Interview: Kick-Ass Screenwriter & Director Matthew Vaughn
by Alex Billington
April 16, 2010
Earlier this week I finally got the chance to interview a director that I've been waiting years and years to talk with - Matthew Vaughn. Not only did he previously direct Layer Cake and Stardust, but he's the brilliant British filmmaker who decided to adapt Kick-Ass into the badass R-rated independent comic book movie that it is. If you remember, Vaughn financed the movie on his own and helped pen the script with his writing partner Jane Goldman and creator Mark Millar. Not only did we talk plenty about Kick-Ass, but Vaughn and I also talked about comic book movies, his thoughts on 3D, how great the films in the 70's were, and more.
I've been waiting to talk with Vaughn because I think he's one of the best filmmakers out there who's staying out of the Hollywood system yet making great movies exactly the way they should. Beyond that, I absolutely loved Kick-Ass, it's one of my favorites of this year, and I wanted to talk with the man behind that awesome movie. I've said enough, so read on for my interview and be sure to go see Kick-Ass in theaters this weekend!
When you initially read the comic and picked it up, did you think that it would make a great movie from the start, even though it had an extreme amount of violence, and a 12-year-old girl killing people, all of those controversial elements?
Matthew Vaughn: Yeah, basically that's why I wanted to make the movie -- everything that made it different and fresh. I was like, "God, it's about time there's a superhero film like Kick-Ass," literally, and I knew I could make a film that I'd want to go see, and I wanted to make a comic book movie that was more relevant to the world we live in.
We've heard the stories about Hollywood studios immediately rejecting the idea when you first brought this to them. So is it great to be at a point where there's so much buzz now and your film is, I think, about to open big this weekend? It seems like you've come a long way.
Vaughn: You're right. I mean, you know what it is? Is it a good feeling? Yes. Is it very tempting to go, "Ha-, told you so," and be a dick about it? Yes. But I'm trying not to, and I'm relieved, because I didn't realize -- I mean, I knew I was taking a risk, but I remember Mark Millar pointed it out to me, saying, "You realize the people who have said no to this film are the people you're going to have to try to sell it to again when it's finished? What makes you think they're going to say yes?" And I was suddenly like, "God, you're right." But I already started shooting it when he told me that. I had such belief in the film, and I felt passionate about it, and I just thought: That's what wrong with the film industry, there's not enough people doing what they think is right and loving what they do. I mean, I love making movies, and I'm the luckiest man alive to have a job which feels like a dream come true.
Do you think that the freedom you have to make a movie this way, with your own financing, is a truly gratifying experience for you as the director, or is it potentially problematic when you lose control?
Vaughn: Lose control if the studio financed it, you mean?
No, I mean from your standpoint, in terms of just going overboard. I mean, do you think that working on your own independent financing is the absolute best way to make a movie these days?
Vaughn: I think if you're a director who's got a proper vision, that you're not some moron that will just run off amok… I think in the '70s -- it's one of my favorite periods of filmmaking, the '70s. Not to sound arrogant, but filmmaking is a director's medium, number one, and I think that the director is being minimalized more and more and more as the industry is growing and growing and growing. And I think if you're a good director, you should have a good producer keeping you in line, but a director should have the freedom to make the movie. Especially if you're a writer-director. If you've written a script, then you've written the outline to what the film is and what it's going to be, and therefore there shouldn't be any issues.
I've actually heard from a lot of other directors that they love the '70s as well, so you're certainly not alone.
Vaughn: Well, it was. There were great movies made then. I think the '70s is where the directors really let loose. And early '80s.
Do you ever think there's a chance that we'd get back to that kind of timeframe where the directors had--
Vaughn: I think it's happening as we speak.
Vaughn: Yes. I think suddenly the audiences are crying out, for example with District 9, they're crying out for original films. And also the studios now are trying to figure out how to make films cheaper. The best way of making films cheaper is get a director who knows what they're doing.
Vaughn: Most of these big Hollywood movies, they're throwing money rescuing the piece of shit that some moronic guy who doesn't know -- some director who doesn't know his ass from elbow, and hands in a cut and they just go, "What the fuck is this?"
I think the worst trend nowadays is the 3D trend, and just pushing everything they can to 3D. What are your opinions on 3D? Would you ever consider it?
Vaughn: Oh, 3D. I couldn't give a shit about 3D until I saw Avatar, and then I was like, "Ohhhh okay, this is different." And it's more than 3D. I think 3D is the wrong term for -- Avatar is not 3D. Avatar is something else. For me, 3D is a piece of shit, like the Clash of the Titans sort of 3D, in post-production. That's not 3D. That's 3D like Jaws 3 3D. You're not seeing anything new or special. And with Avatar, you definitely did. But Cameron shot it in a way that, I mean, it was mind-boggling. And it's sort of intimidating. I've only just figured out how to fucking handle a 2D camera, let alone a 3D one. And so I do think the Cameron blueprint is the wave of the future. But the whole of idea of post-production-wise, making things into 3D that weren't shot for being 3D, I think is a total insult to the audience.
I agree. One of the parts I really loved about Kick-Ass was the incredible cast you pulled together. We obviously have Nic Cage, a recognizable name, but at least two newcomers with Aaron Johnson and Chloe Moretz, and then Mark Strong, and Christopher Mintz-Plasse. It's just one of the best casts I've seen to come together that's well-rounded, a perfect ensemble, a perfect mix of big names and newcomers. I'm impressed and amazed that you could get a cast together like this and it worked so well in the end.
Vaughn: Well, we didn't have anyone getting in the way, is why. I could cast -- the problem is, if you're doing it in Hollywood, they say like, "You know what? We really, really want… some actor that's not right for the role but is a movie star," and then they don't understand why the film doesn't really work. You go, "Well, because it was miscast! It's starring Mr. X, but Mr. X should never have done a film like this, and if he wasn't a movie star, we wouldn't have cast him." So the beauty about this movie, is all I did was cast people who were right for the role.
Does Nic Cage fall into that category? Not that I don't think he's right.
Vaughn: Oh, a hundred percent. A hundred percent. Because I only wanted people who also understood what we were trying to do. Most of the people in this movie love comic books and comic book movies, and when they read the script, they got it. And we sent Cage the script and asked, "What do you think?" And he's like, "I get it. I want to play Daddy." And he brought -- the whole Adam West thing, that was his idea! No other actor would have come up with that, I don't think.
That's what I mean about this cast just being perfect, what everyone brought to each individual role. I mean, Mark Strong -- it's funny seeing him play an American gangster, when he's often playing British villains.
Vaughn: Yeah, well. That was the plan. But yeah, I'm glad you picked up on it.
How involved was Mark Millar from the start? I know he helped with the story, but I'm just wondering how integral he's been in the production?
Vaughn: Well, he came up with the original concept. So I've always said this -- I always find it weird where somebody writes a book or writes a first draft of a script, and they get frozen out. So whenever I wasn't sure about something, I wanted to make sure I wasn't screwing up the integrity of what the original idea was, which is why he was there.
Right. I love the comics as well, but I'm glad that there's a little bit of a disconnect between the story in the comic and the movie. And I heard that you wanted to specifically write a different story so that the movie was its own original idea.
Vaughn: No, just… I didn't want to change anything unless I felt -- my goal is how to make the absolutely best film possible, and a movie that works as a movie, for people who have never seen the comic, and gives you the highs and lows of what I think a film should do. So there were certain things I changed, but I never changed anything without talking to Mark about it. I said, "Look, Mark, I'm changing it for the following reasons. What do you think?" And he's like, "Yeah, great."
Good. Simple as that, I guess.
Vaughn: Pretty simple. That's the thing people forget. It's like, if you keep it simple, then things turn out pretty good. Simple, good ideas are much better than complicated, bad ones.
Oh I agree with you there. Do you think this is the perfect time for this movie to be hitting in terms of its relation to the comic book movie world, and the development and evolution of the comic book movie genre recently?
Vaughn: Well, for me, yeah, but I'm a comic book movie fan. So I mean, for the public, I've got no idea. I obviously -- I mean, I made the damn thing, so I obviously I would feel that way. As a director, you have to do what you believe in, and that's what I've done. So hopefully the public will watch it and agree with me. They can go watch it. They might not even go watch it, but we'll see. I mean, I have no idea how we're going to do this weekend.
I just think it's a great movie that sort of comments on the current state of comic book movies. And I love that it's R-rated, and I love that you push it to those extremes that we don't see often with comic book movies these days.
Vaughn: Yeah. Well, as I said, that's why I wanted to do it, because I just get bored of seeing the same thing. I mean, I'm really, really -- I'm really looking forward seeing Iron Man 2, but I'm also a little bit nervous because I loved Iron Man 1 -- absolutely loved it. But I have no idea what to expect. I mean, the trailer's awesome and stuff, but I do think -- hopefully Iron Man 2 will be like Spider-Man 2 was -- a good film. And then whether they can do an Iron Man 3 better than Spider-Man 3, will be the question.
I just want to ask, with The Avengers coming up, and we just heard a couple of days ago that Joss Whedon is directing it. But were you ever offered--
Vaughn: And I'm extremely jealous.
Well, were you ever offered it, and would you have even taken the job?
Vaughn: I wasn't offered it, and heavily considered it. Yeah. Heavily considered it.
But you weren't offered it, you said?
Vaughn: I haven't been offered it, no.
I mean, it seems like a daunting task, and to me, that seems like the future of where comic book movies are headed, if they can pull off an ensemble movie where they bring together these big actors from their individual movies into one big movie.
Vaughn: Well, see, Kick-Ass is an ensemble. For me, all my movies have got loads of big characters all running around doing crazy shit, so that's why I think I would have enjoyed doing something like The Avengers, because I'm a bit of a seasoned pro when it comes to having all kinds of characters and plots.
Yeah, I understand. Do you know what you're doing next?
Vaughn: Haven't got a clue right now.
No problem. I don't really have anything else to ask you at the moment.
Vaughn: Well, keep spreading the word, and tell everyone to get off their asses this week and support independent cinema that's trying to make a difference, and go buy a fucking ticket.
I will make sure to tell everyone! Right now, there is no other movie that I have enjoyed more this year than Kick-Ass, and I will make sure to tell everyone exactly that.
Vaughn: Well, please do!
Thank you to Matthew Vaughn and everyone at Lionsgate for arranging this. Be sure to go see Kick-Ass as soon as you can and support independent cinema, like Vaughn said. You will not be let down, I can guarantee it. Kick-Ass starts playing in theaters everywhere this weekend!

With wedding season here I seem to be doing a lot more Engagement sessions! This awesome couple is getting married in August and we got together last week to do their Engagement pics! It was a beautiful evening and I was able to go to one of my fav spots! We fought some killer mosquitoes for a little while but still had a great time! Congrats guys…can't wait to do your wedding! <3
This lovely couple is getting married later this month and I was excited they added an Engagement Session to their package! It takes soo much stress of the actual wedding day when I already have a relationship with the couple!
We had lots of fun during their session just walking around the streets of Lowville. Besides some killer mosquitoes and a storm that we just barely missed things went off without a hitch! I'm looking forward to their wedding in a few weeks!

I wanted to show some recent newborn photos that I love that I took within the last 6 months!

Family battles for 'ill' Rolf Harris prison move: Fears grow for shamed TV star
ROLF Harris' family want him moved to an open prison amid growing fears for his health.
They want the 86-year-old transferred to a unit nearer their home in Bray, Berks, so his wife Alwen can visit more often.
A source said: "He has been in HMP Stafford, Staffordshire, for quite a while and his family find it very difficult to travel all that way.
"Alwen has multiple problems and needs a lot of support to make that journey.
"His family remain very concerned about him and I gather they asked his legal team to put a dossier together as soon as possible to plead for an urgent move."
Harris, who was jailed for 12 indecent assaults against four female victims as young as eight, is said to be "struggling to cope and often gets depressed and disillusioned."
He is said to have health conditions including diabetes and was hospitalised last year after a binge on sweets and fizzy drinks.
The entertainer is facing a January trial for seven further indecent assault charges against female victims as young as 12, allegations he has already denied.
Our source added: "The thought of another long trial is proving a major factor and it seems that some of his medical conditions have deteriorated.
"Rolf finds it difficult to cope at times with all the stress"Source
"The wing is full of old sex offenders and Rolf finds it difficult to cope at times with all the stress.
"I think his legal team raised some medical issues at the last hearing about him travelling and he says they are putting together a package listing all his medical problems and necessary treatments.
"He would love to move back south.
"He knows he will be moved to a major London prison for his new trial but hopes he can go to an open prison now, and be returned there later whatever the outcome."
HMP Stafford was described as "good" by government inspectors when they visited this year.
Their report hailed its progress from a previous check and praised the "decent" treatment of prisoners by staff, "impressively clean" facilities and low levels of bullying among the inmates.

The Polish Christmas Carol: God's Time Overturns Ours
by Rev. Czeslaw M. Krysa, SLDRector, St. Casimir Church,
Buffalo, N.Y.
Caroling — heard in Poland until Candlemas — reminds us how God's perfection was born into an imperfect world.
Editor's note: Written from amidst the horrors of the war, the lyrics of Kolęda Warszawska 1939 / The 1939 Warsaw Carol — initially released
anonymously —were penned as a poem by Stanisław Baliński. They were discovered on the pages of an underground magazine published in Warsaw shortly after the September 1939 Nazi invasion and
occupation of all of Poland.
The Polish singers Sława Przybylska and Justyna Szafran are but two popular artists who have recorded musical versions of the poem. In 2015, Polish vocalist
Margaret (nee Małgorzata Jamroży), with help from composer Zbigniew Preisner (best known for the music composed for films directed by fellow Pole Krzysztof Kieślowski) and director Anna
Powierża, re-recorded a video version of the song:
In December 1939, Stanisław Baliński could not imagine that three months prior, Hitler already decided to
not just invade and conquer Poland, but to obliterate the nation, her history, and very identity from the face of the earth. Eleven September days of the Polish army's unexpected, stiff opposition, and
that of her own people, deflated his ambitions. This was all too much for the Führer. After taking some sinister joy in razing Warsaw, building-by-building, the capital was to be totally replaced by a monument
to the ideals of the super-Arian-race, a cutting-edge Nazi town, without Polish name, memory or a slightest reference.
The 1939 Warsaw Carol
Oh Mother, put off the day of this Birth to another time.Don't let Creation's eyes seehow they oppress us.
Let heaven's dearest Son be bornAmong other stars.But not here, not in the saddestof all cities of earth.
Because in our city which you rememberFrom days long ago.Crosses have risen, crosses, a graveyardall fresh with blood
Because our children shot thru with shrapnelHave lost their last breath.Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for usBut don't come
If you still want to,give birth to him in the shadowsand these ruins of war.Then right after he's bornthrow Him on the
In this bleak setting Baliński wrote the Kolęda Warszawska 1939 or The 1939 Warsaw Carol.
Kolęda Warszawska 1939 reveals to me a mystery of Polish Christmas. Polish-authored carols and ancient family rituals do not expect a "winter
wonderland" or Currier & Ives landscape, or the "most wonderful time of the year." Jesus is born, he comes to the Polish home no matter what. We cannot push his arrival to when most of us
are available, re-schedule it for a more convenient time, or find a day which fits us better. Jesus comes, he is born each year, and every year — ready-or-not — when the first star appears on
December 24. All we need to do is welcome him into our situation, whatever that may be. Our beloved kolędy (carols), different from others, proclaim just this.
The stirring scene of a private reporting to his commanding officer in the movie Katyń, proves it. The youngest soldier on guard salutes the senior Polish
officer, all imprisoned with 24,000 others in Soviet camps, reporting, "The star has appeared." Without a moment's hesitation and with military precision, the officer intones, "God is
born!" (Bóg się rodzi). God is the first word of Christmas, who works not on our time, according to our wishes, but on Gospel priorities.
This majestic, regal, social justice, polonaise carol, says it all. Polish Christmas time starts with God — not with sales, sleighs, city sidewalks, jingling
bells, shoppers or roasting chestnuts. Carols proclaim the whole reason for the season as God's arrival: Gdy się Chrystus rodzi / To the Earth; W dzień Bożego narodzenia / On this day; W
Żłobie Leży / In the Manger, to mention a few. Even the Polish word for Christmas (Boże Narodzenie) means "God's birthing."
Not only traveling, family, or church Nativity scenes, but most especially the Polish carol, draws one into a conversation with the celestial guest. Songs go
beyond talking about or just reporting information. We sing to take on the voices and examples of welcome of those who were ready or needed to be wakened. We take on a Mother's soft, discerning voice in
Lulajże Jezuniu / Slumber on; that of the angels in Wśród nocnej / In Midnight Silence; the robust voices and emotions of shepherds proclaiming "a great joy" in welcoming the Savior:
"Zawołali z wielkiej radości: Ach witaj zbawco!"
Other carols directly address the Child: Podnieś ręke! / Raise your hand [in blessing], while St. Joseph sings, joined by the ox (bass) and the donkey
(tenor). Polish Christmas is not a third-person bedtime story. It's a lively "you-and-I" discourse, similar to an Italian opera. The "true opera (or "work"), however, is
It is an intimate here-and-now, asserted in the well-known Dzisiaj w Betlejem / [Today] In David's City. This musical mazurek reveals the Infant birth as
restorative; a present-tense whirlwind, likened to the vitality twirled on the world's stages in a kaleidoscope of colors by Poland's national, orchestral, dance ensembles.
This is by no means a nostalgic passage into some magical, lost, cinematic quest. The Polish carol sings of a miracle transforming our today, because God arrived,
and our world — screeching to a stop — offers proverbial hospitality: "A guest in the home is God at home." Oj, Maluśki / O, Tiny One pictures a toddler raising a litany of infantile
questions to the Christ-Child: "Why would you come to this 'shoddy' place when you had it so good up there?" The child continues: "Did your father throw you out?" and, in
summation, tells the Infant, "Well, if it has to be like this, come over to my house …"
Unprecedented Christmas encounters unfold on the shores of the Wisła river: God is born right here. Bethlehem happens in every church, at every Mass.
Worshippers welcome and worship like the shepherds. They, however, are fed from the Manger with His Body, their thirst quenched with His Blood (Ach, Witajże! / Oh, Welcome). Nothing more exquisitely extolls
Nativity intimacy than the many Mary lullaby meditations on human discomfort mixed with joy, as his Mother's sweet words: "O siano, siano" ("Oh, hay of the meadow") in Śliczna
Panienka / Fairest of Maidens. When sung around Christmas Eve's table, set with a layer of hay under the white cloth of Mary's veil, God's birth could not be more immediate, more personal.
To remind us of our imperfections and moments of confusion (unheard of in popular carols), one Polish carol presents arguing birds, another a dispute among
shepherds, and words with their leaders, too. After all, "I've never seen anything like this!" cries one shepherd. W dzień Bożego narodzenia / On this Day; Bracia patrzcie jeno /
Shepherds! See the Glory!, and Północ już było / At the Midnight Hour are just few. These carols depict Christmas more as a divine/human sit-com, than an idyllic little town, on a snowy night.
God's Nativity calls for a global housewarming in Nużmy Bracia pastuszkowie / Hey, Brother Shepherds. Dedicating a verse to each European nation with its particular cultural quirks, this carol also
pulls in representatives of each region of Poland. God's birth mixes local dialects and personalities with polyglots in a divine-human episode: Ach, ach mein Kinder, Bą żur o bą Dju (read in
French Bon jour o bon Dieu), and Wiotalis Kieptas!
Christmas' diversity fest is wondrously contemplated as a duel of innocuous earthly energies verses heavenly epiphanies in Bóg się rodzi. God reverses
the usual as radiance dims, the night glows, and meekness dethrones power with a new-born naked monarch. Poland's greatest poetic and musical composition blends professorial wise men with herder simpletons
— something only God could pull off. This George Washington-era carol, expresses the equality legislated in Poland's Third of May Constitution, as does the empty place setting at Wigilia.
As the above rock-star sang the hit "Warsaw 1939 Carol," she penned a personal note to her Christmas music-video: "I want to remind people that
Christmas is not always full of joy, not always peaceful."
Wishing you a Happy New Year, a joyous caroling season, Wesołej Kolędy! — on God's time — until February 2.
English versions of cited carols are from Fr. Krysa's Polish American Heritage Hymns, Buffalo, N.Y.: St. Casimir Church, 2015.

The original access charge is P0.35 per text. Access charge is the paid by a carrier for every SMS that passes through another carrier's network. With the lower access charge, this means there will be lower SMS charges for consumers, currently pegged at P1 per text. The P0.20 reduction in access charge translates to a P0.20 reduction in regular SMS fees for consumers, according to the NTC. The SMS retail price includes the cost of the network sending the SMS plus cost of the network receiving the text plus the cost of the interconnection facilities. According to the NTC memorandum circular 02-10-2011, which prescribes the maximum interconnection charge for SMS, the new fees should be imposed not later than 20 days from the circular's effectivity. The circular took effect last November 10. Lower voice call charges? Meanwhile, the NTC is also mulling a reduction in interconnection charges for cellular voice at a maximum of P2 per minute during the first year; and not more than P1.50 on the second year; and a maximum of P1 on year 3 onwards. Telcos currently charges another carrier P4 per minute on interconnection for voice calls. If the proposal is approved, voice call rates can be reduced between P3-P4 minute on the first year; P2 per minute on the following year; and P1 per minute on the third year onwards. Currently, a minute of cellular voice call rate is pegged at P6.50. Mobile phone interconnection rates were last adjusted in 2003. The NTC said interconnection rates to mobile service operators in the Philippines is still one of the highest in Asia.

Love all things oatmeal? You've come to the right place! In this Vegan Oatmeal Roundup you'll get a big list of delicious oatmeal recipes to start your day!
Over the years I've created lots of oatmeal recipes for my coaching clients that have gotten buried in my files. This Vegan Oatmeal Roundup post is a way to house them all in one place and hopefully become an awesome resource for your oatmeal breakfast needs. Muwah!
Benefits of oatmeal
Some people might say oatmeal is old news. I'm not going for trendy here – I'm going for tried and true traditional. There are so many benefits of oatmeal, we shouldn't toss it aside since it's not in fashion right now.
Oatmeal has been proven to lower cholesterol and be a source of slow burning carbohydrates that will help regulate blood sugar and keep you fuller longer.
Types of oatmeal
The very best type of oats to eat are oat groats, they're the least processed, slowest cooking form.
Next up, steel cut oats. Again, a less processed version and slower cooking – yet still delicious.
Rolled oats – most versatile. Tasty and easy to cook. It can be used for so many recipes – from morning oats to desserts to even filling for burgers when given a quick pulse in the blender.
Instant oats – not recommended for daily consumption because they tend to be more processed and filled with sugar. They'll cause your blood sugar to spike more than the slower burning carbohydrates above.

2. Prepare a small baking dish with EVOO spray and layer the peaches, crystallized ginger, oats, soy milk, spices and vanilla. Cover and bake for 25 minutes.
3. Top with fresh raspberries and coconut palm nectar.
Blueberry-Banana Baked Oatmeal
A classic combo of blueberries and bananas – you can't go wrong with this!
Serves 2
3/4 cup rolled oats
1 cup vanilla unsweetened soy (or other non-dairy) milk
3/4 cup frozen blueberries
1/2 banana chopped
Sea salt, to taste
Cinnamon, to taste
1 tsp vanilla
Extra virgin olive oil spray
Coconut nectar, to taste
1. Preheat your oven to 375 degrees and prep a small baking dish with EVOO spray.
2. Lay your fruit on the bottom of the dish and then spread your oats over the fruit evenly. Pour in your soy milk and sprinkle the salt and cinnamon and pour the vanilla over.

Pumpkin Vanilla Oatmeal
A creamy mixture of yogurt and oatmeal for a belly filling punch of fiber and protein.

2 Tbsp Pumpkin Butter, such as Grandma Hoerner's
1 dash stevia
Sprinkle of cinnamon
1. Layer oats, yogurt, cinnamon, stevia and pumpkin butter.

Banana-Raisin Overnight Oatmeal
This one is great for picky toddlers who don't like the consistency of oatmeal which can be fairly coarse. (The ingredients specified are dairy, gluten, soy and egg free.) My little one eats her portion and then yells "MORE! MORE! MORE!"
2-3 Servings
1/2 cup rolled oats
3/4 cup rice milk
1/2 ripe banana, mashed
handful of golden raisins
1. In a magic bullet or blender, grind the oat to a fine consistency. Mash the banana in a plastic food storage container then add the oats, rice milk and raisins and stir well.

**you may need to add additional rice milk to smooth out the consistency after heating.

2. In a small dish mix the oats through the almond milk and pour on top of the blueberries.
3. Bake in a preheated oven or toaster oven at 400F, uncovered, for 30-35 minutes.
4. Top with dollop of yogurt.

It only happens when you turn the car over, or switch the engine off. I can best describe it as a if something is stuck and is released, like a moan type noise lasting a second at most. Anyone have any ideas what the hell this could be? It hasnt been picked up in any inspection and it was there when I bought the car about a year ago.

No more cuts! Defend the public services!
THE Newquay disaster proves what most people knew to be the case that cuts in the fire service inevitably cost lives.
Newquay is a fair-sized town, which attracts large numbers of tourists to its hotels. Yet the town had no full-time fire service at night, and did not have enough firefighters to man pumps and ladders. A high-level ladder had to be brought from 50 miles away, because Newquays and Truros were under repair.
This was not a fire service at the ready. This was a disaster produced by the governments cuts policy.
There is not the slightest doubt that most of the towns and villages and some of the cities in this country are Newquays just waiting to happen as a result of the campaign over the last ten years to cut, and cut and cut the fire service into ribbons.
Firefighters have been instructed to adopt a new approach and that the accent must be on fire prevention and not dealing with fires, thus creating the need for less firefighters, fire stations, fire engines, and equipment of all kinds.
This mantra led to fire stations being closed, engines being mothballed, and manning levels particularly at night being cut, with retained firefighters playing a much bigger role and full-time firefighters a much lesser one. However full-time firefighters were told that they could double as ambulance crew when it became necessary.
The FBU national terms and conditions of service were rewritten from the point of view of getting a lot more out of much less of a workforce. The end result of all this is Newquay, and more Newquays into the future.
After the Newquay disaster the public will have a much greater understanding of the importance of the struggle of the FBU against all the local authority and government cuts that have been imposed on them.
The FBU, the public sector trade unions and the TUC must all demand that cuts in the fire service be halted at once, and that every area has to be fully manned with the required number of fire engines and all of the necessary equipment, and in particular that there must be full coverage at night by full-time firefighters.
The Newquay disaster is also a warning to the entire pubic sector, especially to the NHS where the privatisation drive and the cuts and closures policies are being pushed forward by the Brown government at breakneck speed. The master plan is to close down 24 of the 32 District General Hospitals in the London area, and do the same job nationally on the same scale.
The fiction is being spread, in the same way that it was in the fire service, that DGHs are out of date, that they can be replaced by polyclinics, and one major regional hospital, so that there are no local, A&E, maternity or other specialised services. Each regional hospital will have a catchment area of up to 1,500,000 people.
People who fall seriously ill or have childbirth complications will have to travel long distances in ambulances, if the polyclinic, with its nurse practitioners and other practitioners, manages to make the correct diagnosis. This is the road to massive medical disasters.
After Newquay the entire public sector must unite in a fighting public sector alliance to tell the government that it must end the regime of cuts, closures and privatisations in the Fire Service, the NHS, the Royal Mail and throughout the whole public sector.
The Brown government is a bankers government and will not listen to the demands of the working class and its trade unions.
This is why the trade unions must be ready to use their power. They must be prepared to call a general strike to bring down the Brown government and bring in a workers government that will carry out socialist policies to build and develop the Fire Service, the NHS, The Royal Mail and the Welfare State as a whole. This is what must be done after Newquay.

Nov 24, 2009 Phil Blackwell Uncategorized
Taking one more bow in 2009, West Genesee's boys cross country team competed at the Nov. 21 New York State Federation championships at Bowdoin Park in Wappingers Falls, taking 14th place in a 22-team field.
At that same meet, WG girls star Laura Leff finished eighth in her Federation event. Leff's time of 18 minutes, 32.7 seconds left her in eighth place, as Aisling Cuffe (Cornwall) won in 17:38.9.
What was significant was that Leff's time of 18:32.7 was the fastest 5,000-meter time posted by any eighth-grader in the entire country this season.
Overall, the boys Wildcats had 322 points, amid a crowd of contenders and just 49 points out of the top 10. North Rockland (Section I) won with 132 points.
Steve Houghmaster had a real chance at the individual championship, but settled for fifth place, the senior finishing in 16 minutes, 12.5 seconds. His Section III teammate, Shaun Thompson (Baldwinsville), was third in 16:06.0 as Max Straneva (Chenango Valley) won in 15:59.7.
As for the other WG runners, Sam Reedy finished 63rd, in 17:10.5, with Martin Leff finishing in 17:31.1. Billy Gabriel (17:46.7), Matt Gonnella (18:11.3), John DeLallo (18:18.2) and Matt Serrao (18:24.9) were close behind.

Christina Aguilera + Eminem to Duet?

Christina Aguilera Photos
Christina Aguilera Videos
Xtina and Em? Really? Possibly!
Christina Aguilera is rumored to be recruiting Eminem to duet with her on a song that would likely appear on her fifth studio album. The full-length is expected to be released next year and will follow her last album, 2010's Bionic, which was largely regarded as a flop, where Aguilera stepped away from the powerhouse voice that defined her career in favor of studio trickery and sonic synthetics that were not her hallmark or her strong point.
Let's hope she gets Back to Basics and recruits Em for a killer duet.
Would Christina Aguilera and Eminem make good duet partners?

text: Okay so yesterday I was at the Verizon store getting my Droid1 checked out and the tech support guy had a droid and we were talking about issues with the phone especially since the 2.2 update. He informed me that Verizon is planning on pushing a 2.2.1 patch update for Froyo but that may all get scrapped if 3.0 is released first. I then asked him if the droid would receive 3.0 since its processor doesn't meet the requirements but he said since the Droid's processor can be overclocked to 1.2 that the Droid is scheduled to receive the update to 3.0 and that the update will overclock the processor to meet the requirements. Has anyone else heard anything similar or know if this is in fact true?

Books about the Kennedys are legion. Yet missing until now has been the exploration of the bond between Jack and Bobby, and the part that it played in their rise and fall. Eight years apart in age, they were wildly different in temperament and sensibility. Jack was the born leader—charismatic, ironic, capable of extraordinary growth and reach, yet also pathologically reckless. Bobby was the fearless, hardworking Boy Scout—unafraid of dirty work and ruthless about protecting his brother and destroying their enemies. Jack, it was said, was the first Irish Brahman, Bobby the last Irish Puritan.
As Mahoney demonstrates with brilliant clarity in this impeccably documented, magisterial book, the Kennedys lived their days of power in dangerous, trackless territory. The revolution in Cuba had created a poisonous cauldron of pro- and anti-Castro forces, the CIA, J. Edgar Hoover's FBI, and the Mafia. Mahoney gives us Jack and Bobby in all their hubris and humanity, youthfulness and fatalism. Here is American history as it unfolds. The Kennedy Brothers is a fresh and masterful account of the men whose legacy continues to hold the American imagination. (Originally published under the title Sons and Brothers.)
Richard D. Mahoney is Kennedy Scholar Emeritus of the University of Massachusetts. He is an expert on international economics and foreign policy. He is the author of two histories of the Kennedy administration, and was the Democratic secretary of state and acting governor of Arizona. He lives in Phoenix.
With family connections as his starting point, former Arizona Secretary of State and scholar at the Kennedy Library Mahoney probes the intriguing relationship between Kennedy brothers "cool" Jack and "hot tempered" Bobb to provide a new perspective to a well-studied slice of American history. Their mutual devotion, as well as their loyalty to family patriarch Joseph, is explored with a serious, somber yet vibrant reading by Peter Altschuler and offers an engaging look at an iconic family as well as a persuasive take on the tumultuous 1960s: what led up to the era and how it continues to influence events of today.

Interesting story and relationship of the brothers
I would rank this particular book somewhere between 5-10 out of 30 of the books I've purchased through Audible.com
The death of JFK and Bobby's reaction as well as his close relationship with his sister-in-law. The whole family dynamic of the Kennedy's is intriguing to me.
distracting "Quote" "unquote "
The brothers relationship certainly inspire some emotional response from most listeners.
Had the story not been so well written and interesting I most certainly would have returned the audio file due to Altschuler's seemingly unending need to vocalize the words, quote, unquote. This so was distracting and unnecessary. I have listened to countless Presidential non-fiction and never have encountered any other narrator vocalize these quotes.

FOUR minutes after Hunter developer Darren Williams was told by a colleague to contact Nathan Tinkler about making allegedly illegal payments to an alleged Liberal Party slush fund, Mr Williams had a four minute, 25 second phone conversation with Mr Tinkler.
But when Mr Tinkler was asked at ICAC yesterday what the phone call was about, he replied it was probably about "footy scores".
RELATED: Bravado is about all Tinkler has left
ANDREW CLENNELL: Boganaire tactic was to lower the tone
ICAC: Tinkler uses footy defence
Counsel Assisting Geoffrey Watson SC laid out compelling evidence the mining magnate had full knowledge of sham payments made from his business Patinack Farm to the alleged slush fund linked to former Liberal minister Chris Hartcher, EightbyFive.
ICAC alleges $66,000 was paid through the back door in order to subvert electoral funding laws which prevented developers from donating to politicians.
The commission has heard that it was part of a bid to see Newcastle Labor MP Jodi McKay defeated at the 2011 state election and to attempt to secure approval for a $1 billion coal loader.
An email from Darren Williams, boss of Mr Tinkler's development company Buildev, to a colleague David Sharpe at 4.57pm on June 2, 2010 said: "What entity shall I give Mike Gallagher (sic).
A reply said "best to come through Patnack (sic)" and "get right away from property minning (sic) infristructure (sic)."
At 10.47am the next day, Mr Williams replies "Do I ring Nathan or Troy" to which the answer is "nt". Four minutes later the phone call comes. Counsel Assisting Geoffrey Watson SC asked Mr Tinkler: "What do you think that (phone conversation might) have been about?"
"Might have been about anything," Mr Tinkler replied, and denied ever speaking to Mr Williams about political donations.
"Darren Williams rings you out of the blue, to talk about what? Footy scores?" Mr Watson asked.
"Probably footy scores," Mr Tinkler said.
ICAC revealed yesterday Mr Tinkler made $214,000 in allegedly illegal political donations ahead of the 2011 state election — $50,000 to the Newcastle Alliance, $45,000 to the National Party, $66,000 to EightbyFive and $53,000 to the NSW Liberal Party through the Free Enterprise Foundation — at the same time he was lobbying for the coal loader in Newcastle.
In colourful evidence yesterday, Mr Tinkler was accused by Mr Watson of lying in the box.
He denied any involvement in the illegal donations, saying the donations to the National Party were a mistake and the money to the Free Enterprise Foundation was to the federal Liberals.
Mr Tinkler also faced accusations he used four employees to donate to the Nationals to get around a $5000 cap on donations — a claim he described as "ridiculous".
Mr Watson suggested one of the people who had given the money was a director of Aston Coal (a company which has on its board former National Party Deputy Prime Minister Mark Vaile) and he did so using Mr Tinkler's money.

TESOL Arabia International Travel Grants
This grant is available to TESOL Arabia members who want to attend a conference outside the UAE (e.g. TESOL International).
To apply for an International Travel Grant, please scroll down.
TESOL Arabia International Travel Grant (TAITG) Guidelines
1. Overview
TESOL Arabia offers International Travel Grants to assist members in travel, accommodation, and living expenses incurred in participating in conferences, conventions, seminars, symposia and similar professionally-related events, other than TESOL Arabia events, outside the UAE.
This grant provides limited financial support for individual eligible TESOL Arabia members to present papers, or play a significant role in such events which are relevant to TESOL Arabia. The grant is administered by the International Travel Grant Committee which is composed of the Vice President, who acts as the Committee Chair, one other member of the TESOL Arabia Executive Council, and three ordinary members of TESOL Arabia in good standing appointed at the discretion of the Chair. This Committee will field all applications.
2. Types of Events for which a Grant may be Requested
1. Any professionally-related conference or similar event held outside the UAE.
2. TESOL Arabia events such as the TESOL Arabia Annual International Conference are specifically excluded. Separate arrangements exist for offering grants to those events.
3. Current Limitations and Constraints
Given funding limitations, the following constraints are necessary:
1) Financial support available through the International Travel Grant (ITG) will in many cases be modest and partial in terms of the full costs of the proposed activity. TESOL Arabia expects that the applicants will apply for other funds and use some of their own resources. This enables the allocated resources to benefit more members.
2) There is no absolute entitlement to money in any given year and when the funds are depleted no further applications will be accepted.
3) Applicants may only be funded for one ITG every two-budget-years. The budget year runs from 1st October to 30th September.
4) No ITG Grant shall exceed 50% of the total expenses or the following limits:
a) Up to 1000 (Regional- Gulf States)
b) Up to 1500 (Middle East, Lebanon, Jordan, Syria, Iraq, Egypt, India & Pakistan)
c) Up to 3000 (Europe & Africa – With the exception of those countries listed as regional)
d) Up to 4000 (North America, South America, Asia & Far East – With the
exception of those listed as regional)
4. Eligibility
All current active members of TESOL Arabia who have been a member of TESOL Arabia for at least one full calendar year are eligible to apply for funding. Current members of TESOL Arabia who have been members for less than one full calendar year are not eligible to apply for funding.
5. Applying for an International Travel Grant
1. Applicants are requested to complete the online application in full. This will automatically be sent to the Chair of the International Travel Grant Committee when it is submitted.
2. Documentation supporting your service to TESOL Arabia should be sent as an e-mail attachment to The Committee Chair on the same day as you submit your application online. Supporting documentation is required if your service to TESOL Arabia includes possibly undocumented assistance at Chapter or SIG activities, in which case you should submit a recommendation stating your service to TESOL Arabia at these events from the appropriate Chapter Rep or SIG Chair.
3. Applications should only be submitted for the budget year in which the event will be held. The budget year runs from 1st October to 30th September.
4. Incomplete documentation will not be considered.
5. Applications should be submitted at least three weeks before the event begins. The Committee will aim at giving the candidate its decision within two weeks of submission.
6. Criteria for Awarding the International Travel Grant Funding is evaluated and awards made based on the following factors:
1. whether the applicant has previously received money from TESOL Arabia in the form of a TACon Travel Grant, an International Travel Grant, or a Professional Development Course Grant
2. the relevance of the event to TESOL Arabia for which money is requested
3. the applicant's service to TESOL Arabia
4. whether the candidate is presenting a paper or has a significant role in the event
In all cases, decisions made by the Committee are final and no correspondence regarding decisions reached will be entered into.
7. Responsibilities of the Grantee
Before payment of the ITG can be made, the following conditions must be met. The grantee must:
1. provide proof of registration for the event. This would normally be in the form of original receipts or a letter of registration.
2. if applicable, provide proof of acceptance of a presentation, or their role in the event.
3. prove attendance. This would normally be in the form of a photocopy of the conference attendance certificate.
4. provide original receipts for registration, travel, accommodation and living expenses at least to the amount of the grant
5. feed back to TESOL Arabia the knowledge gained from the event and its application to teaching English to speakers of other languages by a means agreed with the Chair.
This may be one or more of the following:
1. submitting a report of at least 500 words for Perspectives
2. presenting a session for one of the TESOL Arabia Chapter or SIG
3. completing another activity agreed with the Committee.
All original receipts, photocopies of certificates, and the written report for Perspectives (or proof of the other activity agreed upon) should be sent within two weeks of the end of the event to:
TESOL Arabia International Travel Grants Committee
Professional Development Course Grants
This grant is available to TESOL Arabia members who want to enroll in a professional development course of study.
Research Grants
This grant is available to TESOL Arabia members who want to conduct research into issues or problems pertinent to the TESOL Arabia membership and generate new knowledge about English teaching and learning in the Arabian Gulf.
Travel-In Grants
This grant is available to TESOL Arabia members who are accepted to present at the TESOL Arabia annual conference and live outside the UAE. The online application form for TACON 2016 will open on December 15th, 2015.
Affiliate Conference Grants
TESOL Arabia has recently become affiliated with several regional organizations to further our goal of providing our members with the best professional development opportunities.
TESOL International Membership Grants
Each year, TESOL Arabia receives seven complimentary memberships from TESOL International to first-time applicants who are not members of TESOL International as part of the affiliation agreement between TESOL Arabia and TESOL International.

You can find mixed-method research studies by searching in the Library databases using methodology terms as search keywords. For a mixed-method study, possible keywords include the type of study, data analysis type, or terminology used to describe the results.
The following search uses Thoreau, our multi-database search tool, to find examples of mixed-method research studies. However, you can search in any article or dissertation database for mixed-method research studies.
1. On the Library homepage, click the blue Articles by Topic button.
2. Scroll down to Search multiple databases box and the click the link for: Thoreau Multi-Database Search
3. If you have not already logged in to the Library databases, you will be prompted to log in with your myWalden Portal user name and password.
4. Type the methodology terms in the first search box. Use as many alternative terms as are relevant to your search.
5. If you need to find a study that looks at a specific topic, add topic keywords to the other search boxes.
6. Click the Search button to run your search.

Search Tips:
Using quotation marks tells the database to search for mixed method as a phrase and not as individual words.
Using the asterisk (*) truncates the search. This means the database will search for the part of the word you typed before the asterisk, along with any possible endings for the word. Using method* tells the database to search for method, methods, methodology, etc.
Connecting the alternative terms with OR tells the database to search for either of these terms.
- Many articles and dissertations will include methodology terms in the abstract or title. To make sure that you have an example of a mixed-methods research study, be sure to look at the methodology section in the full text. This will provide detailed information about the methodology used.

- Sold Date:
- Source: eBay
This is a 1963 Chrysler Imperial Convertible promotional model by AMT. This car is red with a red interior, and is in good condition. This car has one BIG problem, the windshield frame is broken and missing pieces. In all of the years we've been collecting, I don't think we've owned a '63 Imperial convertible that has had a fully intact windshield frame. The windshield frame problems are: Both vent window posts are broken off and missing, the right side is totally gone, the left side is about 50% gone; a portion of the "A" pillar is gone on the passenger side (see pictures). Aside from this, the car shows no real wear, the bumpers and wheels are in great condition as is the rest of the body. Even the hood ornament is intact. This car would still display nicely, but being such a scarce car makes it worth repairing. We are selling off a collection of promotional models and kits that took us over 30 years to complete. If you are looking for a particular model, e-mail me at , maybe I can help.PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING AUCTION TERMS AND CONDITIONS CAREFULLY: PAYMENT: Due to recent changes in ebay rules, I can now only accept Paypal payments for auction items other than a real automobile. These are the new rules that I need to follow. Payment MUST be received in my Paypal account within 7 days from the end of the auction. ... read more

Bill and Giuliana Rancic's newborn little boy is on the move.
After welcoming their son via gestational surrogate in Denver, Colo., on Aug. 29, the couple are now at home in Chicago with baby Edward Duke.
When a fan Tweeted about seeing Bill at a Garrett Popcorn Shop in Chicago, Giuliana Tweeted back: "Yep. He's bringing us home some!"
"They are so happy right now. It's beautiful to see," a source tells PEOPLE of the new mom and dad. "They love that little guy so much. He's so sweet."
Bill, who is from Chicago, recently wrote a love letter to his hometown: "When I wake up in the morning and see your skyline – the terra cotta of the Wrigley Building, the height of the Willis Tower, the shiny sides of my beloved Trump Tower – I know I'm home."
