Yesterday was an eventful day for the Bruins. In the early evening, word came from a Minnesota source that Charlie Coyle was told he was traded but not to whom.
Being told by multiple sources that #mnwild forward Charlie Coyle has been told that he has been traded but not to where yet.
Has been told not to get on his plane, his equipment has been taken off the truck

Later, Bob McKenzie confirmed that he heard it was Coyle for Ryan Donato and that they were working out the details. Bruins Hockey Twitter had mixed reactions but fans wondered why it hadn't been officially announced red by the team. It turns out that the Bruins had the full 23 man roster at that moment and they needed to make a roster move before announcing the trade. Later in the evening after sending the injured, day-to-day Peter Cehlarik back down to Providence, the Bruins made it official.

Of course, last night the Bruins were finishing up their Western swing in Las Vegas.
First Period:
Over halfway through the first period, Jake DeBrusk continued his goal streak. The Bruins may want to stay on this western road trip forever.

But the Bruins couldn't maintain the lead going into the break, as former Bruins Reilly Smith recovered a rebound and found the back of the net.
What's up with former Bruins players scoring on the Bruins lately!

Second Period:
Despite the fact they got the great Dave Goucher to announce the game, NBCSNPDQOMFGBBQ sent Pierre McGuire out there and he had to talk to a NASCAR driver during part of this period, which confused or annoyed everyone. Seriously, this is so forced.

Deep thought time…Would a Network showing a NASCAR race have a hockey player on from the pit talking about it during the action even if he didn't know much about it? Who knows, maybe they do and I just don't realize it
— Billy Jaffe (@BJaffe) February 21, 2019
Reaching out and trying to touch (!!!!!!) and talk to Zdeno Chara during the game. Are we done with this yet? Get this dude outta here.
— Ty Anderson (@_TyAnderson) February 21, 2019
At least he followed that up some time later by talking to Bruce Cassidy about the trade. Cassidy expressed that while Donato is a good young player, you have to give up some talent to get talent. This should be the only response to those who are having a tough time with the Coyle trade.
Pretty much nothing happened during this period except for Vegas being called for
and another penalty. Two power play opportunities missed.
Third Period:
Brad Marchand took matters into his own hands just after a minute into the period.

The Bruins had difficulty getting out of their own zone for the first two minutes then got called for TOO MUCH MAN. They kill off the penalty in what feels like a hundred years which required a shootout to resolve this game.
Jake DeBrusk scored the first shootout goal, Vegas' William Karlsson matched. In the sixth round, everyone's obvious pick David Backes got the game winner.

Another snake oil salesman. No clinical studies, no data, just a claim. And if you notice, it was published over 2 years ago (December 03, 2010). If it were real, the "scientist" would be a household name by now. They will market it like a vitamin so that they don't get sued.
Keep it positive and smile :)

Every year the German music label Ruf Records assembles three of their best artists and sends them on tour together. This year, that tour, the Blues Caravan, is coming to Revelstoke, with Jimmy Bowskill, Joanne Shaw Taylor, and Bart Walker on board.
"What he does is he just puts together three of his artists with a backup band and we just tour around. So, Blues Caravan, man," Jimmy Bowskill told me on the phone from Los Angeles, where he was working on some new songs during a break in the tour.
This year's tour is being dubbed as Tomorrow's Guitar Heroes. Taylor is the veteran of the group, having played on the Blues Caravan tour in 2009. Originally from England and now living in Texas, she has played with the likes of Annie Lennox and B.B. King.
Walker, who is based in Nashville, released his debut album, Who Am I, last year, He was also named the best guitarist at the 2012 International Blues Challenge.
"Bart's a little more Texas rock, ZZ-Top, Skynyrd sort of sound. A little more country flavoured. Joanne's a little more Hendrix-y. A llittle more psychedelic, jammy sort of stuff," said Bowskill. "My stuff is seventies trio rock, like Cream."
According to his press sheet, Bowskill, 22, from Toronto, was discovered by Jeff Healey when he was only 11 years old. He told me he got into guitar at a young age through his parents, who were both music lovers.
"My dad was a bit of a singer and he used to jam with his buddy, a guitar player from Toronto," said Bowskill. "He was great, really inspired me to get going. Having all those classic records around … I just wanted to be a guitar player. I was surrounded by it."
The three of them met for the first time last fall for a photo shoot and to record a demo track to promote the tour. So far they have played about 50 shows together and have another 30 coming up starting this week in Nelson, B.C. They are in Revelstoke on Saturday, May 25, at the Revelstoke Performing Arts Centre at 7:30 p.m.
The Blues Caravan tour will see each musician play a 30–40-minute set, backed up by the same drummer and bass player. It gives them each a chance to show off their chops. At the end of the night, the three guitarists will take to the stage and play a few songs together. "It's pretty diverse, and because of that, it's fun," said Bowskill.
The most memorable show so far was one in a small town in East Germany, where they played a three-level bar with folk-art adorning the walls. From the upper floors you could look down and see the band play.
"It was packed and just great vibes. It was a cool venue and awesome show," he said.
I put Bowskill on the spot a little by asking him his dream Blues Caravan lineup. If he could play with any two blues artists, dead or alive, who would it be?
"That's a hard one to answer because I don't know what it would be like with different folks," he replied. "It would be hard to imagine doing it with other folks."
Blues Caravan is at the Revelstoke Performing Arts Centre on Saturday, May 25, at 7 p.m. Tickets are $20.

Why Hire a Female Private Investigator?
Of course it's essential to look for great experience, success rate, membership of associations, references and the right training when hiring a private investigator. However, sometimes you need to consider gender as well. That's why we're here to tell you why it's a good idea to hire a female private investigator in some situations…
Female private investigators are fantastic at conducting:
– matrimonial investigations
– tracing missing persons
– internet dating fraud
– vehicle tracking
– background checks investigations
– infidelity investigations
Matrimonial Investigations
If you're in a heterosexual or lesbian marriage and you suspect your partner of infidelity, then a female private investigator can be a huge advantage when gathering evidence. Our female private investigators are expertly trained on sympathetic listening and an understanding demeanour while remaining rational and professional at all times.
Undercover female private investigators are statistically less likely to arouse suspicion. Recent reports suggest female private investigators are more likely to make the subject feel at ease, thus more information can be extracted. Our female private investigators are trained to have developed people skills – all of our investigators, male and female, are well-trained in all sectors of the industry.
Identity Theft
This is where your identity is stolen by fraudsters in order to open bank accounts, take out loans/credit cards, take out mobile phone contracts and sell on official documents such as your driving license, passport and birth certificate. If you're a female victim of identity theft we can send a female private investigator to pretend to "purchase" your identity documents. This makes it seem like a genuine "transaction" and the thief will be caught red-handed in no time.
Whatever your needs for a private investigator, Insight Investigations can help. Our team of dedicated private investigators can provide a bespoke service from asset tracing to
identity theft, we're here to help.
If you need discreet assistance from a private investigator please call 0808 2578 8638 for more information on how we can help you.

List Building Strategies – Email Marketing
There are so many different strategies to building your list. Here are the key points you must apply if you want to build your list:
– Create and deliver UNBELIVABLE value. You've heard the saying, " you only get one chance to make a first impression". It's true. You MUST,MUST,MUST give away your "BEST" stuff. You want your audience to say, "I can't believe ________ gave this away! THey could have charged for it". That's when you know you made the right impression.
I speak with business owners on this topic all the time. Most of them really struggle with this. They say "if i give it away, what will I sell?". My best example is this… I live in Arizona. Where the largest size of a grass lot is about 10x10feet (if they are lucky). 90% of people (speculation) still pay a landscaping company to cut it!
Now, it"s not that they can't. It's that they won't. Or don't want to
Your customers is no different. Heck, you are no different!
When we have a problem most of us will jump on Google and try to find the solution. We read a few blogs. Watch a few videos. And then we decide that it's 'best left to the professionals' and we call someone to solve our prbolem and fix it for us.
It's not that we can't. it's that we don't want to.
If small businesses are marketing correctly they should be the business that provided the solution… and ultimately they will get the call.
If not, the person will likely arbitrarily head back to Google and make a random call.. you get the point.
The point here is that the key to building your list is to give away value.
2. Have a way to capture leads. You need a web form, landing page, or squeeze page. Basically, you need your offer and a couple of boxes that they can fill it to get what you are giving away.
3. Once you have a compelling offer (or a few), and you have the form, you need to gain some awareness. There are literally hundred's of ways you can gain awareness (many of them free). Here's a handful to get you started.
– On the right side margin of your website
– In the footer of your blog.
– Guest blog on other sites.
– On social networks (Facebook, Twitter, Google Plus, Pinterest, Instagram, Linkedin, etc…)
The key here is to present a compelling offer that has tremendous value in as many places as you possibly can.

Through the Valley of the Shadow of DeathMay 20, 2016
We're talking today about the one thing that is certain for every living thing and every person ever conceived – we're talking today about the certain reality of death and all the uncertainties that swirl around the subject.
The image of the valley of the shadow of death from Psalm 23 has been a source of comfort at many a funeral. We walk through the valley with the Good Shepherd and indeed, often He carries us. But we also walk through the valley alongside those we love best in the world. We walk with them in pain until pain is no more – they pass through the end of the valley with the Lord, and there we stand.
Then we must turn and make our way back through the valley of the shadow of death, through the process of grief, still with the Good Shepherd but no longer in the company of the friend or lover or child now gone. The walk back out of the valley of the shadow is important preparation for the final time we each will walk that way.

Why Contextual Advertising Is Still Hard
Contextualized advertising is serving the right message to the right person at the right time. Standing in the way of that goal are several hurdles. Among them: user personalization, segmentation and a deluge of data.
Mobile personalization can create additional complexities that we don't generally see on the PC side of the world. This can be both a challenge and an opportunity, but adds some new dimensions to how we work to connect with consumers.
This difficulty in leveraging user behaviors makes micro-segmentation more difficult. This is where real value from contextualized ads is found. As close to one-to-one as you can make an ad, the more value it has for the recipient. Having segments that are too large can decrease the overall impact of the ads for a given consumer.
Advertisers can improved their segmentation by sifting through omnichannel data sets. While there's great progress in this area, attributing online, real world and mobile actions to an end result remains elusive to some of the industry.
New Tools Making Contextual Advertising Easier
New data tools, optimization techniques and leveraging exchanges are all emerging to make contextual advertising easier.
Algorithms that can recognize and contextualize mixed data sets are paving the way for more relevant contextual ads. You can target based on location (information that's automatically provided by a mobile device), behavior and by predetermined personalization rules. So, someone is now seen as a specific category of user based on what they do, where they are and other relevant data. Messages can be personalized based on these characteristics to get the right ad in front of the right person.
Once a user can be tied to a mobile number, this opens up a world of contextual opportunities. These IDs can be closely tied to segment and location, and passed along to real-time-bidding (RTB) exchanges. Here, brands and advertisers can serve a contextualized ad to the correct mere moments after he/she makes a trigger action. Where as before, this data would be aggregated and analyzed monthly or weekly, we are getting close to the point of real time analysis and optimization.
Mobile is going to continue to grow as will its use as a way for brands to interact with their customers. However, the mobile device is far more personal than your email inbox. Fortunately, there are ways to implement a mobile marketing strategy that delivers relevant information that your customers want to receive. By understanding how your customers want to engage with you will help you build loyalty and in turn, help you see faster returns on your marketing investment.

Developing the Spirit's Fruit of Love - Galatians
- tonight we're going to begin looking at various components
of the fruit of the Spirit
- I realize we have some of the young people who would
normally be in clubs with us tonight, so let's review some
of the things we've talked about in the last couple of
- we're talking about Gal. 5:22 (READ)
- we've said that that when God wanted to talk about the
character qualities that he wanted to build in us, he used
the used the word "fruit" to communicate some important
lessons to us
- INPUT - what were some of those lessons?
- fruit is delightful
- fruit must be watered
- branches of a fruit tree must be pruned (cut back)
- fruit has seeds and can grow more fruit
- fruit takes time to mature
- fruit can't be manufactured artificially
- we also said the word fruit is singular
- - God is talking about one fruit
- INPUT - why did God say it that way?
- that's what God wants you to be like
- - he wants you be a loving person, a joyful person, a peaceable person,
a patient person
- that's the fruit God wants to develop in you
- we asked ourselves the question, "when others think of you,
do they think of the spirit's fruit?"
- when your parent, teacher, boss, spouse, sister,
brother, classmate, neighbor...
- thinks of you - would they think of the words in verse
- another way we said it was
- - how would those around us fill in the blank?
- being around so and so is like taking a bit out of a _______
- being around so and so is like taking a bite out of a
big peach
- so sweet and juicy
- I just can't get enough of that person
- or would those around you say
- - being like so and so is like taking a bite out of a big rock
- - cold, hard, and distasteful
- tonight, we want to begin looking at each individual component or part of the fruit of the Spirit
- tonight we're just going to look at the first one, other
nights we may take more than one at a time
- we're talking about developing the Spirit's fruit of love
let's begin with:
I. Definition of Love
A. World's Ideas?
- love is something you fall into
- love is a feeling
- love is having sex
- love is being a macho man
- love is never having to say I'm sorry
- if we're not careful, some of these ideas can creep
into our understanding of love, and whether or not
we believe we are developing this particular fruit
of the spirit
B. From the word meanings
there are four major words in Greek that are translated love in English
1. stergo - affection, especially for family members
this one is only used in the Bible in a few
places, like II Tim. 3:3 - without natural affection
2. phileo - fondness, love for people who are
connected in some way, either by blood or by faith
- of course the word Philadelphia is based on
this word, and means the city of brotherly love
3. eros - sensual love
- this word was used widely in the Greek
language, but it never occurs in the Bible
4. agape - sacrificial love
- always a personal choice to sacrifice, a self-
giving service, directed at meeting the need of
someone else, even when a prior relationship
had not been established
- now I want to be sure that I've said that there is
clear overlap in these words, but the last one is
the one that really emphasizes love even for
individuals who don't deserve it, or for those who
we don't have a relationship with
- a good example of the way this word is used is Rom.
5:8 - INPUT - Quote? (but God commended...)
- I'm sure it won't surprise you to learn that when
God wanted to talk about the fruit He wants to
develope in us, he used the word "agape"
- that meaning also rings true when we look at:
C. From the word usage
- John 3:16 - For God so loved the world, that He gave
- Eph. 5:25 - Husbands, love your wives, as Christ loved
the church, and gave Himself for it
- Gal. 2:20 - I am crucified with Christ, and I no longer
live, but Christ lives in me, and the life that I
now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son
of God who loved me and gave himself for me
- John 15:13 - Greater love hath no man than this, that a
man lay down his life for his friends
- I John 3:16 - By this perceive we the love of God,
because He laid down his life for us, and we ought
to lay down our lives for the brethren
- Rom. 5:6-8
- point is, that when God talks about love--even in the
words He chooses and the way in which those words
are used - He talking about something much different
than the way our world talks about this word.
- When God talks about it, He's talking about a
choice that you or I make to sacrifice or give of
ourselves to meet the need of someone else, even
if a prior relationship has not been established
- now, a good question for all of us to ask at this point
would be - has my definition of love been the same as
God's definition?
- Have I been using that word and thinking about that
concept the same way God does?
- let's apply that concept to a couple of well worn
phrases in our society just to be sure we have the
definition down.
- (I'd like to have one of our teen-agers answer this
one) - How is what we're talking about tonight
different than the guy who says to his date - "If you
loved me, you'd have sex with me?" (the person who
says that has just told you in the strongest possible
terms - I don't love you - because they are interested
in what they can get, not what they can give.)
- let's try another one - what about for the husband who
concludes - "I just don't feel like I love my wife
- so that's the definition of love, and we all need to ask
ourselves if we are using that word, and thinking about
that word, in a way that is consistent with the way God
- I realize that we have some of our young people from clubs
here tonight, so let me ask a question to be sure you
younger ones are understanding what we're saying
- if love is giving of what I have to help someone else,
how could you be loving with the new toys you just got for
Christmas when a friend comes over and wants to play?
(3rd grade or younger answer)
- what would be an unloving thing to do?
- now there are obviously all kinds of applications of this
concept, but the next thing we have to talk about is - What
II. The Connection To The Context
- there are some definite reasons why Paul began his list
with this word, and some of those reasons apply to the
Galatians themselves
Here's some things that were going on in their church:
A. What was happening in the Galatian church
1. 4:15-16 - turned on their friend Paul, calling him
an enemy
2. 5:26 - proud, envious, provoking each other
3. 5:15 - "biting and devouring" each other
- you can imagine how that could happen if a
church becomes legalistic
- everybody's got their little list of spiritual
do's and don'ts that aren't based on the
- going around declaring anyone who doesn't
meet the criteria on his/her list to be
unspiritual or even unsaved
- INPUT - let me ask you, over time, what
kind of atmosphere is that going to breed
- what words come to mind? (proud,
hateful, bickering, competitive -
anything but loving)
- at issue here is, how do you respond to those
with whom you have a disagreement?
- there's nothing intrinsically wrong with
disagreeing with someone, or having a
discussion in the church about what God would
want in a certain situation and what he
wouldn't want
- but Paul wants them to see, that the first thing that
better be evident in them, even in the midst of
disagreements over certain standards in the Christian
life, is a loving spirit
- its absolutely, always wrong to stand for truth in an
unloving way
- there's something wrong with someone who says - I'm
standing on God's side, standing for truth, standing
for the law, yet doing that in a unloving way
- Paul said - Rom. 13:10 - the fulfillment of the law is
- Eph: 4:15 - speak the truth in love
- that leads us to a very important question:
B. How about with you?
- we need to ask ourselves - am I characterized by
a loving spirit, even with those with whom I don't
1. with those who are unsaved
- unbelievers can do some things that really bother
- perhaps you've experienced some of that over the
- now being loving doesn't mean we never talk, we
never speak truth - but an unbeliever ought to
come away from time with us thinking - "I don't
necessarily agree with what the person has to say
-but I sure appreciate the way they say it"
- or, "I don't understand what they're talking about
yet, or why that issue is so important to them -
but they sure express it in a loving way"
- this applies not just to spiritual issues, but to
any issue where you might have a disagreement with
a person who doesn't know Christ
- how about when that happens at work?
- would those involved say you were characterized by
the fruit of the Spirit
- how about the teacher at school that messed up your
- how about the clerk at the store who was rushed and
unkind and so busy she made a mistake and- you get
home and look at the receipt and sure enough - she
was wrong and you were right
- you're on your way back over to the mall and you're
making your plan of attack - when that situation is
over - is the person going to say of you - she
sure is a loving person
- the first component of the spirit's fruit is love
2. with those who are saved
- there are folks who are believers who don't see
things the way we do in certain circumstances
- we need to ask ourselves tonight, are we loving
in those situations
- if you've been around here any length of time,
you know that we have some strong convictions
around here about the sufficiency of the Bible.
- We believe the Bible has all we need for life
and godliness and therefore when a believer has
a problem, he ought to go to the Word of God to
find answers.
- well, as you know, not every person who says they're a
Christian believes that
- and we have opportunities from time to time to discuss
those issues with those folks, or we have people ask us
questions about certain authors, or radio show hosts, etc.
- and often discussions are within the context of some sort
of disagreement
(and you've probably been in some of those discussions
- the question has to be - am I a loving person even
in those situations
- see, the Galatians were not
- they proved the shallowness of their faith, or their
plain lack of it by the way they handled each other
when there was a disagreement
- the fruit of the spirit was not evident
- I would have to say with you sadly that there are a few
folks who would agree with us on philosophy of ministry or
counseling who we really can't associate ourselves with
because of their bitter, caustic spirit
- point is - one of the major components of the fruit of the
spirit is love, and we need to ask ourselves, am I
developing that part of the spirit's fruit in my life?
- would my children say that? my parents? my spouse?
my co-workers? my neighbor? folks at church?
- Can you think of ways you definitely have sacrificed of
yourself to meet the needs of others?
- I think we also need to say that this doesn't just apply
individually, it applies corporately as well
- God wants Faith Baptist Church to be a loving church, to
evidence the spiritual fruit of love
- often times I'll ask folks who are new, "what are you
looking for in a church?"
- Do you know what they almost always say? (not doctrinally sound, though I'm sure that's important/ not one with a lot of programs)
- almost always say
- we'd like a friendly church
what they are saying is
- we'd like a church where folks are loving
- see, remember we said - one of the things that
distinguishes agape love is that seeks to meet needs
even with individuals where there has been no prior
relationship, or even when that relationship has
been strained in the past
- they are looking for a church where folks are friendly,
loving, willing to sit down next to them, introduce
themselves, strike up a conversation, show some interest,
send a note, call during the week
- I think we need to say - that doesn't come naturally
- that only comes from making a conscious choice of
looking for folks to love in that way
- it means I may not be able to spend all the time I want
with my established friend right now
- I want to be sure I'm developing the spiritual fruit of
- if that's true, then another good question to ask tonight
would be, "are we developing that spiritual fruit as a
church body?"
- if there was a meat thermometer type device that measured
love what would we find when we checked the body of
Christ here?
- another way of looking at that would be
- if our church's performance in this area was based solely on you
- in other words, if everyone here was exactly as loving as you were,
just how loving would our church be
- see, are our worship services a loving environment to come
in to, are our Sunday school classes that way, is our youth
group, our nursery
- God wants us individually, and God wants us corporately, to
be developing the spirit's fruit of love
- by the way, I believe the Outdoor Living Nativity will give
us a great opportunity to develop this important character
- you may have already been thinking as we were presenting
that special outreach ministry
- but what about the weather
- that might hinder my holiday schedule
- that will be a lot of work
- I think we need to say this - what a great opportunity
to be loving
- what a great opportunity to think about the tremendous
spiritual need that exists in our community and how
marvelous it would be if we could be used of the Lord
to meet that need in the lives of people
- the church of Galatia was really lacking in this area
- it would be good tonight for you and I to think about how
we're doing
- now I had a hard decision to make at this point
- because the problem when it comes to this subject
- "Where can I go in the Bible to find material on this subject?"
- - instead, its "Of all the material in the Bible on this subject, what would be most profitable for those involved in the study to hear?
- we could go a number of directions here
- could talk about Christ's example - a number of great
passages on this subject
- we could talk about how true biblical love can only be
evidenced by those who are saved
- a # of passages about that
- we could go to I Cor. 13:3, study the beautiful
characteristics of love that are listed there
- we could study the OT prophet Hosea and his wife Gomer,
and the wonderful picture of God's love that book
- buts lets pass those up and ask:
III. In What Ways Are You And I Most Likely To Fail In This
- let me ask you to turn to Matt. 5
- read 17-18, 21-22
A. Principle - "Don't be trapped by selective application"
- Jesus knew that many folks had the habit of
applying His truth to the easy areas of life,
without really thinking through the true intent of
the command and applying it across the board
- now, did that problem cease back in Bible days?
- of course not, you and I could get caught in this same
trap even this evening and say, well, I'm loving to
this person or I'm loving in this situation
- while that's good
- – that's not really the issue and that kind of thinking probably
- will not result in you and I developing this component of the fruit of the spirit in a way that's pleasing to The Lord
- the question ought to be
- - who are you tempted not be loving toward?
- - In what situations are you least loving or just plain unloving?
- the lord applies that same principle to love in verse 43
(read 43-48)
B. Principle applied to love
- see, our Lord said
- - it's not enough just to be loving to those who are loveable
- - if the children of God you'll be loveable even to your enemies, or
those who are hard to love
- I think it'd be very wise to make a chart, either in our
mind or on paper, that lists the various folks that we
have contact with on a regular basis from easiest to
love to most difficult to love
Easiest to love Hardest To Love
- then we need to ask this - at what point to I cease
evidencing the spiritual fruit of love?
- see, for some, they would have to draw the line very close
to the left, because they are loving to a very select
few, but after that they are cold and indifferent
- we could do the same, except using situations instead of
Easiest To Be Loving Hardest To Be Loving
- we could lead our children through a similar exercise
- then the question would become this, after I've identified
who I have trouble loving, or in what situations I
have the most difficulty, now what steps must I take in
order to develop this fruit
- I believe that God would be greatly pleased if we would
seek to grow in this area

Humiliating news for Biggest Loser star Shannan
Michelle and Commando's departure from The Biggest Loser ended up being a blessing for the pair - with surviving Loser fitness guru Shannon Ponton left to deal with some seriously humiliating news today.
The Biggest Loser - once a major ratings hit - is to be dumped into an afternoon time slot, after atrocious ratings in prime time. The show is now certain to be axed after the current series has finished airing.
Ten program chief Beverley McGarvey admitted to news.com.au that the network was 'disappointed' over the failure of the show.
'It really hasn't resonated with audiences the way we had hoped,' she said.
'It is a very competitive time of year. There are two very established shows on [My Kitchen Rules and Married at First Sight] that are creating a lot of noise.
'We hoped it would do a lot better but it simply hasn't. We think we've given it as long as we possibly can. It will move to daytime from Monday.'
The show, which was once the talk of the county, will now go up against such fare as Channel 7's midday movie and Extra on Nine.
Michelle and Commando have yet to comment!

Top 10 Vancouver 2011 Stanley Cup Riot ReflectionsJune 18th, 2011
I may not be the world's best blogger, but I know how to collect links and make a top ten list. I stayed up until sunrise on June 15th or more accurately the morning of June 16th, reading reports, and writing down my thoughts. I also participated in the discussion going on simultaneously while people watched the riots unfold on TV. I was actually in what used to be the centre of downtown Vancouver before it shifted West, I watched the game at the Alibi Room, but after the game was over, despite disappointment and the first car being lit on fire, I just headed on home up the hill to Mount Pleasant. Pretty ironic I watched the Vancouver Riots of 2011 from my apartment in Mount Pleasant.
Anyway without further ado here are the best ten links I've collected. Alas after many years several of them no longer are online but the Flickr photos are unlike in my original post:
- Vancouver's Human Flesh Search Engine
- Social Media brings out the Snitch in all of us
- After a Loss in Vancouver, Troubling Signals of Citizen Surveillance
This is my last post directly about the riots, at least until considerable time passes. There are bigger problems facing the world and me personally, than the damage done to the city where I was born, by a bunch of angry drunks. Writing about them did increase my pageviews some, but I don't even have any ads to display. I do have friends all over the world so I've been asked by people from Korea, Austria, and Wales how the city is doing after the chaos.
The windows can be fixed, the streets cleaned, the rioters arrested, but the damage done to the city's image and the anger caused by the events of the last few days will take years and years to finally disappear.
More Thoughts on the Riots
Alexandra Samuel collected 10 different excerpts from 10 different individuals reflecting on the riots, some of which I've linked to previously, some of which are new to me. I've tried to move on, work on something positive instead of dwelling on the actions of idiots. I still don't understand what the rioters were thinking or those that just hung out and cheered them on. Obvious crimes were being committed, deliberately in plain sight. The riot act had been read. I do think camera phones and internet celebrity producing sites like YouTube played a role in people staying to film the chaos, but individuals who took part in the rioting and looting, they made a choice and especially if they chose to consume large quantities of alcohol prior to heading downtown, they deserve to face the consequences of their actions. No one has a lot of sympathy for drunk drivers, why should rioting while drunk be any different? It is dangerous, reckless, and costs the public and truly innocent bystanders dearly.
After all these years many stories by the mainstream media have disappeared or moved behind paywalls but random blogs like mine have not forgotten names and faces. I'm all too aware of the dangers of social media. I'm once again looking for a new job and updating my website to try and make it more professional, trying to direct people to the highlights and remove and minimize the lowlights. If after all these years you still have thoughts on the Vancouver Stanley Cup riots or social media you can leave them below.

Is the reign of spam coming to an end?
Hold up! Before you read on, please read this...
This post was published more than 13 years ago
I keep old posts on the site because I often enjoy reading old content on other people's sites. It can be interesting to see how views have changed over time: for example, how my strident teenage views have, to put it mildly, mellowed.
I'm not a believer in brushing the past under the carpet. I've written some offensive rubbish on here in the past: deleting it and pretending it never happened doesn't change that. I hope that stumbling across something that's 13 years old won't offend anyone anew, because I hope that people can understand that what I thought and felt and wrote about then is probably very different to what I think and feel and write about now. It's a relic of an (albeit recent) bygone era.
So, given the age of this post, please bear in mind:
- My views may well have changed in the last 13 years. I have written some very silly things over the years, many of which I find utterly cringeworthy today.
- This post might use words or language in ways which I would now consider highly inappropriate, offensive, embarrassing, or all three.
- Factual information might be outdated.
- Links might be broken, and embedded material might not appear properly.
Okay. Consider yourself duly warned. Read on...
Since midnight, I've received 313 spam emails, and 11 genuine emails. So, on this pretty representative sample, 97% of my email is spam. That's probably atypical, as my email address is liberally sprinkled all over the internet, but still, 97% of my email is spam.
On this very blog, there have been no genuine comments since midnight, but hundreds of spam comments (I haven't even bothered to count…). That's not really such a representative sample, but I'd say about 97% of the comments received on here are spam, too.
Yet, thanks to my spam filters, I've only seen one spam email get through to my inbox, and one spam comment was caught in my moderation queue (where spam comments are held if my advanced spam filter okays the message but my crude one doesn't). Out of several hundred spam messages, only two have passed before my eyes. That's much, much less than 1% of the spam I'm sent.
So, effectively, instead of the huge proportion of spam destroying email as a communication tool, it is probably less of an issue for me now than it was when only a few spam messages were hitting my inbox. With such a volume, the filters have become more finely trained, so that there are few false-negatives, and very, very, very few false-positives. Spammers are killing their own trade by inundating me.
Clearly, as long as people respond to spam, spam will continue. But it actually seems that, despite spammers getting more advanced, the success of their message in getting through is actually decreasing (except for on the odd occasion when things go wrong). So, perhaps, if the spam stops getting through to most people, it will stop being a problem for most people – and maybe the spammers will have to find other ways of conning people.

Kirtan is ultimately something which cannot be explained by words - it has to be experienced...
"Kirtan is ultimately something which cannot be explained by words - it has to be experienced. It's always a higher connection - even if you are not consciously feeling it. It's alive, progressive, and rich with the fine nuances of an unfolding relationship.
Sometimes it may act as a mirror which reveals to you the pulse of your inner life.
How can you describe the relish of honey, the emotion of love, or the event of giving birth? In some mysterious way, kirtan can be compared with all of that - but then it is also completely different.
Words can show us the direction in which to look for the kirtan-experience, but only when you sit down, move towards your inner space, and then sing out, will you start to know what kirtan really is.
Because at that time your soul will rise up and start to dance..."

Nectar about kirtana and the Holy Name
(13. January 2010)
The idea of organizing the "Holy Name Retreat" emerged from a realization we made during our many Japa Retreats. Simply put: We became aware that the dharma for the age of kali is sankirtana – singing with devotion the Holy Names in the association of others. It is primarily through this process that realization of Krsna can take place.
Krsna das Kaviraja Gosvami writes in this regard:
tattva-vastu—krsna, krsna-bhakti, prema-rupa
nama-sankirtana—saba ananda-svarupa
"The Absolute Truth is Sri Krsna, and loving devotion to Sri Krsna in pure love is achieved through congregational chanting of the holy name, which is the essence of all bliss."
Our vaisnava scriptures contain a wealth of information on kirtana. When I began to seriously research the subject, I was overwhelmed by the nectarean information on the proper moods, proper styles, proper skills, etc. of doing kirtana. Step by step my enthusiasm to share all this information has grown unlimitedly.
Now, I am dedicating a good part of my service to research this exiting subject matter even further and systematically give training in the art of kirtana.
The Holy Name Retreats will summarize the insights of the Japa Retreats and then go further into explaining and doing kirtana. Good kirtana improves japa – and good japa also brings about improved kirtana. Really, both of them are complementing each other, because they are based on the same thing: Krsna's most merciful form - the Holy Name.
As the research on kirtana deepened I felt like a spiritual archeologist who had just found a lost treasure and who now wants to share it with the world. So I decided to develop the Holy Name retreat with my "Vedic Way" team.
This Holy Name is so merciful that devotees have even glorified the kali-yuga as the best yuga, since the yuga dharma of this age is chanting.
Let's look at the following quote:
"I am most satisfied by this particular yuga – the kali-yuga. This is because the result of all spiritual processes (meditation, sacrifices, Deity worship) can be obtained in kali-yuga simply by chanting the Holy Names of Lord Kesava (sankirtya kesavam). O great sages, a small effort in kali-yuga is the cause of the greatest good fortune for mankind. No doubt, I am most satisfied by this particular yuga."
I am unlimitedly grateful to Srila Prabhupada and the previous acaryas of our gloriousparampara, who reveal the deepest knowledge to us. This gratitude will manifest during the seminar in lectures, workshops and lila-katha, all centered on becoming deeply absorbed in the Holy Name - and of course in soul-uplifting kritanas.
These retreats are open to anyone sincerely interested in practicing Krsna consciousness. I am most enthusiastic to receive and serve all of you.

The Raveonettes rave on as usual on new EP Into the Night
The Raveonettes' new EP Into the Night is business as usual for the Danish duo. But when "business as usual" means visionary noise pop and velvet-black melodies, who's really complaining?
The four tracks sound a bit like B-sides from last year's full-length Raven in the Grave, but that's not to say that they aren't as engaging. The first descending guitar notes lead you into a underground of sound grown thick with fuzz, from which shadowy noise pop and Sune Rose Wagner's and Sharin Foo's androgynous harmonies echo.
Their lyrics, always a highlight (despite their dark tendencies), are still that great balance of self-aware humour and teenage-blind emotion: "Oh heartbreak, I hate you," or, "Do you care if I die? Do you care if I die?"
The Spector-haunted indie-rock thing has been de rigueur for much of this decade, so it can be hard for a band to liven that Ray-Ban-wearing skeleton without coming off trite. However, the Raves accomplish this with their every release, including Into the Night.
Experimentation is a double-edged sword: Repetition gets boring, but fixing a formula that ain't broke can be fatally stupid as well. The Raveonettes have always understood this, and they evolve just enough to survive, to keep listeners coming back for more, but not so much that they lose what made them and their hits ("Attack of the Ghost Riders", "Last Dance") irresistible in the first place.
After all, the music that influences the band—chordally simple '50's rock'n'roll and girl and boy groups from the '60's—hasn't "gotten old" in all this time. Some of it has even bettered with age.
If you agree, pick up the Raveonettes' latest. Their modern take on these classic points of reference might finally give you something new to tap your saddleshoes to.
Into the Night became available to buy on Tuesday, but you can listen to it at the AOL livestream.

Washington. U.S. President Donald Trump stormed out of talks with Democratic congressional leaders on Wednesday over funding for a border wall with Mexico and reopening the government, complaining the meeting at the White House was "a total waste of time."
On the 19th day of a partial government shutdown caused by the dispute over the wall, a short meeting that included Trump, House of Representatives Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Senate Democratic leader Chuck Schumer ended in acrimony with no sign of a resolution.
"Just left a meeting with Chuck and Nancy, a total waste of time," Trump wrote on Twitter. "I asked what is going to happen in 30 days if I quickly open things up, are you going to approve Border Security which includes a Wall or Steel Barrier?" Trump wrote. "Nancy said, NO. I said bye-bye, nothing else works!"
Exasperated Democrats called Trump's behaviour a "temper tantrum" and said the meeting broke down when they refused to commit to funding his proposed southern border wall. Trump's desire for a wall between the United States and Mexico was a central theme of his 2016 presidential campaign.
"It was a petulant president of the United States," Pelosi told reporters when she returned to the Capitol. "A person who would say: 'I'll keep government shut down for weeks, months or years unless I get my way.' That's just not the way democracy works, and so it's very sad."
Schumer said Trump had "a temper tantrum." The lawmaker told reporters: "That is sad and unfortunate. We want to come to an agreement. We believe in border security. We have different views."
The breakdown in talks could strengthen the possibility that Trump will declare a national emergency to build a wall on the southern border if no deal with Congress can be reached on his request for $5.7 billion (4.5 billion pounds) for the project.
Earlier on Wednesday, Trump said he had the authority to declare a national emergency that would let him pay for the wall with military funds. Vice President Mike Pence told reporters Trump was still considering that option.
Asked what Trump had gained by walking out, Pence said: "I think the president made his position very clear today: that there will be no deal without a wall."
Shortly after the White House meeting broke up, the Democratic-controlled House of Representatives passed legislation to end a partial shutdown of the Treasury Department and some other agencies that have been closed since Dec. 22, without money for the wall.
But there was no indication that the Senate, controlled by Trump's fellow Republicans, would allow a vote on the bill.
Democrats are eager to force Republicans to choose between funding the Treasury's Internal Revenue Service – at a time when it should be gearing up to issue tax refunds to millions of Americans – and voting to keep it partially shuttered.
In a countermove, the Trump administration said that even without a new shot of funding, the IRS would somehow make sure those refund checks get sent.
The National Treasury Employees Union filed suit on Wednesday challenging the administration's authority to force federal employees to work without pay.
Trump attended a lunch meeting of Senate Republicans on Wednesday and emerged to declare unwavering support for the tough stance he has taken on funds for the wall.

I've been listening to some interesting podcasts from the creators of the Bible Project. There was one conversation that particularly attracted my attention; here's a short review.
Michael Sandel, a Harvard law professor, identified 3 visions of "Justice". Any given person will generally lean towards one of these views of justice.
- Maximising Welfare - justice is: the greatest good and least harm for the most people
- Respecting Freedoms - justice is: the rights and freedoms for each individual to live as they wish
- Promoting Virtue - justice shapes a society so people act as they ought to in accordance with moral virtue
We can see these visions of justice divide political groups and communities, but the Bible has a place for all of these.
An example of maximizing welfare and promoting virtue is in Zechariah 7:9-10 : Thus has the LORD of hosts said, 'Dispense true justice and practice kindness and compassion each to his brother; and do not oppress the widow or the orphan, the stranger or the poor; and do not devise evil in your hearts against one another.'
And an example of social justice and liberty is in Isaiah 61:1 : The Spirit of the Lord God is upon me, because the Lord has anointed me to bring good news to the poor; he has sent me to bind up the broken hearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the prison to those who are bound.
Today let's embrace all the ways that God's justice works.

Target: Mick Gentleman, Minister for Planning and Land Management of the Australia Capital Territory
Goal: Stop the Australian government from needlessly killing thousands of native kangaroos.
Australian officials have approved the culling of kangaroos in the Australian Capital Territory for yet another year. For the next three months, thousands of the native marsupials will be massacred in an attempt to control their population. Kangaroos are an essential part of Australia's natural ecosystem and help reduce the risk of damaging brush fires, and therefore must be protected against this needless form of cruelty.
As part of the annual cull, unlicensed hunters are allowed to participate and kill virtually any animals that they find in a variety of inhumane ways, including the clubbing of young kangaroos and their mothers. Additionally, those opposing the cull have faced prosecution, making it difficult for animal rights groups to rally against the ongoing cruelty.
The Australian government must listen to the voices of those who stand against this cull that lacks any scientific basis and results in the suffering and death of thousands of animals. Sign below to demand that officials seek non lethal alternatives to controlling the kangaroo population.
Dear Minister Gentleman,
Each year since 2009, thousands of kangaroos have been ruthlessly killed each year in the Australian Capital Territory as part of a misguided attempt to control their population. While kangaroos are prolific by nature, they are an integral part of the ecosystem and help maintain Australia's biodiversity while reducing the risk of damaging fires by clearing away excessive brush.
Unless government officials intervene, thousands of kangaroos will be killed in a host of inhumane and cruel ways, including the brutal clubbing of young joeys and their mothers. These native creatures should be allowed to thrive as they have for millennia, not killed in mass numbers to make way for livestock or other human endeavors. If population control is indeed necessary, we urge you to find humane, non lethal alternatives that do not cause harm to one of Australia's most iconic species.

Cycling New Zealand flys through BCJuly 17, 2017
With nine professional races over 10 days, BC Superweek attracts some of the top pro-cyclists from across North America, and the world.
Photo: National Women's Team, New Zealand Cycling
For the first time in race history, the New Zealand national road track endurance team joined in on the action. Lodging at Fortius for the duration of the competition, we had the opportunity to sit down with a couple of the coaches to learn more about their journey.
While you can usually find them training in Europe, Cycling New Zealand decided to change their plans this year.
"The draw was really 10 days of hard racing against some of the top teams," shared Jono Hailstone, Cycling New Zealand coach. "BC offers shorter, harder races compared to the longer races we see in Europe."
Logistically, the trip to Canada made sense for the team.
"It reminds us of New Zealand," laughed Coach Matt Shallcrass. "But really, the people are so friendly and welcoming, and we really love the city."

Traveling from across the world, Cycling New Zealand was looking for accommodations that would allow them to minimize travel and maximize their training.
"To have everything all in one space is really critical," shared Shallcrass.
"It's a much different atmosphere than a hotel. We see athletes all around us and it provides a really good energy."
Photo cred: Poco Grand Prix – Men's Podium, Cam Stewart, Cycling New Zealand earns 1st place
There was no shortage of energy on the road either. The men's team took home 1st at both the Giro di Burnaby and Poco Grand Prix, and 3rd at the New West Grand Prix. The women's team also took a 1st and 3rd at the Tour de Delta, and another 3rd at the Poco Grand Prix.
When asked if they would come back for BC Superweek next year, the answer was unanimous.
"We will be back."
Train here, stay here

MEP Kati Piri, in a draft report, calls on EU leaders to meet Turkey in a Summit to clarify their relationship
European Parliament Rapporter on Turkeys accession talks, will proposes to the EP a report that calls for the investigation of all irregularities of the recent referendum, and suggests EU member states met with Turkey as soon as possible in a Summit to discuss the obvious crisis in EU-Turkey relations that we are faced with, while suggests the freezing of pre-accession funds.
More specifically the draft "calls on the Commission to take into account the latest developments in Turkey when conducting the mid-term review of the IPA-funds in 2017 and to suspend all per-accession funds if Turkey no longer sufficiently complies with the EU's Copenhagen criteria".
The report says that the EP "regrets that the accession instruments have not been used to the fullest and that over the years Turkey's full integration into the EU lost public support on both sides; remains committed to cooperate and maintain an open dialog with the Turkish government, in order to address common challenges; recommends the Council to urgently invite the Turkish government for a Summit to discuss the obvious crisis in EU-Turkey relations that we are faced with".
Commenting on the referendum process and Turkeys conduct, the report "condemns strongly recent statements by President Erdogan, accusing some EU leaders of 'Nazi practices' and warns that the continuation of such unwarranted statements undermines Turkey's credibility as a political partner; notes with concern the reports about alleged pressures on members of the Turkish diaspora living in Member States and condemns Turkish authorities surveillance of citizens with dual nationalities abroad; is concerned about the cancellation of a large number of passports, which leave people stateless".
Kati Piri also notes that issue of the visa is important for the Turkish population and will enhance people to people contacts and therefore encourages the Turkish government "to comply with the last outstanding criteria, including revision of its anti-terrorism legislation".
The report is also says that "measures taken under the state of emergency had large-scale, disproportionate, and long-lasting negative effects on the protection of fundamental freedoms in the country; condemns the collective dismissal of civil servants, the mass liquidation of media outlets, the arrests of journalists, academics, judges, human rights defenders, elected officials and ordinary citizens, the confiscation of property and passports on the basis of emergency decree laws without individualized decisions, and without the possibility of timely judicial review".
Furthermore the report suggests an independent evaluation of all claims regarding irregularities and "notes the remarks of the Venice Commission on the constitutional reform and underlines that proposed constitutional amendments do not respect fundamental principles of the separation of powers and sufficient checks and balances, and are not in line with Copenhagen criteria".
The report also strongly condemns the violations of freedom of expression and the serious infringements on media freedom, including the disproportionate bans of media sites and social media and "notes with concern the closure of around 170 media outlets – including almost all Kurdish language media outlets – and the jailing of more than 150 journalists".
Finally the report suggests that the EU should be "concerned that judges and prosecutors continue to be under strong political pressure and that many were dismissed or arrested; calls on Turkey to restore and implement all legal guarantees to ensure full respect for the independence of the judiciary including amending the law on the High Council of Judges and Prosecutors (HSYK) in order to reduce the executive's influence within the Council".

How to attain Justin Trudeau's fitness level
Want to build core body strength like Canadian PM Justin Trudeau? We bring you the expert's guidehealth-and-fitness Updated: Apr 07, 2016 19:59 IST
Just when you think you cannot be more in awe of Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, an image of him doing the incredibly tough yoga pose — Mayurasan (peacock pose) goes viral. The image sees Trudeau supporting his entire weight on his arms and wrists, on the edge of a table. Looks tough? It is.
To perfect it, one requires a strong core (torso and abdominal muscles), an athletic build, and a sound mind. While Trudeau seems to have checked all the boxes (with help from his yoga instructor wife, Sophie Grégoire, we assume), you may need to take things a bit slowly before you start clearing out the table. We get Santosh Kumar Pandey, a yoga guru and founder of Shenmen Healing Centre, Santacruz (W), to give you the beginner's guide to a robust, Mayurasan-ready physique:

In a word, everything. Everything that can fit in small clear bags should go in clear bags.
When you're organizing all of your belongings into boxes, only the big things should go into the boxes without an additional layer of packing. Bags can keep small items together, especially if you need them to stay in sets once you get to your new home. It also stops a layer of debris from falling to the bottom of your boxes and becoming a chore to pick through. If you don't want to stow everything away in its own packaging, make sure you do it for at least these six things.
1. Silverware
If you move them into a bag, you know they're clean when you get to the other side. If you also wrap them together, all you have to do is put them back in the drawer.
2. Toiletries
Toiletries leak. Shampoo, toothpaste, and lotion can all coat the box of whatever they're thrown in with. Whether you're putting them in a box or packing them in an overnight bag, protect everything else around them.
3. Socks and underthings
Fishing socks and underthings out of a big box can be annoying. If you have small drawers that don't need a box for themselves, put everything in bags so you can open and dump them later.
4. Everything in your junk drawer
5. Pens, pencils, and office supplies
6. Everything in the drawers of your bedside tables, desks, and tables.
Anytime you're dealing with miscellaneous items, put them in a bag. Small things will fall down to the bottom, and it's hard to know if you really meant to keep them.
Sorting things in bags and labelling them lets you just dump the contents into the right spot later.

The UN Security Council on Thursday canceled its authorization for a seven-month-old NATO military operation in Libya that led to the ouster and death of Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi.
The termination of the mandate came despite a request from Libya's interim government for the Security Council to wait until the National Transitional Council made a decision on whether it wants NATO to help it secure its borders.
The 15-nation council unanimously approved a resolution terminating the UN mandate, which set the no-fly zone over Libya and permitted foreign military forces, including NATO, to use "all necessary measures" to protect Libyan civilians.
The resolution said the UN authorization for foreign military operations in Libya will lapse at 11:59 p.m. local Libyan time (2159 GMT) on Oct. 31.
Britain's UN Ambassador Mark Lyall Grant welcomed the unanimous vote, telling reporters it "marks a really important milestone in the liberation of Libya."
Russian Ambassador Vitaly Churkin, who repeatedly accused NATO of overstepping its UN mandate to protect civilians, also welcomed the move to end foreign military intervention in Libya. Moscow co-sponsored the resolution.
Although the resolution does not specifically refer to NATO, the alliance's legal mandate to carry out the air strikes that enabled Libyan rebel forces to defeat Gaddafi's troops was supplied by Security Council resolution 1973, adopted in March.
The NTC officially announced Libya's liberation on Oct. 23, days after the capture and death of Gaddafi.
Libyan Deputy UN Ambassador Ibrahim Dabbashi asked the council on Wednesday to wait before terminating the mandate.
Dabbashi said the government needed time to assess the security situation in its country and its ability to monitor its borders.
Western diplomats, however, said council members did not want to wait. They said issues such as Libya's border security fell outside the UN mandate to protect civilians and enforce a no-fly zone.
A NATO official in Brussels, however, said member states of the alliance were free to give further security aid to Libya individually.
The resolution does not lift the arms embargo or other UN sanctions on Libya that have been in place for half a year.
The Security Council on March 17 authorized a no-fly zone and foreign military intervention to protect Libyans from security forces Gaddafi had deployed to suppress pro-democracy uprisings across the country.

Disaster Artist, James Franco and Tommy Wiseau may not appear to have much in like manner: the previous is an Oscar-designated on-screen character, an executive, an author and an occasionally educator, while the last is the secretive and impossible to miss maker of the disasterious clique great The Room. One's an insider, the other's a pariah. Franco is from California, while Wiseau's beginnings are obscure. In any case, turns out that he and Wiseau share more than an adoration for James Dean: they both landed in L.A. around a similar time bearing in mind the end goal of getting to be on-screen characters, went to acting classes in the Valley, ate at Ernie's Taco House, and found how difficult it can be to break into Hollywood.
At the point when did you first observe The Room?
I was late to the diversion on The Room. There was an announcement that Tommy [Wiseau] paid for himself to have up on Highland [in Los Angeles] for a long time, and it was him with a lethargic eyelid kind of glaring down at you, and it said The Room. And afterward there was a telephone number, and it resembled, "What? What film has a telephone number on it?"
I just dependably thought it was this irregular religion, or some odd L.A. thing, similar to, "Call the number, and this insane, bizarre vampire can be in your motion picture, or something." And then the book [The Disaster Artist] turned out four years back. The Disaster Artist was composed by one of alternate performing artists in it, Greg Sestero, who my sibling [Dave Franco] plays in our film, and this person Tom Bissell. I'm similar to the main person that went to The Room through a book. I began perusing the book, and before I was part of the way through, I just knew. It was such an amazing, peculiar story, not at all like some other Hollywood story, however underneath, it was so widespread and moving, in light of the fact that it's the narrative of outcast specialists endeavoring to accomplish their fantasies.
Along these lines, at that point I went to a screening. I was in Vancouver at the time, chipping away at The Interview with Seth [Rogen][Disaster Artist], and I went to a midnight screening in Vancouver, and it was unimaginable. It was an occasion; there are spoons, and footballs, and tuxedos, and everybody shouting at the screen, and bunches of weed. It was simply staggering.
At the point when did you initially meet Tommy?
I learned I needed to get the privileges of the book, as well as I needed to get Tommy and Greg's life rights. Thus the first occasion when I at any point conversed with Tommy was on the telephone to get his life rights, and I resembled, "Good, what's up, man?" I would not like to recommend that I play him on the off chance that he didn't care for that thought. I had no clue what he was going to think about that and I didn't have the agreement yet, so I was exceptionally timid. He goes, "Along these lines, who, so who play me?" And I resembled, "Well, I don't, psh, I don't know Tommy, I don't have the foggiest idea." And he resembles, "Well, how 'session Johnny Depp?" And I chuckled. He was promptly, similar to, "Why are you giggling?"
What's more, I'm similar to, "Well, Johnny Depp resembles the greatest motion picture star on the planet. I don't have the foggiest idea." And he resembled, "Now, we go, we backpedal to some time recently. I said Johnny Depp and you giggle. Why you giggling?" I'm similar to, I'm similar to, "Okay, Tommy, I'll ask Johnny Depp. We'll check whether he'll do it." And he resembles, "Better believe it, you don't go down that street, you don't know toward the finish of rear way, you know?" And I'm similar to, "Exceptionally shrewd, Tommy. Better believe it, exceptionally savvy."
How could you wind up playing him in the film?
I didn't realize that Tommy was a gigantic James Dean fan, yet I figure Tommy had viewed my TV motion picture of James Dean ordinarily. Greg goes, "How 'session you, James?" And despite everything i'm kind of timid, and like, "Well, better believe it, maybe…" – and Tommy goes, "No doubt, James, I seen your stuff. You know, you benefit a few things, you do some terrible things." I'm similar to, "Affirm, much obliged, better believe it. Originating from you, Tommy, much obliged, man."
