The falsehoods and exaggerations — need I say, the hysteria — surrounding the Irish orphanage story has been a sorry spectacle for those who love the craft of reporting. The first reports of a mass grave in a septic tank containing up to 800 unbaptized babies at a Catholic orphanage has been proven to be false as have many of the other extraordinary claims of incredible, monstrous behavior.
The push back began almost immediately, however, as reporters began to examine the claims in detail. The Associated Press printed a correction on June 20, 2014, stating:
In stories published June 3 and June 8 about young children buried in unmarked graves after dying at a former Irish orphanage for the children of unwed mothers, The Associated Press incorrectly reported that the children had not received Roman Catholic baptisms; documents show that many children at the orphanage were baptized. The AP also incorrectly reported that Catholic teaching at the time was to deny baptism and Christian burial to the children of unwed mothers; although that may have occurred in practice at times it was not church teaching. In addition, in the June 3 story, the AP quoted a researcher who said she believed that most of the remains of children who died there were interred in a disused septic tank; the researcher has since clarified that without excavation and forensic analysis it is impossible to know how many sets of remains the tank contains, if any. The June 3 story also contained an incorrect reference to the year that the orphanage opened; it was 1925, not 1926.
Note the subordinate clause in the second to last sentence — "if any."
The story has shifted from 800 unbaptized dead babies in a septic tank to an acknowledgement that there might not be any bodies in the tank. For a detailed study of this sorry chapter in journalism I recommend the Catholic League's Bill Donohue's paper "Ireland's 'mass grave' hysteria."
The revelation that this is a junk story has not stopped some newspapers from adding their own exclusive revelations.
France awoke a few days ago to the news that the 796 dead babies in the septic tank were the subjects of medical experimentation, according to L'Humanité. The dead children may have been (not the conditional tense) the victims of experimental vaccinations by the British company GlaxoSmithKline carried out with the blessings of the Catholic Church and the Irish State.
Il y a trois semaines, 796 cadavres de nourrissons nés hors mariage entre 1925 et 1961 ont été exhumés d'une fosse commune à côté du couvent ?de Tuam. Un taux de mortalité supérieur à la moyenne qui fait craindre que ces « baby homes » aient été le lieu d'essais vaccinaux sur des bébés.
Three weeks ago the remains of 796 infants born out of wedlock between 1925 and 1961 were exhumed from a mass grave near a convent in Tuam. This higher than average mortality rate raises concerns that these "baby homes" were the scene of vaccination trials on infants.
The article, which is behind a pay wall, approaches the story through the concerns of Susan Lohan, the co-founder of an adoption rights alliance.

Pick up for the tour today was just a five minute walk from our hotel. Leaving Boston we drove up the State Street side of the common and our driver told us that one of the brownstone terraces overlooking the common had sold last year for $52 million dollars.

Outstanding experience!
Wife, 3 kids - 13, 11, and 8 with a Golden retriever in the middle of a 24" snow storm- perfect. The owner accepted a credit card and listened to my situation. He upgraded our unit just like that. He was available by phone at all times and was warm and considerate! The caretaker stopped by to say hello. We needed nothing but he stopped by to let us know we could check out late and if the weather got bad, since no one else was staying that night we could stay N/C. The property- awesome ! space, comfort and a breath away from Gore! The people and the place are fabulous! We will return next year! If you have a family this is a win win!!!
Idyllic setting for a family vacation.
Had a wonderful week at the Alderbrook Lodge with 22 family members ranging in age from 2 years old to 83 years old. We rented both homes (Lodge and Chalet) which comfortably accommodated all of us. The private lake was perfect for family members to fish, boat and swim - and was a peaceful break from the noise and crowds of Lake George. Early morning coffee each day on the porch overlooking the lake with my 83 year old mother is a memory I will always cherish. The kitchen in the Lodge was spacious and well equipped to feed our large crowd. The Lodge is only minutes from Bolton Landing's shopping and restaurants and easily accessible from the Thruway. All in all, it was a perfect family vacation and we plan to return for future vacations!

Nintendo announced today that its next console, the Nintendo Wii, will not exceed $250 in America (or 25,000 yen in Japan). While not an exact price, it's at least definitive confirmation that the Wii will easily be the cheapest console this holiday season. The company also announced that it plans to ship 6 million systems worldwide between the system's launch in Q4 2006 and the end of its fiscal year on March 31st, 2007, and that it expects to sell 17 million Wii games in the same time frame.
In all, Nintendo expects to see growth of 18% in sales globally, which is based on anticipated strong demand for the Nintendo DS and a successful launch of Wii.
Nintendo promises more details soon, including launch dates, the launch titles, and further details on the Virtual Console. Hopefully we'll also get an exact price soon as well, rather than a vague "will not exceed $250."

CATEGORIES Horror, The Weinstein Co., Remakes and Sequels, CinematicalI covered the very cool Texas Fearfest for Comcast's FEARnet last March, and one of the very entertaining filmmakers I got to chat with was Feast director John Gulager. (Goofy video interview here.) The guy all but promised a sequel, but since things were still in the very early stages, nothing was even remotely locked in or "news-worthy." (Actors and filmmakers talk sequels all the time, especially in the horror division, and lots of 'em just never materialize.) But here's some pretty excellent news for you Feast-hungry fans: We're probably looking at a pair of sequels!
While talking to Fangoria, Feast and Saw 4 co-writer Marcus Dunston (who was also at Fearfest!) let it be known that on top of the two new Feasts, we can also expect a veritable salad bar of sloppy gore goodness: "Feast 2 and 3 are coming together, with [director John] Gulager back ... with the vulgarities we've currently scripted, and if we don't get deported, we just may have the NC-17-rated monsterfest that was only hinted at in the first film." Dang, sounds good to me!
For those who haven't Feasted yet, I'll remind you that the Project Greenlight flick, while certainly not a flawless piece of genre gristle, is a fast-paced, well-cast, admirably gooey and perfectly enjoyable concoction. Despite the Weinsteins' uncertainty on how to handle the flick, I'd say it's definitely found a place in the gorehounds' collective heart since it hit video last year. Good to know that Dunston, Gulager and co-writer Patrick Melton will be back on board, at the very least. The retention of the original creative team gives one a little more hope than usual.

Interviewing anti-apartheid activists and music legends like Quincy Jones, Harry Belafonte, Paul McCartney and David Byrne, Berlinger's (Crude, Paradise Lost) new doc explores both the anatomy of a musical masterwork and the responsibilities of art. -- (C) IFC Center

The result is doubly satisfying: We get not only a trenchant political drama but a bang-up concert film as well.
The affection between the musicians and Simon is clear. The portrait that emerges time and again is personal and a reflection of the realities of apartheid.
[It] does an excellent job of recapitulating the controversies surrounding the album's creation without bearing down too heavily on old news, while subtly taking Mr. Simon's side against his critics.
It's a pleasant surprise that Under African Skies not only draws attention to the controversy surrounding its subject matter but digs into it a little.
A harmonious, fair-minded, energetic and enlightening portrait of one masterpiece's moment in time.
Powered by Paul Simon's brilliance, Under African Skies is a cultural lightning bolt that soars on its music and an unshakable belief in the transcendence of art.
UNDER AFRICAN SKIES is much smarter and more profound than most music documentaries. It's a powerful, beautifully executed film that entertains, informs and questions.
It's a blissful film, this work by Berlinger and co., a sheer privilege for the viewer to spend such quality time UNDER AFRICAN SKIES.
This absorbing documentary takes an up-close and intimate look at the musicians' creative process, then zooms out to recall the political turmoil that this landmark album left in its wake.
Under African Skies takes what could have been a puff piece glossing over the protestations related to Graceland and teaches the controversy.
It does lightly suggest scintillating questions about the responsibility artists have in reflecting current political moments in their music.
Berlinger's doc expertly captures the debate of the time and where it's at now, 25 years later.

What's tougher, Gorilla Glass or Sapphire? The answer might surprise you
Depending on who and when you ask, the iPhone 6 may or may not ship with a futuristic new Sapphire Glass display. Widely rumored to be nigh-invulnerable, Sapphire Glass is widely believed to be the technology that will make shattered iPhones a thing of the past. But will it really?
Seeking answers, the repair experts over at uBreakiFix have taken a piece of Gorilla Glass and a piece of Sapphire Glass through a series of torture tests to see which resists damage better. And the truth is that Sapphire isn't actually as good as Gorilla Glass in one key scenario.

Jennifer Lopez has added a couple of more trophies to her block.
The pop star and "American Idol" judge was honored Saturday night at the 25th annual GLAAD Media Awards with the Vanguard Award, which lauds efforts to increase visibility and understanding of the gay, lesbian, bisexual or transgender community. In addition to being an outspoken advocate for gay rights, Lopez serves as executive producer of the ABC Family series "The Fosters," which centers on a lesbian couple raising their children. "The Fosters" also won the award for outstanding drama series.
Other winners at the Beverly Hilton Hotel ceremony included NBC's "Days of Our Lives" for daily drama, Fuse's "Big Freedia: Queen of Bounce" for reality program, Tegan and Sara for music artist and "Young Avengers" for comic book. "Bridegroom" and "Call Me Kuchu" tied for the outstanding documentary trophy.
"Orange is the New Black" star Laverne Cox was presented with the Stephen F. Kolzak Award, which is given to a gay, lesbian, bisexual or transgender member of the entertainment community. Previous recipients include Wanda Sykes, Rufus Wainwright, Melissa Etheridge, Ellen DeGeneres and Ian McKellen.
Norman Lear, the veteran producer of such sitcoms as "All in the Family" and "Maude," was honored with the Pioneer Award.
The awards salute fair, accurate and inclusive representation in media of the gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender community and the issues that affect their lives. Other winners will be presented at a New York ceremony on May 3.

A former school district employee on northern Vancouver Island faces child pornography charges.
RCMP in Port McNeill, 350 kilometres northwest of Nanaimo, say 45-year-old Timothy Joseph Ouellette faces one count of possession of child porn and another charge of possession for the purpose of distribution or sale.
Charges were laid Nov. 9, more than seven months after Mounties raided Ouellette's Port McNeill home and seized several pieces of evidence.
Officers say Ouellette has since moved away from Port McNeill and an RCMP release does not indicate what position he held with the school district.
While Ouellette is free on bail, he must not use the Internet or have contact with children under 14 years of age.
He next court date is set for Nov. 20 in provincial court in Port Hardy.

Dueling for Defibrillators
Updated from 1:34 p.m. EST
Boston Scientific (BSX) served up a shocker Monday with an unsolicited offer for fellow medical-device maker Guidant (GDT), trumping a revised bid from rival Johnson & Johnson (JNJ).
The cash and stock offer from Boston Scientific is worth $25 billion, or $72 a share. That's about $3 billion more than a recently revised offer by J&J for Indianapolis-based Guidant.
However, it's also about $4 a share less than the original cash and stock offer that J&J made last year. A series of recalls of Guidant products following the first bid prompted J&J to reduce its offer on Nov. 15. The revised J&J deal was worth $63.08 at the middle of last month and was valued at $63.43 as of Friday.The boards of Guidant and J&J approved the revised offer, which still must be endorsed by the companies' shareholders. Guidant acknowledged receipt of the Boston Scientific bid, saying its board would consider it. J&J, based in New Brunswick, N.J., had no immediate comment. The announcement by Boston Scientific -- whose market capitalization of $22.5 billion is about one-eighth the size of J&J's and about the same as Guidant's -- touched off furious trading among the three players. Shares of Boston Scientific were erratic, falling as low as $25.51 and climbing as high as $27.73. The stock closed at $26.35, down 98 cents, or 3.6% on the day. Roughly 38 million shares traded, or more than eight times the average daily volume for the past three months. Guidant jumped $6.16, or 10%, to $67.98, after going as high as $68.20, while J&J lost 16 cents to $61.05. Volume in both was heavy. "We are surprised by this latest turn of events," says Joann Wuensch of Harris Nesbitt in a research note to clients. She retained her neutral rating on Boston Scientific. "Given Boston Scientific's market capitalization ... this appears to be a big nut to crack." She doesn't own shares, and her firm doesn't have an investment banking relationship.

ALLENDALE, MI (WHTC) - A 60-year-old Holland woman tried to get around a turning truck yesterday afternoon and got into an accident south of Allendale. According to Ottawa County Sheriff's Sergeant Dean DeVries, Joan Baumann was driving westbound on Fillmore Street and attempted to swerve around the semi ahead of her that was turning right onto 68th Avenue, while Kayla Kempenaar was turning left from 68th onto Fillmore Street and slammed into Baumann's vehicle. The force of the broadside collision drove Baumann's vehicle off of the roadway, causing it to roll over and land on its side adjacent to a tree. Rescue crews had to extricate Baumann, and she was taken to Holland Hospital for treatment of non-life threatening injuries. Kempenaar, whose age and hometown wasn't disclosed, suffered no ailments. The crash remains under investigation.

Something I've learned from my years working in the sporting corner of the internet is that you should never mix politics with sports. People get very, very upset about this. So we'll just present the results of this study by GOP firm National Media Inc. for entertainment purposes only, and without comment (although feel free to share you thoughts below). What they found, in part, after surveying 218,000 Americans:↵
- ↵
- PGA fans are the most Republican and the most likely to vote ↵
- All major sports draw more Republican fans, except the NBA, which skews way left
- NBA fans also least likely to vote of the major sports ↵
- NCAA Football fans are most Republican of the major sports ↵
- WNBA fans are the furtherest to the left ↵
- MLB is the most politically neutral of the major sports ↵

Johns Creek works on its 2013 budget
August 29, 2012
JOHNS CREEK, Ga. — Johns Creek City Council reviewed the proposed budget for 2013 during its work session on Aug. 20.
City Finance Director Monte Vavra said this year's fiscal obligations include competitive bid contracts for city services and public safety operations such as police and fire services.
Together, these requirements account for about 62.5 percent of the complete budget.
Other expenditures include economic development and neighborhood infrastructure programs, a focus on facilities such as an emergency operations center to be opened in City Hall and a uniformed volunteer police force.
One new expenditure will send funds to Shakerag Park for new programming and capital improvement for its fields.
"We're doing all of this without increasing the budget," said John Kachmar, city manager for Johns Creek. "We're increasing services with the same amount of money and the same amount of staff directed to this."
The total expenditures in the 2013 budget amount to $52.2 million.
The money to cover these costs will come from anticipated revenues produced through the city's various funds.
The largest amount will come from the general fund, with anticipated revenues of $45.6 million.
The general fund includes $16 million from local option sales tax and another $15 million from property taxes.
"At the end of the day, the one thing that's been consistent is we've never used more than we have," Mayor Mike Bodker said. "I'm excited because I think [our projects] get all over the city."
At the conclusion of the meeting, Bodker requested each council member discuss the proposed budget with his or her staff before the city council meeting on Aug. 27.
The final budget is scheduled to be adopted at the council meeting on Sept. 10.

The Tayside/Perthshire region
This region has a contrasting landscape of lochs, mountains, forests and coastline and it's therefore no coincidence that it's one of the most popular holiday destinations in Scotland. Its popularity is easy to understand when you consider the mouth watering attractions within its boundaries; which include the beautiful Loch Lomond and the Trossachs National Park in the west and the wonderful forests, mountains and rivers which are characteristic of Tayside and Perthshire to the east. The city of Stirling can also be found in this area, with its rich historical significance in Scottish history and connections to William Wallace and Robert the Bruce. The beautiful and unique coastlines here, both on the west coast and east coast, are ideal holiday destinations. Stretching in the west from Oban in the north down to Strathclyde and the Ayr coast, and in the east the coast extends from Dundee and Angus south the along the Fife coast to Edinburgh.
Located in the Perth and Kinross region of Scotland, Cart Shed is perfect for those looking to explore the many sights and attractions waiting to be found. Renowned as 'The Big Tree Country', one of Britain's tallest trees stands at over 64 metres tall in the Hermitage grounds and forms part of some of the most stunning landscapes in all of Scotland. As well as fantastic natural surroundings, there are also a number of enticing activities on offer ranging from water sports on its many Rivers and Lochs, to bungee jumping at Pitlochry. For a more relaxing time, there are wide ranging attractions to see like the award winning Scottish Crannog Centre, a unique reconstruction of an Iron-Age loch dwelling giving guided tours and the chance to see what life was like 2500 years ago

Perfect cottage in a beautiful peaceful location, with outstanding views accross the glen. The Cart Shed is spacious and furnished to a very high standard. Fantastic base for exploring the cities, towns, countryside, and coastline of this beautiful part of Scotland. We could have spent a month in the area and still found something new to see and do every day.
Owners very friendly without being intrusive, and not forgetting Max the sheepdog who welcomed us home every evening. Overall a perfect, friendly, relaxing and amazing place for a great holiday. Will be recommending The Cart Shed to friends and family and will definitely be returning.

"A beautifully appointed property in the most wonderful landscape"
What a beautiful area, looking towards the Lomond Hills. A quiet house with wonderful scenery, modern, clean and well-equipped. We stayed over Christmas and loved the log stove. Home-made shortbread on arrival to die for.
This house for two had a connecting door to next cottage for 4 more if required.

15 Things Apple Should Change in Mac OS X 936
from the twitching-the-tiger dept.
The problem isn't that the users don't "get" OSX. OSX is just an operating system. You're talking about it like it's the hardest quantum theory any mere mortal could never hope to understand.
Quite true. The problem isn't not learning OS X, the problem is not unlearning Windows. "Take up the whole fucking screen with this window" makes sense in a GUI that's based on tiling (and, despite overlapping windows having been introduced in W95, Windows is still more of a tiling GUI--no differentiation between windows and applications, menu bars in every window, etc.). The Mac GUI isn't about tiling, so the "take up the whole fucking screen with this window" functionality doesn't mesh as well with the rest of the GUI. When I work in Windows, I always want to "take up the whole fucking screen with this window" because that keeps the menu bar in a predictable location. Windows, in effect, isn't really a single multitasking workspace so much as an implementation of multiple workspaces, with one application/window/form per workspace. The motivation behind wanting Mac OS X to "take up the whole fucking screen with this window" stems partly from being stuck in the Windows singletasking frame of mind, and partly from boneheaded software vendors who design the same UI for all OS's so that Photoshop or Office has to take up the whole fucking screen by design. (Mac-only software often has a minimalist UI that can peacefully coexist with other windows and applications, unless it actually requires that much space. Tasks that are usually done with space-sucking toolbars get put into Inspector windows and such.)
Nonetheless, there's nothing stopping you from making a single Mac OS X window take up the whole fucking screen. Just hide the dock, move your window into the top left corner, and resize it until it takes up the entire screen. It's just a pointless and silly task in the Mac GUI so there's no easy shortcut for it.
"The vast majority of successful major crimes against property are perpetrated by individuals abusing positions of trust." -- Lawrence Dalzell
