Research Interests: I am an environmental animal physiologist broadly interested in the evolution of complex physiological processes and in how organisms respond and adapt to the environment. A major focus of my research is directed toward understanding what fundamental molecular and regulatory changes are responsible for the capacity to support intrauterine embryonic development during the evolutionary transition from oviparity (egg-laying) to viviparity (live-bearing) in reptiles. Because the evolution of physiological systems involves alterations to numerous integrated processes, my approach to research necessarily draws upon techniques and methodologies from disparate disciplines spanning molecular biology to ecology.
- Regulation of placental angiogenesis (blood vessel formation) and its role in the evolution of viviparity
- Evolution of placental complexity in vertebrates
- Evolution of maternal care in reptiles
- Nesting ecology of diamondback terrapins

According to the first police officers to arrive at the Hilltop Drive home of Svetlana and Robert Bell Saturday night, Svetlana had been shot and was lying on the kitchen floor, and Robert Bell, her husband, was in the living room.
Someone was performing CPR on Svetlana when police arrived, the court file says. This person's identity was redacted from the police report.
State Troopers John Artes and John Moreno said in their written arrest report they were sent to the Bell's New Fairfield house at about 7:18 p.m. for a reported domestic disturbance.
Robert Bell, 63, of New Fairfield, said in his 911 call to police he had shot his wife three or four times because she was coming at him with a knife. Police found a .38 caliber pistol in a holster on a chair. They found a loaded magzaine in Robert Bell's pocket.
He was immediately charged with disorderly conduct, and was read his rights at 8:16 p.m. — two minutes after his wife, Svetlana, was declared dead at Danbury Hospital, the report said.
Robert Bell was later charged with first-degree manslaughter with a firearm.
State Troopers Artes and Moreno said they went to the New Fairfield Resident Trooper's office to hear the 911 call. They heard Bell say he shot his wife three or four times because she was coming at her with a knife, according to court records. Police said in the background they could hear a woman's voice ask, "What have you done?"
Robert Bell was arraigned in state Superior Court at Danbury Monday. He was represented by Public Defender Mark Johnson before Superior Court Judge John Blawie. Making an argument to keep bond below $500,000, Johnson noted that Robert Bell has no prior criminal record, has family in the area, he earned a bachelor's degree and held the same job for 14 years before retiring.
In the end, Judge Blawie set bond at $750,000 and ordered that Bell surrender his passport and obey a protective order to have no contact with his daughter. His case was continued to Jan. 7 at state Superior Court at Danbury.
Svetlana Bell, 47, was a music teacher at Wilton's Cider Mill School, and a member of the Danbury Symphony Orchestra.
Robert Bell is retired, and he last worked for 14 years with Beta Squared Lithography on Federal Road in Brookfield.

The university is seeking approval from the Board of Regents on Wednesday to implement the first of a five-year plan to raise rates on students, employees and visitors who park cars in campus lots and ramps.
Under the five-year plan, hourly parking in ramps would gradually increase from 75 cents per hour to $1. Meters would go up from 90 cents per hour to $1.20. A one-year permit for a commuter lot would increase to $324 from $240, and a host of other fees would increase.
University officials say the increases would be the first since 2009 and be used to construct and replace parking structures, support a new children's hospital, and other services.

New York Knicks Season Outlook
The New York Knicks are among the biggest stars in New York and each season hundreds of thousands of basketball fans travel to Madison Square Garden to see the team in action. The Knicks have made a number of changes in the offseason, which General Manager Steve Mills hopes has turned New York basketball into a championship contender. The trio of Carmelo Anthony, Andrea Bargnani and Tyson Chandler should provide some good offense and you can be there to watch the action. Anthony continues to be one of the premier players in the NBA and can be counted on to give the Knicks a win any game he is in. With Tyson Chandler crashing the boards, the Knicks are going to get their chances to put the basketball in the hole. In the 2013 NBA draft, the Knicks picked up shooting guard Tim Hardaway Jr. from the University of Michigan, and he gives the Knicks some depth off the bench. Point Guard Jason Kidd retired at the end of the season and will be the new coach of the Brooklyn Nets in the fall, so it will add a little extra drama to the Knicks vs Nets rivalry. The team is counting on Pablo Prigioni to pick up where Kidd left off, but he has some big shoes to fill. All in all this team has the offensive pieces to contend for a championship, they just need to execute.
But while the Knicks offense should be potent, they will need to step up their defense. Tyson Chandler is a solid defensive player, but he will need some help to stop the opposition. As a way to help the defense, the Knicks were also able to pick up the LA Lakers defensive specialist Metta World Peace (AKA Ron Artest), who will try to prove his worth on the East Coast. Lastly, they have also made a replacement in their management, with GM Glen Grunwald leaving and the former Madison Square Garden President, Steve Mills, taking over. The Knicks will attempt to make a serious run for the NBA playoffs in 2014, and may be a strong competitor to win it all. They'll face the competition of the Miami Heat, Brooklyn Nets and Indiana Pacers in particular, but if the Knicks stay healthy and play to their ability, anything is possible.
The previous season for the Knicks was one of the best in recent memory. During the offseason they were able to acquire veteran point guard Jason Kidd, who replaced Jeremy Lin (Rockets). Unfortunately, their star center Amar'e Stoudemire was injured for most of the season with a knee injury, which put them in a weak position under the net. With that in mind, their leading scorer Carmelo Anthony stepped up and played a crucial role for the team. With multiple Player of the Week awards, along with a rarely seen double-double in consecutive games, 'Melo sure was the glue that held the team together. After starting at an impressive 18-5 record (best since 1993), they went on to finish 54-28 and collected the Atlantic Division title. In the first round of the playoffs they defeated the well-performing Boston Celtics in 6 games, but fell in the next round to the Indiana Pacers. But the Knicks managed to perform with the best teams in the league last season and are looking to pick up where they left off.
Knicks Rivalries
Other New York sports teams
As one of the NBA's oldest teams, as well as one of the most visible, it's no surprise that the Knicks have fostered some heated rivalries over the years. Some sports fans make a special trip to New York City just to watch their team take on the Knicks at the fabled MSG. The only thing better than watching the Knicks play at home is watching them take on one of their big rivals, because you know the MSG crowd is going to be insane. One thing to keep in mind is that ticket priced for these games are sometimes more expensive than they normally are, so if you find a price you like you should snag it up fast. Here's a look at some of the bigger Knicks rivalries.
Knicks vs. Nets - The Battle of New York
While there was always a rivalry between the Knicks and the Nets when they were known as the New Jersey Nets, the franchise's move to Brooklyn in 2012 ratcheted up the competition to a considerable degree. Now they were both New York teams, fighting for the hearts of the citizenry as well as media coverage on television and the city's many tabloids. While the change to the Brooklyn Nets was big, what really intensified the Knicks Nets rivalry was Nets owner Mikhail Prokhorov's incredible amount of spending. Prokhorov has spared no expense on fielding a contender, and has intensified the pressure on Knicks Owner James Dolan as well as GM Steve Mills to keep the Knicks as the Big Apple's favorite basketball team. With the intensity of New Yorker's love for basketball, demand for Knicks vs. Nets tickets has gone through the roof, as everyone wants to be a part of this rivalry. Wether the Nets Knicks game is at Madison Square Garden or the Brooklyn's Barclays Arena, you know the crowd is going to be into it. So if you can make it to a game, don't pass up a chance to enjoy one of the most intense atmospheres in sports.
Knicks vs. Celtics - New York vs Boston
As another avenue for the intense rivalry between New York and Boston, the Celtics and Knicks have had their share of intense games. Both teams have a passion for their city few teams can match, and a Knicks win tastes so much sweeter when it comes against the Celtics. When you look at the passion of other New York Boston rivalries like Yankees vs Red Sox, Giants vs Patriots, and Rangers vs Bruins, it's no surprise that Celtics Knicks tickets are as popular as they are. There have been some classic Celtics vs Knicks moments over the years, including Patrick Ewing bringing the Knicks back from a 2-0 series deficit in the first round of the 1990 Eastern Conference playoffs. That series saw Ewing put up 44 points in a 135-108 win in game four to force a game five. Many Knick fans also recall fondly Bernard King and his 44 points to lead the Knicks to a 106-104 win in Game 7 of the 1984 Eastern Conference Semifinals. You never know what you will see when you buy tickets for a Knicks vs Celtics game, so miss the opportunity of seeing one in person.
Knicks vs. Heat - Melo vs. LeBron
As Carmelo Anthony and LeBron James entered the NBA in the same season, with James the #1 pick and Anthony the #2 in the draft, there was always competition between the two. That competition wasn't as pronounced when they both played in smaller markers, but when Anthony joined the Knicks and James took his talents to South Beach to join the Miami Heat, the Knicks vs Heat rivalry became something meaningful, and both players turn up the juice when they face each other. These are two of the best players to play the game, and there is always a chance that something special will happen when they are both on the court together. Add to the Knicks Heat rivalry the star-power of James, and you can imagine that Knicks vs Heat tickets are some of the most popular in the NBA. Don't pass up a chance to watch these teams battle and get your tickets for a Heat Knicks game before its too late.
NY Knicks Team History
The New York Knicks (formally the Knickerbockers) are a professional basketball team located in New York City, New York. They play in the Atlantic Division of the Eastern Conference in the NBA. The Knicks are one of the founding members of the Basketball Association of America(BAA), which merged with the National Basketball league (NBL) in 1949 to form the current NBA league. The Knicks have won two NBA Championships in the history of their franchise (1970 and 1973), along with 8 Conference titles and 5 Division titles. They play their home games at Madison Square Garden located in Manhattan, New York. In the 1980's they struggled heavily, both on the court and in attendance for their games, but a strong comeback to prominence in the 90's with star Patrick Ewing among others brought more attention to the franchise. Today the they are one of the premier teams in the league, despite having not won an NBA Championship in 30 years.
Knicks Fast Facts:
The Knicks have certainly been one of the most entertaining teams in the NBA over the last few decades, from the Patrick Ewing-led Knicks heartbreaking loss to the Houston Rockets in 1993 NBA Finals' seventh game while nemesis Michael Jordan was off playing baseball, to the epic battles with Reggie Miller and the Pacers and the failed Isiah Thomas tenure. The Knicks were able to acquire one of the premier stars of the day when they were able to Sign Carmelo Anthony for the start of the 2011 season. And who could forget the Linsanity of the 2012 season, when the unheralded Jeremy Lin came of the bench to stun the NBA world by leading the struggling Knicks to an unexpected winning streak. Who knows what you'll see when you get Knicks tickets, you might see the birth of the next Jeremy Lin. Just being in Madison Square Garden is a thrill in and of itself, but taking in a Knicks game is really a treat, so get your tickets today!
The Knicks and Madison Square Garden
The Knicks of course play home games at the historic Madison Square Garden, which recently underwent massive renovations. MSG is one of the most beloved venues in all of sports, with a capacity of 19,812 for NBA games. Hearing the crowd at MSG go nuts after a big shot is like nothing else, and if you buy tickets just getting into the venue is worth it. There are few arenas that can equal the MSG in terms of scale, and it is truly a great place to see a sporting event.

The woman driving of the car, who has yet to be indentified by police, was taken to the Nebraska Medical Center in serious condition.
Witnesses tell Channel 6 News they saw the woman driving erratically, knocking down construction barriers and signs, before she crashed into the hole.
The hole is due to construction on the road in the area, where traffic is pushed down to one westbound lane starting near 75th Street at Center.
MUD was called to the scene because the car came to rest on an exposed waterline; it was shut off until the car can be removed.
Police say a crane will be used to hoist the Blue, Ford Escape up and out of the hole.

Dec. 20, 2012
TALLAHASSEE, Fla. - After a run to the College World Series and a top four finish to end the 2012 season, the Florida State baseball team will open the 2013 campaign ranked No. 19 in Collegiate Baseball Newspaper's Preseason top 40 poll.
Florida State returns 20 players including five positions starters and nine pitchers who threw at least 15.0 innings last year. Despite losing three starting infielders, a starter in center field and one of the top closers in the nation, the Seminoles welcome back four starting pitchers in Freshmen All-Americans Mike Compton and Brandon Leibrandt, senior right hander Scott Sitz and junior right hander Peter Miller. Catcher Stephen McGee is also back after starting all 67 games from behind the plate a season ago.
Senior captain Justin Gonzalez will pace the Seminole offense as the top returning hitter in runs scored (42), hits (54), home runs (9) and RBI (42). Sophomore Jose Brizuela, who made a majority of his starts in left field, will move to third base in 2013, while Seth Miller and Josh Delph, who played significant innings last year, will see playing time in the outfield.
There are plenty of new faces in the clubhouse this year as the Seminoles welcome 16 newcomers including nine freshmen and seven junior college transfers. This year's incoming class, which was also ranked 19th-nationally by Collegiate Baseball, is made up of five pitchers (including two left handers), five infielders, four outfielders, one catcher and one utility player (listed on the roster at two or more positions including pitcher and catcher).
Four of the student-athletes in this year's incoming class were selected in the MLB First Year Player Draft - three in 2012 and one in 2010. Those four individuals include two-sport standout Jameis Winston (15th round, Texas), DJ Stewart (28th round, NY Yankees), John Sansone (39th round, Detroit) and Hayden Jordan (49th round in 2010, Baltimore).
Thirteen teams featured on the 2013 schedule recorded 30 or more wins a season ago. Seven schools earned a bid to participate in the 2012 NCAA Regional, while six teams are featured in the top 40 preseason rankings.
The Seminoles will look to return to Omaha in 2013 when the season begins Friday, February 15 at 4:00 p.m. as Florida State hosts the University of Rhode Island for a three-game series on Mike Martin Field inside Dick Howser Field.

Smudgey and Riley are two very gentle, lovable young boys. Smudgey is the tabby and white cat who is about one year old. Riley is the brown tabby and he is about five months old. These two formerly stray cats became fast friends in their foster home and so we are in search of a home where these two pals can stay together. If you have a dog who likes cats, Smudgey and Riley would especially love to meet you. They are great with the Lab-size dog in their foster home and love cuddling up with her. Smudgey and Riley are playful and affectionate with adults and children once they get to know you. They are shy with new people and so they will do best in a somewhat quiet home. Please call Neponset Valley Humane Society at 781-769-1990 or email firstname.lastname@example.com to arrange a meeting with Smudgey and Riley. Due to the severe cat overpopulation problem and in an effort to encourage lifelong adoptions, NVHS does not have set adoption fees for our adult cats. Every cat is of course spayed/neutered.
Other Humane Society News: NVHS volunteers are thankful to the many adopters helping pets in need. Millions of pets lose their lives in overcrowded shelters simply due to overpopulation. We can prevent this tragedy through responsible pet ownership and spay/neuter. If you need assistance getting your cat spayed/neutered, please contact NVHS. The low cost spay/neuter clinic for cats will be in Norwood on Wednesday, Feb. 13, call for an appointment. You can see all our pets waiting to be adopted at neponsethumane.org. NVHS is an all volunteer, all foster care organization.

EUGENE, Ore. — The clanks and booms of heavy machinery interrupt an otherwise quiet, gray morning.
This is what winning football sounds like at Oregon.
A few hundred yards from where the Ducks practice, construction crews are erecting yet another athletic building, a team complex that — bound in black metal and glass — will rival anything the NFL has to offer.

On the Set of Atlas Shrugged Part II
Production is now underway on the second installment of the movie adaptation of Ayn Rand's famous novel.
Atlas Shrugged Part I, the 2011 film version of Ayn Rand's hugely influential novel Atlas Shrugged, was the result of a decades-long journey, and its sole financier, John Aglialoro—a successful serial entrepreneur best known for running the exercise equipment company Cybex—found the costs and troubles more than he bargained for.
Official critical reception wasn't so great—though normal folk seemed to like it better than the credentialed tastemakers, according to fim review sites such as Metacritic and Rotten Tomatoes. For a brief moment even Rand-inspired businessman Aglialoro, new to filmmaking and brought to the business through his love of Rand and desire to bring her message to a movie audience, was discouraged. He told critics last April "you won" and said he was reconsidering whether or not to move forward with filming parts two and three.
By January, buoyed by what he calls encouraging DVD and video-on-demand sales, and the partnership of four other Rand-inspired financiers to help bear the production and marketing costs, Aglialoro and his production partner from Atlas Shrugged Part I, Harmon Kaslow, decided they were ready to finish what they started. At Reason Weekend, the annual event held by the Reason Foundation back in February, they announced Atlas Shrugged Part II was a go.
The movie is now shooting (digitally, with Arri Alexa cameras) around the Los Angeles area. On Wednesday I visited a giant empty warehouse in downtown Los Angeles (near, naturally, a train track) to witness day 10 of a planned 31 day shoot (slightly longer than Part I's 27 days, but with a far more leisurely couple of months of pre-production). This warehouse will be Rearden Steel's foundry and Hank Rearden's office. In the novel, Rearden invents an amazing amalgam known as Rearden metal only to have his industrial progress hamstrung and his property stolen by an ever-more-repressive state attempting to centrally control an economy already choking under too much government management.
From the producers' video monitors—the actual shooting set of Hank's office was too tight and cramped for reporters to lurk—I watched the shooting of two scenes in Rearden's office. The setting is all huge looming empty spaces, dusty light, rusting metal, and overhead gantries that the bright and perspicacious production intern, Justin Lesniewski, tells me were previously, in a Randian touch, used to suspend and work on rail cars. Lesniewski is an aspiring novelist and Rand fan who won his job through an essay contest, one of many ways the production hopes to keep the Rand fan community invested in the project.
The warehouse already feels convincingly "steel foundry" and they built out Rearden's office so its windows actually are physically looking out over that part of the set. In a move that might prove controversial to fans of Part I, this new movie has been entirely recast—not a single actor reprises their role. Director Paul Johansson, meanwhile, has been replaced by John Putch (a TV veteran with many episodes of Scrubs and Cougar Town behind him).
"The message of Atlas is greater than any particular actor, so it's one of those pieces of literature that doesn't require in our view the interpretation by a singular actor," Kaslow says. "But just from a practical standpoint when we set out to make Part I we had a ticking clock where if we didn't start production by a certain date John's interest in the rights could lapse. We didn't have the luxury at that moment to negotiate future options with the various cast members."
Their eagerness to keep the project moving made arranging schedules with the dozens of speaking roles in Part I hugely impractical, so they chose instead to concentrate on making sure the look of the movie created the world they needed it to create. As Kaslow put it, "we just gave ourselves a clean slate put together what we think is a real terrific cast."
The new Rearden, Jason Beghe (most recently of Californication), plays Hank with far more gruff menace than his predecessor, the suave Grant Bowler. Beghe goes with an intensity that draws you in to him rather than projects flashily, and delivers his lines with a deep growl that almost made him feel like a Hollywood take on a Randian crime boss, someone driven to organized crime in a world where just trying to be productive on your own terms had become illegal. And despite the fact that both Rearden and his metal were invented by Rand in the 1950s, while audiences today participate in an economy where more and more people are living not through mass production but by individualized creativity (what some social scientists are calling the "personalized economy") Rearden and his troubles still feel more of the moment than they do some sort of outmoded industrial age castoff.
During my time on set I watched the shooting of another scene that is, in a way, the lynchpin of the entire novel: the subtle attempt by Francisco D'Anconia (played by Esai Morales, most recently seen as Caprica's Joseph Adama) to convince Rearden to abandon this world of statist control, by reminding him that Rearden never wanted to devote his life's energies and creativity to "looters who think it's your duty to produce, and theirs to consume. Moochers who think they owe you nothing." (Yes, Rand fans, "looters" and "moochers," both delivered seriously in mainstream movie dialogue.) Morales delivers the iconic line about what he would tell Atlas if he saw him bleeding and suffering, trying to bear single-handedly the burden of the world: "To shrug."
Morales does the scene, delivers the line, more than five times while I watch, running a range from intense near-menace to ironic lightness; the camera angle I'm watching doesn't show Rearden's reaction, which will be key to how the emotion of the scene plays. Between shots, I get to walk and sit in Rearden's office set, complete with Randian modernist metal sculptures: shining, swirling ribbons and abstract geometries made solid. In fact, there's lots of great metal work everywhere. The huge windows overlooking the foundry also provide an unexpected dramatic touch as the "shrug" scene ends, propelling Francisco and Hank into an action scene on the factory floor (which will be filmed the next day) and a tightening of their mutual respect.
The other office scene acted Wednesday involved the respectable-seeming but sinister Dr. Floyd Ferris of the State Science Institute coming to Rearden's office to blackmail him into signing over Rearden metal to the "Unification Board." Once again, the actors tried out a wide variety of styles to play the scene; I preferred the ones that maintained a steadier aura of menace. (Ferris can go with either businesslike jovial threat or calm and steely—I preferred calm and steely.) My vantage point again prevented me from seeing Rearden's reaction.
Part IIs new Dagny Taggart—the railroad magnate heroine struggling to keep the motors of the world running while mysterious forces try to shut them down—is Samantha Mathis (perhaps most famously of Pump Up the Volume opposite Christian Slater). She wasn't on set Wednesday, but co-screenwriter Duncan Scott, fresh to this project but with a long history with Ayn Rand and the movies, showed me some rough footage he shot of her filming a couple of scenes on earlier days. One of them quietly helps frame the deteriorating world of Atlas—with Mathis walking past grim lines of citizens selling their possessions on the streets in a world of 20 percent unemployment and $40 per gallon gas, shot outside the Los Angeles convention center. Another was of her fateful solo plane ride. Kaslow and Scott are both excited about their new Dagny. Scott says Mathis is always believable as a woman serious and powerful enough to run a railroad, and Kaslow says she's fully embraced the character and went out of her way to read the novel to understand the character more fully.
Duncan Scott actually worked on a film with Ayn Rand herself: the editing of a bootleg filmed version of her first novel, We the Living, into something Rand would want released in America. Scott says he never experienced any of Rand's legendary wrath during their brief period working side by side in the early 1970s, and he questions the conventional wisdom that Rand's imperious desire for control would have made it impossible to truly finish a filmed Atlas if she were still around to interfere today. "She responded tremendously well to people who were reasonable and rational," Scott says, "so it would depend on the people she was working with." Though Rand felt burned to some degree by all her experiences with film—even the 1949 Fountainhead, which she wrote and made sure was shot as she wrote, was ultimately edited against her will and left her feeling dissatisfied with the final result. Rand's openness to a filmed Atlas, which she tried to write various versions of herself, from feature film to mini-series, would, Scott thinks, "depend on the people who wanted to make the film and her trust in how they would handle the property."
Scott was brought to this project partially for his decades of experience in the world of Objectivist ideas and Randian film; while he has a long career working as assistant director on non-political films, including Woody Allen's Zelig and Sidney Lumet's Deathtrap, he also has kept his hand in the world of libertarian and Objectivist documentary film, and is working on a huge Rand documentary now as well.

Dagny should have been played by Sasha Grey to insure commercial success.
Plus, Sasha has 99.9% name recognition with libertarians.
Ok, I lol'd.
Stacie Halas. She's got science creds.
New cast members?
What a clusterfuck.
Exactly, thus shrike's suggestion.
I think I'll hold out for the deluxe ultra mega three movie boxed set.
I still have not seen the first one....
Seriously I watched Battleship already.
These movies offer nothing of interest to me.
Speaking of battleship here is my review:
You may think it is movie based on a hasbro board game.
You may think it is an aprox 1 hour and 30 min gag about a chicken burrito with the punch line delivered by this guy:
But it is actually an American live action remake of Star Blazers.
Needless to say it is an unmitigated disaster.
You are the worst type of person and people like you are the reason this country is so fucked up. Everything is about you and what affects YOU. "These movies offer nothing of interest to me." WTF? If these movies hold no interest to you then why are you commenting? You offer no critique of the film or it's ideas. You just like to shit in everyone's cereal. Douse yourself in gasoline and have a cigarette douchebag.
"Everything is about you and what affects YOU"
Yeah, it's really weird to hear an attitude like that here :P
Considering part 1 of the novel is about the determined human spirit overcoming major obstacles in an impossibly compressed schedule to build an unprecedented bullett train, I think Ayn would have been dissapointed in the final product of the movie paying tribute to that part of her story.
That said, I will probably see the second one. Even though the entire original cast has been wasted, if it means the dreadful Matthew Marsden isn't playing James Taggert, I will give it a shot. I would have passed part 1 as decent if not for his performance.
*bullet (not bullett), stand down trolls.
Conservative cannot make movies. They suck at it, in fact.
The best movie about Capitalism ever is 'There Will Be Blood'.
Plainview = Galt.
Says the man who's never seen Red Dawn.
"...shot outside the Los Angeles convention center"
Apparently the makers of this movie, much like Rand herself, don't care about using the infrastructure of the state as long as their ends are furthered-- morality be damned.
Yes, I understand that public roads may have even been used during the production of the movie.
You mean how Ayn Rand accepted state money for medical help when she got sick from all her chain smoking? Like that, you mean?
Damn, there are only 12 comments on an Ayn Rand article at 7:50 EST on Friday and three of them are mine.
I love Ayn Rand myself. We are both liberals although she is hostile to sensible regulations while I am not.
Hey, that is a small difference today.
There is some sort of comment blackout on blogs all over the blogospshere. WTF is going on? Friday night and no one is commenting on anything, anywhere? Fuck, it is 2012 and all. Did the rapture happen and I am one of the few sinners left on planet earth and the all the others still here are wack-o liberals? Holy Fuck, where did I put those cyanide capsules....
Wait, I need to see the first Atlas Shrugged first. I started watching it a few nights ago on netflix but wifey got me drunk and took advantage of me and I can't remember anything, so I need to try again tonight.
It must be the Rapture because I am still present on Earth.
And yes, there is some sort of weirdness going on. I will confirm while watching Liberty Loving Bill Maher at 10pm EST unless the Rapture pulls me into an unknown to me GOP Vortex.
Even on yahoo on articles that typically would have thousands of posts by now... 7 posts? My wife is still here, so she must be a sinner too. I should call someone I know that was religious, or pretended to be...
I didn't notice it at first, but yeah, it's odd. You'd think the Rand-love spooge would be knee-deep by now ;)
The term is "splooge".
As I've said before I really don't take Rand seriously. But, hey, anyone who can take neurotic self-pity and make an influential cult out of it maybe deserves some consideration.
I've admired Rand's work for 30 years now. Neurotic self-pity is, I think, such a turn-on. Well played.
Oh, come on. First off, self-pity really is a powerful emotion. Most of any political movement these days (and liberjectivism is not exempt from this) is one long woe-is-me whine.
Rand's books - if you understand that she really tried to be a groundbreaking screen writer only fail because she sucked at it - are all one long "why doesn't anyone recognize my awesome genius right away and without any effort on my part?" screed against the world. It's all to typical for some mediocre loser to view themselves as persecuted and unrecognized geniuses and Rand got lucky and tapped into that.
The thing I like best about Rand's books is the way people respond to them.
Weak losers identify with the weak losers in the book and therefore hate the books for making them confront their failings.
Intelligent, strong, productive people indentify with the heroes and therefore love the books as an affirmation of the values they hold.
I read Atlas Shrugged and didn't identify with any of the characters because they're all shallow, one dimensional caricatures.
And she's still more articulate than you.
I've found the exact opposite. It was part of what clued me in to the joke-factor of Ayn Rand when I was really into her in high school -- I just enjoyed her books a lot, and I didn't think too much about the larger philosophy behind them. I liked the drama, I thought she was a good -- if long-winded -- writer.
But then I met all these total effing losers who were her fans. And it was so embarrassing! It was worse than going to some comic-con (though those can be a lot more fun).
I realized that all these shmucks wanted to see themselves as heroes in a world that didn't recognize their greatness. They were motivated by a lot of hatred of other people and a totally overblown sense of themselves. They had no humility, no wisdom, and were mostly humorless and unattractive.
So, that was the end of it for me. That's just my experience.
"...got lucky..."
Oh my. Only someone who viewed themself as "persecuted and unrecognized" would discount another's success in such a bitter manner. You may not like what Rand had to say, but she was very good at saying it, and commercially so. She deserves props at least for that.
And I'm giving her them. But...let's take an - ahem - objective look at her fiction. First, let's tackle the "very good at saying" bit. Rand couldn't leave a thought until she thoroughly ran it into the ground. Every monologue is a rambling, directionless rehash of one or two basic ideas. Galt's speech is a classic example of this. Find an online copy and edit it yourself if you don't believe me. Take out the filler and anything redundant and you may be left with a coherent thought but one that's much, much shorter.
But Roark, Prometheus and Galt tell you what you need to know about Rand's inner workings and her own over-inflated ego. She was too good (in her mind) to work her way up so she really didn't put too much effort into it, felt "the world" gave her the bum steer that made her into a penniless department store clerk instead of a famous screenwriter and rationalized it by saying her half-assed approach to life in the early years was some sort of protest against the system. And she ground her teeth in envy at the success of others while her own "groundbreaking" stuff was ignored - attributing it to ass-kissing or a faceless plot by "the system" which ws just "unprepared" for her greatness and which didn't give her the instant success she felt she was entitled to - rather than facing down what a mediocre hack she was. The rest of objectivism is just shit to rationalize her near-psychotic narcissism.
The people who truly identify with her heroes are those losers who think it's everyone else's fault. Sadly, too many of her villains would be her biggest fans IRL. (Frickin' character limit)
I can do no better than quote the wisdom of Ace Ventura:
"Obsess much?"
yes ;)
I'm honored to have a representative from the Ayn Rand Institute join the discussion.
Ancap - Do the world a favor and get laid. Please.
Ancap here is doing a stellar job of representing the psyche of many Rand supporters -- frustrated, furious, mean spirited loonies. There's often a nice fragrant strain of racism and misogyny to complement the sense that a big bad world is against their greatness.
The Randians at top of the heap (like Greenspan) are a small cadre of criminals who actually resemble her villains quite closely. Insider looters, basically. And the lower-heap folks who love Rand have always been embarrassingly inept at most of what they do. I knew one guy who had a bumper sticker company, and he gave me a Randian sticker once. The ink was the wrong kind of ink, and it smeared off all over my clothes.
This article is a perfect example as well -- a bunch of Randian super-achievers who can't make a remotely decent movie.
Really capable people who also have a developed character and a semblance of wisdom find Ayn Rand to be, in the end, a joke. It has always been thus.
I actually enjoyed her books, but I was a teenager. I grew up and over time understood the many fundamental flaws in her arguments and her premises, and could see the 1-dimensional characters for what they were -- which was nothing that resembled human beings in reality.
I suppose there's the off chance Ancap is a liberal progressive posing as the most disgusting kind of Ayn Rand loony in order to make fun of the whole Randian cult. If so, well played, Ancap!
Though you could lay off the lines like "discharge dripping slut" -- I mean, I just ate breakfast for godsake.
Re Greenspan: If Rand were alive today she would do a "Steven Mallory vs. Ellsworth Toohey" smackdown of the SpanMan.
In General, Rand would despise anyone in either of the 2 major political parties as well as all the various other bureaucrats, so it is pointless to argue about which of these clowns is a Randian hero or villain.
Given that you are actually talking about a product of metallurgy, Brian, I think the word you wanted was "alloy," not "amalgam." The latter refers to an alloy of mercury (usually with silver, as in old school tooth fillings). Although the word is commonly used to mean "mixture" or "combination" when the subject is NOT metals, it has a specific technical meaning when the topic IS metals.
I'm glad, after the lukewarm reception even among conservatives and libertarians that the first movie got, that they're making a Part II.
An overrated piece of shit book was made and then adapted into a piece of shit film. Now we are going to make a piece of shit sequel. I thought Libertarians were all about being rational? But they fall into one of America's great pastimes also: wasting money.
It's not a waste of money to the people who are voluntarily spending it. Doesn't libertarianism say that if they want to spend THEIR money on some project, they're free to do so, even if some guy666 disapproves?

Rivers of a Lost Coast
Posted by Bruce Robinson in water , tourism , Russian River , resources , recreation , policy , ocean , media , history , fish , environment , coast
The rise and surprisingly rapid fall of fly fishing on the Russian and other northern California rivers is told in a new documentary film, Rivers of a Lost Coast.
As a boy, Justin Coupe, co-director of Rivers of a Lost Coast, was taught fly fishing by his father, a lifelong angler. So after finishing college, with an eye toward making a film about that subculture, he returned to the Russian and other northern California rivers to reacquaint himself with his subject. Doing so, he says, reaffirmed his determination to capture this slice of regional history while the first-person participants were still on hand to talk about it.
One of the unexpected stories within Rivers of A Lost Coast involves the long and bitter rivalry between two of the region's most accomplished fishermen, Bill Schaadt left) and Tom Linden.
See the trailer for Rivers of a Lost Coast:

By Tom Precious
ALBANY – Despite widespread belief by Democrats and Republicans that he might inject himself into the internal partisan wrangling in the State Senate, Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo said today he has "no intention'' in getting involved in the power struggle.
Democrats, in unofficial results, appear to have won enough seats to regain control of the State Senate. There are two, and possibly three, seats still int play, though, and results may not be known for weeks as paper ballots are recounted.
The situation is made murky because there are four Democrats who two years ago broke away from the main Democratic conference to form their own caucus, and both Democrats and Republicans are already angling to try to woo them to join with them. Republicans say they are open to forming a coalition-type Senate with the help of the four Democrats, who are keeping their plans secret for now.
"It's more complicated than it used to be,'' Cuomo said today about the Senate. Instead of just Democratic and Republican conferences, "Now it's more of a coalition because (there are) three groups instead of just two'' because of the existence of the four-member Independent Democratic Conference.
Cuomo said he believes the Senate Democrats are aware they lost control of the Senate two years ago "because of the dysfunction'' that characterized their two-year reign that began after the 2008 elections. "I think they learned that lesson the hard way,'' Cuomo said of the Senate Democrats.
Senate Democrats, who have had cool relations over the last two years because of Cuomo's coziness with the Senate GOP, privately say they think Cuomo eventually will get involved behind the scenes to convince the four renegade Democrats to join with the main Democratic conference to put his party in control of the Senate.
But one Senate Democrat this morning said no one should assume anything about the governor.
"I never presume what the governor decides is or isn't his role,'' said Sen. Liz Krueger, a Manhattan Democrat. But she said Democratic control of the Senate "will help him ensure'' some of his policy objectives are realized in the coming session.

We have went out only once, but we have known each other socially for sometime and we have hung out since our date socially. There is an attraction to each other, physically and mentally(at least on my part). Since our first date, which went over well and we both agreed that we would like to see each other again and soon. Since then I have asked her out a couple more times and call it bad timing, but she already had plans, no biggie. But her response, is always, we will get together real soon. She is a couple years older than me, so i guess i am expecting some level of respect, that if you reach out to someone, you should at least acknowledge it with a response. And NO the response doesnt need to be immediate.
So after all that, is there any logical reason, as to why the last 3 or 4 women i have dated have acted in a similar fashion? Constantly on their phones, but yet, it takes them forever to get back to me, if ever at all.
Any insight would be appreciated!
Unfortunately, there are a lot of women today that cannot for the life of them, take their fingers off that connection? I have seen for myself, just how bad they are! They cannot even hold a conversation, their eyes glued to the screen, and not you! It doesn't matter what they are doing, we are now less important than their I-phones are?! Facebook is one of the biggest culprits, followed closely by U-tube, I think? And then of course, they have to talk to their B.F.F. forever, and ignore the world around them!
I'm sorry my friend, this appears to be our future? What can we do? I hope to find a woman that is more interested in me, than that piece of mechanical crap in her hand?!!!
I wish you luck!!!
That's exactly my point, they are constantly connected to their phones. So if I am as important to them as they say, you'd think they would return my message. So I guess the real question I am asking is, is she telling me the truth about how she feels? or is she attempting to string me along?
She may not be talking to others all the time when she's glued to her smartphone. There are lots of online games that are total brain-suckers, like Farmville and Castleville and literally hundreds more. They depend on almost constant interaction and they can get really addicting. I should know, I broke myself of the habit. And I agree with Dennis, this is epidemic and I'm not sure what to do about it either.
The only thing I can say is, people really need to get their heads out of their butts regarding electronics. I sometimes pay more attention to my computer than my spouse and that is WRONG. I suppose you could just ask her straight out, "why do you take so long to respond to me when I have a question?" and see what kind of excuse she has. Or simply "it hurts when you ignore my questions."
Good luck to you.
'Your focus determines your reality.' --QGJ
I appreciate your input, the times I have been with her, she is texting and i havent seen her play any of those online games, not to say that she doesnt. I have been talking to my therapist about all of this and that was her suggestion as well, just ask her. I just feel a bit awkward asking because we have only been out once and just basically interact socially. So I dont want to come across as needy or desperate, I dont feel that asking her would imply either of those scenarios, but I dont know how she would perseve that sort of question. The biggest thing I need to do is set that boundary with her and let her know that I do get upset. That being said, I dont do a good job of setting boundaries. I just try to hard to get someone like me, that I'll push my own needs away and focus solely on theirs.
I dont know if this is a fear of rejection, i have asked her out multiple times and we havent been able to connect, she has prior plans with friends, etc. Normally in the past i probably would have thrown in the towel, but for some reason i keep persisting. So when she tells me she has plans, i do understand. But if she was as into me as she has expressed, you'd think that she would perhaps break those plans atleast once to go have dinner and hang out. But then again, that's me, i would do that at the drop of a hat. My biggest concern is staying "relevant" and I feel that she could easily forget about me and the fun that we have had together. She is a very beautiful girl, so my self confidence issues are front and center. She is the type of girl who in theory, could have anyone she wanted, but yet, she chose to hang out with me.
As for understand a friend in my shoes, i absolutely would. However I would probably offer the same advice that I am giving myself. As I have mentioned the majority of the times that we have hung out, we have been out socially at a bar. Ideally I want to go out with her in an environment that would be isolated so I could actually tell her how I felt and get a pulse of where she wants this to go. If she wants to just be friends, i am completely fine with that. On the other hand, if she could see a relationship in the future, id be happy with that too. I just need to know so i can do what i need to do for whatever the outcome. Obviously if she chose the friend option, i would be a bit upset and hurt, but id be able to live with that knowing that we could still be friends.
My biggest challenge is that I am a good guy, I am not a player and I try to treat women with the utmost respect. All that keeps running thru my head is "nice guys finish last". But I cant really play that jerk role, that so many women seem to be attracted to. I understand their is a huge difference in being a nice guy and being assertive, compared to being a nice guy and a push over. The latter is what i have been in the past and sadly some of those tendencies resurface and like i said before i appear needy or desperate.
Thanks for your time, I really appreciate your input.
If you are being assertive and not getting the results that you want, I suppose you are in the position of having to decide as you go along whether you have tried enough and need to move on. As for your reference to 'nice guys', often nonassertive nice guys finish last (or end up in a relationship that is not fully respectful of them) - but assertive (not aggressive) nice guys are in a position to develop a happy relationship in which both partners are respectful and loving toward each other.
Good luck!
After some thought I do agree that it is a fear of rejection, given that is something I have struggled with for a long long time. And it is this fear of rejection that has lead to my belief that I am not good enough, for anyone, myself included. And looking back at all my past relationships, i have always put their needs ahead of mine, because i was afraid to lose them.
As for the nonassertiveness I would have to say the reason for that again would be the fear of rejection or having a fight. And the fight leading to the end of a relationship, so i would just cave to make them happy and me miserible. Again this isnt just a one time thing, it has happened in every relationship I have been involved in. Perhaps the term Vicious Cycle should make an appearance.
Thanks for your input!
I will try my best to put this information to good use. As you know the biggest step, is getting out of my own way and allowing myself to take risks emotionally. I just need to get used to stepping outside of my comfort zone.

Dennis Rodman is at the top of a list no one wants to be on. He's been named GQ's No. 1 least influential celebrity of 2013.
The 52-year-old former basketball player who has visited Kim Jong Un in North Korea was selected as the top pick in the magazine's third annual list of the least influential celebrities.
The list also includes twerking pop star Miley Cyrus, President Barack Obama, and celebrity chef Paula Deen.
Rodman said this week he's preparing to return to North Korea late next month for an exhibition basketball tour.
The magazine said Obama came in at No. 17 on the list because "nothing gets done."
Other celebrities deemed non-influential include Justin Bieber, Lady Gaga, Ryan Reynolds and Will Smith.

CHICAGO (AP) -- Medical reports say transgender teens and even younger kids are getting sex-changing treatment at some U.S. clinics.
The numbers are small but on the rise.
These are children who are certain they were born the wrong sex. With their parents' approval, they're getting drugs to stop puberty, followed by sex-changing hormones they must take for life.
One Boston hospital treats about 19 such kids a year and has seen a four-fold increase in patients since 1998. Treatment often starts around age 11.
Some ethicists say the treatment raises concerns. But doctors who provide it say these kids often try suicide or self-mutilation until they get sex-changing treatment.
Reports about the issue were published online Monday in the medical journal Pediatrics.

The Dolphins announced Wednesday that they have signed RB-RS Clifton Smith. Terms of the deal were not disclosed. In order to make room for Smith on the 53-man roster, the team waived OL Joe Reitz, whom it had picked up on a waiver claim Sept. 5.
Smith, a third-year veteran, spent two years with the Buccaneers after entering the league in 2008 as an undrafted free agent.
The 5-9, 190-pound Smith became the first Buccaneers kick returner ever selected to the Pro Bowl in '08 after leading the team with 36 kickoff returns for 992 yards (27.6-yard average). He also became the first player in franchise history with a kickoff return for a touchdown and a punt return for a TD in the same season.
He led the league in kickoff-return average in '09 with a 29.1-yard average.
The Dolphins were lacking a big-play threat at kick returner after trading away Ted Ginn Jr. this past offseason and not fully trusting rookie Nolan Carroll or backup RB Patrick Cobbs.
