Maharathi (2008): An effective translation
Subhash (Paresh Rawal), a smalltime robber, is employed by Jaisingh Adenwalla (Naseeruddin Shah), an alcoholic and former film producer. Adenwalla suffers through respiratory disease as he struggles in life alongside his young, beautiful, and greedy wife Mallika (Neha Dhupia), with whom he shares a love-hate relationship. Escaping her attempts to kill him for his life insurance funds (24 crore rupees, roughly five million U.S. dollars), he commits suicide in frustration, leaving behind a will which guides the film: to avail the life insurance benefit, Mallika must prove that her husband's death was the result of a murder by someone other than her and Subhash, and not the result of an accident or suicide. Will she succeed? What role will Subhash play? How would the reactions of Adenwalla's trusted lawyer (Boman Irani), a patient police commissioner Gokhale (Om Puri), and a confused housekeeper Swati (Tara Sharma) influence Mallika's quest? See Maharathi to discover. Its flaws are overshadowed by outstanding performances by some of the best in the business.
It's evident through the staging and cinematography alone that the film is an adaptation of a stage play. Shot in a small number of locations (the scene of the suicide is the obvious dominant set), it combines solid art direction with an effective background score (the only song is not part of the core narrative, and is not a fair indicator of, nor a complement to, a good product of film!). The screenplay, although slightly lagging in some portions (which, for a runtime of less than two hours, warrants concern), is complemented by injection of tasteful humor when one least expects it, often providing welcome comic relief. The dialogue delivery is clearly its biggest strength -- credit a near-perfect casting for it shining through. There isn't a moment one feels the actors are out of place.
Paresh Rawal, to whom the film clearly belongs, is as good as in any of his several fantastic performances. The ease with which he switches emotions, from troubled to calm, comedic, angry, and bewitching, all in one long take, is remarkable. The one-on-one exchanges between him and Naseeruddin Shah are a treat. There is a segment in which he discusses levels of risk and reward with Neha Dhupia, in which he is outstanding. The climax, in which the perception of an incoherent plot is dealt shame, is well executed and contains the thrills one expects from a thriller.
Naseeruddin Shah puts most filmic alcoholics to shame. A scene at the billiards hall and another in a room dedicated to his character's products of films are flawlessly executed. Tara Sharma is a pleasant surprise, but she's done similar roles before. Neha Dhupia is good, although possibly the one weak link in the acting department -- not something to hold against her, the others are just a lot better and a lot more experienced. One wishes Om Puri had a much bigger role, but the scope of his character does not afford him an opportunity to do much. Boman Irani is his usual dependable self.
Ultimately, it is the lack of thrills, perhaps a result of strong emphases on dialogue, that must be considered the film's biggest weakness. While that is a fair criticism, what must also be heeded alongside it is that Maharathi skips several conventional (and often thrill-inducing) conclusions to its many sub-plots. Instead, it relies on its audience to draw conclusions based on their knowledge of the genre. Indeed, almost implicitly, the possibilities are endless. This gets slightly tricky because drawing the wrong conclusion at the wrong juncture might lead one to believe the characters are dumb when they are not (except the lawyer, if I were him, I'm convinced I'd have a much stronger case). But it's certainly worth toying around with, because, as the characters suggest, low risk and high reward mark opportunities worth availing.
There's every opportunity to enjoy this film for those willing to play along (and occasionally suspend disbelief). When treated within its scope (e.g. time line) and appreciated within its limitations (e.g. a script for a stage play), it works as an effective translation to film. Three stars and then some for a film clearly defined by excellent performances, worth watching at least once. If there is a Paresh Rawal fan in you, consider this mandatory viewing!
Movie rating: 3.25/5 (Good!)
My classification: 15+ (for theme)

I do not believe it has released on DVD yet. I saw it at the theater in December, but you know what else released that month to keep me busy :)

I love Paresh Rawal - when he gets a decent role and this one sounds like it. In fact, for Nasseer+Om Puri+Paresh Rawal I'd watch anything (except for a story involving the aam aadmi! lol) and a murder mystery is just bonus! :-D The plot reminds me of Cyril Hare's Suicide Excepted - maybe Paresh Rawal got his story idea from there? That one though, was a very conventional British murder mystery in the best tradition of 1940s and may not really have any other plot similarities.
Thanks to your review, I can look forward to this! Now if only they'd hurry up and release the DVD...

That's exactly the sentiment I went to see it with, and I wasn't disappointed. I think you'll enjoy it! I liked filling in the blanks, it's something any fan of murder mysteries can appreciate that.
LOL at the 'aam aadmi' comment! It's true. I do think about the significance of any filmmaker feeling the need to explicitly state that to the audience, as opposed to letting the audience discover it on their own!
And thank you for introducing me to Cyril Hare. I'll try to check out one of his books some day (have you read any?). It'd be difficult to judge the relationship between Suicide Excepted and Maharathi based on those notes alone, seems the latter is different enough.

I haven't seen this movie..I guess some pre-conceived notions about it are always preventing me from watching it. ;) I'll go for it after reading your positive review.
- Monday, February 09, 2009
I've read all his books that are available in print - 6-7 of them - and loved them all. But then I love Sherlock Holmes, Agatha Christie, Dorothy Sayers, et al... - in fact any murder mystery from before 1950s that involves pre-war Britain, slow moving plots and total absence of gruesome serial killers! From your synopsis it appears that, Suicide Excepted has a very different plot. But the central theme is that of a family trying to prove their relative's suicide as murder in order to collect on insurance.
As to aam aadmi, after A Wednesday, I approach Nasseer's movies with more caution than before. So your review is greatly appreciated.

do you remember what I told in your 'December releases' post? I told I am surely gonna watch this in theatre. And you told you are waiting for DVD.
See what happened? I STILL haven't watched it, and you watched it in theater !! :-D
I am desparate to watch this. Its under my list of not to miss in 2008. Sigh... I like suspense thriller, and this is another one made based on Gujarati play. How about next review on movie based on Aandhlo Paato??

- ajnabi said...
This is why I love Bollywood blogs in general and yours in particular--I'd never know this was based on a play otherwise! It looks really good, but then anything with Boman and Naseeruddin in the same film is practically required to be. ;-)

- theBollywoodFan said...
Bhargav: I had some of those as well. I really think the actors made this tick (and a joy to watch), otherwise it was all right. I hope you enjoy it!
Bollyviewer: All right, so it sounds like a go. I immensely enjoyed Sherlock back in high school when I used to read them. Haven't touched one since, but maybe now's the time to get back to those mysteries, beginning with Hare!
Ditto to the A Wednesday comment! Naseer's also got Firaaq coming up toward the end of this month, in a film directed by Nandita Das. I'd added more to the February releases post.
Darshit: Yes, you're right about that discussion! See, once I discovered this wasn't a typical murder mystery, I was fair game. Besides, after seeing Ghajini a couple times, I was ready for a Paresh-Naseeruddin film :) Finally got around to discussing it, thank goodness for notepads!
I haven't heard of Aandhlo Paato, but will try doing some research on it, thanks for the lead!
Ajnabi: Thank you :) I'm surprised at the few details available on Maharathi the play -- for a play with 700+ sessions, one would think there would be more out on the WWW. Oh, the cast was great. Boman and Naseeruddin are brilliant, and so is Paresh Rawal!

- NidaMarie said...
Hmm...I would have never thought to watch this but...now I may just give it a try, thanks to your review!
Anything with Naseeruddin Shah is usually worth my time, I've found so far...
- Tuesday, February 10, 2009
- theBollywoodFan said...
Hey Nida! Should you choose to see it, I'd recommend watching it for the actors and then working to the plot. It's certainly not the ideal approach, and not the mark of a top quality film, but it's easy to see how the other way around with Maharathi might not work. So, as Bollyviewer says (in her first comment above), treat the mystery as a bonus, and I think you'll enjoy the experience!
Naseeruddin Shah is superb, a true professional. Have you seen one of his recent works -- Iqbal (2005) -- yet?

BTW, do you know what happened to Aamir's blog? Did it change URLs or did he delete it?

He changed the URL (whew). For a second, you had me scared, LOL. I've updated the link to his blog in the sidebar. Thanks for bringing this to my attention, Ajnabi, I hadn't realized the older URL was not working!

Darshit: Aah, see, I didn't realize Aankhen was based on a play. It was fun. I liked the story, although (and this is from what little I remember of it from 2002) it got a bit too goofy for my liking toward the end. Maybe because it was based around toying with financial services people, LOL? And ditto to Juhi!!!
Hi Jinju! Welcome, and thank you very much for your kind comments. Glad you found the translations useful, I'll hope to add more moving forward. Also hope you find the other content interesting :)

Of course! It's difficult to keep the two in the banner away, really.

I much enjoyed this movie... even if it seems fairly obvious as to what is coming.
I enjoyed Aankhen too, though the ending was a bit weird. There is still time for them to make a sequel though... I'd watch that for sure!
As for A Wednesday... what were the thoughts on that? I'm considering watching it, but haven't heard much about it (in terms of reviews).

I am still working on getting my MoJo back. I think half of crafting is organization. If your space is a big mess, it isn't really conducive to creating. Got new goodies? Where do you store them? Making a project....where do you put everything? I have some much stuff piled onto my workspace that I have no where to make anything. I had a blast two weeks ago at Scrapbook Expo. I got a ton of great new things, but where do I put all my new things?
Enter IKEA and the Raskog cart. My Dad was nice enough to get me one and I love it. I feel like it is the perfect storage solution for Project Life. I have a ton of stuff in mine already and it is perfect because it is mobile. Notice it is right in front of the closet. I can just roll it out of the way when I need to open the closet doors.
Below are some of the new fun things I picked up at the Expo.
Here is how I decided to organize all that great stuff into my Raskog cart.
The top shelf of my cart holds some basic tools like a glue runner, corner rounder, xyron sticker maker, ink pad, stamp block and pens.
On the middle shelf I have two inserts. On the bottom are my Gelatos, Tools, Masks, and Washi tapes. Above that are my journal cards and Copic journals. In the back I have Thickers and some card stock.
At the bottom I have more Washi, clear stamps, stickers, 6x6 paper pads, and a ton of Glitz Design goodies.
Took some fun classes at Scrapbook Expo too. One was a mixed media class with the Rubber Cafe. It was all about using Gelatos.

Italian Professor revealing extraterrestrials among us dies – conference video released
Stefano Breccia, who died in Italy several days ago, led an extraordinary life. Publicly, he taught at several European universities and worked as an electrical engineer in Italy. In his private life he kept a closely guarded secret until 2007 when he released a remarkable book. Contattismi di Massa (translated into English as Mass Contact in 2009) detailed the history of a mysterious group of human looking extraterrestrials that established underground bases in Italy and met with local residents between 1956 and 1978.
He privately investigated the Amicizia (Friendship) case over a period of several decades during which he got to meet and question many of the primary witnesses. The events in his book appear like episodes from Star Trek, but are well supported by documentary evidence, the independent investigations of Italy's finest UFO researchers, and first hand witnesses of the events described.
Some of the witnesses were leading statesmen, scholars and high society figures from Italy and Europe. Breccia included a number of prefaces and statements by witnesses detailing the extensive number of people involved in the Friendship case. To commemorate Prof Breccia's remarkable life and experiences, the Exopolitics Institute is pleased to release online his video presentation at the 2010 Earth Transformation Conference. At the conference, he explained how, according to the original witnesses described in Mass Contact, most of the extraterrestrial bases were destroyed in 1978, by a group of "synthetic" extraterrestrials.
Breccia described at some length the differing philosophies between these extraterrestrial groups that at times came into violent conflict. During his presentation in Hawaii, Breccia revealed that the human looking "Friendship†extraterrestrials did not however stop their contacts in 1978. The contacts have quietly continued up to the present, and even Breccia became involved in some of these. Breccia also presented his detailed analysis of a photo showing one of the "Friendship†extraterrestrials who was approximately ten feet tall.Â
In terms of its overall impact, number of participants involved, and documentary evidence compiled, Mass Contact is the most astonishing case of human extraterrestrial contact in modern history. Prof Breccia's dedication to UFO investigations, and knowledge of the Friendship case will be keenly missed.

Recording the number and type of earthquakes being produced underneath the volcano during the eruption is the foundation of the Montserrat Volcano Observatory monitoring operation. During the eruption over 30,000 earthquakes have been recorded, although the majority of these cannot be felt.
The earthquakes are classified and, if possible, their locations are calculated by skilled seismologists at MVO. These are some of the common types of earthquakes recorded on Montserrat.
Earthquakes are interpreted as being caused by rock breaking. They were predominant in the phreatic phase of the eruption. Click on the seismograph on the right to see an example of a volcano-tectonic reading.
These events are probably related to gas movement in and beneath the dome and sometimes precede rockfalls and pyroclastic flows. Click on the seismograph on the right to see an example of a long period reading.
Hybrids commonly occur in swarms at shallow levels under the dome due to pressurisation. Click on the seismograph on the right to see an example of a hybrid reading.
These are caused by material collapsing from the dome. Pyroclastic flows have a similar but longer duration signal. Click on the seismograph on the right to see an example of rockfall signals.
An explosion signal is made of several distinctparts. The initial part of the seismic signal is caused by the explosion itself, as material is driven vertically upwards from the volcano. This is followed after a few tens of seconds by the pyroclastic flow signal, lasting for a few minutes, as material collapses out of the eruption column. A lower level tremor continues for several tens of minutes after the explosion as the volcano continues to vent ash and gas. The amplitude of this volcanic tremor decays gradually with time as the venting gets weaker.

Top Five Books on the Five Solas: Sola Gratia
from Keith Mathison Oct 14, 2016 Category: ArticlesIn the early fifth century, a theological controversy occurred that would forever shape the thinking of the church.

from Keith Mathison Sep 28, 2016 Category: ArticlesWhat do we mean when we say that we believe in sola Scriptura, or Scripture alone?

In the first place, we need to understand that the Reformation doctrine of sola Scriptura arose within the context of the late medieval Western church and its teaching. It was a response to perceived errors in the teaching of the Church. So what was it that the Reformers found objectionable? Keep Reading

Peach Galette / Crostata / Rustic Tart for Two - Pie Without a Pie Plate
Homemade peach pie is my favorite summer dessert. But it serves eight, and most days I'm cooking for two. Leaving me with three choices: 1) Don't make a pie, 2) Make a pie and waste at least a fourth of it because it really doesn't keep for four days, or 3) Make a pie and eat it for breakfast, lunch and dinner "so it doesn't go to waste." Some of you--and you know who you are--know what I'm talking about; I'm not the only one who does that!
The solution? Just make a little rustic tart (galette, if you prefer the French name; crostata, if you prefer the Italian). The rustic tart is quicker and easier than a pie or tart, so you really won't mind making one that just makes three or four servings. And my method of rolling out the pastry right on the baking sheet makes it a real no-muss-no-fuss project. Of course, you need a rimless baking sheet like this one, Calphalon Classic Bakeware 14-by-16-Inch Nonstick Large Insulated Cookie Sheet, to do that.
What is your favorite summer fruit, and what do you like to do with it?
Peach Galette / Crostata / Rustic Tart
(Makes one 7.5- to 8-inch round tart, 3 or 4 servings)
1 1/4 dip-and-sweep cups (6.25 ounces) unbleached all-purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons sugar
1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon baking powder
7 tablespoons chilled unsalted butter, coarsely grated
3 1/2 tablespoons ice water
1 1/2 teaspoons cider vinegar
1 tablespoon additional ice water, as needed
1 pound perfectly ripe peaches
4 tablespoons sugar, divided
1 tablespoon unbleached all-purpose flour
Pinch salt
Pinch cinnamon
Pinch nutmeg
1 Place a piece of parchment paper on rimless baking sheet; sprinkle lightly with flour. Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
2 In medium bowl, combine flour, sugar, salt and baking powder. With fingers, work grated butter into flour mixture until it has the consistency of coarse meal with some pieces the size of small peas.
3 Mix the ice water and vinegar and sprinkle onto the mixture, tossing lightly with a fork. Use additional ice water if mixture is too dry. (If I were making a regular pie, I would at this point form the dough into a ball, flatten it into a 4-inch disk, double-wrap it and refrigerate it for at least 30 minutes. No need to do that for a rustic tart.)
4 Turn dough out onto lightly floured parchment-lined baking sheet. Form it into a disk and roll out to a 12-inch circle about 1/8 inch thick. Don't worry about ragged edges; they'll add character. Place in refrigerator while preparing the peaches.
5 Peel peaches or not--I don't--and slice into a medium bowl. I slice them like this: Quarter peach, cut each quarter into 4 wedges, cut wedges in half. If this were a fancy tart, I would not cut the wedges in half; would arrange the lovely wedges in a nice pattern. But this is a rustic tart, so no need to "arrange" anything!
6 In a tiny bowl, combine 1 tablespoon of the sugar with the 1 tablespoon of flour; set aside. In another tiny bowl, combine remaining 3 tablespoons of sugar with the salt and spices; set aside.
7 Remove the pastry from the refrigerator. Sprinkle sugar-flour mixture evenly over the pastry, leaving a 2-inch border uncoated. Stir the sugar-spice mixture into the peaches and pour them into the center of the pastry, spreading them out, leaving a 2-inch border.
8 Bring that border up over the peaches a little at a time, sort of "pleating" as you go. Don't worry about making it look good. It will be rustic and beautiful. Bake for about 50 minutes or until the pastry is crisp and well browned and the fruit is bubbling.

Pies are sliced into pieces? This I did not know. I thought they WERE one piece. Why corrupt a good round piece of pie with a knife? Why not just use a fork, as God intended? Eating instructions: eat until gone. One take. No leftovers. No problem. Actually, I'm looking for a recipe for a 12 inch pie rather than the puny 8 or 9 inch variety. Peach is good. Blueberry better. Black cherry and rhubarb (if it is aged properly in the fridge to get glurpy). And of course apple is great, especially if it's from an apple caramel tree. And – oh, oh, this time I've got it – LEMON MERINGUE PIE! Lemons are a fruit, right? Please say yes.

Mmmm, I love galettes but have only made them with apples. I'll have to try this recipe since peaches are in season and tastier than ever! I might have to sprinkle some wild blackberries in there too, just for fun.
I liken galettes to a watercolor sketch, the gesture is there, but not the formality of a pie.

Okay, I'm sold! That looks delicious and I'm heading to the farmer's market next week to get peaches for my Peach Galette. I can hardly wait! This truly is a great idea because it's hard to have a whole pie (and my favorite kind, at that!) staring at me.

Beautiful little tart Jean - it looks so lovely, you have that charming rustic look down! The crust on top looks wonderful! :) I love peaches and nectarines (just bought a huge tray of white nectarines... can't wait to start wading through those tonight! My favourite summer fruit though... do you include berries? Can't beat raspberries I think :)

- Jean | DelightfulRepast.com said...
Thank you, Charles - especially about my having "that charming rustic look down"! Mmm, yes, raspberries are heavenly - nothing like homemade raspberry jam for my scones and Victoria sponge. But usually they're so expensive, I just eat them plain - very slowly, one by one.

There you are, Jean--being the temptress. Of course local 49er peaches in season at this very moment are my favorite. Personally I like option #3--but-ahem--not very good for the figure.
I love your Rustic Tart idea. But I confess I am too lazy to make a butter based crust. One made with olive oil is easier and still tasty (although not as tasty as butter-based crust).
As always your photography makes this too good to ignore. I just have to be careful a tart for two doesn't turn into a tart for one....

Sue, thank you! I must admit, I ate 3/4 of it and my skinny husband only got 1/4! If you want a super easy butter crust, look up my no-roll pie crust. Couldn't be any easier - anyone can whip it out in a hurry!

Apple sinks below $500 on report of weak demand
- Wall Street Journal says orders for iPhone 5 parts are 50%25 below expectations
- Tech giant set to report results later this month
- Shares trading at lowest level in 11 months
Apple's stock plunged below $500 on Tuesday as investors worried that the premium prices the gadget maker has enjoyed are under attack amid weaker-than-expected demand for its latest smartphone.
The latest drop in Apple stock, falling to $487 a share, was triggered by news that orders for parts that go into the iPhone 5 have been cut because demand for the phones is weaker than expected, according to a report in The Wall Street Journal. The brutal stock decline, putting it down nearly early 30% from its high, is the latest sign that Apple's untouchable position is under attack as consumers buy products from competitors or don't rush to upgrade to the latest version of an Apple product.
The WSJ report, which cited unnamed people familiar with the matter, said orders for iPhone 5 screens for the January-March quarter are about half what was expected. Orders for other types of components have also been reduced, the WSJ article said. The Journal said it was told Apple notified the suppliers of the order cut last month.
Apple didn't immediately return an e-mail seeking comment Monday.
Meanwhile, analysts aren't all that upbeat on Apple's earnings announcement, due later this month. Analysts expect the company to earn $13.46 a share in the December 2012 quarter, down 3% from the $13.87 a share it earned in the December quarter of 2011, says S&P Captial IQ. And some analysts think those expectations might be too high.
Apple's reputation as a fast-growth company appears to be waning. Apple has missed earnings estimates in three of the past five calendar quarters, including the past two straight, says FactSet. And Apple might come up short on revenue forecasts on weak iPad demand, says Mizuho Securities analyst Abhe Lamba in a report to clients.
Apple's woes come as the company has been facing increased competition from Samsung Electronics and other makers of smartphones that run Google's Android operating system. Meanwhile, shares of Nokia, the Finnish maker of the Lumia handset that runs the Windows Phone operating system, have rocketed 17% this year.
South Korea's Samsung, which sells Android-based phones at various price points, has already overtaken Apple as the world's largest smartphone vendor by market share. Over the weekend, Samsung revealed global sales of their line of Galaxy S smartphones topped 100 million. The Galaxy S III sold particularly well, topping 40 million in sales in seven months.
Android devices accounted for 75% of smartphone shipments the three months ended in September, up from 58% at the same time in 2011, according to research firm IDC. The iPhone's share stood at 15% in September, up from 14% the previous year.
Google says more than 500 million Android devices have been activated since the software's release four years ago. By comparison, Apple had sold about 271 million iPhones through last September.

Eshoo votes to defund NSA phone program

Wow! When was the last time that a significant number of Republicans and Democrats agreed on anything? Unfortunately, they did not carry the day as a slightly larger number of did not support the amendment.
I agree with Eshoo's assessment that the Patriot Act has overreached its original authority and intent, and it's time to restore balance to constitutional liberties and curtail certain surveillance practices.
With such a close outcome there's hope that the House will revisit this in the future.
a resident of Woodside: Emerald Hills

I commend Eshoo and Speier on a sensible vote.
Pelosi performed disgracefully.
a resident of Atherton: West Atherton
on Jul 29, 2013 at 6:11 pm
I respect Rep. Eshoo, although I believe she aired in supporting this bill.
Because of her prior experience on the House Intelligence Committee, I hoped she would have more fully recognized the enormous difficulties in attempting to identify and prevent the tiny activities which are individual terrorist attacks.
The NSA program was using one of our major strengths, the ability to find relationships among massive volumes of information. By imposing major time-consuming delays on collection and analysis, and also preventing its use in discovering unforeseen results, the advantage in this very long term struggle tips toward our disparate adversaries, particularly as they can gain advantages not just by successfully attacking but also by increasing the cost, delay and complexity of our responses.
I further hope that those opposed to this program will consider that the use of the information is restricted to intelligence activities. Further, those conducting these activities understand that their activities will be most effective if they prevent that barrier from ever being breached.
a resident of Woodside: Emerald Hills
on Jul 30, 2013 at 9:41 am
"prevent the tiny activities which are individual terrorist attacks"
The 'lone wolf' attack, by its very nature, will not be hampered by massively intrusive searches violating the 4th amendment. AS an example, the Times Square bomber may have made many overseas calls, was already on a watch list, yet it was an alert street vendor who called NYPD.
"I further hope that those opposed to this program will consider that the use of the information is restricted to intelligence activities."
Allow me to correct your hope: "I further hope that those opposed to this program will consider that the use of the information is HOPEFULLY restricted to intelligence activities."
You have no way of knowing whether that kind of spying on Americans is restricted to what is claimed. We don't know if Obama spied on Romney, or if Bush spied on Kerry. Consider the stakes.
See the local threads on license plate readers and the police abuse of private data. Who watches the watchers? FISA? Ha!!
FISA is a rubber stamp with no adversarial process to protect Americans or the Constitution:
Web Link
"The Obama Administration says the FISA court adequately safeguards Americans' civil liberties. Senate Majority Whip Dick Durbin, who holds the second-highest Democratic leadership position in the Senate, disagrees.
"These FISA courts—there should be a real court proceeding," he said on Sunday. "In this case, it's fixed in a way. It's loaded. There's only one case coming before the FISA court: the government's case. Let's have an advocate, or someone, standing up for civil liberties, to speak up for the privacy of Americans when they make each of these decisions, and let's release some of the transcripts, redacted, carefully redacted, so that people understand the debate that's going on in these FISA courts." When you've got a senior lawmaker calling a secret court "fixed in a way," implying that it doesn't conduct "real" proceedings, and affirming that its judges aren't hearing information that would be relevant to their decisions, that's alarming.
Unless, of course, what you want is a rubber stamp for the surveillance state."
Don't like it coming from a liberal? Shouldn't take long to find a similar quote from a libertarian. Rand (only senator to vote against the FBI Director)? You're up....
a resident of Portola Valley: Ladera
on Jul 30, 2013 at 1:10 pm
Now that Edward Snowden has alerted the Congress and the public to the excesses of the NSA, we need to thank him. Congress, which almost voted to cut some NSA programs should pass a resolution thanking Snowden and inviting him back home. No jury of his peers would convict him, only a collection of ideologues would do so. He provided a real service to the country, just like Daniel Ellsberg did after the Vietnam war.
The rush to indict him was ill advised and does not suit the current administration. Whistle blowers are sorely needed in the Federal and local government
a resident of Menlo Park: Allied Arts/Stanford Park
on Jul 30, 2013 at 10:49 pm
Yes! Fear and intimidation are becoming our norm and will get worse if no one objects, takes risks, realizing what's at stake. Called a form of checks and balances, of all types, we desperately need to not punish those who try to inform others who would not KNOW otherwise.
But the reaction came from bigger fish with large agendas.

At Keystone we do things differently, and have since we first opened our doors in 1996. This different way means focusing on you, our customer, and building RVs that are much more than great floor plans and prices. It starts with innovative products that are built tough, and doesn't stop there. It's our commitment to provide a better ownership experience. We understand that when you put your hard earned money down, you expect your RV to deliver as promised. That's why "Building Adventures for the Long Haul" is more than just a slogan here at Keystone; it is our number one mission each and every day. It's the reason today we are honored to say we have nearly one million Keystone owners out on the open road who we consider family.

www.hillsborobanner.com now offers RSS feeds (or channels) for most of its sections.
All you have to do is choose which RSS feeds you want, for instance an RSS feed of all the latest local news from www.hillsborobanner.com.
Different News Readers work on different operating systems, so you will need to take this into account when you make your choice.

For a while now I have been focusing on documenting the accomplishments of Attorney General Eric Holder and the Department of Justice - especially the Civil Rights Division.
That's partly because no other federal department was more distorted and dismantled than this one during the Bush years. Mr. Holder had a huge job walking into that mess and I've been more than a little impressed with how he's performed.
In addition, some critics of the Obama administration try to say that he's not done enough for the African American community. These stories put a lie to that critique.
This page will serve to document that ongoing story.

I'm in complete denial that summer is over. At least, Oktoberfest is a nice way to ease in fall. I can drown my sorrows if need be. Our brief visit to Germany this spring has left us with intrigued with it's food. We've long loved its beer and I've grown up with several dishes (Sauerbraten, Jägerschnitzel and spaetzle ) but this year we have developed new found love for currywurst. It's the ultimate street food, pork sausage served with a ketchup curry sauce. There is a fantastic place in Hollywood called Berlin Currywurst. It left us wishful for a comparable place near home.
I heard about Cafe Berlin on the west side near Decatur/215. We recently stopped in for dinner. We were warmly greeted and led to a table for two. My husband had currywurst with potato salad and I could resist the comfort of Jägerschnitzel and spaetzle. Food was served timely. The currywurst wasn't appealing to the eye, but I couldn't wait to dig into the schnitzel.
The schnitzel was delicious. Better then Cafe Heidelberg and world's better than Hofbräuhaus. Tender pork, crisp breading, creamy mushroom sauce. It could've only been better washed down with a full stein. Hopefully, they'll get their liquor license soon.
Now, the currywurst, on the other hand, wasn't up to par. The sauce itself was quite good, but the sausage? It was terribly fatty. The texture was very unpleasant. After a few bites we could eat no more. Fortunately, the schnitzel was enough for two.
We were bummed we came up empty on the currywurst, but it was nice to find a well prepared schnitzel.

Stevens Graduate Tim Meehan Images the Future
Stevens Institute of Technology graduate Tim Meehan is putting his degrees in Biomedical Engineering and Technology Management to good use. Having completed four years at the New Jersey Medical School at University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey (UMDNJ), he is now preparing for his radiology residency at Massachusetts General Hospital, which is generally considered to be the top residency site in the country.
"The quality of the programs at Stevens can best be measured by the success of our students," says Dr. Philip Leopold, Professor and Department Director of Chemistry, Chemical Biology and Biomedical Engineering at Stevens. "Tim's acceptance into a Residency Program at Massachusetts General Hospital, a hospital that is perennially ranked among the top few hospitals in the country, is a remarkable and enviable achievement that should inspire our current students toward even greater accomplishments."
Following one year of training in internal medicine at UMDNJ-Newark, Tim will leave in 2011 for Massachusetts General Hospital, where he will complete a four-year residency. Afterwards he plans to do a one-year fellowship, perhaps in his current interest of interventional radiology. From there, he hopes to apply his learning to help others through non-invasive technology.
Tim's fascination with radiology began in the Charles V. Schaefer Jr. School of Engineering and Science, in a Biomedical Engineering class titled Medical Instrumentation and Imaging. The class explored how imaging studies like Computed Tomography (CT) and Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) scans translate data into pictures that clinicians can use to diagnose diseases.
"Stevens was extremely helpful in preparing me for what I do now," Tim says. "The curriculum is challenging and prepares you for the workload you are expected to handle in medical school and as a physician." Of course, Tim was also able to schedule in baseball, standing out his senior season with a .423 batting average and school records in runs, games won, total bases, and career home runs. It was a combination of classes, sports, and community that shaped Tim's learning at Stevens.
"I think Stevens' community atmosphere allowed me to build long-term relationships that I might not have had at bigger schools," Tim says. "In particular I had a great overall experience in the biomedical engineering department. Dr. Ritter and Dr. Hazelwood get to know everyone in the biomedical programs and are great student advocates."
"Tim was a pleasure to have in class. He fulfilled all the requirements for being an engineer, and at the same time, while you're a biomedical engineering student, you fulfill the undergraduate requirements for medical school," says Dr. Vikki Hazelwood, Industry Professor of Biomedical Engineering in the Charles V. Schaefer Jr. of Engineering and Science. "Tim's achievements are rewarding to all of us; he is an excellent result of what we prepared him for."
Tim graduated Stevens in 2006 with a B.E. degree in Biomedical Engineering and a M.S. in Technology Management. He attended UMDNJ from 2006 to 2010, where his interest in radiology grew. Thanks to his multi-disciplinary degrees from Stevens, Tim had an understanding of medical business and technology to complement the patient care he learned at UMDNJ. Tim also credits the hands-on learning opportunities he experienced through internships and co-op programs at Stevens with helping him through the residency interview process.
"It is interesting that Tim had the academic and service credentials to attend medical school just about anywhere he wanted to go. He chose UMDNJ-New Jersey Medical School because of its location in a large urban area. This fit in with his long-term goals of teaching the next generation of physicians and conducting medical research," says Dr. Arthur Ritter, a Distinguished Service Professor and Director of the Biomedical Engineering Program at Stevens.
Tim says he is pursuing radiology because in all his clinical rotations, it was radiology that he found most challenging and gratifying: "challenging because of the sheer volume and diversity of cases a radiologist interprets on a daily basis and gratifying because as a radiologist you're essentially diagnosing the disease, which is the first step to treatment and in some cases, even part of the treatment."
Diagnosing and treating patients fulfills Tim's desire to help others - a desire that he says grew out of his work in Biomedical Engineering at Stevens.
"I believe that the responsibility of a doctor doesn't end at treating patients, but leading the next generation of physicians and helping advance medicine. So along with performing my clinical duties, I hope to teach at a large academic institution and contribute significantly to research, using my skills and technical knowledge that I learned at Stevens and combining it with my medical degree," Tim says. "For me, a dream is to build a medical school or hospital in rural India."

Here are some topics in physics and philosophy on which my work is incomplete. I invite my friends in this assembly, and their colleagues and students, to continue the work and inform me about their progress.
1. There is a well known theorem of Wigner that a necessary condition for a quantity M of a physical system O to be measured without distortion (i.e., if O is in an eigenstate u of M just prior to the measurement then it remains in u immediately afterwards) is the commutation of M with any additive conserved quantity. This theorem has been generalized by Stein and Shimony by relaxing the condition without distortion, but the natural full generalization has neither been proven nor refuted by a counter-example.
2. In two-particle interferometry, using an ensemble of pairs of
particles in a pure entangled state ?, the fringe visibility V12
of pairs counted in coincidence may be defined analogously to the fringe visibility V1 of single particles, and a complementarity relation has been derived: V12 + V122 = 1. Generalizations of this complementarity relation to n-tuples (n ?2) of entangled particle are desired.
3. Relations have been explored among various reasonable definitions of degree of entanglement, but further systematization of these relations is desirable.
4. Bells Theorem shows that certain quantum mechanical predictions
cannot be derived in any local realistic theory, and experiments have overwhelmingly favored quantum mechanics in situations of theoretical conflict. Is it plausible to maintain peaceful coexistence between the nonlocality of quantum mechanics and the locality of relativity theory by citing the impossibility of using the former to send superluminal messages? But if this strategy fails, what is the proper adjudication of the conflict between these fundamental physical theories?
5. Stochastic modification of quantum dynamics (proposed by Ghirardi-Rimini-Weber, Gisin, Pearle, Wigner, Penrose, Károlyházy, and others) has been proposed as a promising program for solving the quantum mechanical measurement problem. But theoretical refinements of the proposed modifications are desirable as well as definitive experimental tests. Two promising areas of relevant experimental research are quantum gravity and variants of the quantum telegraph (an ensemble of atoms undergoing transitions between the ground state and a metastable state when exposed to appropriate laser beams).
6. Corinaldesi conjectured that the boson statistics of integral spin particles and the fermion statistics of half-integral spin particles
are consequences of their dynamics rather than of their kinematics
(the latter usually accepted because of Paulis spin and statistics theorem), so that obedience to the Pauli Exclusion Principle in a freshly formed ensemble of electrons would become increasingly strict as the ensemble ages. To test Corinaldesis conjecture it was proposed to form fresh ensembles of electrons by allowing a high velocity beam of Ne+ ions in a linear accelerator to be intersected by electrons from an electron gun, thereby neutralizing a subset of the ions. Transitions of electrons to the doubly occupied 1S shell in the complete Ne atoms will be monitored by suitable x-ray detectors at varying distances from the region of intersection, in order to scrutinize the conjectured diminution with time of violations of the Exclusion Principle. Refinements of this design and actual performance of the experiment are requested.
7. A test of the speculative conjecture that wave packet reduction
is a psycho-physical phenomenon, occurring only when a conscious
observer reads a measuring device, was performed in 1977 by three of my undergraduate students. They used a slow gamma emitter (about one emission per minute) monitored by a detector connected to registration devices in two separated rooms. There was a short time delay between the two registrations. The observer in the first room read his registration device in randomly chosen intervals of time and the observer in...

Afws – the best products in the electronic cigarette world. You'll find our top brand picks for 2014, as well as in-depth reviews. We're just normal every day working people who made the switch and feel strongly about eliminating second hand smoke from society. We created this review site to fill a void as we had trouble interpreting which brands were considered the best.
What Makes Our Reviews Different?
Unlike some sites that just read about e-cigarettes and provide an opinion, we actually show you, on camera, that we've not only obtained these devices, but also used them. It doesn't hurt that one of our family members owns a tobacco shop and we are able to secure product samples very cheap since he has distributors of various brands knocking down his door.
As of January 2, 2014, we've used over 150 brands of e-cigs or e-juices.
Noteworthy Mention:
One brand that has caught our attention is Vaporzone. These are awesome for anyone looking for tons of options for upgraded batteries and e-cig mods and tanks. They do custom blends of e-juice, and do also have some nice affordable standard e-cigs, though their upgraded models are KILLER!
Read our VaporZone review here

Some Of The Top Brands
Holding e cig brands against each other and trying to compare them is not always easy. Their starter kits are configured differently from one another and some brands carry more than one type of e-cig.
Certain brands belong to larger, parent companies and are similar to a few other products also available. Each firm has its own focus which makes it so different from the rest. There might not be a lot of common ground.
What makes a brand of electronic cigarettes so popular and others less so? Why do particular models and brands routinely wind up in the top ten leaving others to cough on their dust?
In particular, why is V2 Cigs almost always at or close to the top of rankings tables along with Halo, Green Smoke, and Vapor Zone? Could Bull Smoke ever catch up?
In the following article you will see products from:
- V2 Cigs
- Green Smoke
- Vapor Zone
- Halo Cigs
- Bull Smoke
- Cigavette
- Eversmoke
- Volcano ECigs
- Premium Vapes
- Vapor Couture
- South Beach Smoke
Take a look at the similarities and also the differences between them. Within those descriptions, you will find out why choosing can be very difficult, but also discover elements that make it easier to select a brand.
Bull Smoke
I will start with Bull Smoke because they have a nice simple selection. Recently they appear to be growing, adding accessories to two starter kits, really cheap disposables ($5), and a selection of three battery styles.
They only carry 10 cartomizer flavors, hitting a nice base of all the basic flavors. Also, since adding accessories, Bull Smoke has honed in to carry just one starter kit.
Now they carry only the Ranch Hand, but that is the same kit essentially now that vapers have the choice of any flavors they want. A City Slicker offered all ten flavors in one kit and the Ranch Hand contained flavors chosen for the client. Two kits are blended into one, but for the amazingly low price of $29.95.
This kit contains:
• A USB charger
• A wall adapter
• 10 cartridges
• 2 batteries
Price is unbelievable and quality is very good. This is the cheapest you can get started vaping with a top quality product. After seeing some of their changes, I am thinking, and hoping we may see some more products from Bull Smoke. Not sure what, maybe an upgraded battery of some sort.
V2 Cigs
Appearances between V2 Cigs and Bull Smoke are fairly similar. They both prefer the cigarette-like style, which coaxes smokers to try vaping. V2 Cigs, however, provides loads of starter kits right up to $150+ packages containing several batteries, cases, and so on. Theirs is a more tenacious business. V2 also makes blank cartridges, so if you want to fill up with e-liquid you can. Bull Smoke does not provide this choice.
Both companies run affiliate programs whereby consumers turn their love of vaping into an earning opportunity, but the V2 Cigs site provides more detail about profitability for affiliates than the Bull Smoke one does, and you have to ask yourself if a cheap starter kit is going to yield a lot of money on 20% returns.
V2 Blanks can be filled with V2 e-liquid, or you can opt for some other brand. If you have grown out of their choice of pre-filled cartomizers or dislike their flavor, many people have discovered that e-liquid is more authentic in certain instances and also cheaper when it comes to refilling.
V2 Cigs gives consumers a third choice, something I have not seen before: custom pre-filled cartridges. You have to buy 100 at a time, but the choice of blend is yours, no matter how outrageous.
They have also added the EX line with:
• 4 choices of patterns
• EX blanks
• Bigger batteries
• More power
Green Smoke
Here are the highlights of this iconic e-cigarette brand:
• Recycling customers' used cartridges for loyalty points
• Fresh, hygienic, specially-tested and wrapped cartridges
• Fantastic vapor
• Lots of starter kit packages
Granted, Green Smoke commands a higher price point, but for the service and quality they provide, we'll never hesitate to recommend them. They are a PIONEER in this space.
Vapor Zone
There is so much buzz around Vapor Zone that vapers want to know where the honey is. They will find at Vapor Zone not just analog-style vaping but also eGo and mod style products. They carry 6 starter kits, from a Cigalike to a Rebel mechanical mod. Each kit comes with one or two batteries, the necessary tank or cartridge, atomizers as required, chargers, but one thing is missing: e-liquid.
Will you care? Vapor Zone sells lots of e-liquid options: about 30,000 possible flavors, plus pre-filled cartomizers. The flavors you can select include:
• Most fruits
• Marshmallow
• Amaretto
• Cotton candy
That is a short list for a lot of selection and does not include blends you might create. Vapor Zone is also available for shopping in person with multiple Florida stores, especially in the area of Miami where their vape bars are popular.
Halo Cigs
Halo sells just two types of e-cigs and one kit for each. Each package is fully customizable so you can choose a color, battery power, and battery style. With the G6 analog-type e-cig starter kit (about $45), you get:
• A beautiful box
• 2 batteries, manual or automatic
• 9 color options
• A choice of pre-filled flavors or blank cartridges
• Both chargers
• A totally user-friendly product
The Triton is an eGo cigarette that is available for less than $70 with:
• Your choice of e-liquid from Halo Purity
• 2 high-powered batteries
• Tanks
• A cone
• Chargers
• 11 possible colors
Flavor choices at Halo differ from the rest because they do not feature hookah styles.
Though analog colors are available, most people would say that is a boring way to go when you could have Emerald Green or Demon Red.
Halo also has nice customer service ratings.
In the following article you will see products from:
The makers of Cigavette keep the idea simple: switch from cigarettes to e cigs and stay with what you know. They sell tobacco- and menthol-flavored vaping pens in three styles of starter kits and just a couple of color options. "Fancy" is for other brands.
Kit number one costs $24.95, comes with two cartridges (tobacco or menthol), and contains one battery. You also receive an Intella USB charger. The 6 choices are just divisions between nicotine levels plus one dedicated to menthol vapers.
Kit two is a Premier Standard Set. Two 4.2-volt batteries, six cartridges, a USB charger, wall adapter, and carry case cost $59.95. The other Premier, a Super Set, costs $20 more and comes with a car adapter. You also get to select a carry case or PCC.
The third style of starter kit gives you more power: a VIP GO. The Ultra Kit ($99.95) contains two 650mAh batteries in black satin or polished stainless steel with blue or orange LED lights. Choose 10 pre-filled menthol or tobacco cartridges. The charger set, cartridge cover, and velvet carry case complete the set. A VIP GO Mega for $129.95 provides two 1300mAh batteries, but every other feature is the same.
Those who desire fruity cartridges will have to buy disposable e-hookahs from Cigavette for $8.95 each, and the last choice of flavor is for cigar users: a Cuvana disposable providing about 1,800 puffs over as much as 2 years for $29.95.
Premium Vapes
Premium Vapes carries more cartridge flavors than Cigavette, standards like:
• Chocolate
• Apple
• Blueberry
• Clove
• Cola
Their selection is pretty ordinary. They also carry the regular lineup of e-cigs in three possible kits. For $19.95, buy a version of the $24.95 Cigavette package above. Choose a "Get Started Kit" for $59.95 to own two batteries, a case, chargers, and five cartridges. A "Get Social Kit" resembles this one except it comes with more cartridges and an extra charger.
Like Cigavette, Premium Vapes knows that e-cig users quickly choose to either give up vaping after they have weaned off of nicotine or they switch to eGo cigs after a short time. They carry high-powered batteries for $39.95 each. The Cigavette system gets more powerful but maintains the analog look, though a bit longer. Premium Vapes eGo batteries are the usual, fatter eGos, though they do not appear to sell cartridges or tanks for them.
Vapor Couture
Women who like the way a slim cigarette feels are generally the ones attracted to Vapor Couture. They appreciate feminine colors like rose gold and deep purple and bling provided by a crystal-tipped LED. Premium Vapes offers this option along with pink batteries, but they cannot go so far as to provide classy cases and so on. Vapor Couture sells five starter kits, the fullest of which (a Maximale) costs over $200 and comes with:
• A metal carry case with a sliding lid and mirror
• An e-cig necklace with a charm
• A clutch with removable straps
Of course, practical items are also present like batteries, chargers, and refills. Flavors are severely limited, but not as limited as Cigavette. With just six choices and no way to refill cartridges, beauty might not be enough to make this a constant favorite. Other brands are for daily use; Vapor Couture is for parties and for women.
Volcano ECigs
Volcano has been providing three styles of e cigs for a while now. The Magma is a regular e-cig; the Inferno is an advanced e-cig, like an eGo; LAVATUBE provides the control and power of a mechanical mod. Volcano was thinking ahead to their customers' future e-cig use even before many firms thought to add an eGo.
In the Magma, for $59.99, you receive:
• 10 cartridges
• 2 batteries
• An M Pack (PCC)
• A wall charging adapter
• A mini USB cable
• A USB eCig battery charger
• A gift box
The biggest difference between Volcano and the rest is the breadth of flavor choices and the option to pick up blank cartomizers (and now tankomizers) for the Magma, not to mention the tanks for Inferno and LAVATUBE. They sell loads of e-liquid flavors.
South Beach Smoke and Eversmoke
The reason South Beach Smoke and Eversmoke are listed together is that they belong to one parent company and are similar-looking. They sell standard e-cig starter kits: analog-style products with atomized cartridges attached. Eversmoke starter kits range from $29.99 (that express kit again, this one over-priced) to $99.99. South Beach Smoke sells kits from $21.99 (right between Premium Vapes and Cigavette) to $159.99 Deluxe. Prices can get that high when a package contains extra batteries or those batteries are more powerful than usual (South Beach Smoke provides one standard and two extra-capacity batteries in the Deluxe Ultimate). The Deluxe Ultimate also contains a power cig, PCC, and 20 cartridges.
Like Eversmoke, South Beach Smoke carries pre-filled atomized cartridges in a limited selection of flavors, a selection that is slightly wider at South Beach Smoke. Eversmoke customers wanting to upgrade are directed to Vapor Zone products. South Beach Smoke clients can buy tanks and eGo batteries. Eversmoke clients are sent to Vapor Zone for liquid. At South Beach Smoke, Vapor Zone e-liquids are sold under the South Beach Smoke label, but they are exactly the same. Reviewers indicate that Eversmoke and South Beach Smoke provide similar performance, but the latter is better known and offers a bit mor

I was not impressed having to remove the press to clean out the primers from decapping, or a fan of the gap that allows primer gunk to fall through to your floor or bench, soOoOo I made a primer reroute out of some cheap supplies from the hardware store to assist. I am sure you could make it nicer if you want, but this works just fine on this 30$ press.
I heated up a piece of plastic pipe, bent it to the side I wanted primers to flow, cut it on the top, drilled press, fit the plastic to the hole, and then epoxy it into place (epoxy may not be needed if the fit is good enough for you)
Total for the mod was around 5$ with the tools already handy. (drill, snips, and maybe a dremel)
Mod works great and you get a nice audible noise from the plastic when the primer hits the tube.
To catch the primers, I used a lid from a jelly jar to slide under the blue 'catch tube'
Here are the pics for if you decide to Mod your own! My mod was for the Inline Fabrication quick change plate, so I didn't have to keep removing the press from the plate.. felt like that aspect of the press kind of defeats the purpose of it being 'quick change' - But not any longer. :thumb:
*Updated with a Mod for the primer flow hole that is cast into the body of the press. The 'Primer Reroute' mod did not fix the 'Primer Lock-up' from where the primers can travel down the tube slowly and fall between the press body and the ram, So I decided to go ahead and make this cheap-o press work 100%.. The 'Lock-up Solution' Mod is just a U cut piece of the same blue tube that I used for the 'Reroute' mod, that is glued in between the ram and the cast hole for the primers to fall into. I have included a picture for you to see how simple this is to accomplish. 1,000 + primers removed and no 'Lock-Up' - Compared to a ram lock about every 50-100 primers punched. Luckily this will help people who use this solely as a decapping station and have ran into this inconvenience.
I had to purchase a 12' piece of this blue tube to make the mod and I have plenty extra. Send me a PM and I will send you a piece long enough to fit yours if you would like.
