The jobs report arrived the other day accompanied by the general media observation that the economy is getting worse less fast. I love that description. Let's face it. No matter how you look at it, things in Shangri la are bad and there are not many bright spots.
The United States is paying a deep and sobering price for years of irresponsible lending and investment by the Money Changers. Remember when Jesus turned over the tables in the temple? He was tossing the Money Changers. I believe the new administration is doing everything it can to blunt and repair the effects of the Bush - Republican Recession. That said, if there is one area where I hope President Obama succeeds in doing over his term, it is establishing effective regulation on banks and investment houses. The lobbyists from those industries are already working hard to protect their clients, but in my opinion, the Money Changers cannot be trusted to police themselves. The system of business growth and compensation is designed to advance the aggressive salesperson and stifle the risk management department.
So where do this leave us on the jobs front? Batten down the hatches and stock up on supplies from the warehouse. If you have a job, protect it. (I bet I just told you something you didn't know, eh?) If you are under-employed, do your best to protect the job you have but keep looking for a better one try to advance out of under employment. If you are out of work, you probably should consider taking what you can get, even if it is part time. I've spoken to a number of people in the past month who are working two part time jobs. This is the time to do whatever it takes to get through the crisis.
Those things that don't kill us make us stronger. I love cliches; (have you noticed?). I hope this economic crisis makes us all stronger. But I would settle for a little more common sense.

Winnipeg Free Press - PRINT EDITION
Saskatchewan students will benefit from standard tests
Saskatchewan students should get ready to write a lot more tests. By 2016, all students in Grades 4 to 12 will write yearly standardized tests in reading, writing, math, and science. This is good news for public education and, if implemented properly, should lead to improved academic achievement for Saskatchewan students.
While the province currently administers some standardized tests to Saskatchewan students, it does so only every other year. In addition, students write each test in only two or three grades. So while the current testing system provides a sample of student achievement, it is too limited in scope to have much of an impact.
A more comprehensive approach to standardized testing will benefit students in a number of ways. One is that these tests will provide the provincial government with a more accurate understanding of academic achievement throughout the province. With this information, the province will be able to target additional support and intervention to schools with low results and also learn from schools that get better results.
As for the concern that schools in rich neighbourhoods will automatically outperform schools in poor neighbourhoods, yearly standardized testing can do far more than simply provide raw scores. Rather, the province will be able to track improvement from year to year. So a school in a poor neighbourhood that shows consistent achievement gains would actually be considered more successful than a school in a rich neighbourhood that remains stagnant. This type of measurement can only be done if the tests are carried out on an annual basis in all grades, as the government has proposed.
Another benefit is standardized tests help teachers focus their instruction on the mandated curriculum. Knowing their students will be tested on the curriculum provides teachers with a strong incentive to cover the key concepts thoroughly. Without standardized tests in place, it is almost impossible to be sure if teachers have actually taught the complete curriculum.
Opposition to the standardized testing announcement came from predictable sources. In an interview with Radio 650 CKOM, Saskatchewan Teachers' Federation president Colin Keess said that additional standardized tests will not help teachers identify the strengths and weaknesses of their students. According to Keess, this is because "standardized assessments are not as useful for informing the daily practices of the teachers." This is a common sentiment among teachers' unions across the country.
This objection, however, reflects a misunderstanding of the purpose for regularly administered standardized tests. Nothing in the government's announcement states standardized testing is expected to take the place of the professional judgment of teachers in their classrooms. Rather, such testing helps provide a more complete picture of student achievement across the province.
In fact, both teacher-created assessment and standardized testing are essential for a balanced approach to student assessment. Teacher-created assessment ensures teachers can take individual student needs into account when designing and evaluating assignments and tests. Standardized testing introduces systematic balance with an objective measurement tool that makes it possible to determine whether provincial curriculum standards have been met.
Another objection was raised by Patrick Lewis, an associate professor in the University of Regina's education faculty. According to the Regina Leader Post, Lewis argued that standardized testing provides only a snapshot of student performance and not a complete picture of overall achievement. He also expressed concern that teachers would simply teach to the test.
This concern can be addressed, however, by making sure the tests are properly correlated with the provincial curriculum. It makes sense to ensure the tests are broad in scope and go beyond an assessment of basic skills. One way to do this is to have the tests also measure content knowledge in the various subject areas. This should reduce the temptation for schools to sacrifice important subjects such as science and social studies when preparing for these tests.
As part of the announcement, Education Minister Russ Marchuk explained that 13 teachers from across the province will be responsible for designing these tests. While it makes sense to give local teachers significant input into the design of these tests, hopefully Marchuk also plans to include measurement experts in the design process. For example, Alberta has the most advanced standardized testing system in the country and officials in its education department could give valuable input about the proper design of these tests.
If designed and implemented properly, standardized testing should result in a better education for the students of Saskatchewan.

First off, I just want to say I never thought Past Sins would get as popular as it did. I just wrote a story I wanted to write, and when I first published it I hoped it was going to be as popular as Better Living, which was my most rated fic at the time.
So, I just want to say thank you to everyone that's made fan-art, fan-music, fan-anything for Past Sins and Nyx. You really do honor me with your time and energy. Even though all this attention has made some people despise the story, and by association me, I don't regret a moment of it. I'm happy I was able to present a story so many people like, and Past Sins itself has been a massive learning experience for me.
Now, to get to the real reason I'm making this post. There is another artist here on DA who is beginning and undertaking that ASTOUNDS me. It's something that the fans of the story should love, though I also fear some of the flames it will draw.
To put it simply, space-is-pretty-big is endeavoring to make Past Sins into a comic. He already has the first 5 panels done, and he'd done them very well.
So, please, if you liked Past Sins head over to space-is-pretty-big and give him some support.

Doomed from start
Doomed from start
I could not disagree with John Tomase more ("2012 disaster all on Bobby V," Sept. 21). The Sox problems starting when pitching coach John Farrell left, and the pitching staff went with beer and chicken. Ownership should have realized this and shipped out the bad apples such as Josh Beckett. Bobby Valentine, if he had had his own staff and ownership support, may have had a chance for a decent year. But he never really had a chance for us to judge him properly. He was constantly on the defensive. It is so obvious now with hindsight.

POSTED: Tuesday, November 20, 2012 - 5:30pm
UPDATED: Tuesday, November 20, 2012 - 5:34pm
Baton Rouge, La (NBC33) — Some teachers at the Baton Rouge Community College are angry over a payroll mishap.
After a meeting this morning, about one hundred teachers were informed that they will have to pay back a large sum of money to the school.
The error stemmed from an auditing mistake made a while ago. Now, almost $600,000 is owed to the school by these teachers.
The people who work nine months but get their pay dispersed over twelve months are the ones being affected.
Officials with BRCC say they will work with the teachers to help them develop a feasible payback plan, but teachers are still upset.
Almost all of the teachers NBC33 talked with are furious about this situation, but most did not want to comment on camera.

Super Caves of Chaos Explore
Recently I have been champing at the bit to both play Super Dungeon Explore and run a group through B2 The Keep on the Borderlands. And then the other day it hit me: why not do both at the same time?
I would need to figure out ahead of time where the generators went in each cave and what ratio of the appropriate monster type each of them spawned. I would also have to make cave-specific treasure decks. I think I would start by trying to convert the seven basic classes in B/X D&D to their SDE equivalents though.
My only real concern is that by using dungeon tiles or a battlemat and D&D minis, the game may lose a lot of the ambiance that makes SDE what it is. Will the mechanics alone be enough to retain its charm? Or will it just create a watered-down and farcical version of Basic D&D?
If I can do it right though, maybe it will be a very entertaining way to experience the Caves of Chaos…

What woman could say no to a man with such a great smile? That man could have a good time even in a disaster. Men are getting grumpier every day and the women are tired of it.
I've often talked about "Howard" my rooster. He had an attitude of happiness that the hens literally waited in line for his attention. His true love was a Rhode Island Red gorgeous hen "Thelma" who tried to ignore the passionate Howard but when the sun went down, they could be found sharing a branch of my Pepper tree. When the day was over, all the other hens were scattered in other trees. There is a message to be learned here and it is to note where and with whom the rooster sleeps at night.
There was also the problem that Howard was a Filipino Bantam (small) and was often thrown over Thelma's head when she was not in the mood. Howard would gather his pride, take a walk around the yard and try again.
Only a fool would watch television when my loving couple chickens would spend their days together. Howard always had 3 other hens who would look away in shock and, I believe, envy.
I lived in that house for 18 years and was known as "Howard's Mother." I could not even sell the house as long as Howard lived with us. After he did not come home for over a week, I knew I could list the property. I warned the new owner to cultivate the old boy and keep an eye on the wine cellar as if Howard could locate a hen, the eggs would be there. He was never seen again.

1. Gentoo Linux Security Advisory
Version Information
Related bugreports: #64166
The foomatic-rip filter in foomatic-filters contains a vulnerability which may allow arbitrary command execution on the print server.
2. Impact Information
Foomatic is a system for connecting printer drivers with spooler systems such as CUPS and LPD. The foomatic-filters package contains wrapper scripts which are designed to be used with Foomatic.
There is a vulnerability in the foomatic-filters package. This vulnerability is due to insufficient checking of command-line parameters and environment variables in the foomatic-rip filter.
This vulnerability may allow both local and remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands on the print server with the permissions of the spooler (oftentimes the "lp" user).
3. Resolution Information
There is no known workaround at this time.
All foomatic users should upgrade to the latest version:
Code Listing 3.1: Resolution
# emerge sync # emerge -pv ">=net-print/foomatic-3.0.2" # emerge ">=net-print/foomatic-3.0.2"

U.S. DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION FEDERAL AVIATION ADMINISTRATION Air Traffic Organization Policy
a. Electronic Commissioning:
1. Subsequent to the initial installation of an ARSR/ASR system, the provisions of FAAO 8200.1, United States Standard Flight Inspection Manual, para 215 must be satisfied prior to the electronic commissioning of the facility.
2. Major equipment modifications or major component changes to existing installations may necessitate a special flight check to reaffirm that the radar is continuing to meet the original commissioning criteria. When such a change is made, the new type equipment must be electronically commissioned in accordance with subpara 1 above.
3. If ASR equipment cannot meet the surveillance approach requirement during the flight check, consider this phase of the flight check as secondary and commission the equipment for its primary purpose of providing radar traffic control service.
b. Operational Implementation:
1. When a radar facility is to be commissioned, a 60-day period of use (without the application of radar separation standards) should elapse between the electronic commissioning date and the inauguration of radar air traffic control service. This period will permit controllers to gain experience in tracking, vectoring, and identification. It will better ensure a full understanding of the equipment, procedures, and services to be provided. However, this 60-day period is not mandatory and may be reduced or eliminated provided NOTAM requirements can be satisfied and the Service Area office is assured that the intended service can be carried out in a safe and efficient manner.
2. Only one phase of service should be implemented at a time. A period of 30 to 60 days should elapse between the implementation of subsequent phases. For example, ARTCCs may initiate en route service on specific routes or within specified areas; terminals may implement either arrival or departure service 30 to 60 days prior to expanding to other areas/services. Advertised services must be implemented on an all-aircraft basis and must be accomplished in accordance with FAAO JO 7110.65, Air Traffic Control. If services are initially implemented on a "part-time" basis, the daily hours (preferably 8 hours or longer) must be specified in the aeronautical information message and the advertised services maintained during those hours. The extent and types of service will be dependent upon operational requirements, personnel, and equipment capabilities. The schedule of radar service implementation must be jointly determined by the facility air traffic manager and the Service Area office. Service Area office approval is required prior to the implementation of each phase of radar service.
3. A review of the existing LOA must be accomplished to ensure that necessary changes are made or that new agreements are consummated and approved prior to implementing any phase of radar traffic control. Airspace areas for which radar terminal facilities have responsibility should include sufficient vector areas for:
(a) Positioning and spacing of arriving aircraft en route to the airport from outer fixes or radar handoff points.
NOTE- Normally, no less than two nor more than four outer fixes are used to serve a single approach course. These fixes are normally located to permit simultaneous holding at the same altitude. When only one radar approach control position is used, two outer fixes are optimum. If two radar approach positions are available, four fixes are optimum.
(b) Spacing and control of departing aircraft and aircraft executing missed approaches.
(c) Positioning and spacing transitioning aircraft.
c. Notification Procedures:
1. Issue an aeronautical information message for each location at least 30 days prior to and again immediately following implementation of radar ATC procedures containing the following:
(a) Nature of service; e.g., departure, arrival, en route.
(b) Proposed or effective date.
(c) Specific airspace affected.
(d) Hours of service if less than 24 hours per day.
EXAMPLE- BAKERSFIELD, CALIFORNIA, SURVEILLANCE RADAR EXPECTED TO BE COMMISSIONED ON OR ABOUT JUNE l5, 2004. RADAR AIR TRAFFIC CONTROL SERVICE USING RADAR SEPARATION STANDARDS WILL BE APPLIED AS APPROPRIATE. SERVICE WILL BE PROVIDED DAILY BETWEEN THE HOURS OF 1400-2300Z WITHIN 40-MILE RADIUS OF BAKERSFIELD.
2. When an additional service is to be implemented or a change in programmed areas of application is made, issue an aeronautical information message delineating that new service. Advance notice is desirable. However, it is not mandatory, and the aeronautical information message may be issued concurrently with the inauguration of the extended radar service.
3. When a change in ARSR/ASR equipment is made, issue an aeronautical information message if a modification to existing service will result and/or if a break in service of more than 30 minutes will occur.
4. A copy of each of the memoranda/aeronautical information message sent to System Operations Airspace and Aeronautical Information Management Office for inclusion in the Notices to Airmen publication and/or the Airport/Facility Directory must be addressed to Manager of Publications, Manager of System Safety and Procedures, Manager of Flight Services Administration, and the appropriate Service Area offices.
a. Approved radar systems may be used for:
1. Surveillance of aircraft to assure the effective use of airspace.
2. Vectoring aircraft to provide separation and radar navigation.
3. Vectoring aircraft to final approach.
4. Vectoring IFR aircraft to the airport of intended landing.
5. Monitoring instrument approaches.
6. Providing radar traffic, weather, chaff, and bird activity information.
7. Providing assistance to pilots of aircraft in distress.
b. Approved terminal radar systems may also be used for:
1. Conducting precision or surveillance approaches.
2. Formulation of clearances and control intructions based on runways and movement areas observable on the ASDE.
NOTE- In accordance with FAAO JO 7110.65, Chapter 3, Airport Traffic Control - Terminal, Section 6, Airport Surface Detection Procedures.
NOTE- Not Applicable to STARS.
Facility air traffic managers must ensure that radar controllers perform daily performance checks of the decoder control box as follows:
a. Each controller is responsible for determining on a day-to-day basis if the operation of his/her decoder control box is satisfactory for ATC purposes. Decoder control box performance can be determined by checking all switches, thumbwheel code selectors, and selected channels to ensure that they are functioning properly. The actual operation of each channel should be checked by decoding a known target sequentially on each channel and observing it on both double and single slash. Notify the OMIC/OSIC if a malfunction is observed.
b. OMICs/OSICs must make an entry on FAA Form 7230-4 of any malfunctions and report same to the Technical Operations personnel on duty.
c. At sites equipped with automatic beacon decoders, such as ARTS and the TPX-42, the radar beacon control decoder box need not be checked daily. The requirements of subpara a above must be met as soon as possible after reverting to broadband beacon information.
a. Facility air traffic managers may assign Mode 3/A codes to be monitored in addition to those required by FAAO JO 7110.65, Air Traffic Control, Chapter 5, Section 2, Beacon Systems.
b. A facility directive must be issued establishing facility standards for displaying required transponder replies in all available operational modes.
c. Where desirable, beacon targets may be displaced at a slightly greater range than their respective primary returns. When beacon displacement is elected, issue a facility directive specifying the standard relationship between primary returns and the beacon control slash of secondary returns. The maximum allowable beacon target displacement which may be specified by the facility air traffic manager is 1/4 mile for STARS and 1/2 mile applied in 1/4 mile increments for all other facilities.
a. Minimum target size for terminal radar systems using terminal digital radar or full digital target symbols, except for MEARTS, must not be less than the minimum target size shown in Technical Operations' orders concerning the maintenance of terminal digital radar. The target symbol must be centered on the terminal digital radar/full digital system type target presentation.
NOTE- Target size is fixed in MEARTS regardless of range or data block character size.
b. When operating in FUSION, the minimum target size for Precision Approach Monitor (PAM) operations and for the normal use of tower radar displays is 1,200 feet. The target symbol must be centered on the terminal digital radar/full digital system type target presentation.
NOTE- Increased separation required (ISR) will be required for aircraft outside the range for PAM or other normal use of certified tower radar displays.
a. The following system settings for the terminal digital radar/DVCP must be established in a facility directive.
1. Normal weather setting positions when 2-level weather is selected on the system control panel.
2. MEARTS normal weather setting positions when 3-level weather is selected on the system control panel.
3. Normal weather setting positions when 6-level weather is selected on the system control panel.
4. Name, range/azimuth, altitude, and coordinates of prominent obstructions.
5. Azimuth and range settings of moving target indicator (MTI) reflectors used for map alignment.
6. Permanent beacon target (Parrot) used for map alignment location.
b. The following display settings must be established in a facility directive, except for MEARTS:
1. Weather/Radar Gate normal setting.
2. Position startup weather level settings.
c. The air traffic manager and Technical Operations SMO manager must prepare a local order defining the procedures needed to protect the antenna, shutdown the antenna, transfer power between high and low voltage, and transfer from one channel to another channel.
a. Air traffic managers at radar facilities must determine whether or not a clear operational benefit will result by establishing prearranged coordination procedures (P-ACP). Such procedures would allow aircraft under one controller's jurisdiction to penetrate or transit another controller's airspace in a manner that assures standard separation without individual coordination for each aircraft. When reviewing existing P-ACPs, or contemplating the establishment of these procedures, consideration must be given to airspace realignment to preclude coordination/penetration of another operational position's airspace. Prior to implementing a P-ACP, negotiations should be accomplished locally and all affected personnel must be thoroughly trained in the application of the procedures.
b. When P-ACPs are established, a facility directive must be published. The directive must include, as a minimum:
1. Requirement that the NAS Stage A (en route) or ATTS (terminal) systems are fully operational.
2. Procedures to be applied in the event that prearranged coordination procedures are not practicable.
3. The position(s) authorized to penetrate the protected airspace of an adjacent position.
4. Detailed responsibilities relating to P-ACP for each position.
5. The requirement that two positions of operation cannot be authorized to penetrate each other's airspace simultaneously.
6. Controllers who penetrate another controller's airspace using P-ACP must display data block information of that controller's aircraft which must contain, at a minimum, the position symbol and altitude information.
7. Controllers who penetrate another controller's airspace using P-ACP must determine whether the lead aircraft is a heavy or B757 when separating aircraft operating directly behind, or directly behind and less than 1,000 feet.
8. Procedures to be applied for those modes of operation when the computer fails or is shut down, the beacon fails and only primary is available, and for nonbeacon aircraft or at automated facilities aircraft without an associated full data block.
REFERENCE- FAAO JO 7110.65, Para 5-4-10, Prearranged Coordination.

Cartoons of the day: Smallpox, anthrax and the CDC
Posted By Cohen Peart On July 18, 2014 @ 4:06 pm In Cartoons | 1 Comment
Earlier this month, a government scientist discovered six vials of smallpox [1] at a research center near Washington, D.C. The vials were sent to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in Atlanta. Also this month, an investigation found that the CDC had previously stored deadly anthrax [2] in unlocked refrigerators and transported dangerous materials in Ziploc bags. Editorial cartoonist Joe Heller wonders how secure the vials of smallpox are now, while Mike Luckovich questions the CDC's filing system.

U.S. Warns of stronger Al-Qaeda
U.S. Warns Of Stronger Al-Qaeda Administration Report Cites Havens in Pakistan By Spencer S. Hsu and Walter Pincus Washington Post Staff Writers Thursday, July 12, 2007; Page A01 Six years after the Bush administration declared war on al-Qaeda, the terrorist network is gaining strength and has established a safe haven in remote tribal areas of western Pakistan for training and planning attacks, according to a new Bush administration intelligence report to be discussed today at a White House meeting. The report, a five-page threat assessment compiled by the National Counterterrorism Center, is titled "Al-Qaida Better Positioned to Strike the West," intelligence officials said. It concludes that the group has significantly rebuilt itself despite concerted U.S. attempts to smash the network. Although the officials declined to discuss the assessment's content because it is classified, the CIA's deputy director for intelligence, John A. Kringen, told a House committee yesterday that al-Qaeda appears "to be fairly well settled into the safe haven in the ungoverned spaces of Pakistan." "We see more training. We see more money. We see more communications," Kringen said. U.S. counterterrorism officials said that the implications for U.S. domestic security are not immediately clear, despite a warning Tuesday by Homeland Security Secretary Michael Chertoff that reports of heightened al-Qaeda activity and public threats gave him a "gut feeling" that the country faces an increased chance of a terrorist attack this summer. Chertoff clarified those remarks in a telephone interview yesterday, saying that what he meant to convey was "a more general, strategic sense of the threat environment," based on publicly reported information rather than secret intelligence. It "was designed to drive strategic or policy actions, not result in some immediate operational step," Chertoff said of his warning in a Chicago Tribune interview, and "to remind people that the best on the ground asset we have is individuals' vigilance." White House spokesman Tony Fratto declined to sound any alarm yesterday. "There continues to be no credible, specific intelligence to suggest that there is an imminent threat to the homeland," he said in response to questions about Chertoff's remarks. At the same time, authorities worldwide are investigating leads arising out of the failed bombing attempts in London and Glasgow two weeks ago, which British authorities are combing for links to al-Qaeda. Since the attempts, the FBI has assembled a team of agents and analysts to focus on potential summertime threats. The mixed messages underscore the administration's ongoing struggle to communicate timely security warnings at a time of widespread political controversy over its past handling of terrorism-related intelligence matters. " 'Gut feeling' doesn't help any of us," said Kerry Sleeper, homeland security adviser to Vermont Gov. Jim Douglas (R), who has worked for months with federal authorities to improve intelligence sharing as co-chairman of a National Governors Association panel. "A gut feeling is not the way to convey information to hundreds of thousands of first responders across this country that are responsible for identifying, interrupting or responding to a terrorist attack." "Nearly six years into the war on terrorism, you would hope that we would be basing our security decisions on more than somebody's gut feeling," said Georgetown University terrorism expert Bruce Hoffman.(There are 2 pages to this article) |
Re: U.S. Warns of stronger Al-Qaeda
Good post, I voted for Bush. I think 6 years ago most had no idea that this would happen. However. Six years ago I was afraid we'd be frequently attacked on our soil. Thankfully we haven't. For that I am thankful. Not to say that won't change. However. I am obviously concerned that we have put an incredible amount of time, money...& especially 3,500 lives + many injuries into this war with little to show. I also, am starting to get concerned & hope we can actually find a solution. When you are dealing with muslim jihadists, it's not always easy.
Re: U.S. Warns of stronger Al-Qaeda
That's for sure.
Re: U.S. Warns of stronger Al-Qaeda
I was hardly in the middle east, but I found while visiting many European countries that America is totally destroying its foreign relations on this campaign. I encountered PHYSICAL confrontations solely because I was an American. It made me sick, but It made me scared. Not for my own safety (I can hold my own against a 5'5" Italian on too much wine), but for the future of our own homeland security. The pot is boiling. The water is rising and I can't even fathom life after it spills... There is no easy way out of this war. The situation is absolutely out of control and is only looking to get more serious. I don't even know what a good plan is at this point... Something needs to happen, though. I just hope it doesn't spiral into complete chaos while our government sits on their hands... |

Re: U.S. Warns of stronger Al-Qaeda
Not to worry - President Bush assured us today at his press conference that steady progress continues to be made.
For a alternative viewpoint, you might want to read another story (excerpts and link below) that ran on the front page of The Washington Post today. CIA Said Instability Seemed 'Irreversible' By Bob Woodward Washington Post Staff Writer Thursday, July 12, 2007; Page A01 Early on the morning of Nov. 13, 2006, members of the bipartisan Iraq Study Group gathered around a dark wooden conference table in the windowless Roosevelt Room of the White House. For more than an hour, they listened to President Bush give what one panel member called a "Churchillian" vision of "victory" in Iraq and defend the country's prime minister, Nouri al-Maliki. "A constitutional order is emerging," he said. Later that morning, around the same conference table, CIA Director Michael V. Hayden painted a starkly different picture for members of the study group. Hayden said "the inability of the government to govern seems irreversible," adding that he could not "point to any milestone or checkpoint where we can turn this thing around," according to written records of his briefing and the recollections of six participants. "The government is unable to govern," Hayden concluded. "We have spent a lot of energy and treasure creating a government that is balanced, and it cannot function." Later in the interview, he qualified the statement somewhat: "A government that can govern, sustain and defend itself is not achievable," he said, "in the short term." http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn...l?hpid=topnews |
Re: U.S. Warns of stronger Al-Qaeda
the ONLY way there will ever be a peaceful iraq is if the "PEACE seeking citizens" of iraq decide to take there collective heads out of the sand and start working with authorities to root out the war mongering extremist. i mean if someone starts launching mortars on my street, odds are i'm gonna know about it. if i'm not in support of the violence, you bet your ass i'm gonna do what i can to help the proper authorities find the perps. if they fear reprisal, an anonomous phone call or letter would do the trick.

I don't think it's a scare tactic at all. It's to keep people aware of what is going on.

Critics Consensus: Similar to the original in all the right ways -- but with enough changes to stand on its own -- Let Me In is the rare Hollywood remake that doesn't add insult to inspiration.

All Critics (219) | Top Critics (39) | Fresh (193) | Rotten (26) | DVD (15)
Matt Reeves has succeeded in presenting the story in a thoughtful, respectful manner, while still Americanizing the Swedish text.
Let Me In doesn't need to exist unless, that is, the very notion of Swedish cinema is strange and unpalatable to you.
This is a story about two isolated kids making friends in a cold world. Those drops of blood in the snow could have come from anywhere.
The film is this year's best horror due to Smit-McPhee and Moretz displaying a vulnerability and a skill in characterization that belies their tender ages.
As far as remakes go, this is a pretty good one.
Let Me In has a muddled storyline that never quite finds its focus. Every element here is just not as good as it was in the original, making this another pointless remake.
Let Me In is one of the few horror films that will trouble you long after the credits roll.
This version follows the plot and dialogue of its Swedish predecessor, capturing a tender (often blood-splattered) young relationship. But Reeves has upped the suspense and gore, creating a more Hollywood-friendly horror thriller.
Reeves' fresh vision and utterly compelling storytelling more than justify the making of this American iteration that could very well make a surprise appearance on year-end lists the way its predecessor did.
With its mix of true-blood romance and full-moon madness, Let Me In should hasten the twilight of the twerpy pretenders.
Reeves, for the most part, delivers a film that's every bit as compelling as Alfredson's original.
Let Me In is a brilliantly effective horror film that is a thoroughly gripping and doesn't shirk from its supernatural chills.
The result, though no less creepy than the Swedish film, mislays its lyricism and otherworldliness.
This is one of the best films of its kind in the recent years. It's not better than the original, but that's not what Matt Reeves set out to do - the man wanted to make a solid film and he did just that.
In playing up the bullying, Reeves has Americanized a very good Swedish film without de-fanging it.
Vale la pena verla, por supuesto, pero mi mejor recomendaci�n ser�a ver (antes o despu�s) la versi�n sueca. Puede ser incluso un interesante ejercicio de comparaci�n...
It doesn't have the emotional depth or resonance of the original, but it's a sutiable genre entry.
It's winter in Reagan's America...but wasn't it always?
There was no good reason for this movie to exist beyond a lazy American disinterest in subtitles. But having said that, it's pretty great on its own.
Let Me In is slow and thoughtful and its most chilling aspects require consideration after the fact by the viewer rather than simple thrills that wash over you viscerally and are just quickly gone.
Audience Reviews for Let Me In
A vampire romance movie that is actually a real vampire movie. Solid in every form. One of the few times I have watched a remake of a foreign film and have to say they did a quality job. An all around quality flick.
MoreSuper Reviewer
Being a Hollywood remake of an independent foreign film, Let Me In is more mainstream than the original, but has enough similarities with the original to maintain the high quality present in the original. Acting wise, this film is at least on par or even a little better than the original, but the minor changes to the story take a little bit of the bite the original had out of the equation. Visually, this film is superior to the original thanks to a bigger budget. The special effects are better (a horrible cat scene from the original sticks out like a sore thumb as much better in this film) and the gore is more realistic. Other than that, they are basically the same. I really liked both versions of the film and both have elements that are better done in each version, but I would give just a very slight edge to the original for not taking out the main context of the story and sticking to its guns. Both versions are very much worth watching and some of the better horror movies of the past decade.
MoreSuper Reviewer
I usually don't like remakes. For obvious reasons, specially the American ones. Just to take an example, get a very nice film like Mostly Martha and turn it into the stupid No Reservations. And I just heard that there's a remake to Godard's Breathless with none other than Richard Gere! What's wrong with you guys? If a great film, worldly acclaimed, is not yours, you want to ruin it? Nah. Unfortunately, you think you're doing a really good job. Some foreign films have an economic potential if converted to the "American taste" what, let me explain, is not exclusively to Americans. This below average taste has been spread all over the world mostly because of your powerful film industry, so this is not a critic to a country, but to a "way of life" - let's put it that way - that can be found anywhere. Having said that, let's move to Let Me In.
Having seen L�t den r�tte komma and read John Ajvide Lindqvist's novel, I can nothing but laugh out loud - or should I say "cry"? - after seeing Matt Reeves' remake. He not only managed to ruin the original film but the book as well. First of all, the kids. They're too much nice, too much cute, too much trained, too much not convincing (me). If we're going to shoot a remake, let's make sure to change a few things, right? Instead of a blond boy and a brunette girl, let's choose a dark-haired boy and a dark blonde girl and voil�! Now we can copy some scenes, frame to frame, add a little bit of crap to it, and we have a "great" and different film. Anyhow, it'd be better if the differences have remained restricted to the cast. I feel sorry for saying it, but even the bullying is worse here. Americans and their vision of right and wrong had, of course, to justify why that boy has such a nasty behavior: he calls Owen "little girl" and treats him the way he does because his older brother does the same to him. Oh poor little kid!
Still into this good versus evil vision, we have Owen's mom and Abby's "dad", who only looks like H�kan. Of course the pedophile (not suggested in the film) can't be somehow "nice", so he will not only call little Abby fucking bitch and yells at her, as he seems to be the "boss" in all situations. Why does he douse his face with acid? Because that's what H�kan does in Let the Right One In. For not even one second you believe he would do that to protect Abby what, by the way, is not even explained. Now, Owen's mom. It's unbelievable, but true: she is a freaking religious and that must explain everything, right? Divorced parents, fanatic mom, weird boy. And where this comes from? Reeves took this religion thing of the book, but changed it for worst. In the novel, Oskar has a sort of friend, Tommy, an older boy who lives in his building. Tommy's mom is dating the religious police officer, Staffan, that investigates the deaths. What Reeves did was take Lacke and the other drunks off the scene and put Staffan in. Those scenes in the hospital are really in the book, but he is not killed. Talking about scenes and killing, if you watched Let The Right One In you remember that there were two girls with a dog that find the first H�kan's victim, right? Well, to not let such an important thing out, Reeves makes Ginia - the woman that will be attacked by Abby - a "posh girl" walking with her dog. Oh, and I was almost forgetting the worst thing about this film: when thirsty for blood, Abby becomes a mix of Marilyn Manson and the girl from The Exorcist, what it's said to be the great difference between the two films, making Reeve's film more suitable for the terror genre and less romantic than Tomas Alfredson's. Have these critics seem the same film I did? Because Let Me In is much more romantic in a silly way.
First of all, Abby and Owen's relationship develops very fast, specially due to the fact that eight minutes are lost in that useless and typical beginning scene. Also, they're really good kids, no matter if Abby kills people and Owen spies his female neighbour about to have sex. Owen is so nice that, in a normal and innocent idea of sex as sin or 'love in this side, sex in the other', he stops spying Abby when she's changing clothes. Of course that this scene happens mostly because people wouldn't understand the similar scene of Let The Right One In, another reason why Abby says that she's not a girl, she's nothing. If she had only said she is not a girl, people would understand exactly the same as we did in Let The Right One In, where the homosexuality is not clear: she's not a girl, she's a vampire. Not necessary to say much more. Not everything has to be said or shown. I would prefer to wonder what they "talked" in the end than to know that the "trains starts to move".
Other few points: I think the cold light of Let The Right One In works much better than the "warm" yellow one of Let Me In, but yes, I understand that New Mexico is not Stockholm. The music that is an important thing in the Swedish film completely loses its sense in this one. When we meet someone and feel connected, don't we want to show the person a film we like, a song we love? That's what Oskar does, when he put that amazing song to play in vinyl and tries to look cool in front of Eli. The song, "Kvar i min bil", played by Per Gessle, says something like "All of my heart crushed like glass, trashed when you said 'you've got to leave'. Where should I run? What will I come to?" perfectly fits Oskar.
Let The Right One In is one of the few cases where the film is better than the book, a sort of cheesy horror flick. Let Me In is one of several cases where a remake is worse than the original film and the book.
Super Reviewer
Although there's not enough to justify the existence of Let Me In it makes enough changes that constitute it as an independently spirited film rather than a rip off of Let The Right One In or even as it's companion piece. It's an enthralling, tragic tale of love, revenge and hate with an eerily strange tone, that although isn't that scary is reasonably intense. The plot is so offbeat, many are saying that it's absolutely terrifying, there are some jumps but it doesn't work as a horror movie as it does an emotionally floating drama. Technically well designed, powerfully acted and crafted with respect, the unnecessary American remake of the swedish "Let The Right One In" is the rare one that works just as well, if not better, than the original.

Involvement:General (knows how to use it) - Ownership:1 week to 1 month
Pros:I've actually seen these in the shops selling for more than $20.00 for the same product. Buying from DX saved me a lot of money staright off the bat. The walkies look cute with the toy story characters on them, and are light enough for the kids to hold.
Cons:The quailty of the antenna and signal is terrible. the kids can only be in a direct line of sight for them to work and at most 20 meters away which is still close enough to hear them anyway. Would have been better if they were tuned properly or fitted with a higher gain antenna
Bottomline:Really if you want a walkie talkie for the kids that you don't care if they bust, this is it. But if you want a walkie talkie they can actually use, you may have to spend a bit more.

Breakfast was average good, they also have free hot chocolate, coffee, and tea, which was nice. I have no doubt that the facilities were clean, the only thing I would reccomend is that they work on being more organized, and looking a little cleaner (corners, windowsils,etc) better attention to detail would really help with presentation.
