FF, during the Marvel Now! period, was run by Matt Fraction – who also wrote the main Fantastic Four, but FF had a higher critical acclaim. When Fraction left the projects to focus on his indie books like Satellite Sam and Sex Criminals – along with his fan-favourite Marvel title, the series continued for a bit under new writers before undergoing a relaunch like other Marvel NOW! titles, such as Wolverine. However, unlike Wolverine – Fantastic Four did keep the same writer. James Robinson stepped in to handle this title alongside his All New Invaders and the end result is a pretty awesome first issue – that should keep readers hooked with a good look into the future of what we can expect from Marvel’s First Family. Despite the uniform switch, which remains unexplained, the core Fantastic Four cast is the same. We get Mister Fantastic, Invisible Woman, Human Torch and The Thing, and we get an ominous look into what might lie in store for future issues. We’re introduced to the new relaunch via Sue Storm writing a letter, and whilst this book adopts a somber, darker tone than some would like, it allows for a very solid first issue that isn’t clogged down by introducing the characters – because the Fantastic Four are so well known that even the newest Marvel fan will have heard their name and will probably be vaguely familiar with their origin stories. Don’t go in expecting another origin story though, for the Fantastic Four are fully established as Robinson continues some threads from the previous series – but keeps the first issue new reader friendly. Despite the relatively grimdark tone, Robinson manages to remain true to some of the Fantastic Four’s most iconic moments. Everybody is in character – and there’s the all-too familiar sight of the Four charging into battle, with the Thing yelling “It’s Clobberin’ time”. He also makes Sue Storm the point of view character for the reader to follow, and as a result Robinson manages to make the book to play to his strengths. It’s a very solid first issue as a result of this – and it’ll be very interesting to see where things pan out from here. Leonard Kirk handles the artwork and he pulls it off very well. His artwork really fits the Fantastic Four with some stunning pages, the mayhem presented in the fight with Fin Fang Foom being one of the book’s best moments visual wise. One thing’s for sure though it looks like Kirk was the right artist for the job – and it’ll be very interesting to see what he can bring to the table in future issues. Overall though, Fantastic Four #1 is a great first offering, and easily one of the best things to come out of All New Marvel NOW! so far. If you enjoyed Robinson’s Earth 2 over at DC or his recent All New Invaders then this book will be right up your street – but if you’re a fan of the Fantastic Four then you’ll get a kick out of this as well. In fact, you’ll probably enjoy this even if you don’t fall into the above categories – because Robinson is certainly a very solid writer and always manages to impress.

__label__cc	0.708066	0.291934	ENO's 2012-2013 Season Here's what I'm most excited about. Julietta by Martinu is an absolutely glorious score. It's maybe his best work - fizzing with nervous energy, it's a febrile, shifting mental landscape, with stretches of music that are extraordinarily beautiful too. It's not as lush as many of the concertos and smaller pieces, but it is a fascinating work. Yoshi Oida stages Pilgrim's Progress for the first time since 1951. It's Vaughan William's most ambitious score, and perhaps (perhaps) his greatest. It's certainly very beautiful - much of it was recycled into the 5th symphony, his most personal. The Traviata is the ultra stripped down and ultra detailed Konwitschny production. The entire set is one chair. Sounds very interesting to me. Bieito's Carmen - he's always controversial (often to the point of tedium) and occasionally very interesting. Ruxandra Donose as Carmen too. Charpentier's Medea is new to me, so I'll have to check it out. It's the older Charpentier - from the 17th century. Sarah Connolly as Medea. And it's being directed by David McVIcar. Cool. Wozzeck. It's Wozzeck. Hasn't been done in London for a while. A must. Sunken Garden actually sounds quite intriguing from the clips of the composer's I've heard - London hasn't exactly had a great record with contemporary opera in the last couple of years, so lets hope! And Death in Venice. This is an extraordinary opera, Britten's last. One of my favourites, so pared down, so personal, so strange. So glad it's being done. A few other notes: -Queen of the night not yet cast for The Magic Flute. -In that production, gay Don G Duncan Rock will be singing Papageno. He's also Morales in Carmen. -Emilie Renard who is one of my young singers to look out for is playing three small roles in Julietta. -Lucy Crowe is in Barber of Seville, and I've never yet seen her.

__label__cc	0.652739	0.347261	Tag: Epsilon BLOOD STAIN CHILD – Unlocking Electricity One thing Blood Stain Child guitarist Ryu can never be accused of is a lack of creativity. Just like his constantly evolving image – one needs only to glance through promo pictures from the past eleven years for proof – Ryu’s musical vision continues to widen with each album. For the band’s fifth record, Epsilon, he did what nobody expected and added a female lead vocalist to Blood Stain Child’s ranks; his two-part replacement for the departed Sadew. Bassist and original vocalist Ryo is back up front as well, but the present focus is ultimately on Greek singer Sophia, who plays the melodic contrast to his death metal growls. This has added a completely new dimension to the band’s recognizable trance metal sound, raising eyebrows and dropping some jaws as Epsilon continues to circulate. As expected, not everyone has accepted the change with good graces and Sophia has quite naturally been singled out as the cause of the so-called “problem.” She sees no reason to be concerned, however, as her new bandmates would have left her recordings on the cutting room floor had she proven to be incapable of carrying the songs. “I guess you thought much deeper than I did,” Sophia remarks. “Don’t forget I’m a typical Sagittarian, looking for adventure and new experiences. Also initially, Ryu asked me to ‘sing on a few songs,’ so I basically considered it a participation rather than becoming an actual band member. A couple of months later, though, while I had already started working on the songs he’d given me, Sadew left, so the band had no lead singer anymore. That’s when Ryu simply asked me ‘Do you wanna be the lead singer?’ I was like… (pulls a shocked expression). Before I could even answer firmly, he told me ‘Welcome to the band, everybody’s waiting for you in Osaka (laughs).” Continue reading BLOOD STAIN CHILD – Unlocking Electricity Posted on October 16, 2011 October 17, 2011 Author carlCategories The InterviewsTags Blood Stain Child, Deathbie, Epsilon, Final Sky, Hatsune Miku, Imaginary Flying Machines, Metropolice, Mozaiq, Princess Ghibli, Ryo, Ryu, Sadew, Sophia, vocaloids BLOOD STAIN CHILD – Epsilon Five albums old, Japanese melodic cyber-death metal outfit Blood Stain Child have made a habit of overhauling their sound from record to record. The symphonic Euro-metal mess of their 2002 debut, Silence Of Northern Hell, evolved into various forms of Scandinavian worship in the years that followed, chanelling a grittier and altogether fugly Children Of Bodom on Mystic Your Heart in 2003. The band officially hit their stride two years later with Idolator and a trance-laced take on melding classic and new age In Flames, which continued on Mozaiq in 2007, albeit with more focus on electronic elements, female backing vocals, and a new singer in the driver’s seat. Blood Stain Child’s fanbase has grown with them in spite of these changes, but nothing could have prepared folks for the metamorphosis that has resulted in arguably the strongest album of their career. Epsilon sees bassist / original vocalist Ryo back up front, replacing his one-album replacement Sadew, only he now shares duties with Greek female singer Sophia, who has effectively changed the way Blood Stain Child does business. Between the melodic and oft-times pop elements of her voice and pushing mad scientist Aki’s electronica up front, evil genius / guitarist Ryu’s vision of creating something unique have been realized. Call it perplexing and bloody impressive, because Epsilon is one of those albums where steel-chewing metalheads should be screaming bloody murder when confronted with anime inspired techno-pop in the mix, yet it works.

"The humanitarian crisis in this country requires much greater engagement by donors," said Ferdinand Kambere, DRC's Minister for Social Affairs, Humanitarian Action and National Solidarity. In 2009, funds received for the activities planned under Humanitarian Action Plan (HAP) enabled over 1 million people to have access to clean water, almost 3 million to receive food aid, and 80 percent of children in DRC to be vaccinated. If the current trend of low donor funding continues, humanitarian agencies will be unable to provide clean water to 350, 000 people, and an estimated 200,000 children suffering from acute malnutrition may not receive assistance. （Editor：燕勐） UN chief appeals for "new vision" for biodiversity UN chief hails Afghan peace Jirga UN sends 680 more police to Haiti UN Security Council to consult on ROK warship case: president (2) UN Security Council to consult on ROK warship case: president G20 financial leaders meet in S.

__label__cc	0.664537	0.335463	Romantic love is a patriarchal conspiracy, according to new Melissa McCarthy film Like many women between the ages of three and two hundred, my hobbies include breathing, using magnifying mirrors to gain a more intimate perspective on my pores, and falling in desperate, horny love with people who do not want me. I do the latter with particular zeal. Really “appreciate my personality” but “just want to be friends”? Pshyeah, I’ll pick up your dry cleaning. Think I’m “totally beautiful” but “honestly just don’t feel that way”? How about you barely talk to me and I do all your math homework. Want to “learn more about me” but “just happen to prefer thin heterosexual women”? Uh, duh I’ll give you a foot massage and invite you to my parties. What else would I do?! I do not mean that everyone I have feelings for should be ethically obligated to want me back (though that would be convenient) or that my gap teeth are somehow so irresistible that anyone who is not immediately fisting me is defying the laws of physics. I mean that somewhere along the line — somewhere between Disney movies and adolescent lesbian “experiments,” somewhere before the first time a partner hit me but after street harassment got hip — I learned that love meant being constantly unhappy, that sex meant being constantly unhappy, that if I wanted someone, I was going to suffer, and that this was the natural state. Think of all the shit you’re supposed to suffer through to make someone want to fuck you. Make yourself hungry on purpose. Stick a pencil in your eye. Tear the hair from your pussy by its roots. Don’t talk too loud. Don’t eat too much. Don’t slurp your spaghetti. Don’t be vulgar. Don’t be smart. Don’t pee with the door open. Like what your partner likes in bed, unless it involves your anus. Don’t kiss anyone else. Don’t look at anyone else in that specific way. You know the way — that way that makes your partner’s stomach soupy with jealousy. Forgive them when they snap at you. Forgive them when they push you just that one time. Follow them across the country to a place where you have no one to talk to if they push you again. Shrink, retract, don’t go too far, don’t make too much money, don’t laugh too loud, don’t be you. For god’s sake, be anything but you. This is what Melissa McCarthy’s character does at the beginning of Spy, the new Paul Feig secret agent flick that literally everybody but me has written about already. That was my segue. Here’s my thesis. Spy is about a lot of things: Melissa McCarthy being a bad bitch, our collective political anxieties about Bulgaria. But it is also about female talent, and all the tiny, insidious ways we as women are taught to minimize ourselves, the ways we are sabotaged by all the shit that passes as love. Obligatory plot summary (spoiler alert, motherfuckers — it’s about the journey, not the destination): In Spy, Melissa McCarthy plays Susan Cooper, a CIA agent who serves as the loyal in-office sidekick to a dashing male superspy who is also — surprise surprise — a royal douchebag. She literally saves his life on the daily and he repays her by giving her a plastic cupcake on a string. Gosh, that’s enough to turn even me heterosexual! Meanwhile, of course, Susan is actually a wildly talented ass-kicker who could run circles around her douchehat partner if she so chose. Since she is socialized as a woman, however — and thus shares several of my favorite hobbies — Susan is instead so in love with the douchehat she doesn’t realize that he is actually totally threatened by her talent and using her emotionally while sabotaging her career. The American imperialist project eventually taps our protagonist to go out into the field, where she proceeds to kick monumentally hot, super-devious, bitchtastic Eastern European lady ass (which is geopolitically interesting to say the least) and, with the help of her lady pal sidekick, saves the motherfucking day. Here is another thing I love about the movie: It totally centers female relationships. The men are incompetent and/or sexually aggressive douchebags — even the evil male masterminds trading diamonds for support of global terrorism (#notallmen). The women, meanwhile, are gutsy, brainy, harebrained, and wickedly decked out. They scheme schemes, they deal deals, they’re bitches, they’re friends. Spy doesn’t pass the Bechdel test — it blows a raspberry at the Bechdel test and streaks the fuck out buck-naked while lesser films cower in snow pants. There are a lot of cringey moments in the film, but nothing — not even an arms-dealer super-babe pulling a knife out of her own hand and attempting to stab Melissa McCarthy with it, which is not fluid safe — scared me more than the initial images of Susan Cooper deferring to the superdouche. Listening and smiling while he rubs her talent into the ground. Serving him as he disrespects her. Minimizing herself. This scared me so much because I have been that woman. We know — so many of us know — how physical and emotional violence can chip away at us, how we shrink from hands from fists from verbal fists until we are shrinking not only our muscles but ourselves, making ourselves smaller and smaller as someone grows fat off of us in a kind of growing that can never be sated. It is harder to pin down the more subtle ways in which we are taught to minimize ourselves in relationships of all kinds — though particularly if we are women in romantic relationships with men. We do not try out for the debate team because our boyfriends are trying out for the debate team and we do not want to beat them. We do not tell our girlfriends about previous partners because they get nasty when we remind them we have fucked men. We put up with our partners’ biphobia, or racism, or sexism, because they love us and baby, that’s the best you’re gonna get. It’s so hard to pin a good man down these days — if he drinks too much occasionally and the sex doesn’t always feel consensual, remember the 401k. There is a difference between violence and small sleights that accumulate. But the two are next door neighbors, the latter on a spectrum with the former — bus stops on the way to abuse. My experiences of violence in love have taught me not that I got unlucky and the way we’ve been taught to love is otherwise good, but that there is something deeply, fundamentally flawed in a rhetoric of romance that teaches us to make ourselves smaller so our partners can feel big. Of course, the world is hard and our loves, like everything else, operate within constraints. There are a lot of reasons we stay in relationships that harm us. Anyone who has ever been asked, with care that feels more like an accusation, “Why don’t you just leave?” knows how hard it really is. We stay for material necessity, for threat of violence, for the children, because the person mistreating us needs our care, we stay because they have become so fundamental to our identities that if we leave we will not know who we are. We do what we need to do, and this too is dignity. But Internet, you listen to me right now: I am going to be a fucking Susan Cooper. I am going to be Susan Cooper because there are people out there who think my g-spot jokes are sexy, and don’t want me to stop telling them; and lovers who would, when I have to work rather than go down on them, kiss my shoulder and make me tea. I am going to be Susan Cooper because the world is better off, and the people I love are better off, when I am at my best and fiercest. Because often, those lovers who would debilitate us in their search for wholeness are themselves debilitated, fragmented, by the same ideologies that motivate them to use us. Because it is a great act of love to work on the systems that make it hard for us to love each other in the first place. Susan Cooper used her talent to stop a bombing, shore up the security state, and save lives from a mixture of ideology and greed. We don’t need bombs as metaphors for the things that kill us. The emergency is now and here. It is the structural and ideological factors — unlivable minimum wage and unjust immigration laws, police brutality and unavailable abortion, and actual, physical bombs — that prevent us from being all the awesome things we could be. Each second with someone who tells us to step aside so they can get ahead, rather than stepping ahead with us, is a small tragedy. Anyone to whom you give your time and love should make you feel like the hottest shit on planet Earth. Because you are a superhero. You are a miraculous collection of bones and joints and blood, of thoughts and hunches, absolutely unprecedented, utterly unique. If we are going to change the shitshow that is this world, we need to start ass-kicking.

Apollos were sold in Hollywood and elsewhere to celebrities and entertainers, business leaders and professionals. Only 88 of these high-performance exotics were ever made. The Apollo Owners Registry has chosen the Concorso Italiano to commemorate this milestone, with an addition to an excellent display of Apollos for enthusiasts to enjoy. The tribute will continue on Saturday, August 17th as the cars assemble again for a Concorso Italiano-produced parade through downtown Monterey, Cannery Row and along Highway 1.

__label__wiki	0.500257	0.500257	Fiction as a Mirror Posted by Lise in ebooks, writing on Apr 20, 2015 As crime writers we often get our ideas from the news. Remember newspapers? You still read them, I hope. Where else can you find in-depth stories about the world, where you live locally or the wide world beyond your circle? Sometimes as a writer you don’t know where your ideas come from exactly, they just pop out of the ether or the news cycle, and percolate in your mind. That was the way it worked for me when I wrote a book about heroin, sex trafficking, and TV news. I majored in broadcast news in college and although I didn’t work in the field I am an avid observer — not that difficult in this day of 24-hour news. Although sex workers and drugs may seem like dark subjects, and they are, I made the center of my story a funny, struggling young woman, very much a career girl of today. I wanted to write about an ethical but hapless television reporter whose ambition to get away from her ex-husband, now her boss, leads her into trouble. That novel, Jump Cut, reference to a ‘jumpy’ editing transition, was published in 2011. As writers we often are immersed in our subject but then we write the book and go on our merry way, writing on some other topic. So when this story about the new heroin problem in the US popped up on the New York Times I stopped. And read it. All the way to the end. “So we are at a strange new place. We enjoy blissfully low crime rates, yet every year the drug-overdose toll grows. People from the most privileged groups in one of the wealthiest countries in the world have been getting hooked and dying in almost epidemic numbers from substances meant to numb pain. Street crime is no longer the clearest barometer of our drug problem; corpses are.” Read the NY Times piece here. The article is about the dramatic increase in suburban heroin addiction in the least likely places, and the new distribution strategies Mexican growers are using, without the big cartels. In Jump Cut three prostitutes overdose on tainted Mexican heroin in Seattle. They are Russian-speaking women (how they arrived in the U.S. is part of the story.) Unlike the Times story they aren’t suburban teenagers who are replacing their Oxy addiction with cheaper heroin, but they are addicts. Their story is the catalyst for Jump Cut. Reporter Mimi Raynard has her own journey first, bungling their news story, looking for a new job, ultimately on her own except for the help of narcotics detective Shad Mulgrew. They both have to redeem themselves and solve this triple homicide. The events in this Seattle story are fictional. But heroin addiction and human trafficking are still problems in this country and around the world. For research I didn’t, as one fellow writer suggested, try heroin. I did a ride-along with the Seattle narcotics detectives — great guys in a brutal business. I interviewed them and watched them do a take-down of a drug buy at a suburban shopping mall parking lot. By the time I wrote this novel heroin had ceased to be a huge epidemic in Seattle. But it didn’t just stop being a problem. It moved somewhere else, with new victims, new dealers, new addicts. But there is hope. We could learn a lot from Portsmouth, Ohio. Some places have gained ground on the epidemic. Portsmouth, Ohio, was among the first to see a generation addicted, and pill mills — pain clinics where doctors prescribed pills for cash and without a proper diagnosis — were virtually invented there. Portsmouth, like a junkie who has hit rock bottom, has found within it a spirit of self-reliance that has helped kindle a culture of recovery. The town shuttered the pill mills. Narcotics Anonymous meetings are now everywhere; recovering addicts are studying to be counselors. And after years of watching jobs go abroad, in 2009 townspeople stepped in to save one of Portsmouth’s last factories — a shoelace manufacturer, which now exports shoelaces to China, Mexico and Taiwan. Like Portsmouth, we need to take accountability for our own wellness. There is a time and a place for pain pills, of course. But we need to question the drugs marketed to us, depend less on pills as solutions and stop demanding that doctors magically fix us. It will then matter less what new product a drug company — or the drug underworld — devises. Read more about Jump Cut here. Download a free sample on Amazon.	cc/2022-05/en_middle_0039.json.gz/line79
__label__wiki	0.708681	0.708681	Home BANDS LOATHE LOATHE written by Gui Pepe I Let It In And It Took Everything: A MONSTER ALBUM THAT SHOWS MANY DIFFERENT FACETTES Loathe have been making waves in the British underground heavy music scene since their inception in 2014. Two Eps and one full-length debut album have already put them on the map and the band has already been nominated for Best New Band at the Metal Hammer Golden Gods and Best UK Breakthrough Band in the Heavy Music Awards. Their intense, visceral multi-me-dia live show extravaganza has marked them out as a band who have ambitions far beyond that of their peers and now, with the release of their second full length album, I Let It In and It Took Everything, those ambitions are beginning to be realised. viagra reseptfritt https://www.euro2000.org/kjope-viagra-online/ kamagra norge https://www.euro2000.org/kjope-kamagra-online/ Debut full-length The Cold Sun was a heady hybrid of meaty down-tuned riffs, lacerating screams and pile-driving rhythms. I Let It In and It Took Everything retains those elements, albeit de-livered with a searing potency and sharpened focus that bests its predecessor in almost every conceivable way. Rather than existing within one style or taking one approach, Loathe pepper their music with a range of influences and musical motifs that move fluidly and give the Liverpool quintet a dynamism that was merely hinted at before. Their palette has widened significantly and surprises are plentiful; shimmering guitars, layered synths, unhinged guitar effects, a stronger emphasis on ethereal clean vocals and even elements that echo the sheer sonic brutality that epitomises black metal. It all adds up to a release that is dynamic in extremis and yet remarkably cohesive as guitarist Erik Bickerstaffe attests. ‘I always want Loathe to be eclectic, a monster with many different faces but to make sure that it all sits in the same universe as well.’ A myriad of different influences are being thrown into the Loathe melting pot, some that people might expect and others that would likely seem inconceivable for a band with such an acerbic sound. Both Radiohead and The 1975 are cornerstones in the approach Loathe take with their music, partly in a sonic sense but mainly in terms of being a band who strive to do whatever they want and cultivate a fan base that will follow them down some deep, experimental rabbit holes. ‘We did a lot of what we wanted to do on The Cold Sun but there were some instruments that weren’t at our disposal,’ Erik continues. ‘But I feel like we’ve ventured into different areas with this one. There’s so much more singing and there’s much more what I would call ‘traditional’ song-writing. We never want to abandon the crazy, sporadic metal side of the band, we just want all these other ideas to take root so that it furthers the lore of the band. I want us to be seen as this huge machine that can do whatever it needs or wants essentially.’ And then there are specific influences that stem from outside of music as well; the soundtrack to 2001’s survival horror video game Silent Hill 2, the ominous, disturbing aura created by 2019’s most divisive film Joker or the entire works of serial brain scrambler David Lynch. That sense of distressing, Lynchian esotericism is the territory Loathe are intent on occupying, a world where nothing is quite as it seems, curiosity is rewarded and nothing is laid out in black and white. It’s not the easiest path to take, but then few paths worth taking are the easiest to traverse, an attitude boldly summed up in that arcane title, I Let It In and It Took Everything. ‘The idea of what we are doing and the recording of the album is ‘it’’ Erik explains. ‘We let in the idea of being in this band, and it took everything from us. Without trying to make it sound like a sob story, we needed to build ourselves up again in order to make this record.’ The likes of Aggressive Evolution and New Faces in the Dark will be familiar to those already acquainted with the band’s dizzying hybrid of industrial bluster and hardcore energy. But the process of re-building themselves really starts to show itself on the expansive, lush instrumentation of Two-Way Mirror or A Sad Cartoon, songs that feel like a new string to add to Loathe’s burgeoning bow. Red Room is a short, sharp burst of adrenalized noise-core whilst Heavy is the Head That Falls with the Weight of a Thou-sand Thoughts features an abrasive incandescent performance from vocalist Kadeem France that has to be heard to be believed. It seems Loathe’s desire to never be pigeon-holed is as strong as it’s ever been. I Let It In and It Took Everything opens up Loathe’s horizons and proves that they can sound however they want to sound. ‘We’re not here to add to someone else’s legacy,’ says Erik. ‘We’re trying to create our own.’ Gui Pepe FINALISTS REVEALED FOR THE 15TH ANNUAL AUSTRALIAN MUSIC PRIZE GLITORIS ANNOUNCE 16-DATE AUSTRALIAN NATIONAL TOUR New Single ‘Slut Power’ Out Friday 14th February THE CLOCKWORKS We The Revelry debut with single “(I WANNA...

Despite the fact that Kohli has neglected to make the 50 years, Kohli has ascended to second place after Rahul Dravid in the rundown of Indian batsmen who scored the most keeps running in England. Previous England chief Michael Vaughan has portrayed Virat Kohli as the most noticeably awful commander in the matter of survey. This is because of the wrong choices made by Kohli always. Kohli lost his two surveys inside 12 overs amid the second innings. In the start of the second innings, Kohli looked for a survey for Keaton Jennings. Obviously in Replied that the ball was going off the stump, because of this, Jennings was not given a result and this audit of Virat went pointless. After this, the second survey was taken by Captain Kohli on the last wad of the twelfth over and this audit was likewise pointless. The umpire dismissed the interest of Jadeja’s ball going off Elister Cook’s foot. Kohli took an audit and his survey turned sour as well. Taking a gander at Kohli’s choice, previous England chief Vaughan tweeted that Kohli is the best batsman on the planet, yet his comprehension of the survey is most exceedingly bad.

__label__cc	0.640855	0.359145	UK – Cohabitants should have scope for financial redress in the event of a relationship breakdown, warns Law Society NW ENGLAND – Councils’ foster carer recruitment drive garners more than 3,000 responses ENGLAND – Kent children services ‘making progress’, report finds Filed under Family Law (Public) Kent County Council (KCC) is making “significant progress” in improving its heavily criticised children’s services, a report has found. An Ofsted inspection last November concluded children had been left at risk of significant harm by inadequate services in almost every area. In response, the authority drew up an action plan to address the failings. A council report said there had been a “successful transformation” but there was still “considerable work to do”. Following last year’s unannounced inspection, the council apologised and recruited a special team of 50 social workers at a cost of £2m to address the failings. ‘Low point’ Jenny Whittle, cabinet member for specialist children’s services, said: “We had social workers with huge case loads, we had a significant number of vacancies and children were waiting too long to be allocated a social worker. “We did start from a low point but the issue was how quickly we could achieve that turnaround and I think we’ve done it very quickly.” Ms Whittle said the priority now was to support struggling families in order to reduce the number of children being taken into care. Councillor Gordon Cowan, the leader of the opposition Labour group, said it was an “easy task” to allocate cases to social workers but greater challenges lay ahead. “You still have to place those children in care and you have got to make sure that once in care, the numbers can come down realistically,” he said. “I have my doubts that will be the case just by pumping money in.” The progress report will be considered by councillors on Wednesday.

He has always been a little fucker, a hot-cold kind of cat. He’s like most people, I suppose, totally two-faced. I shove Putin off the window-seat and, sucking my own blood, continue my surveillance because there’s sod-all else to do, in these lockdown days. Number eight’s granny has escaped again; she’s trotting back to her own house, probably, but her son-in-law trails behind her, letting her stretch a bit, I suppose, before dragging her back to her cocoon. This granny smiles a lot and I like that. I mean, she can’t have much to be thrilled about, being gaga and widowed and what-not. I can never understand how married people get through the day-to-day lunacy of being together; she is probably rejoicing that her husband is gone. Still, anyone over fifty who manages to smile has saintliness inside them, if you ask me. The policeman from number four is out now, talking to Granny and her SIL, and he’s waving his arms about, not social-distancing at all and, as a frontline worker, he should know better. His name is Clarence Whitby-Walks, I shit you not. And, when off duty, Clarence likes to dress like the stars. He does Dolly Parton – so frickin’ obvious! – and Marilyn Monroe and Charlie Chaplin. I have to say, he does look like them – a bit – but he’s just so creepy. A policeman in lipstick. Well, you know, I just can’t. I open the window a crack because Clarence and the SIL are shouting at each other now. Clarence has the granny by the arm, steering her towards her cocoon – two metres apart, moron! – and the SIL pulls his MIL by her other arm, and now there’s an epic push-me-pull-you going on. The granny has started cackling like a loon, but the men are blueing up the air with their bollix this and fuckwit that, because each of them wants to win. Next thing Granny stumbles on the kerb and over she topples, and the two men let go of her and, in a sort of mad slow-quick-slow movement, she hits the footpath and clunk goes her head. ‘Yowch,’ I say, and my heart is battering in my chest so hard I think it will pop into my throat. Putin jumps onto the window-seat again, startling me, and I stroke his grey back and we watch the scene before us, like a pair of gladiators at the Colosseum. Clarence starts backing away now and he’s shaking his head; the SIL is kneeling by his MIL, crying, ‘Oh God, oh Jesus’, and my nose fills with the sweetness of lemon hand-sanitiser because his cries remind me of the way our church smells these days. The granny’s blood is making a black puddle on the cement and the SIL is crouched over her, mithering like a baby, probably thinking about the fact that his wife is going to murder him because of what he’s done to her mother, and Clarence has disappeared inside his own house and shut the door. Putin flips over onto his back so that I will scratch his belly and I dig my nails in as much as he’ll allow and I croon, ‘Good puss, great puss’ and, when I look out the window again, the SIL is gone and the granny is just lying there, a small smile on her lovely old face.

__label__wiki	0.990535	0.990535	Last Updated: Tuesday, 6 November 2007, 19:27 GMT Cameron calls Brown a 'weak' PM Mr Cameron said many policies had been 'recycled' Conservative leader David Cameron has said the Queen's Speech shows Prime Minister Gordon Brown is "weak" and cannot be the "change Britain needs". "When it comes to real substantive change... (the PM) is not capable of offering anything new," he told MPs. He said some bills had been "recycled" and others proposed by his own party. He also warned against pushing party funding proposals through, saying people would see it as an attempt to "fix" the next election's outcome. 'Lack of vision' In his response to the Queen's Speech in the Commons, Mr Cameron said: "Say what you like about Tony Blair, at least he was decisive. "Isn't the only change we've had is to swap a strong prime minister for a weak one? The difference between his policy and our policy is that we thought of it and he stole it "Mr Speaker, this lack of vision, this weakness wouldn't matter so much if they were halfway competent. "But this is a government that is letting 2,000 prisoners out of jail early every month, this is a government that allowed 8,000 people to die from hospital infections, this is a government that somehow lost track of 300,000 migrants inside a week." The Conservative leader said some proposals, like the Climate Change Bill, had come from the Tories and said others, like the Crossrail Bill, had been "recycled". Speaker intervenes He said the Conservatives would continue to push for a referendum on the EU reform treaty, as well as giving MPs representing English seats the "decisive say" on matters affecting only English constituencies. On the counter-terrorism bill, he said the Conservatives would press the government to allow intercept evidence to be used in court and for a "proper" border force. But he said state funding for political parties could not be justified without caps on all donations - including those from trade unions, something strongly opposed by the Labour Party. Mr Brown said Mr Cameron was good on jokes, bad on policy "What I fear we are likely to see is a one-sided bill. I have to say to the prime minister, people will conclude, if that happens, having put off the election once, he's now trying to fix its outcome," Mr Cameron said. Speaker Michael Martin stepped in to calm MPs down, as Mr Cameron challenged the prime minister to say whether he had stolen Tory proposals to raise inheritance tax thresholds - the policy credited with the Conservatives' recent revival in the opinion polls. He asked Mr Brown to "look me in the eye" and say he was planning to reform inheritance tax before the announcement at the Conservative Party conference. Mr Brown replied: "the answer is 'yes'. Unequivocally, yes," adding "all the records will show it, under whatever rules they are released". 'Deep clean' Mr Brown said the difference was that the Tory policy would benefit the rich more, Mr Cameron replied: "The difference between his policy and our policy is that we thought of it and he stole it." He also criticised the government's plans to "deep clean" hospital wards as a "complete shambles" and said ministers were "slamming on the brakes" on the City Academies programme. He questioned Mr Brown's conference speech pledge for "British jobs for British workers", saying it would be illegal under EU law and said there would be nothing to stop Polish or Italian workers living in Britain applying for the jobs themselves. The leader of the opposition flunked the test when it came to his Clause Four moment on grammar schools In a reference to Mr Brown's decision not to call an early election, Mr Cameron said: "He knows how to talk about change. But the trouble is he can't deliver change. That is what the whole country discovered this autumn. "Yes, he can do the gestures. He can wear the blue tie. He can speak in front of the blue background. He can even get Lady Thatcher round for tea. But when it comes to real, substantive change, this prime minister is not capable of offering anything new." In response Mr Brown said the Tory leader was good on jokes, but bad on policy, accusing the opposition of "spending promises that cannot be met" and of risking economic stability. He said on Europe, tax, spending and education Mr Cameron had "failed to face up to the big challenges ahead". And he called on the Conservatives to back government education policies, saying: "Why can't they give full support to a minimum one day a week training for 16 to 18 year olds in work?"

The 28-year-old Australian beat Graeme Dott 18-13 early on Tuesday morning. He hails from Melbourne, but moved to Cambridge in 2004 where he practices alongside Perry, the world number 12. He told BBC Radio Cambridgeshire: "Joe Perry is a great practice partner and a great friend, and I wouldn't have got to where I am without Joe." Robertson moved to Cambridge after making contact with billiards star Phil Mumford who offered him the chance to move into his house in the city. Robertson has practiced alongside Perry since 2004 He initially played with Perry at the Cambridge Snooker Centre, but the pair switched to Willie Thorne's Snooker and Sporting Club in 2008. Many of the club's members made their way to Sheffield to lend their support and WT's Dan Lewis has said everyone associated with the club is delighted. "It couldn't be better for the town or snooker in general, the moment he played his last shot I was straight on the phone, sending him a text," said Lewis. "He's been so much more relaxed recently and that's why he's become even more successful." Robertson is awaiting the birth of his first child and has flown out to Norway to be with his girlfriend Mille. 606: DEBATE I have got to admit I never thought that he would do it but well done Neil Robertson Steveo77 He plans to continue living in Cambridge with his new family and has said a big night out is planned for when he is next back in East Anglia. "A lot of the boys from the club came up and that was fantastic as they've been so good for me," said Robertson. "I can't wait to get back to Cambridge and share the success with all the guys back then." While his latest success is still yet to sink in, Robertson has said his next aim is to claim victory at the UK Championships and the Masters. "It's the fifth consecutive calendar year I've won a tournament so I've proven to be one of the more consistent players on the circuit," he said. "I need to reset my goals and practice even harder, because I'm going to be a really big scalp now."

Whether you are a pro player or a casual Dota 2 fan, you probably want to gain as much MMR as possible. Playing pub games can be annoying, but it is an excellent way of testing your skills. Depending on your skill bracket, you may have the chance to go up against some of the best players in the world. In order to gain as much MMR as possible, some people prefer to pick the best heroes in the meta. Needless to say, most Dota 2 players focus on the mid lane and safe lane because they think these two lanes will give them a higher chance of winning. This may be true up to a point, but it doesn’t mean there aren’t other positions that are worth it. Besides the hottest heroes in the current meta, there are many other top-rated heroes that you can pick from in Pubs, and one of them is Warlock. This is often a hero that people forget about because he doesn’t have the most exciting set of skills. However, he can be played as a mid laner and support, which makes him versatile. With that being said, here are some of the reasons why this hero can do wonders in pubs. Warlock is one of the best lane supports One of the first and most important things you have to keep in mind about Warlock is that this hero is amazing lane support. Due to the fact that he can heal and harass the enemy hero at any given time makes him an excellent option for heroes, such as Anti-Mage, Phantom Assassin, and other fragile carries. Even though the hero needs to gain at least a couple of levels in order to be more dangerous, he can be useful even if he doesn’t have level six. In other words, if you play pubs and one of your teammates picks a late-game monster, getting Warlock is usually a good idea. He may not be the most interesting hero to play, but he is useful in many scenarios. Warlock as a mid laner Although Warlock is a popular support hero who can do wonders in some situations, he is also an excellent mid laner. Due to the fact that he can heal himself, Warlock is capable of laning against much more dangerous heroes. Needless to say, he can also be really dangerous, especially when he hits level six. Speaking of the devil, level six is essential for this hero because he gets the chance to use his ultimate. Although some people underestimate it, Chaotic Offering can make a huge difference at any stage of the game. Some Dota 2 players think that the golems don’t do damage, but if you give them enough time, they can be a nightmare to deal with. Since Warlock is not a physical damage dealer, his purpose in the mid lane is to gain levels and help his team push as fast as possible. To do that, the hero needs to purchase items, such as Pipe of Insight, Guardian Greaves, and more. They would allow him and his team to participate in team fights and use Warlock’s ultimate to push pressure on the enemy team. In other words, Warlock is not a good hero to use as a core if your team’s carry is a hero, such as Anti-Mage or another late-game monster. Although Warlock is powerful, he is nowhere near as good in the late game as he is early on. That’s why you should try to finish the game as fast as possible. Warlock pairs well with burst damage heroes Besides his heal and ultimate, people forget that Warlock has one potent spell in his arsenal called Fatal Bounds. When used, he can basically do damage to several units by damaging just one of them. This might not seem like a big deal, but it can do wonders in team fights, especially if he manages to “catch” several heroes with his spell. Besides working well alongside his ultimate, Warlock’s Fatal Bonds are highly effective when paired with heroes that do a lot of burst damage. One of the good examples is Lina because Laguna Blade is one of the highest single-target damage spells in the game. Apart from heroes that do burst, Warlock can also work well with heroes that have mass AoE damage abilities. The first name that comes to mind is Invoker and his Chaos Meteor, but there are all sorts of other options, such as Tinker and Zeus. Unfortunately, all of those heroes are popular mid laners, which means that Warlock has to be played as support. If we have to sum up, Warlock is one of the hidden gems in Dota 2 when it comes down to MMR. The fact that he is easy to play makes him a solid pick in every skill bracket. He’s useful early on and during the late game, even though he can’t solely determine the outcome of a given team fight. The good news is Warlock works well in many combinations and metas. Be sure to talk with your teammates before picking him; because it’s always important to pick heroes that work well together.

Blake are taking on a popular fan request, a real favorite from their childhoods that was a blockbuster when it was released. The boys are getting their asses to Mars this week as they cover the Arnold Schwarzenegger epic, Total Recall, from 1990! Blake and Dion jump right into it, revisiting this classic and discuss how happy they are that this movie still holds up. They compare the finished version to the original Philip K. Dick short story We Can Remember It For You Wholesale as well as the differences within the novelization, and explain the long process of getting this from the page to the screen. They unpack the massive Practical Effects in all their splendor, something that probably will never be seen in a Hollywood film like this again- along with a whole lot more. So come on down and check out another really late night meditation in an all new episode of Saturday Night Movie Sleepovers ! *During the podcast, actor Michael Champion was mentioned as perhaps the villain in the 1991 film The Hard Way, when it was in fact the great Stephen Lang. Check out the original theatrical teaser trailer to Total Recall! Watch the making of titled, Imagining Total Recall! Take look at these rare, behind the scenes! Here’s a great little featurette about the miniature work from Total Recall! Last but not least, have a look at this Special Effects Featurette that explains the Skeleton Scene, among others! http://media.blubrry.com/saturday_night_movie/p/www.saturdaysleepovers.podwits.com/podcasts/SNMS_Total_Recall.mp3 Category: Action, Adventure, Books, Classic, Drama, Fantasy, Sci Fi, Thriller \| 1 Comment on Total Recall ,1990 Blade Runner, 1982 Hello and welcome to another episode of Saturday Night Movie Sleepovers! The boys are back and taking on one of the most iconic Sci-Fi movies of all time, one that is still lauded and debated 35 years after it was first released. J. Blake and Dion Baia are chatting about the Future Noir classic, Ridley Scott‘s Blade Runner, from 1982. The fellas are probably tackling their biggest topic to date, meaning with arguably 5-8 versions of the film, entire books written about the movie, and even a 3 and a half-hour documentary on the subject- there seemed to be a lot to unpack and get into. Applying the SNMS method, Dion and Blake decided to watch the original 1982 International Cut of the film (which was the version subsequently released on home video and laserdisc), as well as read the original source novel, Do Android Dream of Electric Sheep? by Science Fiction legend Philip K. Dick. Also for reference, they screened the little seen 1982 Workprint version which was released in the massive 2007 boxset. The boys compare the film(s) to the book and discuss the differences that were dropped or added, and lay out a sizable portion of novel’s subplots like the Empathy Boxes and the religion Mercerism that were eliminated to condense the story to fit into a two-hour feature film. They get into a very in-depth, semi-intellectual conversation about the moral questions posed within the book and film, as well as how the movie’s title came to be. Delving probably into their most ‘meta’ discussion on the podcast to date, they highlight the ethical and fundamental issues raised within the story, as well as their own personal feelings regarding these huge topics. So, how different is the original 1968 book to the 1982 version that was released in theaters? What about the various versions that have come out in the years since and the subtle differences in each? And what about the notorious and highly polarizing “voiceover” track by Harrison Ford that was dropped in the later cuts of the film, and the reasons why it was included and then excluded in subsequent releases? And the biggest question for Blade Runner and Do Android Dream of Electric Sheeps? fans: is Rick Deckard an ‘Andy‘ or Replicant? Well, you better grab all your Poopsheets, your Voigt-Kampff Empathy Test kits and dial your mood organs to the correct settings, because the lads are taking you for a ride in their Spinners, in this all new edition of Saturday Night Movie Sleepovers! Check out the original 1982 trailer for the film! Have a look at all the deleted, alternate and extended scenes from Blade Runner!

This week J. Blake and Dion Baia are celebrating their 50th podcast (well, sort of) and what better way than to tackle a movie that has become an absolute classic in the annals of 80’s fantasy films. In the crosshairs this week is the sleepover classic, The NeverEnding Story, from 1984. Dion and Blake jump head-on into this very nuanced, multi-layered adventure, trying to psycho-analyze this “children’s movie”, which has themes and metaphors textured within that one wouldn’t really think would be included in what was again purported to be a “children’s film” ; but heck, this was the 80s! Regardless the boys delve right in, discussing the original novel and the differences from page to screen, that eventually made author Michael Ende take his name off the feature film. They also speak about German Cinema in general, and as this was the product of West Germany, NeverEnding Story became the biggest film outside of the United States and the U.S.S.R. upon release. The fellas also chat about the blossoming technology of ‘green-screening’, and the major differences between practical effects (which were utilized in this production), versus the upcoming CGI revolution which was literally around the corner. So to the big question: how does the film hold up today? AND, is it as messed up as we all remember? What was the German’s plan to make sure this was a hit with International audiences? What role did Steven Spielberg have in the film’s production? And what surprising element was NOT in the original German cut, which actually became one of the most enduring aspects of the English-speaking version? Well grab your popcorn and soda, sit back and put your feet up and come celebrate with Blake and Dion as they answer all your questions, and unveil the 50 edition of Saturday Night Movie Sleepovers! Here’s the original International theatrical trailer for the film! Have a look at the original German Trailer! Check out the Music video by Limahl for NeverEnding Story. Mentioned in the cast, take a look at this rare 1984 German Documentary on the film!

J. Blake and Dion Baia are both digging back into their childhoods and taking on the legend of the Sasquatch. Instead of looking at him as a terrible monster, they pick a film that makes everyone wish they could have a big, cuddly bigfoot of their very own… 1987’s Harry and the Hendersons. Dion and Blake discuss the mythology of the creature, particularly as it relates to cinema and the small screen of the 1970’s-80’s. They get into the mixed reviews that this feel-good film received upon its initial release, and frankly don’t hold back their opinions regarding the matter. They chat about the overall themes, and how it related then (and now) to the social and ecological movements of the era. They also segue to the other elephant in the room, the genius that is SFX pioneer Rick Baker and his body of work, and their mutual disgust that he announced earlier this year that he is retiring because…wait for it… there is not enough work out there because of the use of CGI today in moviemaking. And again, the lads don’t hold back on their thoughts on the subject. So get your tent, outdoor gear, and a pair of binoculars because we’re off looking for Sasquatch and Yeti’s in this weeks all new episode of Saturday Night Movie Sleepovers! Listen to the complete novelization here, courtesy of Audiobooks for the Damned!

This week, Dion Baia and J. Blake take on the 1982 horror classic, John Carpenter’s The Thing. The boy’s knowledge and expertise are put to task, disseminating all the elements that were brought together in remaking an already established cult classic. How the heck did this movie flop upon its intital release and be completely panned by critics and the film community alike? How do the SFX hold up to the CGI we are so familiar with today? How did the 2011 prequel/remake and 2002 PS2 video game hold up verse Carpenter’s 1982 vision? Have the boys actually solved the ending? And… what the heck were the guys thinking trying to do their own 3D experience in these cold winter months with their latest screening? Well strap yourselves onto your couch (quite literally) for this thrilling and exciting installment of Saturday Night Movie Sleepovers! (Go have a gander at this neat wikia page so you can completely go in-depth and geek out on John Carpenter’s The Thing!) (Have a look at this great topical claymation mash-up that was done, mixing The Thing and Disney’s Frozen.) (Here are some deleted scenes from the film, and click here for stills for some of the lost scenes.) (Take a peek at this vintage behind-the-scenes featurette.)

This underrated, low-budget post-apocalyptic/technological/CHUD-style tale explores themes probed 7 years later in the highly popular 1999 film The Matrix (though the viewpoints of the filmmakers couldn’t be more carbon opposite), and Mindwrap seems to be an amalgam of some of the best sci-fi films out there, e.g. The Time Machine, Total Recall, Blade Runner and THX 1138. So please have a listen and enjoy us waxing over a true forgotten sci-fi and Bruce Campbell classic! (There in fact is an out of print, region free remastered Blu Ray edition put out by Twilight Time Studios, which can be found on Amazon.) (Dion misspoke in the cast when he referred to Philip K. Dick‘s iconic short story We Can Remember it For You Wholesale being linked to Blade Runner, when he actually meant Total Recall. He does tend to get a tad over-zealous at times.) http://media.blubrry.com/saturday_night_movie/p/www.saturdaysleepovers.podwits.com/podcasts/mindwarp.mp3 Category: Action, Adventure, Fantasy, Sci Fi \| 4 Comments on “Mindwarp,” 1992	cc/2022-05/en_middle_0039.json.gz/line97

ACCI in a press release on Tuesday said that following the spread of Coronavirus (COVID-19) worldwide, the regional countries have taken preventive measures at transit and trade crossings to prevent the spread of the virus. The Torkham crossing, one of Afghanistan’s major trade and transit crossings, has recently been closed for preventive measures against the Corona virus, the press release said. According to the press release, halting transit supplies at the Torkham Pass will cause damage to Afghan and Pakistani traders and facilitating the trade affairs in these circumstances can help the people of Afghanistan in taking preventive health measures. ACCI has called on Pakistani Chambers of Commerce and Industry, the Afghan political representation in Pakistan and the Ministry of Industry and Commerce to come up with a comprehensive mechanism to address the problem. 24 / March 2020	cc/2022-05/en_middle_0039.json.gz/line107
__label__cc	0.532047	0.467953	The Best Experience With Windows 8 Tablets And Hybrids (Part 1) We test nine new touchscreen devices to see which one provides for using Windows 8 The tiles on the Windows 8 Start screen are designed to be prodded with a finger, rather than clicked with a mouse, so you’ll get the most from the OS if you use a touchscreen device. Windows 8 tablets, unlike Android and Apple ones, are designed for more than just surfing and viewing, and often come with a keyboard either included, or as an optional extra. A hybrid is a cross between a tablet and a laptop: like a laptop, its screen and keyboard are separated by a hinge, but this is flexible enough to fold back on itself, tucking away the keyboard to leave a tablet-like screen. We’ve looked at six hybrids and three tablets to see which provides the best touchscreen Windows 8 experience. We tested how fast each device running a full version of Windows 8 (all the hybrids and one tablet) performed a series of Windows tasks, then compared it with a 3.4GHz Intel Core i7-2600 desktop PC with 4GB of memory and a benchmark score of 1. The better a device performed, the higher it scored. Because two of the tablets use the cut-down Windows 8 RT, and don’t run standard Windows programs, they couldn’t run the benchmark software, so couldn’t be compared to the other devices. We also looked at the screens’ brightness and contrast (measured in cd/m2), and testes battery life by looping a video and timing how long it took to drain the battery from a full charge. Lenovo ideapad yoga 13: $1,499.99 While other hybrid manufactures have gone to town with intricate sliding mechanisms and ingenious flipping and rotating screens, Lenovo’s Yoga 13 keeps things simple. It’s connected by an ultra-flexible hinge that allows the lid to rotate a full 360 degrees and bend back on itself fully, thus transforming into a tablet. This fixed hinge feels solid compared to the more fiddly mechanisms on other hybrids in this Group Test. The simple design makes the Yoga 13 comfortable to use, particularly in laptop mode. There’s a large Synaptics buttonless touchpad and our only complaint about the keyboard is that the keys are slightly small. The wide, rubberized wrist rest feels comfy, too. Lenovo ideapad yoga 13 As you push back the display from the laptop position, the Yoga 13 can strike a range of different poses. In ‘tent’ mode, the Yoga stands on its edges like a name card at a wedding supper. Lay the base flat with the keyboard facing down and the hinge allows the touchscreen to be titled back and angled to your optimum position. Fold it completely flat to use as a standard tablet, and the keyboard and trackpad are automatically disabled as the screen passes the horizontal, so there’s no danger of typing random letters while you hold it. However, at 1.53kg it’s very heavy, and the exposed keyboard and touchpad on the rear feel a bit odd, so using it flat doesn’t feel natural. For casual surfing or watching videos, however, the touchscreen and flexible hinge are a winning combination. As you push back the display from the laptop position, the Yoga 13 can strike a range of different poses The Yoga 13’s display is top quality. The 1,600 x 900 pixels resolution is lower than that on the Acer, Dell, Sony and Asus models, which all boast Full HD screens. However, its image quality is superb. The IPS panel’s wide viewing angle helps it look great in any position, and while the vivid color reproduction has a slightly pink hue, it’s more than a match for its peers. The 832:1 contrast ratio gives images solidity and depth, and the LED backlight reaches an ample brightness of 325cd/m2, though it was only seventh brightest in this Group Test. Our review model had a 1.7GHz Intel Core i5 CPU. However, that was a pre-launch model and the Yoga 13 now comes with a 1.9GHz Intel Core i7-3517U. The 4GB of memory and 128GB SSD make everything feel responsive, even while multitasking. With the slower Core i5 in place, the Yoga 13 achieved 0.61 in our Real World Benchmarks, which put it in fourth place. It runs the full 64-bit version of Windows 8. The Yoga 13 came fifth in our light-use battery, test, lasting 6 hours and 50 minutes, which should be adequate if you don’t keep it running all day. The 1,600 x 900 pixels resolution is lower than that on the Acer, Dell, Sony and Asus models The Yoga 13’s weakest element is connectivity. Despite plenty of space around the laptop’s flattened edges, there’s only one USB 2 port, one USB 3 port, an HDMI video port, a single 3.5mm headphone jack and an SD card reader. There’s no Ethernet socket, so you’ll have to rely solely on wireless via the single-band 802.11n and Bluetooth 4. Making a usable Windows 8 hybrid is all about compromise, and Lenovo has got the balance just right. The double-jointed hinge is flexible and durable, and there’s ample power twinned with a top-notch IPS display. Rather than creating an overweight tablet with diminished laptop features, Lenovo has come up with a solid, attractive laptop that doubles as an occasional, king-sized 13.3in tablet. The distinction is subtle, but it makes all the difference. The Yoga 13 isn’t perfect, but for $1,500 we think it’s the pick of the Windows 8 hybrids for now, if you want both a laptop and a tablet. · Features: 8/10 · Performance: 8/10 · Ease of use: 8/10 · Value for money: 8/10 Dell XPS 12: $1,948.99 The Dell XPS 12 converts from a laptop to a tablet with one press of your finger. Open the lid, push firmly on the display’s upper half and, with a soft click, the magnets and latches disengage, allowing the panel to spin through 180 degrees. Snap the lid shut and the XPS 12 becomes a tablet. Alternatively, you can swing the base round and use it as an adjustable stand. In laptop mode, the XPS 12 has a handy spill-resistant keyboard, with keys that light up in the dark. It’s also very pleasant to type on. The glass touchpad has a silky feel that’s great to use, and is flush with the wrist rest, making it easy for Windows 8’s swipe gestures. At 1.5kg, it’s heavy, which makes it less convincing as a tablet, but it’s reasonably comfortable to hold, with ridges on the base that provide good grip. The display is superb. It’s 12.5in across the diagonal, covered in strong Gorilla glass, and has a Full HD resolution. The only downside is that standard Windows text looks minuscule, so you may have to increase the text size to make it legible. We recorded a contrast ratio of 681:1 and a maximum brightness of 395cd/m2, fifth brightest in this Group Test. It achieved 0.65 in our benchmarks (third in this test), and its battery lasted 6 hours 55 minutes in our light-use battery test (fourth overall). Our review model came with a Core i7 CPU, 8GB of memory, a 256GB SSD and the full version of Windows 8. If you want to pay less than $1,948.55, the hardware can be cut back to a Core i5, 4GB of memory and 128GB SSD, but you’ll notice a reduction in performance. It’s 12.5in across the diagonal, covered in strong Gorilla glass, and has a Full HD resolution Verdict: 8/10 The Dell XPS 12 gets lots of things right. It’s attractive and powerful, and the display is excellent. However, despite being both an excellent laptop and a workable table, its screen-tipping mechanism doesn’t feel as sturdy as the Lenovo IdeaPad Yoga 13’s. if you’re going to spend this much money on a hybrid, we think it’s worth buying the cheaper Lenovo model with its sturdier construction.

__label__wiki	0.707853	0.707853	Nothing of what concerns the SHEPHERDS of Poussin's ARCADIA can leave us indifferent: as far away from the "loneliness" as of confusion, héritièrs of the humanism of Alberti and precedes of David or of Puvis de Chavannes, such a composition is solemn classicism. The concise inscription which justifies it inspired, these last years, of rather hot discussions summarized by Mr. Weisbach in the Gazette of the Art schools December 1937. Several essential facts emerge from this study: I - the sentence AND IN ARCADIA EGO appears to us for the premiére time in a table of Guerchin preserved at Galleria Nazionale of Rome, it there is engraved on a block of masonry and comments on a cranium which two shepherds contemplate, pressed on their sticks; one then finds it, about 1620-1630, in a first version of the Poussin table collected by the Collection of the Duke of Devonshire with Chatsworth; it is read finally in the centre of the famous table of the Louvre; its origin is forgotten, "all gives to believe that it was there, at the time, a very known saying, whose we are unaware of the source", this source is not ancient, it should be sought, undoubtedly, in the néo-Latin humanistic literature and could be contemporary painters. II - the direction of the sentence AND IN ARCADIA EGO is dubious. "interpretation that one (in) generally gave, during time" is as follows: ` Me also, I lived in Arcadie, and I knew the bonheur' there; ` it is at Goethe, Schiller, Nietszche, to quote only some large names', but it is already, with few things close that the biographer and friend of Poussin, Felibien, who writes: "By this inscription one wanted to mark that that which is in this burial lived in Arcadie, and which death recontre among the greatest happiness". But, Mr. Erwin Panofsky, in Philosophy and History essays presented to Ernest Cassirer, Oxford, 1936, breaks with the tradition, " the word AND can be reported only to IN ARCADIA and not not with EGO. If one wants to comment on the table of Guerchin correctly, it is necessary to compensate verb SUM and to give for subject to this I AM, the cranium which symbolizes abstracted Death ", one must thus read: "Me, Death, I exist even in Arcadie". This reading would be also valid for the first Poussin version, which exposes a cranium on its sarcophagus. For the table of the Louvre, whose monument is of a whole nudity, the direction should be modified a little: "it would be the tomb itself which would speak": such a interpretation that Mr. Panofsky maintained, defended and specified in answer to Mr. Weisbach in the issue of May-June 1938 of the Gazette of the Art schools, would be confirmed by the paraphrase of Bellori: Et in Arcadia ego, cioé che il sepolcro si trova ancora in Arcadia, e che la Morte ha luogo in mezzo le felicità". Lastly, Mr. Weisbach proposes a third reading: the word AND would be referred to IN ARCADIA as Mr. Panofsky thinks it, but it died it well which would speak and would proclaim: "Even in Arcadie, I had to suffer death", i.e.: "Even in Arcadie the country of happiness, me, it died, I was not saved by Death" or more explicitly still: "Me also, which enjoyed happiness in Arcadie, I had to undergo death, and I gis in this tomb". It is perhaps not useless to pour a new part with this file of an inscription illustrates... The German engraver of the Renaissance Heinrich Aldegrever (born in Paderborn about 1502, resident with Soest until 1555), left a engraved portrait of the chief of the Anabaptists Jean Beuckelsz, said Jean de Leyde, carried out after the death of the character who was torture victim on January 27, 1536. However, this print, which poses many curious problems (cf Emile GAVELLE. - Cornelis Engebrechtsz. Lille, 1929, p.328), are cornea of a distich singularly close to the text whose Poussin made fortune; the chimerical king who had died in the sufferings after a transitory reign of which he had wanted to make a Golden age, addresses to the spectator in "beautiful towards melancholic persons": HAEC FACIES. HIC CVLTVS. ERAT. CVM. SEPTRA. TENEREM REX. ANABAPTISTÔN SED. BREVE, TEMPVS. EGO. Confronted with that of Guerchin and Poussin, this inscription suggests the following remarks: I - Here a text engraved former to us texts painted; it notes like them it brittleness of happiness, and, like them, ends in EGO; it does not give their exact precedes but indisputably attaches them to a tradition which goes up at least in the medium of 16th century. II - In this text of 16th century, it is well a death which speaks and not an abstraction. EGO rejected at the end of the speech expresses the return of late on itself which confront in only one word of a poignant concision what it was, and what it is. Such a constation vigorously does not invite us it to push back the assumption of M, Panofsky which hears in Guerchin and Poussin the inhuman voice of one entitié: Death or the Tomb? Lastly, the clearness of the opposition of the opposition established at Aldegrever between the past and the present, the life and the incurable nostalgia of death, wouldn't it advise us, in some measurement, to reject the reconciling but slightly hard solution of Mr. Weisbach who weakens contrast by diluting the thought? Isn't the traditional reading, which in our tables, attaches AND and EGO, yet the best? The philologists, Mr. Weisbach notes it, there would not see absolute opposition, "if this bringing together corresponded to a correlation of facts", but in the current state of our knowledge it would be necessary to stick to one "not liquet". This darkness had not obstructed, until now, any the well-read men, large or small, who had adapted the formula to their humanistic nostalgias.... One should not, now, lira like them, while specifying a little: "Me also, I lived in Arcadie happy - and I died." Very finely, Mr. Panofsky gave like ancestors to our shepherds the Three Sharp ones in contemplation in front of the Three Dead ones.

__label__wiki	0.543666	0.543666	You are here: Home / Uncategorized / Edwin Starr Dies Edwin Starr Dies April 4, 2003 by Dan Edwin Starr passed away the other day. He was a soul shouter with a killer band and only three hits, but my oh my what hits: Agent Double-O Soul Twenty Five Miles One of my reference books describes “War”, from 1970, as “cataclysmic,” which is as good a description as any. Where Marvin Gaye talked about how “only love can conquer hate,” and the Temptations sang their complex and wordy “Ball of Confusion,” and Crosby Stills Nash & Young decried “Four dead in Ohio,” Starr cut to the chase. The chorus was as simple as can be: “War! Huh! What is it good for? Absolutely nothin’!” The chart underneath it swung from snare clicks to punching horns to snarling guitars. It was impossible to ignore the song as it came pouring out of the radio — as impossible as it is to imagine such a song being programmed on any major station today. If that were all Edwin Starr did, he’s be worth remembering. But there was also “Twenty Five Miles.” It’s the story of a guy counting down the 25 miles he’s walking to see his baby again, but it inexplicably fades out as the singer’s got 5 more miles to go. Why? Was the song too long for radio? What happened? Did he ever get there? Was she waiting for him? If I ever get to front a soul band, with the horns and the chick backup singers and the whole deal, I’m going to find me a chart for “Twenty Five Miles,” and that’s what I’ll sing. I might even make up the last five.	cc/2022-05/en_middle_0039.json.gz/line127
__label__wiki	0.563915	0.563915	The domain within your query sequence starts at position 132 and ends at position 159; the E-value for the Sec7 domain shown below is 8e-6. FRKLYMQLDEGSLTFNANPEEMLSMYCA The domain was found using the schnipsel database Sec7 Sec7 domain Domain named after the S. cerevisiae SEC7 gene product, which is required for proper protein transport through the Golgi. The domain facilitates guanine nucleotide exchange on the small GTPases, ARFs (ADP ribosylation factors). Protein containing this domain are highly divergent in their overall sequence, however, they share a common region of roughly 200 amino acids known as the SEC7 domain. The 3D structure of the domain displays several alpha-helices [ (PUBMED:9653114) ]. It was found to be associated with other domains involved in guanine nucleotide exchange (e.g., CDC25, Dbl) in mammalian guanine-nucleotide-exchange factors [ (PUBMED:9868368) ]. SEC7 domain containing proteins are guanine nucleotide exchange factors (GEFs) specific for the ADP-rybosylation factors (ARF), a Ras-like GTPases which is important for vesicular protein trafficking. These proteins can be divided into five families, based on domain organisation and conservation of primary amino acid sequence: GBF/BIG, cytohesins,eFA6, BRAGs, and F-box [ (PUBMED:24728583) ]. They are found in all eukaryotes, and are involved in membrane remodeling processes throughout the cell [ (PUBMED:19669794) ]. regulation of ARF protein signal transduction (GO:0032012) ARF guanyl-nucleotide exchange factor activity (GO:0005086) There are 12422 Sec7 domains in 12390 proteins in SMART's nrdb database.

A glutamic finger in the guanine nucleotide exchange factor ARNO displaces Mg2+ and the beta-phosphate to destabilize GDP on ARF1. EMBO J. 1998; 17: 3651-9 The Sec7 domain of the guanine nucleotide exchange factor ARNO (ARNO-Sec7) is responsible for the exchange activity on the small GTP-binding protein ARF1. ARNO-Sec7 forms a stable complex with the nucleotide-free form of [Delta17]ARF1, a soluble truncated form of ARF1. The crystal structure of ARNO-Sec7 has been solved recently, and a site-directed mutagenesis approach identified a hydrophobic groove and an adjacent hydrophilic loop as the ARF1-binding site. We show that Glu156 in the hydrophilic loop of ARNO-Sec7 is involved in the destabilization of Mg2+ and GDP from ARF1. The conservative mutation E156D and the charge reversal mutation E156K reduce the exchange activity of ARNO-Sec7 by several orders of magnitude. Moreover, [E156K]ARNO-Sec7 forms a complex with the Mg2+-free form of [Delta17]ARF1-GDP without inducing the release of GDP. Other mutations in ARNO-Sec7 and in [Delta17]ARF1 suggest that prominent hydrophobic residues of the switch I region of ARF1 insert into the groove of the Sec7 domain, and that Lys73 of the switch II region of ARF1 forms an ion pair with Asp183 of ARNO-Sec7. Betz SF et al. Solution structure of the cytohesin-1 (B2-1) Sec7 domain and its interaction with the GTPase ADP ribosylation factor 1. Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A. 1998; 95: 7909-14 Cytohesin-1 (B2-1) is a guanine nucleotide exchange factor for human ADP ribosylation factor (Arf) GTPases, which are important for vesicular protein trafficking and coatamer assembly in the cell. Cytohesin-1 also has been reported to promote cellular adhesion via binding to the beta2 integrin cytoplasmic domain. The solution structure of the Sec7 domain of cytohesin-1, which is responsible for both the protein's guanine nucleotide exchange factor function and beta2 integrin binding, was determined by NMR spectroscopy. The structure consists of 10 alpha-helices that form a unique tertiary fold. The binding between the Sec7 domain and a soluble, truncated version of human Arf-1 was investigated by examining 1H-15N and 1H-13C chemical shift changes between the native protein and the Sec7/Arf-1 complex. We show that the binding to Arf-1 occurs through a large surface on the C-terminal subdomain that is composed of both hydrophobic and polar residues. Structure-based mutational analysis of the cytohesin-1 Sec7 domain has been used to identify residues important for binding to Arf and for mediating nucleotide exchange. Investigations into the interaction between the Sec7 domain and the beta2 integrin cytoplasmic domain suggest that the two proteins do not interact in the solution phase. Mossessova E, Gulbis JM, Goldberg J Structure of the guanine nucleotide exchange factor Sec7 domain of human arno and analysis of the interaction with ARF GTPase. Cell. 1998; 92: 415-23 Sec7-related guanine nucleotide exchange factors (GEFs) initiate vesicle budding from the Golgi membrane surface by converting the GTPase ARF to a GTP-bound, membrane-associated form. Here we report the crystal structure of the catalytic Sec7 homology domain of Arno, a human GEF for ARF1, determined at 2.2 angstroms resolution. The Sec7 domain is an elongated, all-helical protein with a distinctive hydrophobic groove that is phylogenetically conserved. Structure-based mutagenesis identifies the groove and an adjacent conserved loop as the ARF-interacting surface. The sites of Sec7 domain interaction on ARF1 have subsequently been mapped, by protein footprinting experiments, to the switch 1 and switch 2 GTPase regions, leading to a model for the interaction between ARF GTPases and Sec7 domain exchange factors. Achstetter T, Franzusoff A, Field C, Schekman R SEC7 encodes an unusual, high molecular weight protein required for membrane traffic from the yeast Golgi apparatus. J Biol Chem. 1988; 263: 11711-7 Saccharomyces cerevisiae with mutations at the sec7 locus are pleiotropically deficient in protein transport within the Golgi apparatus and proliferate a large array of Golgi cisternae at a restrictive growth temperature (37 degrees C). The SEC7 gene and its product (Sec7p) have been evaluated by molecular cloning and sequence analysis. Two genes that allow sec7 mutant cells to grow at 37 degrees C are represented in wild-type yeast DNA libraries. A single copy of the authentic SEC7 gene permits growth of mutant cells, whereas the other gene suppresses growth deficiency only when expressed from a multicopy plasmid. The SEC7 gene is contained on a 8.4-kilobase pair SphI restriction fragment, portions of which hybridize to a single 6-kilobase pair mRNA. The gene is essential for yeast vegetative growth. DNA sequence analysis of this region detects a single open reading frame with the potential to encode a 2008-amino acid-long hydrophilic protein of 230 kDa. Putative Sec7p contains an unusual, highly charged acidic domain of 125 amino acids with 29% glutamate, 18% aspartate, and 21% serine. Within this region, stretches of 14 consecutive glutamate residues and 13 consecutive glutamates/aspartates are predicted. This domain in Sec7p may serve a structural role to interact with lipids or proteins on the cytoplasmic surface of the Golgi apparatus. 3D Structures of Sec7 domains in PDB 1bc9 CYTOHESIN-1/B2-1 SEC7 DOMAIN, NMR, MINIMIZED AVERAGE STRUCTURE 1ku1 Crystal Structure of the Sec7 Domain of Yeast GEA2 1pbv SEC7 DOMAIN OF THE EXCHANGE FACTOR ARNO 1r8m SEC7 DOMAIN OF THE ARF EXCHANGE FACTOR ARNO WITH BREFELDIN A-SENSITIZING MUTATIONS 1r8q FULL-LENGTH ARF1-GDP-MG IN COMPLEX WITH BREFELDIN A AND A SEC7 DOMAIN 1r8s ARF1[DELTA1-17]-GDP IN COMPLEX WITH A SEC7 DOMAIN CARRYING THE MUTATION OF THE CATALYTIC GLUTAMATE TO LYSINE 1re0 Structure of ARF1-GDP bound to Sec7 domain complexed with Brefeldin A 1s9d ARF1[DELTA 1-17]-GDP-MG IN COMPLEX WITH BREFELDIN A AND A SEC7 DOMAIN 1xsz The structure of RalF 1xt0 The Structure of N-terminal Sec7 domain of RalF 2r09 Crystal Structure of Autoinhibited Form of Grp1 Arf GTPase Exchange Factor 2r0d Crystal Structure of Autoinhibited Form of Grp1 Arf GTPase Exchange Factor 3l8n Crystal Structure of a domain of Brefeldin A-inhibited guanine nucleotide-exchange protein 2 (BrefeldinA-inhibited GEP 2) from Homo sapiens (Human).

__label__wiki	0.87358	0.87358	The year's worst films, pre-millennium edition By Noel Murray, Donna Bowman, and Jim Ridley DECEMBER 28, 1999: Was it the awful devil movies? The terrible teens? A Joan of Arc who looked and sounded as though she should be fronting a Flock of Seagulls cover band? Without further ado, the Scene's disgusted panel of cinematic executioners picks over the year's worst movies. The Bottom 10 1. 20 Dates The ultimate in indie-geek solipsism, this pseudo-documentary follows an obnoxious twerp named Myles Berkowitz as he films his attempts to date 20 different women. He hates the French, he loves to kvetch, and his insufferable movie is at least 17 dates too long. 2. The Messenger Accent on "mess." Luc Besson hastens the demise of French cinema with this lurid, colossally wrongheaded epic--the worst Joan of Arc retelling we can imagine without the services of either Aaron or Tori Spelling. 3. The Loss of Sexual Innocence With this insanely pretentious grab-bag of shampoo-commercial symbolism and neurotic erotica, writer-director Mike Figgis empties his notebook but fills a wastebasket. 4. Goodbye, Lover Hello, nausea. Don Johnson, Ellen DeGeneres, Patricia Arquette, and other victims in a facetious film-noir goof that would give David Letterman irony poisoning. 5. The Story of Us A long, wet fart of a movie, filled with the kind of self-important sitcom pontificating that makes your average Family Ties episode sound like Scenes From a Marriage. 6. 8MM/The General's Daughter/Arlington Road Big-budget Hollywood exploitation at its most shameful--a combination platter of fetishized victimization and yahoo-pandering, served up with utterly unwarranted self-importance. The last of these, a loony liberal fantasy that capitalizes on the issue of domestic terrorism, may be the year's single most offensive movie. 7. The Mod Squad Some mod squad--with their sub-Nancy Drew crime-busting skills and pouty don't-wake-us line readings, Claire Danes, Omar Epps, and Giovanni Ribisi should've been called the Sullen Three. 8. Jawbreaker No old-beyond-its-years teen movie this year was more reprehensible than this vile Heathers clone, in which a clique of hotties makes an acquaintance's accidental death look like a rape-murder. 9. Chill Factor A flesh-eating biological weapon code-named Elvis ends up in an ice-cream truck driven by Skeet Ulrich and Cuba Gooding Jr. So much for the believable part. 10. The Omega Code/End of Days/Stigmata The year's worst pop-culture trend gave vent to the darkest fears of Bible-thumping millenarians, but Satan must've smiled at all the suckers paying full price for this deviled Spam. Dishonorable mention: The Astronaut's Wife, Brokedown Palace, Dogma, Drop Dead Gorgeous, The Haunting, Stiff Upper Lips, Tea With Mussolini, Teaching Mrs. Tingle So terrible I walked out: Baby Geniuses, Dudley Do-Right, Love Stinks, Simply Irresistible, Wing Commander Donna: 1. Arlington Road Nothing made me angrier this year than Mark Pellington's promising thriller about terrorists undercover in the suburbs; the film presents Jeff Bridges' credible, laudable attempt to understand terrorists' motivations, then stomps all over him by portraying terrorists as random, robotic crazies. 2. The General's Daughter The trend toward presenting tabloid sensationalism as serious, Oscar-contending drama got worse as the fin-de-siècle neared; those involved with this sleaze-fest probably still haven't washed their souls clean. 3. End of Days Piggybacking on apocalyptic tension, Schwarzenegger and company tried to make a quick buck with this dreary, incoherent mess. 4. Payback If they had to go with a one-word title, a better one for this remake of Point Blank would be Ripoff--it's emotionally bankrupt, excessively violent, and way too proud of its color scheme. 5. The Other Sister Juliette Lewis' career will have a hard time recovering from this embarrassing portrayal of a mentally handicapped young woman finding love with a like-minded young man. Not since The Theory of Flight has the plight of the differently abled been so excruciatingly saccharine. 6. Teaching Mrs. Tingle Almost too bad to put on the list--it's more like a precocious senior project than a real movie. 7. Cruel Intentions Critics fell over themselves praising this completely unbelievable teenage version of Dangerous Liaisons; Ryan Phillippe's picture is now in the dictionary beside "stilted" and "unrealistic." 8. Outside Providence Only the involvement of the Farrelly brothers in this self-indulgent coming-of-age tale kept it from going straight to video. 9. Chill Factor The gasps of amazement as we tried to process the information in the trailer--Cuba Gooding Jr.? Skeet Ulrich? The bomb goes off when it gets... warm?--were more action-packed than the movie, a leading candidate for worst premise of the year. 10. 200 Cigarettes/Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels/Go Not everything in these movies is bad--OK, everything in 200 Cigarettes is bad--but collectively they poke us in the ribs and remind us that the post-Pulp Fiction fallout is still radioactive. Dishonorable Mention: Dogma, Runaway Bride, House on Haunted Hill, 20 Dates, The Mod Squad, EdTV. Noel: 1. The Mod Squad This "our option is expiring" cash-in is so lazy that whenever the plot hits a wall, the heroes turn a corner and run into the bad guys, who explain what's going to happen next. 2. Love Stinks Family sitcom vet Jeff Franklin apparently wrote and directed this odious, unfunny feature because he couldn't wait to film people swearing...which his characters do with the zest and competency of third-graders. 3. 20 Dates Myles Berkowitz's self-promoting "documentary" about single life in L.A. has no insight, no laughs, a cruddy look, an unappealing lead, and a dishonest conceit. 4. Teaching Mrs. Tingle The driving premise of this uneventful high school shocker would have us believe that if the lead character doesn't make valedictorian, she won't get "the big scholarship" and will be forced to skip college and become a waitress; apparently, this is a world without Pell Grants. 5. The Story of Us This smug look at the perils of marriage is mostly undone by its painfully unrealistic dialogue, which sounds like it was generated by bitter, unsuccessful stand-up comics. 6. Runaway Bride Director Garry Marshall fills every frame of this film with cute, quirky stereotypes of small-town and big-city life--his idea of emotion is what he finds cross-stitched on a kitchen door. 7. Detroit Rock City One of a handful of this year's '70s-set films without a clear target audience. Adults with nostalgia for their high-school hard-rock days balked at seeing another dopey teen flick, and teens wondered why everyone in the movie had bad hair and worse clothes. 8. The Bachelor This compendium of sexist clichés would be lame even if it wasn't being represented by lightweight romantic leads who laugh hysterically at their own non-jokes. 9. Chill Factor Not only does director Hugh Johnson stage a scene in an abandoned warehouse, he starts a shot on the villain's feet stepping out of an SUV in said warehouse, followed by an inevitable pan up; this happens even before Cuba Gooding Jr. starts bugging his eyes and sassing. 10. EdTV The big revelations of this tedious social commentary are that famous people have no privacy and that the media have no shame. Whoop-de-frickin'-doo. Dishonorable Mention: The Astronaut's Wife, Bats, End of Days, The General's Daughter, 200 Cigarettes. Worst Performances Jim: As the chemistry-impaired lovebirds united by a plane crash in the stupefying Random Hearts, Harrison Ford and Kristin Scott Thomas swapped spit along with the sorriest romantic dialogue in years. Cuba Gooding Jr. needs someone to show him an agent after back-to-back embarrassments in Instinct and Chill Factor; his manic mugging in the latter film made you wonder if he'd contracted lead poisoning from his Oscar. A mullet-headed Burt Reynolds staggered, howled, and clutched his racked nuts in the side-splitting The Hunter's Moon. But for pure horse laughs, nothing beat John Malkovich as the fey French monarch of The Messenger--imagine a cross between Stuart "Doggone It, I'm Special" Smalley and Richard Dreyfuss as Richard III in The Goodbye Girl. Donna: The only thing worse than watching the talented cast of Dogma try to bend their tongues around Kevin Smith's tortuous, torrential dialogue is watching Smith's mute character Silent Bob mugging in his reaction shots. As for Giovanni Ribisi, somebody please give him some direction so he'll stop practicing his mime exercises in front of the camera in The Other Sister and The Mod Squad. The most pretentious debut of the year belongs to Myles Berkowitz, the disingenuous self-promoter of 20 Dates, who outstayed his welcome on America's movie screens after about 10 percent of his dating odyssey. Noel: French Stewart's sole selling point in Love Stinks seems to be his stellar enunciation, while David Spade just isn't cut out to be the romantic lead of Lost and Found. Artie Lang is an intolerable sidekick in both Lost and Found and The Bachelor, but especially in the latter, where he hollers his lines desperately and repeatedly. Not to jump on the "bash Denise Richards" bandwagon, but she delivers her lines in The World Is Not Enough as though she were trying to remember whether she left the oven on. Finally, Casper Van Dien (the poor man's Ryan Phillippe) looks ridiculous as the self-help-guru-cum-foreign-policy-advisor in The Omega Code, and he's so vapid as Sleepy Hollow's Brom Bones that the character is all but cut out of Tim Burton's film. Disturbing trend Jim: Apocapalooza '99. The end of the century brought a spate of dire quasi-religious thrillers that offered loads of titillation in the name of biblical prophecy. The titillation I don't mind; it's the hypocrisy of using sin to sell salvation, and vice versa. It's a tactic as old as DeMille's juicy old bathing-in-asses'-milk spectaculars, but the edge of millennial hysteria just poured on another layer of snake oil. Donna: Ratings Creep. Something has gone wrong in the movie industry when movies aimed at 5-year-olds are rated PG. The sad truth is that 5-year-olds now won't be caught dead in a G-rated movie--after all, they're not babies anymore. Inflation flows upstream with complete illogic and complete predictability: Eight-year-olds won't see PG flicks, 10-year-olds say PG-13 is for sissies, pre-teens consider R their birthright. The release of Stuart Little with a PG rating is the last straw. The MPAA needs either to overhaul the system or throw it on the scrap heap. Noel: Tales of female empowerment, written by women, that have a distinctly male chauvinist leaning. In Runaway Bride, The Story of Us, and A Walk on the Moon, the exploration of women's sexual, political, and romantic awakenings turns into self-flagellating tales of "how I screwed over my boyfriend." * In the most telling moment of the excruciating yak-a-thon that is The Story of Us, director Rob Reiner spends five minutes comparing the mysteries of human perception to his ass. * A new twist to that stuffy old Bible: Adam and Eve bond in The Loss of Sexual Innocence by peeing in a river. * Conveniently for the brilliant crime-stoppers of The Mod Squad, the bad guys stand on the other side of a fence and lay out the entire plot of the movie. * The merry cut-ups of American Pie secretly Webcast an exchange student taking off her clothes on the Internet--a prank that gets the girl shipped back to cheery Central Europe. * The nadir of The General's Daughter was almost unwatchable: A woman ties herself, naked and spread-eagled, to stakes on the ground--making some kind of sick point in the plot, but really providing cheap titillation. * Lili Taylor makes the end of The Haunting unintentionally comic by defiantly yelling "It's all about family!" to a cheesy computer graphic. * As Arlington Road comes to a climax, the star finds that his spur-of-the-moment decisions have all been anticipated by an eerily omniscient Tim Robbins. * They didn't burn Milla Jovovich at the stake for talking to God; they were just fed up with the half hour it took her to finish a line of dialogue. * The lowest point in The Story of Us comes 15 minutes into the film, when Paul Reiser and Rita Wilson launch into interminable monologues about computer porn and toilet paper. * At the end of The Mod Squad, the three principals gather on a pier to decide whether to continue as undercover cops. They all shrug. That about described the artistic commitment behind this shrug of a movie. * If I take one thing away from Varsity Blues, it will be this brilliant piece of football philosophy--forget the fundamentals, and play every down as though it were third and 27. * In End of Days, when Arnold Schwarzenegger jokingly asks if the doomsday timetable is on Eastern Standard Time, Rod Steiger angrily snaps that the time doesn't matter, then goes on to explain exactly why it does matter.

__label__wiki	0.655827	0.655827	Bamboo Hut Restaurant and Lounge, 1942 -2010 40 Highway and Pittman Rd KC MO (now 10111 E US Highway 40 Independence, MO 64055) A photo from Flikr of the Bamboo Hut shortly before it closed A roadhouse: designed to help travelers on their journeys, and as the automobile caught on for transportation--and recreation--the roadhouse often became a place where city folk fed up with laws and red tape, conformity and dullness, could escape for an evening of “letting their hair down”, so to speak. While the vestiges of Helen Stroud do live on in Kansas City at Stroud’s North, Kansas City’s oldest surviving roadhouse was the Bamboo Hut at 40 Highway and Pittman Road. For 68 years, it consistently served great food at astonishingly modest prices while serving up rounds of stiff drinks and offering diners tire-sized ashtrays. Roadhouses back in the day often had a questionable reputation, existing as they did along highways in areas where jurisdictions were vague. Who, in other words, was responsible for overseeing law and order? The first advertisement for the tavern appeared in the Kansas City Times in February, 1942, but within six months, it had its first big brush with the law when it was raided by the Independence division of Jackson County law enforcement (the property being technically two and a half miles east of Kansas City limits). The Independence deputy sheriff had been observing the tavern for some time due to frequent disturbances, and when a brawl broke out in February, the raid apparently shut down the premises, run initially by Tony Travalanti and Willie Buffa. When the Bamboo Hut reopened shortly after the raid, Carol Roberts had replaced Travalanti and Buffa as the presumed owner, announcing in the Kansas City Times that her establishment would feature chicken and sandwiches. It went without saying that accompanying the meals and snacks would be ice-cold beer and cocktails. What did “Bamboo” have to do with this roadhouse let alone “Hut”? Even before the tiki rage of post-World-War Two America started in earnest, the owners had outfitted the inside booths to resemble small huts with “grass” roofs over the booths to give it a tropical feel. Plastic palm trees added extra tropical effect. Bamboo Hut’s exotic name and interiors made it stand out, even though the outside of the building was modest, squat, and aside from its large red neon sign, unassuming. When not being cited for fights and liquor violations, the roadhouse was the scene of robberies, and in one case, a bomb explosion shortly after midnight on New Years Day in 1954 when an “unidentified patron was said to have received cuts on a leg” due to the explosion of a small bomb. But such incidents really did not matter to owners and an increasing number of patrons who likely felt that the Bamboo Hut kept a small bit of Kansas City’s old “Paris of the Plains” reputation alive. Most nights of the week the little tavern was a great place for regulars to drink and dance, and most importantly, eat, thanks to longtime cook, Bernice E. Phillips (1922-2012) who spent most of her life behind the stove. While it initially started as a fried chicken and steak restaurant, inconsistent meat shortages and rationing that defined the later years of World War Two put it firmly in the fried-chicken-in-a-basket and barbecue camp. By the time that prosperity returned, so too, did juicy steaks doused with garlic butter and served on metal platters so hot that the food arrived to the table madly sizzling. An early ad, dated 1943. As time went on and many restaurants succumbed to various dining fads and trends, the Bamboo Hut also became appreciated for its adherence to foods that older generations of modest Kansas Citians adored and craved. As Interstates overtook the old highways, the Bamboo Hut saw its reputation enhanced as a destination for people searching for such delicacies as lamb and chicken fries (testicles), whole fried catfish, frog legs, and cocktails that had not yet returned to Kansas City as fashionable “retro” libations. It is fair to suggest that the Bamboo Hut became for owners, staff, and patrons alike a second home. When James Elbert (Jim) Holler returned from the Korean War and married Patricia A. (Pat) Phillips, the two bought the Bamboo Hut around 1965 and owned it for a number of years. Many of their own family members worked and dined at the Bamboo Hut as well, garnering mentions in both the Hollers’ obituaries. Jeanne Craig was not part of the Holler family, but she loved working there when a job change brought her to Independence, and when the Hollers decided to move to Las Vegas, Jeanne and her husband, Charles Robert Craig, Sr. bought it from the Hollers and continued the old traditions with Bernice still commanding the stove. The Bamboo Hut was the victim of a serious fire in 1980, and at that point, it was clear that the tiki theme was no longer viable given that the inside décor made the fire blaze all the brighter. Likely to keep the remodel costs minimal, the décor changed from South Pacific to “1960s rec room,” as Ferruzza described it in his 24 February, 2005 KC Pitch article. “The walls are paneled in dark wood, the tables are draped in burgundy vinyl, and wall sconces are outfitted with little orange flickering light bulbs.” Ferruzza was genuinely pleased with the addition of televisions that made patrons feel like they were “eating dinner in their parents’ basements.” The food, Ferruzza continued, remained delicious, and the cocktails remained stiff. The prices remained modest for the quality, with an 8-ounce strip, salad, garlic toast, and a baked potato coming in at less than “8 gallons of gas,” Ferruzza wrote. The most expensive offering was a seafood platter loaded with fried shrimp, catfish, and frog legs, accompanied by a salad with a liberal dressing of homemade ranch dressing. “At the Bamboo Hut, smoking and cholesterol have never gone out of style.” But all good things must come to an end, and eventually, as ordinances outlawed smoking in public areas and even, alas, cholesterol likewise went out of style, Kansas City’s oldest roadhouse ultimately closed in 2010. Kansas City author and restaurateur, Lou Jane Temple best summed up why and how the Bamboo Hut became a Kansas City Icon: "It was like a time machine -- with food. . . . And it was so out there -- you never knew anyone but a select group of very cool people who would ever confess to eating there -- it was a great place for a romantic assignation. I never ever went there with anyone I was married to at the time." We’ll let it all stand at that. This blog post is the exclusive property of the author, Andrea Broomfield.

Augustiniana 65(2015)3-4 : 141-167 The purpose of the paper is to examine an allegorical interpretation of Genesis in Book Eleven of the Confessions in terms of spiritual exercise and contemplation. Augustine continues the Alexandrian tradition of allegorical exegesis, understood as a movement from the material 'letter' towards the immaterial 'spirit'. The study of the Scripture, however, is not a merely discursive activity of the intellect, generating as much as possible different allegorical meanings of the text, but a spiritual exercise and a prayerful activity establishing a relationship and dialogue with God. Augustine uses the biblical metaphor of the feeding deer to describe a three stage process of going from reading through meditation to contemplation. He also suggests six activities that are involved in this exercise, two of which constitute each of the three levels (recipere et resumere, ambulare et pascere, recumbere et ruminare). This exercise culminates in an experience of contemplation, described as the intimate presence of the Word as the Bridegroom. Augustine - spiritual exercise - contemplation - allegorical exegesis Craig J.N., DE PAULO, 'o Love that Casts Out Fear' : More on Augustine's Influence of Heidegger Concerning timor castus and timor servilis. Augustiniana 65(2015)3-4 : 169-183 Continuing the connection between Heidegger and Augustine concerning chaste and servile fear from his earlier article entitled 'Following Heidegger’s Footnotes to Augustine on Timor Castus and Timor Seruilis', de Paulo brings his 'Augustinian phenomenology' into play by engaging in dialogue with Jean-Luc Marion and questions whether Heidegger’s re-appropriation of Augustine is philosophically credible or does Heidegger’s reading of Augustine also need some deconstructing? Then, with an analysis of Augustine’s seventeen citations from the First Letter of St. John, the article explores Augustine’s ambiguous convergence of love and fear. Augustine - Heidegger - timor - amor - First Letter of St. John Luke MURRAY, The Church Fathers and the Fall of Judas : Grace, Predestination and Free Will among Early Modern catholic Biblical Commentaries. Augustiniana 65(2015)3-4 : 185-203 This essay seeks to analyze and compare several prominent early modern Catholic biblical commentaries on the question of grace, free will and predestination and the role in which the Church fathers had in shaping their approach. By comparing the commentaries of Franciscus Toletus, Cornelius Jansen (of Ghent), Thomas Stapleton, Guilielmus Estius, and Cornelius a Lapide on the fall of Judas in John 17:12, I hope to shed light on a neglected area in the history of exegesis. The paper will be structured as follows: first, I will provide a brief introduction and an explanation for including these five particular figures in the essay; second, I will discuss the three key patristic sources for the scholars of this era, viz. Cyril of Alexandria, Basil of Caesarea, and Augustine; and third, the paper will introduce the figures and analyze select passages of their commentaries that discuss the fall of Judas in John 17:12, while also paying attention to the role Augustine (and other auctoritates) play in the argumentation. Finally, some general conclusions will be drawn about grace, free will, and predestination among Catholic biblical commentaries in the Early Modern period and also the influence of Augustine on Catholic exegetes on this topic. Early Modern Catholicism - Augustine - Judas - grace - free will - predestination - Franciscus Toletus - Thomas Stapleton - Cornelius Jansen - Guilelmus Estius - Cornelius a Lapide Jacob ARCHAMBAULT, TNature, Will, and the Fall in Augustine and Maximus the Confessor. Augustiniana 65(2015)3-4 : 205-230 This paper compares the understanding of nature, will, and the Fall in Augustine and Maximus the Confessor, and finds their accounts to be identical on most points of substance, if not always in the terminology used to express these points. On several points, they agree with each other against both Eastern and Western accounts as traditionally conceived. Given that these figures are often regarded as paradigmatic for Western and Eastern traditions of Christianity, respectively, this points to a need for a more nuanced account of the unity and divergences within and between Eastern and Western Christian traditions than that given to present. Augustine - Maximus the Confessor - human nature - will - the Fall - Original Sin - guilt Kenneth BERG, Le jansénisme est-il un épicurisme? La "délectation" dans l'Augustinus. Augustiniana 65(2015)3-4 : 231-246 The article is a detailed discussion of the concept of delectation as it appears in the Augustinus. The use of this concept by Jansenius seems to support the accusation, raised by Fénelon and seconded by Henri Bremond, that Jansenism is essentially an Epicureanism. However, the article shows that the idea of delectation might well be compatible with some notion of unselfish love. In the first part, it is noted how Jansenius, like Augustine, uses 'delectation' as synonymous with a passion overriding free will. In the second part, it is shown how, at the same time, the word is used to express the centre of the will or what makes it truly voluntary. In the third part, it is argued that, while the concept is not a sign of hedonism, it also is not simply a metaphor. It is shown instead that love-as-delectation is regularly conceived of as a thoroughly disinterested affection. In this manner, the article suggests that the concept of delectation may tell us something important about the possibility of imagining a love that is at once passionate and unselfish. It hints that the ambiguity of the Augustinus concerning the nature of love may be that of almost the entire Catholic tradition prior to Fénelon.

__label__cc	0.648751	0.351249	By Andrew Bensch The San Jose Sharks are just four wins away from hoisting hockey’s holy grail for the first time in their 25-year history. A Stanley Cup parade down Santa Clara Street is as close to a reality as it has ever been before, yet still so far away. For as strong as the Sharks have looked in these playoffs, between knocking off their biggest rival in just five games and eliminating the Central Division’s top team in six, it is only natural for the San Jose fan base to be in disbelief. All they have ever known is heartbreak. Prior to missing the postseason a year ago, the Sharks qualified for the postseason 10 straight times. During those 10 seasons they ended up losing their final game every single time. While reaching the conference finals three times during that span isn’t anything to scoff at, the other seven seasons ended far short of expectations. Two of those losses in particular caused some serious soul searching in the offseason. In 2009 the Sharks won the President’s Trophy for the NHL’s best regular season record, only to lose in the first round to the Anaheim Ducks. More recently, the Sharks became just the fourth team in league history to lose a best-of-seven series after going up 3-0 when they lost to the Los Angeles Kings in 2014. Having been so close for so long but not getting over the hump will make a potential Stanley Cup win that much more rewarding for this fan base. All championship wins for a team you root for are exciting, but there is no sweeter relief than finally winning for the first time after falling just short time and time again. If only I were anticipating this euphoria. Rather, I find myself anticipating that inevitable letdown. I’m sure some of you remember the EA Sports commercial from a few years ago showing a video-game Chicago Cubs winning the World Series. It’s a dream many Cubs fans have gone entire lifetimes without realizing. Granted, the Cubs World Series drought of over 100 years trumps the Sharks’ quarter-century existence, but the sentiment of that commercial translates to Sharks fans nonetheless. A seemingly impossible Sharks dream is almost a reality, but there is this part of me that can’t stop anticipating an eventual heart-crushing defeat. On the bright side, my rational side knows this Sharks team has what it takes to get the job done. Before the regular season started, I picked the Sharks to win the Pacific Division over teams like Los Angeles and Anaheim. And my Stanley Cup playoff bracket has them winning the Stanley Cup. The Sharks had a tremendous offseason this past summer. General Manager Doug Wilson added key players at all three positions in Martin Jones in goal, Joel Ward at forward and Paul Martin on defense. It was an offseason reminiscent of the one prior to the 49ers winning their most recent Super Bowl back in 1994. San Francisco added key veterans like Ken Norton Jr. and Deion Sanders to complement an already awesome awesome core led by Steve Young and Jerry Rice. San Jose doesn’t have the past championship success that those 49ers had but there are many similarities. Linebacker Gary Plummer famously enacted the monkey off the back of Steve Young during the final minutes of a Super Bowl XXIX blowout victory. It would be really neat if a Sharks teammate were to do the same thing for Joe Thornton if the Sharks end up winning the Cup. This is the best roster the Sharks have ever had. They are deep at forward, deep in goal and feature an elite top-four defense. This is no fluke run. Rationally speaking, it is very believable what they are poised to accomplish. Unfortunately for me, my irrational side has taken over with anxiety trumping my excitement for the final round.

__label__cc	0.707868	0.292132	Chalkboard encourages civic conversations January 27, 2016 9:21 am by Lacy Parmenter Views: 17 Ashley Callan / Castleton Spartan A new chalk wall located in the education department encourages students to answer questions and start conversations. To Castleton University senior Liz Diohep, there is nothing more important than educational policy. And to try to get others to share that passion, Diohep has created an inquisitive chalk wall in the education department to get students to be more involved. Once a week, the chalk-paint-covered wall in the lobby area of the department is updated with a new question for people to respond to. These questions range from educational policy to form of civic engagement. The current question asks: “Should teachers be evaluated based on student performance? If not, how?” Answers ranged from the basic “No” to more thoughtful ones like “teachers should be evaluated on student growth/progress, not just performance.” Back in Diohep’s sophomore year, Castleton University sent her to a conference called the American Democracy Project. Many different colleges attend, and the ADP conference focuses on civic engagement. At the conference, Diohep found out about Democracy Plaza from Purdue University. “Democracy Plaza consists of having huge chalkboards that are updated with questions or quotes, that are prevalent and helps to get students to talk about different things within civics,” said Diohep. The wall project is a nice addition and a great idea, said education department Senior Staff Assistant Katharine Spaulding, who notified The Spartan. “I just want to make sure that students are recognized for their work,” said Spaulding. Spaulding’s office window looks directly out to the wall. “This wall used to be a God awful teal color,” she said laughing, Right before school started, Castleton facilities workers painted the wall white, and Spaulding was at ease when this process occurred. “After a couple of weeks into the fall semester I come in one day and the wall is dark green and I panicked. I thought not again! I’ll have to look out my window at this dark wall,” Spaulding said with a giggle. But Spaulding said when Diohep started writing on the wall and asking questions for the students to answer, she realized this was a wonderful idea. “It’s great that students have a place to come and express themselves,” said Spaulding. Emily Gleason, professor in the education department, also praised the effort. “Once someone usually writes something interesting other people will add on,” said Gleason. A problem, however, is that few know about it. “I had never heard of the chalk wall before, but I think it’s a great idea. I would love to see it expand to either one main spot on campus or within every department. Now that we have grown to a university, it’s important for projects to grow as well,” said junior Vidavanh Xapilak. Diohep said she hopes the wall has lasting power. “I would love to come back in a couple of years and see the wall expand into other departments. I feel as though that’s the ultimate goal,” said Diohep.	cc/2022-05/en_middle_0039.json.gz/line161
