Yield: 8 servings
Time: 1 hour 30 minutes
This delicious cake comes from the island of Capri. There is no flour at all in it, just ground almonds and chocolate. A cross between a chocolate mousse and a cake. Lusciously moist and a sinful chocolate taste in every bite. An all-time favorite of mine and a sure bet at any dinner party. Above all, easy to make. I serve it with Crème Fraîche, Mascarpone or vanilla ice cream.
- 7 oz (200 g) unsalted butter, at room temperature
- 7 oz (200 g) semisweet baking chocolate
- 4 eggs separated
- 6 oz (170 g) sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 9 oz (250 g) finely ground almonds
- zest of 1 lemon
- 1 Tbsp confectioner's sugar
- 1 Tbsp cocoa powder to dust
- Crème fraîche, Mascarpone or vanilla ice cream (optional)
Preheat the oven 340°F (170°C). Grease or line with baking paper a 10 inch (25 cm) removable (springform) pan. Melt butter in a small saucepan over low heat and set aside to cool a bit. Put chocolate into a food processor and process until finely grained. Set aside.
Place egg yolks, sugar, vanilla extract in a bowl and beat it until pale and thick. Fold in chocolate, butter, ground almonds and lemon zest. The mixture should be fairly thick. In a separate bowl, whisk the egg whites until soft peaks appear. Fold egg whites gently into the chocolate almond mix. Spoon it into the cake pan. Level the top gently. Bake it for about 60 minutes or until firm to touch. Let it cool and dust it with a mix of confectioners sugar powder cocoa.
Make it a perfect dessert serving it with crème fraîche, Mascarpone or vanilla ice cream. A bit of grated lemon zest on top of the crème fraîche or Mascarpone ….yummy!

I recently saw Camille Rose Garcia's beautifully illustrated version of "Alice in Wonderland" and not only got one as a gift, but bought one for myself too (um, why yes, I am an only child). I wish I could be in LA for Garcia's show of original work from this book - I'm sure the images are stunning in person. But I hear she's moved to the Northwest, so I'm hoping to catch a future show or book signing soon. Powell's, I'm looking in your general direction.

I use OS X Server at work for about 20 staff. We use it for basic Wiki and file sharing at the moment. Having OS X server allows the user to sync their whole system profile to the server so there will be daily backup of all their work. We are not heavy user of the server at the moment, just running the server with a spare Mac Mini with a large 10T RAID drive. Every year, Apple release a new version of their operating system and it pushes us to keep updating the software on all the machines. Here are just some technical notes on how to backup the server before attempting an upgrade.
Open Directory
To Backup, run from teminal, your backup will be stored at /tmp as a image file, copy that to somewhere for the backup:
sudo slapconfig -backupdb /tmp/odbackups
If there is an error, take a look at the error log. If it is keychain related, "Unable to create archive image as keychain could not be read.", take a look at:
Basically, it might be that the keychain item is missing, you need to recreate it.
For Mountain Lion, you need the item to recreate is
rather than the com.apple.opendirectory one which the articles above described.
To restore OD, follow the instructions at OS X Server: Advanced Administration:
To restore Open Directory data, open the Terminal app (located in the Other folder in Launchpad) and enter the following command:
sudo slapconfig -restoredb /full/path/to/archive.sparseimage
For example, /full/path/to/archive.sparseimage could be /Volumes/Data/myODArchive.sparseimage
Backup the following:
/etc/dns/ (if exist)
This will backup all the wiki on your server. When you restore, it will overwrite all the wiki on the target server.
Update to OS X Server v2.2 or later on both the source and destination servers.
On the source server, execute these commands in Terminal as an administrator, in order to dump the Postgres database to a file:
cd /Applications/Server.app/Contents/ServerRoot/usr/bin/
sudo ./pg_dump -h "/Library/Server/PostgreSQL For Server Services/Socket" –format=c –compress=9 –blobs –username=collab –file=/tmp/collab.pgdump collab
Copy /tmp/collab.pgdump from the source server to /tmp/collab.pgdump on the destination server, then copy the contents of /Library/Server/Wiki/FileData on the source server to /Library/Server/Wiki/FileData on the destination server.
Log in to the destination server as an administrator and execute the following commands in Terminal to ensure correct ownership and permissions, start the Postgres database, populate it with the data dumped from the source server, and finally start up the wiki service:
sudo chown -R _teamsserver:_teamsserver /Library/Server/Wiki/FileData
sudo chmod -R +a "www allow search" /Library/Server/Wiki/FileData
sudo serveradmin stop wiki
sudo serveradmin start postgres_server
cd /Applications/Server.app/Contents/ServerRoot/usr/bin/
sudo ./dropdb -h "/Library/Server/PostgreSQL For Server Services/Socket" -U collab collab
sudo ./createdb -h "/Library/Server/PostgreSQL For Server Services/Socket" -U collab collab
sudo -u _postgres ./pg_restore -h "/Library/Server/PostgreSQL For Server Services/Socket" -d collab -U collab –single-transaction /tmp/collab.pgdump
sudo serveradmin start wiki
Important: These steps will cause any wikis already present on the destination server to be lost.
Software Update
First, switch the SWUS off. Then, check what is the default path:
sudo serveradmin fullstatus swupdate
When you can see the current path of the swupdate files, you can save them as backup. It saves you from having to download gigabytes of data again on your new server.
On your new server, set the path with:
sudo serveradmin settings swupdate:updatesDocRoot = "/Volumes/Data/SWUS/"

Frisbee is a great way to tire out your dog and have fun in the process. You should understand the basics of training a retrieve before you start. Read my article about training a retrieve.
Retrieve and Frisbee are two great training exercises to work on with your dog. As always, focus on keeping your dog engaged and interested in each session instead of getting stressed out about finishing the final behavior in one session. Have fun with it and remember that the journey is just important as the final goal.

I ordered the most beautiful bathing suit for a vacation coming up. This is her.
That's not good. It just looked like I had ruffled skin.
Oh and it was final sale.
So I googled how to dye a bathing suit. And I'm not the only one!! There was a ton of info on how to fix a screw-up!
Joann's sells this gem called iDye Poly You can't dye polyester. Just doesn't happen. The item just laughs the dye off. Unless you buy this. And I bought 2.
Follow the simple directions, cross your fingers, and just hope this hot mess idea works.
It did!

American swimmer James Feigen issued an apology for and an account of an encounter with off-duty Rio police at a gas station during the Summer Olympics that led to an international incident.
The statement, issued through the Olympian's lawyers, began with an apology but corrected the record by obliquely indicating that the swimmer never entered the gas station's bathroom, let alone destroyed its door, mirror, and soap dispenser. USA Today reported that the door, mirror, and soap dispenser in the business's bathroom appeared neither new nor damaged. The newspaper also discovered that, as the swimmers initially reported, the men sticking them up for money indeed worked as police officers when not pulling private security details.
Feigen writes:
This unfortunate incident began after leaving a celebration at the French House. We left the party at around 5:00 am in a taxi to travel back to the Athlete Village. On our way back we asked the cab driver to pull over so we could relieve ourselves. We pulled over to a gas station to use the bathroom but the door was locked. We did not force entry into the bathroom, nor did we ever enter the bathroom. We did, however, make the regrettable decision to urinate in the grass behind the building.
On our way back to the cab, Ryan Lochte pulled a poster in a metal frame off a wall. I got back into the cab and waited for the others. One of my teammates told me that a man with a gun was standing outside the cab. The man with the gun spoke with the cab driver, who got out of the cab. We then got out of the cab and I paid the driver the fare. As I walked away, the man with the gun pointed it at me and my teammate and ordered us, in Portuguese, to sit. This was the first time I have ever had a gun pointed at me and I was terrified.
I put my hands up and sat down on the curb. It became apparent that the man with the gun was telling us to pay, and I was unsure if they were affiliated with the gas station. Gunnar Bentz and I gave the man some money. We were then allowed to leave and we took another cab to the Village, arriving around 7:00 am.
After the off-duty cops shook him down at the gas station, Feigen's statement indicates that the on-duty authorities moved to grab their take. Initially, Brazilian authorities gave him the choice to remain in Brazil for the duration of a legal case against him or pay $31,250 and perform more than two weeks of community service to leave. When Feigen balked, the prosecutor upped the fine to $46,875. Finally, the parties settled for $10,800, with Brazilian authorities not letting the gold medalist leave until receipt of the money.

Wrestle that Shark #4
Oh, and WTS #4 is out. Yay.
That's all for today. I'm beat.
Oh, and WTS #4 is out. Yay.
That's all for today. I'm beat.
it seems necessary that science is pragmatic by jason's defination due to the simple fact of the scientific method. Science, at least as the methodology implies, is not seeking to find truth, because it cannot. it, by method, must only find out what is not the case. science cannot prove a theory true, rather it can only disprove it. so im not sure science can be on the the look out for truth though it does seem like science today is searching for truth or at least trying to get as close to the truth as possible.
also, just as a sidebar, most contemporary pragmatists do not accept relativism. their stance is more of a 'we cant sufficiently deal with relativism so we'll push it aside'. as far as i understand it they avoid the relativistic problem by qualifying the usefullness of x theory, statement, etc.

The family's love as a backdrop for relationships
"You could imagine love as made up of unconditional and conditional components, but the truth is, I don't like to use these words. "Unconditional" suggests perfection--not the human condition. Let's try "open" and "undefensive" love. You can find such love with people today, but it will always be mixed up with some hesitation, holding back, and illusion.Read Moore's full answer and add your comments to the discussion area.
Love is dynamic. It can keep getting better as people get to know each other. But that implies that it's not perfect in its beginnings. It needs room to grow.
This kind of realistic, imperfect, growing love is much better than the extreme romanticism of pulp novels. Realism adds to the pleasure, because when you acknowledge the holes and dents, your love isn't threatened by illusions of perfection."

We could not fault anything at the Bendigo Eppalock Holiday Retreat. We were lucky enough to have a good but cold weather weekend in July ... the house was beautifully warm when we arrived, the beds were very comfortable and the house had everything you could ask for including the open fire and plenty of wood supplied. The activities were great for the kids, fishing close by and son brought his paddleboard which he used each day. I would recommend this house for any large (or small) group holiday.
Overall a brilliant place to stay. Host very obliging. Large comfortable home, with lots of space and outstanding views. We loved the open fire but found it didn't draw well at times making the room smokey. Hardwork barrowing wood to the house as both barrows had flat tyres. A little more attention required to general house keeping, lots of cobwebs and the linen smelt of stale cigarettes. These were only minor problems and would not stop us from returning.
Excellent big family/group accommodation with every facility you could wish for provided. Beautiful, peaceful bush setting with the lake for fishing and swimming. We will be back.
Fantastic relaxing getaway. A lovely property with lots of room. The view of the lake from the verandah is awesome. We had a hens weekend away and all the girls loved it (as well as the dogs, especially swimming in the dam). Thanks again Jan for letting us use your lovely home. I will definately consider returning in the future.

It has happened, the sun, the moon, and the stars must have all aligned themselves.....my 3 kids are away until tomorrow! That's right, you read correctly.....all 3 kids....left Sat with GMa & GPa and won't get home until Tuesday afternoon!
We've hit the trifecta. Believe it or not, this rarely happens. Both sets of grandparents watch our kids once a year while we have a work trip to attend, but other than that the trifecta rarely happens.
I can literally count on one hand the number of times that all 3 kids were gone....even for a few hours at someone else's house....and we were at home.
Staying at home with my kids is a decision I've never regretted. However, 13 years without a break is a long time. Even though they are now all 3 in school, it seems as if the moments alone still are not enough. Does that make any sense? I don't know if it's our busyness, or if it will just take awhile for me to get there.
Lately, I have to confess, I've been feeling run down, worn out....kind of 'over it'...if you know what I mean. Summertime will do that. This break has been such a blessing. Thank you, thank you, thank you...M & D.
This morning I came across a blog that a friend of a friend started. (I told you I do that sometimes....it can be dangerous!) Anyway, this couple just lost their baby boy a month ago. He was born healthy, went to the hospital for dehydration and things spiraled from there. He ended up seeming to have one problem after another and eventually died. He was just 6 months old. I had been following their story the whole time Baby J was in Hopkins through their hospital website. Today was the first time I'd read her blog.
Understandably, she speaks of unimaginable sorrow, and how she's just trying to survive each day. She and her husband have 3 other kids. Here is something she wrote:
"I pray for the millions of parents out there. I pray that they know the true gift and miracle of being a parent and that they use that gift wisely. May they see the magic in their child's eyes and NEVER take a single moment for granted."
Whew! I think that one was for me. I am hoping and praying that by the time my kiddos return tomorrow, I am rejuvinated, ready to engage, and ready to be a better mom. I have much to be thankful for. It is sometimes so easy to take it all for granted.
If you want to check out my friend's, friend's blog, her name is Amy and here is the link:
I wanted to leave you with a short funny story. This was what I was originally going to post about today, it's funny how sometimes you sit down to write and something entirely different comes out.
At the beginning of the summer, some neighbors of ours were getting ready to have some work done on their home. A small sign was placed in their front yard listing the company's name and # and a port-a-potty was delivered and placed on the side of the house. We happened to be driving out of the neighborhood while the port-a-potty was being taken off the truck.
Mike TV was with me and he says to me:
Mike: Cool, it looks like the Joneses (not their real names) are putting in a port-a-potty. Awesome!
Me: I think they are getting their basement finished. The port-a-potty is for the workers to use.
Mike: Oh, so you mean when their basement is finished, they will take away the port-a-potty?
Me: Yep.
Mike: That is too bad.
Is that the way an 8 year old boy thinks, or what??? :)
Have a good day. I'm out of here.

What's a "radiant point"? When you google the term not a whole lot comes up, but we all have one. The secret here is to be aware of what it is, set it, and use it to help yourself!
I took a quick summer course with a rad teacher who is super keen on personal growth and understanding yourself. This is where I first heard the term "radiant point". I'll try to keep this as short and informative as possible but I know I'll miss something considering I'm trying to jam 5 hours of class time into one blog post. Please don't hesitate to get in contact with me if you have more questions, I'd love to help you understand your radiant point better.
First, let's back track to my first question, "What is a radiant point"? When you finish this paragraph, I want you to close your eyes and think. Think of an item or a place that draws you in. Something/place that inspires you. Something/place that you simply love. This can also be a pet if you choose, but not a person. Don't continue until you have that in mind.
Did you think of something? Here, now I'll tell you mine. Succulents. Succulents, cacti, any green resilient plant. I find myself to attracted to these little guys. The way they can endure so much and look so beautiful. The aesthetic aspects they bring into a room. I have always been so infatuated with them!
Next you must set your radiant point. This may not be something you can do right away, but I highly encourage that you follow through and set it. You will need a group of people, they can be family members, friends, hell… it can be a group of strangers. It doesn't have to be too many people, but the more the better! You'll bring your radiant point or if you can't, a picture, and jot out three columns on a piece of paper, white board, or chalk board. The columns will be as follows:
Column one- physical characteristics of this item/place. Explain this item/place as if you were trying to describe it to someone who had never seen it before. You group may chime in ideas.
Column two- how this item/place makes you feel. Emotions attached.
Column three- what your group gathers from all of this information. What they notice about you or your item/place from this exercise. What information they may have gathered that connects you and this item/place. The more the better here.
Because column three may be a bit confusing here are some things my class said about me and my item to give you a little push in what direction you may need to head:
- enjoys life
- individualistic
- resilient
- drawn to the aesthetically pleasing
- connected
By visually seeing all the words and phrases from each column and physically seeing and hearing them said, you are setting your radiant point. You are understanding why you feel that connection and seeing things about yourself you may have not noticed or truly thought about that may very well be some of your strongest characteristics. Let yourself thrive off these things and hold onto them within your radiant point.
Now, I am sure you may be wondering how your radiant point can help you. You may even have a few ideas yourself. The answer I will give is very fluid because the answer is different for everyone. Your radiant point is something that you can draw strength, creativity, joy, etc. from just by thinking of it. Here are a few examples…
An artist suffering from a creative block may take a few moments to take themselves to their radiant point, in whatever way their brain finds the most soothing, "reset" and get back to work with ease with their radiant point in mind.
Someone suffering from social anxiety is placed in a stressing situation. They may find a moment of solitude and take themselves to their radiant point, again in whatever way their brain finds the most soothing and draw strength. Keeping in mind the characteristics that both themselves and their radiant point have. Holding onto that strength they can face the stressing situation.
The list can go on and on. How you use your radiant point to your advantage is up to you, your needs, and your willingness to truly draw those things from your radiant point.
I've found that even taking a moment to soak in the vibes from my radiant point everyday can help me get through stressing moments that come and pass as I go about my day. I hope that once you set aside the time to set your radiant point you will begin to see the wonders it can work in your life.

The Babylonian invasion of Judah is one of the most momentous events in the history of Israel. It resulted in the destruction of the capital Jerusalem, the exile of the population to a foreign land, the end of independent rule by kings from the house of David and most importantly, the destruction of the glorious temple built by King Solomon. There was a controversy at one time about whether the Bible exaggerated the event. Some today still might still dispute certain details, but the archaeological evidence is clear, there can be no doubt as to whether those events occurred. Continue reading

More Evidence for Hezekiah's Reforms At Lachish!
(Alternate Title: The Wrong Kind Of Throne!)
About 40 kilometers (25 miles) from Jerusalem is a massive mound that was once the Biblical city of Lachish. Only Jerusalem was more important in all the cities of the ancient Kingdom of Judah. Bible students are grateful for years of careful archeological study of the site as it has enriched our understanding of important Biblical events like the Assyrian invasion of Judah and the later Babylonian invasion.
Recent work shines a light on another important Biblical event: the religious reforms of King Hezekiah. When Hezekiah was enthroned, the worship of Jehovah, centered around the temple in Jerusalem, had been neglected for decades, certainly during Continue reading
The Mystery of "Absalom's Tomb" – Part 1
At the base of the Mount of Olives, in the valley of Kidron, just outside the city walls of Jerusalem is a striking rock-cut tomb that has been commonly called for centuries, the "Tomb of Absalom". Passerby would traditionally throw stones at it and fathers of disobedient children would bring them there to show what happened to rebellious sons.
The attribution of the monument as the tomb of Absalom comes from the passage at 2 Samuel 18:18, " Now Absalom, while he was alive, had taken and set up for himself a pillar in the Valley of the King, for he said: "I have no son to preserve the memory of my name." So he named the pillar after himself, and it is called Absalom's Monument to this day." Continue reading
Did The Canaanites Really Sacrifice Their Children?
Were the Canaanites merciless child killers or gentle nature worshipers?
Warning: Subject matter may disturb
Historical revisionist theories regularly receive more traction among Bible critics than the facts would warrant. For example, consider the case of polytheism verses monotheism. Most religious history books teach that cultures that were polytheistic (believers in many gods) naturally progressed towards becoming monotheistic (believers in one God). This is seen, even by agnostics as being a necessary step toward becoming a more mature society. Increasingly however, Bible critics challenge that idea. They see the move from polytheism to monotheism as a negative thing. According to their revisionist version of history, gentle nature worshiping polytheistic societies such as Canaan were supplanted by aggressive monotheistic cultures like the Hebrews which were less tolerant, sexually repressed and war-like.

Huge thank you to Gallery Books, NetGalley, and Christina Lauren for giving me the opportunity to read this eARC! The following will be an open and honest review.
You guys….I have seriously come to the conclusion that I will love every single thing that these two lovely ladies put out. I first read and loved the Wild Seasons books and then quickly moved onto the Beautiful Bastard series which I also devoured. They will never cease to make you laugh, cry, and blush profusely.
I definitely enjoyed this one in particular as it had some angst in the form both MCs, Carter and Evie (dubbed Evil), fighting for the same position at their merged company. It was an interesting take on the hating to loving trope because they had met BEFORE the chaos started and really hit it off. So that spark was there the entire time, even while the fighting commenced. Their prank war was HILARIOUS. I have not laughed out loud so many times at a book in quite awhile which was a relief after the emotional roller coaster that was ACOWAR.
I'll be adding some of my favorite quotes once the book comes out but just know that I HIGHLY recommend–whether or not you've read anything by them or not, this one is a keeper.

I love books. One of the little books I bought last 2008 was the "The Next 500 Stories by Frank Mihalic, SVD. It's a red colored book and the 3rd volume of Fr. Mihalic's collection of anecdotes and short stories. What I like about it is its simple conversation and it's enriched with wisdom, wit and humor. According to Fr. Frank the purpose of his book is to be of help to his Pacific islands brothers and sisters who need stories to communicate their messages. He believes in the Indian guro Vyasa's observation that "the shortest distance between a human being and a truth is a story."
Arrived home past 10 in the evening today and the red book seemed to greet me tonight. Missed reading it also because lately I've been hanging out with new books of leadership and management. Well, now I'm glad I'm with it. I need to re-charge myself from work and life pressures. And I love to share the story no. 214. It really helped me re-charged realizing my best ally is in me.
Fr. Frank said "a story is not story 'till we retell it. So here it is…ME AND MYSELF Some people can't bear to be by themselves. They must have action and sound. Left to their own devices, They aimlessly flounder around. Some folks don't seem to have what it takes To spend one hour alone, And thus they never really found What inner sources they own. Now, as much as I like people, And enjoy their company, There's a part of each day I must wander away, Just to talk things over with me. Try it sometime and you'll be surprised At how little yourself you'll bore. You'll sigh with delight, "Why, this guy's all right! Why haven't we met before?"

at a certain point in the human centipede 3, dieter laser's character, prison warden bill boss, looks directly into the camera and says 'hey, cockroaches! do you like these movies?'
in the context of the film it's a question to the 500 inmates who have just sat through back-to-back screenings of the first two human centipede film. it's also a direct question to the audience and a clear reminder that we're once again in the realm of the theatre of cruelty.
bill boss is the warden of george h w bush state prison and he and his accountant, dwight butler (laurence r. harvey sporting a toothbrush moustache that is more oliver hardy than adolf hitler), are struggling to find new ways to keep the inmate population under control. when governor hughes (eric roberts) gives the two of them an ultimatum they devise increasingly extreme ways to force the prison population into submission. while boss favours genital mutilation and boiling waterboarding, butler has another idea, something he saw in a movie once…
compared to the bleak, arthouse aesthetic of the second film, this is a sun-drenched, slapstick, over-the-top comedy. much of the action takes place in boss and butlers' office in scenes that are written and staged like almost like a traditional british farce. from the moment laser and harvey speak it's clear that between laser's occasionally incoherent ranting and harvey's southern drawl with a hint of wigan there will be no attempt at naturalism here. if the second film had elements of looney tunes cartoons, this film plays like an extended episode of south park, only much more determined to offend.
laser's performance made the first film work just as harvey's carried the second one, and the two combined make a truly demented double team. harvey's butler is actually the most likable character in the film, which is saying something as he's the one advocating the human centipede. he manages to take the misunderstood loner elements from his character in the second film and use those characteristics to make butler almost endearing. meanwhile, laser's performance is a hundred times more insane than that of the first film. he makes use of every inch of the frame every second he's on camera, which is pretty much every scene, and sometimes his enthusiasm seems so genuine it almost disguises the content of the dialogue, so lines like 'thank god for female circumcision' almost slip under the radar before you think, 'did he really just say that?'. it's an incredibly physical performance, with every rant and offensive tirade coupled with appropriate (or inappropriate) gurning and thrusting and occasionally even dancing. he plays boss as someone who delights in the suffering of others, to the point where he is even quite explicit about being sexually aroused by it. whatever laser is doing, it works. boss is one of the most disgusting, despicable characters ever portrayed on film and laser makes sure that he's completely unforgettable.
like the second film, there's no real narrative tension in the human centipede 3. yes, boss and butler face losing their jobs if they can't control the inmates, but we're never really tasked with caring about them all that much. the conflict of the first half of the film is butler needing to convince boss that the human centipede idea will work, and once he does convince him (by bringing in director tom six, playing himself) the drama becomes more about whether butler and the prison surgeon will be allowed to finish the centipede before boss kills everyone. but that's not the real story here; there's something much more interesting going on.
when boss is explaining what he intends to do to the inmates after screening the first two human centipede films, i couldn't help thinking of a scene from the da vinci code. there's a moment in the book where robert langdon is lecturing a prison population about art. dan brown's intention in that scene is clear – you, dear reader, are uneducated scum and i'm here to save you from your own ignorance. six has a similar approach here, and it's quite clear that the 500 inmates represent us, the audience. however, in the case of the human centipede six isn't trying to educate his audience but offend them. it's easy to transpose boss's frustration at his failed attempts at forcing the inmates into submission to six's frustration at being unable to truly offend those watching his films, until he finds a new way to do so. the idea of the prisoners as the audience is never more explicit than in the screening scene, when one of the prisoners stands up and declares the human centipede films are harmful and should be banned, echoing the bbfc's ruling on the second film. this theory holds up until six himself appears in the film and shows that even his character is disgusted by what is happening. this suggests that perhaps the film isn't necessarily about a filmmaker's struggle to reach new levels of depravity but is perhaps a comment on cinema in general.
there's an element of the human centipede 3 that feels very much like a satirical statement about american culture as a whole. as characters, boss and butler are parodies of over-used hollywood stereotypes and there are frequent shots of the american flag and shades of the national anthem in the score. as the second film referenced the gritty realist films of mike leigh and ken loach, the third film is a clear parody of the hollywood machine. six has stated that his trilogy was supposed to be a centipede itself, and this idea works in the way that each of the previous films are incorporated into the next like waste passing through the human digestive system. from there, it's easy to make a comparison between the shit that passes through the human centipede and the perceived state of the hollywood product, with the same ideas being swallowed and excreted over and over again by a captive audience. at times, it feels like this whole project was both a comment on hollywood movies and a challenge to the studio system, because whatever you think of six's work it can't be denied that there is originality here. on this basis, it becomes apparent why six distances himself from boss by appearing in the film. it's not about his frustration at being unable to truly offend, it's about his disgust with the state of mainstream cinema.
taking all this into account, lets look at the one female character in the film. bree olson plays boss and butlers' secretary. daisy. in her very first scene she is subjected to a casual sexual assault from boss and things only get worse for her from there. daisy only exists in the film to be abused, with no opportunity for revenge. even when beaten into a coma her suffering continues. to make matters worse, she serves no purpose in the story, with even the hint of narrative purpose in her relationship with butler coming to nothing in the end. she is an extreme and utterly abhorrent example of female objectification at it's most vile, and on the surface seems like a crass and ill-advised attempt to offend anyone with even the vaguest belief in gender equality. except by being so deliberately offensive, it becomes completely inoffensive.
in my review of the human centipede 2 i went off on a bit of a tangent about the representation of women in game of thrones, a show that remains revered and critically acclaimed despite the rampant and unnecessary objectification of women in every episode. my point about the second film was that it's hard to be offended at something that is at least honest about what it is. in this film I think six is actually making a real point about the representation of women in mainstream cinema.
daisy is a perfect example of the token female character. in the majority of hollywood movies, the token female character exists to be objectified i.e. to look pretty for the male audience members, usually not wearing very much. occasionally she will be put into peril (or 'damselled') to drive the story forward, if she's really lucky she will be raped or killed or both in order to give the male protagonist a reason to take revenge. the treatment of daisy in the human centipede 3 is no different to the treatment of the token female character in most movies, it's just that six is honest about it. if your female character exists only to be an object for the male gaze with no narrative purpose, then why not have her casually raped and brutalised? what does it matter? the poor representation of women in films is offensive when it's casual, and though i'm loath to mention the overused bechdel test, the point of that test was to point out how widespread this casual misogyny really is. by making the objectification so obvious it's abhorrent, six not only makes his token female character less offensive than the norm but also makes a bold statement about the representation of women in films. while i perhaps wouldn't go so far as to call the human centipede 3 a feminist film, i do believe it has a strong and effective feminist message about the way hollywood presents women.
that last thought ultimately sums up what i took from the experience. bill boss has no respect for his audience, he wants to line them up, force feed them junk food, and then watch as the shit passes from one audience member to the next. why does he want to do this? because he wants his audience to be submissive. he wants them to take whatever he is feeding them without complaint and in doing so further his own career. bill boss isn't a caricature of a prison warden, he's a caricature of a hollywood producer. it's hollywood movies that are depraved and disgusting. it's hollywood movies that are casually and discreetly racist, misogynist and worse. whatever you think of this film, it puts all its ugliness upfront where it can be seen. that's more than you can say about most films, hollywood or otherwise. it's this hypocrisy that six is directly attacking with his work, and i think he should be applauded for having the audacity to do so.
i can't say i thoroughly enjoyed this film, much like the other two entries in the trilogy, but i did appreciate it. there is genius at work here, not the kind of visionary, high-definition christopher nolan-type genius that most filmmakers aspire to, but a vulgar, antagonistic and ultimately realist genius that we need more of in cinema. tom six may not be the best filmmaker of the twenty-first century, but he is certainly one of the most important.
the human centipede 3 will be released by eureka and monster pictures in selected cinemas from 10th july 2015, and on blu-ray, dvd and vod on 13th july 2015.

RENO - The Rainiers' staff ace couldn't beat the Reno Aces on Saturday night.
Tacoma starter Luke French entered the game leading the Pacific Coast League in wins and earned-run average, and he kept Reno scoreless while Tacoma built an early 3-0 lead.
But the Aces got to the ace for one run in the fourth, tied it on Jeff Bailey's homer in the fifth, then took the lead with two more runs in the sixth inning on the way to a 6-3 win over the Rainiers at Aces Ballpark.
Yunesky Sanchez tripled in the go-ahead run with one out in the sixth – one of three triples off French. Ed Rogers had a two-out, pinch-hit RBI single to score Sanchez and make it 5-3, sending French to the showers.
French (10-3) saw his ERA rise from 2.69 to 2.97 in the loss.
Tacoma manager Daren Brown was more concerned about the Rainiers' offense. He knows that three runs is rarely enough to win in hitter-friendly Aces Ballpark, and his team missed a number of scoring opportunities.
"We had an early 3-0 lead and it should have been 6-0," said Brown. "We didn't do a good job of situational hitting – getting guys in from third base with less than two outs. We had it happen three times in the first four innings, and we didn't score."
Dustin Ackley had his first multiple-hit game as a member of the Rainiers, driving opposite-field doubles in each of his first two at-bats.
"They were trying to stay away from him, and he did a nice job driving the ball to the left side," Brown said.
Ackley had an opportunity to tie the game with a single when he batted with the bases loaded and two outs in the top of the seventh inning, but veteran Reno reliever T.J. Beam got Ackley to pop up a two-strike breaking ball for the final out.
Mike Sweeney went 3-for-5 in the first game of an injury rehabilitation assignment. The Mariners' designated hitter is on the disabled list with back spasms; he hit two singles and a double Saturday. Brown said that he expects Sweeney to be with the team for at least a couple days.
Matt Torra (6-6) earned the win for Reno, pitching into the seventh inning after allowing three early runs.
Mike Wilson went 0-for-4, ending his team-best hitting streak at 12 games. ... Greg Halman went 15 straight plate appearances without striking out before Torra got him swinging in the sixth.
The series concludes with a 5:05 game today. Tacoma's Michael Pineda (2-0, 4.43 ERA) takes the mound against Reno's Wes Roemer (1-4, 6.67). It will be Pineda's first start since he allowed six runs in the fourth inning against Fresno on July 9

Wag the Dog
The media is the source of contact we Americans keep with the other parts of the world. Without it how would we know what was going on in the globe? Fox News, CNN, NBC, and many others are our sources of information. Numerous people watch the news to see what is going on in other countries and in our own country. The news we hear creates a huge problem of knowledge, because reporters have a bias and we as the people do not know where the information is coming from.
The media shapes people's worldview. The intense focus on everything that is dangerous makes people believe that the world is more dangerous than it really is. Most of the time we are afraid of the wrong things. For example, I as a teenager am more afraid of getting kidnapped than a nuclear weapon being shot at the United States. The latter is definitely the more dangerous one, but in this day and time the media brings the attention of the American people to a kidnapping case rather than informing them of the ways of Iraq, North Korea, and Afghanistan.
When a reporter is researching a story and trying to gather information, they will want to sell that news as much as they can. The reporter knew that more people would pay attention to the article if it looked like more destruction had happened.
An excellent example of a "reporter" being biased about their information is the movie Wag the Dog. In this movie a man is hired to create a story about something else and take the minds of the American public off of a sex scandal that went on with the President, just days before the election. This film shows that you cannot trust the media for news. The media just receives the news from several sources, probably not even knowing if it is true they put in on the channel to have something to talk about. For example, the reporter in the movie created this entire story up about how the President was sick and going to remain in China for a day. After that the story just got...

Mario Tractor
Back in the day when King Kuppa was harassing the Mushroom Kingdom, a plumber appeared and went on to defeat him. It was a glorious day for the kingdom and the people has been thanking him ever since, but we all know that we can't live in the past. At some time, we need to move on and concentrate on the present. As such, Mario and his brother Luigi left Brooklyn New York, not to become a hero, but to become a farmer. This is something that the two have been thinking of when they retire. With all the money that they got for being a hero, they went on to become a farmer. Sure, it was fun and rewarding, but they need some recreation and their tractor is all they need. At times, they would sue their tractors to participate in a countryside race. When the glorious Princess Peace decided to hold a race among his constituents, he remember the fact that they are mostly farmers, so instead of the usual cars, they would use a tractor in the race. When Mario heard about it, he thought that this is the best time to see some of his old friends. Besides, the prize is good as well. He would need the money in case he wins it. In this game, there are no other contestant other than Mario. The idea here is to get to the finish line as fast as you can while carrying some coins at the back of your tractor. You start off with no coins at all and you would need to collect those along the way. Each coin that you pick up on the road would reside at the back of the tractor. To get to the next level, you need to meet the amount of coins necessary to go to the next level.

David Morgan | October 2, 2017 - 12:33pm
Listen to the Podcast Audio: https://www.moneymetals.com/podcasts...trouble-001167
Mike Gleason: It is my privilege now, to welcome back our good friend David Morgan, of The Morgan Report. David, it's always a real pleasure to have you on with us. How are you, sir?
David Morgan: Mike, I'm doing well. Thank you for having me.
Mike Gleason: Well, first off, let's discuss what's been driving the recent pullback in your view. Gold was over $1,350 not too long ago and is now is decisively back under $1,300, as we're talking here on Wednesday afternoon. Silver has pulled back, and is moving toward the lower end of its year-long trading range, and has a 16 handle, once again. So what do you make of the recent market action, and what's behind it David?
David Morgan: Well, it's a lot of, algorithms that trade all these markets. You can't get around that fact. The second thing is, a lot of people are -- in my view -- been on the lazy side, which means they just generally off the technical analysis doesn't work, because it's a manipulated market. Well, actually it works fine, if you ever took the time to read The Silver Manifesto, with my co-author, Chris Marchese, you would definitely find out that technical analysis is a tool. It's not perfect, but it's something to pay attention to.
So, when we have a support or resistance level, it normally takes three tries to get through that level, either from the upside or the downside. Recent times, $1,300 was the level that had to be tested three times, for gold to have that $1,300 breakout. It did it. Third try it went through. It got up to $1,350. I warned my members at that time that normally, a breakout level is tested at least one time, and forecast it would see $1,300 or below. And it was moving higher, higher, higher, and there were a lot of articles about gold is at a 11-month high, gold is at a 12-month high.
And I don't want to say I get it right every time. I'm not trying to imply that. What I'm trying to imply is that technical analysis does have some benefit, and that there are some general principles that work most of the time, this being one of them. The last one that cinched it for me, and this is one that you've got to combine as much knowledge as you can, and throw out the junk and keep the diamonds, then that is what the Commitment of Traders look like. And the Commitment of Traders look very unsatisfactory at the time that gold was getting in this 11-month, 12-month high area.
It looked to me like, based on the COT, that it was also due to come back. So, that's the reason ... I mean as trite as it sounds, it's absolutely the most honest and truthful thing you can say about why a market was up or down, it's because there's more sellers than buyers, that's why the market goes down, or there's more buyers than sellers and that's why the market moves up. I don't care if it's wheat. I don't care if it's rice. I don't care if it's a stock or an ETF, gold or silver. It does not matter.
If there's buying pressure, it goes higher. If there's selling pressure, it moves lower. It's that simple. What everyone wants to know is why, and that is too difficult to announce, because there could be individual reasons. Someone might have an emergency and they sell a bag of silver because that's all the savings they have, or whatever. So I don't want to go down this rabbit hole too far, Mike, but I want to state, is you can generally say, "Oh, yes. The Fed announced they're going to raise rates and they're going taper back on their balance sheet," and all this stuff, and everyone says, "Well, that's the reason."
Well that's a reason, and it may be one of the major reasons, but it's not necessarily all reasons. So I'll leave it at that.

The District will receive more than 5,400 adult doses of flu vaccine from Congress, the World Bank, the International Monetary Fund and a downtown legal firm -- a major shot in the arm given the national shortfall that has left many medical providers in the city with virtually no inventory.
More than half the total was handed over yesterday as a donation from the attending physician of the Capitol, officials said. The attending physician's office has been criticized for making shots widely available to members of Congress and their staffs, even as the public was waiting for hours in lines for the vaccine and the federal government was urging that it be given only to those at highest risk.
The rest of the doses will be on hand by Friday, either obtained at cost or for free from the World Bank, the IMF and the law firm of Sidley, Austin, Brown & Wood. For a city health department scrambling for every shot, just like public health agencies across the country, the sudden inventory is a relief.
"It's only a fraction of the need," said the city's acting health director, Gregg A. Pane. "Still, 5,400 doses are better than none or a few."
They will be distributed largely through the D.C. Hospital Association and two medical societies, as well as the primary care organization that represents community clinics and the Whitman-Walker Clinic, which treats many HIV patients. City paramedics also will benefit.
The "data-driven distribution," Pane said, should ensure that the most vulnerable populations are the most likely to benefit -- the elderly, adults with chronic conditions and frontline health-care workers and emergency responders. The plan is a far different from Montgomery County's: It is holding a lottery that so far has more than 16,000 county residents vying for 800 flu shots.
Before half of the nation's expected vaccine supply this winter was thrown out because of possible contamination, the city had anticipated receiving 24,000 adult flu doses. However, all of those were ordered from Chiron Corp., the company that this month was criticized for problems at its British manufacturing plant.
The federal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention now is working with Aventis Pasteur, the country's other supplier, to ship its remaining inventory to targeted destinations. The District hopes to obtain 12,000 more doses through that channel by early December.
The D.C. Health Care Association, which represents local nursing homes, just learned of a significant delivery on the way from Aventis and declined city officials' offer of a portion of yesterday's windfall, Pane said.
The 3,000 doses from Capitol Hill came after pointed pressure from D.C. Del. Eleanor Holmes Norton (D), who suggested that the Capitol's attending physician, John F. Eisold, had favored "preference categories" of elected officials over the CDC's "priority categories of Americans."
"For humanitarian reasons," she requested that any remaining vaccine or additional deliveries be turned over to the city.
"I'm very relieved, at least in the short run," Norton said yesterday, accompanied by Pane and representatives of some of the organizations that will be responsible for dispensing the supply. "They could not be more needed" on the local front, she stressed.
Top congressional leaders praised the transfer.
"Dr. Eisold has done great work in trying to keep the Capitol Hill community healthy," said House Speaker J. Dennis Hastert (R-Ill.). "This decision reflects his desire to help keep the region healthy."
Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist (R-Tenn.), a physician who until several days ago had been urging even healthy colleagues to be immunized, called the contribution "the right thing to do."
The vaccine obtained from the other sources came about through phone calls, including one from a law firm employee wondering about its scheduled vaccine clinic. City officials said they contacted the firm, which offered to turn over its supply at cost.
Norton and Pane urged other businesses and doctors to do the same with any vaccine that will not go to high-risk employees or patients. Pane estimated that 25,000 doses are in private practitioners' hands. "It's a maldistribution," he said.
An emergency rule remains in effect in the city prohibiting providers from giving vaccine to anyone not in a high-risk group.

All-Star Athlete Gabby Douglas hits reality TV
Remember Gabby Douglas? The youngest and first African American woman to compete and win in the U.S Olympic Women Gymnastics?
Well, I sure hope so because the now 20-year-old is coming back to our TV sets in two ways: she is competing in a new competition and Gabby will also be documenting her family's journey of coming into their own careers.
The show will be titled "Douglas Family Gold", which is premiering May 25th on the Oxygen Network. Each episode will show how the athlete is preparing for the Rio Games 2016, known as the biggest sports event on the planet.
With this being the first time we get to see the Douglas' life during competition season, the show should be very entertaining and insightful.
