Matt Reeves
Best known for: "Cloverfield," "Let Me In," "Felicity"
Pros: Overcame the skeptics to turn "Let Me In" into a critically praised, if commercially underwhelming, horror remake. "Cloverfield" gives him a hit sci-fi movie on his resume, and "Felicity" (which he co-created with J.J. Abrams) proves he can chart the volatile emotions of a young female protagonist with humor, pathos and creativity.
Cons: The "Let Me In" box office isn't a ringing endorsement for his ability to deliver mass audiences, and that was only his third feature film. (The first, "The Pallbearer" with David Schwimmer and Gwyneth Paltrow, is best forgotten entirely.)

Wait...why no Steven Soderbergh? He's already directed at least ONE SCENE in the franchise. Why not let him take over?Like (0)This comment has no likes--be the first!-
GeoffBerkshire He might be all tied up with the Liberace movie for HBO. And he hasn't seemed very comfortable working on projects controlled by studios lately. But it would be a fresh challenge for him, and he seems to like that.April 11, 2012 at 1:46PM EST
If he's free and willing, I'd love to see it.

How does someone so ignorant as to write, "Cabin [in the Woods]" is his first movie and it took an awfully long time to reach theaters," manage to find and retain employment at a supposedly credible media site?!
Cabin was trapped in the MGM bankruptcy along with the Red Dawn remake (which is being further delayed to change the Chinese invaders into North Koreans in order not to offend the country bankrolling our deficits) and that's why it's only coming out now.
While the marketing may leave it wanting at the B.O. (it's hard to explain without spoiling and horror is soft in the Spring), the reviews I've seen have uniformly been, "It's impossible to discuss it without spoiling the fun, so take our word and go see it!" Even the wrong-headed item mentions that it's a good film, so why speciously mention the delay in release?Like (0)This comment has no likes--be the first!-
GeoffBerkshire That comment was simply about a perception (rightly, or wrongly) of why Goddard may not be right for the job. If it seemed ignorant, it was only because I was trying to think like a bottom-line-focused executive.April 11, 2012 at 2:59PM EST
Since Lionsgate is releasing "Cabin" and is responsible for "Catching Fire," they'll understand the situation. If "Cabin" does well at the box office despite the challenges you've mentioned, Goddard could be a real contender for this job.
I suspect the irreverent sensibility would be a bigger issue anyway.

I think Joe Wright is also a good possibility. He shows he can do emotional drama (Atonement) and action (Hanna). If he can finish up Anna Karenina soon, I think he would be great for Catching FireLike (0)This comment has no likes--be the first! -

No mention of Cuaron? I know his Harry Potter experience makes him an easy mark, but his resume reads like a straight-up pitch to take over this franchise.
The guy's an ace at literary adaptation (including children's lit), can build a vivid and exciting dystopian world, can handle love-triangles, and has already taken over a major franchise midway. What more can we ask for?Like (0)This comment has no likes--be the first!-

Kyjen Squeaker Mat Long Body Gator Large -- 1 Toy
My dog loves this toy
My year-old Airedale, KoKo, loves his "croc-o-gator" and all the squeekies running down it's back. He loves to just hold onto it and run around. This is a long toy but that doesn't deter KoKo. Generally he tried to "disembowel" his stuffies but not this one - he seems to love it and want it to stay around.

Philip Glass: A Madrigal Opera
Oopera Skaala
New York composer Philip Glass wrote "A Madrigal Opera" 30 years ago, and the title implies quite a bit of foresight. Just as the Renaissance-era madrigal served as a bridge between early music and opera, this Glass composition was a stepping stone from his early-career minimalistic style to the more fully developed dramatic stage works and movie scores that would follow.
"A Madrigal Opera" is scored for violin and viola, plus six voices singing wordlessly. The music from the madrigal-sized forces is meant to be open-ended so that an imaginative producer could apply it to dance or some other kind of stage drama.
The new CD, ably performed by Oopera Skaala of Helsinki, Finland, forces listeners to focus on the music alone. Glass fans will hear the composer's basic minimalist rhythms and pulses, punctuated by chromatic runs. Listeners also will hear Glass straining to break out with new harmonies and melodies, something that later made him the famous composer he is today.

No NOT buy CDA products. They are unsafe, don't last more than 6 months and customer care is horrendous. The inner glass panel within the oven I purchased from CDA 6 months ago, overheated and shattered, missing me by less than half a meter.

We had a CDA oven as part of our Tesco kitchen three months ago. Since then we have had nothing but problems with it. I have just had to call them out again because it is igniting but not staying lit. They are all over you until the point at which they take your money, after that they just don't want to know. The oven looks good, but even when it is working as it should it is hardly user-friendly.

We have installed 8 CDA machines in our new kitchen on the recommendation of the kitchen fitting company.

I just want to throw this topic out into the ether for discussion, but mainly for clarification.There are some who remember the old discussion about the turn to downwind and the loss of airspeed that resulted from the increasing tailwind component. This has thuroughly been discussed and debunked. However, there are still some who think that the aircraft feels an acceleration as the groundspeed increases during the turn to down wind.Example: Assume you are flying in a 50kt direct headwind at 5,000ft with a 100kt TAS. You currently have a 50kt ground speed- we can all agree on that. Now assume you make a 180 degree turn to downwind. Your new ground speed is now 150kts (100kt TAS + 50kt wind.) The aircraft accelerated 100kts over the ground, yet the TAS remained the same throughout the turn. There are some that think that that 100kt acceleration can be felt by the pilot and the aircraft physically experiences this acceleration. Obviously we are talking apples and oranges here, as the frames of reference are mutually exclusive. Fying in IMC with no reference to the ground, doing a 360 degree turn, you would not feel yourself going faster as you turned down wind and slower as you turned upwind (we are not talking about turns around a point, in which this would absolutely be the case)The only acceleration felt in the turn to down wind (or upwind) is the acceleration inherent in the turn itself, as acceleration is defined as a change in direction and/or speed. However, the forces felt are the same in a steady wind and a no wind (shearing wind is a different subject.)Does anybody disagree with was written here?

#FixMyLife What 3 Feuding Sisters Have to Say to Their Deceased Mother—and Each Other
From: Fix My Feuding Sisters
Sisters Yasmin, Yolande and Pam haven't spoken in four years, and Iyanla says part of the reason they treat one another like they do stems from how their mother treated them as children. To help them break free from the pain of their past, Iyanla asks them to think about what they would want to say to their mother. Instead, the sisters end up sharing what they want to say to one another. Watch what happens—and see which sister walks out.

Grant Hackett
From Openwaterpedia
Grant Hackett OAM (born 9 May 1980) is an Australian former swimmer most famous for winning the men's 1500 meter freestyle race at both the 2000 Summer Olympics in Sydney and the 2004 Summer Olympics in Athens. This achievement has led him to be regarded as one of the greatest distance swimmers in history. He also collected a gold medal in Sydney for swimming in the heats of the 4×200 m freestyle relay. He is well regarded for his versatility, being the world record holder in the 1500 m and formerly in the 800 m freestyle, and 2nd and 4th in the 400 m and 200 m freestyle respectively. He has dominated the 1500 m event in the past decade, being undefeated in the event in finals from 1996 until the 2007 World Aquatics Championships. His four World Championship gold medals in the event make him the only swimmer to have won a world title in one event four times, and in total, he has won 10 World Championship gold medals.Hackett was the captain of the Australian swimming team from the time the role was reintroduced in 2005, until his retirement in 2008.
Hackett works for the Nine Network, often hosting Wide World of Sports. He is now working for Westpac as a banker and has expressed interest in a possible future political career.
Contents |
Swimming Career
Hackett was born at Southport on the Gold Coast of Queensland. The son of a policeman and younger brother of an Ironman champion, he first achieved prominence on debut at the 1997 Pan Pacific Championships, where he first won the 1500 meters. He also won the 400 m freestyle, recording his only international victory over the yet-to-be-famous Ian Thorpe at the distance in international long course competition.
1998 World Championships
During the 1998 World Championships, he again won the 1500 m but was narrowly upset by Thorpe in the 400 m. He also combined with Thorpe, Michael Klim and Daniel Kowalski to win the 4×200 m freestyle relay, beginning a six-year winning streak in the event over the United States. Event Results Time
- Men's 400m Freestyle Silver Medal 3:46.44
- Men's 1500m Freestyle Gold Medal 14:51.70
- Men's 4×200m Freestyle Gold Medal 7:12.48
These results were replicated at the 1998 Commonwealth Games in Kuala Lumpur. From 1997 to 2007 he was unbeaten in the 1500 m, winning it at every major world competition, including the World Championships, Pan Pacific Championships, Olympics, Commonwealth and Australian Championships.
1999 Pan Pacific Championships
In 1999, Hackett broke his first world record, unexpectedly breaking Giorgio Lamberti's 200 m freestyle world record while leading off his club relay team at the Australian Championships. That record was subsequently broken by Ian Thorpe in the same year at the 1999 Pan Pacific Championships in Sydney, although Hackett himself bettered his old mark. Hackett himself claimed the 1500 m freestyle, and combined with Thorpe, Klim and Bill Kirby to break the world record in the 4×200 m freestyle.
2000 Summer Olympics
2000 Sydney - Men's Swimming
- Gold 4 × 200 m freestyle relay 7 min 07.05 s (WR)
- Gold 1500 m freestyle 14 min 48.33 s
Entering the Sydney Olympics in 2000, Hackett was the overwhelming favourite in the 1500 m freestyle, and was also expected to help Thorpe take a quinella in the 200 m and 400 m events. However, due to a virus the two finished eighth and seventh respectively. He followed this with an extremely slow swim in the heats of the 4×200 m freestyle relay, and was dropped from the final quartet, being replaced by Todd Pearson. By the time the final of the 1500 m freestyle came, Hackett had qualified third behind sentimental favourite Kieren Perkins, who was being vocally cheered by the crowd. In the face of the immense pressure, Hackett adopted a more attacking, fast-starting approach, and managed to hang on to claim gold.
Over shorter distances, Hackett has been somewhat overshadowed by his fellow Australian Ian Thorpe; with his versatility over varying distances often unheralded. Despite this, he is a hugely popular figure in Australia. His extroverted personality is in sharp contrast with Thorpe's more reserved style, and is more in line with Australian expectations of sporting figures. His major interests outside swimming are playing the guitar and motor racing.
2001 World Championships
At the 2001 World Championships in Fukuoka, Hackett was in the peak of his speed. He set personal bests in the 200 m, 400 m 800 m & 1500 m freestyle events, finishing second to Thorpe in both 400m & 800, and bettering the 800m world record in the latter. Along with Thorpe, Klim and Kirby, they bettered the previous world record in the 4×200 m freestyle. In the 1500 m, Hackett attacked immediately, and stayed well ahead of Perkins' world record, and with the crowd standing and willing him on, he broke the record by 7 seconds, to claim gold. It is currently the oldest surviving swimming world record. Yet no competitor has bested it including up to and at the 2009 World Aquatics Championships, even with the use of the new high tech swimming suits like Arena X-Glide, Speedo LZR Racer and Jaked01. Olympic champion Oussama Mellouli said it was an "epic record". It is the only long course world record in an Olympic event that predates 2008.
- Men's 400m Freestyle Silver Medal 3:42.51
- Men's 800m Freestyle Silver Medal 7:40.34
- Men's 1500m Freestyle Gold Medal 14:34.56 WR
- Men's 4×200m Freestyle Gold Medal 7:04.66 WR
2003 World Championships
The 2003 World Championships in Barcelona, Hackett picked up 5 Medals, 3 gold, a silver and a bronze. Despite capturing individual medals in 200, 400, 800 and 1500 freestyle for the first time in an international meet, Hackett failed to break any personal best times let alone world records.
- Men's 200m Freestyle Bronze Medal 1:46.85
- Men's 400m Freestyle Silver Medal 3:45.17
- Men's 800m Freestyle Gold Medal 7:43.82
- Men's 1500m Freestyle Gold Medal 14:43.14
- Men's 4×200m Freestyle Gold Medal 7:08.58
2004 Athens Olympics
2004 Athens - Men's Swimming
- Silver 400 m freestyle 3 min 43.36 s
- Silver 4 × 200 m freestyle relay 7 min 07.46 s
- Gold 1500 m freestyle 14 min 43.40 s
At 196 cm (six foot five) and 89.8 kg (198 pounds), Hackett won the gruelling 1500 meters race by sheer physical strength and stamina. He showed this in Sydney when he won despite having only partly recovered from illness, and again in Athens, when he survived challenges from swimmers (Larsen Jensen and David Davies) both six years his junior to hang on to win the race, despite a partially collapsed lung. This came after a solid swim in the 400 m to claim silver behind Thorpe, and a lackluster performance in the individual 200m, followed by a unconvincing swim in the lead-off leg of the 4×200 m relay, when he was 1.66 seconds off his best. His sluggish heat swim placed him third, raising concerns within the Australian camp. After the Olympics, it was revealed that one of his lungs was partially collapsed, leaving his total lung capacity diminished by 25%.
2005 World Championships
In 2005, Swimming Australia introduced the concept of a captain for the swimming team. Hackett was awarded this honour, and led Australia in the World Championships at Montreal, Canada. He won gold medals in the 400 m, 800 m and 1500 m freestyle (silver in the 200m freestyle), the first person ever to achieve this feat, along with the only swimmer to medal in 4 distances in a single world championships. His victory in the 800 m event broke Thorpe's world record, and his 1500 m victory saw him become the first to win an event four times at a World Championships. He ancored the 4x200 team to bronze with a split of 1:44.84, making him the second fastest performer in relay splits. He was named as FINA's Male swimmer of the meet. He was named as the Australian Swimmer of the Year in 2005, and was also named the Swimmer of the Year by the Swimming World magazine.
- Men's 200m Freestyle Silver Medal 1:46.14
- Men's 400m Freestyle Gold Medal 3:42.91
- Men's 800m Freestyle Gold Medal 7:38.65 WR
- Men's 1500m Freestyle Gold Medal 14:42.58
- Men's 4×200m Freestyle Bronze Medal 7:10.59
In November 2005, Hackett announced his withdrawal from the 2006 Commonwealth Games due to being unavailable for the selection trials because of a minor surgery to correct a shoulder injury. However, he was given dispensation to act as a non-competing captain in order to mentor the fellow swimmers in the lead-up to the competition. In late 2006, Hackett relocated to Melbourne due to personal reasons. He attributed his disrupted preparation to adjusting with his new regime. Prior to the 2007 World Aquatics Championships, he presented a pessimistic outlook of his prospects.
2007 World Championships
He qualified last in the 400 m event, but led in the final before fading in the last lap to take the bronze medal. He qualified fifth in the 800 m event, but finished seventh, more than ten seconds behind the winner. In the 1500 m final Hackett came seventh, ending his decade long unbeaten streak in the event.
- Men's 400m Freestyle Silver Medal 3:45.43
- Men's 800m Freestyle 6th 7:55.39
- Men's 1500m Freestyle 7th 14:59.59
In December 2007, Hackett competed in and won his first National Championship 10 km Open Water race. By barely edging out veteran open water swimmer and Ironman Triathlete Ky Hurst, the pair both qualified for the World Championships in Seville, Spain. However, Hackett failed to finish in the top 10 in this event, and therefore missed out on qualifying for the 10 km open water swim at the 2008 Beijing Olympics. He was also criticised for appearing to be overweight after the event, a claim that he rejected as "ridiculous" and was specifically due to Third Spacing.
2008 Victorian SC Championships
At the 2008 Victorian Short Course Swimming Championships, his final Australian meet before departing for the Olympics, Hackett broke his own 800 meter freestyle world record - lowering the mark by almost two seconds to 7:23.42.
2008 Olympics
Though Hackett failed to qualify for the 10,000m; he succeeded in other events. He swam the 400m and 1500m freestyle and the 4x200m freestyle relay. In the 1500m he finished second, winning the silver medal behind Tunisian Oussama Mellouli. Had he won, he would have been the first male swimmer to win three successive Olympic titles in the same event, an opportunity denied to two-time Olympic 1500m champion Vladimir Salnikov due to the 1984 Los Angeles Olympics communist boycott. Hackett won the individual 200m freestyle swim at the Olympic trials but as he was not seeking a berth in the event he handed his spot in the Olympic competition in this event to the third place finisher at the trials, Nicholas Sprenger.
- Men's 400m Freestyle 6th 3:43.84
- Men's 1500m Freestyle Silver Medal 14:41.53
- Men's 4×200m Freestyle Bronze Medal 7:04.98

They are fundamentally unverifiable as long as you are inside them. Of course, if you can ever escape your simulation, that suggests duality... On that note, Descartes did not believe reality was an illusion and yet he believed in duality. They seem mutually exclusive to me.

Taking your comment a step further, this is "Good news, everyone!" because when we know these chemicals are bad, we avoid them. Not all of them are regulated, but manufacturers know people care about their kids safety so they avoid using chemicals shown to be bad (like BPA). That doesn't mean kids are no longer exposed to all of them, but I'd wager they're exposed to significantly fewer of them in smaller amounts than we were as kids.

Loneliness in nerds is usually self-inflicted because we choose to socialize remotely (Iike slashdot). I think the typical nerd doesn't "wife the first woman that gives them the chance", but that, unlike your average Joe, they don't typically pursue relationships that they know wouldn't work out. In other words, it's not just somebody who'll give a geek a chance, but somebody who actually loves them enough not to turn around and divorce them after a year. Maybe that "never married" statistic contains the lonely geek stereotype, but I know a lot of geeks (IT, math and music) and most of them are happily married (and most of the ones who aren't are still in long-term, committed relationships). Mine is just anecdotal evidence, but the fact that census data shows both married and never married are above average makes me think nerds stay married.

A Food Revolution?
Tuesday, March 24th, 2009
I'm sure many of you read the big piece in last Sunday's New York Times business section "Is a Food Revolution Now in Season", a piece which encapsulates both the history of America's "Good Food" movement and hope many of us feel that aspects of the American food supply might just change under the Obama administration. While I fully understand the need to overhaul our nation's relationship to agribusiness and processed food, I understand just as deeply–perhaps even more viscerally–the need for thriving local agricultural communities. After all, I have worked over the last 22 years of Frontera's existance to develop a network of local farmers to bring high-quality, distinctive ingredients into our restaurants. Not just because they make our menus distinctive and attractive, but because they offer our guests a taste of what's really fresh, a taste of what our local, seasonal bounty has to offer. And why is that important? Because those ingredients connect us viscerally to our immediate environment. Which keeps us in sync with the world we live in. Which reinforces our role as part of balanced ecological system. Which informs the countless decisions we make every day–from whether to buy that next Starbucks brew, whether to choose the wild-caught Alaskan halibut or Chilean sea bass, whether the farmers market vegetables with the hail-induced blemishes are as good as the beautiful ones from South America.
Not to mention the fact that locally cultivated food creates community. It adds vigor to the farming communities themselves by filling them with human-scale farms run by farm families that are intimately in tune with their land, those who till it and those who live around it. It brings city communities together around farmers market stalls, sharing enthusiasm for full-ripened fruits and vegetables, sharing recipes and ideas in a way that's almost been lost in modern society. It brings chefs together through a web of farmers, comparing ideas and techniques for ingredients many of us have never seen.
A strong local food supply, when you think about it, can provide some of the much needed social glue that we seem to lack in today's culture.
That's why we created the Frontera Farmer Foundation to provide capital improvement grants to midwestern farm families, hoping that a small influx of capital will make them more productive and profitable. After having invested over $600,000 with local farm families over the last few years, the mission of the Frontera Farmer Foundation seems to be paying off. No, we're not in Washington lobbying for Farm Bill reform or dreaming up new legislation. We're here in Chicago, doing what we can to create both a market and a supply for local food.

Feb 6 2013 by Daniel Johnson, Heswall News
THE Wirral Coroner is under investigation over his personal conduct after his business partner made up invoices and took money from clients.
The Office for Judicial Complaints (OJC) has launched an investigation into Christopher Johnson after he was referred to them in a rare move by the Lord Chief Justice, Lord Judge.
It is in light of a maximum fine of £2,000 issued by the Solicitors Regulation Authority (SRA) for his role in events at the now closed solicitors firm Rex Taylor and Meadows in West Kirby.
He was also ordered to pay £3,000 costs by the SRA.
It is understood that the Lord Chief Justice became aware of the SRA's finding and referred the matter to the OJC last month.
Mr Johnson – who has been Wirral Coroner for 25 years and is a former head of the national Coroners' Soceity – will continue working in his role as coroner while the investigation is ongoing.
He declined to comment on the situation.
In a brief statement, a spokesman for the OJC said: "We can confirm that the Office for Judicial Complaints is investigating the matter (in accordance with the Judicial Discipline (Prescribed Proceedings) Regulations 2006."
Once the OCJ has made its recommendations, the Lord Chief Justice and the Lord Chancellor Chris Grayling – who is also the Conservative Justice Secretary – will make their decision.
The possible punishments range from an informal warning, a fine, or being removed from office.
The investigation is expected to last around three months before it concludes.
An SRA investigation into Rex Taylor and Meadows found that the Wirral coroner had "no direct knowledge" of the firm's improper dealings, "which were the responsibility of another partner".
But the fine was still levied because Mr Johnson was judged to have been "jointly responsible" for the firm's breaches of the Solicitors Accounts Rules.
Rex Taylor and Meadows closed down after Johnson's partner Alan Tickell, 54, of Meols, was struck off at a hearing in November last year and ordered to pay £20,000 costs.
