The Fourth Ecumenical Council. The Council of Chalcedon.: Canon XXII
Canon XXII.
It is not lawful for clergymen, after the death of their bishop, to seize what belongs to him, as has been forbidden also by the ancient canons; and those who do so shall be in danger of degradation from their own rank.
Ancient Epitome of Canon XXII.
Whoever seizes the goods of his deceased bishop shall be cast forth from his rank.
It is curious that the Greek text which Zonaras and Balsamon produce, and which Hervetus translated, had instead of τοῖς πάλαι κανόσι, τοις παραλαμβάνουσιν . Van Espen thinks that the Greek commentators have tried without success to attach any meaning to these words, accepting the arguments of Bp. Beveridge (which see). The reading adopted in the text does not lack ms. authority, and is the one printed by Justellus in his "Codex of the Canons of the Universal Church."
This canon is found in the Corpus Juris Canonici, Gratians Decretum, Pars II., Causa XII., Quæst. II., canon xliii., in Isidores version.

Spring Shakespeare: King Lear
Check HERE for up-to -the-minute LEAR WEATHER FORECAST INFORMATION regarding any possible rain-related issues concerning the next performance of King Lear. Updated hourly on performance dates!!
Dearest Patrons of King Lear, we are SO EXCITED to present this outdoor performance of Lear! If, however, it should rain (see weather-related link below) we will STILL PERFORM THE PLAY RAIN OR SHINE! IF it's wet, we'll all just meet in the Studio Theatre and have an intense and beautiful INDOOR production. With a show so nice, you should come twice: Rain AND Shine!. See you soon!!
Gunn Theatre, nothing if not audacious, is taking on what many have called the Mount Everest of Shakespeare's plays, KING LEAR! It will be performed OUTDOORS on the N-building's Grand Staircase, behind Spangenberg, March 15, 16, 17, 22, 23, 24, at 7:00pm SHARP! The Opening Night Gala begins at 5:30, March 15th (the ides of March…), in the Gunn faculty lounge.

Come prepared for nighttime chills: Bring blankets, pads, beach chairs (if you want to sit down in front), and plenty of jackets! Warm food and drinks will be available throughout the shows.
King Lear is a play both dark and desperate, but also one of Shakespeare's most beloved works. A wrenching story of love, loss, endurance and reconciliation, King Lear has fascinated audiences for more than 400 years. An aging monarch obscured by the shadows of dementia resolves to retire and divides his kingdom among his three daughters. The unexpected consequence of losing everything that defines him is shattering—a reminder that even the most powerful among us can be undone.
This magnificent community celebration of language, music, light and performance is an event you won't want to miss!

Mayor refutes teachers union attack ads on YouTube
Mayor Michael Nutter took to YouTube to respond to Philadelphia Federation of Teachers attack ads claiming he's not doing enough to fund Philly schools.
Mayor Michael Nutter's administration on Wednesday hit back at the Philadelphia Federation of Teachers' recent television ad campaign, which accuses Nutter of conspiring with Gov. Tom Corbett to underfund city schools.
Nutter's response came in a series of five videos posted on YouTube yesterday by the city of Philadelphia.
In one video, titled "TRUTH (Phila. Education Funding)," Nutter declares, "The PFT leadership is running false ads distorting my record on education funding and my support for our children.
"They failed to tell you that, as mayor, I've increased education funding by $155 million annually in the last few years while the state has cut funding by $140 million."
He goes on to outline several unrealized proposals he's brought to the table that ostensibly would have brought in even more money for schools, including his infamous attempt to tax soda, as well as a $2-per-pack cigarette tax and a 15 percent hike in the liquor-by-the-drink tax.
He also points out, "even right now, I'm supporting getting hundreds of millions more in recurring revenue from the state sales tax extension."
The City Council has shown some resistance to the language of the legislation extending the state sales tax, originally set to end this year.
Though the cigarette tax was approved by City Council last spring, it has so far stalled in the state General Assembly.
Nutter goes on to point out PFT leadership did not support any of those legislative packages.
"Well, they get an F in telling the truth," he concludes."We teach our students to tell the truth. Maybe the PFT leaders should learn something from our kids."
In a second video titled, "Education Funding and our Children," Nutter again defends his record and calls on other legislative bodies to step up for school funding.
"I've made the right choices for our kids," he says.
"But let's talk about choices. City Council: Make a choice. Pass the sales tax. State General Assembly: Make a choice. Pass the cigarette tax. And Gov. Corbett: Make a choice. Create a new statewide funding formula to fund our schools properly."
In a third video,"Choices," Nutter toes the same line, saying, "Let's stop shortchanging our children with one-time funding schemes. We need long-term sustainable funding for education like the sales tax."
The videos came despite the PFT's agreement Wednesday to stop running their attack ads, as president Jerry Jordan is reportedly set to meet with Nutter later this week to continue negotiating the union's contract, which expired last week.
"The mayor's assertion that the PFT's leadership has failed to fight for additional education funding is absolutely false," Jordan said in a statement responding to Nutter's videos.
"The PFT has been on the record with its avid support for a sustainable funding formula and other revenue streams for Philadelphia's public schools.
"It is the job of our elected officials, not educators, to create budgets, pass laws and develop legislation designed to properly fund our schools. This is the reason Philadelphia's citizens – including PFT members – vote.
"We are happy to see the mayor demonstrate a newfound zeal to pressure Harrisburg for additional education funding. We hope in the future he'll fight alongside Philadelphia's teachers and school employees rather than fighting against us."
Philadelphia public schools are scheduled to open Monday.

Mites in Guinea Pigs
Mites are small insect parasites that can cause serious skin problems for your guinea pig. The two common guinea pig fur mites are Trixacarus caviae (sarcoptic mange mite) and Chirodiscoides caviae.
Your guinea pig may acquire these fur mites from other infested guinea pigs he/she may come in contact with at the breeder's facility, pet store, shelter or previously contaminated bedding.
"Mites are reasonably easy to treat on your guinea pig, but they can be quite serious if left untreated."
What kinds of problems can mites cause in my guinea pig?
Mites can affect a guinea pig of any age and sex, and at the early infestation stage, your guinea pig may not show any signs or symptoms. Your pet may or may not be itchy. It all depends on the type of mite and if he/she is hypersensitive to mite bites. Here's why it depends on the type of mite.
Chirodiscoides caviae may show mild to no clinical signs at all, and are generally not life threatening.
Trixacarus caviae (sarcoptic mange mite) can be very severe because they cause extreme itchiness. They're so itchy that your guinea pig may become traumatized and even go into seizures. A guinea pig infested with sarcoptic mange mites can even die.
"A guinea pig infested with sarcoptic mange mites can even die, so it's important to see your veterinarian if you notice constant itchiness and scratching."
With sarcoptic mange mite, the following conditions may occur:
• The affected skin will get thick, perhaps yellowish and crusty
• Your guinea pig will lose hair in the infested area
• A secondary bacterial skin infection is commonly found
• In time, weight loss is common, and the pet becomes debilitated, lethargic and depressed
How does my veterinarian diagnose mites in a guinea pig?
Your veterinarian should examine your guinea pig regularly (at least once a year) to identify mites as early as possible and provide treatment.
• First, your veterinarian will examine your pet's fur and skin for evidence of mites and other external parasites.
• Cultures for bacteria and fungus may be done as well.
• And, your veterinarian may run diagnostic tests to make sure there aren't other diseases or problems causing the itching and scratching.
How does my veterinarian treat a guinea pig with mites?
If the guinea pig is badly debilitated, your veterinarian may suggest hospitalization to build up the animal's strength.
In addition, there are no specific drugs for managing mites in guinea pigs, so it's likely your veterinarian will suggest an "off-label" use of products designed for dogs and cats. These may include topical cat medications such as Advantage™ or Revolution™. They appear to be safe but should ONLY be used under the guidance of a veterinarian familiar with guinea pigs.
Your veterinarian may also recommend topical flea powders, premise sprays or even professional pest exterminators. Before considering any of these treatment, be sure to ask your veterinarian about using them safely.
Since adult mites can live off the guinea pig in carpets, bedding and other fabrics for short periods of time, be sure to clean and treat your home and other areas where the animal resides, plays and visits — since mite eggs or adults may have fallen off the animal in those areas. This treatment must be long enough to get the adult from the last mite egg that hatches.
Certain products should never be used on guinea pigs. DO NOT use mite collars on guinea pigs. DO NOT use organophosphates, straight permethrin sprays or permethrin spot-ons on your pet guinea pig.
"For safety's sake, always consult with a veterinarian familiar with guinea pigs and fur mites before using any topical and environmental treatments!"
Should I be concerned about mites affecting my family?
Guinea pig mites do not like living on people, so it shouldn't be a problem even if your guinea pig becomes infested. If someone in your family is sensitive to mites, he/she may develop a mild and likely temporary dermatitis (skin infection). If you're ever concerned, talk with your family doctor.

Shafilea's parents jailed for 25 years for her murder
Iftikhar and Faranza Ahmed have been jailed for life after being found guilty of the murder of their daughter, Shafilea.Read the full story ›
Pictures: Shafilea Ahmed's parents leave court
Iftikhar and Farzana Ahmed have been sentenced to life with a minimum of 25 years for killing their daughter. The judge, Mr Justice Roderick Evans, said they had killed her for "cultural reasons" and they it had been "as fundamental breach of trust as can be imagined".
Shafilea's parents, prime suspects, protesting their innocence
In 2004, although Shafilea's parents were the prime suspects, they protested their innocence. Speaking at the time to ITV News, they objected to the way police handled their case.
Courage of Shafilea's younger sister helped bring parents to justice
Alesha Ahmed, Shafilea's younger sister, found the courage to tell the truth about her sister's death. It meant Cheshire Police could fully understand the terrible sequence of events which took place in the family home. Police said it was a "vile and disgraceful act".
Shafilea Ahmed 'a simple case' of murder
DSI Geraint Jones of Cheshire Police said: "For me this is a simple case of murder. Domestic abuse by two parents.
There is always a trigger. In the case of Shafilea the abuse she suffered is motivated by her parents desire to control her to make her conform to their interpretation of Pakistani culture."
Shafilea Ahmed 'squeezed between two cultures'
What was it that brought you two, her parents, the people who had given her life, to the point of killing her? You chose to bring up your family in Warrington but although you lived in Warrington your social and cultural attitudes were those of rural Pakistan and it was those which you imposed upon your children. Shafilea was a determined, able and ambitious girl who wanted to live a life which was normal in the country and in the town in which you had chosen to live and bring up your children.
However, you could not tolerate the life that Shafilea wanted to live. You wanted your family to live in Pakistan in Warrington. Although she went to local schools, you objected to her socialising with girls from what has been referred to as the white community. You objected to her wearing western clothes and you objected to her having contact with boys. She was being squeezed between two cultures, the culture and way of life that she saw around her and wanted to embrace, and the culture and way of life you wanted to impose on her.
- Juliet Bremner: ITV News Correspondent
Iftikhar and Farzana Ahmed killed for 'cultural reasons'
Iftikhar and Farzana Ahmed have been sentenced to life with a minimum of 25 years for killing their daughter. The judge, Mr Justice Roderick Evans, said they had killed her for "cultural reasons" and they it had been "as fundamental breach of trust as can be imagined".
Shafilea's parents jailed for life
Iftikhar and Faranza Ahmed have been jailed for life - with a minimum term of 25 years - after being found guilty of the murder of their daughter, Shafilea.
Iftikhar Ahmed's first wife: He embraced Western life
ITV News tracked down Iftikhar Ahmed's first wife, Vivi Andersen, in Copenhagen. She married Iftikhar when she was 21 and they had a baby together.
Speaking to Juliet Bremner she said Iftikhar embraced Western life. He used to go 'to the disco, drink beers' but then secretly married his cousin.
Shafilea Ahmed case 'sends out strong message' over honour killing
Justice has finally been done. It's taken a long time for this case to be resolved so we pay tribute to the police and the courts. The strong message goes out and should be very clear: if you engage in honour killings, if you engage in forced marriages, you will be caught and brought to justice. Honour killings go against Islam. Islam totally forbids honour killings, it forbids forced marriages and if anybody thinks somehow that they are doing these actions as a result of their faith, then they are seriously misguided.
I have spoken to a lot of Muslim scholars and it's very clear that these people should not be behaving in this way. We should not be forcing our sons and daughters to marry people. As a parent, I cannot begin to think and comprehend how a parent would go about and kill their children. I just can't comprehend that and only these two people will be able to say why they did what they did. It's wrong. It's morally wrong.

FDA's Proposed Mercury Fish Advice Based on Flawed Science, Say MD and Anti-Mercury Advocates
Source of Article: http://www.marketwatch.com/news/story/FDAs-Proposed-Mercury-Fish-Advice/story.aspx?guid=%7BBA4FD6FC-ABBA-4AF1-8436-813FAE6A748D%7D
Last update: 9:47 a.m. EST Dec. 15, 2008
WASHINGTON, Dec 15, 2008 /PRNewswire-USNewswire via COMTEX/ -- Today, a parent of a mercury-poisoning victim joined a medical doctor and an advocacy group in refuting the FDA's proposal to stop warning pregnant women and children about exposure risks from mercury in fish.
"We've known for years that mercury is toxic to the brain and other organs in varying amounts depending on the individual's status. For FDA to suddenly change the equation to say that benefits outweigh risks is like once again declaring the earth is flat after discovering it was round," concluded Jane M. Hightower, M.D., an internal medicine physician in San Francisco, CA, who published a landmark study that brought the issue of mercury in seafood to national attention. "Simply stated, FDA's proposed recommendation to eat more fish is likely based on flawed science."
In 2004, the FDA joined the EPA in releasing advice to restrict the species and amounts of fish eaten by pregnant women and children due to exposure risks to mercury. On Friday, in a draft report submitted to the White House, the FDA proposed to not only rescind that advice, but recommend that sensitive populations eat more mercury-contaminated fish.
"Talk about getting hooked on fish stories," said Michael Bender, Director of the Mercury Policy Project. "FDA has really gone overboard this time by casting out the science and reeling in the industry 'line' instead," Bender said, referring to an industry report released prior to the FDA report that reached strikingly similar conclusions.
Exposure and toxic effects in adults and children are well-documented. Dr. Hightower's new book, Diagnosis: Mercury: Money, Politics and Poison, catalogues her patients' mercury poisoning case histories.
"Patients in my private medical practice, as well as at other doctor's offices around the country, have been diagnosed with mercury toxicity from eating too much fish. Ignoring the presence of a known neurotoxin in one's diet is simply asking for trouble," said Dr. Hightower.
"To say there's nothing to worry about simply ignores reality," said Stephanie Simmons. "My daughter's reactions to additional mercury in her system from one meal of fish are testimony to that. Before being diagnosed and treated, her symptoms were dramatic, but now, subtler and longer-lasting after-effects still remain."
Simmons's story about her daughter is not an isolated case. Diagnosis of low-dose mercury poisoning from fish consumption is challenging unless physicians know what to look for and order the tests to confirm the diagnosis.
Today, the Mercury Policy Project released an expanded case study, all based on reports of doctors diagnosing patients with mercury toxicity.

AbstractAn inclusion complex of β-cyclodextrin and 4-aminothiophenol was assembled by hydrophobic interaction of the host (β-cyclodextrin) and guest (4-aminothiophenol). The complex was isolated as crystalline solid and studied by single crystal X-ray diffraction method along with NMR and IR spectroscopy. Two cyclodextrin rings each containing one disulfide form of 4-aminothiophenol were found to pair up by hydrogen bonding of the outer rim -OH groups. The phenyl disulfide moiety of 4-aminophenyl disulfide molecule was found in the core of β-cyclodextrin, while the amino functional groups were positioned to the exterior of the cyclodextrin ring. Phenyl rings of the guest molecule from each partner of the paired cyclodextrin complex were found parallel to each other, indicating possible π-π stacking interaction between them. View Full-Text

LONDON (AdAge.com) -- Consumer-package-goods giant Reckitt Benckiser is trying to combat low awareness of its corporate brand by targeting younger consumers and challenging them to come up with ideas for a new product.
The company, which makes products from Clearasil spot cream to French's Mustard, found that only 3% of U.K. consumers recognize the Reckitt Benckiser brand.
Consumers across the U.S., U.K., Brazil, Russia, Germany and India will battle it out this fall to win $8,000 by coming up with an idea for a product that can be used at a music festival. Entries can be uploaded as video presentations to a dedicated competition microsite.
Reckitt Benckiser is working on the initiative with Euro RSCG Riley, and will decide whether to go into production with the product only after the winner has been chosen.
"It's all part of a bigger campaign to raise the profile of the company and put across a message of innovation and new-product development -- to underline the fact that new ideas are part of our culture," a company spokeswoman said. "Around 40% of Reckitt's sales come from products launched in the last three years."
"Our brands are well-known, but our name is not," she added. "To enter the competition, people will have to go to our website and really look at what we do. This is a way to encourage people to find out how we operate.
"A lot of it is recruitment driven -- we want people to have Reckitt on their radar when thinking about employment."
In March the company introduced a new corporate identity with a kite-shaped logo, but the design does not feature on its consumer products or in its advertising.

Is it just nostalgia that keeps me attached to this OS Live Out Your Operating System Nostalgia With The Restart Page Live Out Your Operating System Nostalgia With The Restart Page Here on the Internet, you'll see a whole lot of nostalgia – old movies, old music... Pokémon. It's all here, and if it doesn't affect the rest of your life too much, there's nothing wrong... Read More , or was Windows 98 actually worth remembering? It goes without saying that an operating system released 15 years ago had its ups and downs. I remember the ups. It was the first operating system I ever used and the way I was introduced to computers. What about the downs?
Critics have been pretty harsh on the recent versions of Windows. Vista took it the hardest, but there are a lot of you who don't seem to be the biggest fans of Windows 8 either. Maybe we should take a trip back in time and remember just how bad certain parts of Windows 98 were. Love it or hate it, you were in for some pretty big problems. Here are the three Windows 98 bugs that I remember the most.
No Password, No Problem
Windows could never get this right. In Windows 95, you're able to Ctrl+Alt+Del, click File, Run, key in "explorer.exe", and you're in. In Windows XP, you could weasel your way in through the handicap menu. In Windows 98, it's just awesome.
The GIF shown above is legendary among geeks. As you can see, you're able to freely access your Windows 98 desktop by manipulating a few print options during the login procedure.
I'll break the steps down for you:
- Cancel on your initial login attempt
- Click the ? icon, hold down the left mouse, drag your cursor back to the Cancel button, and right-click and select Print Topic…
- Select Properties from the Print prompt
- Select Help
- Go into the Index
- Click the Find tab
- Select the "Custom paper dialogue box" topic (without ticking the box)
- Go to File then Open…
- Navigate to your Desktop
- Select My Computer
- Right-click and select Open
You're in. It's worth it to do this at least once in your life. Who needs password security?
The Terrors of "CON/CON" and "AUX/AUX"
MS-DOS came with special device files that Microsoft didn't want people playing with. With this came the reservation of device file names. These include: CON, PRN, AUX, NUL, COM(1-9), and LPT(1-9). CON and AUX became particularly popular after we realized how troublesome they can be.
Anyone who has used Windows for the past couple of years knows about the Blue Screen of Death 4 Tips to Help You Fix the Windows Blue Screen Error 4 Tips to Help You Fix the Windows Blue Screen Error Read More . Windows 98 was plagued by it.
Plug CON/CON or AUX/AUX into your Run prompt and you'll see that they're just as dangerous as that scanner.
That's not cool. But, what's the big deal? How does this affect us? It can't be used as a prank, right? "Hey, I dare you to type these commands into a prompt!" Well… not quite.
AOL Instant Messenger and ICQ were quite popular back then. HTML-based chats were also a big deal back when Windows 98 SE first dropped. I remember specifically because I was constantly haunted by a user in a chat room who would private message me one little HTML code that would immediately send me into the Blue Screen of Death:
<img src="file:///C:/con/con">
I remember the day, many years later, that I finally read about this Windows 98 bug. It clicked in my head and I immediately thought back to when I was a confused preteen, getting owned over and over by this chat room user. It wasn't fun. There are always alternative ways to achieve this same effect. You could easily mask a hyperlink and send someone to that file path through an IM client.
CON/CON and AUX/AUX were a nightmare.
Horrible Pathing
I haven't seen much coverage of this around the web, but it is a programming oversight that caused quite a bit of trouble for me. It's quite simple to explain through this example: If you save a file with the same name and extension of a critical Windows file or process, even if it is not in the Windows directory, it will essentially "overwrite" this critical file. If you save the file "explorer.exe" directly to the path "C:\", Windows Explorer will not launch when you reboot and your Windows is practically useless.
This can be fixed pretty easily if you're skilled in the arts of Command Prompt 10 Windows Command Line Tips You Should Check Out 10 Windows Command Line Tips You Should Check Out While the Windows command line is not considered as powerful as a Linux's, here are some Windows command line tips and tricks not everyone might know about. Read More , but wow. This is definitely a problem. Did Microsoft not think it was important to point to the absolute path of Windows Explorer (and other important files)?
This Windows 98 bug hit me in the face when I was saving a game from the web to my hard drive. That game just happened to have the word "explorer" in it's title, and that's what I decided to name the executable. It was a quick and messy save right to the root directory of my hard drive. And, guess what I saw a day later when I restarted my computer? Nothing but wallpaper and this game. I was pretty helpless. Times have changed.

These memories and failures have a special place in my heart.
What Windows 98 bugs and errors do you remember most clearly? Did you ever bypass the password prompt or fall victim to CON/CON as mentioned in this article? Let me know in the comments!

You could do something like the first gif on an iPhone.
I tested the "Forgot Password?" Bug. All I did was click cancel and I was in. I had a password on it.
windows 98 has a special space in my heart
it's the first operating system I met too first
I've just spent the last couple of weeks tweaking my Windows 98 SE machine; a PIII @ 450mhz, 768 MB ram, 2 hdd's, 40 and 60 GB respectively, on an Intel SE440BX mobo. The system had developed random freezes due to a dying 8 GB hdd which I replaced with a new 40 GB hdd that I found on ebay for $11 including shipping! That fixed the freezes. For the poster above, I use Clamwin antivirus which updates daily. I also use Opera web browser, but not the latest, Office 97, FrontPage 2000, IE6, Outlook Express, and most important, all of my Windows 98 games, which work flawlessly on a Leadtek Winfast A250 Ultra TD 128 MB graphics AGP card! This pc is on the home network along with a Windows 95 with Plus! Intel 486 machine with 96 MB of Ram, 2 XP computers, and 3 Windows 7 computers. I still also have a 386 machine with 2 MB or Ram, dual booting DOS 3.3 and PC-MOS 4.0! That one's not on the home network though. I just can't bring myself to retire these things!
PHEW! I thought for a second then you were going to mention Windows ME. My favourite OS has to be windows 95 Ver.C (with USB support!). Windows 98 was also the first windows OS to get sliding menus if I remember rightly.
On the bug side. I remember I could make windows 98 go into safe mode after restart by just setting the windows clock back 10 years - Used to send everything haywire!
Windows 98... Unfortunately, a little before my time. Year I was born, actually. I don't remember ever using 98, ME, 2000, or 95 before the age of 10. I do, however, fondly remember doing everything I could to play around in XP, when I didn't know anything more about computers than I could figure out on my own. Now I look back, only a few years later, with my A+ and soon hopefully Network+, and think about that. Funny how time flies...
I still have a win98 and love it, wish I could find a virus program so that I could go online with it.
Great post. Lots of lessons for software developers.
The last one is due to the lack of Windows System File Protection.
98 was a step up from 95 in terms of stability, which isn't saying much when you come off of an almost zero base. At least it recognised my modem, something which 95 refused to do despite the fact that the drivers were 95-specific.
We still have a 40mhz 386DX running win95 which we use at work to run a chemical analysis program. The only time it ever gets rebooted is in the rare occasion of a power outage to the building.
I thought Win 98 was itself a "flat out mistake" :)
Never cared for any of the Win 9.x OSes. Win XP was the first OS that I didn't actively dislike.
Indeed, of all the Microsoft products, the only two that I actually liked were Win 7 and Excel.
Back in time! Didn't knew Windows 98 had these bugs back then.. Nice post!

It's difficult to now recall that the first hour of "Mulholland Drive" was predicated upon the question of whether or not Naomi Watts could act. Her performance worked because the film trafficked in the thrill of the unknown: For the audience, grimacing doubt segued into rapt attention when Watts's Little Mary Sunshine, Betty, mouth full of gleaming pearly whites orthodontized in Deep River, Ontario, entered her first backroom Hollywood audition. Prior to her tremulous and emotional, if admittedly B-movie, line delivery as she read a hokey swath of dialogue with a craggy James Brolin wannabe, we could have only expected more awkward Rebecca of Sunnybrook Farm teleprompting–but Watts in one fell swoop convinced everyone that there was something more lurking behind the pert nose and golden locks. From that point on, "Mulholland Drive" functioned as a nonstop succession of revelations, most of them about Betty, and by extension, Watts herself. The irony was thick: as Betty was being swallowed up into the nightmarish Hollywood chasm, Naomi Watts was getting her first big break. Anyone who was actually watching could feel a star being born–and David Lynch's film, the primal scene of Watts's inception into the Hollywood mechanism (doubled, tripled, refracted through funny mirrors, and spat out again), informs every frame of the new movie "Ellie Parker."
Based on a short made in 2001 before "Mulholland Drive" broke and later expanded to feature length, Scott Coffey's "Ellie Parker" is pleasantly shoe-string (even by DV standards), undeniably grungy (for a theatrical release), self-consciously clunky, and often inept; its minor charms are all caught up with its ungainliness, and whatever appreciation viewers are likely to have will be based solely on their own good will. Rather appropriate for a film that would gain such a wide release if not for the good will of its main actress, whose appearance here–after proving herself a rather formidable movie star in "The Ring" and "21 Grams," and getting her Fay Wray paw prints all over Peter Jackson's upcoming "King Kong"–is a commendable sign of generosity and solidarity for all of her friends involved. Loyalty aside, however, Watts still manages to throw herself so fully into this screeching, squealing, vomiting, hectic spasm of a role that you may want to throw a bucket of ice water over her head. Ostensibly a comedy, although its comic targets are so broad (Hollyweird!) and self-mocking (acting exercises are lame!) that it's less disorientingly amusing than tiresomely familiar.
Which might be the point, but Coffey's little DV project is so forthrightly affectedly "unaffected" (the camera is rarely placed at a vantage point that makes any spatial sense, and the 180 degree rule is so frequently broken that often it seems as though, even within scenes, we're watching two separate films spliced together at the last minute) that it leaves Watts's game full-throttle emotionality stranded. The film belongs to the actress fully, and though she's up for the challenge of playing Ellie Parker, a desperately unhappy out-of-work actress humorously scooting from one job prospect to the next in L.A. ("I Heart Huckabees" proved her dynamite comic timing), Coffey seems to want nothing more than to humiliate her for the film's endless 95-minute running time. If edited together as an almost abstracted series of faceless auditions, "Ellie Parker" might have been something, an increasingly looped evocation of actors' identity loss–and Coffey's not-even-grunge, pseudo-surveillance aesthetic would have supported such a concept. But as is, Coffey's script keeps stuffing Ellie's day with so many cliched embarrassments (boyfriend caught fucking another woman, the meet-cute romantic possibility, pot-smoking reveries) that the cruddy image simply seems what it is (a cheap substitute) rather than a justified visual alternative.
Coffey doesn't know how to work with his limitations (see Bujalski's "Funny Ha Ha" for a master class in how to successfully circumvent budgetary restrictions), but Watts seems determined to retain her dignity, even at the worst moments–admittedly difficult when you're puking up play-doh-blue ice cream all over the floor, or struggling through an open-mouthed crying jag with cheeks crammed with giant chunks of donut. Even creepier than his exploitation of Naomi Watts's willingness to expose herself on camera is Coffey's casting of himself as a untrustworthy cinematographer-cum-antique-shop-worker who grabs Ellie's romantic attention when he rear ends her car. Looking like an even more emaciated Rodney Bingenheimer, Coffey, once Eighties teen standby (blink-and-miss-him parts in "Ferris Bueller's Day Off" and "Some Kind of Wonderful" nevertheless were memorable enough for generations to exclaim "That guy!" upon seeing his mug), looks sad, hollow, and defeated. Never has a director's bitterness been so unintentionally wrought onscreen; Watts may be center stage, but it's Coffey's face that truly expresses "Ellie Parker"'s reason for being.

Take 2 By Kristi Mitsuda
"Ellie Parker" has much in common with the estimable HBO series "Unscripted": a grainy faux-documentary style and a mission to realistically portray the curiously compelling lot of actors struggling towards a one-in-a-million shot at recognition. But unlike "Unscripted," which clearly channels our sympathies toward the would-be stars as they're put through the ringer of soul-defeating auditions and acting classes, Coffey's rendering evinces an apparently subconscious element of mockery–no doubt because the director (it's Chip from "Shag"!) has his fair share of acting experience to draw from–which spins the feature off in a far bleaker and angrier direction.
On the surface, Coffey wants us to identify with Ellie–evident in his decision to have her spew copious cliches along the ever-popular "I don't know who I am" and "I feel like I'm waiting for my life to start" lines. But while we're supposed to humorously empathize with her difficulties, an uncomfortable sensation creeps in as we frequently witness her made a fool; more laughing with, we're made to laugh derisively at her. The writer-director's entrenched bitterness nearly bubbles over, which doubly compounds the bilious resignation Ellie ultimately feels. And on a conscious level, Coffey avoids circling hopefully back around in narrative ways you expect via the usual conduits (a new man, the callback). Opposite to the typical American representations of the underdog, "Ellie Parker" takes a backward rather than forward career progression–and this makes it oddly unsettling and exhilarating, even though Ellie's increasingly downbeat trajectory is, of course, contradicted by the fact of Watts's rightly rocketing to critical accolades and fame since the movie's conception, playing, ironically enough, an unemployed actress in "Mulholland Drive."
If only Coffey had stayed within this framework and continued to play with its animating internal and external tensions rather than tried to afford the movie heft by injecting blandly handled tangential issues of identity and loneliness fostered by the disconnectedness of Los Angeles (already complexly explored in "Collateral"); he needed only take "Ellie Parker"–as schizophrenically and splendidly inhabited by Watts–further down the specific road of disillusionment she travels. The rest is distraction.

Take 3 By Nicolas Rapold
As if to balance her upcoming iconic role as King Kong's crush, Naomi Watts stars as a hustling nobody actress in Scott Coffey's feature-length expansion of his 2001 short "Ellie Parker." Featuring some of the most riveting spazzing by a major (or aiming there) actress in years, this handheld digital-video chronicle of some-days-in-the-life-of seems at first to descend from star-based reality TV, with its on-the-fly unfolding and outtake-like content. But I submit that the film's true progenitor is the community access sketch show. It's all there: the outsider-art accidental aesthetic and discontinuity (epitomized in the primitivist jump-cut), the this-is-my-apartment staging (even outside), and the late-night-loopy sketch humor that sometimes hits unexpectedly and otherwise feels therapeutically trance-like. The only thing missing is a campy hand puppet, but a disinterred, unbearably disturbing Chevy Chase serves ably, as Ellie's agent. And, too, Watts is perhaps a tad well-known to compare to a community access star, but she did star in the original "Ellie Parker" short before "Mulholland Drive" both brought about and dramatized her rise to stardom.
"Parker" continues this self-dramatization and fulfills her penchant for ragged narratives that threaten to swallow up their protagonists ("21 Grams," "Stay"). Toggling smoothly from one accent to the next and, in the signature scene, changing outfits while driving to an audition, Watts herself seems to muffle her human presence with an intimidatingly tossed-off performance, in which her own intelligence seeps through to makes her character's supposed distraction and drunk-gal boppin' seem laughable. The artifice underlines the impolitic question behind all Watts's performances, in which she renders herself a transparent vessel for emotion but almost clinically so, her technical self-control amounting to something perhaps more "raw" than raw. But she does get nothing but props for making good on the promise of the pre-stardom short and headlining Scott Coffey's Fantabulous Screen Starlet and Potpourri Show!

Who Watches the Watchdogs?
Watchdog, the BBC television series that investigates viewers' reports of problematic experiences with traders, retailers, and other companies around the UK, recently aired an episode that claimed to confront the issue of the PlayStation 3's "yellow light of death". Before the program was shown Sony issued an extremely comprehensive and, understandably defensive statement regarding the show.
The six-page document, found on GamesIndustry.biz, disputes the accuracy of the report:
I have serious concerns as to the accuracy of these allegations and the likely tone of the Watchdog report…
– Ray Maguire, Senior Vice President and Managing Director on Sony Computer Entertainment UK.
He continued:
The information that you have provided suggests a fundamental misunderstanding of the technical issues and a mis-characterisation of SCEUK's Out of Warranty repairs policy.
This Thursday's Watchdog, which also investigated a man who conned cancer sufferers and a woman who took thousands of pounds from children, decided to use the PlayStation as its center piece for the show, focusing on a possibly "inherent" problem in the console and Sony's lack of support for hardware failure sufferers.
After briefly mentioning Sony's one year guarantee, the BBC proceeded to show how Sony was over charging for its out of warrantee repair system (£128), claiming that the company acted out of 'greed' – even though they admitted that the service was operated at a loss by Sony. An alternative offered by Watchdog was to use an unauthorized third-party repairer who would fix the console for a cheaper price. In one segment of the program, Iain Lee, comedian and Microsoft gaming columnist, paraded outside Sony's London Head Quarters waving a sign saying:
"PlayStation Repair Action Team – SONY charge a fee – let Watchdog repair it for free"
Watchdog then proceeded to fix eleven PlayStation 3's in the back of a van, saying how their process was far cheaper, and that all they had to do was to reheat the console so that the soldering melted back on (while Sony uses equipment that costs "tens of thousands of pounds"). Four of the PlayStations broke before the show even aired.
Ann Robinson, Watchdog's expressionless presenter, made several quips about Sony's Corporate avarice, while simultaneously saying that the PS3 now costs £400 (a price point which it has not been at for over a year). She also warned how the failure rate of PS3s could be far higher than the 12,500 affected in the UK (which is half of one percent), an unfounded and damaging statement.
Millions of viewers tune in to Watchdog every week, basing many of their consumer purchases on the information given in the program. Sony expressed "serious concerns" over the content of the show, warning:
"If the report is broadcast in what appears to be its current form, SCEUK will scrutinize its accuracy and will take all necessary steps to protect its reputation and that of the PS3."
Meanwhile, the BBC did not seem to take the matter as seriously, ending the show with a humorous song about the "highly expensive" PS3's "yellow light of death."
PSLS has contacted the BBC and Watchdog for an official response.

- Wedding: May 2014
My aunt, who can be kinda crazy, is a retired hairstylist and I knew she wanted to be a part of my wedding day. I asked her if she would like to do the bridesmaids hair (a simple side bun with a few curls by their face). She quickly agreed and I told her they would all pay her for it (they all offered to pay for their own hair). About a week ago she started texting me telling me I need to get hairspray and bobby pins from a beauty supply store. Today, she called the store and put the items she wanted on hold for me and my mom to go get. She texted me and told me the items were there and that the total was $30!
I'm sorry, but there is no way in hell I am paying $30 for hairspray and a pack of hair pins. My mom told her we would pick up some Pantene instead and get the bobby pins from another store. My aunt flipped her shit. She told us that we need to find another hairdresser to do the BMs hair because she is a "professional" hairstylist and she will not use "that drugstore CRAP!" She also said that my BM's want to look pretty too and asked if I even think about them and it's not just about me. Um, what?
So not only will I need to pay $30 to get her what she "needs", all my BM's have to pay her on top of that. For that price, they might as well go to the salon I am going to and get their hair done there! The whole reason we asked my aunt to do this is because the salon I am going to said they will charge the BM's only $5 less than what they are charging me. And all they are getting is a simple side bun.
Part of me says "Just pay the $30 and suck it up!" but the other part of me says "No! She doesn't need $30 hairspray and bobby pins."
I can't wait to be on our honeymoon…stress free!

Last fall I was asked, by a national publication, to write an article about innovative marketing by art galleries in this economy. I said I couldn't. I explained that I have yet to see galleries doing anything truly innovative, so it would be impossible for me to write such an article.
The truth is, artists are far more innovative with their marketing than galleries or museums are. Perhaps it's because they aren't constrained by institutional traditions. Nonetheless, galleries need to take note of what is possible. They need to watch how artists are promoting themselves.
Here are some ideas for galleries.
Make education a core mission.
Fact: Most of the US population does not have a visual education. They don't know how to look at and appreciate art. Every museum professional knows this, which is why curators and educators create

Illegal Fireworks Mishap Blows Off Parts Of California Man's Hands
A Northern California man igniting illegal fireworks blew off both of his hands when a device exploded prematurely, police said.
Officer Albert Morales of the San Jose Police Department said the man is expected to live. The explosive went off in the man's hands as family members stood nearby late on the Fourth of July holiday.
"It would have had to have been something pretty powerful," Morales told the San Jose Mercury News.
According to the Los Angeles Times, the man, Alazar Ortiz, 40, had his right hand amputated by doctors as a result of the accident and lost a couple of fingers of his left hand.
Family members told local media that Ortiz is a construction worker and won't be able to make a living anymore.
The Mercury News also reported that two other men were seriously injured in Sunnyvale while lighting a mortar-like explosive on Friday.
The Sunnyvale Department of Public Safety said that at 10 p.m. the men — ages 41 and 32 — were hurt at an apartment complex when the illegal firework ignited prematurely. Witnesses in a group of about 20 people said the men had been trying to ignite the firework when it went off in their hands, officials reported.
Police didn't release the names of the individuals involved.
One man lost fingers on his left hand and finger tips on the right hand, while officials said the other man lost part of his right hand.
In Southern California, a man lost his thumb Friday after the firecracker he was holding exploded in his hand, Long Beach police said Sunday.
The Associated Press contributed to this report.

I usually roll my eyes when I hear someone say that a player "plays like a Raven." But in the case of Florida safety Matt Elam, the team's first-round pick, I can't help but nod my head. It sounds as if the Ravens agree.
"I started to watch Matt, and I've never been so excited. It was fun watching him play," general manager Ozzie Newsome said late, late Thursday night. "It's been a long time. Watch play after play on tape, and you just go, 'Wow. Oh, wow.' … The way he played on tape is the way that you have to play in the AFC North."
At 5-foot-10, Elam is a little shorter than what you would like at the safety position, but he runs fast, hits hard and loves football, according to Newsome. He is versatile, too, which comes in handy in today's NFL, where running backs and tight ends get flexed out and safeties are often asked to run with them in man coverage.

It is both surprising and saddening to see in-store floor advertising assessed by Richard Rebh [CEO of Floor Graphics] as "giving advertisers one-to-one interactive relationships with their target markets" ("Floors in stores start moving," AA, Aug. 20).
Lonely hearts and savvy marketers alike realize profitable relationships are established and nurtured with real, identifiable people, not with "markets." The fact that product messages can randomly spring to life in supermarket aisles has quite little to do with a consumer's deliberate, informed choice to enter into brand dialogue.
In retail channels as in life, one-to-one relationships aren't "given." They're born of arousal, desire, co-action and constancy ... a dynamic advertising process for which techno-wizardry is a poor substitute.

Hats off to Burger King
My hat is off to Burger King and its insightful management for selecting Howard Draft to head up the integration of Interpublic's units ("Draft crowned king of bur-ger team," AA, Aug. 20). Finally a major marketer has recognized the value of having a behavior-based marketing specialist be a significant influence on the totality of the marketing communications process.
I imagine Interpublic's agency management might be scratching their heads at such a decision. After all, traditional brand advertising has always commanded the lead agency position in the hearts and minds of corporate marketers and CEOs. Why would a client want a sales promotion or direct marketing guy to lead the charge?
It's simple. The business of Burger King is all about getting customers into stores, getting them there more often and getting them to spend more when they're there. It's all about building customer equity, and that takes the skills and understanding of relationship marketing, along with all the wonderful tools of its trade.
Please, Mr. Draft, do a wonderful job. We're pulling for you.

Against `junk' fax ads
Re: Rance Crain's column "Ad groups should be vigilant in defending the right to fax" (View-point, AA, July 30). I have been involved in advertising and design for the last 20 years. This is how I make my living. But I must disagree with this advertising-to-make-money-at-all-costs point of view. The consumer has rights-especially the right to choose to be able to not be disturbed with advertising in their home environment. When I hook up a fax machine, I want it to be used for my personal business, not as a venue for others to advertise to me. Why shouldn't I have this choice?

Rance Crain wonders how Con-gress could pass a law that prohibits faxing ads to people without their permission. Perhaps Mr. Crain should try hooking up a fax machine to his home phone number; that way he'd know what it's like to get all those late night calls about Bahama getaways and weight loss plans. (Repeated calls to be removed from such marketers' lists frequently go unheeded.)

`Whassup' and Disney
First of all, hurrah for our kids that someone in advertising actually cares about what is reaching our children! ("`Whassup' with that, Disney? Station plays a Bud-like song," Viewpoint, AA, June 25). Radio Disney is the best thing that's come along for our kids via radio since Orphan Annie's show in the '50s. What else will your kids listen to in the car? Kiss FM? I agree that "Whassup" shouldn't be played on Radio Disney, but maybe you can turn the radio off while that song is in play.

In almost two weeks after the scandalous broadcast aired by the Georgian Imedi channel, NATO responded at last to this media provocation.

The official block representative James Appathurai made a statement before the meeting of NATO Secretary General Anders Fogh Rasmussen and the president of the republic Mikhail Saakashvili.

It's a boy!!!!
We went to our 20 week ultrasound yesterday and everything looks great! Our little muchkin has been kicking around a lot lately (I am super grateful for that!) so I couldn't wait to see him on the screen.
Here is his profile picture. He was a super huge stinker, always moving when she (the tech) needed him still and not moving when she needed him to move! It looks like we are going to have a very active youngster in our house come August :)
Here are his sweet feet. Being able to see the bottoms of both feet at the same time is a good sign of normal feet :)
|Here is what I looked like a few weeks ago :)
We also have some other news: Matthew's gravestone was placed on his grave last week! Here it is:
|The monkey I designed it from
We are truly grateful for the gift that God has given us in this second son. Someone I met in January shared that since losing their little girl (their first baby) with T-18 in June last year at 28 weeks (only 6 months before I met her) she had had 2 more miscarriages. I can't imagine going through that. I have also heard of others who have had secondary infertility after losing a baby. We know that we are very blessed to have been able to conceive again and to continue to carry our little one. Thank you all for your prayers and support, it has meant a lot to us.

In some European colonies, the governing country might have been relatively lackadaisical about resistance movements and independence movements, unless they surfaced in active rebellion. This was certainly true of the British in India. However, in the nearby island of Madagascar, the ruling French kept a tight lid on everything. In either case, the end result was the same, as it proved unprofitable to continue holding on to these colonies. This movie, made by a French-trained native of Madagascar...more

User talk:Wconnolly648
Hi there,
Welcome to the site!
When editing pages, please remember you are writing on behalf of a large website. Everything must be fact - not opinion which can be argued or get us into trouble - because otherwise it's not clear who said what.
Of course we'd love to hear your opinions on different services, but please keep them to the forums or Facebook page. You can also update your user page and add your opinions there.
Unfortunately, opinion pieces placed on the main part of the website will have to be taken down. Johnathan404 (talk) 08:37, 1 April 2016 (BST)
Edit Warring[edit]
Please do not make the same edit repeatedly. It was removed, every time, for a reason: as explained, the linked article does not qualify as a suitable survey (it wasn't a formal review; it was a collection of user opinions).
This is a serious matter. I note this is not the first time. It certainly will not be happening again.
Johnathan404 (talk) 12:24, 30 June 2016 (BST)
Copyright Violations and Lazy Editing[edit]
Good morning,
As much as we value contributions here, if you can't think of anything to say which isn't:
- 1 Copied from another website
- 2 Pointing people to another website
...it probably isn't worth writing anything at all. There's no rush. I have hundreds of pages I need to write but will only post when they're ready, but instead of getting them ready, I'm having to spend my time investigating content being stolen from Wikipedia.
There are lots of websites which steal, it's irritating, we are better than that. Stealing from any website is bad, but copying from Wikipedia, which is often inaccurate and irrelevant, is ridiculous. That's not just something teachers say: I know Wikipedia has lots of wrong information about MSAs.
As for pointing people to other websites, that's what people use Google for, not us. If you need to use another website to complete the article it's probably not worth starting it, especially if the other website is either a hastily-written newspaper article or an unofficial industry insider. There are hundreds of the latter, including us.
It's all about quality. Take a read of our Featured Content: there's more like that to come.

Mariah Carey, Nick Cannon, Katy Perry, and Diddy as Easter Bunnies.
Photo: Via @MariahCarey's Twitter/Markus Molinari's Pheed/@IamDiddy's Instagram
Every time Easter rolls around, we're always sure to spot celebs decked out in their Sunday best—you know, the usual floral-printed frock or pastel-colored blazer. This year, though, we were caught a little off-guard by some of our favorite musicians' Easter get-ups as they took a very literal stylistic approach to the holiday. Long story short, Mariah Carey, Katy Perry and Diddy all dressed up as Easter Bunnies. Like, actual rabbits. With ears. And white fur. Don't believe us? Well, Mariah posted a Twitpic of herself and hubby Nick Cannon with the caption, "Happy Easter dahhlings...I finally caught the Easter bunny." She sported a strapless ombre pink dress with nude heels, a diamond necklace, square shades and, of course, some bunny ears! Nick went all-out in his rabbit costume, which featured floppy ears, a bunny nose and teeth, a purple blazer with blue and green lapels, and over-sized white gloves. So. Amazing.
Katy Perry went for a more demure Easter Bunny look by sporting satin pink and white ears with a GORGE pale yellow bejeweled neckline sheer lace dress. For her beauty game, she sported a lightly-curled bob with a soft smokey eye, killer brows, and a nude lip. Perf! Diddy went ALL. OUT. for Easter Sunday—he sported a white bunny costume complete with teal vest (please peep the carrot detailing) and polka dot pastel bow tie. He topped off the look with a full rabbit head, which, to be honest, we're kind of glad he took off for the photo. (See these creepy Easter Bunny photos, and you'll understand why.) Overall, we love how celebs got super into the spirit of Easter, but we want to know what you think—tell us who channeled the Easter Bunny best in the comments below!
