand. Clay's faux explanation has neutered any plans Jax might have had to use the truth to turn the club against him after he'd served his purpose. If Jax tries to tell the real story now, the guys will think he's doing exactly what Clay actually did: lying to get his way. All that said, some element of making Clay likable again survives due to his leafing through a photo album even though Gemma specifically told him not to make any pictures. Maybe he really is sorry? Maybe, but I doubt it.
Villain vs. Anti-Heroes
After Opie shot Clay last season, the rest of the club was told the One-Niners were responsible. In a tumult of rage and guilt, Tig sought vengeance by attempting to kill the enemy gang's leader, Laroy. Instead, it was Laroy's girlfriend, one Veronica Pope, who ended up dead. The woman was the daughter of Damon Pope (played by Harold Perrineau of "Lost"), a Gus Fring type: powerful businessman with criminal ties. From his ordering the repeated killing of the gang's leaders, we learned that the One-Niners are really just a street-level arm of Pope's operation. This time around, it won't just be the Niners the Sons are dealing with, but Pope, a man of unknown motivation, power, and yes, responsibility. Unlike that gangster in his employ, Pope is in fact a "Spider-Man nigga."
The first step for SAMCRO's newest antagonist was retaliation against Tig. But this was no simple vengeance. There's an eye for an eye and then there's burning a man's daughter alive as he stands there chained and helpless. It's clear that watching that flung the affably unstable Tig right off the deep end. Let's see, Tig kills a woman because he thought he was avenging Clay. It turns out that was a lie, and Tig's actions (which were entirely unprovoked in the eyes of Pope and the Niners) led to his own daughter's horrific death. I wonder who he'll blame for that? Trouble is, as badly as Jax wants Clay dead himself, it will be up to him to rein Tig in.
That's what all this means for the club, but Pope's actions and demeanor say something different entirely about the show. Early in the first season, my main problem with "Sons of Anarchy" was that it showed a bunch of interesting but ultimately uber-violent "bad guys" doing a bunch of horrible things and laughing about it afterwards with little to no character development. That changed as I came to understand the characters and their motivations. One way the show tried to justify the viewer rooting for the Sons was making them the gang that does everything except deal drugs. That excuse I found cheap, but I respected that they wanted to maintain Charming's small-town, well, charm. They kept corporations out so small businesses could succeed, stopped developers from building "McMansions," and the like. Plus, there was the simple idea that no matter how bad the Sons got, their enemy was usually a whole lot worse.
After all the forward movement of the past four seasons, introducing Pope as a sociopath, a man who won't shy away from burning your daughter alive before your eyes, seemed almost as convenient as drugs=bad, Sons don't sell drugs, therefore Sons=good. This isn't to say bringing in Pope was a bad move or that the show won't handle the move with grace, anything can be done well if it's done right. But the character should not simply be a way to distract from or delay further exploration of the Sons' moral complexities. While the characters might look in the mirror and see righteous outlaws, the viewer should be given a more objective perspective and be allowed to decide for themselves what they see. If Pope only sets up SAMCRO as the lesser of two evils, the show is giving up on all that, at least for the time being, which would mean, well, I wouldn't give up on the show, but I'd be disappointed.
One Last Thing
Early into the season premiere, Lieutenant Roosevelt showed up at Teller-Morrow to ask the members if they knew anything about a couple of recent break-ins, one at the home of a club groupie (or "crow eater") and the other at that of a Teller-Morrow mechanic. Roosevelt guesses the crimes were retaliation for the killing of Veronica Pope. The episode ended with Wayne Unzer, former chief of Charming P.D. and friend of the club, having his home invaded. Somewhere in between, SAMCRO inducts a couple of Nomads into their chapter. One of them was "Greg the Peg," who has a prosthetic leg and joked about having "somewhere to put his feet up." Turns out one of the guys who broke into Unzer's house was wearing the same shoes. Oh, and a prosthetic leg to boot (check out these screenshots provided by a user of the "SoA" subreddit). My guess: the Nomads are all working for Pope, who's now got three different inside perspectives on SAMCRO. Strap on your helmets and throw on your cuts, we're in for a hell of a ride this season.

The Blizzard Survival brand incorporating its unique and innovative Reflexcell material has established itself as the leader in lightweight, compact survival protection. From the outset it was designed with walkers and climbers in mind to help them survive emergency situations in cold conditions, but it will be equally effective for anyone undertaking activities in the outdoors. Ideal for:
Completely different from a traditional "space blanket Reflexcell . Cellular construction traps warm air, giving vastly superior warmth over any comparable product.
Other survival bags may protect you from the worst of the weather, but you will usually be very cold, damp and uncomfortable. In cool conditions they will not stop you becoming hypothermic. People who have used old-fasioned, single layer silver blankets in emergencies report disastrous results: blankets disintegrating when unpacked, ripping in the wind, and not giving any feeling of warmth.
Blizzard products provide you with unrivalled thermal qualities, even in cold conditions, and in a real emergency will keep you alive over a prolonged period.
Blizzard Products are light weight, compact yet really robust.
The new Active Range has been developed to be even lighter and smaller than the traditional Blizzard Bags, Blankets and Jackets. Made from Ultra Light 2 layer Reflexcell. The Blizzard Active Range is ideal for any outdoor acivities and is a must have for a boat or car emergency kit.
Go to our about Reflexcell page to learn more about this completely unique material.
Reflexcell has now established itself within key market sectors following rigorous testing and endorsement and is now extensively used by the military all over the world.

Head coach Cameron Rast, on game: "We played well right off the bat tonight. I challenged the guys to prepare for this game like we still needed to qualify for the playoffs and they responded. They came out ready to play and did a lot of things well, so I am really pleased with the performance."
Rast, on finishing: "Peter (Lowry) got us going with a good early goal that was well created. We broke them down and got in behind and he was able to slot it home. At halftime we talked about scoring a few more goals without conceding any in the back and we were able to do that. Sean (Danzeiser) and Keith (DeVey) has some nice finishes for us."
Rast, on using reserves: "We were able to use a lot of different players tonight which is great for us. It gives them game experience and in the playoffs you never know who will contribute so it was good to get some different players in there."
Keith DeVey, on getting win at home: "It is good for us to get a convincing win at Buck Shaw. That really gives us confidence especially with the playoffs coming up. We have had some close games here this year but it feels good to play well and get a nice win."
DeVey, on team's play: "The team is playing really well right now and it seems like all the pieces are starting fit together for us. We just want to keep building momentum as we head into the playoffs. All we care about right now is getting deep into the playoffs so we just have to stay focused."
DeVey, on goal: "Amaechi (Igwe) gave me a good ball and I took a bit of a long touch but the defense did not react well so I was able to recover the ball. I just stuck with it and toe-poked it by the `keeper."
Sean Danzeiser, on goal: "I saw Amaechi (Igwe) get the ball at midfield and he made a great move on the defender and sent the ball to me. It took a bad skip on the defender and I was able to get behind him. The goalie was coming out so I just chipped it over him."
Danzeiser, on putting game away: "We are definitely growing as a team. When we played up in Portland, we were up 2-0 and they scored to get back in the game. Tonight we got the third goal and just killed the game off."

He offered his first in-depth comments on his stroke and rehabilitation in an interview with ABC7.
"The greatest honor of my life was to serve the people of Illinois as their junior senator and there was no way I was going to quit," Kirk said.
He has minimal use of his left arm but is able, over limited distance, to walk with a four point cane. Much of his travel though will be by wheel chair.
"I've been laid up like a caged animal, seeking any excuse to get out of the house and get into this house, the Capitol," Kirk said.
Since his stroke less than a year ago, Kirk has undergone three brain surgeries and gone through an extremely aggressive rehab program.
" I thought that I could die. It feels, felt, that serious," he said.
Kirk came back to Washington over the holiday and returned briefly to his office. However, his moment of symbolism comes Thursday when he will walk 46 steps from the parking lot up to the Senate entrance of the Capitol.
"I just felt that the Capitol has an awful lot of steps," he said. "That would be a good symbolic goal for me and it's about setting goals every month that are big enough and meaningful enough for me."
"I want people across the State of Illinois to know and say 'Kirk came back', now he's climbing the capital steps to show a patient must keep going," he said.
Conquering steps has been a constant goal. From rehab to climbing to 37 floor of the Willis Tower in late October and now the steps of the Capitol.
Many people who have suffered similar strokes, and haven't had the same caliber of rehab, are not able to return to work.
"The idea is that almost everybody has some degree of improvement," Rehabilitation Institute of Chicago rehabilitation expert Dr. Elliot Roth said. "To improve enough to go back to work is still sadly relatively unusual."
Kirk is the beneficiary of an outstanding therapy program and his own determination.
"I thank the people of Illinois for their patience for this patient," he said. "The stamina comes from my colleagues, Dick Durbin who has been an absolute prince to me."
Sen. Durbin and Vice President Joe Biden will walk up the steps with Kirk.

Bruce Roberts
Assistant Principal Horn
Member since 1988
Hometown: San Diego, CA
Early musical memory:
My mother is a piano teacher and my father was a band director in public high schools. Early on, my sisters and I would give impromptu performances after dinner, and my mother would accompany us on piano. It was a social thing to do, and we did it pretty regularly, to the point where we got comfortable playing.
Outside the Orchestra:
Over the last few years, I have been working towards building my own French horn making and repair shop. I see it as something to look forward to in my retirement from performance. It's also another way to have a lasting legacy in the music world.
Current reading:
I love to read The Economist, and my favorite radio show is This American Life. I listen to that religiously. I also enjoyed reading a book called A Devil to Play by Jasper Rees, which is about a British amateur horn player who decides to try and master a difficult Mozart horn concerto (and perform it in front of an audience!) It's a story that all horn players can relate to.
Bruce Roberts has served as a Symphony mentor in the SF Symphony Community of Music Makers program.

Machu Picchu
The Lost City Of the Incas
Machu Picchu is an enigmatic ancient city located high in the Andes Mountains in Peru. It is one of Peru's most significant tourist attractions but also one of the world's most impressive archaeological sites. This legendary city was built by the Incas in the 15th century, and was only rediscovered in 1911 by archaeologist Hiram Bingham in 1911.
Machu Picchu is a site of extraordinary beauty. It sits 2,430 m above sea level, in the middle of a tropical mountain forest. It is barely visible from below and is tucked away between two Andean peaks. It was the Incas' best kept secret and was built when the empire was at its height.
The city was a retreat town for Inca nobility and has a large palace and several temples dedicated to Inca deities. It was mysteriously abandoned just before the Spanish conquest, and lay buried under dense vegetation until its rediscovery.
Machu Picchu is one of the most protected sanctuaries of Peru, providing a home for a number of species, including the Alpaca. The site was inscribed in UNESCO's World Heritage List in 1983.

PORTLAND, Ore. --Police say the man who opened fire in a suburban Portland shopping mall apparently killed himself after fatally shooting two people and wounding a third.
Clackamas County sheriff's Lt. James Rhodes says law enforcement who flooded the Clackamas Town Center in response to the afternoon shooting didn't fire any shots.
Witnesses described a scene of chaos and disbelief as a gunman wearing some sort of camouflage outfit and a white mask shot an initial burst of fire and then more rounds near the mall's food court.
Many shoppers fled and others hid in the backrooms of stores.

Happy New Year to all our blog readers! Apologies for the delay in updates but the holidays did what they normally do and push several things on my agenda back a bit. I think the best way to ring in the new year here is to put together a list of recommended resolutions for people in the SEO community. After all, there are thousands out there who will be trying to get a leg up on the competition in 2010. Google continues to update its algorithm and incorporate new features into its search functionality. The Bing/Yahoo marriage has given notice that we cannot just pay attention to one search engine. It's as important as ever to stay up to date with what's going on.
1. Learn Google Analytics' advanced features
Analytics is more than just a hit counter... but you already knew that. Its referral data and site navigation mapping tools are probably what most webmasters use. And handy they are indeed. But there are more advanced features that can further educate you on visitor behaviour. My recommendation is to go to Conversion University. Sounds nerdy, doesn't it. Well, it is. But it's well worth your time if you want to become an expert in Google Analytics. Follow this link to learn how to prepare for the Analytics IQ Test.
2. Attend a Search Engine Marketing seminar
Yes, some can be pricey. But find one with reputable speakers and good opportunities to network within the industry and it can easily pay for itself in new business. My own personal goal in 2010 is to attend the Search Engine Strategies conference in Toronto in June or San Francisco in August. These regularly attract representatives from major search engines as well as experts in the search marketing field.
3. Cut and run from old, outdated SEO methods
The evolution of search has been slow in many respects. The fact that we still see spam content when making search queries on major search engines like Google and Bing tells us that there is still a long way to go. It's a sad fact of the SEO landscape that some black hat methods still do result in high rankings and traffic every now and then. The good news is that a) these gains are very much temporary and b) black hat SEO is hardly a good strategy for a legit business model.
I think we will continue to see relevancy count for more when it comes to link building tactics. The days of purchasing text links in large packages where value is determined by PageRank are over. I'll even go as far as to say that PR is 100% useless as a measure of a link's value. Article submission networks are also a thing of the past. Distributing your content is still recommended, but ask yourself this: are you submitting your article to a site that has actual readers interested in your topic? If the answer's no, pass on it. And if you haven't hopped on the social media bandwagon yet and are a small business owner, do it! Tweet, Stumble, blog and be merry.
4. Make the 301 redirect your bff
I was amazed at how many links I clicked on in 2009 that returned a 404 Not Found error page. And not just on mom & pop sites. I'm talking Fortune 500 companies, media giants (Rogers, I'm looking in your direction) and tech communities. When your web development budget is six or seven figures, there's no excuse to strand users on pages that are of no value to them. Yes, human error will always be a fact of life when coding, but a site redesign changes the entire page and directory structure; make sure the old content is not deleted. Not only will users continue to hit on old pages, you're orphaning valuable link popularity gained through long-term exposure of those URLs.
If you need some insight into 301 redirect basics, just follow the link.
5. Hop on the mobile web design bandwagon
You can likely count out National Hockey League employees as being on the list of Blackberry users, but Jim Balsillie's vision for mobile connectivity still has millions on board. With that, comes more web surfing on tiny screens than ever before. Offering mobile design and optimization services might really take off in 2010. Is your content such that a widget or "app" might be useful for users? How about streaming video in mobile quality? Or even creating some marketing information on your site that would be easily readable using an iPhone in a board meeting.
As a web developer, cross-platform analysis should not just focus on the popular Windows and Mac web browsers but also look at the functionality of a web site on smart phones. Of course it's up to you to decide how to best display your info. But if your web statistics show those iPod or iPhone referrals on the rise, chances are there's an opportunity to take the next step with your web content.
And there you have it. Five New Year's resolutions for the SEO. Now it's up to you to see them through.

In a new report from eDataSource, "a leading provider of online competitive intelligence," it's been estimated that Amazon has sold more than 95,000 Kindle Fires on the first day of pre-order sales alone.
By using an inbox scanning technique, eDataSource was able to scour some 800,000 inboxes the day Kindle Fire pre-orders went live to obtain a rough number of purchase receipts for analyzation. By analyzing these receipts, eDataSource "can get a read on hot product launches based on sales from leading eCommerce websites." This isn't the first time eDataSource would have used this method to correctly obtain first day sales numbers. The firm pegged first day sales of Apple's iPad at 350,000. Apple later came out and said they sold "over 300,000″ on the first day alone.
So how does Amazon's 95,000 Kindle Fires stack up? It's too early to say if the device will be able to overthrow the iPad; we need to see first day sales numbers to know how close they'll come to Apple's 350,000. As far as most of the other big tablets are concerned, the Kindle Fire already has them beat. In the first month and a half of sales, the Motorola Xoom was just able to top 100,000. The BlackBerry PlayBook, already considered a flop, sold some 200,000 "during the entirety of its second fiscal quarter." Since the Kindle's 95,000 sales come from the first day alone, it should have no problem smashing any sales numbers the PlayBook has put up.
Even if eDataSource's numbers are off, anything over 50,000 would be impressive. This is a sure sign that the Kindle Fire is going to be huge. Easily the iPad's strongest competitor to date. Do you think Amazon has what it takes to beat Apple on first day sales?

How to make Editworld use your custom tiles in a map: Author was RBL-4NiK8r.
-Create a new map with Editworld or use an existing map.
Assume the map is named 'MyMap.lnd' in directory '\Warzone2100\mapSaves'
-Go to directory '\Warzone2100\mapDataSets'
-If you intend to make a map that is mainly based on tiles of the Arizona scene you should copy 'WarzoneDataC1.eds' to 'MyMap.eds'
For a mainly urban map you should copy 'WarzoneDataC2.eds' to 'MyMap.eds'
For a mainly rocky mountains map you should copy 'WarzoneDataC3.eds' to 'MyMap.eds'
For a map that uses no tiles or a mix of tiles from the scenes, you can pick one at random.
Note: The information in these .eds-files is not critical. They contain only edge brush definitions and tile types.
The worst that can happen is that EditWorld s options 'paint with edges' and 'fill using edge brush' will paint the wrong tiles.
As far as tile types are concerned: you will need to change them in Editworld (explained below).
-Load 'MyMap.eds' into a text editor.
-Modify third line:
TILETEXTURES "TexPages\TertilesC1.pcx"
TILETEXTURES "TexPages\MyTiles.pcx"
In this example the pcx-file with the custom tiles is named 'MyTiles.pcx' in directory '\Warzone2100\TexPages')
You may choose either the software- or the hardware-version: this will have no effect on exported maps.
Note: IF YOU USE YOUR OWN DIRECTORY INSTEAD OF 'TexPages'
-Go to directory '\Warzone2100\mapSaves'
-Load 'MyMap.lnd' into a text editor.
-Modify first line:
Dataset WarzoneDataC1.eds
Dataset MyMap.eds
-Start Editworld
-Load 'MyMap.lnd' from directory '\Warzone2100\mapSaves'
Note: Editworld will now always show your custom tiles with map 'MyMap.lnd'.
All unmodified maps loaded in EditWorld will still show the default tiles.
-Select in EditWorld from menu 'Options' item 'Terrain Types'
The terrain type for each of your tiles will be shown in the box on the left screen.
-Modify the terrain types of your custom tiles: select one of the 12 terrain buttons
on the tools bar and then click on the appropriate tiles.
-Save map
Notes: The custom map will behave like a normal standard map in EditWorld with one exception:
EditWorld s options 'paint with edges' and 'fill using edge brush' may paint with unwanted tiles.
You can change this by modifying the BRUSHBEGIN-BRUSHEND block in 'MyMap.eds'.
Format not explored.

The Fatman strikes again. Nope, Frank Lampard's not back from his injury - we're talking iPod docks from the ultra-cool manufacturer.
First up is the Fatman iTube ValveDock MkII, the successor to the original ValveDock that adds more power and a USB input option as well.
It's a two-piece system made up of the bling-tastic amplifier, with its trio of valves and the hybrid-tube amp, and the matching iPod dock itself.
In the box you'll find high-quality speaker cables and a remote control. It has 2x25W of output and offers line-level inputs making it easy to hook-up additional devices like your CD player.
The Carbon Trinity features a hybrid vacuum tube amplifier with the on-board iPod/iPhone dock, and also offers a USB option for your non iDevices.
It has the same 2x25W output as the iTube and the same frequency response of 20Hz - 20KHz (±1.5Db).
The Fatman iTube ValveDock MkII will set you back £300, and the Carbon Trinity £400. Add £100 to both if you want speakers as well. They're out now.

Alex West began his career selling rather than making ads, working for Richard Desmond at Northern and Shell. An interesting start, to say the least.
"On my first day, when I was 18, he came and tapped me on the shoulder and said 'you're the first public school wanker I've ever employed. You better be fucking good.' It was a baptism of fire, but a fascinating one." Within a few years he was running three of Desmond's magazines.
This is the closest West comes to identifying anyone who may have influenced his career. Traditional figures such as Frank Lowe, Leo Burnett or John Hegarty have not inspired him as they might have others in the industry. "It's not the grand old man of advertising or the guys who make millions of pounds. It's less any single person within the industry inspiring me or mentoring me and more me wanting to be in a business with lots of incredible people," he explains, simply.
If anything, in his role as head of talent and partnerships at Mother, he's the one who gets to inspire others by facilitating their creative passions - a Jim'll Fix It for the ad industry. Part of his role is to encourage employees to hone their skills on exciting projects that are completely outside of their day jobs. "If you want to attract creative talent, you need to give them the opportunity to work across a whole bunch of different things, not just wave a chequebook in front of them," he says.
One of Mother's talented copywriters was given the chance to work on a feature film with a high-profile director, for example.
The atmosphere at Mother certainly suits West's passion for eclectic talent. "We have such a wide range of skill sets within Mother: we can do feature films, books, design, experiential, music, comics, theatre," he enthuses.
After learning the consumer press business at Northern and Shell, he became a publisher at Shots. Next, he set himself up as a consultant to ad agencies around the world. "I regard myself slightly as an outsider at Mother. I came in at 40 and with a totally different background. Working here is the first time I've been in the advertising industry. I've always been on the periphery. I did enjoy maintaining some independence from it until I was asked to join Mother."
It seems no agency other than Mother could have tempted him into the heart of advertising. "It was an exciting opportunity, to do for Mother what I had been doing on a smaller scale as a consultant for other businesses. It was an opportunity to put a lot of theory into practice. I knew them and I knew the partners and they run a progressive business."
As head of partnerships, West tracks down talented people with whom the agency can collaborate on projects, from furniture designers to interactive installation artists. "We've been talking about media platform fragmentation for probably over a decade now. We have to work across every touch point to get the brand message across in the right way and advertising agencies don't necessarily have the skill set to do that in house. The kinds of people we want to work with on single projects are also not the kind of people who want to be employed by us," West notes.
Nurturing talent is based on a core belief that he shares with Mother: talent is the difference between a successful business and a mediocre one. "The pressure is on agencies to learn new ways of creating revenues and learn new skill sets, which aren't necessarily brand orientated but are done as a partnership. I think that's a really important lesson for advertising agencies to learn."
West predicts some "very fundamental changes" to the ad industry over the next five to ten years. "I think only the really great creative agencies will survive, not only for doing great creative work, but for innovation, developing brands themselves, and working across a wide range of media platforms."
While West hasn't spent his career worshipping advertising heros, he still has plenty of respect for the industry's most successful current figures, not least Robert Saville and Mark Waite, founders of Mother. Of Saville, he says: "The purity of the vision he has created, and the single minded dedication to creativity is astonishing. The frustration is plain to see on his face if we haven't managed to really deliver a great piece of work for a client. That is exceptional."
"I'm also a huge admirer of Dan Wieden, Jeff Goodby, and guys like that," he adds. "The same goes for some of the marketing people out there. Keith Weed (the chief marketing officer) from Unilever is a great guy, and it will be people like him who are far more fundamentally able to change our industry on a grander scale than any individuals within ad agencies."
Surprisingly, West reveals that he would have been a banker if he'd not gone into advertising. "Just so I could retire early," he insists. "Many friends went into banking, and over the years I've always wondered why. I've been running my own business, working in and around communications, flying all over the world, having an amazing time while they've always had their heads down working. Now they have their second homes and kids sorted, I understand why.
"In reality though, I don't think I could have spent 20 years doing that," he reflects.
Indeed, with such a passion for creative talent, it's hard to see how he could be motivated by anything else.

The Durano Double Defense (DD) folding tyre has the same looks and profile as the Durano - RaceGaurd protection belt and tread pattern, but also features an effective fabric protector on the sidewalls for added puncture resistance.

RaceGuard Protection:
RaceGuard offers you excellent puncture protection, which is thanks to the double layer of nylon fabric within the tyre. RaceGuard is found in Schwalbe's light and sporty tyres.
These tyres are for racing style bikes that use clincher/hooked rims, these are the most common fitment and hook onto the rim and require an inner tube. There is a wide choice of tyres within this category and the right choice is important. Lighter tyres will accelerate quickly, but will be more prone to punctures so getting a balance is extremely important. If you require a tyre for all round use look for something with puncture protection, an average TPI(Threads Per Inch) and average weight. If you require a fast tyre and speed is the only thing that matters look for a low weight folding tyre with high TPI. If durability is your priority and speed is not so important look towards the puncture resistant tyres and consider going for a wider tyre, these will be less prone to punctures and offer a bit more comfort. For wet road conditions a triple compound or winter tyre is a good choice, these use a softer compound on the cornering surface to maximise grip.
For over 70 years Schwalbe have dominated the two wheeled tyre industry in Germany and Europe, being voted best MTB tyre brand in Germany for the past two years. From the very early beginnings where the company founder, Earnest-Wilhelm Bohle capitalised on the developing cycle industry, to the ultra modern distribution facility near Cologne, Schwalbe have continued to design and manufacture some of the finest bicycle tyres available. Schwalbe's success is due in part to the effort it makes in product development from lab tests at the manufacturing facility to the hardest proving grounds of all, professional cycle racing. 'Team Gerolsteiner' achieved a very creditable 7th place overall in the 2004 Tour de France and the unique performance of team captain Davide Rebellin winning three major classic races back to back using Schwalbe tyre. Other notable succeses include Normann Stadler winning the infamous Ironman triathlon in Hawaii, riding Schwalbe Stelvio tyres.

Human Conics: Circles and Ellipses
Lesson 3 of 13
Objective: SWBAT define circles and ellipses as a locus of points and apply locus definitions to draw conic sections.
Big Idea: Students collaborate with partners to become a human conic section and draw circles and ellipses using sidewalk chalk.
Overview: This lesson is adapted from the Human Conics lessons from the NCTM Illuminations website. I will be doing half of the lesson today with my students and the other half at a later time.
Preparation: For this first part of the lesson, students will need access to a compass. Later in the lesson, students will need sidewalk chalk and a rope (one piece, 10-12 feet long per group of 3 students). Human Conics, Supplies Needed.
Narrative: As students enter class today they should begin working on questions 1-2 of the Human Circle Student Worksheet. (I am going to copy this back to back with the Human Ellipse worksheet which is located in next section of lesson). After about 5 minutes bring the class back together. Discuss how the parts of the compass relate to the parts of the circle. Emphasize the importance of not changing the width of the compass (the radius of the circle) by squeezing too tightly when using the compass. Also, emphasize that the definition of a circle describes the points on the circle, not the area inside.
Next, present the definition of an ellipse using Teacher Resource - Ellipse Definition. I am not planning on giving students a copy of the definition. I will project this resource under the document camera. I am going to use different colors on the paper to highlight the pieces of the definition. I will take this paper with us when we go outside in case any teams want to reference it while we are outside.
Resources (5)
Human Conics
Students will now venture outside (in Arizona we generally don't have to check the weather). Teams of three students will complete the tasks posed on the Human Circle and Ellipse handout. Each group will need to apply the definition of both conic sections (circle and ellipse) in order to draw these accurately with sidewalk chalk. I will be checking in with teams and to ensure their drawings are accurate. Students should start with the circle and then work on the ellipse.
I think this activity is going to be challenging for students to figure out how to work as a team to draw the conic sections. I am guessing there are going to be a lot of great student conversations going on.
I hope to see a lot of activity with respect to Mathematical Practice 3: Construct viable arguments and critique the reasoning of others.

Closure: Class Huddle
With about 5 minutes remaining in the class period, I am going to call students over to a huddle outside. I just want to collect student work now and also ask some closure questions of the class.
Here are the questions I will pose to students:
- How many people minimally does it take to draw a circle? An ellipse?
- What would happen if the rope was longer? Shorter?
- Are you able to draw these conics continuously (without picking up the chalk)?

Music notes: Durty Nellie's hosts up-and-comer Andrew Ripp
Local music
Singer-songwriter Andrew Ripp, a native of Palatine, will play a hometown show this weekend. Ripp has released two albums of driving pop-rock, the most recent being 2010's "She Remains the Same," and he tours relentlessly. Here's a chance to see a local talent as he makes a name for himself.
7 p.m. Saturday, Dec. 22, at Durty Nellie's, 180 N. Smith St., Palatine. $7. Go to durtynellies.com or andrewripp.com.
Rocking hard
The California band Buckcherry emerged in the mid-1990s, just as the "grunge" sound was giving way to something a bit more raucous. The band plays songs to party to -- driving hard rock that flirts with grunge and heavy metal. After a hiatus in the 2000s, the band is back and releasing music at a brisk pace. Its next record, "Confessions," is due early in 2013. The band makes a stop in the suburbs next week.
9 p.m. Thursday, Dec. 27, at Austin's Fuel Room, 481 Peterson Road, Libertyville. Tickets start at $25. Go to austinsaloon.com.
Last-minute gifts
Still need to find a gift for the music lover on your list? Don't panic. Here are a few suggestions that should please most rock fans:
• Rage Against the Machine, "XX" (20th Anniversary Edition) -- Libertyville native Tom Morello and his bandmates in Rage Against the Machine landed on the music scene like a hand grenade 20 years ago with an incendiary debut that now gets the reissue treatment. This blend of rock and hip-hop is as fiery and political as music gets. (Legacy)
• The Beatles, stereo vinyl box set -- For better or for worse, the Beatles just won't fade away. Here's the latest big release from them, a lavish set of the group's 14 studio albums on pristine 180-gram vinyl, the format that current audiophiles are drooling over. It ain't cheap -- the set costs more than $300 -- but few gifts will get you a bigger smile than this one. (Capitol)
• Peter Gabriel, "So" (25th Anniversary Edition) -- One of the signature albums of the 1980s is back in a deluxe set that includes remastered sound and a concert DVD. "So" is a pop masterpiece, and this reissue should give the album its due. (Real World Productions)

Yes, he's at a Moscow airport, and no, you can't have him.
MOSCOW | Yes, he's at a Moscow airport, and no, you can't have him.
Russian President Vladimir Putin gave the first official acknowledgment of the whereabouts of National Security Agency leaker Edward Snowden on Tuesday and promptly rejected U.S. pleas to turn him over.
Snowden, who is charged with violating American espionage laws, fled Hong Kong during the weekend, touching off a global guessing game over where he went and frustrating U.S. efforts to bring him to justice.
Putin said Snowden is in the transit zone of Sheremetyevo Airport and has not passed through Russian immigration, meaning he technically is not in Russia and thus is free to travel wherever he wants.
After arriving Sunday on a flight from Hong Kong, Snowden registered for a Havana-bound flight Monday en route to Venezuela and then possible asylum in Ecuador, but he didn't board the plane.
Speculation has been rife that Russian security services have been talking to Snowden and might want to keep him in Russia for a more thorough debriefing, but Putin denied that.
"Our special services never worked with Mr. Snowden and aren't working with him today," Putin said at a news conference during a visit to Finland.
Because Moscow has no extradition agreement with Washington, it cannot meet the U.S. request, he said.
"Mr. Snowden is a free man, and the sooner he chooses his final destination the better it is for us and for him," Putin said. "I hope it will not affect the businesslike character of our relations with the U.S. and I hope that our partners will understand that."
U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry said Tuesday that the U.S. wants Russia to show respect for the rule of law and comply with common practices when it comes to fugitives from justice.
Putin's staunch refusal to consider deportation shows his readiness to further challenge Washington at a time when U.S.-Russian relations are already strained over Syria and other issues, including a Russian ban on adoptions by Americans.
"Just showing America that we don't care about our relations, we are down to basically a Cold War pattern: The enemy of your government is our friend," said Masha Lipman of the Carnegie Moscow Center.
"The Russian administration has not come that far, but we don't know what it's up to," she said.
Despite Putin's denial, security experts think Russia's special services wouldn't miss the chance to question a man who is thought to hold reams of classified U.S. documents and could shed light on how the U.S. intelligence agencies collect information.
Igor Korotchenko, director of the Center for Global Arms Trade and editor of National Defense Magazine, said Snowden would be of particular interest because little is known about digital espionage.
"The security services would be happy to enter into contact with Mr. Snowden," Korotchenko said.
Russia also has relished using Snowden's revelations to turn the tables on the U.S. over its criticism of Russia's rights record.
Putin compared Snowden to WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange, who has been given asylum in the Ecuadorean Embassy in London, saying that both men were labeled criminals but consider themselves rights activists and champions of freedom of information.
"Ask yourself a question: Should people like that be extradited so that they put them in prison?" he said. "In any case, I would prefer not to deal with such issues. It's like shearing a piglet: a lot of squealing and little wool."
In an apparent reference to claims that Russia could have played a role in Snowden's exit from Hong Kong, Putin said his arrival in Moscow was a "complete surprise" and dismissed such accusations as "ravings and sheer non-sense."
"He doesn't need a visa or any other documents, and as a transit passenger he has the right to buy a ticket and fly wherever he wants," Putin said.
Snowden, 30, is a former CIA employee who later was hired as a contractor for the NSA. In that job, he gained access to documents that he gave to newspapers the Guardian and The Washington Post to expose what he contends are privacy violations by an authoritarian government.
Snowden also told the South China Morning Post newspaper in Hong Kong that "the NSA does all kinds of things like hack Chinese cellphone companies to steal all of your SMS data." He is thought to have more than 200 additional sensitive documents in laptops he is carrying.
Russian news media had reported that Snowden remained in a transit zone at the airport, which is separate from regular departure areas. He has not been seen by any of the journalists who have been roaming Sheremetyevo in search of him, furthering speculation that he had been secreted away.
The Interfax news agency, citing an unidentified airport official, said Snowden could be staying in a room in the transit zone normally reserved for flight crews and other personnel.
Legally, an arriving air passenger only crosses the border after clearing Russian immigration checks.
Earlier Tuesday, Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov rejected the U.S. push to turn over Snowden, but he wouldn't specify his whereabouts, saying only that he hadn't crossed the Russian border.
A representative of WikiLeaks has been traveling with Snowden, and the secret-spilling organization is believed to be assisting him in arranging asylum.

After a watery slice last week, my enthusiasm for zucchini as a topping was totally squashed. I blatantly ignored the warnings of my esteemed colleague and my best judgement in opting for the vegetable topped pie. Not only was it watery, but it added nothing to the pie in terms of flavor. However, some very thorough research by a fellow Slice'r reveals the right treatment can make pumpkin and zucchini worthy toppings when properly prepared. I believe it can be done (like maybe this slice with courgette julienne solves the problem), but I have yet to meet a pizza with squash that I like. So what's the general consensus?

TOLEDO, Ohio (AP) -- The mayor of Toledo, Ohio, is telling residents that more tests must be done to ensure toxins are out of the city's water supply.
Mayor D. Michael Collins says Sunday that the 400,000 people in the region need to avoid drinking tap water for a second day. But he says samples show the level of toxins appears to have decreased.
Toledo officials issued the warning early Saturday after tests revealed the presence of a toxin possibly from algae on Lake Erie.
Ohio's Environmental Protection Agency is trying to figure out what caused a sudden spike in the toxins.
Gov. John Kasich has ordered the state's National Guard to deliver pallets of bottled water, water purification systems and meals ready to eat to residents in Lucas, Wood and Fulton counties.

Let Beyoncé Be Perfect
Why is control such a bad thing?
The early verdict on Beyoncé's Life Is But a Dream could have been written before the documentary even aired: It's glossy and aspirational, but too perfect; it teaches us nothing. Beyoncé remains a cipher. As New York Magazine's Nitsuh Abebe wrote in his review, this "is a criticism one hears of Beyoncé qua pop star, that she is flawless in an empty, dutiful way. That beneath the warrior-queen performances and public togetherness, there lies a robot." Life Is But a Dream is nothing but an exercise in public togetherness; even the webcam confessionals and a tender speech about her miscarriage can't hide the obvious calculation behind the self-directed film. This is Beyoncé propaganda, a 90-minute self-paean to a pop star whose name is synonymous with control. What's interesting — interesting enough that Beyoncé feels the need to address it in her own hagiography — is that "control" has become a bad word.
"I don't have to kill myself and be so hard on myself," Beyoncé says of her perfectionism at one point. You can take that as a stab at self-improvement, or you can interpret it as a savvy attempt to answer her critics in the middle of a film designed to reinforce her Perfect image. It's probably a little bit of both — if anything, Life Is But a Dream teaches us that Beyoncé is not much more than a construct of recorded footage. (She is filming herself all the time, after all. Even in the elevator.) But it highlights a troubling celebrity truth: Somehow, being perfect — onstage, on-camera, even at home — is not enough. We expect to see our pop stars fade, even as we shame them for it. We want Britney to fall apart again on national television. We want to lecture Rihanna about her romantic choices. We want unfiltered and "real" celebrity access until we get it, and then we want to punish the celebrities for it, because humanity is a pop-star sin, too.
This is not a particularly sustainable form of entertainment, and it discounts an increasingly irrelevant aspect of pop-star success: actual talent. Beyoncé is not famous because she's good at Twitter (Beyoncé has tweeted four times); she is famous because she can sprint around a stadium while belting "Halo," because she can shake her hair like a bobble-head doll and sing "Run the World" simultaneously, because she does the work. The famous husband and presidential BFFs add to the appeal, obviously, but Beyoncé gained one-name-legend status by dominating the competition, and in scary high-heels too. If it requires a Monica-from-Friends level of control to achieve like Beyoncé does, then so be it. Perfectionism serves Beyoncé well.
Granted, it doesn't serve tell-all documentaries so well. It's not unreasonable to watch a feature-length film about a celebrity and expect to learn something about the human involved, and Beyoncé refuses to get messy. Despite the format's promises, this is the right choice for her: a weeping, histrionic Beyoncé would actually be faker than the calm, platitudinal Queen Bey we saw sitting on that couch. She is a monument of control, and Life is as honest a look into what it's like to be Beyoncé — the 24/7 performing, the obsessive strategy, the perfection — as any VH1 special could be. If it's not as compelling as Behind the Music, well, we have plenty of washed-up pop stars for that genre of storytelling. In the meantime, watch the performance half of Life Is But a Dream and re-consider perfectionism. It has its benefits.
