Cinefranco Film Festival 2004 - UPDATE #2
Nez Rouge
Directed by Eric Canuel
Nez Rouge is almost a prototypical romantic comedy; it's got all the elements we've come to expect from such a film, including two characters that initially hate each other, the phony break-up, and (of course) the final, triumphant kiss at the end. Félix (Patrick Huard) is a snooty critic who once gave a terrible review to Céline's (Michèle-Barbara Pelletier) play, going so far as to suggest she quit writing altogether. So, when Félix is sentenced to a stint at Nez Rouge (a service that picks up drunk people and drives them home) after a DUI conviction, Céline uses the opportunity to get her revenge (Félix doesn't realize who she is). Somewhere in the midst of pushing him down escalators and spilling drinks on him, though, Céline finds herself falling for Félix. Nez Rouge is very charming when it sticks to the more romantic elements within the story (ie a ride aboard a horse-drawn carriage), but director Eric Canuel (along with screenwriters Sylvie Desrosiers and Sylvie Pilon) spends a bit too much time on needless subplots. Such moments serve only as a distraction, and we'd much rather see Félix and Céline interacting with each other. The film runs close to two hours, a running time that's overlong by at least 30 minutes; had some of the superfluous elements been excised, there's no doubt that Nez Rouge would be an ideal romantic comedy. Still, Canuel does a nice job of infusing the story with bursts of style (the film is a marked improvement over La Loi Du Cochon, a derivative thriller from 2001), and the two leads are incredibly appealing in their roles.
out of
There's always one at every film festival. A movie so bad and so incoherent that it's impossible to imagine what the programmer was thinking when he/she picked it. Ce jour-là certainly falls under that category, a film that defies description (and not in a good way, either). The movie is set in Switzerland at some undetermined point in the future, where Livia (Elsa Zylberstein) teams up with an escaped psychopath (played by Bernard Giraudeau) and begins offing her family (for no reason whatsoever, although there is a hint that maybe they're after her money). The fact that the film is set in the future seems to be an excuse for all the inexplicable developments in the story (ie Livia doesn't seem concerned that a nutcase is killing everyone around her). The only way any of this even begins to make sense is if we're to infer that the world has been overrun by crazy people, but that's not even alluded to. There isn't a hint of expository dialogue in the film; it's all nonsensical conversations about tarot cards and naming horses. It becomes evident almost immediately that Ce jour-là is less a movie and more an endurance test, as though the filmmakers are daring audience members to sit through the whole thing. Writer/director Raoul Ruiz has helmed almost 100 movies in his long career, leaving me to conclude that - somewhere along the way - he lost his mind and came up with this. That he managed to convince a lot of very good actors (including legendary French performer Michel Piccoli) to appear in this chaotic mess is incredible, and will likely convince a lot of folks that the movie is worth checking out. It's not.

John Witherspoon is considered "the great teacher" of the American Revolution for Independence. Witherspoon (1723 - 1794) has the distinction of being the sole clergyman who signed the Declaration of Independence. He was born in Scotland and educated in Edinburgh. This prominent preacher became an advocate of historic Christian faith when modernizing movements troubled the Presbyterian church. As leader of the Popular Party, Witherspoon was involved in Scottish church politics resisting the hereditary rights of Scotish lords.
When moving to America in 1768, Witherspoon became the President of Princeton and eventually became an outspoken advocate of pro-independence politics. Elected to the Continental Congress, Witherspoon signed the Declaration of Independence of 1776. Serving in Congress till 1782 when independence was secured, he returned to Princeton where he continued to teach until his death. He continued to serve the government of New Jersey and became a prominent national figure.
Witherspoon, as president of Princeton, was accused of turning the college into a "seminary of sedition." His impact upon his students at Princeton was profound. Concerning Witherspoon, one writer declared, "twenty future senators, twenty-five future congressmen, three future governors, and one future president of the United States - James Madison, who remained at Princeton after graduation to pursue further studies under Witherspoon." Widely read were his works liberty and the role of religion in establishing civic virture. His works were profoundly influencial in the shaping of the American Constitution.
"The Dominion of Providence over the Passions of Men" is a sermon preached on May 17, 1776 at Princeton. The sermon clearly reveals that John Witherspoon was a most important "political parson" of the American War for Independence againt Great Britain.
"If your cause is just - you may look with confidence to the Lord and intreat him to plead it as his own. You are all my witnesses, that this is the first time of my introducing any political subject into the pulpit. At this season however, it is not only lawful but necessary, and I willingly embrace the opportunity of declaring my opinion without hesitation, that the cause in which America is now in arms, is the cause of justice, of liberty, and of human nature. So far as we have hitherto proceeded, I am satisfied that the confederacy of the colonies, has not been the effect of pride, resentment, or sedition, but of a deep and general conviction, that our civil and religious liberties, and consequently in a great measure the temporal and eternal happiness of us and our posterity, depended on the issue. The knowledge of God and his truths have from the beginning of the world have been chiefly, if not entirely, confined to those parts of the earth, where some degree of liberty and political justice were to be seen, and great were the difficulties with which they had to struggle from the imperfection of human society, and unjust decisions of usurped authority. There is not a single instance in history in which civil liberty was lost, and religious liberty preserved entire. If therefore we yield up our temporal property, we at the same time deliver the conscience into bondage..."John Witherspoon, May 17,1776
I have said, if your principles are pure - the meaning of this is, if your present opposition to the claims of the British ministry does not arise from a seditious and turbulent spirit, or a wanton contempt of legal authority; from a blind and factious attachment to particular persons or parties; or from a selfish rapacious disposition, and a desire to turn public confusion to private profit - but from a concern for the interest of your country, and the safety of yourselves and your posterity. On this subject I cannot help observing, that thou it would be a miracle if there were not many selfish persons among us, and discoveries now and then made of mean and interested transactions, yet they have been comparatively inconsiderable both in number and effect. In general, there has been so great a degree of public spirit, that we have much more reason to be thankful for its vigor and prevalence, than to wonder at the few appearances of dishonesty or disaffection. It would be very uncandid to ascribe the universal lardo that has prevailed among all ranks of men, and the spirited exertions in the most distant colonies, to any thing else than public spirit. Nor was there ever perhaps in history so general a commotion from which religious differences have been so entirely excluded. Nothing of this kind has as yet have been heard, except of late in the absurd, but malicious and detestable attempts of our few remaining enemies to introduce them. At the same time I must also, for the honor of this country observe, that though government in the ancient forms has been so long unhinged, and in some colonies not sufficient care taken to substitute another in its place; yet there has been, by common consent, a much greater degree of order and public peace, than men of reflection and experience foretold or expected. From all these circumstances I conclude favorably and the principles of the friends of liberty, and do earnestly exhort you to adopt and act upon those which have been described, and resist the influence of every other..."
Suffer me to recommend to you an attention to the public interest of religion, or in other words, zeal for the glory of Godand the good of others. I have already endeavored to exhort sinners to repentance; what I have here in view is to point out to you the concern which every good man ought to take in the national character and manners, and the means which he ought to use for promoting public virtue, and bearing down impiety and vice. This is a matter of the utmost moment, and which ought to be well understood, both in its nature and principles. Nothing is more certain than that a general profligacy and corruption of manners make a people ripe for destruction. A good form of government may hold the rotten materials together for some time, but beyond a certain pitch, even the best constitution will be ineffectual, and slavery must ensue. On the other hand, when the manners of a nation are pure, when true religioun and internal principles maintain their vigor, the attempts of the most powerful enemies to oppress them are commonly baffled and disappointed. This will be found equally certain, whether we consider the great principles of God's moral government, or the operation and influences of natural causes."
What follows from this? That he is the best friend to American liberty, who is most sincere and active in promoting true and undefiled religion, and who sets himself with the greatest firmness to bear down profanity and immorality of every kind. Whoever is an avowed enemy of God, I scruple not to call him an enemy to his country. Do not suppose, my brethren, that I mean to recommend a furious and angry zeal for the circumstantials of religion, or the contentions of one sect with another about their peculiar distinctions. I do not wish you to oppose any body's religion, but every body's wickedness. Perhaps there are few surer marks of the reality of religion, than when a man feels himelf more joined in spirit to a true holy person of a different denomination, than to an irregular live of his own. It is therefore your duty in this important and critical season to exert yourselves, every one in his proper sphere, to stem the tide of prevailing vice, to promote the knowledge of God, the reverence of his name and worship, and obedience to his laws.

Duke University is known more for academics (and basketball) rather than being a football powerhouse, but the North Carolina school did produce a solid football player and now media personality in Brian Baldinger. An 11-year veteran of the NFL who played for the Dallas Cowboys, Indianapolis Colts and Philadelphia Eagles, Baldinger is probably better known as an author, speaker and TV commentator. He is the author of "The Map to Clear Messages" and also a teacher in addition to all his work covering the NFL. Both of his brothers also played pro football, and Baldinger is remembered for his toughness and the injury he sustained when his pinky finger got stuck in an opponent's facemask. Thankfully the broadcast booth is a little less violent, and Baldinger has made a smooth transition to his second career after retiring from the NFL in 1993.
Brian Baldinger is one of the busiest sports broadcasters in the business, but TSE has the resources and contacts to arrange for a Brian Baldinger appearance or Brian Baldinger endorsement. All it takes to get started is one call or e-mail to TSE.
**Brian Baldinger Speaker**
The first Brian Baldinger speaker appearance on TV occurred while he was covering NFL Europe games. That's not exactly a prime job, but he quickly moved up the ranks to become one of Fox's top NFL analysts and a popular media figure.
**Brian Baldinger Appearance**
It's not hard to find a Brian Baldinger appearance on TV. He does work for Fox, the NFL Network and WXIA-TV in Atlanta. When you throw in a radio show and a published book, you get a lot of bang for your buck with a Brian Baldinger appearance because he is so well known.
**Brian Baldinger Endorsement**
All the work that he has done over the years certainly makes for an impressive Brian Baldinger endorsement. From the obscurity of being an NFL Europe analyst, Baldinger is now one of the best known NFL commentators on TV.
For more information about booking athletes and celebrities with the help of TSE Speakers, please fill our our detailed contact form or call us at (866) 520-7081 to speak with a dedicated TSE representative.

Officials in Spokane seek names for new foot bridge
SPOKANE, Wash. (AP) — Officials in Spokane are searching for a name for a new pedestrian bridge that is under construction in the city.
The soaring bridge would allow people to cross over railroad tracks that separate the university district from the East Sprague neighborhood.
The Spokesman-Review reports Monday that numerous people have offered suggestions for naming the new bridge.
Some of those include Children of the Sun Footway, the Mother Joseph Bridge, the University Bridge, Bell Curve Bridge and Achievement Bridge.
The bridge will span Martin Luther King Jr. Way, so someone suggested Equality Bridge.
Others suggested modern personalities such as Ryan Crocker, the former diplomat who was born in Spokane; novelist Jess Walter and Gonzaga basketball coach Mark Few.

September 26, 2010 (WASHINGTON) --President Barack Obama's top political adviser addressed the growing talk that Rahm Emanuel will leave the White House to run for mayor of Chicago.David Axelrod talked about it Sunday morning on ABC's This Week with Christianne Amanpour.
"So, it stands to reason that he would have to leave earlier if he decides to do it, and that's something he's still working through," Axelrod said.
"If you had to bet, will he do it? And will he leave before the midterms?"
"I never bet on national television," said Axelrod.
"What do you think will happen?" said Amanpour.
"I think that he loves the city of Chicago. He's always believed that that was the greatest job there is, and so I think he's drawn to it, but he still has family considerations to think about," Axelrod.
One person, for certain, will not be running for mayor. Former city inspector general David Hoffman says he will not seek Mayor Daley's job. Hoffman lost a close primary race for Senate to Alexi Giannoulias.

Post Edited (Honey Bee) : 12/28/2007 4:22:45 AM (GMT-7)
Dear Leave,
Constantly I question is this my husbands depression or is it him being a jerk. In the months I have been asking myself this question I have not found an answer. I try to emphasize to husband that this is not him it is the depression. He is treating, but not getting alot better. I picture us at the bottom of the well. We climb up a little, slip down abit, then crawl back toward the light. We are not at the bottom, but we are far from the light. I wonder if I will ever see the light.
There is a website that someone mentioned on this site. I find it helpful just reading the stories. It is primarily spouses of depressed people--depressionfallout.com. The answers vary from couple to couple. Some find a way to move forward others do not.
Wife of Depression
Now my husband does acknowledge he is depressed. It took a long time getting there. To make a long story short my husband basically spent from Labor Day 2006 until mid August 2007 in bed in a dark room. I convinced him in January 2007 he might be depressed, so he went to a psychiatrist who gave him so small a dose of lexapro it did nothing. It took months for me to realize that hubby was not telling psychiatrist that meds were not working. Switched doctors. I went with him to first appt and told dr, he will tell you all is well, please probe. The next appt hubby said he was ok--psychiatrist told him to bring me back as husband was being evasive. The stress of trying to hide my husbands illness and parent two teenagers (who are absolutely incredible) was too much. Finally in August after another day of broken promises that he would get up and did not I had it, told the kids to pack a bag we were going to my moms. They packed up and in 20 minutes we left. Considering that we had been married 22 years and I had never ever walked out it scared him and he went to the doctors with me--they admitted him into a day program at a psychiatric facility that was an hour away from our home-he wanted to stay anonymous. It was a waste of time. The kids and I moved home after a few weeks as I was tired of going between the two houses trying to keep all the balls up in the air. After he returned to work our life became horrific again. Come to find out husbands manager put him on probation the day he was released to go back to work partial duty--this set husband in to a tail spin. Of course husband did not tell me or his therapist that there was a problem at work until 6 weeks after he was put on probation and no one could understand why he was regressing. Husband and I started to work on the job issues, things were going OK. I left for an appt the monday after thanksgiving and came back to a husband who was in the beginnings of his first manic phase. Having no experience with this (husband is not bipolar, so this was new to me)I did not realize how our lives would spiral out of control over the next 4 days. Husband does not remember much about those days--I do. After he presented my with outrageous delusions I called our internist who wanted me to take him to the ER as soon as possible. Husband was adamant that he was ok and just was a bit tired even though he called his therapist 4 times between 2 and 4 am stating he was hopeless and despondent. At the direction of his therapist and psychiatrist I had to call the police twice and a mobile crisis unit. Even though his therapist told the police that husband was a danger to himself they would not take him for treatment--when the police or mobile crisis unit came he would get so scared that he would shape up when they arrived and appear very together. One of the officers asked if Hubby and I were having marital issues and there was nothing wrong with him, that it was me. Because husband was so upset the kids and I moved out--and we are not moving back any time soon, lesson learned from first outpatient stay. Luckily we have a number of close friends who are doctors. I called them and told them what I had been living for the last 18 months.After they got over the shock one friend called him, as the friend lives 8 hours away, and one friend came to our house.Then I called my husbands closest Christian friend who drove 4 hours to our home. Between the two doctor friends and our persuasive Christian friend--they were able to convince him that the psychiatric hospital was where he needed to go. The entire time they were intervening I was at my moms with the kids, the friends would call with periodic updates. They were able to get him admitted as an inpatient. Unfortunately our insurance refused to pay for the inpatient stay (he did not present as homicidal or suicidal)so he was released to a day program after 4 days. Without our friends I do not think husband would ever have gone for treatment. Husband called me every name in the book. It was absolutely horrible. The awful things he said about me to our friends, police and providers was extremely hurtful. He has apologized and I made him call all our friends to retract the statements he made about me to them.
While he was inpatient I found this website. Someone recommended the fallout book and website. From there I found another book--it was a godsend. It is called What to do when someone you love is depressed by Mitch Golant. It talks about being a strenghtening ally. It was from this book that I got the idea--which I should have done ages ago--to research the medication that was prescribed for my husband. He usually is diligent in researching his meds and doctors and he had seen three psychiatrists who all had him on this med so I fiqured they knew what they were doing. The med caused him to suffer from all kinds of side effects including manic episodes and ulcers, plus it was primarily an OCD drug which has benefits for depression. While husband is ocd, it is no big deal, the depression is a huge deal. I printed out all the info got out a highlighter and highlighted all the side effects. Then researched over 40 SSRI's to find out which one appeared to best address the issues husband was having. Read the studies for some new treatments. Printed this all out and told husband to take to psychiatrist at hospital. The doctor asked me to come to a session. He agreed with my research, discussed another study that I had not read, and agreed the med hubby was on was wrong and changed the medications. The new medications began on Christmas day. They are working! Anyway there is a chapter in the Golant book on how to address loved ones that do not recognize they are depressed. Also check the NAMI website there is an article about couples who have made it thru this roller coaster ride.
Please remember that as you go thru your day that you absolutely must do something for yourself. That can be finishing a project at work so you feel less overwhelmed, taking your baby girl out in the stroller for a quick walk around the block or to the library, or calling a friend to vent on the way home from work. Just something that lets you leave the problem for a bit. I concentrated on my kids. My 17 year old and 15 year old are so great--they are incredible in ever way. I tell them that they have to truly understand this disease so it does not eat away their lives. My 15 year old gets it. Daughter is struggling as she is upset that her daddy is gone and she does not trust him.
Hopefully she will remember how good life was when she had the Wellbutrin to help her thru her days and want that kind of life back.

Now is the time to start thinking about #GivingTuesday. An important part of the giving season, this particular day warrants your special attention, and taking steps now will be much less stressful than waiting until December.
Since launching in 2012, #GivingTuesday—the charitable counterpart to Black Friday and Cyber Monday—has grown into a national philanthropic movement. The participation of individuals, businesses, and entire communities has made the annual event a prime fundraising opportunity for social impact organizations, no matter their size or budget. Donors are eager to participate, and organizations should ride on this wave of energy to attract support.
In fact, the excitement around #GivingTuesday can be used as a launch pad for your greater fundraising efforts. Below is a breakdown of the opportunity that this national giving day offers, as well as a couple of ways you can build on the excitement to push your larger initiatives.
An Opportunity You Can't Pass Up
Over the last few years, #GivingTuesday has gained solid momentum and it shows no signs of stopping anytime soon. According to estimates by Indiana University's Lilly Family School of Philanthropy and the Case Foundation, #GivingTuesday raised $46 million in 2014, topping 2013's $28 million yield. The number of donations also increased by 53 percent. This jives with a similar finding by Blackbaud, whose transaction volume during the annual event hiked up 50 percent compared to 2013.
These numbers speak directly to the engagement and opportunity surrounding #GivingTuesday. Not only are more and more people paying attention to this dedicated day of giving, but they also tend to be generous with their gifts. According to Blackbaud's "#GivingTuesday Trends" report, the average online gift that small organizations received jumped from $100 in 2012 to $134 in 2014. On a broader level, nearly all organizations that received online donations during #GivingTuesday 2014 received an average online gift of 100 dollars.
The media attention surrounding #GivingTuesday continues to grow each year, raising awareness around social causes. Trends show that donors are willing to participate. It's just a matter of what your organization will do with the increased attention and engagement.
Leverage #GivingTuesday as a Stepping Stone for Bigger Initiatives
To take advantage of this national giving day, many organizations plan to launch an isolated campaign just for #GivingTuesday. While this approach will raise some funds, there are other ways to maximize the opportunity. One way, in particular, is to weave it into a bigger year-end fundraising strategy instead. Here are a couple of ways you can leverage the excitement around #GivingTuesday to push your larger initiatives.
1. Integrate it Into Your Holiday Fundraising Campaign
Instead of running separate #GivingTuesday and year-end fundraising campaigns, simply incorporate #GivingTuesday into your existing holiday fundraising efforts.
Many organizations launch their holiday fundraising campaign around Thanksgiving. With a campaign already in motion, use the media exposure that comes with #GivingTuesday to promote your campaign and encourage people to give to your organization. The revenue from the event can give you a big financial push towards your overall campaign goal.
If you haven't rolled out your year-end fundraising campaign by December 3rd, leverage the buzz around #GivingTuesday to officially launch your planned campaign. The excitement will contribute to a solid kickoff, building initial momentum for your campaign. People are more likely to give when they see your initiative shows progress, so gaining lots of traction on #GivingTuesday can set your campaign up for success in the following weeks.
In fact, you can prep for a successful #GivingTuesday hard launch by planning a soft launch in the weeks prior. This is when you recruit a few dedicated supporters to start raising money before your public kickoff on #GivingTuesday. Build momentum leading up to December 1st, and you can set the stage for a strong fundraising campaign.
Pro Tip: Many sponsors are willing to match gifts on #GivingTuesday, so try to find a corporate partner and host a donation matching period. This will excite donors and create a sense of urgency, which will help draw more donations to your campaign the day-of.
2. Promote Your Recurring Giving Campaign
#GivingTuesday presents a prime opportunity to not only acquire one-time gifts, but grow your number of monthly gifts and your organization's financial baseline.
Consider leveraging the giving day to push your monthly giving program. Growing your number of recurring donations can do wonders for your organization's long-term financial health. It can help you increase the amount people give on average each year, improve retention rates, and refine long-term planning and budgeting.
On December 1st, you can launch a recurring giving campaign to acquire new monthly donors. Your ask amount may be lower, but small monthly gifts add up to larger annual contributions and better retention rates. You can also target annual donors and ask them to join your monthly giving program, and ask monthly donors to increase their gift amount.
#GivingTuesday will be here before you know it. Plan now so you can capture the enthusiasm surrounding the event and boost your year-end fundraising initiatives. Capture the momentum of this one day to reap longer lasting benefits.

Tips for growing giant pumpkins include choosing a sunny spot, amending the soil, pruning the plant and controlling pests. Starting with a variety known to produce large pumpkins, such as Dills Atlantic Giant or Prizewinner Hybrid, is also essential.
The specific variety of pumpkin depends on the local growing zone. The variety should fall within the local zone and be known to produce large pumpkins. The local extension office for the area may have suggestions for local options.
The planting location and fertility of the soil affect how large the pumpkin grows. An ideal location receives lots of sunlight but has shelter from wind to protect sensitive pumpkin plants. Amending the soil by working in manure, compost or shredded leaves the fall before planting creates a fertile place to plant in the spring.
Starting pumpkin seeds indoors gives them a head start for transplant after all chances of frost pass. The plants are delicate and need careful handling when transplanted.
Regular care of the plants provides the best growing conditions. Removing weeds and controlling pests, insects and diseases allows the pumpkin to grow without competition. Several pumpkins may grow on a vine, but removing the extras and keeping only the best pumpkin allows the plant to put more energy into growing the remaining one. When the vine grows about 20 feet long, pinching off tips and side shoots helps focus the growing energy on the pumpkin.

Dear Marky and Addie,
Your old Gramps5 was mightily flattered that you wanted to know the story of how marketing took over the known universe. Frankly, I'm a little surprised I'm still here to tell it. Why, at the turn of the last century, Viagra was a newfangled invention. Who coulda thunk that Pfizer would eventually be able to extend my life, too?
Heh, heh, heh.
Now a lot of people think they know when the revolution began. Some say it started when Mayor Al Sharpton hired both a TV production studio and a giant PR agency to repair the image of the New York City Police Department, and their solution was to merge them all together into Hill, Street, Blues & Knowlton. (The series is still running.) The history books will tell you the big change began in 2008, when President-elect Winfrey, fresh from a victorious campaign waged entirely through her magazine, Web site, book club, cable network, movies and syndicated TV talk show, went down to the corner of Madison Avenue and 42nd Street and declared, "Ich bin ein marketer!"
But the revolution really began earlier. No, it wasn't the hostile takeover that created Young & Rubiclick. It wasn't the flood of Generation Z coming-of-age products (remember Teletubbies condoms?). It wasn't the Euro-American consumer-product wars that led U.S. Trade Representative Mickey Drexler to decry the Gap gap and send the Old Navy to bomb Petit Bateau and turn France into a Banana Republic. No, ol' Gramps5 can tell you categorically the triumph of marketing began during one of pre-modern society's darkest hours: the Great Crash of Y2K and the subsequent witch hunt for the dot-commieswho screwed up the economy.
You see, kids, once upon a time, people, smart people, thought there existed a thing called "competitive advantage." They believed -- and you'll have to forgive an aged man's reversion to the slang of his youth -- that "proprietary technology" combined with "first-mover supremacy" could create a "market lockout" by which one and only one company in a category would survive. This was during an era a lot of folks were calling "the New Economy," when none of the old rules were supposed to apply and the stock tables in The Wall Street Journal started sporting an ¥ symbol in the P-E column and fanatic disciples of the cult leader Bezosbub would empty their wallets into day trading accounts and sacrifice small animals to a goddess named Mary Meeker. It was a strange time, but it didn't seem strange to us.
The burning bush of the New Economy was a thing called Windows. Windows was what they called an operating system, which enabled what they called application programs to talk to what they called computers. At the time, computers were a really big thing -- so big they had to sit on your lap instead of being implanted in your cortex, fingertips and the walls of your house -- so getting them to talk to application programs was an important and lucrative business that was dominated by a company named Microsoft.
Now, not everything needed an operating system. Your food didn't need an operating system to talk to your microwave. I didn't need an operating system to talk to your Grandma5. But it didn't

I'm wrapping up a PhD in Practical Theology while in full-time ministry.
My field of Practical Theology is an inter-disciplinary approach which allows me to engage in a wide analysis of diverse subjects. These include the sociology of religion, postmodern thought, and critical race theory.
This blog is not primarily for my academic pursuits. The purpose here is to innovate theological concepts and engage new ideas.
The desire is to explore the Christian tradition while engaging contemporary thought – and to integrate them where possible.
This is done in the hopes of giving the church an authentic witness in the midst of a pluralistic society.
I love this conversation and am grateful for all the support and encouragement.

A page copied from an old Buck rogers novel and passed around among scientists here captures the atmosphere that pervades the headquarters of the Voyager Saturn mission.
"The spectacle was beautiful and awe- inspiring to behold," it reads, "one of the strangest to be seen in the entire solar system. 'To think that no other person from Earth has ever seen Saturn and its rings so close! . . .' Wilma said. 'I wonder what Titan will be like.' 'Well . . .,' Buck replied, 'It won't be long now.'"
With the "awe-inspiring" spectacle of Saturn's rings growing ever larger on the ubiquitous TV monitors and with the scientists speculating excitedly as to the nature of the great moon Titan, those words written decades go seem prophetic. Fiction has become a reality. A spaceship from Earth has entered the Saturn system. But, in this case, hundreds of millions of people back on earth are sharing the wonder of its discoveries with the mission team at the NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory here.
Looking forward to Wednesday, when Voyager I will pass within 4,100 kilometers (2,500 miles) of Titan's cloud tops, Dr. Edward C. Stone of the California Institute of Technology explained some of the puzzles he hopes will be cleared up. Titan has an atmosphere rich in methane. Estimates of its thickness are very uncertain. The surface pressure may be anywhere from 2 percent to 200 percent of that of the atmosphere on Earth.
Surface temperature also isn't certain. Measurements of infrared (heat) radiation made by the Pioneer Saturn spacecraft some 14 months ago indicate a temperature of minus 198 degress Celsius with an uncertainty of three degrees. It is unclear whether this represents the surface or some intermediate level of the atmosphere. Measurements by Earth-based radiotelescopes suggest a surface temperature of minus 186 degrees c. with an uncertainty of 9 degrees.
Pioneer Saturn measured the radius of Titan including its atmosphere as 2,880 kilometers in red light and at 2,895 kilometers in blue light, with an uncertainty of 22 kilometers. However, since no one knows how thick the atmosphere is, they don't know the size of the underlying solid. Measurements by Earth-based radiotelescopes suggest 2,400 kilometers with an uncertainty of 250 kilometers.
If the actual radius of the solid body is 2,200 kilometers, then the moon has an average density three times that of water and may be like Jupiter's rocky Europa, Dr. Stone said. If the radius is 2,600 kilometers, then the density would be 1.8 like the icy Jovian satellite Ganymede. That is a substantial uncertainty to be cleared up.
Likewise, Titan's surface is a matter of speculation. With a thin atmosphere it may be covered with liquid methane. If the atmosphere is thick, there might be liquid nitrogen.
Then there are tantalizing hints of some kind of organic chemistry driven by sunlight, Stone noted. Ethane, acetylene, and ethylene have already been identified in Titan's atmosphere. Are there other organic identified in Titan's atmosphere. Are there other organic chemicals being formed? Are they precipitating out on the surface? Specifically, are prebiotic chemicals -- precursors of organic life -- forming and collecting there? Does Titan provide clues to how chemicals have formed in some meteorites?
Stone said, hopefully, that Voyager will answer many such questions. It should measure Titan's surface temperature directly and may give a profile of the temperature throughout the height of the atmosphere. Its infrared sensors should also be able to look at the photochemistry that may be going on. Radio data will reveal other characteristics of the atmosphere, including density variations with height. And most importantly, they will give an accurate measurement of Titan's diameter and determine once and for all what kind of a body it is, Stone said.
Meanwhile, Saturn itself continues to reveal intriguing details. A red spot, first noticed in August, now can be seen clearly at 55 degrees south latitude and has been joined by a comparable red spot at roughly the same position in the comparable red spot at roughtly the same position in the northern hemisphere. They measure on the other of 12,000 kilometers across with an uncertainty of 1, 000 km. Thus they are smaller than Jupiter's famous red spot and about the size of the white ovals seen on that planet. These are believed to be great storms. Drawing this analogy, Bradford A. Smith of the University of Arizona said we may be seeing the top of a convective cell with material welling up from below and diverging outward on top. The force of Saturn's rotation would cause a spiraling motion.
The banded structure of Saturn's atmosphere also is becoming clearer and subtle effects are beginning to appear. The southern hemisphere, for example, seems a little brighter than the northern, with the change in brightness occurring more or less along the equator. Smight pointed out that these are very subtle features. It takes considerable computer enhancement of the image contrasts to see them at all. Trying to figure out what they imply for Saturn's "weather" must await clearer views.
However, it is the spectacular ring system that has become the central puzzle. The old theory that nearly accounted for the forces that shaped the rings as they used to be known has been shattered. With only three of four rings as seen from Earth to consider, it seemed sensible to think that some of Saturn's 9 or 10 moons then-known were stabilizing the rings by gravitiational interaction with the ring's particles. These are believed to be small bodies a few centimeters to a few meters in size.
Now Voyager is showing something like 100 ringlets within the main rings, with more structure showing up all the time. Moreover, small moons on the order of 100 kilometers in diameter keep showing up. Several have been found since the Pioneer Saturn mission. The latest was announced Nov. 8, bringing the number to 15.
Sometimes intimately associated with the ring material, these small moons may help control ring structure. For example, two small moons orbit on either side of the "F" ring -- a ring just beyond the "A" ring, which is the outermost of the main rings seen from Earth. Like dogs herding sheep, they may constrain the F ring particles to orbit where they do, Smith said. Likewise, the newly found 15th moon orbits at the outer edge of the A ring, about 136,000 kilometers from the center of Saturn. It may be "herding" the A-ring particles.
Smith said he wouldn't be surprised by another moon at the A ring's inner edge. Indeed, many moons may turn up within the ring system.
While this "sheep dog" concept is intriguing, it doesn't begin to explain how the rings form and how they are maintained, or, indeed, where the moons themselves come from.

Three Game of Thrones TV Show Teaser Trailers have premiered. HBO's first two Game of Thrones TV show teaser trailers – who's pilot episode was directed by Thomas McCarthy and written by D.B. Weiss and Danid Benioff – are pretty spartan, which is why we did not post them previously. With the release of the third and longest TV show teaser trailer for Game of Thrones, it was time to show all three. We posted the Game of Thrones: Entertainment Weekly November 2010 Photos previously. HBO's George R. R. Martin adaption follows "the fight for the throne of King Robert Baratheon (Mark Addy), who rules over the land of Westeros with the help of Lord Eddard Stark (Sean Bean), while behind castle walls intrigue brews in the form of attempted murders, more than one incestuous liaison — and the dark backstory of Stark's bastard son, Jon Snow (Kit Harington). Lena Heady plays Queen Cersei Baratheon, Nikolaj Coster-Waldau is Jamie Lannister and Peter Dinklage is Tyrion Lannister." All three Game of Thrones TV show teaser trailers are below. Watch and leave your thoughts on them.

text: First off, thanks to everyone who reads and provides advice. I am looking to buy a camera/camcorder to use with iMovie '11 to create family DVD's of both still pictures and videos. I am very busy with work and don't have a lot of time for complicated programs, conversions, etc. I will be taking photos of still shots as well as some sports/action pictures and will be filming 5-10 minute sports clips and 20-30 minutes plays/performances. As you can tell, I am not looking to make HBO quality programming; however, I would like the DVD's to be of decent quality. Should I try to purchase/use a separate camera and camcorder or is a good quality DSLR camera capable of providing both the still photos and the video? I would like to stay in the $500-$600 range (less is better obviously) for either both a camera and camcorder or one DSLR that can do both. Any suggestions? Anything else I am not thinking of? Thanks.

AMD Phenom II X4 955 AM3 CPU Review
Overall, the AMD Phenom II X4 955 is a step in the right direction. During the majority of the scientific tests - which measure the CPU generally more than the rest of the system components - the Phenom II 955 outperformed the previous top AMD processor, the Phenom II X4 940, as well as the Intel Q9450 in most of the tests. While still not as fast as the Intel Core i7 920 processor, the Phenom II X4 955 is a well put together CPU that allows fast computing using the latest components on the market. Supporting both DDR2 and DDR3 based platforms, the Phenom II 955 gives you the flexibility to upgrade at your pace while having cutting edge components. Even in the video benchmarks, the Phenom II 955 gave a few frames per second increase over the Phenom II 940, which can mean the world with the resolutions of current monitors and the crisp 3D graphics that we all crave.
On the overclocking front, which OCC is all about, the Phenom II X4 955 lagged behind the Phenom II 940. No matter how much voltage I gave it, or how many adjustments I made, the CPU just did not want to budge. I attempted to suicide the voltage, and still the stability would not set in. With the Phenom II 940, I was able to get almost a 1GHz increase on air alone; however, with the Phenom II 955, the system would lock up with anything over 18.5x205Mhz. Since the Phenom II 955 is clocked higher than the Phenom II 940, it still has good overall speed when overclocked to almost 3.8GHz at 1.5 volts. With an expected release price of $245, the Phenom II 955 is still below the more expensive Core i7 920, and when you take into account the average price of a 790FX AM3 motherboard is $149, you can have a nice base for around $400 - versus the $500+ for an Intel Core i7 920 processor and X58 motherboard. And, you can still just purchase the Phenom II 955 and run it in your current AM2+ system for even less of an upgrade cost.
- Compatible with AM2+ and AM3 motherboards
- Can use DDR2 or DDR3 memory based on motherboard
- Inexpensive upgrade path with compatibility
- Fast stock clock speed of 3.2GHz
- Faster than the mainstream Q9450 in most tests
- Limited overclocking headroom

I have set /usr/sbin/askpass as a GUI helper when a password is needed by sudo. These are some entries that I have put into /etc/sudoers:
# Defaults specification
Defaults env_reset
Defaults env_keep="HOME PATH DISPLAY HOSTNAME LANG"
Defaults editor=/usr/bin/mp
Defaults:ALL askpass=/usr/sbin/askpass
'askpass' is a little script that I knocked up using gtkdialog. It asks for the administrator (root) password, which gets returned on stdout.
I think that sudo has to be invoked with the '-A' option for askpass to work, for example:
# sudo -A pmount
...theoretically, haven't tried it yet!
Commentssudo won't accept password
Username: BarryK
Hmmm, got a problem. Testing running fido, sudo will not accept the root password, says it's wrong. However, 'su' accepts it. 'su' is a Busybox applet, and Busybox has its own internal password handling code, whereas probably sudo is using glibc. There is some kind of mismatch here.

"Barry, here is what I have got so far... # sudo pmount Password: You gotta go owwwww! Password: It's only your word against mine. Password: Wrong! You cheating scum! sudo: 3 incorrect password attempts # # # sudo pmount Password: My pet ferret can type better than you! Password: BOB says: You seem to have forgotten your passwd, enter another! Password: You speak an infinite deal of nothing sudo: 3 incorrect password attempts # hehe, and another # su spot # mount -t ext2 /dev/sda2 /mnt/sda2 mount: only root can do that # sudo mount -t ext2 /dev/sda2 /mnt/sda2 Password: The more you drive -- the dumber you get. Password: It can only be attributed to human error. Password: You silly, twisted boy you. sudo: 3 incorrect password attempts # Silly me, my askpass: [code]#!/bin/sh echo "password: " read -s echo $REPLY[/code] I am sure it is not working. But anyhow a funny thing

Sudo doesn't work
Username: BarryK
"Dougal, Gksu has a lot of Gnome dependencies. Last night I recompiled sudo, as I thought maybe the absence of PAM could be upsetting password recognition. I configured with '--without-pam', and re-uploaded the PETs. Unfortunately, sudo will not recognize the root password still. I tried with telling 'chpasswd' to generate DES and MD5 encrypted passwords, neither work. I tried with the chpasswd from the 'shadow' package instead of busybox, still no-go. It is a mystery, how can sudo be so dumb? /etc/shadow is right there. This is my configure options: [i]./configure --prefix=/usr --bindir=/usr/bin --sbindir=/usr/sbin --libdir=/usr/lib --datadir=/usr/share --includedir=/usr/include --infodir=/usr/info --mandir=/usr/man --sysconfdir=/etc --localstatedir=/var --disable-debug --enable-log-host --disable-pam-session --build=i486-t2-linux-gnu --with-nsswitch=no --with-netsvc=no --without-pam --without-sendmail --without-lecture[/i] Well 1.7.2 is not the latest sudo, it is the version used when I compiled in T2. I will now try the latest. And, maybe try a very old version.

"I suppose it's not looking for it in shadow rather than passwd and shadow has not been updated correctly? latest stable sudo=181p1, there are an awfull lot of fixes after 172, even maintenance minimum is 176p1 also sudo requires a valid shell to be in the password database, su defines it's shell requirement. Not missing or wrong (permissions, etc), is it? just a thought

":cry: :happy: So many times I have recompiled sudo, tried different versions. Then I was reading a link posted by scottman: http://bkhome.org/archive/blog2/201105/sudo-172.html Extract from link: [i]Once again nothing obvious showed up. At this point I started Googling to try and find the answer. There was a lot of articles about people trying the root password rather than the user password, but I wasn't doing that.[/i] The thing is, 'fido' does not have a password, so sudo should just accept the ENTER key, but it doesn't. Because that did not work, nor the root password, I was stumped. However, after reading the above, I used 'chpasswd' to give fido a password, and voila, it works! Now, if I just put this at the beginning of a script, for example in /usr/sbin/pmount: [i][ "`whoami`" != "root" ] && exec -A ${0} ${@}[/i] ...pmount works like a charm. The -A option causes my askpass GUI to run. Can anyone think of any reason why this solution at the beginning of certain scripts is not a good idea?

Puppy babushka-doll nests?
Username: CLAM01
"I would like to suggest that setting up sudo in puppy is purposeless, not even 'gilding the lily', because it is more akin to 'bleaching the lily', adding no gold, only an artificial aroma. For appropriate disclaimer, I am not a sudo fan. On single-install multi-user systems I use root log-on only to access core programming, never going from a user account. I have never run a ubunto because I don't like its sudo administration system. In puppies one does not run as root, even when 'running as root', because real root in puppy is locked in the primary sfs file. In a puppy as root one is pseudo-root. To log in to a puppy as real root and adjust a puppy's core programming one must run the 'remaster' program. Remastering a puppy one makes a new puppy root primary.sfs. Modifying one's running puppy, adding pets and access to sfs applications, one modifies his personal user environment. The root sfs remains unchanged. If a user screws up a puppy, even beyond what a pfix=clean or purge restart can repair, it is still only the user's personal account that is screwed up. The root system primary sfs remains unchanged. So the user can restart pfix=ram, open-mount his wrecked user-save personal account file, delete what he wrecked, if he knows, or everything, then click-unmount and reboot. The mastered puppy sfs is root and builds a new puppy 'user account' to its mastered spec. I agree with pizzagood about options. I also like browsing as user-spot. A puppy install is a 'sandbox; it can absorb whatever lands. a browser in user-spot adds a "liner" to the puppy sand-box. The liner can catch whatever comes in, leaving the 'user-account' clean and easy to routinely clean: Just lift out the user-spot 'liner', toss, reinstall a clean spot. Browser settings set in root are still set and needn't be reset.

Pecos-Barstow-Toyah school officials have worked out an agreement on the installation of artificial turf at Eagle Stadium that should bring in the cost of the project below budget, superintendent Don Love said today.
FieldTurf came in as the lowest bidder last month, when the project to put artificial turf in the stadium and to resurface the track at the high school field was rebidded by the P-B-T school board. The second bids were taken after the company that won the original bid, ProGreen of Louisiana, was unable to get bonded in Texas.
Love said after talking with company officials, the district was able to lower the cost of the combined field and track work by just under $10,000, to $517,000.
"We don't have a final contract yet, but we do have a signed agreement," Love said. He said the district's architect will be in Pecos on Thursday and may have a final contract too sign at that time.
Of the $517,000 total, $490,000 will be for installation of the field, and $27,000 for latex resurfacing of the track. "They'll put two layers of rubber on it. It will be just like it was when we built it," Love said.
"The good thing about it is when we were considering doing this we were looking at $530,000, and this $517,000 includes a $25,000 contingency fee for the field and $2,500 for the turf," Love said. The contingency fees are for unexpected costs. If they aren't used, the cost of the project would come in at $489,500.
The school district last fall looked at putting artificial turf on the high school football, baseball and softball fields, but school board members balked at the combined $2.1 million cost, and in January voted to only replace the grass at Eagle Stadium. Love said the turf would carry an eight-year warranty and would cover all the areas at the stadium where grass currently is located.
Montreal, Canada-based FieldTurf installed one field at a similar-sized West Texas school last year, in Denver City. Their first installation in Texas was at Amarillo's Dick Bivins Stadium in 1998. Pecos' football team played on FieldTurf once during the 2003 season, against Lubbock High at Lowery Field.
"We're going with the best company there is," said Pecos Eagles head football coach Patrick Willis. "I truly believe there won't be a better high school field in the area. There will be some little additional features that will be nice and something that the community and the kids can be proud of."
"We'll have a 6-foot out-of-bounds line and purple end zones with 'Pecos' in one end and 'Eagles' in the other," Love said. A 10-year wide Eagle logo, painted onto the field for certain games during the past two seasons, would be permanently painted onto the new field, he added.
FieldTurf's website lists a number of college and professional football teams that have installed turf in their stadiums or practice field. Teams playing on the turf in the NFL include the Atlanta Falcons, Kansas City Chiefs, Cleveland Browns, Detroit Lions and both New York teams at Giants Stadium. Nebraska and Kansas State in the Big 12 also play on FieldTurf.
The original time schedule for installation called for work to begin at the start of April and be completed by mid-May. The new schedule will cut things much closer, with the completion date for both the field and track scheduled for Aug. 15, according to Love. Preseason football workouts for Pecos will begin on Aug. 3, and the Eagles will scrimmage Coahoma at home the weekend of Aug. 21.
"We'll go (practice) at the junior high, just like we did last year," Willis said of the pre-season drills in early August. "We want to try and stay off the baseball field forever."
Both the varsity and junior varsity teams will practice at Eagle Stadium once the turf is installed. The freshman football team will work out on the section of the old practice field not taken up for the new girls' softball field, and Willis said, "When we need to do sled work, we'll go over there."
One other concern during the early part of the season will be the Pecos' summer temperatures. The city traditionally is one of the hottest in the nation during the summer months, and artificial turf fields reflect heat back up more than natural grass surfaces.
"We didn't have any heat-related problems last year, and with two-a-days I'm looking at early morning and then evening practices," Willis said. He added that trainer Joel Birch is looking at a new hydration machine for the players to use to avoid heat-related problems.
Love said aside from talking about the new field with architect Monte Hunter on Thursday, he would also bee getting an update on the new gym for Austin Elementary School. Dirt work has been started on the east side of the first through third grade school, whose students currently have no indoor recreational facility.
"Right now I meet every two weeks with the group. Once they start erecting something, we'll meet once a week," Love said. The gym is also scheduled to be competed in time for the 2004-05 school year.
Two days of games and drills with "Mr. Sunshine" will be offered to local students on Wednesday and Thursday this week at the Pecos High School tennis courts.
Youth classes will include games and basic stroke production, while advanced stroke instruction will be available for intermediate students and more intensive workouts and strategy instruction for high school and adult players.
The classes will be 5 to 6 p.m. both days for 6-11 year olds, 6-7 p.m. for 12-14 year olds and 7-8:30 p.m. for high school and adult players. The classes are limited to 20 youth, 12 intermediate and 10 advanced players with fees of $5 per day or $7.50 for both days for the youth class, $8-$12 for the intermediate class and $10-$18 for the high school/adult class.
Students also will participate in tennis-related events today and Thursday. Austin Elementary students were scheduled to participate this morning and afternoon, while Pecos Kindergarten and Bessie Haynes Elementary students would be involved during sessions on Thursday morning and afternoon.

text: The big news today was that not just one but several robots completed the DARPA Grand Challenge. Many Robonexus attendees were making regular visits to the CMU booth where they had a live feed of the competition status. One disapointment today was the cancellation of Phillip Torrone's talk when he missed his flight. Lots of MAKE fans were looking forward to it. A number of people noted that the MAKE folks have gained a reputation for missing speaking engagements. Best talk today was probably Joanne Pransky's on the Frankenstein Complex. Instead of one more talk about the best batteries or motors, she brought up some of the big questions of robotics; free will, consciousness, emotions, and rights. The day ended with all the coolest folks hanging out at the Servo mixer. I've uploaded another batch of new photos to the gallery.


text: The European Commission published the first official draft of the UCITS V level 2 Regulation. The UCITS V level 2 regulation will implement UCITS V which will come into force on 18 March 2016. The draft Regulation sets out more detailed requirements on the UCITS V amendments affecting depositaries. Regulators, UCITS managers and depositaries have been waiting for this Regulation so as to understand how the detailed requirements can be implemented into relevant processes and procedures within the tight timescales envisaged. The current draft provides that the Regulation shall apply from a date which is six months after it comes into force (although this is still draft and so liable to change). The delegated regulation is now be subject to scrutiny by co-legislators prior to publication in the Official Journal and will come into force 20 days after that date.
