Castle Review: "Law & Murder"
Castle continued its steady roll of enjoyable and entertaining installment with "Law & Murder."
The hour revolved around a poisoned juror on a high profile murder case that provided the usual and anticipated twists and turns. Sometimes, these can be overwhelming, but the murder here played out pretty smoothly.
As entertaining as the case was, having some outside stories could have helped the episode a bit.
Delivering some personal arcs to the secondary characters would really add another layer to this hit show. We know Castle and Beckett; let us get to know Esposito, Ryan, and even Lanie.
Case in point: the tease of Esplanie. They are this hot new couple.... so let us actually see them interacting. Ryan is super sweet, give him some screen time with his new fiance. Don't get me wrong, I still want my Caskett front and center, but I wouldn't be disappointed to see the others get some action.
Just last week I mentioned how badly Alexis is in need of her own arc. What do you know? We finally got it, sort of. Castle used his GPS app to track down a lying Alexis in Williamsburg. I was trying to take a guess in my notes: secret boyfriend? Pregnant? Drugs? Anything exciting? Turns out I was wrong.
Alexis had reported back to the scene of her friends' crime of shoplifting to pay for stolen clothes. This was a step in the right direction of character development, just not a full step forward.
Some other thoughts...
- Loved that Castle's background of his phone is his own book cover.
- How awesome was Castle trying to get Alexis and Martha to go see Forbidden Planet with him?
- Even more awesome? Beckett wanting to see the same movie. Can you say date night?
What did you think, TV Fanatics? Was "Law & Murder" up to Castle standards? Sound off now.

I thought it was ridiculous that Castle was made out to be a bad guy for monitoring his daughter when he knew she was lying about her whereabouts. In reality, a cop like Becket would know what kind of things can happen to a young girl in a big city who isn't where she is supposed to be. And when she comes back he lets her scold him for breaking HER trust? What about the part where she was lying about where she was? I would have expected her to be grounded. Am I the only one who thinks that whole thing was ridiculous?

For somes reasons (!) I know it was the brother... Too bad. Did you notice Castle bring coffee to Beckett everyday ! The end was nice too.

I love the way that Castle is waiting patiently in the backgroud for his opportunity to woo is way into Becketts heart. He's waiting for his chances and he took the opportunity last night to slowly work his way in. Love it! Castle, you are the master. Better to be subtle than forceful.

Thanks to DVR, I paused the show right before Alexis made her confession. I turned to my husband and said, "brace yourself-- this is going to be one of the lamest confessions ever." We all know Alexis is a genuinely good kid, and I wouldn't have it any other way. While she does need more story arcs, I wouldn't want them to come at the price of her admirable maturity and adorable relationship with her dad (who has a right to be a parent, for what it's worth).

Even better than Beckett wanting to see the same movie? Castle pretending he's never heard of it. Awesome.

Yes, I thought it was up to their standards, and it was nice to see that Ryan and Esposito had already anticipated and performed every action Beckett told them to take. She has smart, well-trained guys working for her. I just would like to see them allowed to question suspects a bit more often. I think they could do it.
It was nice to see the Captain take an active role in this investigation; it was a given that he was wearing a wire. He is so upright that he could be used to measure angles on a building project. He would never succumb to bribery. Everyone, including Lanie, contributed to the solution of these two killings.
It was interesting to see the question raised, but to not be beaten over the head with it, about whether or not it was immoral to frame the black defendant for the first murder. One wonders what the DA planned to suggest as a solution to the second murder, had anyone not choked on the frame for the first one? Frame the black cousin of the first defenda

The bombings in Boston brought to mind familiar images from past American tragedies and its wars abroad. But why are we still shocked?
The professionalisation of entrepreneurs in violence into a legitimate 'private security' industry provokes profound questions for state-citizen relations. Who has the power to hold these companies accountable, and how?
The author responds to comment on his piece on the American radical right, arguing that the use of violence is profoundly un-American, despite being a part of the country's history and daily life.
Western analysts often and articulately point out why the United States fears Iran. But what does Iran have against the United States? Do we understand why Iran is taking such a belligerent course?
The United States's "remote control" campaign against Islamist targets is intensifying. But behind the headlines, the transnational diffusion of al-Qaida's idea is just as potent.
The Newtown school shooting has re-awakened debates not only on gun control and mental illness, but also on the role of law enforcement in detecting and eliminating emerging threats. Quietly emerging is a solution that means not more guns, but more militarization.
To a large extent Petraeus, four star general and chief spy, was a political and media invention. Take a closer look at the Petraeus record and a spectre starts to appear: of just how blind love can be.
Over the past 30 years, American culture has increasingly drawn from the military model. Now, as even military pensions and health care are outsourced and privitized, what will be the fate of social welfare in America?
The United States and Israel see armed drones as a valuable tool of "remote control". But Iran, China and Russia - and non-state actors - are working to achieve their own capacity. The emerging era is one of drone proliferation.
The war on terror has focused many discussions on the identity of the perceived perpetrators. These debates fail to incorporate how victims of terrorism are themselves denied their voice.
The incidence of targeted social violence in the central American country is a growing political concern as presidential elections approach, finds Matt Kennard in Tegucigalpa.
The geopolitical scramble to exploit the resource wealth unearthed by climate change exposes enduring classic realist tensions in an era of common global security concerns.
A lax recruitment policy has allowed neo-Nazi and other extremists to enter the United States army. The violent consequences are increasingly being felt in the domestic arena, says Matt Kennard.
Unless strong political leadership and decisive diplomatic efforts are quickly shown on all sides, war between the US and Iran will become increasingly probable due to the elimination of all other policy options.
A pressure-cooker mix of electoral, technical and diplomatic factors is shaping the potential for conflict over Iran.

At the beginning of the 19th century, Napoleon's forces controlled much of Europe. In Russia, one of the few countries still unconquered, the army prepares to face Napoleon's troops in Austria. Among the soldiers are Nicholas Rostov and Prince Andrei Bolkonsky. Pierre Bezukhov, a friend of Andrei's and self-styled intellectual who "knows what's right but still does wrong," is not interested in fighting. Pierre's life changes when his father dies, leaving him a vast inheritance. He is attracted to Natasha Rostov, Nicholas's sister, but gives in to baser desires and marries the shallow, materialistic Princess Helene. The marriage quickly ends when Pierre discovers his wife's true nature. Andrei is captured and later released by the French, and returns home only to watch his wife die in childbirth. During a visit to the country months later, Pierre and Andrei meet again. Andrei sees Natasha and falls in love, but his father will only permit the marriage if they postpone it for one year. While Andrei is away in Poland on a military mission, Natasha is drawn to Anatole Kuragin, a scoundrel and libertine. Pierre tells Natasha of Anatole's past before she can elope with him. Napoleon invades Russia. Pierre visits Andrei on the eve of the battle, and observes the battle that follows. Traumatized by the carnage, he vows to kill Napoleon himself. —IMDb
King Wallis Vidor (February 8, 1894 – November 1, 1982) was an acclaimed American film director whose career spanned nearly seven decades.
He was born in Galveston, Texas, where he survived the great Galveston Hurricane of 1900. His grandfather, Charles Vidor, was a refugee of the Hungarian Revolution of 1848 who settled in Galveston in the early 1850s.
A freelance newsreel cameraman and cinema projectionist, he made his debut as a director in 1913 with Hurricane in Galveston. In Hollywood from 1915, he worked on a variety of film-related jobs before directing a feature film, The Turn in the Road, in 1919. A successful mounting of Peg o' My Heart in 1922 got him a long term contract with Goldwyn Studios, later to be absorbed into MGM. Three years later he made The Big Parade, among the most acclaimed war films of the silent era, and a tremendous commercial success. This success established him as one of MGM's top studio directors for the next decade. In 1928, Vidor received… read more
A "faithful" adaptation of Tolstoy's sweeping epic is not the sole intent. The joy in being a spectator is Vidor's attempt at forcing a grand russian novel into a hollywood epic. What we get is a series of beautifully composed moving paintings. This film shows an artist at it's core. A fine work filled with success and failure, and yet still a marriage of all things cinematic. fuckin' amazing.
This is a very bold statement, but I think that if "War and Peace" were the only film ever made, I would be a very happy man.
"War and Peace is a meditation on the wonders of happiness, sadness, love and war, freedom, destiny, mind and matter, and much else. We cycle through emotions; through summer, winter, spring and fall; and, not least, through sensibilities: young persons, old persons, a demonic Napoleon, equally demonic lovers, each alternately subject and object, actor and toy, as their emotions take control of them and they search for solutions. One scene we are Natasha looking at Andrei; the next scene we are Andrei gazing at Natasha. (Solely in terms of the technical skill with which Vidor constantly insinuates us into one mind and out of another, War and Peace is fascinating.) We meditate on a face, on colours, on geometries of movement. Not only does each of the characters endure one painful or ecstatic peregrination after the next, but all the while they rhapsodise over what is happening to them ("Who am I now?"). Always there is the duality: the distance of a novelesque character, the immediacy of the actress; the exalted spirituality of experience, the incredible carnality of its expression. To watch Natasha run from the stairs to the parlour (to Andrei who declares his love) is to recall the similar way Jean Renoir's adolescent girls dance toward life in The River (1950), but is also to glimpse a fashion of deportment as exotic as Japanese No theatre. The moments, at the ball, of Natasha's transition from inner monologue wishing Andrei were there ("Prince Andrei", she always says) to her realization that he is standing in front of her, and the strange poise with which she then extends her hand, capture a mode of being rare in the world of today." -Tag Gallagher

Members have recently submitted several inquiries about guidelines, criteria, and clinical pathways for many cardiovascular conditions. The questions mainly surround heart failure, chest pain, atrial fibrillation, AMI/ PCI, and cardiac surgery.
Given the importance of standardizing CV operations across the care continuum and the growing concern over delivering the most appropriate treatments for patients, the Roundtable has compiled a number of helpful resources and sample CV pathways for our members' use.
We've collected three types of pathways organized by condition.

Reducing the use of drug-eluting stents (DES) in patients at low risk of restenosis would lead to significant cost savings with minimal increase in target vessel revascularization (TVR), according to a new retrospective analysis of the National Cardiovascular Data Registry (NCDR)-CathPCI published in the Archives of Internal Medicine.
This research contributes to the growing body of evidence supporting a risk-based, individualized approach to utilization of DES versus bare-metal stents (BMS) during percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).

Patients with a history of atherosclerotic ischemic stroke should be considered to be at high risk for subsequent cardiovascular disease (CVD), in particular, coronary heart disease (CHD), according to a new joint scientific statement released by the American Heart Association (AHA) and American Stroke Association (ASA).
These recommendations—the first U.S. guidelines to include stroke as a risk factor for coronary events—may require re-evaluation of current risk prediction algorithms and significantly increase the population of patients considered to be at high CV risk.

Topsy Turvies in My Classroom
A letter to Herbert Kohl
Dear Mr. Kohl,
Funny that you call it a topsy-turvy. I had to come up with a similar paradigm-shift as a new teacher, and called it a "complete 180" because I felt I needed to learn from my students if I was to succeed during my second year. I chuckled to myself with recognition as I read about Julia, the student who heard you encourage the class to make mistakes but didn't believe you. The way you tell the story, you were practicing as you preached, so in your class Julia learned to be a headstrong and opinionated student. You created a welcoming space where she felt safe to challenge you (and the state test!) when a test-day reality did not conform to her feminist values. I have been in similar situations where I spent class time paying lip-service to a principle, only to have students find all the inconsistencies in my application of it. For example, once I made an offhanded response to a (very helpful and community-minded, for the record) student who was asking for extra help before school: I would help him with his math if he would help me put some books away. My words, thrown out so carelessly because I was in a hurry, caused him to stop short. He reappraised me with his gimlet eye before informing me, "Jessica that is a low level of moral development to say that. Is almost like to do something only to get something back."

I remember the logo development. I do not think that inner glow is working for it. Oh, and can you make the logo bigger please? Seriously, the large header contains a lot of competing elements, might look into simplifying or compartmentalizing some of that.
The black bar at the bottom with all the controls almost feels lost. Perhaps another color or a size increase will help draw attention there.
The script font down there is interesting, but the italic serif for the quote feels out of place. Overall it feels like there's still a brand identity crisis. Pull things together, you're on the verge of a system of sorts.

I wish I could use my magic mouse to scroll through the bottom horizontal nav without using the arrows.

Some thoughts/feedback:
- I think things are a bit bigger because of use on a tablet? On a desktop that whole footer panel things like icons, nav items, etc are a bit too big like folks said already. Is there anyway to make those things scale depending on device instead of browser window size?
- Dog-earMay 3, 12, 8:55 a.m. – Permalink

- Maybe even make the thumbnail nav a bit smaller.
- I don't understand the purpose of the OPEN/CLOSE button of the thumbnail NAV. So you get to see an extra 200 pixels of background image? I'd get rid of that, it doesn't serve a real functional purpose and just confuses users.
- Thumbnail NAV left and right arrows: The rollover state has a drop shadow on a gray button. It just looks like it's blurring the button. Get rid of the drop shadow and just make it turn white.
- Thumbnail NAV: It would be nice if I could use my scroll wheel to scroll horizontally for that instead of having to use a button. I'd imagine tablets would like the same functionality but with using swiping.
- Too many fonts :) Way too many. Make the focus less on text and let the imagery shine (while still allowing the information to be easily read and digested)
- Move the Search box thingy up more, just about all the way up to the top.
- Shrink the logo. Tell them no if they say make it bigger.
- In the main navigation it says "Come See Me" and when you rollover it you see a link to see the FULL SCHEDULE. Why is that hidden? I'd imagine that's probably one of the things that users will want to find. Make it easily accessible. Make it part of the main nave.
- Overall, I think the slides and transitions look good. However, I find navigating around the site a bit difficult. To the average internet user, I'd think it could probably be fairly tricky for them.
- The "ME" section. Drop the mic and bike thing down. Make those items that you can click on SCREAM, hey check this stuff out. I'd imagine downloading an app or promo photos being something fairly important.
- I'd move that footer up top because it feels more like a main NAV instead of a footer.
I'd offer up suggestions on how to fix the design, even if you're only the developer. Just tell them that you had it critiqued by folks on a website called cue-be-en. If they say no, say OK.
Oh yeah, they're in Philly 215. Me too.

- Don't like how the black panel slides out half way but then keeps small portions of everything else on screen. It looks cluttered. Maybe get rid of the dark panel and make the music player and gray play list slide up overtop the background image but behind the thumb nail navigation. Maybe add a vertical scroller if needed.

Most guests find this to be the right answer. If you prefer to skip the dirt, a shuttle is always a possibility.

Guest Trip Reviews
This was the most incredible vacation I have ever taken and I have been promoting Backroads since returning home! Each day brought wonderful and unique experiences. Never having taken a trip like this, I did not know what to expect and now cannot believe I waited this long to try a group trip like this one. My husband and I plan to take many more trips with Backroads in the future.- Cherry Hill, NJ
Great trip! Good bike routes, wonderful food and accommodations, very friendly people, and incomparable leaders and drivers. The friends we made were icing on the cake.- Ann Arbor, MI
What can I say but fantastic! Our support drivers were SO crucial to our good time. They kept us hydrated, fed and happy. Since my first travels with Backroads 11½ years ago, I have been constantly talking about the company with other people. I have never had such great vacations as I have had with Backroads.- Fort McMurray, AB
This was a great trip from top to bottom. The leaders and van support were just terrific. Thank you for the beautiful birthday party and the gift that our leaders arranged. It was beautiful. Our whole family had the time of our lives.- Los Gatos, CA
As usual, we had a great time on our Costa Rica trip. The leaders were real cheer leaders for the country and the places we visited. We feel very fortunate that we were able to see and experience places in the country not frequented by the ordinary tourist. The lodging was extraordinary and each place had its own unique quality. We admire your ability to search out the unusual for your guests. Our leaders made us feel like real champs and that's a good way to feel.- Franklin Lakes, NJ
We loved the whole experience, it really met all our expectations, we're still dreaming about it!- Ann Arbor, MI
Great trip, wonderful guides far beyond my expectations. I am excited to take my next trip with my grown children so they can have this experience. It was the perfect start to my husband's retirement. Thank you.- Edmonton, CAN
Visiting this area of Costa Rica at this time of the year was perfect!-Marblehead, MA
Excellent trip with wonderful experiences I wouldn't have done without Backroads. The add-ons (boat tour, selection of lunch spots, stop at animal sanctuary) were absolutely amazing experiences that made the trip extra-special. The rides were also incredible with beautiful scenery.-Orlando, FL

The internet is a great source of ideas about living a meaningful life. Some people have developed their approaches into somewhat of an art form. In this post I consider some of the ideas that have come about over the past 5 – 10 years online about what it means to live your life. I've also linked to what I think is the premiere blog about living an awesome life as a student, and beyond to when you think about a career.
A big focus online has been productivity, and blogs about how to do more faster and better have mushroomed. One approach that captured people's productive hearts and minds is Getting Things Done, or GTD. Started by David Allen, GTD suggests that you organise your life by getting everything out of your brain and into a system. This frees up your brain to think, rather than remember. The system can be complex, so I recommend having a look at his book called Getting Things Done. The best thing I've taken from this is the notion of an inbox where you chuck everything to be sorted through daily. I don't normally get it done daily, but at least I know where anything I've lost will be. Also GTD focuses on actions. So when you sort through your stuff, you pick out the actions to be done. It's a nice approach, and one that has some good takeaways in it.
The counter-productivity culture sprang up almost simultaneously, although the line between both is somewhat blurred. Allen would argue that his complex system leads to more simplicity and time to enjoy life. Zen Habits has some fantastic ideas about living a simple life, although he sometimes seems to write stuff just for the hell of it – like a 'top 5 ways to do X'. A Zen Habits approach to productivity is listing the three big things you want to get done that day, and then doing them. I like it, and I like it even more when used with some ideas from GTD. Whatever approach you take it seems to involve some discipline, and a fair chunk of experimentation. I'm still mucking around with the way I do things, and I suspect I always will.
When it comes to studying, philosophy, productivity and the meaning of work, Cal Newport at Study Hacks is my favourite writer. He started off focusing on how to do well at school and university. There is a huge back catalogue of blog posts about techniques, tools and approaches to student life. Some are very practical, some are more ethereal and conceptual. As his career progressed (he's no longer a 'student' but a Post-Doc at MIT) his ideas progressed. He now writes about careers, and how to craft the career and life that you want. I appreciate his approach to life, and his focus on enjoyment while recognising that you need to work hard to be 'so good they can't ignore you' if you really want to get the kind of career you want.
These are three different takes on life, what do you think?

Home Citizens Against Ugly Street Spam
I'm ruthless when it comes to street spam. I hardly give anybody a break. Realators, politicians, roofers, restaurants, I treat them all the same. BUT, I do have a heart. I don't remove garage sales signs until the weekend is over and as an amimal lover, I don't remove lost pet signs. Do you give ANYBODY a break?
I'd give most lost pet and yard sale signs a pass."Open House" barricades need to stay out of the sidewalk path or street or I've been known to stop and chuck the sign to the curb out of the way. Most every corner curb here is wheelchair accessible unless there is an Open House sign placed in the middle of the sidewalk. Same goes to shopkeepers' barricade signs in town, if it's in the path of foot traffic, *bump* it falls over and gets picked up and put out of the way.
Darn garage salers don't ever come back and get their signs. If they are up on a post or the ROW, they get tossed like all the others.
I don't mess with the political signs here, they have "special privileges", everything else gets tossed.MikeMaking a positive difference!
If the doggy is cute, and some little girls, I might wait a couple days but another abused pit bull or some little chiwawa, Sorry your history.

Los Angeles Review of Books |
Lauren Eggert-Crowe interviews Miranda July Want Ads: An Interview with Miranda July August 14th, 2012 |
IN THE SUMMER of 2009, Miranda July was working on the screenplay for her long-awaited second feature film, The Future, but was mired in writer's block — the kind that besieges most of us who are daily distracted by the internet's shiny boxes. Looking for a different form of distraction, July took to reading the PennySaver, a circular of classified ads that arrived each Tuesday with her junk mail. The advertised items ranged from hairdryers to baby jaguars, but there was little information about the sellers — aside from their phone numbers. Fascinated by the mysterious people behind these random objects, she decided to traverse Los Angeles and interview a selection of sellers about their lives, their hopes, their dreams and fears. It was a fantastical procrastination project, one that she secretly hoped would reveal to her the answer for how to finish her screenplay. These interviews became the book It Chooses You, a collection of narratives, interviews, and personal essays reflecting the various Los Angeleses within the city. (The block quotes below are from the book, released in paperback earlier this month.)
Miranda July: The second you step out of the usual ways that you connect, you become self-aware of connecting, and so maybe it becomes more of a topic. The idea of class, and different L.A.s inside L.A., was sort of unavoidable, and I wasn't trying to avoid it. I was going straight towards it. Craigslist vs. the PennySaver was an obvious way to talk about that and think about it. That's familiar to everyone. I'm interested in forcing myself to not just critique what's there but to try and see what's not there. The internet is what it is, and we each have our own struggle with it. But since this moment is pretty ephemeral, this particular time where not everyone is on it, but most of us are, it's a real harsh dividing line. When you stop on the other side of it, it's like you're in another era. It's like living without a phone. If there's any theme of my process, it's generally to go towards what's uncomfortable, or things that I'm not even certain are there, or are anything at all. MJ: Some transgender pronoun savvy people have pointed out, "Why are you calling him, 'he' when he's a woman?" And it's true. I should have thought about that more. But I wasn't really sure what the right term was. So I just called him "him." And I learned that he now goes by Suzette, and is a "she." That's really different from when we met. So it made me feel like I sort of caught him at the end of his "he" pronoun. It wouldn't be appropriate now to reflect who he is, but it makes sense for the book, and there's a footnote now in the softcover edition. MJ: I go to estate sales, which I often find through the PennySaver. Often, those take you somewhere really far away. I sometimes say, "Okay, let's say you have to eat here. What is your best option?" And even though I eat really healthily in my normal life, where I have a lot of control over everything, I actually really enjoy the feeling of being forced to eat some weird meal in a place I've never been before. That's the feeling that makes you feel like you're far away. And maybe it's actually weirdly delicious just because of the different standards. The feeling of dislocation is liberating because you're not in your usual place. You don't have to have your usual anxieties. You're not procrastinating on your usual things. And that's the relief. That's what's liberating to me. [In Los Angeles], it's so easy to get the feeling that you went somewhere far away, just by exploring. And that's a thing my husband and I do: "Let's just go in that direction!" I do so much associate that with L.A. It's almost embarrassing that I still think the PennySaver is cool. I didn't get over it. On Valentine's Day, they always do this thing where they run people's messages. They're all different but they're all kind of heartbreaking just by virtue of the fact that they're not ironic; each one of these people thought it was the most romantic thing in the world to put their message in the PennySaver. Mothers to children, husbands and wives, new love, all different kinds of messages. I went through it and whited out all the names and replaced them with my name and my husband's names. So all the different kinds of love are between us. It was part of his valentine. I was like, "Yeah, I know. The PennySaver. Again!" Still finding creative ways to make use of it. MJ: When I found out I was pregnant, all those thoughts went out the window. Now my thoughts about time have to do with days and weeks. I think the anxiety is sort of a larger anxiety about being a working woman and having a kind of work that appears almost selfish and is, therefore, fragile. This has been a very happy time. I wouldn't have missed this for the world. I don't know what's coming, but this particular last bunch of months has been the first time in my life where I have just mostly felt okay. This part is not particularly intellectual, which is nice. I think I'm normally so "in my head," and [during pregnancy] your blood literally isn't there. So I still do my work but I realize that that's not what's being prioritized in my body. So I have to just go with that. It would be weird to resist that. People like to talk about how pregnancy is such a creative time! You can't just use that word! Just because I'm "creating" doesn't mean I'm being creative. I think the highs and lows and passions and obsessions and longings and sadnesses that make you want to write are kind of intellectual. So if that's not where you are. . . . I mean, I'm writing a lot, working on a novel, but it's a better time for structure and story, than for the kind of thing that connects us all. So I'm doing the things that seem to come easily at this time, that are not what I associate with writing. When you're writing fiction, you're always trying to "show, don't tell," but when you're writing a movie, you're just showing: "What's the most interesting way to show this thing?" And they're all basically short stories. You don't really have to concern yourself with the vast world of the novel. The writing doesn't need to be good in the same way. Or it's a different kind of good, you know? It needs to move in a certain way. Pacing is important in fiction too, but it's so much the blood of a movie. It really is. It's so different. The only thing that's the same is that with both, you're trying to feel free. You're trying to do things in a way you haven't done before, and a way you haven't seen before, but it's coming from something you've actually felt, at least on some current of realness. But as hard as it is writing fiction, and a whole different task discipline-wise, I do enjoy the fact that you can do anything. Especially because I make these low budget movies where the limitations are the main thing. It's nice to not be thinking about any of that and to feel like this could be as good as I am capable of. If it fails, it's completely because of me, and not because I hired the wrong person or I didn't have enough days. I mean, a movie fails also because of me, if it does, but I secretly know a bunch of things that would have helped. [Writing fiction] is kind of liberating. MJ: Someone just asked me for my address so she could send me a 'zine. It's been a long time since someone asked me that but it was really sweet. My 'zine was called Snarla, written with my best friend from high school. We were very literary in a way, but we weren't "cool." The 'zines weren't about bands. They were just about our feelings and learning how to write. I look back on that and see how it isn't that far removed from what I ended up doing. You can see the beginnings. ¤ Through subtle, quirky insights and understated humor, Miranda July's oeuvre has always explored the ways humans connect, or sometimes fail to connect. In everything she creates, she seems most concerned with reaching out while simultaneously reaching in; all three of her books have the word "you" in the title: No One Belongs Here More Than You, Learning to Love You More, and now, It Chooses You. In this last book, she explains, "All I ever really want to know is how other people are making it through life — where do they put their body, hour by hour, and how do they cope inside of it?" It is this drive that makes July's work — whether in film, fiction, or personal narrative — so compelling. Recommended Reads: |

Editor Fromthe
Recovery always makes for a great story. Coming back from the dead. Upsetting the odds. Remaking yourself. The lows in this business can be permanent. 'He never recovered from...' 'She became a pastiche of herself…' But there is also a good reason why the thick skin and selfconfidence, essential qualities in a politician, are not simple expressions of vanity. Those qualities let you cope when you're written off, dismissed as a no-hoper, a nobody. It can all be worth it because politics allows you to get up off the ground and still reach the top. Look at Lyndon Johnson, miserable and under-used as vice president under JFK. The latest volume of Robert Caro's epic work on Johnson's life has reached Britain and is getting the political addicts in a state of delirious excitement. We all know what fate had in store for the big Texan. In fact, less than five years later, after unexpectedly becoming the 36th US president, Johnson had already managed to fit enough into his presidential term to hit another low. But look in awe at his domestic record in power. Ed Miliband is obviously not Lyndon Johnson. But he's now showing signs of recovery from his own low. It is an incomplete process and his party is taking an uneven approach to opposing the coalition government. Reading Jim Pickard's essential cover profile of the Labour leader on p56, you pick up the hesitations and consensus-hunting that gets in the way of Miliband becoming a forceful alternative prime minister. However, with the government having had a poor spring, the idea of Ed Miliband in No 10 is being taken more seriously. But you'll understand his contradictions, and the work he has left to do, from Jim's superb piece. Talking about recovery, how relaxed does Andrew Lansley look in our interview on p52? Good god, he's beaming. A chilled-out, confident health secretary is now looking forward to what he really enjoys – putting his reforms into practice. Of course, those reshuffle rumours still swirl around him but it's quite some change from a couple of months ago.

Growth for everyone Britain needs a clear vision as to how government will work closely with business to make our firms strong, globally competitive and socially responsible. Chuka Umunna's analysis (TP, May) is exactly right: the government is led by the likes of Cameron and Osborne who cling to the tired old orthodoxies of the 1980s, which state that the best thing for government to do is to get out of the way of the market. The world has moved on and successful, forward-looking governments recognise that government has an active and intelligent role to play in making capitalism work for the majority. If Britain is to succeed and thrive, government needs to encourage the productive practices that many of our world class companies are adopting. An active industrial strategy needs to work with business to pursue long-term, socially responsible business strategies. Iain Wright MP Shadow competitiveness and enterprise minister
Directly-elected dictator? I have always found it odd why 'media profile' is a high priority for those people who prefer directly-elected mayors. The example of Alex Salmond is cited, but he was elected indirectly. Ken Livingstone had a high profile as the indirectly-elected leader of the GLC. What I am concerned about is that good decisions are taken that take cities and other areas forward. That does not require the election of a dictator. It would be better done through a more democratic system which ensures continual accountability. John Hemming MP Liberal Democrat MP for Birmingham Yardley
Bin and gone Far from demonstrating innovation, Eric Pickles' latest ramblings about weekly bin collections (TP, May) show how out of touch the Conservatives are. Councils cannot afford to take seriously the government's insane £250m fund to bring back weekly collections. The true cost to those that did would be millions. The whole idea is a misplaced attempt to be popular. It fails to stack up financially and is no longer on the agenda for most families. People have adjusted their routines. Recycling rates are higher than anyone could have imagined before Labour came to government in 1997. Any reversal now would be a retrograde step. Which unpopular move from history will Mr Pickles dig up next to score points? Throughout the article, Mr Pickles makes quips and jibes about important issues. Some might find that endearing – I find it alarming but totally unsurprising. Chris Willamson MP Shadow communities and local government minister
The pick of ONLINE comments from TotalPolitics.com u TotalPolitics' mental health week online had many of you getting in touch. In particular, political researcher Sadie Smith's account of her own depression, DepressionAnd AnxietyOnTheParliamentaryEstate,
attracted a lot of attention. Sophie said: "Politics is a difficult business, and those who work in it are just as susceptible to mental illness as any of us. I look forward to the day when our MPs are able to be more open about the strain their work puts on their mental health. No matter what the tabloids say, there's no shame in mental illness." Continuing on a similar theme, Nixxy commented on the piece TenLittle-KnownFactsAbout MentalHealth, saying: "It's interesting to see the correlation between some mental disorders and diseases and criminal activity, but again this can help enforce the stigma attached to others suffering the same conditions."
u Emma Burnell's piece It'sTime TheUKHadCompulsoryVoting got Samuel Palin going. He wrote that: "I think the level of participation in our democracy isn't sad, but participation isn't just about voting. I didn't vote in the one general election I was eligible to vote in, simply because none of the parties did enough to earn my vote… On the other hand, I regularly write to my MP, sign e-petitions, watch QuestionTime, and so on. In short, I think I'm an active participant in our parliamentary democracy." David Talbot disagreed with Emma's point. He said: "Good article, but the fact that it is fundamentally undemocratic to force people to vote. Voting is not a civil duty. It's a liberty. There's a difference. We will no longer have 'free' elections when we are not free to choose to boycott the elections."
u Responding to Duncan Brack's article BeingASpecialAdviserUnder TheCoalition, Richard Darlington (himself a former SpAd in the Labour government) said: "I agree that good government requires more, not fewer SpAds. My father was a SpAd in the Callaghan government and I served under both Blair and Brown. The role has certainly changed over the decades and it is interesting to read about how it has changed in coalition. I've always thought the title misleading – assuming that officials are 'normal' and SpAds are 'special'. But Thatcher's famous quote – 'advisers advise, ministers decide' – is most instructive. I am slightly surprised that in such a long article you didn't reflect on the case of Jeremy Hunt's SpAd, Adam Smith, though, who resigned just recently. Perhaps next time."
u Jamie Reed MP's blog David Cameron'sPetulanceWillCause HimLong-TermProblems divided readers. Alistair North felt the criticisms were borne of nothing but partisanship: "What have we here? Labour MP slags off a Conservative prime minister. How surprising." By contrast, Charles Turpin said: "Quite so, Jamie, and many of those who agree with you are on the Tory side. When will they get the necessary bottle to plunge in the knife?"
u Matt Andrews took issue with the figures in Ian Kirby's blog How I IntroducedDavidCameronTo AndyCoulson, saying that comparing a newspaper's readers to an MP's Twitter followers is "like comparing apples to oranges". He went on: "I agree that print newspapers are perhaps waning in their reach, but this doesn't mean you conveniently ignore the equivalent digital figures – especially when comparing them to other digital ones."

Tiger Woods PGA Tour 14 Demo Swings Onto Xbox 360, PS3 TodayAuthor: Ryan Winslett
published: 2013-03-05 14:22:28
If youre looking to get in a little time on the course before Tiger Woods PGA Tour 14 officially launches on March 23, then youll probably want to fire up your Xbox 360 or PlayStation 3 sometime today. The games demo is now available, and boy-howdy does it offer a nice chunk of content to sink your teeth into.
With the latest Tiger Woods game set to hit store shelves in just a couple of weeks but, starting today, the demo will allow virtual golfers to step into the shoes of an all-time great in Legends of the Majors mode, get a brief sampling of the LPGA offerings and even tackle a massive Connected Tournament with 24 other players. First up is the Legends of the Majors, a special mode that lets you play a round of golf with era-specific attire, equipment and skills. In the Tiger Woods 14 demo, players will be able to tackle a special challenge as Arnold Palmer set during the 1961 Open Championship at Royal Brikdale. If you manage to achieve the challenges goal, Palmer will then be made available as a playable character in the full version of the game. Youll also be able to try out the LPGA integration with this new demo, taking on a Quick Tournaments match at the new Oak Hill country Club as ladies phenomenon, Lexi Thompson. For those who are curious how the new Connected Tournaments mode will work, you can join up with a twenty-foursome to compete in an online tourney that allows you to see the shot arcs of all of your fellow players at the same time. Finally, this latest iteration of the Tiger Woods franchise will support motion controls, meaning youll be able to enjoy the demo with Kinect or the PlayStation Move controller. Back to top

AOL: What is your songwriting process like?
Jared Followill: A lot of the songs we had came from sound check and stuff like that. When we play at home, we play in the garage and stuff. We don't really go in the studio and write too much. Most of the songs come from us playing live together, and we definitely had kind of a live feel going on. We played in the studio -- it was really cool. It had like different color lights and stuff like that, smoke machines, a small version of Stonehenge.

No, Obama's reelection strategy isn't based on a smear campaign against Romney that hinges, in part, on calling him "weird." Mediaite pointed us to a retort from the president's adviser, David Axelrod, who made that clear on Morning Joe today. He dismissed the Politico report that made the smear claim as "garbage" and said that he would fire anyone on his staff who would call Romney weird. Axelrod said: "No one on my team believes that. And anyone who purports to be a source within the Obama camp who used that term and some of the other terms that were in that story...should be ripped out of whoever's Rolodex considers them sources, because that doesn't reflect our thinking." Whether Axelrod is backpedaling or setting the record straight, it's worth noting that most pundits were puzzled by the strategy: calling Romney "weird" seemed like code for taking a veiled swipe at Romney's Mormon faith.

The MessageCatalog "framework" is begging to be "extended." We've never been fond of the "weightiness" of the VisualWorks localizable text resource files, so we set out to do something a little different. ExtraCatalogs has just been replicated up to the Open Repository.
A while back Georg Heeg had made public some efforts to build VisualWorks translation tools (called L10N I think). ExtraCatalogs effort is complementary to that effort. ExtraCatalogs is simply an alternative way of maintaining message catalogs and resolving user messages to them. The tool(s) Georg posted concentrate on how to actually do translations.
ExtraCatalogs has the following features:
- Translations are stored in memory -- this means no thrashing between files. Just one initial load and everything runs along quite nice.
- Works with Existing User Messages -- These bolt right into MessageCatalog framework which searches all subclasses for matches. So nothing changes there.
- XLIFF export/import option -- This is an open standard, and it uses XML to keep buzzword bunnies happy. Which means that it also has standards for character coding issues. And is one file (as opposed to having to "compile" an idx file from a lbl file).
- Support for thread specific locales -- Some had indicated a desire to do something for server style applications, where the system may actually need to render mutiple concurrent localizations of a given user message. To facilitate this, catalogs can be "registred" under a specific locale (if none specified, they go to the current one). As well, a locale can be attached to a given process via Process>>useLocale:. The resolution engine will use this locale when specified, or the current when none is specified (no, this package does not add an instance variable to Process, it uses the process's 'environment' dictionary to store it--I wish PDP did this too).
- Unit Tests are included.
The code is free to use by anyone. It has some rough spots in the design still. Hopefully some time and usage will ferret these issues out, so any feedback/contributions is most welcome.
We played long and hard with the TMX file format (this had been mentioned by a couple different people). But TMX is a tool for translators to use, to move translation data between different translation programs. We attempted to use the TMX file to "short circuit" much of what is the normal process a translator goes through to translate a resource. While this would have been really snazzy, none of the translation tools are geared to deal with this kind of scenario. They use TMX files to translate your resources. After working with translators from a company or two, some vendors, and a mailing list or two, we deduced that the XLIFF file format was a better "open and standard" fit for what we were trying to do.
no, this package does not add an instance variable to Process, it uses the process's 'environment' dictionary to store it--I wish PDP did this too.
No you don't :-)
The precessenvironment has to be accessed while holding a lock, stepping through such code with PDP would deadlock if PDP needed to access the env too. In fact this is one of the problems PDP has and it has currently been "solved" by disabling various 'step' buttons when you don't have the top context selected in PDP.
I've been told there is this cultural divide where American shops will mark such a solution (disable buttons) as a fix while European shops tend to chalk it up as a bug.
