The Movies:
Alex Karpovsky is probably best known for playing an offbeat jerk in Lena Dunham's film Tiny Furniture and on her TV show Girls. The popularity of Girls is clearly the reason two of Karpovsky's directorial efforts/starring vehicles, the road trip comedy Red Flag and the low-key thriller Rubberneck, got a perfunctory theatrical engagement as a double-feature last year. Now, this odd program hits DVD with about as much fanfare as it got in the cinema.
First up is Red Flag, which feels like Karpovsky's attempt at a mumblecore Stardust Memories. Karpovsky appears in this fictional film as himself, as if to one-up Woody Allen, who has frequently played himself but hides behind the construct of character names. Nonetheless, Karpovsky's choice feels lazy instead of bold.
The movie opens with Alex moving out of his longtime girlfriend's house, unable to get his dog to come along with him. (The dog's 30-second appearance might be the strongest performance in the film.) Then he screws up his back loading boxes into his car. Then he breaks down crying as he drives away. Like most of the film's humor, this plays as medium-funny: not quite sharp enough to make you burst out laughing, but with the proper rhythm of a joke so you know that one just happened. Karpovsky has a built-in sourpuss expression, meaning the strongest comedy moments usually just involve his deadpan reactions. Still, Karpovsky tries physical gags, which mostly flounder (apart from one moment where a necklace flung during a pre-Mardi Gras parade flies right into that sourpuss of his).
Alex does a ten-city U.S. tour, showing his 2008 film Woodpecker at a handful of tiny repertory theaters and art houses and then shilling DVD copies after each show. Again, the storytelling choice that the film being shown within the film is Karpovsky's own actual work should give the fiction a feeling of reality; instead, it just feels like more self-referential laziness. Considering this and the flat, documentary-style cinematography by Adam Ginsberg, one can easily imagine Karpovsky booking a promo tour for his film in real life and then hastily deciding to concoct some dramatic scenes to shoot along the way.
At one of the stops, Alex has sex with a hippy-dippy filmgoer named River (Jennifer Prediger). Though he gives her a very obvious cold shoulder after their tryst, she shows up at his next screening a few hundred miles away. At this point, Alex has started car-tripping with his friend, a children's book author named Henry (Ding-a-ling-less director Onur Tukel). Henry really likes River, and the two start aggressively courting. Up until then, Alex has hidden both his one-night stand and his break-up from Henry. But when Alex convinces his ex Rachel (Caroline White) to fly out to one of the stops on the tour, he's unable to keep his mounting collection of lies from unraveling.
While Karpovsky manages to pull off quite a few of his scenes, including a surprisingly affecting ending, this feels like a solid 15-minute short padded out to a frequently boring hour and a half. Red Flag rating: ** out of 5.
In the second film in the set, Rubberneck, Karpovsky's stylistic inspiration seems to have shifted from Woody Allen to the recent thrillers of Steven Soderbergh. The slow-burn storytelling effectively approximates something like Soderbergh's Side Effects, but the low-budget aesthetic -- which is admittedly much more stylish than Red Flag -- sometimes causes the film to resemble a straight-to-cable cheapie circa 1993. And while Karpovsky's approach is far less loosey-goosey this time, Rubberneck is not quite a Hitchcockian example of masterful audience manipulation. Not to harp on the Woody Allen comparison, but it's similar to Match Point, which was also a noble, semi-successful experiment from someone working outside their normal skill set.
Rubberneck capitalizes on Karpovsky's naturally creepy awkwardness in its portrait of a toxic romantic obsession. Karpovsky is Paul, a nerdy research scientist who successfully seduces an attractive new coworker, Danielle (Jaime Ray Newman). After a suitably Showtime-y sex scene in the shower, Danielle shuts the introvert down and plays off their tryst as no big deal. But, for Paul, it is a big deal. Months and months pass, and Paul refuses to let go of their stillborn relationship. His sister Linda (Amanda Good Hennessey) tries to persuade him to see other women and get over the whole Danielle thing. He pays lip service to the idea by going on dates with a lovely hooker named Kathy (Dakota Shepard). When a hunky new researcher named Chris (Dennis Staroselsky) starts aggressively flirting with Danielle, and it's clear that she likes it, Paul switches gears from quietly pining to actively stalking.
Karpovsky is a far more effective performer in this film, taking the time to craft a character instead of just appearing as himself. With a too-short haircut that makes him look older than his years, Karpovsky the actor successively expresses the full range of Paul's multifaceted personality, even if Karpovsky the writer (collaborating with Garth Donovan) eventually ends up pigeonholing Paul as just the messy end-product of a long-ago trauma. The rest of the cast seems not only more polished than the performers in Red Flag, but more importantly, they seem to approach their roles with greater focus.
Though it possesses enough qualities to recommend it, Rubberneck is not a home run. It's less egregiously overlong than Red Flag, but I still found myself sporadically bored by this 85-minute movie. And while I'm sure there's a niche group out there for it, it feels really gratuitous for us to have to watch Karpovsky's prominently featured naked butt thrusting during sex scenes in both movies. (Okay, that's a goofy quibble, but I felt it had to be mentioned.)
Still, Rubberneck is quite watchable all the way to the end. It definitely stands as greater incentive to keep an eye on Karpovsky as both a filmmaker and an actor than Red Flag, and it would serve as a perfect little time-killer if you're in the mood for something off the beaten path. Rubberneck rating: *** out of 5.
The DVD
The Video & Audio: This is a pretty middle-of-the-road A/V presentation. Both films are presented as 1.77:1 widescreen, with no major flaws in the transfer. As I said above, Red Flag was shot with a no-frills, psuedo-doc look, so it's not really eye-popping to begin with. But, I noticed no serious compression issues, even in the dark scenes. Rubberneck cinematographer Beecher Cotton takes a more noir-by-way-of-Cinemax approach, and sometimes the high-contrast scenes end up with crushed blacks and video noise. It's not enough to derail the viewing experience, but it's noticeable. The Dolby stereo audio tracks for both movies are cleanly mixed, but mostly just functional. The musical scores, by Teddy Blanks (Red Flag) and James Lavino (Rubberneck), are surprisingly impressive-sounding, considering the lack of a surround option. No subtitles, but the disc offers closed captioning.
Special Features: None.
Final Thoughts: Despite a few good moments, Red Flag is skippable. Rubberneck is not a masterpiece, but it's certainly worth a rental (it can also currently be viewed on its own on Netflix). I'll round up on this one and say Rent It.

House Dems embrace Obama
House Democrats are in a pretty good mood these days.
At their retreat in Leesburg, Va., this week, lawmakers positively beamed while listening to President Barack Obama speak on Thursday, erupting into applause and snapping photos with their iPhones.
Story Continued Below
In fact, Obama told them, if House Democrats stick with him, he expects "Nancy Pelosi to be speaker again."
That's a long way up for a party that was depressed and downtrodden — and is still in the minority after devastating losses in the 2010 elections. Judging by their enthusiasm at the retreat this week, it seems hard to remember the Democrats of two years ago, who viewed Obama as something of a dead weight on their reelection chances.
Obama's reelection changed everything, Democratic leaders believe , and they are more than ready to embrace the president's ambitious second-term agenda, which includes an overhaul of the immigration system and gun control legislation.
( Also on POLITICO: Obama's second term: Return of the liberal)
But they also aren't averse to working with Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio) and House Republicans to get things done, aware that they might be more reliable partners for the GOP leader than members of his own conference. House Democrats, not Republicans, after all, helped push the fiscal cliff deal over the line.
"Time has already shown that [House Republicans] can't really do it without us. They can pass resolutions or bills that go to the Senate and go nowhere. But so far they've needed help — more help from us than they got from themselves," said Michigan Rep. Sander Levin. "I think the same will be true of immigration — they need not only our votes, they need our input."
Of course, House Democrats are still in the minority, with little power to influence the legislative agenda and often aren't given direct seats at the table when it comes to hashing out deals over things like the debt ceiling and sequester.
But that isn't stopping them from sounding an optimistic note heading into 2013, with some signs the House GOP is willing to compromise and a re-energized Obama lending a helping hand.
The GOP is recalibrating its strategy after suffering losses at the ballot box in November, and the fiscal battles of the 112th Congress left the conference beleaguered. But there's still a significant portion of the GOP that wants to continue to fight the president's agenda or anything that doesn't include significant spending cuts. It's unclear what House Republicans will end up bringing to the floor over the course of this session, but in some areas, the tone has changed.
( Also on POLITICO: Cantor aims to rebrand House GOP)
On immigration, Republicans have signaled they are ready to at least try to do something. A bipartisan House group is preparing a blueprint of what an overhaul of the immigration system might look like, and a similar Senate group has already released a proposal.
Those are good signs, said House Democratic Caucus Chairman Xavier Becerra of California, that the two parties would be able to work together to get something accomplished.
"We're working with the American people in believing that this Congress can change, [that] it can be something other than a dysfunctional Congress," Becerra said. "It doesn't have to be an ad hoc Congress that creates budgets on a weekly basis and actually be a Congress that works for the American people."

"With a Royal Baby Due, News Outlets Are on High Alert" reported the New York Times (7/14/13) in a piece detailing the extensive planning that TV networks have done in order to cover the any-day-now arrival of the child of Prince William and Kate Middleton.
The Times said it "will be a spectacle unlike any other in the modern media age"; the ABC website has a special section ("sponsored by Nestlé"), while "NBC News has a site called RoyalBabyGuess.com, asking for predictions about name, birth time and weight. To make it more fun, the people whose guesses come closest might be mentioned on the Today show." Both networks are sending anchors to cover the big event.
You can compare this treatment to an array of other, legitimately more important events in the world, of course. It's not hard to come up with a list of things that are of greater consequence.
How about the trial of Bradley Manning? It only requires a trip to a military courtroom in Ft. Meade, Maryland. No corporations are likely to sponsor the Official Bradley Manning Trial website, but it's impossible to argue that Manning isn't news.
But network TV news has made that decision already.
As I noted before (FAIR Blog, 6/4/13) the evening newscasts briefly mentioned the start of the trial– with NBC Nightly News anchor Brian Williams calling it the "court martial of the man who may have put U.S. military secrets in the hands of Osama bin Laden."
Inflammatory, sure– and also apparently the last time the trial was mentioned on NBC Nightly News. A similar brief summary aired on NBC's Today.
The other networks were hardly any better. On ABC's Good Morning America (6/4/13), viewers were told that Manning was an "Army private charged with the biggest leak of classified information in US history." But apparently the biggest leak ever wasn't big enough to merit much additional coverage; the only other mention of the trial on ABC came because WikiLeaks' Julian Assange brought it up during an interview on the Sunday show This Week (6/30/13).
CBS Evening News briefly mentioned the Manning trial on June 3, but has never talked about it since then. The day before the CBS show Sunday Morning reported (6/2/13) this:
There is a look at the week ahead on our Sunday Morning calendar. Monday, the court-martial begins on remaining charges against Army intelligence analyst Bradley Manning, accused of passing government secrets to the WikiLeaks website. On Tuesday, Doctor Ruth Westheimer celebrates her eighty-fifth birthday. After fleeing Nazi Germany in her youth, Westheimer found success as a media sex expert.

Judging by the word count, the trial is slightly less important than Dr. Ruth's birthday.
CBS This Morning had an interview with WikiLeaks' Assange on June 7– which including this question from host Charlie Rose:
You know, let's talk about the Bradley Manning case because everyday all of us who are in journalism believe that it's the responsibility for the journalist to hold government accountable and that is the responsibility. But also there is a sense that you do not do things that threaten national security and endanger the lives of innocent Americans. That doesn't seem to be a concern for you and Mister Manning.
Assange called that charge "completely false," pointing out that U.S. government is not even making the case that individuals were harmed by the disclosures.
So that is the state of network television coverage of a whistleblower, held without trial for 3 years, who revealed information that made headlines in the most powerful news outlets around the world for months. That is how U.S. television networks are covering a trial where the U.S. government is attempting to argue that publishing information that finds its way into the hands of U.S. enemies is in fact "aiding the enemy"– a stunning legal strategy that holds the potential to criminalize investigative journalism.
No, all of that is apparently just barely newsworthy. But a baby born to the British royal family is news– and has already been the subject of more substantive network TV coverage (NBC Nightly News, 7/14/13).
And the same could be said for a cheesy, little-watched TV movie Sharknado, which was the subject of an NBC Nightly News report on July 12. Or the NBC reports about a new flavor of Hamburger Helper or a new hardwood floor cleaning tool.
Kevin Gosztola, one of the independent journalists covering the Manning trial, recently told Democracy Now! (7/16/13) that the trial "really is only being covered when the outlets in the U.S. media feel they have an obligation to cover something."
Which, for the major TV networks, would seem to be basically never.

Eric Biddines has the street-wise vocal swagger and a gold grill in his mouth, but that's where the rap-music stereotypes end for the Palm Beach County resident.
A 29-year-old father of two boys ages 3 and 5, Biddines has been married for five years, is an avid reader of sci-fi and fantasy novels and doesn't smoke or drink.
Perhaps even more remarkable is Biddines' writing, which brings a distinct introspectiveness and vulnerability to subjects that escape the notice of even rap's most sensitive storytellers: the virtues of a solo stroll ("Walking") and a leisurely cup of joe ("Coffee Cup"). The November video release for "Zero Population," a story delivered in staccato bursts of Southern twang, depicts a post-apocalyptic world with Biddines the lone survivor, but a lonely one.
While his cup of coffee is a metaphor for universal questions about day-to-day life, Biddines acknowledges such subject matter may be a challenge for the typical rap fan, no matter how fiery his delivery.
"You can either play the game safe, or you can take a risk and get a bigger reward," says Biddines, who will perform Friday at Delray Beach's Arts Garage.
Born in Ocala and raised in Delray Beach, where he graduated from Atlantic High School, Biddines devoured all the "Harry Potter" novels (Philip Pullman's fantasy "The Golden Compass" is another favorite), and is a regular reader of "Fast Company" and "Entrepreneur" magazines.
In July, Biddines, now living in West Palm Beach, released his fifth album, "Planetcoffeebean 2," an intelligent, real-world survey of contemporary culture, its critiques of economic enslavement ("Railroads Down/Unfinished") and misogyny (Stripper Documentary") laid over echoes of the Marvin Gaye and Al Green soul music he heard growing up.
The album was released on Biddines' own Planetcoffeebean label. While he has had discussions with major labels from time to time, Biddines is skeptical of letting outside experts assign him a specific demographic audience.
"Meanwhile, that target totally dismisses a whole space of people who are open to hearing something new," he says.
Biddines is surprised as anyone that a meditation on the ritual "therapy" of coffee became an actual song worthy of his album. But "it's way more deeper," as he says in the song. Sample lyric: "I don't know everything, but I know life. It's random, and make sure you stir your coffee right. I'm gifted in the sense to know that happiness is gold. Everybody is unique, we was made to cut the mold."
The name of his label, Planetcoffeebean, represents an energetic lifestyle in which adherents live "outside the norm," Biddines says.
"It's a metaphor, but I actually do love coffee," he says. His favorite spot these days is Coasters on South J Street in downtown Lake Worth, where, he says, "Each cup feels like it's personal."
Caffeine has been Biddines' only vice since he gave up alcohol about a decade ago. He grew up in the Carver Estates housing project, where drugs were "all around." He admits he could have easily headed down that road, but was stopped by one of his hip-hop heroes, Andre 3000.
"It was a line from an Outkast song [the title track from the 1996 album 'ATLiens'] that was one of the biggest influences on me," Biddines recalls. "Andre 3000 said, 'No drugs or alcohol so I can get the signal clear as day.' No rapper was saying these things on a song. It inspired me."
Biddines says he has nothing against other people drinking — "It's something I did for myself" — but he does have a line in the new song "Bad Broads" that acknowledges his personal ban on alcohol and drugs. If that makes him "a more accepted role model, at least my self control, that would be kind of cool," he says.
When: 9 p.m. Friday, Dec. 27
Where: Arts Garage, 180 NE First St., Delray Beach
Cost: $20 (table for six $100)

Parent Resources
Montessori's goals for children are often in alignment with a parent's own goals for their children: that children respect and care for the people and things around them, have fun while they learn, and take responsibility for their actions.
Child Development and Montessori
School should offer children more than just academic skills. It should help them grow into confident, independent, caring and self-motivated people. The goal of Montessori education is to develop the whole person; someone who is more than the sum of their test scores.
Equally important to the Montessori experience is the growth of the child's character. Montessori teachers strive to engender in the child a sense of responsibility and the connectedness of people and things. Children learn that their choices have consequences, not only in their immediate interpersonal relationships, but also in the world at large. By allowing safe consequences to flow freely from the child's choice, he learns to exert control over himself to limit negative results and promote positive ones. This development of executive function, most particularly self-regulation, is at the core of the child's drive towards confidence and independence.
In Montessori classrooms, academic skills are integrated into the natural life of the classroom. Through hands-on play, the most basic foundations of mathematics and literacy are introduced through games, activities, and with special materials that appeal to children. Contrary to many adults' schooling experiences, children in Montessori schools enjoy math, reading and writing, and enthusiastically look forward to their next lesson. This sets up a love of learning that the child will carry with her throughout life.
Understanding children's developmental needs is important in creating positive parent/child relationships. Children, especially very young ones, are intensely driven by their developmental needs, which can sometimes clash with the needs of parents and caregivers. By understanding the child's drive towards independence, we learn to offer her the time and skills she needs to complete the task herself. The intense effort she puts into small, repetitive tasks is deeply satisfying, and the end result gives her confidence and comfort in her skills. If she is not allowed to work through the task to completion, the child may react strongly. This kind of opposition, originated in the conflicting needs of the adult and the child, highlights one of the main obstacles to a harmonious relationship between adults and children.
One of the key tenets of Montessori theory is that this harmonious relationship can be achieved through understanding why children act the way they do, and by patiently offering them experiences that fulfill their deep, inner developmental drives. The entire Montessori environment is designed to meet these drives and satisfy them through the child's own activity. In Montessori schools, children have fun while they learn, respect and care for the people and things around them, and take responsibility for their actions. This is true preparation for real life.
There are several factors to consider when choosing a Montessori school for your child.
Each Montessori school has its own 'personality'. For example, some are more academically oriented, while others more strongly emphasize the child's connection to nature and the outdoors. Parents should discuss the school's mission and programs with the admissions director to ensure that the school is a good fit for their child and their family.
Parents should observe at a school before selecting it for their child, preferably in the classroom their child will attend. Most Montessori schools welcome observers, and the children are accustomed to visitors. The visitor is typically directed to a chair where they sit and observe the entire room. Observations usually last thirty minutes to an hour, and allow the observer to get a feel for the room. Consider asking to observe at a school more than once; every day is unique!
Although every classroom is a little different, there are some general traits that indicate a quality Montessori environment:
- The teacher has received quality Montessori training
- The children seem generally happy and relaxed
- The children independently select activities from the shelf and use them with concentration
- The environment seems orderly and the materials in good condition
- Most interactions between children are positive, but in cases where they are not positive, the children generally resolve the problem by themselves
- The children are treated with respect by all adults
There is no trademark or governing body to ensure the quality of Montessori schools. In 1929, Maria Montessori became aware that there were a growing number of schools using the term "Montessori" to describe their environments, with little evidence of Montessori principles. To prevent this, she attempted to trademark her name, but it was decided by the courts that the term Montessori was already in the public domain. As a result, any school can label itself a 'Montessori school' regardless of teacher training.
Maria Montessori created the Association Montessori Internationale (More on AMI here) to protect the integrity of her work. Today, schools with AMI-trained teachers have met the high standards for teacher training that Maria Montessori set down over eighty years ago.
Observing and working with real children in real classrooms is a critical component of AMI teacher training. We are deeply grateful to the schools and staff who have participated in Observation and Practice Teaching by hosting MNW teachers in training. Click here to view the entire list. Some states have associations or organizations that compile lists of Montessori schools. An internet search should locate one for your state, if it exists. In the state of Oregon, the Oregon Montessori Association provides a list of its member schools.
Ideally, a child's developmental needs are met by both their home and school environments. Even small changes can yield great results.
The preparation of the child's environment will change as he grows older. When the child is very young, the emphasis is on safety, increasing independence, and access to appropriate toys and activities. For example, a young child might have a low table in the kitchen on which a glass and a small pitcher with water are available at all times. This allows the child to get a drink of water herself whenever she is thirsty. This kind of preparation of the home environment can be repeated in many ways, and mirrors closely the self-directed experiences the child has in the Montessori classroom.
Children feel great satisfaction when they are included in family tasks. From setting the table, to folding the laundry, to raking leaves, fostering your child's genuine interest in contributing to family life benefits everyone. The child feels confidence and self-worth at having contributed, and parents set up an expectation from an early age that everyone helps around the house.
Encouraging your child to make choices at an early age is one of the most powerful gifts a parent can offer. Giving choices fosters independence, cooperation and experience with natural consequences. This can be done in many ways. For a very young child, it can be as simple as, "Would you like to wear the blue shirt or the red shirt today?" This technique of offering choices can be extended into all parts of the child's life, growing in relation to her abilities, and leading to development of executive function and self-regulation.

My formal training is in computer information systems, MCSE, database management and control system programming. I have an insatiable curiosity about most things computer related. In other words I am a "geek". More appropriately, a "geekette".
My artistic explorations have included; stained glass, jewelry, and commissioned colored pencil portraits.
My latest fascination, the creation of fractal art, has merged both my logical and creative processes. Fractals, which are composed on the computer, utilize algorithmic formulas to produce amazingly beautiful, intricately detailed, highly individual artworks. When starting a fractal I have no preconceived idea of what I seek to produce. Fractals are more about exploration and discovery. Element by element, through manipulation of multiple and numerous variables, the fractal design is revealed. Each result is unique and beautiful.

I created a content type and deployed it as a feature. It shows up in the root site. I cannot attach it to the Task list in a sub site. I created a console app (code from MS) and tried to add it programatically. The message "The content type is not available in this site" appears. How can I make a content type available to a subsite? I thought it would be available by default to all subsites, especially being in the root. When I ran the console app, I was logged in as the system account on the SP server, so it shouldn't be a permissions thing. The content type has a parent of Workflow Task.
I have been struggling with this for over two weeks.

This is an alternative build system that delegates everything to the make program. All the commands just end up calling make with appropriate arguments. The intention was to allow preexisting packages that used makefiles to be wrapped into Cabal packages. In practice essentially all such packages were converted over to the "Simple" build system instead. Consequently this module is not used much and it certainly only sees cursory maintenance and no testing. Perhaps at some point we should stop pretending that it works.
Uses the parsed command-line from Distribution.Setup in order to build Haskell tools using a backend build system based on make. Obviously we assume that there is a configure script, and that after the ConfigCmd has been run, there is a Makefile. Further assumptions:

We all love the notion of buying low-cost tyres for their vehicles. Needless to say that means, there exists a market for inexpensive auto tyres, and therefore, dealers way too. Many people opt to purchase those that happen to be applied in part by any preceding automobile proprietors. These are generally also known as as 2nd-hands tyres and are available at the very cheap level. These are typically generally shipped in from continental European countries. The most common sort of next-hands tyres that you could place both your hands on, originate from Germany which is regarded as the world's top rated dealer for these people. part worn tyres wholesale
Secondly-palm auto tires are frequently marketed at reduced price. Often they are even distributed at 50% away in comparison to new tyres. The cheap cost is the primary reason the reasons people prefer to buy them. Even though used, they may work even more.

Plea gets Beaumont man probation for injury to a child
A Beaumont man was sentenced to 10 years probation after pleading guilty to injury to a child Monday, April 15.
K.P. Jeanes, a former assistant pastor of the Woodlands Baptist Church, was originally charged with indecency with a child, but after talks with the young victim's family, prosecutors allowed Jeanes to plea to the lesser charge of injury to a child.
The youngster was 9 years old at the time of the offense.
"What the child said was disturbing," said Judge John Stevens after accepting Jeanes' guilty plea. "This man lied when confronted and later admitted to inappropriate touching of the child."
Jeanes' lawyer begged the court for her client not to be given jail time, but Judge Stevens was adamant about putting Jeanes behind bars for the maximum of 180 days under the guilty plea.
"You should've thought about all you had to lose when you crossed the line to harm a child," Stevens said.
A prosecutor familiar with the case said the decision to give Jeanes probation stemmed from keeping the young victim off the stand to avoid reliving the 2006 crime.
"We wanted to hold (Jeanes) accountable, but not traumatize the kid anymore than she has been," the prosecutor said.

Fresh research finds that up to seven million Brits might want to buy an iPhone when it ships - even though the device won't be available in the U.K. until the end of the year.
The research emerges as reports claim Apple is facing challenges finding a network willing to carry the device in Europe, with both Vodafone and Orange variously mooted as most-likely candidates to secure a European deal for the device.
According to research group M:Metrics, pre-launch publicity surrounding the device means that 56 percent of U.K. people and 64 percent of U.S. folk as "aware of the iPhone."
The research also confirms the device should experience strong demand when it first ships in the U.S. on June 29. "14 percent of (U.S. people) who had heard about the iPhone reported they would be highly interested in buying one," M: Metrics claims. That equates to 19 million highly-tempted U.S. consumers.
"This data confirms that the iPhone has sparked the imaginations of consumers and is not merely a topic of conversation among insiders and technology enthusiasts," said Mark Donovan, senior vice president and senior analyst, M:Metrics.
He added that the potentially already converted 19 million U.S. consumers is an impressive figure: "When you consider that the installed base of most high-end devices rarely approaches one million and respondents were informed of the price point as well as of the AT&T exclusive."
AT&T has a five-year exclusive deal to carry the iPhone. According to M:Metrics, the mobile network seems set to attract a new wave of users when the device ships, because, "67 percent of those who were most inclined to purchase an iPhone are subscribers on other carrier networks," the researchers claimed.
In the U.K., 30 percent of mobile phone users - 7 million people - reported strong interest in buying an iPhone.
M: Metrics analyst Paul Goode observed: "We expected that mobile users in the U.K. would be more inclined to buy an expensive device, since smartphones are twice as popular in the U.K. as in the U.S. These figures are very impressive, although respondents in the U.K. were not presented with a launch price or any restriction of mobile phone carrier as in the U.S."
The research also shows that 64 percent of users with a strong interest in investing in the Apple mobile already own an MP3 player, causing the researchers to speculate some consumers will replace their music players with an iPhone.
Despite the good news, the research also revealed that 28 percent of mobile phone users were aware of the iPhone, but unlikely to purchase one.
"While other devices - some of them already on the market - have features equal or better than the iPhone, such as 3G, superior cameras, and the like, the iPhone has been the first mobile device to create widespread consumer excitement around a mobile phone," said Donovan. "This has the potential to increase consumer demand for more expensive, full-featured phones across the board as OEMs and other operators respond to AT&T/Apple's marketing juggernaut."

Just what is the relationship between culture and architects, asks Jay Merrick
I am not a miserablist, nor am I particularly interested in the blue remembered hills of past cultural sentiments. But, in 2012, am I quite alone in feeling puzzled when considering the relationship between culture and architects? How many architects, I wonder, visited the Royal Academy's Bronze show, or the Barbican's Bauhaus exhibition, and felt like they were on parole from the culture of the commercial panopticon?
In the 23rd January edition of The Architects' Journal three subjects leapt out with an instructive dissonance. The most important, and meaningful, concerned the coverage of the death of Isi Metzstein, with Richard MacCormac's recollection of Metzstein's interview for the post of professor at the University of Edinburgh:
Isi Metzstein: 'I have always been a better conscript than a volunteer'
"Mr Metzstein," the vice chancellor began, "you distinguish yourself as a candidate, firstly because you do not appear to have the appropriate qualifications for the post, and secondly because you have not actually applied for it." To which Isi shot back: "I have always been a better conscript than a volunteer."
A few pages further on, an appallingly interesting double-page spread: on the left, in the most repellent, idiotically lush Technicolor, Diller Scofidio + Renfro's scheme for Union Terrace Gardens in Aberdeen. And on the right hand page, an advertisement for TBS Fabrication's laminated lavatory wall panels, showing a cutaway structural graphic of a Spitfire, at the Grosvenor Casino in Stockton-on-Tees. The latter seemed a fine critique of the former. Thus, intellectual brilliance, pixie-shit landscape architecture, and a Spitfire apparently armed with gleaming white pissoirs: our cultural warp and weft.
As were the two quotes in Gillian Darley's review of the Royal Academy's Hawksmoor exhibition. An aged John Summerson had once encouraged her to "feel a Hawksmoor church, embrace it in the mind." And she reported Ian Nairn's even better remark, concerning St Mary Woolnoth: "You don't remember until afterwards how strange the building is … it transcends originality."
This raises the idea of two quite different reactions bound together almost molecularly
And it certainly transcends headings like the one that clarioned critical coverage of the Royal Academy's summer architectural exhibition: Things that make you go 'Oooh!' This raises the idea of two quite different reactions bound together almost molecularly: do you explete an "Ooh!" because you have no idea what confronts you, architecturally or culturally, or because you do?
That question applies, increasingly, to architectural criticism in our newspapers; and Joseph Rywert has been a stalwart on the subject. Reviewing Alexandra Lange's book, Writing About Architecture, he queried her suggestion that blogging, rather than criticism in print, would become the more dominant tool in shaping our environment. "This might," he wrote, "turn out to be a mixed blessing." One could hardly have expected this civil, academically eminent Old Carthusian to have suggested that the blogosphere seems – Tweeted rebellions against over-medallioned dictators aside – a bonfire of pathological inanities.
Rykwert's coverage of the Barbican's Bauhaus show was anything but that; so, too, were James Pallister's deft alerts on supposedly minor subjects such as Eric Ravilious's landscapes, and the new Modernist magazine. And Emily Booth's coverage of the Alexander Brodsky show at the Calvert 22 gallery ensured a place not simply for a legendary Russian architectural outsider, but teased out aspects of the tensions between objects, and humans, in space; a number of Henry Moore's major bronzes, set out in the Gagosian Gallery, generated these same tensions on a monumental scale.
Culture begins, arguably, in the home, and yet homes and houses remained rather marginalised as critical subjects
Culture begins, arguably, in the home, and yet homes and houses remained rather marginalised as critical subjects. In today's housebuilding and regeneration climate, shouldn't the qualities of housing and place, as a subject, be pursued with critical ruthlessness? "England is a mean and petty scrabble of paltry dwellings called "homes", and the Englishman accepts the "hopeless paltriness in his surrounding." DH Lawrence wrote that in 1930.
Meanwhile, as James Pallister noted in April, George Orwell believed that "all culture that is more truly native centres around things, which even when they are communal, are not official." He had football, back gardens and "the nice cup of tea" in mind. Rory Olcayto's fugues on the future of urban conditions carried the idea of the unofficial into a febrile interzone somewhere between criticism and visions of place that recalled a sombre riff in Jack Kerouac's 1949 Road-Log.
"The experience of life is a regular series of deflections that finally results in a circle of despair … one dark haunting thing. To me, 'this thing' is that Shrouded Stranger … our haunted sense of the thing."
Six decades after Kerouac, Rem Koolhaas spoke of "the eerie abstraction of the generic" in relation to urban conditions – and, by association, cultural meanings. How prescient Philip Larkin's 1972 poem, Going Going, seems now: "For the first time I feel somehow / That it isn't going to last, / That before I snuff it, the whole / Boiling will be bricked in / Except for the tourist parts …"
Perhaps architects in search of cultural meaning should not be reading yet another critical analysis of Corb's work
Perhaps architects in search of cultural meaning should not be reading yet another critical analysis of Corb's work. Michel Houellebecq's novel, The Possibility of An Island, or The City and the City, by China Miéville might be more pertinent in 2013. Here's a sample of the latter: "Now there were more foreigners walking on the worn down crosshatched cobbles than Besź locals. The once collapsing Ul Qoma rookeries, crenulated and lumpen-baroque (not that I saw them – I unsaw carefully, but they still registered a little, illicitly, and I remembered the styles from photographs) were renovated, the sites of galleries and .uq startups."
Are architects – to recall Isi Metzstein's one-liner – to be volunteers or conscripts in the great game of culture? How much are they willing to experience and react to?
"It was as though he were in a different world," wrote Arkady and Boris Strugatsky in Stalker. "A million odours cascaded in on him at once – sharp, sweet, metallic, gentle, dangerous ones, as crude as cobblestones, as delicate and complex as watch mechanisms, as huge as a house and as tiny as a dust particle. The air became hard, it developed edges, surfaces and corners, like space was filled with huge stiff balloons, slippery pyramids, gigantic prickly crystals, and he had to push his way through it all … It lasted a second. He opened his eyes and it was gone. It hadn't been a different world – it was this world, turning a new, unknown side to him."
Without this sense of the new, unknown side of people, places and buildings, we can be cultured, but not necessarily involved with our culture – except, of course, when we are on parole from the thing.

Eric Cantor, the Majority Leader of the United States House of Representatives, lost his primary battle to retain his seat to a political newcomer yesterday.
Congressman Cantor, who came into the race with massive campaign funding and the weight of incumbency behind him, lost to Dave Brat, an economics professor at Randolph-Macon College. Brat raised the comparatively scanty sum of $200,000 for the race. In contrast, special interest groups poured money into Cantor's campaign, which spent over $5.4 million. The American Chemistry Council, which represents a group of blue-chip corporations, spent over $300,000 on ads for Cantor by themselves.
It is not often that an incumbent loses. It is also not often when the candidate with the least amount of money — in this case, a great deal less money — wins.
Early news reports seem to be giving the Tea Party movement the credit for Brat's win. It is reported that Brat campaigned as an outsider running against an insider who, according to Brat, was not conservative enough. The fact that the election was a Republican primary instead of a general election makes that plausible.
Brat used high profile endorsements, such as one by radio personality Laura Ingraham, to counter the money factor in the race. He also campaigned against Cantor's support for a more moderate position on immigration.
Apparently, the political deep-thinkers in Washington failed to see this coming. According to the New York Times, the only question along the beltway was how high Cantor's victory margin would be. Congressman Cantor himself seems not to have realized how serious the challenge was until just a short time before the election.
The cherry on top of what must have been a miserable night for Congressman Cantor and his supporters came when a group of pro immigration reform demonstrators burst into the campaign gathering just a few minutes after he had made his concession speech. The irony in that needs no explaining.
What does all this mean in the larger arena?
The deciding factor in the impact this stunning turnover will have on the Republican Party as a whole and, through it, the American political landscape, depends on whether or not it was a fluke or a harbinger. What, if anything, does it say about other races later this year?Congressman Cantor was so sure that he was going to win that he made the mistake of not taking his opponent seriously. He didn't get the news that he was in trouble until just a few weeks before the votes were cast. He walked into the punch with his arms at his side. Hubris beat Representative Eric Cantor every bit as much as Dave Brat did.
His colleagues are now forewarned. One certain effect this election is going to have is that no incumbent will make the mistake of ignoring an underfunded, seemingly insignificant opponent. I doubt very much if we see other races like this one where the incumbent just la-la-las his way through the campaign until the last few weeks.
Will that save them? I would guess that it depends on the district and how blatantly the Congressperson has sold out their constituents to special interests, in particular special interests whose program is anathema to the people they represent.
The Republican voters of Virginia just chose a man as their nominee who doesn't owe the corporatist interests that control their party his soul. In doing so, they tossed out a man who was owned by those interests to the tune of $5.4 million.
Mr Brat's acceptance speech was a rousing statement of voter empowerment. If he makes it past the Democrat in the fall, a question that will likely be resolved by the configuration of the district, we'll get a look at who he is in power.
Will he be able to stay the same guy once he meets all his new best friends and gets a taste of the perks, flattery and pressures of actual political office?
I'm sure that the calls from what was surely a rather flummoxed Republican Party began last night as they moved to pick up the pieces and head toward the general election. The other calls, which are forerunners of the full-bore flattery and stroking that will begin if he wins in November, began right along with them.
Will this election result in at least one independent member of Congress who thinks for himself and does not check with special interests before he wipes his political nose? I hope so.
No matter his politics, that would be a refreshing change.

Almost no Thanksgiving meal is complete without the turkey. In fact, according to the National Turkey Federation, 95 percent of Americans eat turkey at Thanksgiving—that's a lot of birds getting gobbled up in one day.
But before you head to the meat counter, you should know that turkey is not "one size fits all." When it comes to selecting the right turkey for your family's feast, you need to know the lingo.
Here's a breakdown of turkey terms to make decoding those labels a little easier.
- A natural turkey has no artificial ingredients, no added color and is minimally processed.
- An organic turkey is a free-range bird, fed an organic diet, and given no growth hormones or antibiotics.
- Free-range means the bird has been allowed access to the outdoors. An organic bird is always free-range, but a free-range bird is not necessarily organic.
- Frozen poultry has been kept at 0 degrees or below and may need several days to defrost, so plan accordingly. A 16-pound turkey will serve about 10 people and take about 4 days to thaw in the refrigerator.
- Fresh poultry has never been below 26 degrees, so pay close attention to expiration dates and buy no sooner than two days before your holiday meal, unless you plan on freezing the bird at home.
- A basted or self-basted bird has been injected or marinated with a solution of butter, broth, stock or water and spices or other seasonings. The purpose: a moist, juicy bird.
- A hen is a female and a tom is a male turkey. Gender does not affect the tenderness of the bird, only age does.
- Giblets are the gizzard, heart and liver, and can actually be a great addition to your Thanksgiving meal. Cooked, they can add lots of flavor to soups, gravy and stuffing.
- Dark meat comes from active muscles, which store a lot of oxygen like the legs and thighs, whereas white meat comes from well-rested muscles like the breast. Both are delicious and nutritious.
So we've got turkey lingo covered, but what about turkey mathematics? How big of a bird do you need? A turkey calculator eliminates the guesswork. It will even tell you how much stuffing to make. Lastly, it never hurts to have a coupon when purchasing your turkey.

HOUSTON (AP) - Former President George H.W. Bush will spend Christmas in a Houston hospital after developing a fever and weakness following a monthlong, bronchitis-like cough.
Bush's spokesman Jim McGrath said Monday that doctors remain "cautiously optimistic" the 88-year-old former president will recover, but they want to keep him in the hospital.
A hospital spokesman had said last week that doctors expected Bush to be released in time to spend Christmas at home.
McGrath says Bush came down with a fever last week, and doctors are also trying to balance his medications and help him regain strength. McGrath says Bush has largely overcome the painful, lingering cough that initially brought him to Methodist Hospital on Nov. 23.
McGrath says he does not know what caused the fever or the weakness.
