2 disappointedwellgot | 13/06/2011 | See all wellgot's reviews (1)Previously i have been impressed by the yearly reviews and their production and therefore happy to buy as usual this years review. However upon reciept I am disappointed as they have changed various things, the production team for one, the editors of the game replays are poor two fold, one because all games have one voice throughout and the camera angles strange and poorly shown.The lack of replays of the goals scored this year was also disappointing. I don't usually write reviews but this year my views are so strong I had to make a stand.Give the old production team their jobs back !!!!!!!!!!
2 Dissapointingtomwayne | 11/06/2011 | See all tomwayne's reviews (1)I hate to say it, but the editing is awful on this. Strange angles are used for the majority of the goals with no replays evident for half of them. It all feels very rushed and it has left a big united fan dissapointed
1 OMG What have they donephilhouse | 13/06/2011 | See all philhouse's reviews (5)I cant believe how bad this DVD is. I have every season review since the late 90s and they have always followed the same structure, i.e. original match action as shown on TV with original commentators. This DVD has the same commentators for every match (?????) and the goals are shown from every angle except the original TV angle that you see when watching the match live. To say im disappointed is an understatement. They have ruined the whole DVD. I turned it off after 5 minutes as it is impossible to enjoy it when you see the goals from these awful bizzare angles with no replays and each match last for about 15 seconds as all the goals are shown briefly. Suffice to say, until they go back to the way they were before I will not be buying anymore of them and I seriously recommend anyone who has bought one before to avoid this. Very disappointed United fan.
1 Patheticnrkd76 | 22/06/2011 | See all nrkd76's reviews (4)Pathetic, poor and a waste of time. What away to celebrate our 19th title. This is a poor excuse for a DVD. I could have edited this better after a skin full of alcohol. United are obviously feeling the pinch (like I did when I went to see us beat Chelski this season 75.00 for my ticket), they bought all production in house and MUTV crew have wrecked this.
1 Shocking.Slater1985 | 01/07/2011 | See all Slater1985's reviews (1)The production of the dvd is shocking, wierd angles set to horrible music lots of slow motion and mutv commentary which is auful. Last seasons dvd only had mutv commentary during carling cup games, so why change it is so much now? A new dvd should be released as soon as possible with normal carmera angles as they are shown on tv during the game as it happens and sky/itv commentary. The fans that pay so much money into the club during every season year after year desereve a decent season review of their record breaking title win. I have been mugged.

Customer Reviews
Missed Notifications
Really great chess app, but have to ding it because one of its core concepts doesn't work very well:
Notifications that you have a move waiting fail to show up quite frequently. ie problem with background refresh.
I've noticed that if you leave the app for any reason at a time when its communicating with the server (ie when you get the spinning indication at the top) , the app seems to just hang there and fails to notify you of any moves ever. The only way to get it to start working again is to open the app back up and wait for it to contact the server again and then attempt to leave when it's not talking to the sever. Please fix this!
No practice mode
Moves can take a long time to show up even after the notification of a move has happened. Also would love to have a practice mode.
Won't update games
Updating games notification last minutes. Sometimes will never update on phone but will on iPad. Have to force close the app multiple times every day.

Ok, so I know how annoying all of the "will this fit" threads can be over and over, so I decided to play it smart. Before posting I did all the research, and by research, I mean browsed this forum for a couple hours.
After seeing these "wheelers" mentioned over and over again, and having recognized them from seeing them in person on a taco, I knew these were the rims for me. I have a 2010 trd sport, double cab, so I know I need the 16x8's. Now my questions is for tires. I found some t/a ko's in a 285/75r16 for a good price. Which equals a tire just under 33x11.5. On the wheelers website, they have type a for up to 11.5" tires, with a 4.5" bs. And type b for 12.5" tires, 4" bs. Now these tires being just under 11.5" should fit fine with type a, but type b should give it a wider stance, which is a look I am looking for.
Are there any disadvantages or maybe advantages by doing this (other then laws or VI's). And will this require a body mount cut, or just the regular fender trim, mudflap removal?
Thanks for being patient and for the help in advance.
Edit: Forgot to mention 3/1" lift/leveling kit. No that it matters for my question, I just know someone will ask.

Narrow your search
At CES 2015, Alcatel showed off one entry-level smartphone with a heap of permutations. Bottom line: the Pixi 3 that goes on sale in your neighborhood may be completely different than one halfway around the world.

Countless permutations on specs and even the phone's OS mean that there's no one way to get a Pixi.
Both companies will be coming on strong in the US as they fight to capture your attention. They won't find it easy going.

And so, I will be looking forward to a release date of 12/22/12.
I look forward to the many one liners to come.
If it was actually released it could never live up to exceptions
Well I expect great things from gear box.
Me too.
Borderlands…. Plus Dewk Newkum…. Fuck yea…..
I didn't really think that borderlands was that great, but they did make Half-life opposing forces, and made the only good Halo.
I liked Borderlands… But then again ive only played/beaten like 3 games in my life so i wouldnt know whats good XD
The problem with games is that they sorta all take off each other.
that's sorta why I like the RTS genre.
Borderlands tried for too many weapons.
Halo: Combat Evolved was awesome, though ODST was underrated, IMO.
I played Super Mario Brothers, Duke Nukem Zero Hour, Mercenaries Playground of Destruction, No More Heroes, and Borderlands with my brothers… And those I really liked. But thats basically all. Im not too high on games.
I bet you that the games gonna be crap.
Im sure it will be very good, but therz no way it will be able to live up to its expectations.
@Jeane That is true. You guys remember this? (EDIT, this wasn't very good.)
Remember Daikatana?
@Da, Yea i saw it in theatres with my sister, thought it was funny sorta. I love Eddie Murphy.
@Terry, no.
I remember when I was a child, my mother would play Duke Nukem. We would all gather around the computer and watch as she gave money to the strippers.
I was like… 6 or 7?
My favorite place was the movie theater. good times… good times.
Duke Nukem taking forever is a meme. Someone get started on an entry :P
It certainly is. But memetic content would be hard to lop together into an entry.
Anyways his lines are a meme for sure.
Huh… Your right, WHY DDNT ANYBODY EVER THINK OF THIS!?!!?!?!?!?!!?!
Already a memeber? | Don't have an account? |

Suddenly, my 6-year-old son decided to have an imaginary friend. What do you do with them? Ignore them? Tell them they can't have one? Are they harmful?
Dr. Greene's Answer:
Imaginary friends are very common among children between 3 to 7 years old and usually not a problem – as long as they don't interfere with carrying on normal life. It's best not to try to talk kids out of them, but to inquire about what the friend is thinking and doing. Imaginary friends give parents a great window into what kids are thinking. Imaginary friends are a sign of creativity; they are not a signal of loneliness or stress. You don't want to dwell on the friend, but from time to time joining your son in the imagination is great. Imaginary friends usually disappear within 6 months, whether or not you encourage them.

Inventory Management with virtual bags divided into sections.
See http://old.wowace.com/Baggins for more info!
Would it be possible to add a "Deposit all reagents" button or right click option to the bank view?
That's been slightly annoying me as well. Your solution seems reasonable to me so I've put up a new revision including that fix. Thanks!
Noticing an error when I have a custom category of "Equipment Set". I have a dps and a healing set showing in my bags. I have 2 belts of the same name, just different gems, in each set. If I switch from wearing healing to dps, the healing belt is still showing under the dps category. What's happening is that when I login, the dps belt in my bag gets cached in Baggins:CheckSlotsChanged() as dps. When I switch to dps, the healing belt gets placed in the same bag/slot, and Baggins thinks the item hasn't changed so shows it under the wrong category.
The cache is using item id, count, and the name - none of those change in this case. I tried a quick test and added the link instead of the name, and everything shows correctly in the bag now. Maybe you can grab the unique id off the item string or something instead, not sure what the best solution is to fix it.
Following patch fixes the blue border:

text: The Dangerous, Part 3 wiki last edited by comicguy2 on 07/24/13 05:33PM View full history Though the X-Men can hardly believe it, Emma informs them that the Danger Room has mutated – becoming a sentient being… and is angry. Immediately, they take steps remove its computer functions by having Colossus tear through it's "brain," but the Danger Room defends itself by activating the X-wing jet, using it to crash through the mansion and then fire upon the team with its ordinance. Inside the Danger Room, the room continues to communicate through the animated corpse of Wing. First, it creates a hellish world to frighten the students, then changing it to a desert, which is then filled with skulls instead of sand. All the while, the Danger Room entity speaks with Kitty, explaining its actions through cryptic riddles as to its origin, purpose and transcendence. Kitty realizes too late that her teammates actions outside to destroy the entity is actually freeing it, which was its plan all along. Moments after Wolverine succeeds in destroying the sphere housing its command core, the Danger Room entity uses the wreckage of the Institute to create a robotic body – and then asks the X-Men if they "shall begin."

48415930. Eclectic Gipsyland. How to Crochet: Tunisian Simple Stitch (TSS) This tutorial is for both right and left handed people.
For left handed pictures, roll your mouse over the image and it will change for you. Tunisian stitches also known as afghan stitches, create a very elegant basket weaved look. Tunisian stitches are like a cross between crocheting and knitting because in crocheting these stitches it involves leaving loops on your hook when you are crocheting forward and then removing them when you crochet in reverse. Oh!villo. "de Rudolf crochet" Shara Lambeth Designs: Crochet Chain Link Necklace Tutorial.
Hello friends!
I have had many, many requests for a How-To tutorial so others could make a Crochet Chain Link Necklace, so I thought I ought to do it :-) These necklaces are simple, pretty & even practical, yep, they're baby proof! So here's what you need to know to make yourself a Crochet Chain Link Necklace: Page 1 of 14. Do you dare to wear a granny square? I'm not sure if I'd manage a granny square evening dress….
But I'm loving the cowl I made last week and have been quite excited to show you! I must apologise for the photos, I've cropped them right down this week, so you can't see the whole effect, but let me tell you, it really is lovely, I tried it on my friend to see how it looked on someone and couldn't get it off her and back around my neck fast enough! Being that we are heading into winter at what seems like a veeeeeery fast pace right now, I'm obsessed with cowls and this I have to tell you, is the first of a series of cowl posts. Bauble Decoration. I designed these little hanging decorations to add some colourful, homespun Hooky Goodness to my Christmas Tree this season, but there's no reason why they can't be used all year round and in all sorts of ways.
I've had suggestions for using them as baby rattles, baby mobiles, as tags on wrapped gifts, or simply just as little decorative gifts to pass on to friends and family. These are quick and satisfying little things to work up, ideal to use up those little itty bits of stash yarn that you might have lurking somewhere. I personally prefer to use cotton yarn for making decorations (here I've used Rico Creative Cotton), but any yarn would be fine. I also tend to switch down a hook size for making decorations which keeps the stitches quite tight and prevents the polyester stuffing showing through the gaps.

Akali is the only championg that I never got the hang of it when playing against. I even want to say OP.
correction. Phantom1516 mid= GG
Akali mid is no fun to deal with, but the best way to beat her is to prevent her from getting minions. I've found that Xerath, starting with cloth armor, 2 health pots and 3 mana pots and constantly harassing with Q seems to work, build the cloth armor into seeker's armguard, grab Tear of the Goddess and Void Staff right after, constantly grab mana pots until you can stay in lane without running out of mana. Sacrificing a bit of AP for more early game mana is the best option when dealing with Akali. If she runs to gank, try to follow her and prevent any kills. This, combined with constant ganks from your jungler, can starve her of gold and eliminate most of her late game presence. Ask any questions you might have, and I will try to answer.
Fids says hi! Everytime i see akali mid I pick fids and enjoy the free lane win
i have to admit, she is really stupid because if you feed one kill in a lane against a akali its over. but when i fight an akali, i either try to kill her pre level 6 or passivly farm (depending on who i am). But i usually recall when she reaches 6 and rush a negatron cloak because i usually have enough money. and then i can fight her. But if she gets a lead on you... your ****ed hard
Lee Sin > Akali
Just to reiterate, Cho'gath Counters Akali several ways -Massive amounts of health negates burst -Passive gives sustain. -AoE silence counters Mages -Pop-up counters everything -E AoE AA harass -True Damage ult =P Cho'gath is the best Akali-counter IMO.
I prefer annie vs akali. Akali ults to you, stun her. If you have your full combo ready, q-w-r-ignite-e and if she might live throw down the vision ward as she's about to throw down her invis bubble. She's squishy enough that even a sneeze at this point should kill her.

Puffy AmiYumi
Just two years ago, the expansive, wonderful world of East Asian pop was mostly a mystery to me I'm embarrassed to admit, I didn't know Ayumi Hamasaki from Hitomi Shimatani.

Puffy AmiYumi: Hi Hi Puffy AmiYumi
Puffy AmiYumi takes bellwether Beatles riffs and dresses them in the sonic accoutrements of their '70s imitators -- the arena-sized bombast of Cheap Trick, the sci-fi sound effects of ELO, the happy harmonies of Abba, the hyperhookiness of the Raspberries -- to create karaoke-ready J-pop.

I'm looking to level off my truck a bit, but keep some rake for when I tow. (I don't want it to look like it did before the TSB)
I want to have good alignment, and keep as close to the factory ride as possible (being my daily driver 24 miles to work one way). I've ready too many posts from guys having issues with the 5100's set at 2.5 and 1.75, even some at .85 to want to go that route.
Keeping a small budget, here's what I am thinking of, please let me know if I'm off at all, or if you have a better solution.
OME 883's with 5100's at all four corners, fronts set at '0'. Right now, my truck sits at 35.5" for both front wheel wells (NO LEAN!), and 37.75" for the rears, after the TSB. I figure the new leaf pack is as settled as it's going to get after hauling dirt, mulch, etc as well as towing my boat all summer. I'm going to go up to BFG A/T in 265/70/17 before winter, and will do all of this at one time. Anybody running this? Any suggestions? Thanks

text: Pin It Pin It Pin It Pin It Pin It Pin It Pin It Pin It Harrier and Jaguar – Sculpture | Fiona Banner "Tate Britain today unveils its new Duveens Commission, Harrier and Jaguar, by Fiona Banner. Banner's largest work to date, Harrier and Jaguar brings the highly-charged physicality of two real fighter jets, both previously in active military service, into the unexpected setting of the neoclassical Duveen Galleries. Harrier and Jaguar has been specially devised for the Tate Britain Duveens Commission 2010, supported by Sotheby's. In the South Duveens, a Sea Harrier jet is suspended vertically, its bulk spanning floor to ceiling, wall to wall. Mimicking its namesake the harrier hawk, the aircraft's surface has been reworked with handpainted graphic feather markings – the cockpit, the eyes, the nose cone, the beak – and hung nose pointing towards the floor, bringing to mind a trussed bird. In the North Duveens, a Sepecat Jaguar lies belly-up on the floor, its elegant, elongated body traces the length the gallery. Stripped of paint and polished to reveal a metallic surface, the aircraft becomes a mirror that reflects back its surroundings and exposes the audience to its own reactions. Harrier and Jaguar achieves a powerful presence loaded with the seductive and yet troubling qualities of these objects of war. Here, Banner places recently decommissioned fighter planes in the incongruous setting of the Duveen Galleries. For Banner these objects represent the 'opposite of language', used when communication fails. In bringing body and machine into close proximity she explores the tension between the intellectual perception of the fighter plane and physical experience of the object. The suspended Sea Harrier transforms machine into captive bird, the markings tattooing its surface evoking its namesake the Harrier Hawk. A Jaguar lies belly up on the floor, its posture suggestive of a submissive animal. Stripped and polished, its surface functions as a shifting mirror, exposing the audience to its own reactions. Harrier and Jaguar remain ambiguous objects implying both captured beast and fallen trophy. "I remember long sublime walks in the Welsh mountains with my father, when suddenly a fighter plane would rip through the sky, and shatter everything. It was so exciting, loud and overwhelming; it would literally take our breath away. The sound would arrive from nowhere, all you would see was a shadow and then the plane was gone. At the time harrier jump jets were at the cutting edge of technology but to me they were like dinosaurs, prehistoric, from a time before words." Fiona Banner said: "It's hard to believe that these planes are designed for function, because they are beautiful. But they are absolutely designed for function, as a bird or prey is, and that function is to kill. That we find them beautiful brings into question the very notion of beauty, but also our own intellectual and moral position. I am interested in that clash between what we feel and what we think." Penelope Curtis, Director of Tate Britain, said: "The power of Banner's project lies in its simple but unlikely juxtaposition: two fighter jets in a suite of neo-classical galleries." A fascination with language and signs is central to Fiona Banner's practice. The emblem of the fighter jet recurs throughout her work, part of an ongoing enquiry into how signs translate experience. They appeared in pencil drawings she made at art college and then later in her first 'wordscape' in 1994 which transcribed the film Top Gun into a frame-by-frame written account. Aircraft are also present in more recent work where the artist has created Airfix models of all the war planes currently in service throughout the world and a taxonomy of fighter-plane nicknames. Harrier and Jaguar extends the artist's exploration of these themes whilst constituting a dramatic new departure in terms of its monumental scale and the use of actual fighter jets. Deputy Chairman, Sotheby's Europe, Lord Poltimore, commented: "Tate Britain's Duveens Commission is among the art scene's most celebrated events and Sotheby's is extremely proud to once again be supporting it, and Tate, one of the world's leading public art institutions." Banner's Harrier and Jaguar is the latest in a series of sculpture displays in the Duveen Galleries at Tate Britain. The contemporary sculpture commissions have been an annual event for three years since 2008, through the generous support of Sotheby's. Artists who have previously undertaken the Commission include Eva Rothschild (2009), Martin Creed (2008), Mark Wallinger (2007), Michael Landy (2004), Anya Gallaccio (2002) and Mona Hatoum (2000). The series builds on a long tradition of exhibitions in the Duveen Galleries, which has included memorable installations by Richard Long, Richard Serra and Luciano Fabro."

The Lost Battles
A fascinating, daring look at Leonardo da Vinci, Michelangelo Buonarotti, and the artistic rivalry that shook the Renaissance.
Reviewed by Brooke Allen for Barnes & Noble Review
Leonardo da Vinci and Michelangelo Buonarotti are by general agreement the two greatest artists in European history; coincidentally (or perhaps not, as we shall see), they were near contemporaries and even acquaintances, both products of the art-obsessed Florence of the later Renaissance. These painters represented the culmination, each in his different manner, of the artistic revival that had begun in the 13th century. Inevitably, in this intensely competitive society, they were rivals for pre-eminence in their field. As Jonathan Jones tells us in his fascinating, revelatory, and often daring new study of the rivalry, The Lost Battles, this was a culture "in which ritualized vendetta was practiced as readily by artists as by aristocrats," a culture obsessed "with 'honour,' with the public image of a man and his family, which must not be sullied by insults or slights…. The story that the century's two greatest artists loathed each other found a ready audience."
In the 1540s, more than 20 years after Leonardo's death, an anonymous Florentine author related an anecdote about the two local heroes. Leonardo, it seems, was passing Florence's Palazzo Spini when some of his acquaintances hailed him and asked him to explain a passage of Dante for them.
It happened that just then Michelangelo passed by and one of them called him over. And Leonardo said: "Michelangelo will explain it to you." It seemed to Michelangelo that Leonardo had said this to mock him. He replied angrily: "You explain it yourself, you who designed a horse to be cast in bronze but couldn't cast it and abandoned it in shame." And having said this, he turned his back on them and left. Leonardo remained there, his face turning red.

Children | Josh Evans (b. 1971) |
Robert Evans (born June 29, 1930) is an American film producer and former studio executive, best known for his work on Rosemary's Baby, Love Story, The Godfather and Chinatown.
Evans was born Robert J. Shapera in New York City, New York, the son of Florence, a housewife who came from a wealthy family, and Archie Shapera, a dentist in Harlem.[1] He grew up on New York City's Upper West Side during the 1930s, where he was better off than most people living during the Great Depression. In his early years, he did promotional work for Evan-Picone, a fashion company founded by his brother Charles, in addition to doing voice work on radio shows.
He was spotted by actress Norma Shearer next to the pool at The Beverly Hills Hotel on Election Day, 1956. She successfully touted him for the role of her late husband Irving Thalberg in Man of a Thousand Faces. The same year, Evans also caught the eye of Darryl F. Zanuck, who cast him as Pedro Romero in the 1957 film adaptation of Ernest Hemingway's The Sun Also Rises, against the wishes of co-star Ava Gardner and Hemingway himself.[2] In 1959, he appeared in Twentieth Century Fox's production of The Best of Everything with Hope Lange, Diane Baker and Joan Crawford.
Dissatisfied with his own acting talent, he was determined to become a producer. He got his start as head of production at Paramount by purchasing the rights to a 1966 novel titled The Detective which Evans made into a movie starring Frank Sinatra, Lee Remick, Jack Klugman, Robert Duvall and Jacqueline Bisset, in 1968. Peter Bart, a writer for The New York Times, wrote an article about Evans' aggressive production style. This got Evans noticed by Charles Bluhdorn, who was head of the Gulf+Western conglomerate, and hired Evans as part of a shakeup at Paramount Pictures (which included Bart, whom Evans would recruit as a Paramount executive).
When Evans took over as head of production for Paramount, the floundering studio was the ninth largest. Despite his inexperience, Evans was able to turn the studio around. He made Paramount the most successful studio in Hollywood and transformed it into a very profitable enterprise for Gulf+Western. During his tenure at Paramount, the studio turned out films such as Barefoot in the Park, The Odd Couple, Rosemary's Baby, The Italian Job, True Grit, Love Story, Harold and Maude, The Godfather, Serpico, Save the Tiger, The Conversation, The Great Gatsby, and many others.
Dissatisfied with his financial compensation and desiring to produce films under his own banner, Evans struck a deal with Paramount that enabled him to stay on as studio head while also working as an independent producer. Other producers at Paramount felt this gave Evans an unfair advantage. After the huge critical and commercial success of the Evans-produced Chinatown, he stepped down as production chief, which enabled him to produce films on his own. He went on to produce such films as Marathon Man, Black Sunday, Popeye, Urban Cowboy, The Cotton Club, The Two Jakes, Sliver, Jade, The Phantom, The Saint, and How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days.
Evans continues to produce, although the last film that he produced was released in 2003. He also produced and provided the voice for his eponymous character in the animated series Kid Notorious. Evans currently hosts the Sirius Satellite Radio show In Bed with Robert Evans.
Evans is currently in development on a film about the life of iconic auto executive John DeLorean. Brett Ratner is attached to direct and James Toback is currently writing the screenplay.[3] In addition, an HBO miniseries titled The Devil and Sidney Korshak is being developed with writer Art Monterastelli adapting.[4]
Evans has been married seven times but none of his marriages have lasted more than three years. His first was to Sharon Hugueny (1961–1962). After his first divorce came Camilla Sparv (1964–1967), Ali MacGraw (1969–1973), Phyllis George (1977–1978), Catherine Oxenberg (1998),[5] Leslie Ann Woodward (2002–2004), and Victoria White (2005–2006). Evans' marriage to Oxenberg was annulled after nine days.[6] He married his seventh wife, Victoria White O'Gara (widow of Lord Gordon White), while in Mexico, on August 2005 shortly after his 75th birthday. She filed for divorce on June 16, 2006, citing irreconcilable differences.[7] In the film adaptation of the autobiography The Kid Stays in the Picture, only Ali MacGraw is discussed, and their relationship is discussed at length. Evans has one son, Josh Evans, also a producer, from his marriage to MacGraw,[5] and one grandson, Jackson, born in 2010 to Josh Evans and daughter-in-law Roxy Saint, a singer.[8]Evans had one brother, Charles Evans a New York real estate developer and film producer (Tootsie, 1982, Monkey Shines 1988), and has one sister, Alice Shure a New York independent producer. Evans is the uncle to Documentary producer Charles Evans Jr, Al Jazeera reporter Michael Shure and Tony Shure founder of Chop't Salad
Joe Eszterhas repeatedly describes his friend, Evans, as "the devil" in his book, Hollywood Animal, and says that "all lies ever told anywhere about Robert Evans are true." His autobiography also goes into detail about a cocaine addiction that plagued Evans in the 1980s. Eszterhas's book The Devil's Guide to Hollywood: The Screenwriter as God includes an anecdote about Evans showing his appreciation for one of Eszterhas's scripts by sending him a woman with a "congratulatory note" inside her vagina.[9]
Evans was convicted of cocaine trafficking in 1980. He entered a guilty plea to a misdemeanor in federal court after being arrested after engineering a large cocaine buy with his brother Charles. As part of his plea bargain, he filmed an anti-drug TV commercial.[10] The alleged drug dealing, which Evans continues to deny (the misdemeanor was later wiped from his record), came out of his own involvement with the drug. He told the Philadelphia Inquirer in a 1994 interview, "Bob 'Cocaine' Evans is how I'll be known to my grave." He claimed that he should never have been convicted of federal selling and distribution charges, as he was only a user.[11]
Evans was introduced to the theatrical impresario Roy Radin, a producer of traveling musical and comedy revues, by cocaine dealer Karen Greenberger (aka Lanie Jacobs).[12] Radin was trying to break into the film industry with a movie about the legendary New York nightclub, the Cotton Club. Radin's financial situation was reportedly quite challenged due both to neglecting his live tours and reported drug-related situations. The deal arranged on the film The Cotton Club mandated that Evans and Radin establish a production company in which each would own 45% of the film with the remaining 10% split between two other parties.[13] Radin offered Greenberger (aka Jacobs) a $50,000 finders fee for her efforts which she found unsatisfactory.[14]
As The Cotton Club film financing was being arranged, the 33-year-old Radin was murdered in 1983. Contract killer William Mentzer was among four people sentenced for shooting Radin multiple times in the head and using dynamite to make identification by authorities more challenging.[15] At the trial, Karen Greenberger was convicted of second-degree murder and kidnapping. Her involvement was said to be over a fear of being cut out of a producer's role and potential profiting in the Cotton Club movie. As a result, the murder court case of Radin was dubbed the "Cotton Club" murder trial.[16]
Under the advice of his attorney Robert Shapiro, Evans refused to testify during a May 1989 preliminary hearing, invoking the Fifth Amendment to avoid incriminating himself.[17] When he took the stand during the hearing and was asked if he knew Roy Radin, Evans invoked the fifth. The police reports that had been submitted to obtain search warrants indicated at least two witnesses said Evans was involved in the Radin murder.[18]
Greenberger testified during her 1991 trial that Evans was not involved in the murder. She also claimed during her trial that she had been Evans' lover.[19]
Actors have admitted imitating Evans' distinctive mannerisms.
Orson Welles' unfinished final film, The Other Side of the Wind (1970–6), a scathing satire on 1970s Hollywood, has a young studio boss "Max David" played by Geoffrey Land, who Welles admitted was a spoof of Evans.[20]
In the 1997 movie Wag the Dog, a Washington, D.C. spin doctor distracts the electorate from a U.S. presidential sex scandal by hiring a Hollywood producer played by Dustin Hoffman. Hoffman's character was based directly upon Robert Evans. Hoffman emulated Evans' work habits, mannerisms, quirks, clothing style, hairstyle, and his large square-framed eyeglasses. The real Evans is said to have declared, "I'm magnificent in this film!"[21]
Bob Ryan, a recurring character in the HBO series Entourage is said to be based on Evans.[22] The character, portrayed by Martin Landau, was a successful movie producer in the 1970s who now chafes at no longer being considered a major Hollywood player. While Evans reportedly declined an offer to play the part himself, he did agree to allow his home to be used in the show as Bob Ryan's home.[23]
Evans served as the inspiration for a Mr. Show sketch, in which Bob Odenkirk portrays God recording his memoirs, dressed as and speaking like Evans. Odenkirk also attributes Evans as his primary influence on his portrayal of lawyer Saul Goodman in Breaking Bad.[24]
Smuggler Films has acquired the stage rights to Evans' memoirs, The Kid Stays in the Picture and its sequel, The Fat Lady Sang, which will be published in conjunction with the debut of the play. Award-winning director Sir Richard Eyre is set to direct with Jon Robin Baitz, in place to pen the stage play.[25]
Evans plays himself in the movie An Alan Smithee Film Burn Hollywood Burn (1998).
He likewise voices a fictionalised caricature of himself in the animated series, Kid Notorious, alongside his real-life butler, Alan "English" Selka, and next-door neighbor, former Guns N' Roses lead guitarist Saul "Slash" Hudson.
Evans also appears in the Bruce Campbell novel Make Love! The Bruce Campbell Way, with Bruce impersonating him to infiltrate the Paramount Studios lot.

Meteor that bombed Russia left telltale tracks seen from space (+video)
Finding the trajectory and orbit of meteors like the one that rocked Chelyabinsk, Russia, in February could help scientists predict other impacts, and weather satellites could help.
When a huge meteor blazed across the sky over the Russian city of Chelyabinsk in February, dashboard cameras in Russians' cars weren't the only eyes on the sky recording the event.
Weather satellites operated by the US as well as countries in Europe and Asia also captured the meteor's fall, and astronomers have now gone back to cull those data, tracing a debris trail in enough detail to allow them to reconstruct the object's trajectory and orbit, according to a new study.
In case of the Chelyabinsk event, scientists had already worked out the meteor's trajectory and calculated an orbit using videos from Russia dashboard cams. But their success in now replicating that feat with satellite data represents a promising new tool. After all, not every meteor will streak through the sky in a region filled with dash cam, and this new method could help scientists predict potentially damaging meteor strikes in the future.
It's important to establish an object's orbit, because astronomers can look along that orbital path to see if the first object to arrive has others coming in behind it – and, if so, what sort of risk they present. This is especially true when the meteor arrives without warning, as the Chelyabinsk meteor did, researchers say.
The vast majority of Chelyabinsk-scale objects, which can inflict significant damage, remain undiscovered, notes Donald Yeomans, a researcher at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, Calif., who manages NASA's Near-Earth Object Program Office.
In principle, weather satellites could help fill big geographic gaps in the ability to directly observe impactors, says Steven Miller, deputy director of the Cooperative Institute for Research in the Atmosphere at Colorado State University in Fort Collins, who led the team that conducted the study..

Media regulator wants UK law to enforce age checks on porn sites
Posted By Jeff Belanger On March 29, 2014 @ 12:50 AM In World Wide Web | 1 Comment
An independent regulator of the media wants is trying to push the government into making laws that would enforce the age checks on porn sites and ensure that no one under 18 is able to get through. Good luck with that.
The Authority for Television On Demand (ATVOD), which is the group leading this charge, are also specifically looking at ways they can deal with porn sites that are run from other countries, and not subject to British law. They outline their goals in this PDF [2].
The ATVOD is saying that those under 18 have "instant, free and unrestricted access to hardcore pornographic videos and still images featuring explicit images of real sex", and that these images "might seriously impair the development of under-18's."
Their main idea is to get the UK payment industry to stop any payments going to a porn website that doesn't have an age check system implemented. According to Ian Walden, who is a professor of communications and information law, as well as a solicitor, blocking payments isn't an easy thing to do.
"It's not even expressly clear that sites that don't have underage access checks are illegal under UK law," Walden said to Wired. "There is case law that suggests that, but what constitutes access controls and whether insufficient access controls gives rise to an offence under UK law is unclear."
"But is a 17-year-old teenage boy that has left home to go to the army, say, really going to have his development impaired by accessing hardcore pornography sites?" Walden adds. "Give me a break. At that age you can pay taxes — you can do all these things, but we have to protect you?"

BioMarin Announces Exercise By Underwriters Of Full Over-Allotment Option
SAN RAFAEL, Calif., Oct. 10, 2013 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- BioMarin Pharmaceutical Inc. (Nasdaq:BMRN) announced that the underwriters for its recently announced public offering of $680 million of its senior subordinated convertible notes consisting of $340 million 0.75% Senior Subordinated Convertible Notes due 2018 (the "2018 Notes") and $340 million 1.50% Senior Subordinated Convertible Notes due 2020 (the "2020 Notes" and together with the 2018 Notes, the "Notes") exercised in full their over-allotment option to purchase an additional $35 million principal amount of the 2018 Notes (the "Additional 2018 Notes") and an additional $35 million principal amount of the 2020 Notes (the "Additional 2020 Notes," and together with the Additional 2018 Notes, the "Additional Notes"). BioMarin intends to use the additional net proceeds of $67.9 million from the exercise of the over-allotment option for general corporate purposes, including working capital and research and development. In addition, BioMarin intends to use $2.78 million of the net proceeds from the exercise of the over-allotment option for the payment of the cost of the additional capped call transactions described below. The sale of the Notes and the Additional Notes is expected to close on October 15, 2013, subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions.
In connection with the exercise of the over-allotment option by the underwriters for the purchase of the Additional Notes, BioMarin entered into privately-negotiated capped call transactions with respect to 50% of the principal amount of the Additional Notes with one or more of the underwriters or their affiliates (the "hedge counterparties"). The capped call transactions are generally expected to reduce potential dilution to BioMarin's common stock upon conversion of the relevant Notes in excess of the principal amount of such converted Notes. The cap price of the capped call transactions entered into with respect to 50% of the Additional Notes will initially be, in each case, approximately $121.05, which represents a premium of approximately 80% over the NASDAQ closing price of a share of BioMarin's common stock on October 8, 2013 and is subject to certain adjustments under the terms of such capped call transactions.

5 Must-Own Dividend Stocks for 2013
Drug giant Pfizer (PFE - Get Report) is another must-own dividend name for 2013. The $200 billion pharmaceutical firm owns some of the most well known prescription pills on the market today -- and despite the threat of patent drop-offs that's been haranguing the whole pharma industry, Pfizer has been showing off its ability to save its bottom line with cost savings and M&A. Right now, this stock pays out a 3.42% dividend yield.
In 2009, Pfizer bought drugmaker Wyeth in a deal that dramatically increased the combined firm's drug pipeline while realizing massive merger cost savings. As a result, while Wall Street remains fixated on the negative effects from Lipitor's patent loss, Pfizer is pushing along a slew of phase I, II and III drug candidates that have the potential to reach blockbuster status.
Financially, Pfizer is in stellar shape. The firm boasts a $10 billion net cash position post-merger, on top of PFE's already strong cash flow generation abilities. Those factors should help keep the hefty payout from this big pharma firm intact for the foreseeable future. Once investors realize that, there should be some capital gains to go along with it.Check Out Our Best Services for Investors

"Every now and then say, 'What the fuck.' 'What the fuck' gives you freedom. Freedom brings opportunity. Opportunity makes your future." It was twenty years ago that a young man took his buddy's advice, ordering up a prostitute while his parents were away and finding that, a week later, he himself would become a pimp. "What the fuck" can do some pretty bizarre things. This is what another young man discovers in a vastly different part of the world as curiosity and "What the fuck" blaze a trail to brand new experience for him as the seedy underbelly of Jerusalem is revealed to us.
Visibly distracted by his curiosity of the outside world and his overwhelming urge to masturbate, rabbinical student Mendy is sent off by his teacher to visit a brothel in Tel Aviv so that he can take care of a little business, allowing him to get his mind back on his studies afterwards. But once Mendy sets out on his adventures through Jerusalem after dark, he's hooked. He falls in love with a 19-year-old Russian prostitute, lands a bartending gig, and gets himself wrapped up in a smuggling operation. Oh my.
"The Holy Land" offers a unique coming of age story in the way that, while Mendy is learning the ropes of being an adult the hard way, we too are getting an eye opening look at a side of Jerusalem we rarely ever get to see. This film is truly fresh and exciting. For those of you looking for something new, you'd be wise to check this one out.
