Why would an inn located in the deepest, remote wilds of Colombia have the very American-Southwest name of Gallows Hill? Perhaps that concern led GALLOWS HILL to be retitled THE DAMNED, or maybe that generic new moniker was chosen to reflect the familiarity of the movie itself, a smattering of creatively creepy moments notwithstanding.Read more »

In 2013, NECA got me—the ultimate non-collector—and a whole lot of you goons all riled up when they released a Jason Voorhees figure based on the 1989 FRIDAY THE 13TH Nintendo Game.

THE STRANGE COLOR OF YOUR BODY'S TEARS is unreal. Undoubtedly one of the best horror films this year, Hélène Cattet & Bruno Forzani's second full-length experimental giallo is a forceful, unrelenting work.

THE LORDS OF SALEM is both undoubtedly a Rob Zombie film and yet something of a departure.

MTN Probe Finds Allegations Untrue
Gallo Images
The probe had cleared MTN's former group president and CEO Phuthuma Nhleko and its former commercial director Irene Charnley, said MTN chairman Cyril Ramaphosa.
"Allegations of complicity against the chairman and the group president and [current] CEO Sifiso Dabengwa were similarly found to be without substance," he said.
The Turkish mobile operator Turkcell filed a US4 billion (about R35.5bn) lawsuit against MTN in a United States court last year.
It accused MTN of bribing Iranians and South Africans to acquire a mobile phone licence in Iran. Turkcell claimed that it initially had acquired the licence.
On Friday, Ramaphosa said the MTN board commissioned South African-born British judge Lord Hoffmann to investigate the allegations. His findings were presented to the MTN board.
"Lord Hoffmann's committee has determined that the Turkcell allegations are without foundation," Ramaphosa said.
"Lord Hoffmann concluded that he found nothing in the conduct of MTN over this period that puts at question MTN's integrity or propriety. This is a reassuring validation of MTN's culture and ethical business practices."
MTN said it expected the lawsuit in the US to be thrown out as soon as the supreme court had made its decision.

What is Cooperative Education?
Cooperative Education (Co-op) is a structured method program that offers students the opportunity to alternate periods of academic study with periods of work closely related to their major field of study. The combination of academic study and work produces an overall learning experience that gives greater meaning to students' studies and more direction to career development.
This program is non-compulsory; however, the University urges students to gain work experiences either through internships or cooperative education assignments prior to graduation. The program is student oriented and centralized in the Office of Career Services (OCS).
Who can participate?
Any undergraduate and graduate student formally enrolled in a degree-granting program at North Carolina A&T State University (N.C. A&T) can participate in the Co-op. Participants must establish and maintain at least 2.0 overall grade point average. Freshmen must complete their first academic year prior to the first work assignment. Transfer students must complete one semester. Students must be registered with the Office of Career Services.
- Participants must establish and maintain at least a 2.0 overall grade point average.
- Freshmen must complete their first academic year prior to the first work assignment.
- Transfer students must complete one semester.
- Students must be register with the Office of Career Services.
Types of Co-op
There are two types of co-op assignments, alternating and parallel. Alternating co-op assignment is the most common type. This allows the student to travel to another city, state, or country and work full-time as a cooperative education student, enrolling only in the cooperative course. Parallel co-op assignment allows the student to go to school and work at the same time.

The action, which was organised by Greenpeace with help from other NGOs across Germany and Poland, was meant to show solidarity with villagers in the south-west of Poland and south-east of Germany whose homes and livelihoods are to be destroyed if plans to expand coal mines by PGE in Poland and Vattenfal in Germany are to go ahead.

Bankwatch Mail | August 8, 2014
EU member states and the European Commission, after what has felt like a marathon two-year process, are now engaged in finalising agreements on the EU's Structural and Cohesion Funds (ESIF) investment strategies and spending plans for the 2014 -2020 EU budget period.
Where the 11 'new' member states of central and eastern Europe (CEE) are concerned, their approach to economic and societal development via the EU funds is proving to be a double-edged sword: while their spending plans for climate action is set to increase ten-fold in comparison to the 2007-2013 period, and the 'greenest Cohesion Policy legislation ever' prevents them from committing major environmental crimes, a reasonable long-term investment strategy, and financing, to achieve the decarbonisation of these economies by 2050 is noticeably lacking.
Institution: EU Funds
Theme: Energy & climate, Transport, Resource efficiency, Social & economic impacts
The European Investment Bank, the biggest multilateral public bank in the world by lending volume and the self-styled 'EU bank', has recently announced that it will be reviewing its approach to climate change in the coming months. According to comments made by EIB vice-president Philippe de Fontaine Vive to civil society representatives, "The EIB wants to position itself between this October's anticipated EU 2030 climate agreement and the Paris COP 21 meeting in December 2015".
Institution: EIB
Theme: Energy & climate
Mathieu Fichter, Team Leader on 'Sustainable Growth' in the European Commission's Regional and Urban Policy directorate (DG Regio), and Markus Trilling, EU Funds coordinator for Bankwatch and Friends of the Earth Europe, discuss and reflect on the challenges and opportunities that are being thrown up as we enter the final negotiating stages in the programming process for the EU budget 2014-2020.
Theme: Energy & climate, Transport, Resource efficiency
Bankwatch's Czech co-ordinator Ondřej Pašek takes time out from EU funds programming documentation digging to describe just one little alarming discovery.
Location: Czech Republic
Whether at the global level with the United Nations Framework of Programmes on Sustainable Consumption and Production, the European level with the Environment Action Programme to 2020, or at the national level, a great deal of effort is being made to promote, develop and expand sustainable lifestyles and production. Such efforts should be tailor-made for receiving financial support from the EU funds.
Location: Hungary
The Czech government's plan to phase out part of its lignite-fired power plant fleet by 2025 has hit the news recently with total annual power output from this climate-damaging source set to drop from 40 TWh in 2015 to 18 TWh by 2035. However the increased electricity consumption projected in the very same planning scenarios, that over time will eliminate the country's current high energy export share and shift it instead onto an import dependency path, places an unfortunate question mark over just how serious the Czech Republic is about its transition to becoming an energy efficient, low-carbon economy.
Theme: Energy & climate, Resource efficiency
Some Czech projects proposed for EU funding are already sticking out as 'white elephant' investments. As the final spending decisions for 2014-2020 shape up, Bankwatch will be keeping a close eye on the likely stampede of similar project concepts all across central and eastern Europe.
Theme: Resource efficiency
As Latvia's authorities look to finalise EU funds allocations for the 2014-2020 period, the nation's energy supply – where it is sourced from and how it is being used – remains the elephant in the room. As in every economy, energy is a crucial sector, with significant influence over the overall national economy and its development. An ambition and a challenge for Latvia is how to improve its energy independence, and quickly.

There have been those who burst onto the scene, burned bright and faded fast, some have been dedicated clubmen who have been there for the craic and the joy of racing all carried along by the distant hope that they might sneak a win. Others have been quick but just not quick... [Read more...]

The often silly elements of the plot dilute the majesty of the Chinese culture which it traverses, and the childish nature of the magical elements dilute the film's appeal outside a narrow target audience of undemanding kids
Ben McCammon
"dilute the majesty of the Chinese culture" - Obviously you seem to think this movie is a documentary. The Mummy series has always been an action comedy, please rate it as such. Go back to giving gold stars to arty farty movies that no-one cares about you pinky waving prat.

when i saw this movie it really did not have to match any despcription you just made, you truly have no emotions, the whole mummy series is supposed to be somewhat silly to uppeal to the audience, you know get a little laughs, and what the hell are you talking about diluting the majesty of the chinese culture? do you even know what the hell entertaining is you ***-hole?

text: It seems we always find a way to look like the worst college basketball team in the ACC. Virginia scored more points in the first half than we scored in the entire game! Let that sink in. I have never seen that before. That is truly unbelievable. That is more than a blowout, that is senseless. Another thing that I don't understand is why our highly regarded freshmen never seen to be able to come in and be major contributors like they do at other programs. Why is that? So now we have a football team that is as bad as I have ever seen it, a basketball team that will be lucky to win 4 conference games. I'm not joking about that. Instead of getting better, I think we are regressing. And the football team is hopeless for the next 3 or 4 years at least. It is very frustrating.

Carmela walks into Meadow's room and finds her talking to her old friend, Hunter. Carmela greets Hunter warmly and wants to catch up. Hunter jokes that she was kicked out of college for partying too much, and then reveals that she's cleaned up her act and she's now in her second year of medical school. Carmela's face falls, and she quickly tells Meadow that the Parisi family will be there soon and practically runs out of the room. Ha! I still don't get why medical school is so much better than law school, but whatever. Carmela's inability to disguise her disappointment was funny.
Tony and Carmela visit with Patsy and Mrs. Patsy Parisi (Donna Pescow! I know I already mentioned that), along with Meadow and Patrick. I guess this is the parents sort of putting their stamp of approval on the relationship. Mrs. Parisi tries to tell a joke, but she totally screws it up, so Patsy tells it for her and everyone chuckles politely. Tony asks about Jason Parisi, and Mrs. Patsy says she didn't think he was invited. Carmela says that she didn't think he'd be interested in wedding talk. When did Meadow and Patrick get engaged? Did I miss that? Tony won't leave it alone, and wants to talk about Jason Gervasi. Patsy and his wife agree that Jason G. is a mess, and Tony lightens the mood by saying there's no shortage of lawyers in the room, should he need one. Carmela tells Tony that Patsy needs a refill. Not used to being served by Tony, Patsy goes to fill his own glass, but Tony won't let him. Mrs. Parisi subtly checks the bottom of the china. Nice character detail. I'm kind of sad this is the only episode she'll ever be in, and I wonder why she never got the nod to hang out with Carmela's crew. Tony ribs Meadow for only taking on charity law cases. Patrick reveals that his boss talked to Meadow about working for them when she finished law school, and was talking about a starting salary of $170,000. The dude must know she's Tony's daughter; who offers someone a job at a top law firm when they've barely started law school? Patrick dishes about their current case, where they're defending a government official accused of corruption. Carmela's smile fades as she realizes that Meadow would be getting involved the same life Tony and Carmela worked so hard to shelter her from, in many ways.
At Satriale's, the orange cat is staring at the photo of Christopher on the wall. Walden tells Paulie that the cat does that all the time. Paulie is freaked out. Walden keeps talking about cats, and how they're weird. Paulie orders Walden to get rid of the cat, and then picks up a broom himself to whack the cat or something. But Tony walks in, so Paulie pretends he was just sweeping the floor. Ha! Paulie fills Tony in on the cat's behavior, like Tony doesn't have bigger fish to fry. He asks Walden to leave for a minute, but first Paulie asks why an Italian dude is named Walden. He says he was named after Bobby Darin: "Walden Robert Cassotto." I guess that's Bobby Darin's real name; I thought it was Walden's real name, and I was very confused because I thought his last name was Belfiore. Which it is. Anyway, Paulie and Tony sit down. Tony asks Paulie to take over the Cifaretto crew now that Carlo is "absent." Tony says it's a ton of money, but Paulie doesn't seem very excited. Paulie asks if he can mull it over a little and claims he doesn't want to die and leave Tony in lurch again. He reminds Tony, "I had the prostate." Tony agrees to let Paulie think it over, but he looks annoyed and slightly confused. Paulie walks outside and looks deeply troubled.
