Staff-recommended viewing from the KPL catalog.
Cult film Blast of Silence (1961), which seemingly came out of nowhere in the early nineties after years of existing amidst a fog of cinematic obscurity, is a blast of style, kinetic energy and unsentimental nihilism. It's a low budget but artistically rendered and edited gem of a film that follows the life of an increasingly conflicted, paid hit man trying to get out of the business even as he preps for his next pay day during the holiday season. Frankie 'Baby Face' Bono stalks his New York City target with machine-like precision while at the same time becoming emotionally interested in an old friend's sister. Made on a shoe-string budget, Allen Baron's taut thriller perfectly encapsulates the look and feel of similar films of that era connected to the independent film movement of the late 50's and early 1960's.
The less I say about the BBC America thrillerOrphan Black, probably the better. Full of suspense, the show centers around Sarah, a drug-dealing petty criminal who suddenly finds herself in the middle of a mystery when she sees a woman jump in front of a subway train. The thing is, the woman looks like her—and not just a little bit, but exactly like her. Sarah then embarks on a journey to find out who the dead woman is and ends up questioning her own story. The plot is fascinating and always surprising; there are no red herrings here. As details unfold, perspectives change but nothing is thrown in just as a ploy to lead the audience astray (a sign of a good mystery if you ask me). Tatiana Maslany, the star of the show, does an excellent job playing multiple, demanding roles that would not work in the hands of a less talented actress. Orphan Black will definitely make it onto my "best of 2013" list.
The great films from the silent era to today have always addressed the significant, universal themes and truths that lie at the core of human experience. There may be no better film made about the end of life and the instinctive response to look back on one's dreams, laments, regrets, and accomplishments while standing upon the precipice than Japanese director, Akira Kurosawa's Ikiru (Bergman's Wild Strawberries is a close second). More than a somber piece of cinema about an unremarkable everyman's last days, Ikiru (meaning "to live") is a life affirming and poetic masterpiece that beautifully portrays our main character's search for meaning as he learns he has a terminal disease. Kanji Watanabe, a government employee who nobody seems to know or respect, agonizes over the belief that he has not lived a full life of importance and it's this doubt that drives him forward to engage his fleeting days with a fierce purpose. For like so many, the presence of the end animates what it means to be alive. Kurosawa uses his immense directorial talents to bring this theme alive in fresh and unique ways. Fans of Kurosawa's samurai movies may be surprised at the heartbreaking tenderness that he exhibits in this, his most endearing and humane film that explores life's preciousness through one man's death.
One's take away from writer/director Sarah Polley's brilliant, semi-autobiographical Stories We Tell may be that the film is about family dynamics and the complex secrets they often keep hidden. But what the film is really about is the way in which our lives are like stories, often interpreted and consumed differently by various actors involved within the circle of a particular narrative. The 'truth' about Sarah's origins becomes increasingly unstable as memories (some of which may be unreliable) of the past highlight the relativistic and nuanced nature of individual perspectives and experiences. Everyone's take on Sarah's mother is bit different, which is to say, she struggled to conform to any singular mold or characterization. The film works very much like Tim O'brien's masterful fictional memoir The Things They Carried, a novel set in the Vietnam War but a book concerned primarily with the importance of storytelling as a way of understanding splintered, de-centered realities. It's a wonderful film and one of the best of the year.
By the mid 1950's Katharine Hepburn had solidified herself as one of Hollywood's biggest stars and so with few limitations regarding her career trajectory or concerns regarding box office success, she took on roles that were less about making money and more as vehicles to work with some of the best directors of that time. Summertime, a film that most movie fans don't immediately recognize as one of her signature movies, is a wonderful tale of doomed romance along the Venetian canals. Directed by legendary British auteur David Lean (A Brief Encounter, Bridge On the River Kwai, Lawrence of Arabia), Summertime finds Hepburn in a role that has her playing an emotionally lonely yet headstrong and independent secretary, enjoying her dream vacation in Venice when romance comes her way in the form of a smooth-talking shop owner. Shot in vibrant Technicolor, Lean shows off Venice as a beautiful city full of life and history. The city becomes a character onto itself. It's a film about living in the moment and embracing the vitality of experience.
After watching the Academy Award winning film (Best Foreign Language Film) Amour, a film of tremendous emotional intensity and tenderness, I needed to view a film that took me away into a fantasy world comprised of silly hijinks, screwball comedy and that starred classic Hollywood actors. I found that film in the classic 1938 comedy, Bringing Up Baby, a hilarious romp of absurdity and folly that was the perfect antithesis to Amour's touching but grim story of the final weeks of an elderly couple's marriage. Both pictures represent the best and breadth of the library's film collection, one that has a little bit of everything.
The newest film from maverick filmmaker Terrence Malick will move even the most seasoned movie-watcher with its sheer, lyrical beauty yet will likely confound and annoy those who require a clear, comprehensible and linear plot with a standard amount of dialogue. I love Malick's uncompromised films and yet To the Wonder left me scratching my head at why he's become so drawn to the removal of storytelling and dramatic complexity. It isn't so much that there is no plot but rather that the story is so utterly stale that one may find its shallow pretenses cause to hit the 'stop' button before the 20 minute mark. The voiceover, a device that Malick uses in all of his pictures, is pointless prattle and does little to expand our understanding of the motivations and feelings at the core of the four primary characters, all of whom simply wander about as handsome ciphers. These inadequacies alone would sink most films but of course Malick is one of the giants of cinema and therefore is afforded a bit of leeway given his uncompromising commitment to making films without concern for audience expectations or commercial success (that I really do appreciate). I applaud his integrity while at the same time feel a bit cheated at what could have been. The wondrous imagery that Malick is known for is truly magnificent. His films have always been painterly and romantic, lush and poetic but there's nothing of human complexity or dimension beneath the endlessly vacuous imagery of glowing sunsets, hands grazing tall grass and beautiful actors behaving foolishly. Give it a try. You may find To the Wonder pointless or transcendent or even both.
At the behest of a friend I began watching the tv series Scandal a couple weeks ago, and was quickly drawn into the world of crisis management firm Olivia Pope and Associates. Pope is a 'fixer'- she and her team get their clients, Washington's elite and well-connected, out of sticky situations in order to protect the clients' public reputations. Most episodes follow a case that Pope and her team must handle, but what I love most about the show are the story arcs involving Pope and her associates: these characters are flawed, and they all have their own secrets to protect. Season two's crazy plot twists will definitely have me tuning in for season three in October!
Famously shy and reclusive writer/director Terrence Malick burst into the spotlight with his extraordinary debut Badlands(1973), a classic of American filmmaking starring a young Sissy Spacek and Martin Sheen. The library has recently picked up the expanded and refurbished Criterion Collection edition which features recollections from the two actors and the art director. Fans of Malick's impressionistic and painterly films (The Thin Red Line, Tree of Life, Days of Heaven, The New World) will certainly want to see this version in all of its restored vibrancy. After watching this amazing film, loosely based on the Charles Starkweather murders of the late 1950's, I've attempted to come up with a short list of significant directorial debut films that we currently have in our collection. Reservoir Dogs Who's Afraid of Virginia WoolfThe Night of the HunterCitizen KaneEasy RiderGeorge WashingtonAmerican BeautyA Bout De Souffle (Breathless)Bottle RocketKnife in the WaterKiller of SheepThe 400 Blows
The Sorcerer and the White Snake is gorgeous. The mountain scenery is breathtaking, the underwater visuals are amazing. This is a story of True Love. The demon white snake falls in love with a human. All sorts of problems arise from this but she never regrets it because she now knows true love. The White snake said she meditated once for a thousand years but just a moment with Xu Xian (the human she is in love with) was worth more. This was a great story of love based on a Chinese legend, but the best part was the visuals. It was one breathtaking scene after another. As I have a snake phobia, I wish it wasn't a White Snake but when they are that big they look more like a sea serpent than a snake so it wasn't too bad, only at the end did they send in the little snakes. Jet Li is the monk and he does do a lot of action. But even the fighting scenes are overpowered by the visual effects. When Xu Xian is under water the details of the plant life and the fish was spectacular. When the White Snake flooded the town and summoned the waters, it gripped you and the music swelled and you were carried away. While the story is of White Snake and her True Love with a human it also displayed the sister love between White Snake and Green Snake. When White Snake was dying Green Snake offered her life's essence to her sister. It is a foreign film and you will have to read the subtitles but it is the visual effects that will blow you away. A fun part was the monks apprentice turning into a bat demon and the animated mice were delightful.

I never thought I would be a single mother. When I got pregnant at 19, my boyfriend and I asked each other: "How are we going to tell our parents? What about money? Where will we live?" We knew raising the baby would be hard, but I thought we wanted the same things: marriage, good jobs, a nice family.
As time passed, though, I knew that I was living my parents' lives: my boyfriend wanted to control where I went, whom I was friends with. If I was even minutes late to call him, he'd scream at me. When we argued, the slaps came first, then his weak apology: "I love you. I'm sorry."
When I was growing up, my father kept my mother from everything she loved. She wanted to work and to go to school. My father did not let her. At home, he was aggressive: "This dinner is disgusting," he'd say. "What, are you feeding pigs?" From my bedroom, I'd hear him knocking over pots and pans. The hardest thing was seeing my mother walk down the hall in her nightgown, bringing him a tray, still trying to please him.
I'm proud of my parents. They came from Puerto Rico in their late 20s and showed faith and love to all four of their children. But my dad's jealousy and his control hurt my mother and scared us all. The world was changing for women, but my father didn't want to change. If I asked my mother, "Are you O.K.?" she would choke back tears and tell me, "We women need to do what we please and not let any man stop us."
I imagined everything would be equal between me and my husband. Instead, my son's father preferred hanging out, drinking in the street and playing basketball, to being a father. Like his father, he considered taking care of his child to be "baby-sitting." When he did come around, he even tried to tell me what to do with my paycheck when he didn't have a job. Finally, I told myself, "I have no room in my life for someone who hurts me."
Now, I see that I am part of a generational trend. Yes, single motherhood is up. But since the 1990s, domestic violence rates have been going down. Read more…

North Carolina National Estuarine Research Reserve Technical Paper Series • Number 4 Along the edge of the North Carolina coast, where the tidal marine waters meet the land, you can find vast and lush estuarine marshes of smooth cordgrass. This tall, grass-like plant is called Spartina alterniflora by scientists and it is the dominant plant in many of our coastal marshes. To some, these fringing salt marshes may seem like mucky, smelly, mosquito-infested swamps with little use or value. In fact, Spartina marshes are one of the most important coastal habitats, providing many benefits to people. These benefits, or ecosystem services, include storm protection, erosion control and nutrient cycling. Salt marshes also support a complex and fascinating diversity of plant and animal life. Erosion Control Fringing salt marshes provide a physical barrier between the water and adjacent land. Every day, water moves along the shore as currents or waves. Along bare shorelines, this movement can result in erosion of the land. For homeowners, this may lead to significant loss of property or even threaten homes. Marsh grasses, including Spartina, offer an effective and natural solution. These grasses absorb and break up the energy of the water along the shore, which decreases erosion. Additionally, the roots and stems of marsh grasses can trap sediment providing a more stable, and even growing, shoreline. So, fringing marshes provide two benefits. They help prevent erosion and promote the buildup of new shoreline. Storm Protection The day-to-day benefits of shoreline stabilization provided by marshes is enhanced during storm events. Marsh sediments and vegetation serve as shock absorbers when strong waves and wind lash against the shoreline, providing a buffer for homes and property. Even land that is relatively stable during normal weather conditions is at greater risk of being washed away during storm surges. Marsh vegetation plays a vital role in anchoring shoreline sediments during tropical storms, hurricanes and nor'easters. Marsh on the Fringe The North Carolina National Estuarine Research Reserve is a cooperative program between the North Carolina Department of Environment and Natural Resources, Division of Coastal Management and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration.Nutrient Cycling & Water Quality In addition to trapping sediment, fringing marshes trap nutrients. Nutrients are carried into the estuary in water flowing from upland rivers and from water that flows across adjacent land. Marsh grasses and other plants in the estuarine community rely on this nutrient input to fuel their growth. By absorbing nutrients in estuarine waters, fringing marshes reduce nutrient loads naturally and contribute to a balanced ecosystem. When marsh grasses are sparse or absent, nutrients build up and a common result are harmful"blooms" of algae. Like Spartina, algae are a natural part of the ecosystem and provide food for aquatic organisms. However, if too much algae grows it can cause serious problems. Algal blooms can choke out other plants and animals, and may lead to oxygen depletion in coastal waters, often resulting in fish kills. Similarly, harmful bacterial blooms, potentially causing illness in aquatic animals and humans, may result when nutrients are overabundant. Biodiversity As marsh grass grows, dies back and decomposes throughout the year, it provides the basis for a complex and dynamic food web. In some cases, this includes our own dinner tables. The small, sometimes microscopic, creatures that feed on the marsh plants are, in turn, food for larger animals that also rely on marsh habitats. These larger animals include the blue crabs and shrimp. Many juvenile fishes use the marsh as a nursery area, feeding ground and refuge from predators. The abundance of smaller fishes draws in larger predators such as striped bass, red drum, flounder, bluefish and speckled seatrout. Many other animals depend on fringing marsh for habitat and food. After juvenile fish grow in the estuary, many move into offshore waters. There they become part of an even larger ocean ecosystem. Countless bird species – great egrets, black skimmers, American oystercatchers, and snowy egrets to name but a few – can be found fishing for dinner, raising their young or posing for photographers amongst the marsh grasses. N.C. National Estuarine Research Reserve 101 Pivers Island Road • Beaufort, NC 28557 (252) 838 - 0883 www.nccoastalreserve.net There are nearly 200,000 acres of salt marsh along the North Carolina coast. While it may be difficult to imagine that those muddy expanses of marsh grass are serving much of a purpose, there are many services and benefits that these fringing marshes provide every day.

SGIM Calls for End to Fee-For-Service
The commission report also calls for equal pay for physician services regardless of the setting. The study noted that Medicare pays $450 for an echocardiogram in a hospital and $180 for the same procedure in a physician's office.
"Right now you have terrific incentives for hospitals and physicians doing the procedures to let the hospital buy them up," Schroeder says. "They can have a major increase in their billing for the same product and the public is stuck with increased fees. This is an example where you are getting no extra value. You are just paying more."
The commission also calls for the elimination of the widely reviled Sustainable Growth Rate cap, with the $138 billion cost of removing the reimbursement cap paid for by identifying and reducing overuse of Medicare medical services.
Anders M. Gilberg, senior vice president, government affairs with the Medical Group Management Association, says many of the recommendations brought out in the report are "generally in line" with previous reports from other groups, commissions and think tanks.
"There is a recognition in this paper that you wouldn't simply be able to save money in Medicare just looking at the physicians' services piece of the pie alone. Physicians' services are only about 12% of the Medicare payment," Gilberg says. "It seems like what they are thinking here and what others are thinking is what can physicians do to prevent hospitalizations and in less-costly settings. My gut reaction is that it does have that bigger-picture focus that looks across multiple aspects of Medicare for savings, which is what you'd have to do to really save the system money."

Dr. Knight is right. When people use whatever but don't pay for that whatever, they use a whole lot more of it, limited by only their own better uses of their time. Make employee benefits fully taxable and effective incentives will appear to control costs. Until then, we're on our way to infinite demand for life -prolonging medical care, always paid for by other people [INVALID] so what's not to like about that? ##
James G Knight MD (3/4/2013 at 9:49 AM)
The problem isn't Fee-For-Service; it's the third party payment method that has evolved as a consequence of tax law. The problems are the consequence of someone other than the consumer of services paying the cost of those services. A consumer who is insulated from the cost of the goods and services they use, consume more services and unscrupulous physicians are prone to offer more (unnecessary) services. Consumer directed health care has been shown to control costs without loss of health outcomes. Reconnecting consumers to the lion's share of their day-to-day health care expenditures, while still protecting them from financial ruin due to major illnesses or injury (high deductible insurance coverage), right-sizes health care thru market forces. Making doctors salaried employees is the DMV/ post office approach to the problem and will produce the same culture endemic to these institutions...

"How do 1 feel about comprehensives? rm petrified." Attitudes of mystery, fear and anger surround the phenome· non of senior comprehensives. What do 1 have to know? Will 1 graduate if 1 fail? Why do we have to take them? These are the questions running through the minds of many students, especially the upperclassmen. This· is the first or a two-part series on "Comprehensives- Are They Necessary?" In order to explore this subject. we spoke with nine faculty members, including seven depart. ment heads. They were open and candid in expressing their views, which are presented for your consideration. As a follow-up, we will contact seniors after they have taken their examinations, and correlate the effects they have felt with the aims their professors have stated. Those viewpoints will be presented in the next issue of Gleiner. For Consideration Since the philosophy department does not run a major, Sister Jane felt that she could not speak with authority on the subject. She did, however, otTer some suggested questions wh!ch could guide an investigation. We offer these for your consideration: 1. Does study for comprehensives stimulate a more significant grasp of subject matter? 2. Is some of the discontent with comprehensives due simply to the repugnance that any human being experiences when faced with a hurdle? 3. Could some conditions be arranged that would help relieve the experience of pressure that tends to detract (rom the values that may be ach!evable through comprehensives? 4. Precisely what causes the tension in relation to taking comprehensives• Is it fear of failing. or getting a low mark. of showing up poorly with peers? How valid are these fears? With these questions as a guideline, let us look at some of the purposes or comprehensives. Departmental Opinion The chemistry examination. according to Sister Marie Augustine, aims to determine the student's integrated out· look on the whole field. It tests her "ability to summarize and develop. to do rational thinking. to evaluate, to solve prob· !ems." The comprehensive "cuts across course lines:· and the student uses knowledge from many ditrerem courses in answering questions. U the student has studied properly for the comprehensives. it is a great satisfaction for her to see how much she has learned in her field. Sister Thomas Marion feels that the comprehensive " forces the student to arrive at a kind of mastery of her subject th.at she would otherw:se not have been motivated to achieve.'' Sister points out that " the notion of the compre· hensive is a carry over from the European system which doe~ not deal in piecemeal learning. but which assumes that at the end of your study you have been appreciably altered by your experience with literatu re. There is no point is ignoring or minimizing the physical strain which comprehensives cause in the student," but nevertheless, says Sister. they are a " necessary learning experience." The comprehensives. in Dr. Gwinn's estimation, enable the proCessors to "see how students have come in learning the techniques or reasoning and study in their fields.'' He sees them as a challenge to the students. but also as valu. able "in giving them a measure of satisfaction and still let. ting them realize that there is a lot more to be learned.'' He feels that the examinations "should not be so difficult as to be unanswerable, but that they should be a challenge." 11A Lear·ning Experience" Over and over, the same phrases appear in the profes· sors' comments- "a learning experience," " enables them to cor relate," "see things they never really understand before," "synthesize," "a deep and most abiding sat isfaction." The comprehensives then, at least in theory, are a valuable and necessary part of the college student's education. . It has been suggested that the comprehensives are unnecessarily duplicated by the graduate records, or that the comprehensives are merely an instrument to force the students to study for graduate records. Speaking for his own field, Dr. Gwinn disagrees. He notes that the comprehensives in history cover m'uch material which the graduate records ignore; the graduate records are " present-minded," and con· centrale on history after the French Revolution. Dr. Gwinn feels that graduate records are "almost impossible to study for," but that study for comprehensives is an indirect preparation for them. He also points out that the aim or the graduate records is in part the determination of the person's aptitude for being a graduate student. Questions are thus geared to this aim. French students in teacher preparation take a battery of tests put out by the Modern Language Association (MLA). The NYS Department of Education has asked all colleges and universities to use these examinations in certifr.ing language teachers. They cover the four language skills: listening. speaking, reading and writing, plus civilization, applied (Coxtmoted ox P<JI/< tAr ..

In the sa breath. it also occurred to me that this marks the beginni of a little "review period" for all good Nazareth seniors. To elaborate: Springtime naturally means time for spo on the old NCR playground. And what's more, it's time on again for our favonte sport QUIZ-THE-KIDS, often reterm by its numerous devotees Comprehensive Examinations. Now the only group eligible to participate in this spri activity is the senior group, being as the~'ve been aroun here for nearly !our years now. and bemg as this live game entails tactics and moves that underclassmen ha1• never even see n be(ore. The only catch to the enjoyment the seniors can deriv from this participation is that training for the sport begi during the above-mentioned Easter vacation. And with t constant pr~clk~ thAt is nt>ct>ssary, the poor ceniors won't able to engage in too many other activities during th~ Easter vacation. But let's not pity the seniors too muc After all. nothing can take the place of the refreshment a relaxation they'll find while playing at their little game. F four years they've been waiting for this moment. And it come. At last they can t ake time out from their monotono study-day to curl up beside their favorite shady tree with tall glass or lemonade and 16 notebooks or their major su ject spread before them.

Sincerely, J ean Pettigrew and Christine Redman f ('tmlitHtt'd / t'tli/t IH;f(fC' twu} linguistics, and professional preparation. French students also take comprehensives, which Dr. Otto feels are necessary to examine the content of the literature courses. The music and sociology departments likewise regard their comprehensives to be essential. Several of the other departments, however, including mathematics and speech, said they would "consider" an arrangement whereby students would prepare over Christmas vacation, and take the gradu. ate records in January. Those whose scores fell above a cer! ain point would be freed from taking comprehensives. There are several problems. however, with this suggestion. among them the question of adequate study time for those who are student teaching. Several persons contacted pointed out the importance of good ~tudy meUtud~ fur comprehensive review. Sister Barbara Ann suggests that the mathematics students cover the course from a different text book than their own. Thus, they would be getting the same material but in another presentation. This would eliminate boring repetition. Dr. Gwinn urges his student~ to review their notes and then turn to "good general histories- not outlines." Sr. Marie Augustine suggests broad reading starting from January of the senior year. All agree that the student must do more than "cram" to attain the aims for which the comprehensive is designed. In any event, and from whatever source, there will con. tinue to be some form of all-inclusive examination in the senior year. Returning to the questions at the beginning or this discussion. we see that the major professors would an. swer in the affirmative to question one. We have explored question three, but resolution of this question is not entirely up to any one department. Questions two and four can be best answered by the seniors, and we will present their views in the follow·up to this column.

Rifle prices, wow
My LGS got in a whole rack of various black rifles. They have a few (ACR?) 308's and holy cow...$3300?
Now that 'assault rifles' are off the radar in congress, are people really going to pay these absurd prices or will they go down to sub-$1000 levels for the average 5.56 versions? I just can't see anyone willing to pay an extra 50% for long. |

Most of us will not pay that kind a coin but some will . The ACRs that I've seen before the panic were all 2k plus so $3300 is high but not OMG high . My LGS had milled AKs for $1600 this week and some M&P sports with Burris red dots mounted on them for 1k . I was a little surprised at those prices . This LGS is normally the best in town . When I think about it . Nobody else has any EBRs so I guess they are still the best prices in town
Give it some time . we are starting to see them in stock and soon the prices will drop . There are still a few places like PSA that never really raised there prices . For that those places will almost exclusively get my business from this day forth . It's fuuny how some want the quick buck at the expence of there long term success . while others understand that they will make 10 times the money in the long run by being reasonable now cus we remember who charged what . I will never buy from CTD and do everything in my power never to visit there site .
If you have a problem with everybody . It's not everybody that has the problem |

I think prices will go down, but the Newtown incident has sparked a whole new interest in the firearms industry. Even in California I've been waiting in line at the range.
An M&P sport will never be $600 again I'm afraid.
I told the new me, "Meet me at the bus station and hold a sign that reads: 'Today is the first day of the rest of your life.'" But the old me met me with a sign that read: "Welcome back." Who you are is not a function of where you are. -Off Minor |

Your LGS is late to the party. Prices peaked a few months ago. Many shops are now back down to near pre-election price levels.

Mike Irwin has started a thread in the General Discussion forum titled The "Where is everything?" thread -- guns, ammo, primers, powder, etc... That's the one, central thread where discussions of the price and availability of these things should now be taking place. Feel free to continue the conversation there.

Sea Turtles in Danger.
Sea turtles define all that is ancient and magical about our blue planet and yet they are endangered and struggling for survival, their numbers severely reduced from historical levels. Persistent over-exploitation, especially of adult females on nesting beaches, and the widespread collection of eggs are largely responsible for the depleted status of Caribbean species. In addition to this harvesting, the turtles are accidentally captured in active or abandoned fishing gear, resulting in deaths to tens of thousands of turtles annually. Coral reef and sea grass degradation, oil spills, chemical waste, persistent plastic and other marine debris, high density coastal development, and an increase in ocean-based tourism have damaged or eliminated nesting beaches and feeding areas. Sea turtles once shared the Earth with the dinosaurs, and they have quietly watched the theater of evolution for eons. Among the most migratory of all creatures, they touch the hearts and economies of nearly 100 nations. They have been in the midst of danger for some time, and unfortunately many have been lost due to our lack of action.
Chantecaille is partnering with Dr. Karen Eckert of
, who is focused on saving sea turtles in the waters of the Caribbean Sea, including Caribbean island nations and in Central and South America.
Please join us in supporting the conservation efforts of this unique organization.
Today, Chantecaille is honoring the impressive beauty and stature of these gentle giants with a limited edition palette inspired by their beauty and their warm sandy nesting grounds. 5% of proceeds from the
Sea Turtle Palette
will help WIDECAST ensure the survival of sea turtles.

When I type 'git diff', I want to view the output with my visual diff tool of choice (SourceGear diffmerge on Windows). How do I configure git to do this?
Since Git1.6.3, you can use the git difftool script: see my answer below. May be this article will help you. Here are the best parts: There are two different ways to specify an external diff tool. The first is the method you used, by setting the GIT_EXTERNAL_DIFF variable. However, the variable is supposed to point to the full path of the executable. Moreover, the executable specified by GIT_EXTERNAL_DIFF will be called with a fixed set of 7 arguments:
As most diff tools will require a different order (and only some) of the arguments, you will most likely have to specify a wrapper script instead, which in turn calls the real diff tool. The second method, which I prefer, is to configure the external diff tool via "git config". Here is what I did: 1) Create a wrapper script "git-diff-wrapper.sh" which contains something like
As you can see, only the second ("old-file") and fifth ("new-file") arguments will be passed to the diff tool. 2) Type
at the command prompt, replacing with the path to "git-diff-wrapper.sh", so your ~/.gitconfig contains
Be sure to use the correct syntax to specify the paths to the wrapper script and diff tool, i.e. use forward slashed instead of backslashes. In my case, I have
in .gitconfig and
in the wrapper script. Mind the trailing "cat"! (I suppose the ' That (the article quoted above) is the theory for external tool defined through config file (not through environment variable).
To complete my previous "diff.external" config answer above: As mentioned by Jakub, Git1.6.3 introduced git difftool, originally proposed in September 2008: USAGE=
The last use case is when you'd like to compare your current worktree to something other than HEAD (e.g. a tag)
Practical case for configuring difftool with your custom diff tool:
With winmerge.sh stored in a directory part of your PATH:
If you have another tool (kdiff3, P4Diff, ...), create another shell script, and the appropriate You have also this blog entry by Dave to add other details. The interest with this setting is the See for instance David Marble's answer below for an example which deals with:
As Kem Mason mentions in his answer, you can also avoid any wrapper by using the
For instance, this is how |
In the spirit of answering questions that are somewhat different than asked. Try this solution:
Meld understands git and provides navigating around the recent changes. |
Since git version 1.6.3 there is "git difftool" which you can configure to use your favorite graphical diff tool. Currently supported out-of-the-box are kdiff3, kompare, tkdiff, meld, xxdiff, emerge, vimdiff, gvimdiff, ecmerge, diffuse and opendiff; if the tool you want to use isn't on this list, you can always use ' "git difftool" accepts the same options as "git diff". |
With new git difftool, its as simple as adding this to your .gitconfig file:
Also check out diffall, a simple script I wrote to extend the annoying (IMO) default diff behaviour of opening each in serial. |
One addition to this. I like to regularly use a diff app that isn't support as one of the default tools via
I also like to have the default You can use an arbitrary
It just passes the 2 files to the command you specify, so you probably don't need a wrapper either. |
Solution for Windows/msys gitAfter reading the answers, I discovered a simpler way that involves changing only one file.
Now when you type "git diff", it will invoke your external diff viewer. |
Building on VonC's answer to deal with file removals and additions, use the following commands and scripts:
Which is the same as putting this in your global
Then put the following in
IntroductionFor reference I'd like to include my variation on VonC's answer. Keep in mind that I am using the MSys version of Git (126.96.36.199 at this time) with modified PATH, and running Git itself from Powershell (or cmd.exe), not the Bash shell. I introduced a new command,
SetupNote that
Here's a batch file that works for Windows - assumes DiffMerge installed in default location, handles x64, handles forward to backslash replacement as necessary and has ability to install itself. Should be easy to replace DiffMerge with your favourite diff program. To install:
For a linux version of how to configure a diff tool on git versions prior to 1.6.3 (1.6.3 added difftool to git) this is a great concise tutorial, in brief: Step 1: add this to your .gitconfig
Step 2: create a file named git_diff_wrapper, put it somewhere in your $PATH
If you're doing this through cygwin, you may need to use cygpath:
If you're on a Mac and have XCode, then you have FileMerge installed. The terminal command is opendiff, so you can just do |
this works for me on windows 7. No need for intermediary sh scripts contents of .gitconfig:
I tried the fancy stuff here (with tkdiff) and nothing worked for me. So I wrote the following script, tkgitdiff. It does what I need it to do.
you can use for example if you have meld, you can edit the branchs
I use kompare on ubuntu:
To compare two branches:
You may want to try out xd http://github.com/jiqingtang/xd, which is GUI wrapper for GIT/SVN diff. It is NOT a diff tool itself. You run "xd" when you want to run "git diff" or "svn diff" and it will show you a list of files, a preview window and you can launch any diff tool you like, including tkdiff, xxdiff, gvimdiff, emacs(ediff), xemacs(ediff), meld, diffuse, kompare and kdiff3. You can also run any custom tool. Unfortunately the tool doesn't support Windows. |
I've been using this bit in
But now I got tired of always using meld in graphical environment, and it's not trivial to invoke the normal diff with this setup, so I switched to this:
With this setup, things like this work:
And I still get to keep the good old |
If you happen to already have a diff tool associated with filetypes (say, because you installed TortoiseSVN which comes with a diff viewer) you could just pipe the regular

Morningside College To Host Recycling Event
Weather permitting, there will be a pile of recyclable trash items sitting in front of the Lincoln Center, 3627 Peters Avenue, late in the morning on Wednesday, Sept. 27.
The pile of recyclables will show how many items that are normally thrown in the trash can now be recycled and is part of the Morningside College event "Recycling: It's the Right Thing to Do" to be held that day at 11:45 a.m. in the UPS Auditorium of the Lincoln Center.
The public is invited to the free event, which is sponsored by Morningside's Academic and Cultural Arts Series (ACAS).
A contest to guess the weight of the recyclables will be held, with the winner to receive a free recycling bin for their room.
The event will include a presentation by Ray Turner, a retired U.S. Navy serviceman and Sioux City entrepreneur who picks up recycleable materials on a weekly basis. Turner, who will also take part in a panel discussion, will haul off the recycleables on his truck following the presentation.
The panel discussion will be moderated by Kathy Olson, chaplain and director of church relations at Morningside. Other members of the panel will include Dr. Jim Stroh, associate professor of biology & chemistry; Tug Buse, assistant professor of mass communication; Russell Heine, a sophomore from York, Neb.; and Phil Lieder, a sophomore from Stewartville, Minn.
Stroh will discuss a grant the Morningside Recycling and Campus Environment Committee recently received from the Iowa Department of Natural Resources. Monies from the grant will fund the hiring of Morningside students to assist with the recycling efforts on campus. Buse will discuss the importance of spreading information to the campus community about recycling and will also show a PSA created last spring by Morningside student Brian Johnson, a junior from Bronson, Iowa. Heine will address the business and entrepreneurial aspects of recycling, while Lieder will discuss the evolution of the recycling program at Morningside.
The purpose of the event is to educate, prepare, and encourage members of the Morningside community for an upcoming campus-wide recycling program that will demonstrate the Morningside community's commitment to ethical leadership and civic responsibility.
The college currently recycles paper, cardboard, plastic bottles, and aluminum cans.

Red Hat Advocates True Interoperability and Competition
United States, September 18, 2007Red Hat (NYSE: RHT), the world's leading provider of open source solutions, today announced the following statement in favor of restoring competition following yesterday's decision by the Court of First Instance in Luxembourg in the matter of the European Commission vs. Microsoft:
Red Hat again congratulates the European Commission in yesterday's judgement from the Court of First Instance in the Microsoft matter. Access to interoperability information and the ability to provide alternative technologies are essential elements to restoring the competitive landscape of the information technology market. However, open source solutions, such as those delivered by Red Hat, are critical to this competition,
said Michael Cunningham, Executive Vice President and General Counsel at Red Hat.
Microsoft continues to deny open source providers access to and use of the interoperability information that now clearly must be provided. Red Hat strongly encourages the Commission to take the steps required to assure rapid implementation of a remedy that gives broad and equitable access to Microsoft interoperability information to all competitors, including open source providers. Red Hat firmly believes that competition, not questionable patent and trade secret claims, drives innovation and creates greater consumer value.

I Purchased the AFE 2013 UK VFR Bound Flight Guide with the FREE Cockpit Companion. I've had Pooleys for a few years now so, thought it would be good to have a change.
The text of Pooleys is much clearer - nice black & white for quick reference.........the AFE being a much ' softer font ' but this topic is, I guess, subjective .The information & updates are much the same on both.
The free Cockpit Companion however is ' just brilliant '. Good revision at a glance and info so handy. I can't praise it enough.
Keep up the good work......
Thanks a lot.
