Hollywood has spoken: if you want to scare the bejeezus out of somebody, swap the chainsaw for a girl.
Seriously, just hop in your car, find a fourth grade gym class, pick out the best female crab-walker, and prepare to terrify everyone in your path. According to every horror film made in the last ten years, from 2002′s The Ring to new found-footage frightener VHS, ghosts are girl-children at least 99% of the time.
If you're a horror movie nerd like me, you've heard (or bloviated about) every last feminist or anti-feminist overtone in the horror genre. The icy murderous Hitchcock blonde. The bouncy, beautiful bimbette who can't run to [literally] save her life. The seriously mean mommy. The virgin…or whore…or person driving-while-female whose personal choices just drive inbred axe-wielders to do what inbred axe-wielders do best. The iconic Last Girl, surviving against all odds.
To live to see another Activia commercial.
The only running theme across the gamut of women in horror films has been breasts and regular periods. But thrown in amidst the babysitters, sorority girls, and Mom From E.T., there's been the occasional little girl, parachuted in films here or there for dramatic effect and maximum creepiness. Little girls are used to contrast with evil or surprise us by personifying it. The wee girl bringing out the best in Frankenstein's monster, even while we're certain somebody's getting accidentally drowned. The Exorcist's reluctant contortionist Regan. The Bad Seed's halo-ed hellion Rhoda.
Sure, there were girl ghosts…
…but the whole point of portraying any angelic or evil little girl in a movie was that we were to be worried for or horrified by a flesh and blood tween. Then 2002 happened and well…
…all of the sudden no auteur could think of any scarier device than an undead little girl. The well-dweller in The Ring. Flesh-eaters, background darters, short-statured sex workers. Every kind of ghastly girl appeared in dozens of flicks: Paranormal Activity, 30 Days of Night, The Orphan, Cabin in the Woods, The Walking Dead, Zombieland, VHS, and more.
Yes, there are plenty of wee boy baddies, too. The Omen. Salem's Lot. Children of the Corn. Village of the Damned. The Good Son. Check that list. It looks to me like, with the exception of 2004′s The Grudge, all the really epic boy baby villains peaked in the 70s and 80s. When the Carries and Rhodas and Regans and Sleepaway Camp Angelas were still exceptions rather than the rule.
Because the only thing I like more than horror movies is siphoning the fun from EVERYTHING, I have to ask: is the girl glut in modern horror a bad sign? There are several reasons for the glut but I have a hard time thinking of any that aren't sexist:
- "Wait, wait, wait. That GIRL is being scary/violent/creepy? REVOLUCION!"
- Loooooooooooooooooook at her purty long hair and how it flows behind her as she inexplicably runs across the floor behind you as you Skype [because we can't dress ghosts in sheets anymore without invoking Charlie Brown]. Scared, aren't you?!?!?
- "Scary children? But children are so innocent. Especially the kinds of children that will grow up to use tampons."
- "More women in film? Coming right up. Watch. There. Did you see her? No, not the one speaking…the one that just ran across the floor like a crab."
- "More women of color in film? How do you feel about very, very pale blue?"
*sigh* Now, strictly speaking, there are a lot of women in horror films. We could all dissect (ew) how they're treated, presented, and dressed, but we can't deny: they have played a lot of lead roles. But just because females are getting screen time, lurking around corners, confronting a foster kid who may or may not have poisoned the dog, doesn't mean they get to say much. And from where I sit, the more girl zombies and girl ghosts I see zipping through the background, the more male characters I see taking centerstage: sheriffs picking off zombies, boyfriends telling their girlfriends they're crazy for pointing out that this bitch is haunted, etc. So you know, male characters who get to give speeches, lead crusades, and–oh, I don't know–be characters.
What's your take, fellow horror nerds? Is there a weird phenomenon at play or it just my bone to pick?

They claim not to be, thus on the 9th of April 2011, 'The Do̷' clearly mastered to bring an almost unprecedented still sweet craziness to the rather calm Grand Duchy, throwing an amazingly vivid performance in the Rockhal, in front of more people than we are used to see on concerts here.
How did they do̷ it?
It was all at the same time, it was the lights, it was the wide range of instruments (or items used as such), it was the dressed up front girl, it was the movements and a great mélange of songs.

6 weeks 4 days ago | Surprisingly less angry about this game |
I am not a big basketball fan. I grew up watch Michigan football and that is the strongest conenctionf for me. I didn't live in AA nor did any of my family go to UM. It was just a cultural aspect I picked up before I even realized it. I watch Michigan football and hated Ohio State. By a weird twist of fate I ended up living and working in Columbus, Ohio. I have now stocked and nursed my hatred of OSU into a fine sharp point. And with all of the ups and downs of football have developed a somewhat tragic sense of life when it comes to sports. And so I was afraid to start carrying about Mcihigan basketball again (I got caught up in the Fab Five frensy while in college and paid the psychic cost when that all unraveled). I followed the teams (mostly through this blog) and the last couple of years slowly began to increase my interest. Last year, I started to actually watch the games. This year I got sucked in. I started watching the games from the start and found myselfing reallying caring about the team again. As I watched heartbreaking losses to Ohio State, Indiana, Wisconsin, etc. I thought "what have I gotten myself into?" It isn't like I need more sports heartbreak, right? But I wasn't going to be one of those fans who abandones the team once they struggle and so I kept watching. And man did the tournament pay off that committment. It felt so good to see everything come together and see the players not only make big plays but seem to really have fun and play as a team. It felt like they were able to shake off the demons and bad bounces of earlier in the year and just play at a higher level. The first half last night felt like that trajectory would continue. But then Hancock began to rain down threes and my gut began to clench and suddenly it was more like a heavyweight fight - less joy, more determination. And in the end Michigan just didn't quite have enough to get past an incredibly determined and focused Louisville team. In the end I felt not anger but frustration a sense that those players were so close to an incredible opportunity only to fall just short. I wished all that joy could have continued in one last improbable victory. As Brian notes, I wished somehow I could reduce the misery they felt. And of course, lving in Columbus I had to deal with the jerks on FB and Twitter and everywhere else savoring the loss and the misery. But as my duaghter (age 8) said to me this morning as we were discussing it in the car, Michigan is clearly a program to be reckoned with again. And I think that takes a little of the sting of the loss away somehow. Michigan feels back somehow. Maybe I am a bandwagon fan compared to all of you longtime fans but it feels good to committ to a team and feel good about where they are and where they are headed. |
7 weeks 1 day ago | Thanks for the insight into your world |
Having been involved in blogging, both personally and professionally, I know how hard it can be even when you love your subject. Your unique health situation adds another wrinkle. I appreciate what you do and the passion you bring to it. Thanks for bringing the joys, and disappontments, of this season to me through your writing. Best of luck finding the right balance moving forward. |

26 weeks 6 hours ago | Two plays inflated offense in first half |
Take away the big Roundtree and Robinson plays and Michigan has like 137 yards in first half. I think it is a little over-the-top to just blame Borges for loss because of poor play calling in the second half. Yes, I think running up the middle was foolish and I wish there was more creative use of Denard and Devin. But the difference to me was turnovers and Carlos Hyde. Hyde allowed Ohio State to grind out yards. Michigan had no answer. Michigan had the opportunity to win and didn't make the plays when they needed to. The only difference between this game and Northwestern is a miracle throw. |
1 year 26 weeks ago | Thanks |
Sorry to have missed it. I am not an alum so probably why I didn't hear about it. |
1 year 26 weeks ago | Was Bacon in Columbus for a book signing? |
If so, that sucks that I missed him. Ironically, I talked with Michael Rosenberg when his book came out. |
2 years 25 weeks ago | Agree about long term trends |
It would be more interesting to see how Michigan compares across a longer period of time. Was there quanatative decline at the end of Carr with 2008 being destruction and now clear rebuilding back to the average UM #s and beyond? Be interesting to see what the typical range for the team has been the last ten years. Easy to request others do more work ... |
3 years 26 weeks ago | Behind Enemy Lines in Columbus |
I live in Columbus and it gets old after a while. Most people are not real jerks about it but the overall assumption is that everyone is a Buckeye fan; plus you get lots of dirty looks when Michigan is doing well and lots of jokes when they are down (I have lived here during both Cooper and Sweater Vest). You really can't get away from it as it is on TV, radio, stores, work, even at church the pastor will mention the game (Chris Spielman and John Copper both attend my church). I will forget I have on my UM hat and when the guy at the drive-thru says he won't serve me with that hat on and starts laughing it often takes me a moment to figure it out. My mom came to visit close to The Game one year, however, and people were giving her crap all over town so she changed. I told her you can't let them win but she didn't think it was worth the hassle. Of course, my wife's family all went to Michigan State so I have to take crap from them now too ... |

What about Cliff Stoudt? |
3 years 26 weeks ago | I don't understand the complaint |
Having Michigan fans write and debate what happened and what they think it means is too much? If this is to be a true community where fans interact - in addition to reading Brian's unique perspective - then people will have to deal with comments, diaries, and board posts. I don't think it has descended into site destroying chaos and anger today. |
3 years 26 weeks ago | huh? |
If tl;dr means "too long didn't read" then how exactly do you know it isn't diary worthy? Do you get extra points for using internet slang even if it is nonsensical? Sorry it wasn't up to your obviously high standards ... |
3 years 26 weeks ago | Also keep in mind |
that Ohio State was trying not lose from the start (once we gave them a TD and missed a FG). I am not saying the D didn't play better because they did. But if OSU has to win that game - rather than watching us lose it - I think things would have been different. Maybe we win, maybe we don't, but it wouldn't have been the same game. |
3 years 26 weeks ago | Here is hoping |
I am shouting for joy instead of spending the weekend explaining to my kids why it is wrong to say bad words and why they shouldn't be repeating them all day (like happened for Purdue and when the Bengals swept the Steelers last Sunday). A win tomorrow would make my year (yes, it has been one of those years for me). Winning and losing can be a close thing. If everything comes together Saturday who knows what can happen. |
3 years 26 weeks ago | Tragic indeed |
I bear the burden of being a Michigan fan in Columbus. The Spielmans go to my church and I listen to him on the radio frequently so it feels like a death in the family somehow. Chris is a class guy and Stephanie always brightened whatever room she entered. Definitely praying for the family during what must be a very difficult time. |
3 years 27 weeks ago | I am actually rather calm for once |
Weird how expectations play out. Despite the desperate need to win one more game, I just felt like Wisconsin was the better team today. For, I guess, obvious reasons Illinois and Purdue felt very different. |
3 years 28 weeks ago | A little late |
I think a whole lot of people already panicked. Luckily by the time I signed in things began to return to normal. |
3 years 28 weeks ago | Obligatory nice post, Brian comment |
Although, I have never wanted RichRod fired or any other major overhaul, I admit I felt some panic. I appreciate Brian laying out nicely in one post why patience is needed and why he thinks next year will see improvement. I would still like to see a spark in the next two games that indicates this team won't always panic or over-react to things. As has been said by practically everyone, beating Ohio State would really make the pain tolerable. |
3 years 28 weeks ago | Exactly |
This was my point (probably poorly made). The sense that the team was not improving but still in that find a way to lose mentality was what bothered me. |
3 years 28 weeks ago | For the record |
1) I will cheer for this team and watch every game no matter how ugly it gets. I saw the once dominant Pittsburgh Steelers struggle for years before winning a Super Bowl, I will be a Michigan fan no matter how bad it gets or for how long. 2) I have repeatedly said I don't want the coach fired nor do I think that is the answer. 3) What I wanted to know is whether the folks who continually told us not to panic feel like panicking yet. To me this team feels much closer to last years team in terms of poise and finding ways to lose - despite the better offense - than I would have hoped. And it doesn't seem obvious to me that we will make huge strides next year. |
3 years 28 weeks ago | Fair enough |
I would submit that phrasing it as a question is less than a flat out statement that we can't win those games, but that's semantics. So that's my mistake. I didn't mean to say that winning was impossible just that it is hard to look at our play the last five games and see us winning. |
3 years 28 weeks ago | I would like to think I have a tiny shred of patience |
I have watched every single game this year. But here is the rub: "things should hopefully be better next year." I hope so too. But hoping is a thin read these days. If I knew, or had solid reasons to be confident, that the defense wasn't going to be the same or worse and that the O-line would improve I would feel better. But I don't have any reason to do so. Yes, I think the skill players on offense will be better after a year of playing but I fear this means we will just lose high scoring games. |
3 years 28 weeks ago | Not what is possible but what is probable |
I never said we have no chance whatsoever against UW or OSU. I asked if anyone felt confident stating that we could beat them. Has there been any indication in the last six weeks that this team has the poise and confidence to do it? I don't see it. Yes, we could play our best games of the season and beat those two teams. But the defense gives up points at an alarming rate and the offense, despite scoring points, seems to have miscues when the game is on the line. As someone else said, I think we have a better chance beating OSU because Pryor seems to go ice cold at times. But that Ohio State defense could also give our offense a great deal of trouble. I guess we will just have to wait and see. |
3 years 29 weeks ago | I think the basic idea is good |
If you have intelligent football criticisms or complaints, fine. But name calling and venting doesn't help and vulgarity and stupidity just reflect poorly on the person making the comments. If you aren't upset by this loss you are not a football fan. Saying this team is about where we thought they would be is not that helpful right now. They just got absolutely shellacked by a heretofor very bad football team. But fans want to know what is wrong and how it is going to get better. That is what I want to know. And I think the continuity is critical. Constantly changing coaches is a recipe for disaster. |
3 years 29 weeks ago | Kids and swearing |
I wasn't so lucky. I yelled dammit and my 2 year old son has been saying it all night. |
3 years 29 weeks ago | I'll take it |
28-17 sounds good to me. Of course, I would love a real beatdown of a very bad team. A game where there are no turnovers, dumb drive killing penalties or blown coverages that lead to untouched TE waltzing into the endzone. I know the defense is what it is and there are a lot of freshman involved, but I can dream right? It would be nice to see the team gain some confidence and show that they won't play down in these kind of games. Strong games against Illinois and Purdue would help the confidence level heading to Madison. |
3 years 30 weeks ago | Well, looking on the bright side |
Wait, what's the bright side again? What kind of time frame is reasonable at the college level to turn around this lack of talent/depth? Is the expectation for next year to suck but not quite as bad and then the year after have a chance at a functioning secondary? I don't follow recruiting closely do don't have a strong sense, particularly on the D side, how quickly recruits can turn things around. |
3 years 30 weeks ago | What I would like to see |
Is less "They are what we thought they were." And more here is why I think we can still beat IL, Purdue, WI, OSU, etc. Or why we seemed to compete with Iowa at Iowa despite five turnovers and yet get blown out by Penn State at home. What was the difference and what does it mean for teams like WI and OSU? I understand that there are lot of folks going with the OMG!!! type reaction but can we move on to a better understanding of where this team is? I fully expect Brian to provide this in the coming days. I too have a gut feeling that Forcier is getting a lot of blame for poor blocking and dropped passes - not getting first downs kills the momentum and rhythm - but is his injury serious or not? I look forward to the UFRs. |
3 years 30 weeks ago | depends on what you mean by rational |
We are not talking science for the most part but differing definitions of what is reasonable, etc. Heck, most of the time it is hard to agree on basic facts. Given this, however, I think there is always a huge chunk of fandom who are more emotionally attached and engaged in cheering their team than they are rationally or logically setting expectations and reacting to wins and losses. I also think there has been a lot of polarized arguments here in reaction to Saturday's game. A lot of people upset not so much that Michigan lost but that it was so ugly. A lot of people pushing back against over-reaction by saying that Michigan is exactly where any rational person thought they were going to be - better but still not all that good. I am in between those two poles. I don't think the program is in trouble or that RR is an idiot but I also think the game was a step back and a troubling potential indicator in the short term. If Michigan smacks Illinois around then I will chalk up Saturday to a bad day and feel better about a bowl game. If we struggle against Illinois or lose then I will be forced to wonder about another losing season and what that means for the future. You can be rational and still disagree about what constitutes progress and what are reasonable expectations. |
3 years 30 weeks ago | Yes and no |
As others have noted, you don't have to be a fair weather fan to feel that this game caught you by surprise and lowered your expectations. If you are worried that the team doesn't have the talent to compete with the top tier of the league and are worried it won't be there next year that doesn't make you a fair weather fan. Yes the emotions go up and down but if this game doesn't make you at least worry about a late season slump you are a bigger man than me. |
3 years 30 weeks ago | I share the entiment but wonder |
just how far the analogy goes. I was all set to post something very similar here but it appears I have lurked for too long without leaving comments or posting a blog - my blog posting privileges have been revoked. But I linked to this post from my blog (http://www.kevinholtsberry.com/kh/2009/10/24/michigan-football-flunks-it...). I guess I learned the wrong things from the two Iowa games (PSU and ours): that we were a good team who just had to stop turning the ball over and that PSU wasn't that good on offense. I will believe we are a mid-level B10 team when we beat up Purdue and Illinois but not until that happens. - I don't see how RR can keep putting Robinson in if he is going to turn it over with such regularity. |

Coolibar SUNTECT® Fabric
ZnO SUNTECT® Our latest innovation: bamboo cotton embedded with micro-particles of zinc oxide for extraordinary comfort and dependable UPF 50+ sun protection. More about SUNTECT® sun protection >
I love the feel of this product. Wish I had ordered more!
After already having two other ZnO t-shirts, I added this one to my collection and have worn it several times. It is so comfortable and cool in the hot weather. I love the protection these shirts (and pants) provide.
Loved finding a shirt that is soo comfortable, offers great coverage and fits so well! Will be shopping here again soon!
I bought 2 for myself and liked them so much I bought them as a gift for 3 family members
I have bought a few sun protection t-shirts and I really like this one. The color is rich and the sleeves are long enough. I also like that it's not too sheer although I didn't buy a white one, I got the papaya.
I've worn all three on my daily walks. Very comfy and makes me happy that I am protecting myself.
This is a great shirt for golf in Texas or other hot weather states. In addition to the sun protection, putting cool water on the sleeves is a great way to cool off.
I have been wearing these shirts for a number of years and have one in every color that suits me. I dress them up with a silk scarf or wear them with jeans. They wash and wear extrememly well. The oldest one I have still looks good and has been washed so many times that the Coolibar logo and size information has completely disappeared from the inside of the back of the shirt! These shirts are part of my everyday wardrobe as I like to protect my skin from the sun and I also like to look good.

Everywhere you look: red, white, and blue. Even the man who wrote the Pledge of Allegiance, was born here.
And then, there's Joe Christiano: local veteran, and strong patriot.
"Christmas Eve, 24th of December, 1965," he said. "Missing in action."
It was that night, Joe Christiano first learned of a man who shares his name, but is not a relative.
"I kind of aligned myself to the family."
"Throughout the years...I just kept following the story on it."
"It was three or four years ago when another unexpected connection surfaced.
"A friend of mine... found the bracelet, at his house."
Joseph Christiano's MIA bracelet, given to family and friends years ago.
"They have these just to show remembrance, and hope that they find these people. So I says, 'Can I have it?' He says, 'Sure!' A friend of mine buffed it up for me, and I've worn it ever since. I said I'd take it off when they find him."
"I learned that they found the sure identification."
Joseph Christiano will be buried Monday at Arlington National Cemetery.
"I can feel relieved that the family's relieved, and most important is what we've accomplished, by our servicemen giving their life for their country."
A Korean War veteran himself, Joe Christiano has dedicated his life to remembering fallen servicemen as caretaker for Mount Morris' grand Veterans Memorial.
On this Fourth of July holiday, one chapter of Joe's dutiful life, has come to an end.
"Yeah, it shows that what he gave to us, freedom... that it's not wasted. A life isn't wasted. And these younger generations should take a look at this."

Bill Weir was named co-anchor of "Nightline" in July 2010 after serving as co-anchor of the weekend edition of "Good Morning America," which he helped launch in 2004. His reporting is also featured on "World News with Diane Sawyer," "Good Morning America," "20/20" and ABC News-Yahoo! News digital series "This Could Be Big."
Since joining ABC News Weir has journeyed to more than 40 countries and 50 states to cover breaking news and uncover global trends, while interviewing numerous stars of stage, screen and the corridors of power. In 2012, Weir traveled to London to cover the Summer Olympics and he had an unprecedented look inside the Foxconn factories where Apple products are made in China.
Weir brought viewers along to witness the devastation and human resilience after the 2011 Japanese tsunami and was there for the incredible rescue of 33 Chilean miners trapped underground for 69 days. He waded through the floodwaters of New Orleans after Hurricane Katrina, dodged Taliban bullets in Afghanistan and led the network's coverage of "Iraq, Where Things Stand" at the height of the American troop surge.
Weir's live reports have come from atop the Golden Gate Bridge and below the waters of the Great Barrier Reef. He was the first American to broadcast live from Tibet. Jumping out hot air balloons, climbing frozen waterfalls and wading the Amazon highlight his signature adventure reporting.
In June 2007, Weir was named anchor of the ABC News magazine "iCaught," and as a writer and anchor, he produced several special hours for the network on topics ranging from religion to brain science, from the business of mail-order brides to the rise and fall of General Motors.
Before joining ABC News, Weir wrote, developed and hosted shows for the FX and USA Networks and was an anchor and reporter in Los Angeles, Chicago, Green Bay and Austin, MN.
Weir lives in New York with his wife and daughter and sincerely believes he could escape from prison if the need ever arose.

Take action!
Restore State Food Assistance Picture a classroom filled with kids. Now picture one quarter of the kids in that classroom hungry. Since the 50% cut to State Food Assistance, more families can't provide what their children need. It's not fair, and it's time to fix it. Close a loophole, open an opportunity! No matter where you're from, or what you look like, in America all of our children should have opportunities to learn and succeed. Tell your legislators to deliver results for Washington's children in the final state budget. Incrementar el ingreso y proteger a los ninos No importa de dónde vengas o cuál sea tu raza, en los Estados Unidos de América, todos nuestros niños deberían tener las mismas oportunidades para aprender y lograr el éxito.

Haribo continues taking care of Bossaball, director of Music & Sports Wilco Nijland said. "Successful previous alliances make the continuation happen."
Confectionery group Haribo has not unveiled a new sponsorship programma; the current concept works fine, Nijland tells. "This summer Haribo will sponsor our Bossaball Summer Tour for the third time in a row. After holding the first edition in France, they followed us to The Netherlands. We will visit campsites for one month, and Haribo is the official sponsor of this event."
Nijland emphasises that less campsites will be visited during the Bossaball Dutch Summer Tour than last year. "We decreased the number, because we will focus on quality instead of quantity. But we will still be able to promote the game of bossaball at over forty campsites." Almost 200.000 spectators are estimated to get in touch with Bossaball during this Summer Tour.
Nijland is also holding conversations with colleagues of the Dutch Volleyball Federation NeVoBo and Dutch Gymnastics Federation KNGU.
"Mutual efforts to keep the Dutch youth playing sports should be done by us. That is our main task. Maybe a forthcoming joined Summer Tour could help. Exploratory work is currently in progress."
For more details, check the Haribo website.

Ever since her days as the moderate mayor of the decidedly not-moderate city of San Francisco some three decades ago, Dianne Feinstein has defined the kind of politician who can work both sides of the aisle.
That kind of representative is rare in Washington, D.C. And it's not only for the sake of California that she deserves re-election.
Feinstein is smart, efficient, and puts the interest of her constituents and her nation before that of her party bosses.
For the last 20 years Feinstein has represented California's interests in Washington, D.C. She's respected by both her own party and her Republican colleagues and her senior status in the Senate gives California influence that would be lost if she were replaced by a novice - in this case, her challenger Elizabeth Emken.
Feinstein has had a lot of firsts in her political career - the first woman mayor of San Francisco, the first woman elected senator for California, the first female member of the Senate Judiciary Committee, the first woman to chair the Senate Rules and Administration Committee.
This year she also became the first woman to chair the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence, a role she takes very seriously in helping protect the nation against terrorism.
But it's her seniority, among other attributes, that is
Her GOP opponent, Emken, is sharp and a potential rising star in California politics, but she's no match for Feinstein. Emken has been somewhat unfairly tagged as a one-issue candidate because of her activism for autism research. But polls show Feinstein leading by 20 points. Feinstein has raised $12.7 million to Emken's $389,000 in the most recent filing period.
This will likely be Dianne Feinstein's last term. But she shows no signs of flagging energy whatsoever, and her power in the Senate is important to California. Voters should send her back to D.C. on Nov. 6.

After days of research Dan and Dr. Aggro from GigaBoots.com bestow the fruits of their research in this definitive dissection of the Uncharted 3 trailer. This render of the video is a different aspect ratio of the original so there are 2 visual flaws. If you want to avoid these and see it in a much higher quality go to: http://gigaboots.com/?p=182 For the record: NDI Charter = Naughty Dog Inc. and Charter is the name of Naughty Dog's Level Editor (as told to us by Kurt Margenau from Naughty Dog.)

This one is pretty cool though. Has great music by White Zombie and the fatalities are pretty creative. This is Naughty Dog's bastard child before they were well known. (developers of Uncharted, Jak and Daxter, and Crash Bandicoot) I show off every character fatality including secret characters and bosses. I also show all the stage fatalities...enjoy!

The Uniform Relocation Assistance and Real Property Acquisition Policies Act of 1970 as amended (Uniform Act) ensures that persons whose real property is acquired or who are displaced as a result of a Federal or Federally-assisted project are treated fairly and consistently. This course focuses on the application of appraisal review principles and how they fit within the Uniform Act and 49 CFR Part 24 as related to transportation project development. Focusing on larger parcel, uneconomic remnants, cost to cure, and severance damages, the course discusses the qualifications, roles, and responsibilities of the review appraiser from pre- to post-appraisal activities.
Upon completion of the course, participants will be able to:
State departments of transportation (DOTs), local public agencies (LPAs), city and county attorneys, consultants; FHWA and other Federal agency staff involved in the appraisal process. Prerequisite: A course in the basic practices and principles of real estate appraisal (e.g. International Right of Way Association course 400, the Appraisal Institute's courses 110 and 120) or a college-level course in appraisal.
