WOODFORD GREEN: MP lends support to campaigners against 'lorry chaos'
8:00am Friday 13th April 2012 in Redbridge By Joe Curtis, Senior reporter
IAIN Duncan Smith has joined calls for 'disruptive' lorry deliveries to a Sainsbury's supermarket to be stopped.
Neighbours complain deliveries to the store in The Broadway, Woodford Green, cause long tailbacks and compromise safety as the lorries are too big for the narrow road and want Sainsbury's to use smaller vans.
They say empty trolleys also frequently block the pavement, creating an extra hazard.
Now the Woodford Green MP has called on Sainsbury's, which opened the shop five months ago, to restrict their delivery times.
Mr Duncan Smith said: "I am very concerned that deliveries are being made to Sainsbury's between 10am and 11am.
"This is obviously a real nuisance for local residents as it creates a lot of traffic on that stretch of road.
"The road is also not suitable for such big lorries - it is a bendy road which can barely fit two lanes in as it is."
Residents welcomed Mr Duncan Smith's support on the issue.
Lilian Strickett, 88, of Kings Avenue, said: "I hope he can do something because it's a distressing matter.
"The lorries are far too big and hold up traffic in the road while we have to dodge trolleys to walk up the street."
Caroline Kamstra-White, 50, of Monkhams Avenue, added: "We sit in the coffee shop in the morning and it's chaos outside. It's been horrendous for people and businesses trying to get on with their day."
A Sainsbury's spokeswoman said: "We try hard to be a good neighbour and we work closely with our depots and suppliers to try to minimise the inconvenience our deliveries may cause to local residents and businesses.
"We use the smallest delivery vans available to us and have instructed our suppliers to stagger their delivery times to try to ensure multiple vehicles aren't delivering to the store at the same time.
"We will continue to deliver to the store after 10am to avoid the peak commuter traffic at the Tube station, thereby keeping congestion to a minimum."
A spokesman added that the delivery restrictions only apply between 11pm and 7am.

Tom Thumb says...
That said, the issue here has nothing to do with the MP. The local council has the power to introduce waiting restrictions where deliveries are concerned. Complaints should be addressed to the council.
There is certainly a problem with businesses like Tesco Express and Sainsbury's Local, because in seeking planning permission they do tell porkies about deliveries. Both businesses attract lorry deliveries all through the day, even though Tesco and Sainsbury's often claim their shops will attract no more than six deliveries a day. In fact there is an endless stream of lorries and white vans parking outside, and it does cause severe congestion. However these stores are popular with the public and councils usually prefer to turn a blind eye to traffic problems, regarding these stores as good for the area, even though they often damage independent shops.

DETROIT -- NHL Commissioner Gary Bettman said the league is committed to keeping the Phoenix Coyotes in Arizona.
Speaking during the league's announcement of the 2014 Winter Classic Sunday, Bettman said the NHL is not exploring alternative options to keeping the team in Phoenix and that there is considerable interest from several potential owners.
Greg Jamison, whose deal fell through when he couldn't meet a deadline with Glendale, is still working on a deal. Former suitor Matthew Hulsizer is reportedly interested.

Five Home Runs Help Eagles Sweep ETSU
JOHNSON CITY, Tenn. – The FGCU softball team got back in the win column on Saturday, taking both ends of a doubleheader at ETSU in Johnson City, Tenn. A two-run home run in the seventh inning from Hayley O'Mara (Naples, Fla.) completed the comeback in game one, giving FGCU a 5-4 win. The Eagles pounded out 11 runs on nine hits (three home runs) in game two, winning by a score of 11-7.
With the wins, the Eagles record improves to 17-23 overall, 6-4 in the A-Sun. ETSU drops to 14-22 overall, 3-5 in conference play.
After the Lady Bucs took an early 1-0 lead, the Blue and Green quickly tied it up with a run in the top of the second. Mariah Fernandez (Cape Coral, Fla.) led off the inning with a walk, and immediately stole second. Tiffani Upchurch (Lake Wales, Fla.) doubled her home, tying the game at 1-1.
Katie Henderson gave ETSU the lead once again with a three-run shot in the bottom of the fourth, putting the Lady Bucs in front, 4-1.
O'Mara cut the deficit to 4-3 with a two-run home run in the top of the fifth, her second homer of the season.
ETSU maintained a one-run advantage until the top of the seventh inning. Jessica Gary (Naples, Fla.) led off with an infield single, her second hit of the game. After a groundout, O'Mara again connected for a two-run homer, her second of the game, giving the Blue and Green a 5-4 lead.
Catherine McDaniel (Melbourne, Fla.) allowed only a two-out walk in the bottom of the seventh, securing the 5-4 win for the Eagles.
McDaniel pitched a complete game, earning the win to improve to 8-11 on the season. McDaniel allowed four runs on seven hits, walking two and striking out two.
O'Mara finished the game 2-for-3 with a walk, two home runs, two runs scored, and four RBIs. Gary was 2-for-3 with a walk and two runs scored, and Nicole Boswell (Jacksonville, Fla.) finished 2-for-2.
In game two, the Eagles came out of the gates swinging, putting up nine runs in the first two innings. An infield single sandwiched in between two hit-by-pitches loaded the bases with nobody out in the top of the first. O'Mara was then hit by a pitch, scoring Ziegler. After a pitching change, Fernandez drilled the first pitch over the right field fence for her first career grand slam, giving the Eagles a 5-0 lead.
After the Lady Bucs scored once in the bottom of the first, the Blue and Green added four more in the top of the second. After two singles to open the inning, Courtney Platt (Greenville, Ohio) connected for a three-run homer to right, her conference-leading ninth home run of the season. Two batters later, Fernandez launched her second home run of the game, third of the season, putting FGCU in front, 9-1.
The lead grew to 10 runs in the fourth when the Eagles scored twice. Fernandez singled home Platt with the first run, and Erin Olson (Naples, Fla.) drove in a run with a ground ball, extending FGCU's advantage to 11-1.
ETSU bounced back with three runs on six hits in the bottom half of the inning, cutting the lead to 11-4. The score remained that way until the bottom of the seventh, when the Lady Bucs scored three more times. Stephanie Sullivan (Venice, Fla.) came on in relief to record the final two outs of the game, giving the Eagles an 11-7 victory and the doubleheader sweep.
Fernandez finished the game 3-for-4 with two home runs, three runs scored, and a career-high six RBIs. Platt was 2-for-3 with a double, home run, three runs scored, and three RBIs. Gary recorded three hits in four trips, scoring twice.
Kelci Breaux (Okeechobee, Fla.) picked up the win, improving her record to 6-7. Breaux pitch 6.1 innings, allowing six runs (four earned) on 11 hits, walking one and striking out five.
The Eagles wrap up their six-game road trip with a doubleheader at FIU on Tuesday, April 6. Game one is set to begin at 5 p.m.

Athletic Training On Campus Educational Facilities:
There are two primary athletic training facilities on the IC campus where athletic training services are provided, and where a large percentage of our students' clinical education occurs. The main athletic training clinic is located in the Hill Center Building, and has roughly 1200 square feet of "usable" space. A second athletic training clinic is located in the Ceracche Athletic Building located between the football and the baseball fields, and has approximately 750 square feet of clinical space. Both can become overcrowded during peak hours, but are run efficiently and are adequately equipped to provide a dynamic & well structured clinical learning environment for all athletic training majors.
Additionally, our academic program boasts the inclusion of an outstanding dedicated clinical classroom & learning laboratory in the Hill Center. Hill 55 is a "Smart Classroom" (overhead projector & PC ready) where all of our classes that include the instruction, practice and evaluation of "hands-on" skills takes place; and is equipped with dual function evaluation/learning tables and adequate space for hands on learning. It is also stocked with ample athletic training supplies such as tape, bandages, braces, wound care essentials, and other modalities for real time clinical learning & practice!
Not to be outdone, the newly planned Ithaca College Athletics & Events Center has architectural plans to include a 3rd Athletic Training Clinic that will provide us an additional site for clinical practice and education as our athletic training program provides clinical services for athletes and events in this new, state of the art facility.

- Familiarity: I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions
This item is not a Locking Skewer. You must purchase the lock separately and end up spending more money. I needed a Locking Skewer when I ordered this item, I still do not have one. It is easy to use, just does not lock.

I think Wally misunderstood my question or rather I Asked it poorly. I want to use the locking skewer to lock a loose wheel in the fork acc. on the rack? I am using a fork lift to secure the bike. Does this make sense?
Wally Phillips
Member since
Ah, I see what you are asking now. Didn't know you were asking in terms of securing a front wheel into the Yakima Wheel Fork accessory with the Yakima Universal Locking Skewer. I would advise against it as most people use the actual front wheel skewer of the bike on the Wheel Fork accessory with firm resistance for a secure fit.
People with truck bed racks would then use the Locking Skewer to securely attach the fork of the bike itself to a Yakima Bedhead or Blockhead rack.
You could also have a roof rack that has a front fork/back wheel attachment system such as the Yakima Sprocketrocket or Forklift. If that is the case, then you wouldn't need the Universal Locking Skewer accessory. I hope this explanation helps clear up any confusion.

Would use this with the wheel fork? Would it be very secure?
Wally Phillips
Member since
Hey m5tp522502,
Thanks for the question. The Yakima Universal Locking Skewer would certainly be used to lock a bike down by the front wheel fork. It is used as an accessory to the Yakima Bedhead or Blockhead which are primarily for attaching bikes to the front of truck beds. Here are some instructions on how to secure a bike using this accessory (Please copy and paste the link into the URL address of your web browser):

No, Works for the BOA and Copperhead roofmount bike racks and the Bedhead and Blockhead truckbed mounts only.
From ORS racks direct: serves as a replacement part for Yakima Copperhead & Boa roof mount bike racks and Yakima Locking BedHead, Blockhead pickup truck bed mount bike racks etc. Skewer is lockable using a Yakima Racks SKS lock core and key (not included; see accessories below.) All Yakima fork mount bike racks come with a skewer included. The Locking Yakima Universal Skewer is a replacement part.

LaGRANGE —
The new LaGrange County Council President is Peter Cook, owner of Cook's Bison Ranch in Wolcottville. At the council's opening meeting of 2013 all present voted Cook in as their next president. The position was vacated by the departure from the council of Jac Price. Price is now serving as president of the County Commissioners.
At first glance, Cook seems like a casual laid-back young man more prone to driving a tractor than driving the political process. But he is a very dedicated public servant.
"I've served with Peter now for over three years on the County Council," Charles Ashcraft said. "I was the one who nominated him for president." He said Cook has always pursued information and attended meetings that went beyond the necessary, routine, committee assignments.
"He regularly makes an effort to attend other county board meetings in order to get information that might impact issues he would be voting on in council."
Ashcraft said Cook is very thorough and, as far as he knew, has never turned down any job handed to him by the council. "He is always ready to take on whatever is needed at the time," he said. "So I think he will do a great job as the president."
Another Cook supporter on the council happens to be his cousin, Steve McKowen.
"I am glad he is on the council," McKowen said. "I have known him all my life. He has a really good business sense and our council can benefit from it. He is approachable and has a good head on his shoulders." McKowen says both he and Cook took office in order to watch the county spending policies and the best way to achieve that is being on the council.
Thirty-eight year old Cook earned a bachelor of science degree in business from Indiana University South Bend. Erica, his wife of 13 years has a degree in education. They have two children Luci, 9, and Levi, 5. They met during his college days in her home town of South Bend. Erica says her main responsibility, besides raising their children, is arranging their numerous agro/farm tours.
Cook's origins are in farming. He and Erica farm and run a bison breeding and meat processing operation (www.cooksbisonranch.com), along with his parents, Wayne and Sharon, his two sisters Susan Corkins and Annette Moore. Together they farm and ranch about 1,400 acres between their operations in Indiana and North Dakota. He is also kept busy as president of the National Bison Association.
A few years back, he wasn't even thinking about politics, until he was approached by the late Roger Boots. "My dad and Boots' wife are cousins," Cook explained. "He served on the council and told me he thought I could do some good by serving on a few committees." Boots laid down a challenge and Cook took him up on it.
"I served on the soil and water board for six years and I now serve as president of the county's convention and visitor's bureau," Cook said. "When Roger passed away, I ran for council and lost to Mike Strawser. Shortly after that Kay Myers was elected auditor and left her seat on the council. I ran and was elected."
Cook said what keeps him excited about public service is the interaction between state, county and local government. It is both interesting and challenging.
"It can be really frustrating to try and establish policies that are in the best interest of our county and then the state steps in demanding that you choose from three mandatory options," he said. "We don't like any of them. The state doesn't offer you an alternative, plus they don't give you much time to reach a decision. After you respond, then the state takes their good old time and might not get back to you with their response for months. Meanwhile you don't know if you are doing what they want and doing it the way they expect you to do it."
Admitting he is on a learning curve, Cook acknowledges he has learned you can't run politics like a business.
"I am learning all the time," he said. "Besides, I have many people I can turn to for some good common-sense advice."

While placing explosives inside a cellphone is plausible, it is almost impossible to do so with iPhones without rendering them non-functional, which is why the TSA is now checking cell phones are actually working.

Malaysia Airlines Flight MH17 was reportedly shot down yesterday near the Russia-Ukraine border. But like Malaysia Airlines Flight 370, which vanished in March, what happened to MH17 is shrouded in mystery.
Jul 18, 2014
It's relatively rare that commercial aircraft are targeted with weapons built primarily to attack military aircraft, but there are a range of potential threats from such weapons. Given that Malaysia Airlines Flight 17 was reportedly at 33,000 feet when contact was lost, it seems impossible that the attack could have occurred using a shoulder-fired missile.
News Release
Although countries with high levels of economic development generally have more personal automobile travel than less-affluent nations, income is not the only factor that determines a nation's demand for cars.
License plate reader technology can be a force multiplier for law enforcement. Its ability to identify license plates of interest to police in real-time makes it an effective tool but there is also potential for abuse. Law enforcement authorities should address credible privacy concerns.

The urban population is expected to double by 2050, when seven out of every 10 people will live in cities. Poverty, inequality, unemployment, and energy management challenges are also expected to increase. One potential solution is the concept of the "smart city," where initiatives are designed to fuse current infrastructures with digital technology.

Systems that automatically read automobile license plates have the potential to save police investigative time and increase safety, but law enforcement officials must address issues related to staffing, compatibility, and privacy before the technology can reach its full potential.

G'day Sunderland Fans.
I'm a keen Sunderland fan, living on the other side of the world in Australia. Each month, or whenever I can be bothered, I'll be writing about what the view from Australia, a country which doesn't really embrace the Black Cats, is on this great club. Or what it is in my opinion. The beauty of living in Australia is that, away from all the hype, you don't get caught up in too many rumours, and can be as honest as anybody. So here goes the first edition of The View from Oz
January is a time of hope for football clubs. it's when we dream of bringing in a solid defender to help avoid relegation, a midfielder to steer the ship, a striker to score the vital goals, or Lionel Messi, because he is pretty damn good. And to sunderland, it's no different. This january, Sunderland, though sitting pretty in 13th, are only 4 or 5 points above the drop. To make sure 2013/14 doesn't require me too fork out even more money in order to watch our games in the championship, Sunderland needs to get some good players in, and some bad players have to go. Here they are.
Goalkeeping: None. Simon Mignolet is fantastic, and unless he gets snapped up by a club, we are fine. Westwood proved himself last season as well, so as far as the man in Orange/Blue is concerned, we are fine.
Defence: In my eyes, the big one. John O'Shea and Carlos Cuellar have both put in blinders this year, and have shown us why we got them in the first place. But too many times have they failed us, got injured or both, and led to poor old Simon picking the ball up from the back of our goal and thinking 'We need better defence'. So a Centre Back is crucial. But not a has-been centre back that will maybe do the job for a year or two. We need a CB who is talented now, and can do the trick now, but young enough to steer the ship for years. A 24 year-old, tall, athletic leader would be perfect.
Left Back is fine, unless Tottenham take our Danny. We need him. Danny Rose has been our best this year by far. And Right Back, well its been a bit shaky, but in just a month I think we need to spend our money more wisely. Instead of putting Gardner in there, I'd like to see Larsson have a crack; He has played their before, it would enable him to get up the pitch in a wide position, and keeps his free kicks and corners on the field.
Midfield: I think we just need more depth. Craig Gardner, Stephane Sessegnon, Seb Larsson and Adam Johnson are all good enough players, but if a few of them get injured we are stuffed. With Catts on the sideline already, and probably going to give away countless red cards when he comes back, we just need a few more numbers.
Forwards: Steven Fletcher has been amazing, a god-send. Without him we'd be talking about how we will cope in the championship next year. However, what we need is a young, tall talent who can both accept he is going to play second fiddle to Steve, but someone who will push him for his spot. Benteke anyone?
Goalkeeping: No one!!!! Although there are rumours going around, lets hope these don't come to fruition.
Defence: Matt Killgallon. Every time he plays I get nervous. Every time. And I'm not forgetting that miss against Norwich anytime soon either. He shows glimpses of being a good player, but to be honest, glimpses are not enough. Titus Bramble also needs to go. As much as I love the big lad, he just isn't that good. i want to see him succeed, but he isn't going too anytime soon. Not in red and white atleast.
Midfield: People will hate me for this, and after signing a new deal I know it isn't possible, but Lee Cattermole. He seems like a great leader, and that may be enough for him to hang on, but he isn't that good a player. He puts in a blinder every now and then, but for the number of injuries he gets added to all those suspensions, I don't know if he is worth it. We would need to get a decent central midfielder capable of defending before he left, and with Alfred N'Diame or whoever he is coming in, we might already have a replacement. Above all, I hate the heart attacks I get on the couch every time he makes a challenge. I always think he is going to see red.
Forwards: If we don't bring in anyone, then nobody. We simply do not have the depth. If we do, then probably Louis Saha or Frazier Campbell has too go. I love Frazier, and want him to play, but he doesn't seem to feature in MON's set up anymore. He can come on and score, but he has fallen behind a fellow Conor. And for the potential he has, I do not think he fancies sitting on a bench each week. Saha is old and has never really threatened the scorers. Handy to have, but I don't think anyone would cry if he left.
So thats the view from Oz this week/fortnight/month. Bring in some centre backs, a few strikers, and sure up the midfield. With MON already signing one player, we can dream of a strong squad. What do you think? Who do we need?

Ninth Circuit: Deleted Computer File Not Enough For Child Porn Conviction
In the recently decided case, U.S. v. Flyer, No. 08-10580 (2-8-11), the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals determined that deletion of an image alone is insufficient evidence to support a conviction for knowing possession of child pornography on or about a certain date under US federal law.
In an undercover operation, the FBI had downloaded various files containing child porn through a file-sharing program, which were traced back to the defendant's IP address. A search of the defendant's residence produced a computer, on which child pornography was found in the "unallocated space" on the defendant's hard-drive. Files found in unallocated space are files which have been deleted, but which can be viewed or accessed with special software. Based upon the government's finding of child pornography files in the "unallocated" space on the defendant's hard-drive, he was charged with possession of child pornography and convicted at trial.
On appeal, the defendant argued that evidence presented at trial was insufficient to support his conviction. The Ninth Circuit agreed, reversing his conviction. The court explained that the government had presented no evidence that the defendant knew that the files existed on the unallocated space of his computer's hard-drive, or that he had the special software required to see or access the files. The Court also noted that there was no evidence that the defendant had "accessed, enlarged, or manipulated any of the charged images", and that "he made no admission that he had viewed the charged images on or near the time alleged in the indictment." Thus, because the only evidence supporting the defendant's conviction was the deletion of an image (leaving it in the "unallocated space"), the Court determined that the evidence failed to support a conviction for possession of child pornography.

October is breast cancer awareness month and today hundreds of people gathered in Roanoke to join the fight and make a difference.
The annual "positively pink parade and party" was at Valley View Mall in Roanoke. It started as just a small walk, but has now grown into much more.
All money raised from the event goes to "Every Woman's Life" in the Roanoke Valley. It's an organization that provides free mammogram and cervical screenings to low income, uninsured and underinsured women right here in the Roanoke Valley.
It's been proven that screenings and early detection greatly improves the survival rates of cancer victims.
Survival was the theme of the day as hundreds of men and women came out dressed head to toe in their best pink attire.
Leading the way with banner in hand was Louise Dudley, a seven year survivor of an aggressive form of breast cancer.
She's been through it all, the good and the bad, but today she is celebrating.
"It feels marvelous to be able to celebrate," Dudley said.
Now that her battle is over -she is helping others who are still battling,hoping to inspire other women in joining their fight.
She says wearing pink by the masses is a way of uniting what she refers to as family.
"It's a sisterhood and once you have gone through this journey you have to share your strength in order to lend a helping hand to other women to let them know that they are going to make it, they are going to survive this.," Dudley said.
Several women of new covenant living church in Roanoke have several survivors to celebrate. But as they put on their pink, they used the day to celebrate the life of a sister who lost her battle only days ago.
Wearing her name across their chest they honored her by giving back to the cause she desperately fought for.
Member Sheila Herron says it is something their friend Lisa would have wanted.
"We truly believe every gift from God is simple," Herron said. "You give back to your community. we believe it is a celebration of life whether or not they have succumb or are still alive. "We celebrate life."
It's a hope that Dudley and hundreds of other survivors continue to fight for - wearing pink, and a smile the entire way.
To find out more information about affordable health screenings visit Every Woman's Life.

After a solid first day, Tiger Woods' second round is underway as he attempts to remain in contention heading into the weekend. Woods is even through his first three holes and remains 2-under for the tournament.
Woods, who struggled with his approach shots early on Thursday, had similar issues right off the bat on Friday. His approach into the par-4 first hole ran off the back of the green. He was able to get up-and-down to save par on what has been the toughest Augusta National hole for Woods throughout his career.
The par-5 second hole provided Woods a solid birdie opportunity, but for the second straight round, Woods was unable to capitalize. After his approach went over the green, Woods' chip came up well short of the green, taking a birdie out of play and leaving him a difficult par save which he was able to convert.
Woods hit his first green in regulation on No. 3, but a lengthy birdie putt was well off. He made the par putt to remain even-par for the day. With the course playing as difficult as it is, three straight pars is a solid start. The leaders, including Dustin Johnson, have run into some issues. Jim Furyk and Marc Leishman are currently tied for the lead at 5-under, leaving Woods three-strokes back.

ATLANTA (AP) - Atlanta police say a man who was found dead near Interstate 20 got out of a car on the highway after an argument and likely fell down a steep embankment.
The Fulton County Medical Examiner has identified the man as Russell T. Sutton Jr. of Conyers.
Atlanta police spokeswoman Kim Jones told the Atlanta Journal-Constitution (http://bit.ly/JMco2i ) that the man was with family and friends at a tavern on New Year's Eve. Jones says the man was later involved in an argument and told the person driving that he'd rather walk.
Jones says an autopsy will be performed to determine the man's cause of death.

Around The House debates Police and Crime Commissioners
Police and Crime Commissioners were elected in November to oversee every force in England.
The responsibilities of PCCs include overseeing budgets and strategy. The Government says they will make forces more accountable to the public.
The role, though, had a controversial start as so few voters turned out for last autumn's election.
Recently, the Home Affairs Select Committee called for better scrutiny of Commissioners.
Helen Ford discussed PCCs with the Conservative MP for Skipton and Ripon, Julian Smith and the Labour MP for Houghton and Sunderland South, Bridget Phillipson, who is also a member of the Home Affairs Committee.

Tosin Abasi Animals as Leaders slap / thump thumb technique lesson! 2013
I now do private one on one lessons via Skype worldwide! Increase your knowledge of scales, theory, modes, chords, arpeggios, and more with me. Flexible times and great low rates. Hit me up! I've been getting requests to do a video lesson on the super cool guitar slap/thump technique for a LONG time now. Finally got around to making the most comprehensive video lesson i could! I think this will help you out for sure. This technique has been brought to the spotlight by Tosin Abasi and Javier Reyes of the band Animals as Leaders, and it seems like more and more players are sneaking little bits of this into their playing. Its a ton of fun. As i mention several times in the video, its basically just a really quick REST STROKE with the thumb. Be sure not to make a TON of contact with the string, you don't want or need your entire thumb pushing through it. Just graze it with the edge and that's about all you need! I do not cover much about the role of the other fingers here, just the thumb and left hand. I will get around to doing another video on how to use your index, middle, and ring fingers too if you all want it! PLaying my swirled Ibanez RG7621 here, with Dimarzio Crunch Lab and Liquifire 7 pickups in it. Sounds amazing!

This weekend, "Skyfall" is unleashed on cinemas nationwide. Almost from the very first sequence you will realize this is a very, very James Bond movie, and although it's the third in the Daniel Craig series, "Skyfall" almost feels like a hard reboot of the entire franchise, with winking nods to the previous entries and some bold expansion in other areas. The film is also laced with both melancholy and humor, both of which were absent in the hard-driven previous two.
We recently sat down with the fim's director Sam Mendes, the Academy Award-winning filmmaker behind "American Beauty" and "Road to Perdition," and spoke with him about the challenges he faced in taking on such a beloved franchise, what he intended to do with the series, and where his significantly reconfigured Bond could go. At one point, when talking about the refreshed look of the movie, achieved in conjunction with genius cinematographer Roger Deakins, Mendes told us that he was trying desperately to make a James Bond movie that looked really different. "Could you tell?" he asked. Yes, absolutely. And for those wondering about the Bond's bullseye "spoiler," Mendes notes: "It's always at the beginning of the movie. We tried it to put it in the opening.. It just didn't work."
But like most other things re-thought and re-tooled for "Skyfall," it all fits into a picture that audiences are welcoming in a big way. Below, our extensive chat with Sam Mendes. Some spoilers ahead.
Were you always interested in doing a Bond movie?
No, not at all. It all came with Daniel [Craig], really. I was never interested and I don't think I saw most of the Pierce Brosnan ones. I was not into them at the time and then when Daniel got cast I was interested because he was a friend and I had worked with him. And I thought, "Wow, I thought that I wasn't interested." I was on record as saying that I didn't think he was good casting. Then I saw it and was blown away and was suddenly interested again, as a character, and eager to see the next one. I was slightly disappointed with 'Quantum' although I think it's got a bit of a short shrift, there's a lot in it that's interesting. But when I met with Daniel and he asked whether or not I was interested in doing it, I found myself saying yes very quickly. It was just good timing.
Well, there's lots of back-to-basics stuff in it, but in a new way. I was interested in rediscovering MI-6, rediscovering England, Q, Moneypenny, and that whole world. And also the nods to the great movies of the sixties, the DB5, all that stuff was stuff that I was eager to get back into.
Was there a favorite or one that you wanted to draw from?
No. Where I stole from was the last two Fleming novels – "Man with the Golden Gun" and "You Only Live Twice." In the movie versions they abandoned a lot of the dark stuff from the books, because the Bond of those later books is very cynical, kind of dark, really interesting. And I thought that was something that we could play around with at the beginning of the movie, after Bond has gone into the depths and lost himself and is woken up by this terrorist attack.
Was Adele always your choice and was that style always the plan?
She was always my choice and yes, it was – write a great ballad. Her only concern was that she said, "Look, I write personal songs, how am I going to write about Bond?" I said, "Make it a personal song." "Nobody Does It Better" is an incredibly personal song, but they throw "The Spy Who Loved Me" into the middle of it. And she was like, "Oh okay." I said just write the song you want to write and try to apply it. But she wrote a song that was much more specific to the script, but I would have accepted anything. When you see the movie, it starts with "This is the end…" and he's going down and the opening sequence, it was always my idea, would be him going down into the water and down into the underworld. And she just got it.
How much involvement did you have in that title sequence?
Well I gave Danny Kleinman the sort of fundamental idea – that it's all about the house, the cave, the shadows, the arches, everything underground – but then he took it from there. He's very gifted and he put his own take on it. And it's pretty amazing.
What was the creative push-and-pull like with the powers that be? The common perception is that it's tough to get away with stuff in such an established franchise.
That's not true at all. I can only speak to my own experience, but I said, "Look, these are the things I want to do." And they said, "Look, it's your movie. Go do it." And it really felt like that throughout. I felt not a moment where they were telling me I couldn't do stuff because they didn't like it. Occasionally there were discussions about whether or not this was a "Bond thing to do" or not, but their opinions were almost always things I agreed with. I feel like they wanted me to make the best movie I could. It was my Bond movie and I needed to take it in a new and interesting direction. That's always what I felt. They're really generous and what makes them such remarkable producers is that they have the ability to make you feel like your vision is the most important thing.

Its interesting reading this and learning what Sam Mendes was trying to achieve. I am beyond excited for this new Bond movie, I love that it is taking a darker tone than any of the previous films. I will also be watching to see all of the shout outs to the previous movies; itâs nice that he thought to include those. To prepare for this movie, a coworker at DISH and I have been re-watching all of the previous ones. It is interesting to see how much they have changed throughout the years and how different Daniel Craig is from previous James Bonds. Watching the movies has been really easy with Blockbuster @Home from DISH. I love that you can get the DVD delivered through the mail, or exchange it in the store if we canât wait. This movie seems like it is going to really change the Bond movies from now on, and I am thrilled to watch that transformation.
Ed | November 6, 2012 8:02 PM
I'm going to be honest: I really didn't get into the film. I never felt any suspense - thanks to Thomas Newman's music (which sounded totally disconnected with what was on the screen), and the slow story line. The whole film felt lost to me, so I read this article to understand what Sam Mendes was trying to achieve. Now I don't think he knew either. It's not an especially dark film. Daniel Craig looked in top physical shape throughout, and immaculately dressed (very inconspicuous?) in Istanbul/opening sequence. The film was totally 2 dimensional, there was nothing to think about. It was more like an episode of the A-team towards the end. I think (re-)introducing 3 new permanent characters was an interesting step, but the audience was never given a reason to like them. In fact, all the characters (except Q) including Bond seemed completely incompetent at their jobs. We're also supposed to believe a sly army officer is somehow qualified to run mi6? There wasn't a scene that I found believable. The poor quality CGI didn't help. I hope there is a directors cut, which does this Bond episode more justice. I could go on about things that could have been done to a more authentic standard. But it may ruin it for others...

The movie is fantastic but My Lord the cinematography is on a whole nother level, so beautiful, so many iconic images... Great work by Mr. Deakins!

Good luck topping this one! Best action of 2012 next to The Dark Knight Rises. Thanks, Sam Mendes!

Business Network International or BNI as it is most commonly know is a great source of generating referral leads for your business.
We're in the midst of a recession and many people are looking to join business groups to try and drum up sales. But with all of the Internet's business networking opportunities, are offline business networking organizations still needed?
The world's largest business networking organization is the famous Business Network International (BNI). BNI groups are everywhere. Pick up a newspaper in any major city and you will find invitations to join these groups in your local community. Use a search engine with "your location" and "bni" as search terms and you will probably find one nearby.
The format consists of weekly breakfast meetings starting at 7 am and at 8.30 am. Each group is made up of one member of each trade or profession and the objective is for the members of the group to look out for business opportunities for each other and pass referrals.
If you go to any BNI breakfast meeting anywhere in the world you will experience the same format to every meeting and the running of the group. The successful groups are the ones that follow the system rigidly and in the spirit of Givers GainBNIs mantra.
You need to commit to understanding other people within the group and looking out for business opportunities for them. It takes time to understand another's business and develop enough trust to be able to recommend with confidence which is why meeting regularly with other at their place of busienss is essential.
If you have a group full of committed business networkers following the system like at bestbusiness.co.nz then BNI really works

I have read and read about flax seed and what it contains.
But how do you come to the conclusion that "I need to supplement my fat intake".
It is kind of confusing to me, since I have drastically reduced the "bad fats" in my
diet, should I possibly add some flax or other type of the so called "good oils" to my diet???
--- Sheik ---
Height - 5'6"
Weight - 185ish
It depends on your fat intake now. If currently only 15 percent of your cals come from fat and they're all from saturated sources, you should add some flax to your diet. However if 25% of your diet is fat and say, 10-15 of that fat is from a good source, you probably shouldnt supplement.
Ok.Shoot me now.
Only purpose of supplementing with flax is to get the omega3 EFAs. If you eat fatty fish or other sources of omega3, flax is not required.
Flax oil has also been linked with reducing cancer risks, reducing joint pains/muscular inflammation, fat loss and LDL cholestrol reduction
Budiak, all your fat intake is saturated ?
No, I wrote that in a confusing manner. 10-15% of calories from good fat and 10 % from other fats. Meaning half or so of the total fat is "good". I didnt mean to write it that way, sorry.

Clive: "I must confess that over the last few months I have been going through a real crisis of confidence regarding the 'Alchemy' shows and indeed my wishes to pursue the whole genre of musicals. It has proved organisationally complex, financially stressful and mentally draining... way beyond the more familiar parameters of the bands I am a part of. A while ago I came to the conclusion that writing another musical in the same style as 'She' or 'Alchemy' is something I don't think I can do. Locking myself away for another 4 years to produce something that is a pure 'long shot' seems to be a step too far. While I love this genre of entertainment, unfortunately I don't have the fame or 'popular credibility' to attract the interest of the big and essential producers... the ones who have the budget to really help... and believe me, every inch of this thing runs on money... big money!"
Find out more about Arena on the refurbished and updated website! You can learn all about the band's biography and discography, find the most recent reviews and interviews, check the stunning photo gallery and watch the video announcement of "The Unquiet Sky".

The tour will also be an opportunity to introduce Pendragon's new drummer, Craig Blundell.
Clive: "The works for the new album have been in full swing for months now and we are all very excited about it. There is still a lot to be done and it will still take time before the album eventually sees the light of the day, but the release date is getting closer and we are looking forward to the Autumn tour! Hope to see you at some of the dates!"

(WMC-TV) - Some people are suggesting a postponement of the Memphis City Schools and Shelby County Schools merger just one day after the Unified School Board passed a more bloated budget.
After a three and a half hour discussion, the Unified School Board voted to up the ante to $145 million.
"I think it's unrealistic, I think it's irresponsible," said board chairman Billy Orgel.
Orgel says it negated all of the hard work the superintendent and his staff did to come up with a feasible plan for funding the new district.
Things appear to be in such disarray that Shelby County Commissioner Terry Roland says he is hearing some want to postpone the merger altogether.
Meanwhile, he does not think the commission would approve the tax increase it would take to give the school board what it wants.
"They created this mess," said Roland. "I told them from the beginning they're going to break the county, the people couldn't afford it, and I don't think we have the numbers on the commission to get it."
A number of school board members realized their request was rather unreasonable but figured they would ask so real cutting could begin.
There is a budget retreat with the county commission planned for February 23.

Europe is generally agreed to be the birthplace of western culture, including such legendary innovations as the democratic nation-state, football and tomato sauce.
The word Europe comes from the Greek goddess Europa, who was kidnapped by Zeus and plunked down on the island of Crete. Europa gradually changed from referring to mainland Greece until it extended finally to include Norway and Russia.
Don't be confused that Europe is called a continent without looking like an island, the way the other continents do. It's okay. The Ural mountains have steadily been there to divide Europe from Asia for the last 250 million years. Russia technically inhabits "Eurasia".
Europe is presently uniting into one political and economic zone with a common currency called the Euro. The European Union originated in 1993 and is now composed of 27 member states. Its headquarters is in Brussels, Belgium.
Do not confuse the EU with the Council of Europe, which has 47 member states and dates to 1949. These two bodies share the same flag, national anthem, and mission of integrating Europe. The headquarters of the Council are located in Strasbourg, France, and it is most famous for its European Court of Human Rights.
In spite of these two bodies, there is still no single Constitution or set of laws applying to all the countries of Europe. Debate rages over the role of the EU in regards to national sovereignty. As of January 2009, the Lisbon Treaty is the closest thing to a European Constitution, yet it has not been approved by all the EU states.
