Few people have more street cred with American liberals than Paul Krassner. He published the groundbreaking satirical magazine The Realist (1958–2001). People called him the father of the underground press. (He immediately demanded a paternity test.) He was a co-founder of the Youth International Party, or Yippies. He received the Feminist Party Media Workshop Award for journalism and the ACLU Uppie (Upton Sinclair) Award for freedom of speech. He was inducted into the Counterculture Hall of Fame at the Cannabis Cup in Amsterdam, and in December 2010 the writers organization PEN honored him with its Lifetime Achievement Award. "I want to say how happy this award makes me," he concluded his acceptance speech, "and the only thing that makes me happier is that it's not posthumous." At the age of 79 he runs PaulKrassner.com and is working on his first novel.
Andrew Breitbart is 42, and his goal is "to take down the institutional left," a job he attacks with gusto and much success. He describes himself as a Reagan conservative with libertarian sympathies. He has written for The Wall Street Journal and The Washington Times, was an editor of the Drudge Report and a researcher for Arianna Huffington and helped create the Huffington Post. He currently oversees a group of his own controversial online blog sites, Breitbart.tv, Breitbart .com, BigHollywood .Breitbart.com, Big Government.com, BigPeace .com and BigJournalism .com—"to hold the mainstream media's feet to the fire"—and he plans to launch BigEducation.com, which will take on the academic establishment. He has been a commentator on Fox News and is the author of Righteous Indignation: Excuse Me While I Save the World! In February 2010 he was honored with the Reed Irvine Accuracy in Media Award at the Conservative Political Action Conference in Washington, D.C.
Krassner thought it might be fun if he rang up his longtime cultural adversary and invited him to sit down and discuss their differences and similarities. Breitbart wanted to meet at Applebee's, says Krassner, but the actual location remains a secret. The result, we think you'll agree, is one hell of an interesting dialogue.
KRASSNER: I was surprised to learn you consider my work to be one of your inspirations. You also claim that the mainstream media had a double standard and didn't criticize me the way they do you and the conservative movement that you represent. That's not true, though. I've been excoriated in papers from the Los Angeles Times to the Chicago Tribune to The Washington Post. My favorite headline was give this man a saliva test. You've also praised Abbie Hoffman and the Yippies and Ken Kesey and the Merry Pranksters as heavy influences. Both those men were close friends of mine and remain my touchstones, and yet you're at the other end of the social and political spectrum. What I want to know is, how do they fit into the context of your personal mission?
BREITBART: Well, at the time you were doing what you were doing, trailblazing and causing mischief and mirth and effecting the type of political and social change you were attempting, there's no doubt you were being challenged by others. What I'm talking about is the current order of the media in the 21st century and how history now looks on the Merry Pranksters, Abbie Hoffman, Ken Kesey and Hunter Thompson with great reverence. It's as if they've been given their own wing of the journalism school. I don't want to simplify history. I understand that, at the time, you went through hell, and the same could be said of Matt Drudge. From 1995 until about 2002 the same forces were trying to claim that Matt Drudge had no right to be doing what he was doing, which everybody now accepts as commonplace and accepted practice—AOL just purchased the Huffington Post for $315 million for replicating, on a left-of-center bent, what Matt Drudge does. So the trailblazers, while they're trailblazing, can have slings and arrows hurled at them, and I'm not trying to diminish the peril you went through. I'm stating that right now, when I'm reporting truths on Wednesday and causing mirth on Thursday, the press has a problem with that. I'm saying no, you're not going to define me; I'm going to define what I do, and you're going to have to deal with it. I gained my inspiration from the knowledge that you guys went through the same process, and I'm using you as models.
KRASSNER: In your book you write, "Man, how I long for the days of Sam Kinison, Richard Pryor, Abbie Hoffman, Dr. Hunter S. Thompson, George Carlin and Lenny Bruce, and today the only people upholding their free-speech legacies are conservatives like Ann Coulter and Rush Limbaugh." At first I thought you must be kidding. What about Louis C.K., Chris Rock, Sarah Silverman, Lewis Black, Margaret Cho, Marc Maron, Rick Overton, Harry Shearer, Kathy Griffin, Wanda Sykes, Richard Lewis, Bill Maher, Jon Stewart, Stephen Colbert, Larry David, Rachel Maddow, Paul Provenza? The place is overflowing with liberals upholding their free-speech legacies.
BREITBART: I would say that they exist within a protected class for the most part. As long as they adhere to liberal orthodoxy, they're protected and can say anything against anyone at any time. It's the conservatives who are challenged by the reigning order of political correctness. There's nothing transformative or dangerous about a liberal in Hollywood or a Sarah Silverman or a Chris Rock being offensive, because they know they're granted a "get out of jail free" card, whereas Rush Limbaugh and Ann Coulter exist outside that comfortable order. So I'm rooting for those people over the ones like Jon Stewart, who are in a protected class.
KRASSNER: By the way, I was once on a TV panel with Ann Coulter, and during a commercial break I suggested to her that the labels "conservative" and "liberal" had become obsolete. I asked her what she thought might be appropriate substitute labels. "Americans and cowards," she said.
BREITBART: I love Ann Coulter to the core of my being. Nobody humors me more. If there's anyone I want to have a dinner with and who can have me on the floor laughing—and her laugh is infectious, and to anybody who knows her, she is just a star. Anyone on the left who would spend five minutes with her would be laughing, and in puddles of their own urine laughing, even when she's making fun of them. Leftists have an inability to have a sense of humor about their sanctimony.
KRASSNER: But humor is totally subjective. You've said that Bill Ayers probably wrote Barack Obama's memoir Dreams From My Father, but to me that's an obvious joke. Ayers has said, "I wrote that book, and if you could help me prove it, I'll split the royalties with you." On the other hand, those billionaire Koch brothers, the notorious oil merchants who oppose reducing air pollution, when they claimed that smog prevents skin cancer, I thought that was a joke. But they had actually hired a think tank that somehow managed to come up with that conclusion.
BREITBART: I believe Bill Ayers is a moral relativist, and I think he's protecting his intense and long-standing relationship with Barack Obama. The history of Bill Ayers and Bernardine Dohrn with the Obamas—they helped usher Barack Obama into his political origins, which started in their house, in essence. Of course the media are going to downplay his relationship with Ayers, an unrepentant radical domestic terrorist. Of course they're going to protect Obama. They protected him from Reverend Jeremiah Wright, who was his spiritual mentor for 20 years, and from his relationship with Father Michael Pfleger. The most controversial thing they could glean from my book on the left was that I believe, based on his writing on Dreams From My Father, that Jack Cashill makes an incredibly compelling argument that Ayers performed the mundane task of ghostwriting a politician's memoirs. It's what everyone does. Every politician has a ghostwriter, and I believe to the core of my being that Ayers was the logical writer of Dreams From My Father. If you don't think it's compelling, then don't think it. It's just what I happen to think. I don't think it's even a controversial point. One is allowed to draw conclusions based on well-argued writing.
KRASSNER: In your capacity as Tea Party protector, you must be aware of the blatant disconnect between its plea for small government and its desire for social issues to be controlled by the government.
BREITBART: I don't know what you're talking about.
KRASSNER: I'll give you a few examples related to my own experience. One would be abortion rights. During the 1960s, when abortion was still illegal, if a woman was a victim of botched back-alley surgery and went to a hospital, they were required to call the police, who would not allow a doctor to give her a painkiller before interrogating her. I ran a free underground abortion-referral service and was subpoenaed by district attorneys in two cities, but I refused to testify. Two, marijuana decriminalization. My position is that as long as any government can arbitrarily decide which drugs are legal and which are illegal, then anyone behind bars for a nonviolent drug offense is a political prisoner. I started smoking pot in 1965, and I still do, only now it's medical. And three, gay rights, from "don't ask, don't tell" to same-sex marriage, which is not the slightest threat to heterosexual marriage. I mean, take Arnold Schwarzenegger, Bill Clinton, Newt Gingrich, John Edwards, David Vitter—please! In 1979 I covered the trial of Dan White for The San Francisco Bay Guardian. He had killed progressive mayor George Moscone and openly gay supervisor Harvey Milk.
BREITBART: Dan White was a Democrat, and Harvey Milk was a libertarian.
KRASSNER: I'll put those labels aside, though. When White was sentenced to only seven years for a double political assassination, I got caught in the middle of a postverdict riot at city hall. I was beaten by two cops shouting homophobic epithets—it made no difference to them that I was straight—and as a result I now have to walk with a cane. Anyway, how do you react to the conservative movement's inconsistency about less government in their lives?
BREITBART: I don't know what evidence you're offering that the Tea Party is focusing on any of those issues. The Tea Party is a bizarre amalgam of independents, conservatives and libertarians who have surgically excised the social issues from the table, and the people in those crowds have diverse opinions on all the things you mentioned. I happen to be pro-marijuana, certainly marijuana decriminalization, but I'm not asserting myself and my social views in this current environment. If you can't see and if the media don't want to see that the Tea Party is about financial restraint and has nothing to do with social issues—nothing, nothing, nothing—to the consternation of the social conservatives. I've had rifts and schisms with social conservatives over my stances on these issues. They can call me a libertarian if they want. I don't care what labels they call me. But the Tea Party is abused by the mainstream media, which misinform the public of what their rights are. Their rights are specific to the expansion of government and the inability to rein in budgets. And by spending money on things that don't work, we're putting our children in economic peril, period. It has nothing to do with marijuana, it has nothing to do with abortion, it has nothing to do with gay marriage. There are gay people in the Tea Party. There are people of all different social stripes within the Tea Party who have a singular focus on restraining government debt and applying constitutional principles.
KRASSNER: When Who's Who in America invited me to fill out a form for inclusion in the book, where it asked for my political affiliation I wrote "Independent Dupe," and that's how it has me listed. It's interesting to see how in America the free-enterprise system has become intertwined with democracy, and in the process socialism has become a dirty word.
BREITBART: It is a dirty word.
KRASSNER: It's revealing that Norman Thomas ran for president six times as the Socialist Party candidate, and though he was defeated in each election, over the past several decades every one of his platform planks has been adopted by both Republican and Democratic administrations. The laws they passed just weren't labeled socialist. Now, I have no economic ideology, but I realize there is something wrong with capitalism. I realized it as I read the business section all those years before the recession was officially declared. I noticed day after day these news items about hundreds of employees being let go by different corporations, and yet their shareholders were pleased because the value of their stocks went up. There's something wrong with that. In the insurance industry especially, greed became a preexisting condition.
BREITBART: Well, I think I lean more toward being an independent conservative, in that I see problems with the Republican Party, with its lack of consistency in its point of view and its unwillingness to fight for conservative principles. I controversially support people like Sarah Palin, Michele Bachmann, Allen West and Rick Perry, people who are either sort of in the Tea Party sphere or in the more independent sphere of the conservative movement, who feel less represented by the Republican Party. I've come to appreciate the emancipation of that independence. If anybody came to me with a scandal that involved blatant wrongdoing by a Republican, I would be blissful to report it. But when the mainstream media are so naturally left of center, people can go to ABC, CBS and NBC with those types of stories and they will get maximum coverage. So people end up coming to me only when they have stories that perhaps hurt liberals or Democrats, because they know that if they go to ABC, CBS or NBC the door will be closed on them. I wouldn't recommend that a person who knows of a scandal involving a Republican come to me, because they can simply go to The New York Times and it will be exposed. But somebody should test me, because I would be happy to report on corruption within the Republican Party. I would like to think that my team, the people I relate to ideologically, hold themselves to a higher standard.

When I read this, I'm thinking about the laws of sneiwg and reaping. Assuming she is not reinstated, Ms. Sherrod will simply be reaping what the NAACP has sewn all of these years. The "left" has taken out of context the words of many people over the years and used them to destroy people. Now one of their own may be having the same thing done to them. Also, if you associate with people who use such tactics, it is the same as though you are using them yourself. In other words, she should hardly be surprised she got hit with the same tactics her pals have used to destroy others. Specifically take their words out of context and use it to destroy them. FF estimates there is a 50/50 chance she will be reinstated. I estimate it is a 90% chance she will be reinstated.As for Mr. Breitbart, if it shown that he edited the tapes himself, his career as a journalist is finished. He will be sued for libel and every thing he has will be taken from him. If someone can establish he edited these tapes himself, this story will not die down but it will widely disbursed to "prove" that critics of the NAACP are racists.In sumamry, the questions are did Mr. Breitbart edit these tapes himself, did someone on his staff do it, how did he get these tapes? This may turn out to be a negative for the opponents of NAACP and Barack Obama.
I'd be interested to see this poll done among verots who have actually read all 11 books. Interesting perspective though from the average persons view, though. Also, you have to notice that a lot of the newer books- Coulter, Clinton, Beck, Palin and some others- had their faces on them, which likely immediately trips sensors in their brains. I wonder if the results would've differed if Hitler's or Marx's face were on the covers, or just a list of names and titles and no faces.

yes, Bari lasted much longer and was as safe as Latif, if not more. Latif probably the more spectacular one in terms of diving around but I'll be conservative with my team
yes the mention was in the breaking cheek bone but he got a mention because he was a very good player of pace bowling (along with some others) who got serious injuries (and I think he was talking about WSC at that point was he?). One of the better players of fast bowling from the SC I think.

Apologies to Fazal Mahmood. Would have no objection to someone going for a lower order of Imran at 6, then Rashid (for the extra batting over Bari), Wasim, Saqlain, Fazal and Waqar. But to me I tend to prefer 3-pace, 2-spin combinations, particularly for sub-continental sides.
Younis Khan not everyone's favourite, but he did score a fair chunk of his runs batting at number 3. Javed, Inzamam, Yousuf, Zaheer.. look at their stats and none of them did well batting there.
But I digress - Majid's reputation as a dasher guaranteed a desire to watch Glamorgan bat and he was well worth the effort and, along with my great childhood hero Farokh Engineer, one of the very few sub-continental batsman we got to see. He was a bit short changed at Test level though as he had to open in 1974, and not unnaturally didn't look entirely at home there, and looking it up reminds me that he didn't get many runs in his other Tests in England, but he was a real crowd pleaser at County level, and if you ignore his Tests in England, averaged over 40 in Tests, so he clearly was good enough to make the step up

Cloud computing seems simple in concept, and indeed, simplicity of operation, deployment and licensing are its most appealing assets. But when it comes to questions of compliance, once you scratch the surface you'll find more questions than you asked in the first place, and more to think about than ever before.
Compliance covers a lot of ground, from government regulations such as Sarbanes-Oxley and the European Union Data Protection Act, to industry regulations such as PCI DSS for payment cards and HIPAA for health data. You may have internal controls in place, but moving to a public-cloud infrastructure platform, a cloud-based application suite or something in between will mean giving up some controls to the cloud vendor.
[ InfoWorld's David Linthicum says Watch out: The feds want to regulate the cloud. | Get the no-nonsense explanations and advice you need to take real advantage of cloud computing in the InfoWorld editors' 21-page Cloud Computing Deep Dive PDF special report. | Stay up on the cloud with InfoWorld's Cloud Computing Report newsletter. ]
That's a position many auditors -- and CIOs and CEOs -- find themselves in today. They want to know how to leap into cloud computing in a way that preserves their good standing in regulatory compliance. Here are four tips for keeping tabs on compliance in the cloud, from analysts, vendors and consultants.
1. Be aware of new challenges the cloud may add to your IT workload.
When you evaluate cloud vendors, start by looking for sound practices and strategies for user identity and access management, data protection and incident response. These are baseline compliance requirements. Then, as you map specific compliance requirements to your prospective cloud vendor's controls, you'll likely face some cloud-specific challenges.
Data location is one. The EU Data Protection Act, for example, strives to keep personal information within the European Union. To comply, your cloud vendor should keep your European customer data on servers located in Europe.
Multi-tenancy and de-provisioning also pose challenges. Public cloud providers use multi-tenancy to optimize server workloads and keep costs down. But multi-tenancy means you're sharing server space with other businesses, so you should know what safeguards your cloud provider has in place to prevent any compromise. Depending on how critical your data is, you may also want to use encryption. HIPAA, for example, requires that all user data, both moving and at rest, be encrypted.
User de-provisioning is an issue that will become more challenging as password-authentication methods grow in complexity and volume. Federated identity management schemes will make it easier for users to log on to multiple clouds, and that will make de-provisioning much trickier.
"When an employee leaves the company, what you'd like is to push a button and that person gets de-provisioned from their Windows account and any internal enterprise applications, their mobile phone gets wiped of corporate information, and they're blocked from the company's SaaS applications, " says Tom Kemp, CEO of Centrify, a provider of identity management and compliance tools. Today, automated de-provisioning can't span both cloud and on-premise systems, he says.

Microsoft on Wednesday issued a stopgap defense that protects Internet Explorer 9 (IE9) and IE10 against ongoing attacks until the company issues a patch, probably in three weeks.
An unpatched vulnerability in those two versions of Microsoft's browser has been used by two hacker groups to compromise Windows 7 and Windows 8 PCs running IE10, including machines of a French defense contractor and its suppliers, according to Israeli security company Seculert. The attacks may have started as early as Jan. 17.
[ Also on InfoWorld: One-third of Internet Explorer users at risk from active attacks. | Keep up with key security issues with InfoWorld's Security Adviser blog and Security Central newsletter. ]
"All affected customers should apply the easy, one-click 'Fix it' solution and follow the suggested mitigations outlined in the security advisory while an update is finalized," said Dustin Childs, group manager of Microsoft's Trustworthy Computing team, in an email Wednesday.
The security advisory Childs mentioned was also published Wednesday, as was a deeper dive into the vulnerability by Neil Sikka, an engineer with the Microsoft Security Response Center (MSRC), on Microsoft's Security Research & Defense blog.
It's unlikely that Microsoft will rush out an emergency patch for the IE vulnerability, said Andrew Storms, director of DevOps at San Francisco-based security firm CloudPassage.
"It would seem like it's still in the limited-attack category," said Storms in a Wednesday interview conducted using a messaging app. "So until that heats up, I don't see them rushing to push an out-of-band fix."
Microsoft has said it is working on a patch for the IE vulnerability, but offered nothing about a timetable. The next regularly-scheduled Patch Tuesday is three weeks away, on March 11.
Out-of-band updates -- described as such because they are issued outside the normal monthly schedule Microsoft maintains for security patches -- are rare: The last one Microsoft shipped was MS13-008, an emergency patch issued 13 months ago that plugged holes in IE6, IE7 and IE8 after those browsers had been exploited for about six weeks.
Until a patch is produced, Microsoft offered customers several options to protect themselves, including advice on configuring EMET 4.1 and running one of its "Fix it" automated tools to "shim" the DLL that contains the IE rendering engine.
EMET (Enhanced Mitigation Experience Toolkit) is a tool that manually enables anti-exploit technologies such as ASLR (address space layout randomization) and DEP (data execution prevention) for specific applications. Although it was originally designed for enterprise IT professionals, Microsoft has been touting its use as a security backstop for a wider audience of late.
(Ironically, simply installing EMET does the trick; the attacks seen so far abort if they detect the presence of the toolkit.)

It was one of those nights. The vibe was electric, the techno booming and energetic, and the cold-braving soldiers euphoric as Sebastien Leger closed out Saturday night at Igloofest for a record-breaking crowd of over 10000 people in Montreal.
The bar is set sky-high for week 3, as Leger's brand of bouncy, high-energy techno had the massive crowd creating seismic waves in the Old Port as they bounced up and down with ferocious enthusiasm all night long. It was announced near the end of his top-notch performance that the previous Igloofest attendance record had been broken, with over 10000 partaking in an unforgettable night.

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) - Victims of severe weather in 10 Tennessee counties have until May 31 instead of April 17 to file their tax returns with the Internal Revenue Service.
According to an IRS news release, taxpayers in the counties also have until May 31 to file for an extension of the deadline and to make a contribution to an IRA for 2011.
The counties are Bradley, Claiborne, Cumberland, DeKalb, Hamilton, Jackson, McMinn, Monroe, Overton, and Polk.
The IRS also said affected taxpayers may be able to claim a casualty loss for property damage from the storms. The claim can be done on their 2011 or 2012 returns.

Droitwich events to mark Fairtrade Fortnight
4:00pm Monday 17th February 2014 in Local
PEOPLE in Droitwich Spa are being urged to make a difference during Fairtrade Fortnight.
A series of events are being planned in the town to bring attention to the range of Fairtrade goods on offer, and to show the difference that buying them can make.
Fairtrade chocolate, gifts, toys, tea, coffee and food will be on sale at the special Fairtrade stall at the Farmers Market on Saturday, March 1.
There will also be a Fairtrade coffee morning at Droitwich Spa Methodist Church, Worcester Road, on Saturday, March 8 from 10am to noon. The event will include the sale of Fairtrade goods and a paper banana decorating competition for children.
This year Fairtrade Fortnight is highlighting the difference that Fairtrade can make to producers in developing countries. It aims to raise awareness of what consumers can do every week or every month to make a difference to the lives of farmers in the developing world.
Jean Auty, secretary of the Droitwich Fairtrade Group, said: "We hope the events we are organising will get people thinking about changes they can make in their lives, which can help combat unfair trade practices across the world. We would also love to hear from anyone interested in getting involved in Droitwich Fairtrade Group."

The group used the cruise line to book a catamaran boat for a snorkeling and beach excursion on St. Marteens and were very happy with the trip, lunch, etc. Don't try to walk from the cruise ship to St Marteens shopping area, the water taxi is only $6 round trip and runs constantly.
We had balcony staterooms which were nicely decorated, clean and roomy enough for sleeping and showering, the balconies extended the feel of the room and by opening the partitions between balconies gave us some party room.
I found the food to be very good, meeting everyone's taste, including the cheeseburgers that were provided to the 12 year old in the main dining room when the menu was a little to fancy for his taste.
all in all a great family vacation that satisfied the veteran cruisers and the new kids.

Customer Testimonial
Sorry it has taken me so long to write back, but it has taken us longer than expected to upgrade out basement. I am forwarding you four pictures that I took this morning of the section of the basement where we needed the tiled ceiling. First, the Ceilume tile has COMPLETELY transformed the look of the basement. Everyone compliments the ceiling and when they touch it, they can't believe it's not wood! Half of our basement has low duct work where we do not have an option other than a drop ceiling. We LOVE the tiles and they were so super easy to install!

Customer Testimonial
We LOVE our new ceiling! We have received so many compliments from guests. They all think it is real tin. The best part is that no one can tell that it is a drop ceiling because the decorate strips camouflage the usually obvious metal grid. The grid just magically disappears. The product quality is outstanding and was very easy to work with. The customer service department at Better Than Tin is fabulous. We called a few times with questions and they were incredibly helpful and pleasant. They also followed up with us after the installation to see how everything went. That gesture is the definition of excellent customer service!

(FOX 25 / MyFoxBoston.com) - Winds across the water are producing the only showers Wednesday night on Cape Ann and Cape Cod. Temperatures dropping overnight may allow those to become snow showers that will continue into Thursday.
Away from those areas, sunshine will be plentiful. Clouds will be moving in late in the day and in the evening. Rain arrives from our next storm overnight Thursday, with the heaviest falling from Friday morning's commute through lunch.
Winds will be strong with this storm, perhaps up to 50 mph. I would not be shocked to see thunderstorms along the front as well.
Cold air will pour in behind that front. Snow flurries and showers are likely Saturday, especially in the hill towns to the north and west.
One of our computer models is showing some accumulating snow Christmas eve and morning from a clipper system. It would be light, but seems not very likely to me.
We'll keep you posted.

WTF. How the hell did they get up there?!? I am amazed you didn't get bitten.
I'm assuming that it fell from above. It was pretty cold so it was probably too lethargic to strike. Either way, It nearly scared the lunch out of me. I was on lead too... would have taken quite the whipper on top of being bitten by a freakin rattlesnake 400 feet off the ground. Lucky for my climbing partner, he had the option to take a slightly different route.
no way! I'm about to go do this route with a friend and this is not what I had in mind for getting beta on mountain project.
lol, soloists worse nightmare
@Colin my first response when I enlarged the photo and saw the snake was WTF!!! Dude is seriously lucky he didn't get biten..
So is the snake on or off?
Not buying that the snake "fell from above." It found a route to its stance on the side of the cliff. I encountered a rattlesnake on top of a pinnacle near the summit of Baboquivari in southern Arizona. Only way for humans to reach this summit was via fifth class roped climbing. Snakes go wherever the food goes; rats and mice can climb to amazing places far up the side of cliffs.
Great photo! Glad you were unscathed. We know that blindly placed protection isn't to be trusted, now hand jams that can't be visually inspected first aren't to be trusted.
holy shit! way to keep it together.
I'm actually far more conscientious now about just blindly jamming my hand in a crack. Kinda sucks. haha. I'm familiar with baboquivari. It's a beautiful place. Regardless of the location, climbing is dangerous... in more ways than we know!
Aaaaaaand I'll never do that route. Well, maybe. Sweet Jesus!

CATEGORIES Casting, New Releases, Movies, New Releases, CinematicalA new film featuring Tom Clancy's Jack Ryan character is on track to shoot soon, producer Lorenzo di Bonaventura tells Collider.
The film will be called Moscow, and has been penned by Hossein Amini and Adam Cozad. It was announced last year that Star Trek star Chris Pine would play Ryan this time around, in a tale of Ryan's time fresh out of the Marines, working for a Russian billionaire as a financial consultant. He's framed in a terrorist plot and has to go on the run to clear his name.
It's not based directly on one of Clancy's Jack Ryan books, and it's believed to be a retooling of an earlier, unproduced script by Amini called Dubai. "We have a very good script," di Bonaventura tells the site. "I'm very happy with where we are today and we're looking forward, maybe with a little luck, to starting next late winter, early spring."
Of course Ryan has appeared on screen in the past. He was played by Alec Baldwin in The Hunt for Red October, Harrison Ford in Patriot Games and Clear and Present Danger and Ben Affleck in The Sum of All Fears. Paramount president Adam Goodman thinks Pine is perfectly placed to step into the role. "Tom Clancy created an unforgettable character with Jack Ryan," he said when Pine was cast. "With Chris in this role, we've taken our first step in creating a re-boot that lives up to the successful lineage of the franchise."
Di Bonaventura's timeline suggests a sequel to Star Trek might slot into Pine's schedule only after he's wrapped on Moscow, so expect to see Jack Ryan back on screens long before Captain Kirk returns.

Glick Named SoccerFLA.com Player of the Week
FORT MYERS, Fla. - FGCU's Adam Glick has been named the Soccerfla.com Player of the Week. The award goes to the top player from a Florida school for his performance over the past week.
Adam Glick, who was named to the 2008 Wolstein Classic All-Tournament Team for his outstanding play, led the Eagles to a 1-1 finish and secured the team a second-place finish in the Bert and Iris Wolstein Classic that also included No. 9 Ohio State, Penn State and University of Central Florida.
"Adam had a very good weekend," said head coach Bob Butehorn. "He had a hand injury that kept him from getting the games he needed over the summer, but he has worked very hard to get himself sharp again. We expect him to keep progressing, but we're happy with where he is at this point in the season."
In a 2-1 heartbreaking loss to No. 9 Ohio State, Glick registered six saves in 90 minutes between the pipes.
In the Eagles 1-0 upset win over Penn State, Glick tallied five saves and registered his first shutout of the season.
Glick is a sophomore from Leola, PA, and played for Lanco United.

I've had the pleasure of seeing the movie twice now, once at the Premiere and once at the Cast & Crew screening, and I couldn't be more pleased. Marvel seems to be able to pull a rabbit out of their hat every time. It's nice to have some small association with such consistent quality storytelling.
Anyway, I'm going to wait until the Art of Book comes out on the 14th to post any work, but I'll be putting some stuff up here, so keep your bookmarks hot. There's even a final battle suit design that accidentally got left out of the book, so I'll get to put up some "exclusive" content :)

Farro with Greens, Poached Egg and Fennel Pollen
This lovely and hearty dish makes a nice brunch dish or a simple dinner for two.
- 1 1/2 cups of farro
- 4 cups fresh greens like chard, kale or spinach
- 1/3 cup extra virgin olive oil
- salt and pepper
- 2 room-temperature eggs
- 1 teaspoon fennel pollen
Cook farro in boiling, salted water until it's tender. Five minutes from the end of the cooking time, add the greens and cook together. Drain the farro and greens, reserving the cooking liquid to poach the eggs. Toss the farro and greens with the extra virgin olive oil and salt and pepper.
In the reserved cooking liquid, poach the eggs until the yolks are just shy of set. Pull the eggs and drain quickly. In a bowl, serve the eggs over the farro and sprinkle just before serving with fennel pollen.

Brenda meets the Arranmore Pipe Band, who will perform Amhrán na bhFiann ahead of the Ireland-Austria match - plus by John Delaney, Chief Executive of the FAI, for his thoughts on the game. Katriona McFadden tells us about preparing to take on the challenge of the Camino Way. And Derek talks to Canadian Taylor More, who's selling his house for "bitcoins", a peer-to-peer internet currency.
Next week, Mooney reporter Katriona McFadden will walk the Camino De Santiago. She is travelling courtesy of CaminoWays.com, an Irish company who can pre-book accommodation and luggage transfers along the Camino for you.
Roland from Camino Ways is giving a talk about the Camino in the 53 Degrees North shop in Cork tomorrow evening (Weds) at 7pm and in the Carrickmines branch of the shop on Thursday at 7pm.
Today she interviewed Padraig McSweeney, Chairman of the Irish Society of the friends of St James. (www.stjamesirl.com).
They can supply pilgrims with their passports and also hold regular information evenings.
She also spoke to Michael Walsh who is walking from Holycross Abbey to Santiago on April 7th. Michael and his walking partner Yvonne Tyler are fundraising for autism charities. You can support them here: http://www.mycharity.ie/event/holycrosstosantiago/.
You can get two stamps in your Pilgrims Passport before you leave Ireland. You can get one from the Guinness Storehouse and the other from St James Church.
Would the last person to leave the island of Arranmore please turn off the lights?
That's because, today, most of the island's population have taken the ferry and then the coach to the Aviva Stadium in Dublin for a very special community event.
John Delaney and Ray Houghton visit Arranmore United last year
As you know, Ireland play a crucial World Cup qualifying match against Austria tonight and starting the night off, the pipe band of Arranmore will play our national anthem, Amhrán na bhFiann.
Now we know, that if you play or perform the national anthem incorrectly, you court controversy, as Brian Burns found out in Sweden last Friday...
So no pressure on the Arranmore Pipe Band then! Brenda is in Whites Sandes Hotel in Portmarnock with most of the population of Arranmore...
John Delaney and Ray Houghton offically open Arranmore United's stand in memory of the late Antoin Gallagher last year
Remember how we were all obsessed with house valuations during the boom times?
Well the house price obsession has come back to haunt us once again. But how times have changed!
These days rather than praying our houses have jumped in value by 10% or 20% we're all hoping they are worth next to nothing!
The lower the house value the lower your property tax will be!
Of course the major problem is how to put a value on any property in the current climate. But that's something you will have to work out for yourselves.
Let's say your house is worth 1 million euro. According to the latest exchange rates, provided by gocurrency .com your 1 million Euro is worth £851,980 sterling approximately..
Which is also equivalent to $ 1,296,460 that's US Dollars.
HOWEVER, there is a new currency on the block. And one we might all be using in years to come, to trade all kinds of things including houses..
It's not a national currency, linked to any particular country, But an INTERNET currency .. And this currency is called 'BITCOINS'
And in case you are interested, according to another website,. Coinmill.com, you 1 million euro house is worth 17, 016.92 bitcoins
So .. what ARE these mysterious bitcoins?
Joining Derek from Nashville, Tennessee, is a Canadian man called Taylor More and if anyone can explain this new currency, he can because he is selling his parents house using exclusively these bitcoins.
And financial journalist Jill Kerby also gives us her opinion on bitcoins!
Hedgerows and the Law
Hedgerows in Ireland form important features in maintaining wildlife diversity and in establishing wildlife "corridors", particularly for birds. The commonest nesting birds found in hedgerows such as wrens, dunnocks, robin and willow warblers depend entirely on insects during the Summer months. In general untrimmed, thorned hedgerows containing species such as blackthorn, whitethorn and holly are favoured by birds as they provide ample food and also serve as a protection against predators.
Section 40 of the Wildlife Act, 1976, as amended by Section 46 of the 2000 Act, provides protection for hedgerows by providing that it shall be an offence for a person to cut, grub, burn or otherwise destroy hedgerows on uncultivated land during the nesting season from 1 March to 31 August, subject to certain exceptions. It is important that, where possible, necessary work to hedgerows is carried out outside this period.
It is possible in most cases to schedule and carry out necessary work to hedgerows outside this period. The legislation makes provision for works (other than road or other construction works) to be carried out for reasons of public health and safety under the authority of any Minister or a body established by statute that lead to the destruction of vegetation. There is also a provision to enable the Minister for Environment, Heritage and Local Government to request from the relevant Minister or body details of any such works together with a statement of the public health and safety factors involved.
It shall not be an offence to destroy vegetation in the ordinary course of agriculture or forestry. Also it shall not be illegal to destroy vegetation while preparing or clearing a site for lawful building or construction works.
It is the policy of the Minister to prosecute for offences under section 40 of the Wildlife Acts 1976 and 2000 and successful prosecutions have been taken under this section in recent years. Members of the public are encouraged to contact their local wildlife ranger and report instances where hedgerows are being destroyed during the prohibited period.

All knitters would love this counter. This is the second one I have owned. Last one gave out after years of daily use.

These work good for keeping track of patrons in your bar, the beeping is annoying but does indicate that you clicked them in

There were lots of reviews that had criticisms of the GOGO, so I was pretty worried. So far, though, it has been exactly what I need. Quiet, accurate, and durable.

I am finding it useful for rehab PT for replaced knee. I can concentrate on the exercise and let it handle the count.
|by Betty J. Maroscher
|Date Added: Thursday 27 December, 2012
I have lost 70 pounds this year and had both knees replaced. I am busy doing lots of Physical Therapy exercises for rehabilitation after surgry and also doing exercises in the Wellness Center to lose weight. My mind wanders as I think about other things while doing lots of reps and I forget how many sets I have done so I needed a tally to help me. This counter is easy to use, small and easy to handle while you work out and solved my problem. I sm 78 years old and thought perhaps I was having the problem keeping track of my sets because of my age, but the Wellness Center Coordinator said she also uses a counter and she is decades younger than I; so if you have that problem this is probably a good solution for you too. Also, when doing my leg extension for rehab after a knee replacement, I have to hold it very straight for several minutes with my heel propped up on a high bolster and gravity pulling down my extension -- very painful -- the counter lets me know when I can stop.

The All-Star Game Final Vote isn't a bad idea. It's almost like a checks-and-balances thing between the fans and the All-Star managers -- a separation of powers. It's democracy in action. It's something from a Schoolhouse Rock song.
But there are always a couple of hilarious candidates.
Hi. I'm Jonathan Broxton. I'm a closer. You probably didn't know that. My team is hosting the All-Star Game. I think I'm having a good year. I'm not sure. How much longer do I have to take pictures? Whatever. Vote for me. Again, my team is hosting the All-Star Game. Or something.
No one cares about Jonathan Broxton making the All-Star Game. There isn't going to be a grassroots effort among Royals fans to get Broxton in the game. Broxton will go to MLB.com to vote for himself, the phone will ring, and the next thing he knows, he'll be playing Angry Birds for the rest of the night. And you're tempted to dismiss the final vote for reasons like this.
But there is an important choice in the final fan vote. It's not so much a final All-Star vote as it is a window into your soul. The decision you make with this vote says all sorts of things about you as a baseball fan. It's a way to sort baseball fans into binary subsets.
There are three other participants for the NL final vote. Michael Bourn is in the middle of a fantastic season, both offensively and defensively. Aaron Hill hasn't stopped hitting since he got to Arizona. David Freese is having an okay season, but he gets bonus points for his postseason heroics, I guess.
There were pitchers who probably could have been included, too, but a couple of them were Giants pitchers. And there are apparently a couple of Giants fans in a dark room, hopped up on meth and proxies, willing to do things like get Brandon Crawford almost elected to the All-Star Game. Yeah. So you can see why the Giants pitchers like Ryan Vogelsong and Madison Bumgarner were kept way the hell away from the final vote.
None of that matters, though. It's Bryce Harper vs. Chipper Jones. It's such a damned metaphor that you don't even need it pointed out. They're both former first-overall picks. One of them is retiring, and in five years, he'll be in the Hall of Fame. One of them is a teenager who just started his world domination. You can cast a vote for the older player as an acknowledgment of his career. Or you can cast a vote for the phenom as a vote for the future -- the first All-Star appearance out of 15 or so.
If you think of the All-Star Game as a way to honor the legends of the game, you know how you're voting. If you think of the All-Star Game as an exhibition filled with the players you want to watch, you know how you're voting. And if you're going on a strict stats-based formula, welp, they're both dead even. Chipper has a .291/.372/.450 line this season. Harper has a .274/.347/.475 line. The former has a 121 OPS+. The latter has a 123 OPS+. When you factor in that Harper has played a lot of right field, the positional adjustments are mostly a wash.
A vote for Chipper is a vote for tradition. It's a vote for Alex Rodriguez deferring the shortstop position to Cal Ripken for no other reason than it used to be that way. Play it once, Cal. For old time's sake.
A vote for Harper is a vote for youthful adrenaline. It's a vote for a teenaged Dwight Gooden striking out the side in 1984. It's the present, and it's the future. And it's the most exciting damned thing you can do for the game.
There isn't a right answer. It's like choosing between the Beatles or the Stones, or Extreme and Mr. Big. You have your reasons for choosing. You don't need to justify them. There isn't right and wrong. There are just two different ways to enjoy the only All-Star Game that means a damn among the four major sports.
Hell, I'm voting for Aaron Hill because I used to read "Luann" when I was growing up, and this means something to me, dammit. But if I had to choose between Harper and Jones ... I'd probably give up and secretly, shamefully hope for an injury to one of the current All-Stars. Because this is quite the devastating choice. It's perfect, really. Are you looking forward, or looking back?
If you're looking at the stats, it's Michael Bourn's to lose. But he's not even going to be in the competition. Instead, it's a tug-of-war between the past and the future. Equally qualified talents that represent two very different things. Good luck with this one. I'm okay with either player.
And, really, another All-Star is going to get hurt, both Harper and Chipper are going to make it, and this is all probably moot. But let's pretend it's an either/or decision for now. It's hard to imagine a decision quite this perfect, quite this fascinating. Make fun of the final vote if you must -- and you will. But it sure worked out perfectly this time.

Gap Funding
The IDEA Gap Fund is a monthly process that awards funding to ventures. The Fund commits up to $10,000 in capital to qualified ventures according to their identified capital requirements.
Funding is awarded to student and young alumni/ae ventures that are part of the IDEA program after a rigorous month-long review of a their plans, milestones, and capital needs to accomplish them. This review is done through the combined efforts of the IDEA Investment Committee and the Advisory Board.
Each venture is fully evaluated by IDEA's Investment Committee based on five criteria in an attempt to fairly and consistently evaluate each venture:
An IDEA venture can apply if they:
Ventures can apply on the dates listed below. Funding decisions are made and the ventures are notified one month after applying.
No, IDEA does not take equity in ventures nor does it retain the rights to any of their intellectual property. The grants do not require repayment. Gap Funding awards are grants and there are no contractual obligations to the University. We do build a culture that encourages successful ventures to come back and donate into the Gap Fund.
Funding decisions (both Yes or No) made by the Investment Committee will be communicated directly to the ventures on or before the Decision Date. If a venture is awarded a grant, IDEA's Finance Committee will meet with the venture and their coach to discuss the terms of the Investment. Regardless of the outcome, IDEA will continue to work with the venture.
Receiving funding obligates ventures to use the capital to accomplish the agreed upon milestones. IDEA meets monthly with funded ventures to track their progress and ensure financial responsibility.
Yes, ventures may apply multiple times for Gap Funding.
When a venture reaches a stage they need more capital than a Gap Funding grant, IDEA will work with them to raise capital from external sources.
For any further questions please email: email@example.com

The Fort Myers Beach Fire District says a new tool will soon help them fight fires even more efficiently. The technology will not only cut costs, it will help first responders avoid danger.
Fire Captain Ron Martin says a new tool will help them in emergencies. He says it will show them who to contact – and much more.
"The goal of the program is that when they get dispatched they will see our information," he explained.
The technology ensures firefighters never go into a building blind. Captain Martin used the Diversified Yacht Services building as an example because it's the biggest new building on Fort Myers beach. "On the way to a fire there, crews could look up where the hazards are - in this case, where they keep paint and chemicals," he said.
Martin says the district will spend about $8,000 for the technology.
"We were able to keep the cost low for each individual district," he explained.
He says he wants to have it in place by April.

Jason Isaacs Talks About the Final Acts of "Deathly Hallows"Isaacs Interviews
There is a new interview with Jason Isaacs (Lucius Malfoy) with Collider.com online today, in which the actor spoke to the Harry Potter films coming to a close, and his last days on the set. This interview, which was part of a larger round table discussion at the press junket for Mr. Isaac's upcoming film "The Green Zone," begins with talk of his final days on the set, and his emotional response to knowing this will be the last time he'll film as Lucius. Quoteage:
Well, it's very sad for me. I was already nostalgic for the history of Harry Potter while I was still making it and I knew the end was coming. It was two film…they made the last book into two films and it was a fantastic experience because everybody's back…everyone who is left alive that is…and even some of the dead people. There is nothing greater than sitting around on a Harry Potter set when you're not filming and listening to the likes of Maggie Smith, Michael Gambon, Bill Nighy and Jim Broadbent tell stories. And watching everybody crew the scenery up in the few moments you get on screen - trying to out ham each other is magnificent. This big franchise goes out in an epic way. But I was always cognisant of the fact that I'd have to pack up my little furry friend of a wig and stick it in a box and say goodbye to the cane. All the joy was tinged with sadness for me.
I think the end of the films will be a fantastically cinematic and visual feast. It will more than satisfy the readers of the books…but you won't get is the book on screen. You'll get something more and different. Everybody is very savvy to the notion that this is a much-loved franchise and this will be the end of an eighth film, and it needs to have weight and substance and you need to feel drained by the end of it. It's a ten-year roller coaster ride, not a two-hour roller coaster ride, and we all know it and we all felt it, and it was in the air while we were shooting it.

2012/09/13 •
The all-new 2013 Trek Superfly SL 29er hardtail scored a medal sweep in its first UCI event,the Cross-Country Mountain Bike World Championships in Saalfelden, Austria, with Trek World Racing riders taking a gold, silver, and bronze. Anton Cooper of New Zealand piloted the 896-gram Superfly SL to gold in the junior men's XC, with Lukas and Matthias Flückiger taking silver and bronze, respectively in the Elite Men's race, becoming the first siblings to podium together at XC Worlds.
Completely redesigned for the 2013 model year, the all-new Superfly SL hardtail is Trek's lightest and fastest 29er ever, tipping the scales at a mere 896 grams. It was designed to be the ultimate dedicated race machine, capable of blasting Trek World Racing to the World Championships or weekend warriors to their local series' podiums.
Leading up to Trek World Racing's World Championship medal effort was a two year ground-up development process dubbed the "Apollo Project". An unprecedented amount of people and resources were thrown at creating notjust the lightest, but fastest bike on the trail. The Superfly SL and the full-suspension sibling, Superfly 100 SL, were the first products of Trek's Apollo Project. Trek's carbon expertise, robust carbon engineering staff, and on-site carbon manufacturing pioneered a 30% reduction in surface area, while still greatly improving efficiency. Thanks to closed rear dropouts, and a unique balanced post-mount brake that allows the caliper itself to act as a brake bridge, rear triangle stiffness is drastically improved for unparalleled power transfer.
The all-new Superfly SL and Superfly 100 SL models will be available to the public in November 2012 at Trek's global network of retailers.

Saying "No" to Utility Poles on S. Lakeshore Road in Chelan
New Utility Poles on S. Lakeshore Road in Chelan This petition has been created in order to enable public dissent to the plan by the Chelan PUD to replace, rather than bury, existing utility poles on S. Lakeshore Road in Chelan with new utility poles. Ones that will last 30-50 years. The preferred and future-looking plan is to bury utility lines underground. This has been done in Manson, other parts of Washington state, and throughout the USA. The benefits include: - it protects and preserves the landscape on the most beautiful lake in the world - it protects against utility outages due to storms and other natural disasters - it preserves property values - it reduces maintenance costs for the PUD The District is directed by a five-member board of commissioners elected by the voters of Chelan County. These commissioners oversee a utility system that now includes local water, wastewater and wholesale fiber-optic services in addition to electricity. Please communicate your opinion to the board of commissioners which you elected. Thank you.
