Via Jacob Goldstein, according to its IPO filing Groupon seems to have achieved its impressive growth through a campaign of aggressive deficit spending:
Maybe this will work out, or maybe it will be a disaster. But it's worth noting that absolutely nobody thinks it's categorically absurd to think that what a firm needs to do to maximize long-term profits is boost spending over revenues. The idea here is that there are substantial network effects in the online coupon business, such that one dominant player will earn lots of money and the minnows won't. Under the circumstances you want to spend what it takes to become that dominant player.

Hi fellow poor eyesight suffers. My name is Jasmine and with this review, I want to change the way in which you 'see' the world.
Okay, perhaps I went a bit overboard in the title. It wasn't as if I was blind, but my eyesight was quite poor. I had glasses, but they were so troublesome to handle. Some days, I forgot to bring them to work and recognizing someone from across my office table was a problem for me. I also had trouble looking for a building or a room number for a meeting.
Then I came across Easy Clear Vision and it has helped me immensely. I never liked the idea of having my eyes having laser surgery as some people have suggested and it is so expensive to begin with!
I want to show you in this Easy Clear Vision review just how much the program has helped me with my 20/20 vision without any expensive procedures or alternative techniques.
I am very particular about things being near my eyes – even putting in eye drops is a challenge for me – so Easy Clear Vision was a great way in which I could improve my eyesight in a safe and effective way.
What is Easy Clear Vision?
Before I get into the details of the program I have to say this first: many of the bigger companies in the optical industry are trying to have this program shut down. Not because there is anything wrong with the content, but because it is threatening to eat into their profits because of how effective it is. The eye care market in the US is worth around $35 billion per year so you can see why they are worried!
Now onto the program itself.
Easy Clear Vision comes as an eBook with various added extras. It details how your lifestyle can impact your vision and what exercises can be done to improve it. There are also handy videos which demonstrate each exercise and for me, this was a big bonus because I often read eBooks like this that don't show you how to practically implement the program itself.
On top of all of this, you also get an eye chart (so you can measure your progress), a fully outlined schedule that only takes 15 minutes per day to implement and also audio files of chill-out and relaxing music that have been proven to make the exercises more effective.
Considering that all of this is available for a one off fee – I hate monthly subscriptions – then it was too good of an opportunity to pass up.
Easy Clear Vision Plus Points
• An easy to follow and understand program for better eyesight
• Exercises only take about 15 minutes per day
• No extra commitments or additional purchases to be made
• Has IMPROVED my eyesight
• Backed up my scientific research
• Great added bonuses at no extra cost
• Instant access with PayPal payments
Easy Clear Vision Negatives
• Could be suppressed soon due to industry pressure
• No physical product – everything is based digitally
• Requires daily routines so commitment is required for results
My Easy Clear Vision Lowdown
The best thing about this program – apart from improving my eyesight obviously – was how much self-confidence it has given me. Some people are more suited to wear glasses and some people are not. I always felt really self-conscious about wearing my glasses but I had no option then.
However when I started to see results with this program, people kept telling me "Wow Jasmine, you look really great with your specs on!" and I felt fantastic as a result of this.
Easy Clear Vision is an amazing and affordable way to improve your eyesight and, in fact, I would pay 10x the amount and it would still cost less than a laser surgery without any of the risk.
If you do suffer from poor vision then I highly recommend that you use Easy Clear Vision as a way in which to get your 20/20 eyesight back and get rid of those glasses.
I hope you have enjoyed my Easy Clear Vision review, and if you have any questions about my own personal experience of the program then just get in touch.

I would like to write a book but I do not know where to begin. Ultimately it seems like it is people-plagiarism to simply write about what I am seeing in the world. At this point my book would have to be called: 24 Hours at Starbucks, a Glance at Everyone Else's Life.
Right now there are 2 teachers and four of their first grade students sitting next to me. One teacher, with a sturdy, pointed nose and shortly chopped blond hair has the best posture I have ever seen. She no doubt still uses the ruler on the hands of those who slouch. She is sandwiched between two absolutely opposite little seven-year-old girls. One is very quiet; the other is very loud. One is delicately disassembling her huge cupcake into bird like bites; the other is taking monstrous chunks out with no regard to the cupcake or to the others around her. One listens and observes; the other can't talk fast enough or get all her stories in. One is ignoring the two boys at the table; the other is grabbing the boy's shorts closest to her while he screams. She explains that she had to do it; his underwear was sticking out.
The teacher? With fork lifted astutely in the air, elbows off the table, and a completely perfect spinal column that held her chin in the air at a very respectable angle, reminds the girls to act like "ladies." I.e. take smaller bites, sit up taller, don't grab the boy's shorts, and definitely don't talk about underwear at the table. And if possible, maybe, just don't talk for a while.
The quiet girl finally talks with a quiet gasp…her child's organic chocolate milk is 110 calories.
I'm not sure if God is playing a trick on my baby crazy mind or I am torturing my own thoughts, but I am both amused and terrified by the girl who seems to be playing the role of me twenty years ago. The anti-calorie counting, loud mouthed, cupcake lover.
Sometimes when I most wonder about myself, and how I turned out this way, I am promptly reminded that indeed I was born with much of it. Mr. Rogers would call it my unique, wonderful me. Dad would call it my mom's DNA. My sisters would call it the gift of being high strung and emotional. And I would just call it normal. Underwear at the table is not something new and neither is having too many words pent up inside me. Will my own daughter be this way? Normal?
I watched her and wondered about her future.
I also wondered if the seven year old who actually knew what calories were would stop eating by the age of 9 or by the age of 13? I am 27 and the newfound terror of calories is paralyzing for me, a mostly functioning healthy young adult. The introduction of calories twenty years ago would have caused me to never eat again, or at least to keep a pretty nifty diary of every thing I put in my body, which, yep would have increased the intensity of my OCD disorder. And if we are being honest it may have increased my tendency to dissect my own poop. I mean, come on, if we are keeping careful tabs of calories, at that age, I would have wanted a discount on the calories that didn't seem to stick around in my body.
Back to the mini me. Would she feel like she talked too much? Like me? Would she ever feel like she was too much and she needed to be less? Would she ever realize that cupcakes were from the DEVIL? Or would she keep eating them every time she saw a good one? Would her elaborate, sometimes aggrandized stories ever go unheard? Would she ever listen? Would she ever see someone's butt hanging out of their pants and just let it slide? What would she love? Who would love her? Would she still be spunky and spastic and full of energy, or would the less passionate people around her squash it out? Would she ever sit on the porch of a coffee store someday and watch another little girl, thinking, "I was just like her…I ought to write a book." And really, what I need to know is, will she write the book?
She is only concerned with her cupcake right now, and stealing the frosting from all the other cupcakes at the table. That and telling everyone about her blue dinosaur, her idea that Friday's should be written "Fabulous Friday's" on the school calendar, and that she planned on going to Disney World this weekend, by herself if no one would go with her. She would just take her dinosaur.
The proper bird like teacher is trying so hard to tame the beast into a lady. But I have big plans for her. I think she will write a book.

The Station Arts programming would never be possible without the help of so many volunteers. If you are new in town or just wanting to get involved with the Station to better serve the community, talk to us about volunteering.
Our Summer Theatre always needs ushers, bar tenders and box office personnel. Throughout the year, we rely on volunteers for our concert series or special events in areas of lighting, sound, ushering and front desk assistance. There are children's art programs and workshops that can always use helping hands! Being at the Station is always a lot of fun and there are so many ways to help make our events fantastic!

- HIV stands for Human Immunodeficiency Virus and is different to AIDS, which is the advanced stage of HIV infection.
- The HIV virus can be spread through infected blood, breast milk, semen, and anal or vaginal fluids contaminating the blood stream.
- The HIV virus attacks the immune system by using the body's defence cells to replicate, while simultaneously destroying the same cells that protect the body from illness.
- If HIV is not treated with antiretroviral treatment - which works by preventing the virus from replicating - then the body is exposed to opportunistic infections which can cause serious illnesses.
Explore this page to find out more about how HIV is transmitted, how HIV replicates inside the body, how HIV causes illness and treatment for HIV.
HIV stands for: Human Immunodeficiency Virus.
AIDS stands for: Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome.
The ill health that HIV can cause is related to immune deficiency. The virus attacks and weakens the immune system, which is the body's natural defence system against infections and diseases.
While many millions of people are living with HIV, most of them will never progress to the most advanced stage of infection, known as AIDS, thanks to antiretroviral treatment.
How HIV is transmitted
HIV is found in the blood and sexual fluids of a person living with HIV and in the breast milk of a woman living with HIV. Transmission may occur if a sufficient quantity of these body fluids get into someone else's bloodstream.
The most common way in which HIV is transmitted is during sexual intercourse without a condom or a female condom.
The walls of the vagina and the rectum are mucous membranes, as are the inner lining of the foreskin and the urethra of the penis. Mucous membranes are delicate tissues which provide a less effective barrier to infection than the skin on the outside of the body.
Any tears or bleeding in these tissues (which may be invisible) make it easier for HIV to get into the bloodstream. The presence of HIV in semen or vaginal fluids means the virus may pass through these mucous membranes during unprotected sex.
Sexually transmitted infections (STIs) such as herpes or gonorrhoea can cause ulcerative sores on mucous membranes, also making infection more likely.1
HIV is found in the semen, blood, vaginal and anal fluids and breast milk of an infected person. It cannot be transmitted through sweat, saliva or urine.
Other ways in which HIV is transmitted include:
- from a woman living with HIV to her baby, during pregnancy, childbirth or breastfeeding
- through sharing equipment used to inject drugs, such as needles and syringes
- from blood transfusions and organ transplants, when they have not been carefully screened for HIV
- healthcare workers accidentally injuring themselves with previously used syringes and other medical instruments.
How HIV replicates inside the body
Once a person is infected with HIV, the virus begins to attack and destroy the CD4 cells of the immune system. CD4 cells (also known as T-helper cells) are a type of white blood cell that play a major, co-ordinating role in the immune system.
The reason HIV can cause such serious illness is that the cells the virus uses to replicate itself are the same cells that the body normally uses to fight infections.
Scientists' understanding of how HIV uses CD4 cells to replicate (make copies of itself) and spread throughout the body have helped them design antiretroviral drugs. Different medicines block HIV from replicating.
Case study: Two examples of medicine interfering with different stages of HIV's life cycle
Inside the CD4 cell, HIV uses reverse transcriptase (an enzyme) to convert its RNA into DNA. Drugs known as nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NRTIs) block this process.
HIV uses an enzyme called protease to break up the long chains of protein that form the virus. Another class of drugs, called protease inhibitors (PIs), prevent this happening.
Other classes of antiretroviral drugs - such as entry inhibitors and integrase inhibitors - interfere with different stages of the life cycle.2
HIV-infected cells may be found throughout the body, including in the blood, brain and intestines. Even when HIV treatment has suppressed the level of HIV in blood plasma over a long period of time, HIV can still be found in 'viral reservoirs' in blood and lymphoid tissues. If HIV treatment is stopped, HIV will replicate again.3
How HIV causes illness
Strictly speaking, HIV does not have its own symptoms. The virus prevents the body's immune system from working properly, which increases the probability of the individual experiencing a range of other infections and health problems. These are known as 'opportunistic infections'.
If HIV is not treated, the range and number of possible infections and health problems may rise. Experiencing a collection of these infections is the most advanced stage of HIV, which is when a person is also said to have AIDS.
Case study: Opportunistic infections
MK fell ill and spent two weeks in hospital after having unprotected sex on a first date. He took two months off of work, but colleagues noticed he was losing weight when he returned. He began to frequently suffer from long-term coughs and colds, night sweats, swollen lymph nodes and fevers.
Although these are not specifically symptoms of HIV, MK's doctor advised him to have counselling and take an HIV test - the only way to know. Following his positive test results, he also suffered mitral valve prolapse and pneumonia. But his condition improved once he began receiving treatment. Read more of MK's story.
However, it's important to stress that people with HIV do not necessarily progress to AIDS. Effective antiretroviral treatment slows the replication of the virus, restores immune function and prevents the development of opportunistic infections. People who begin antiretroviral treatment late frequently respond well to treatment.
The timing and occurrence of opportunistic infections, the response of the immune system, and the response to treatment vary from person to person.
Treatment for HIV
A combination of three or four antiretroviral drugs is taken to treat HIV. As each antiretroviral drug class targets a different step in the life cycle of HIV, combining drugs from at least two different drug classes provides a more effective way to prevent replication of the virus than a single drug.
The aim of antiretroviral treatment is to have an 'undetectable' viral load – this means there is only a tiny amount of HIV in the body. This prevents damage to the immune system and consequent illness. The low levels of HIV also significantly reduce the chances of onward HIV transmission.4
Unfortunately the drugs are not a cure – they cannot totally eradicate HIV from the body.

A Week of Waiting Rooms
This past Sunday, September 6, 2009, my wonderful mother-in-law, Dawn Kenny, passed away. Last November this upbeat, energetic woman was diagnosed with an exceedingly rare form of cancer, cholangiocarcinoma (bile duct cancer) at the age of 48. There has been no shortage of exclamations from friends and family: "It's so unfair!" "How can it be?!" But rule #1 on the playground is life's not fair.
KENNY-PAGNUTTI, Dawn Adele (nee Atkins) (July 10, 1960 – September 6, 2009) Dawn Adele Kenny (nee Atkins) did not live with moderation. She loved fully, laughed loudly, traveled extensively, and was happiest when surrounded by friends, family, good food and wine. Dawn was also an accomplished shopper – whether at snappy boutiques or garage sales – and collected everything from nutcrackers to tea pots to shoes. So much of what she bought or made (she painted, knit, crocheted and refinished furniture) went to loved ones, but she gave most generously of her time and enthusiasm, which she shared with many as a volunteer at local schools, Vintage Wings of Canada, and other places.
The Metcalfe Genes and Training
For those of you who don't know, my mother is a super-hero: she is an incredibly good researcher and advocate who can clearly and concisely get her point across on paper and in a meeting. Since I was a child, she has used her gift to right wrongs and keep people (like me) safe from corporate sloppiness, university bureaucracies, and plain old meanies.
I have been her apprentice all these years and – like a good grasshopper – have gone out in search of additional training. There was the summer I worked at McGill in the Donor Research programme, basically receiving training in sniffing out info on alumni. Then there was my work as a facilitator at the Centre for Teaching and Academic Growth at the University of British Columbia that taught me how to move difficult discussions along, listen to people without rolling my eyes, and ask probing questions to get at the root of the matter. (the second skill is probably the most useful one, btw!)
Well, the Metcalfe genes and training kicked into overdrive yesterday! Someone wrote a vicious (and hugely overblown) email about the Rock Springs Humane Society and had been circulating it for over a week before a caring supporter sent it to the director to give her a head's up. Basically this alarmist email was trying to raise a mob to descend on our board meeting yesterday. We found out about the email the day before and by yesterday morning the director (my good friend) forwarded it to me. It was on.
Within a few minutes, I had compiled a table of all the people who had forwarded and received the email (at least in the 'email tree' that had ended up with us). You see, the people had not thought to use the useful BCC function on their email accounts, and so all their names were in plain sight. Soon I had added their addresses and phone numbers, some of their ages, and some additional details – like place of work – to my table. It's amazing what you can find out on the internet if you know where to look…
Then I set about responding to the email piece by piece. It turned into a three-page rebuttal. If all else fails, kill 'em with a logical, reasoned response. It's a good thing I did, too, since the Rock Springs mayor, Tim Kaumo, had gotten wind of these accusations and came to the meeting yesterday. It was with more than a modicum of satisfaction that I gathered my document up and handed it to him.
I then briefly summarized the contents of my rebuttal to the board members and the dozen or so concerned citizens who had been roused by this email (or who had written it in the first place – that is still unclear!). While they did not show up bearing pitch forks, if we had been blindsided by this whole affair, things could have gotten very ugly.
In the end, though, while there were some heated discussions, I think we managed to squelch what could have been a huge blow-up. I, for one, walked away from the meeting feeling like some valid concerns had been raised, people were willing to be part of the solution (we even had a few people sign up to be volunteers!), and that most people present had conducted themselves in a reasonable manner. In addition, the mayor seems like a very approachable and animal-friendly sort of man, and is willing to work with us in the future for possible funding, etc.
It's amazing what having a super-hero mom can teach you!
The votes are in: The Masked Avengers have won!
We are two days away from the American election and it's getting pretty exciting.
The local middle schools here in Green River, WY have already held their mock elections, participating in the National Student/Parent Mock Election Day. The elections were pretty close, but the Republican McCain/Palin team won at both schools (161-103 at one and 145-120 at the other). I love what the local newspaper, the Green River Star, reported these sassy sixth-graders as saying about the election rumour-mills. One student, Alexander, said he had heard a rumour "that Obama is a terrorist and that he is going to make all white people his slaves if he is elected. He said people should focus on the facts and not rumours." Another student, Erik, said he heard that "Palin has the IQ of a 2-year-old."
It would be really interesting to know where these young voters have gotten their info: Fox News (the conservative, Rebublican mouthpiece); MSNBC (Democrat all the way); CNN (the "no bull, no bias" network); or perhaps parents, neighbours or their friendly neighbourhoud white supremacist group? Maybe they're like me and watch Jon Stewart's The Daily Show and The Colbert Report for their political news.
In any event, the idea behind the Mock Election Day is, of course, to start training pre-teens and teens to be civic-minded. Studies have shown that these sorts of initiatives mean youngsters are more likely to get out and vote for real when they reach the age of majority (but can't yet drink alcohol, which I still think is very silly). Voter apathy is a real issue and Leonardo Di Caprio and friends have launched a video "Don't Vote" to get through to US Citizens: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VhDRVKDcXQo
Then there is the more light-hearted side of things with Quebec comedy duo, The Masked Avengers, who just 'punked' Sarah Palin by pretending to be the French President, Nicolas Sarkozy (https://ca.news.yahoo.com/s/capress/081101/national/prankster_palin or to hear the conversation, go to https://ca.video.yahoo.com/watch/3842140/10491245). Palin was completely oblivious, but was actually quite diplomatic in the face of comments about hunting with Dick Cheney and the recent porn spoof of her in Hustler. But, as the pranksters said, she didn't come across as all that intelligent.
She should feel like quite the celebrity, though, The Masked Avengers have similarly pranked Bill Gates, Britney Spears, and Sarkozy himself. Now Palin "the down-home, simple American" has more celebrity cachet to go along with her new $150,000 wardrobe.
Meanwhile back home in Canada…
There are definitely some interesting political happenings here in the US – what with the presidential race and all that… But in my book nothing beats good ol' Canadian politico-cultural satire.
My dad – ever trawling the Web – forwarded this video to me. If you have ever lived in Quebec or another part of French-speaking Canada, or just like to make fun of Harper's disconnect with much of Canada's population, take a peek and be prepared to howl with laughter!

Human Slingshot
I am a little worried about what we'll find in Rock Springs, but my more immediate fear is that the immigration officer at the border will reject us. If that happens, though, I have a plan: we're going to slingshot across the border!
Doug and I were watching a show called Mythbusters on Discovery Channel last week. Each show, these wonderfully quirky scientists and engineers take an urban legend and try and prove or disprove it. The episode we happened across really fit our current situation: apparently one story in circulation is that people are being flung from Canada into the US using slingshots.
We thought this was absolutely hilarious. First of all, while the US offers many opportunities, who would give up universal health care in Canada to be shot across the border (where, I might add, you would need serious medical attention after being hurled 200 or so yards. And who wants to live in a country that still uses the imperial system with crazy measurements like yards?)?!
Anyway, the show's experts dutifully constructed a slingshot of monstrous proportions and succeeded in launching a man-sized dummy a reasonable distance. It bears noting, however, that the dummy landed nowhere near the carefully placed mattress (hence the needed medical care). Also, I am sure with all the money being pumped into homeland security that its enforcers would surely notice if a group of people were constructing a slingshot so big it could be seen from space.
That there are enough people who believe in this slingshot idea that it made it on to Mythbusters is really frightening. Someone should tell these paranoid people that most Canadians are not willing to risk life and limb to go to the States. Maybe these folks should be focusing instead on building that big ol' wall down along the Mexican border…
Crossing Over
The impending move to Wyoming is finally at hand.
We first found out about the posting for Doug's new job back in early July, but it's taken two months to get all the paperwork squared away and to convince them that we'd actually prefer to move sooner rather than later. Bouncing from family home to family home is not a long-term solution as far as we're concerned…
Doug's Work Visa application arrived last Friday after we'd gone away on a sanity-seeking mission in Merrickville, ON. We stopped watching the pot for one day and it finally boiled! Now we've launched into overdrive: the U-haul truck is booked (we'll be towing our Mini Cooper behind it on a flat-bed trailer); the hotels en-route and at our destination are reserved; and we've set up new US dollar bank accounts. We knew that it would be a game of wait…..wait… now HURRY!
Now, I am a little worried that we'll get down to the border at Sarnia, ON next Thursday and be turned away. Apparently how it works is we bring Doug's Visa application and all our supporting paperwork there and then we're interviewed by an immigration officer. Technically, he or she can reject us, but Doug assures me this is not likely.
Actually, Doug has had to reassure me a lot the past couple of days. Yesterday when I was trying to book us a hotel in Rock Springs, WY (where we'll be living for the next 19 months or so) for a week, I discovered that many of the hotels were booked up for long-term stay. One of the reservation agents I spoke with who lives in RS says he's had one fellow living in the hotel for SIX MONTHS! The agent told me that he was looking to rent an apartment and the cheapest he could find was $1000 for a "crappy loft" amd that housing prices were basically double what properties were worth. Sounds like another Fort McMoney (otherwise known as Fort McMurray in northern Alberta)!
As Doug reminds me, though, we are getting a a housing stipend (unknown amount at this point) from the company, and that should put us in a competitive position to rent a decent place for our time there. In fact, the company is going to reimburse us for our moving expenses, a 7-day stay in Rock Springs while we house-hunt, and will give us money for meals and household goods while we're there. Mothers: tell your children to become mechanical engineers!!!
Ongoing Mysteries
Doug and I are still living day-to-day and week-to-week regarding the move to Wyoming. Everyone I've spoken with thinks it's very strange we don't know when we're actually moving or where we'll be living when we get down there. Me too!
I knew there would be a lot of hoops to jump through and headaches to contend with, but I think even I'm surprised by the piecemeal nature of the information, the amount of paperwork, and the number of different people handling Doug's case. Just to name a few of our 'handlers': there's Camille in Calgary; Holly in Texas; Trina in Wyoming; and half a dozen other people scattered across North America.
We do have some information: we know that Doug's training begins in early October. He'll spend one week in Houston and then go to Kellyville, Oklahoma for five days of driving training. I guess that's where they'll teach him how to drive the big truck 🙂 Then he'll be in Rock Springs, WY for a few months of on-site training. Then back to Houston most likely for more in-class stuff. At least through all his back and forthing, I'll be in one place!
We are really hoping to move down to Rock Springs in early September so we can get settled in before Doug goes off to his training (and so I can focus properly on the book again!). While we wait for more information, though, we're doing everything possible to prepare. We've gathered most of our possessions at Doug's parents' place in Ottawa and we're sorting through things ruthlessly.
To try and stay as sane as possible through all this, I am indulging in more than my fair share of escapism. On the literary front, I'm reading Patricia Cornwell's Kay Scarpetta series from start to finish. Hard to think about moving when you're engrossed in a murder-mystery or grossed out by descriptions of forensics.
I'm also watching a British television series on DVD based on Elizabeth George's novels. It's called The Inspector Lynley Mysteries and the acting is superb, as are the shots of the British countryside. Makes me want to go back for a visit!
Of course, in-between books and episodes I am trying to get a bit of work done. My brain feels like cotton these days, though – far too much uncertainty and niggling details to concentrate. I have, however, sent off a story idea to The Beaver, Canada's history magazine. Hopefully they'll like the idea and I'll have something to keep me busy once the manuscript of the book is done!
Vancouver hammer incident another random act of violence
A few hours ago I received a disturbing message from one of my friends in Vancouver. Just after 10:30pm at Majestic, a popular gay nightspot on Davie St., a man came in brandishing a hammer. He injured several unsuspecting staff members and patrons. As my friend said, "there was blood everywhere." Luckily, my friend was out of harm's way. As I told him, this was one instance I was glad he smoked: he was outside having a cig while this was going on. From online media reports, it sounds like everyone went to the hospital to get checked out, and most required stitches. They should all – physically at least – recover quite quickly.
When I first learned of this attack, I was sure it was going to be an instance of targeted gay bashing as Vancouver Pride wound down. Now that the police reports have been issued, however, it appears as if it is 'simply' another random act of violence. According to Vancouver Police, after the man ran out of Majestic, he continued his rampage, hitting two women on the head with the hammer on a patio. He was eventually subdued by the women's male companion, who tackled him, sustaining some injuries in the process. Other passerby helped to hold the man while police cuffed him, and now it looks as though the assailant has suffered from mental illness for some time.
On the one hand, I am deeply relieved this violence was not directed specifically at Vancouver's gay population. On the other, we have all been gripped by the grizzly Greyhound bus incident the past few days, and this is just one more bizarre act of random violence to reckon with.
Now I am worried about a different sort of bashing. It has come to light that the Greyhound attacker immigrated to Canada from China four years ago. Vancouver Police identifited this recent "hammer man" as "Middle Eastern" and I worry that the ignorant among us Canadians will use these incidents as fodder for their prejudiced views.
Let us remember, then, the random act of violence that a group of white Canadians in Owen Sound, Ontario recently committed against an innocent black man. What local police believe began as a case of mistaken identity escalated into a heinous, life-threatening beating that they are saying was likely fueled by racism.
"If I had a hammer, I'd hammer out a warning. I'd hammer out love between my brothers and my sisters all over this land."

Word of Mouth: Guy Ritchie returns to form with 'Sherlock' [video]
Once known only for directing arty gangster movies such as "Snatch" (and for having been married to Madonna), British director Guy Ritchie burst onto the blockbuster scene with 2009's "Sherlock Holmes." Although the movie featured a few of the filmmaker's stylish touches, his real handiwork is much more evident in Dec. 16's sequel, "Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows."
Audience tracking surveys suggest Ritchie's sequel, in which Holmes (Robert Downey Jr.) and Watson (Jude Law) try to foil an international plot, could be the holiday season's biggest hit. While Ritchie is now developing a remake of "The Man From U.N.C.L.E." with producing partner Lionel Wigram, he may soon be asked to direct a third "Sherlock Holmes" film.
Times staff writer John Horn discusses all of this in this week's Word of Mouth column, and in this video.
On the Set: Robert Downey Jr., Jude Law talk 'Sherlock Holmes'
On the trail of the cinematic Sherlock Holmes
Guy Ritchie calls marriage to Madonna a 'soap opera'

The I-theater breaks a few new grounds.
The I-theater breaks a few new grounds.
The I-theater, by BMG, is a new head mounted display that utilizes older technology, to give you the most compact, simplistic
HMD for an affordable price. The I-theater boasts about 210,000 pixels in its display, making it ideal for watching
movies on, but not for reading small text.
When you hook up the I-theater for the first time, what you're amazed and thrilled by is the breakthrough design!
The I-theater is a most compact product that folds up like a pair of glasses with two earbuds that clip to the stems.
The earphones are not that great in quality, which is a drawback, and what's more they're not detachable. So if they
go bad, you have to get special repairs done for this unit and God only knows where you'll go for THAT!
Overall, I'd have to say that if you're looking for a gaming experience on an HMD, you better steer clear of the I-theater.
Although, for a portable headset, games on 16-bit and previous consoles look great on it, because they're much brighter and
colorful in nature, and bright and colorful looks good on these, which is why they're ideal for movies and such.
And the battery pack that powers the unit is unbelievably small and lasts upwards of 8-10 hours! Plus, you can
also hook these up to your Ipod video, which is quite an awesome concept for completely portable, high quality viewing on
the road. The only concern I have is how close your I-pod would have to sit to the battery pack, seeing as how
the cord between the two is only two inches long!! Oh well, I'm sure you'll keep both in a little carry case or something.
The I-theater has some downsides. First of all, the screen is going to strike you as quite small, especially if
you've never used an HMD in your life and don't know what you're getting into. Playing your next-gen video game machine
is going to be very frustrating on these. For one thing, since the visuals are not super-bright, and have no pictures
settings you can adjust whatsoever, you're going to be fidgeting the unit around on your nose to be able to clearly see the
whole picture. The images in a dark first-person-shooter, for example, are going to be a strain to see clearly, as there
will be some unsightly glare inside the I-theater. This is mainly due to the prism lens that is very shine-inducing.
The comfort of the unit is also a bit of a mixed bag. The unit is very light, but still when a unit rests primarily
on your nose, even a little weight can feel a bit cumbersome. The unit will definitely be just heavy enough to leave
an imprint on your nose, but not before moving it all around on your face to get to that comfort level you're looking for.
The most frustrating thing is you'll never find it! The unit comes with two nose-pieces. One soft rubber one that
simply sits on your nose with a tiny groove, and larger much more contour-curved nosepiece that looks like a swimmer's nose
plug. It's hardly comfortable at all, and even if you think it's much better, you'll ultimately say, "Screw it!" and
go back to the first one.
Bad for immersive gaming, but great for movies!
