Nationals showcase 'Cats' storied, dominant athletes
– Dominic Baez, managing editor
Three track and field athletes will put a year's worth of practice in action as they participate in the NCAA Division III Track and Field Championships at the University of Wisconsin-Oshkosh today.
Sophomores Josh and Jeremy Lovell are competing in the decathlon at nationals, held at J.J. Keller Field
at Titan Stadium.
Josh totalled 3,598 points on the first day of competition, placing second in the high jump and fourth in the 100-meter dash and the long jump. He is in second
place overall.
Josh ranks second in the the decathlon with 6,798 points, and Jeremy Lovell, who earned All-America honors at last year's decathlon, ranks seventh in the division this season with 6,630 points.
Jeremy kept pace with his brother, finishing sixth overall after placing fifth in the 100-meter dash and third in the long jump.
The two-day, 10-event competition for the Lovell brothers started yesterday at noon and continues through Saturday afternoon.
Senior Casey Stepan competed in a qualifying heat of the 1,500-meter run, but her efforts were not enough to earn her a bid to the next day of competition.
Stepan took a brief lead, then broke free of the pack on the second lap, but was passed by runners on the closing lap. Her seventh-place finish was three spots short of what was needed to advance.
For Stepan it was a race that marked the end of her illustrious career as a
Wildcat. She finishes her time at the school with nine varsity letters and ranks third on the all-time list for the 1,500.
Several Linfield athletes fell short of reaching provisional marks for nationals.
Freshman Brooke Carstensen broke the school record twice in the pole vault, first at the Oregon Twilight meet and again at the John Knight meet the next night, and met the NCAA provisional mark. Though she was able to meet the qualifying height in her event, she was unable to outjump the rest of the competition, setting her just behind the cutoff point.
"I was half an inch off," Carstensen said. "I'm kind of disappointed. I'm never completely happy with myself until I completely annihilate everybody. Overall, I am happy with
the year."
Along with setting a new Linfield record, Carstensen was also awarded most outstanding female track athlete by the team, and she has already started training for next year's nationals.
Senior Harrison Wilson also came close to making the provisional ark, just two seconds shy.
However, he did run the 5000 with a time of 14:50.18, number eight all-time, at the Oregon Twilight meet.
"It was a fast year," Wilson said. "There are no more meets left for me; it's kind of crazy. (It's) a good thing because you don't want to be in college forever, but (it's) bad because I will miss my teammates."
For Josh and Jeremy Lovell, the second day of the decathalon today brings the last five events.
They will compete in the 110-meter hurdles, discus, pole vault, javelin and 1,500-meter run.

CAROLINE CO., Md. - Dive teams and rescue personnel are still
actively searching for a missing boater in the Choptank River, but the
chances he will be found alive aren't promising, especially with search
crews no longer calling it a rescue effort, but a recovery effort.
morning, folks were out on the water enjoying the Choptank River,
admittedly unaware that an active search for a missing boater was
Around 4:30pm, Saturday, near Two Johns Road, police
say a 32 year-old man from Greensboro, Maryland hopped off a boat for a
"He was about 30 yards from the boat he was swimming
from when he went under the water and he did not resurface," says Sgt.
Brian Albert of the Maryland Natural Resource Police.
Since the
man went missing Saturday evening, divers have been sent out, the NRP is
using sonar technology, and they are combing the Choptank River, in
hopes of finding the victim.Boaters familiar with this area of
the Choptank say swimming can be risky since it can be very deep in the
middle, and muddy near the shore. No matter the conditions, DNR urges
boaters to view incidents like this as a warning that accidents can
happen anywhere, anytime.
Also on Saturday, a woman died in the Chesapeake Bay, near Turkey Point in Anne Arundel County. Sgt.
Albert stresses, "you cannot, you don't know how hard the tides are
running or currents in rivers or tributaries. So we recommend just wear
your life jacket."
In the case of the boater missing in the
Choptank, police are still withholding the victim's name since the
family has not yet been notified.
Aside from this case, there have been 5 drownings in Maryland this year alone.
Officers with the department of natural resources say the search at the
Choptank River will be active in some capacity, until the victim is

So not about the Hawks, but more frustration I must vent about Sports Writing/Talk. This way, meeshak, you know exactly what you're getting into.
The sports writing/talk, all over, not just in Chicago, is pants-shittingly dumb. Every day it seems they just are using some AP MadLib.
The newest 'stat,' as I have heard them refer to it, sounds something like this. The team that wins Game X has an N% chance of winning the series. ESPN has brought me to the edge. Their headline this morning, in reference to the NBA Finals, "Three is the new Seven." No. No. No. (Did I say No 7 times there?) Also, every damned analyst, writer, talker(?) says the next game becomes a must win game. You lost Game 1, you don't want to be down 2-0, so Game 2 is must win. Argh. They make me so angry I begin typing out pirate noises.
I get it, every game is super-duper, please-read-my-blog, oh-shit-i-just-kicked-the-cat-when-a-puck-slid-through-the-goal-mouth, important.
Also, I feel awkward watching my sports casters on TV standing and talking. ESPN is very guilty of this. What the hell is going on? Are they going to lead us in the pledge of allegiance? Should I stand? No one wants to have to see Hannah Storm's or Linda Cohn's knees either, wear some suit pants ladies. CSN has it sometimes, but mostly they're behind a desk, thank you.
I have no conclusion to end this fanpost.

JACKSON, Mich. (WLNS) - Jackson residents have been talking trash all month after city council passed an ordinance mandating all residents use the same company for their garbage removal. The city says it will save money, but residents aren't convinced, causing some to circulate a petition to repeal the ordinance.
"The meeting was packed with people who were against this ordinance. It didn't make a difference, they went ahead and passed it anyhow," said Eugene Proscheck, a Jackson resident.
Jackson Mayor Martin Griffin said some neighborhoods just don't have adequate trash removal and the city spent $80,000 last year, picking up trash for people who don't do it themselves.
"The fact that everyone will have it. We will no longer be spending money to pick up trash at houses that doesn't have service," said Mayor Griffin.
Proschek is circulating a petition to repeal the ordinance. People who are signing it want a say in the matter.
"The only reason i signed this petition is because we didn't have a chance to vote on it as a resident of this city," said Rev. Michael Poole.
"I think it's a violation of individual rights to make a choice," said resident Booker Walker.
Griffin says other communities like Parma and Concord have single trash haulers and privatizing garbage removal in Jackson will help the city run more efficiently.

I should know; I worked on it. Produced by Marv Newland at his Vancouver studio "International Rocketship", it first aired as a CBS Halloween special (Larson threw a party for the crew at the Pan Pacific Hotel where we watched the film on a big screen) and was later entered into the 1995 Annecy International Animated Film Festival, where it won the Grand Prix. It spawned a sequel "Tales From the Far Side II" (1997) - I worked on that too. Here it is, below.

Marie writes: It's a long story and it starts with a now famous video of a meteor exploding over Chelyabinsk, Russia. Followed by alien conspiracies fueled by the internet and which led me to investigate further. Where did it come from? Does anyone know..? Yes! According to The NewScientist, the rock came from the Apollo family of near-Earth asteroids, which follow an elongated orbit that occasionally crosses Earth's path.That in turn led me to yet another site and where I learned a team of scientists had discovered two moons around Pluto, and asked the public to vote on potential names. They also accepted write-in votes as long as they were taken from Greek and Roman mythology and related to Hades and the underworld - keeping to the theme used to name Pluto's three other moons. And how I eventually learned "Vulcan" has won Pluto's moon-naming poll! and thanks to actor William Shatner who suggested it. Behold Vulcan: a little dot inside a green circle and formally known as P5.

Marie writes: The late John Alton is widely regarded as being one of greatest film noir cinematographers to have ever worked in Film. He perfected many of the stylized camera and lighting techniques of the genre, including radical camera angles, wide-angle lenses, deep focus compositions, the baroque use of low-level cameras and a sharp depth of field. His groundbreaking work with director Anthony Mann on films such "TMen" and "Raw Deal" and "He Walked by Night" is considered a benchmark in the genre, with "The Big Combo" directed by Joseph H. Lewis, considered his masterpiece. John Alton also gained fame as the author of the seminal work on cinematography: "Painting with Light".

Marie writes: Not too long ago, Monaco's Oceanographic Museum held an exhibition combining contemporary art and science, in the shape of a huge installation by renowned Franco-Chinese artist Huang Yong Ping, in addition to a selection of films, interviews and a ballet of Aurelia jellyfish.The sculpture was inspired by the sea, and reflects upon maritime catastrophes caused by Man. Huang Yong Ping chose the name "Wu Zei"because it represents far more than just a giant octopus. By naming his installation "Wu Zei," Huang added ambiguity to the work. 'Wu Zei' is Chinese for cuttlefish, but the ideogram 'Wu' is also the color black - while 'Zei' conveys the idea of spoiling, corrupting or betraying. Huang Yong Ping was playing with the double meaning of marine ink and black tide, and also on corruption and renewal. By drawing attention to the dangers facing the Mediterranean, the exhibition aimed to amaze the public, while raising their awareness and encouraging them to take action to protect the sea.

Ben Affleck's "The Town" (2010) is an impressive effort from a third time director whose acting choices almost derailed his Hollywood career. With the clear exception of "Changing Lanes" (2002), this film is better than everything he ever did before and the reason is simple: instead of choosing to be involved in another blockbuster wannnabe, Affleck wrote, directed and starred in this heartfelt project about a fascinating borough that he seems familiar with. It is also a work of numerous, obvious inspirations, raising the question of whether said fact makes it any less worthy.
I love the Dark Knight Trilogy for one simple reason: it gave me the permission that I didn't know I was looking for to dislike all the rest of the Superhero movies. The high point of my dislike came in the highly ambitious "The Avengers" of this past summer. Don't get the wrong idea: as far as superhero movies go, it is one of the best, or at least it is one of the biggest. But something was wrong. It suffers from the same thing that the whole genre has suffered from. First and foremost, we are watching a bunch of costumed adults pretending that they're children in an expensive suburban Daycare. Second, the genre has otherwise exhausted itself to the point of exciting ritual. Third, the movies in the Dark Knight trilogy are solid and smart entertainment (though not without their flaws).

"The Magic of Belle Isle" (109 minutes) is available via iTunes, Amazon, Comcast, DirecTV, VUDU and other outlets. A limited theatrical release begins July 1.
Rob Reiner's "The Magic of Belle Isle" is an Easy Button of a film, as generic and conventional as its title. If you ever wondered what a Hallmark Channel original movie would be like if you threw some A-list talent at it -- namely Morgan Freeman and Virginia Madsen instead of, say, Jeffrey Nordling and Kristy Swanson -- here's your answer.
Freeman stars as Monte Wildhorn, an alcoholic in a wheelchair and "writer (of westerns) nobody reads." His books, once popular, are now out of print. Monte's nephew (Keenan Thompson) deposits him in the idyllic lakeside town of Belle Isle to housesit. Nephew's ulterior motive, of course, is that he will be inspired to stop drinking and start writing again, but the embittered Monte is a hard case. "Toss it in the garbage," he says of his typewriter. "She's a black-hearted whore, and I'm done with her."
So what will it take to turn this curmudgeon into a softie? Guy Thomas' simplistic script leaves nothing to chance. How about saddling Monte with a lazy old dog named Ringo (yes, Ringo) that has a penchant for licking itself? No? Well then, how about introducing a single mother (Madsen) who is going through a divorce with three -- count 'em -- daughters: one adorable, one precocious, and one sullen? Still not enough? Well then how about adding to the mix a mentally challenged boy who hops around the neighborhood and whom Monte takes under his wing as his "sidekick?"
A young black boy deemed suspicious for wearing a hoodie. A black head of state depicted as a primate. Extremist political parties masking bigotry behind nationalism. Google the word "racism" and you'll find a vast array of news items showing that this most basic form of bigotry is alive and well.
There have been many films big and small which have addressed the subject. But only one comes to mind with racism as an actual character: the controversial drama "White Dog," directed by Samuel Fuller, based on the novel by Romain Gary.
Marie writes: Recently, we enjoyed some nice weather and inspired by the sunshine, I headed out with a borrowed video camera to shoot some of the nature trails up on Burnaby Mountain, not far from where I live. I invariably tell people "I live near Vancouver" as most know where that is - whereas Burnaby needs explaining. As luck would have it though, I found a great shot taken from the top of Burnaby Mountain, where you can not only see where I live now but even Washington State across the Canadian/US border...

There are two good films at Toronto about the same thing: Romance that begins during the last months of life for a person with cancer. I wrote earlier about Gus Van Sant's "Restless," and now here is "50/50" by Jonathan Levine, with a screenplay by Will Reiser that is said to be semi-autobiographical. As a person who has been in love while dealing with cancer, these films inspire introspection, and while I admire them I realize they are to some degree escapism--poised at the "Bargaining" position at the center of Elisabeth Kübler-Ross's five stages of grief.
A horror or science-fiction movie without subtext is like Dr. Frankenstein's laboratory without electricity. The inner metaphor is what gives it life and resonance. Otherwise, it's just a story about stitched-together people parts. Or take David Cronenberg's "The Fly," a riveting, poignant horror/science-fiction/romance about an ambitious scientist who accidentally gets his DNA mixed up with that of a housefly. Everything about the movie is first-rate, from the direction to the performances to the effects. But what really grabs hold of you is the universal theme: We are all Brundlefly, sentient, self-aware beings whose bodies are going to decay and die. In 1986, a lot of people assumed the subtext was AIDS; Cronenberg later said he was thinking in more general terms about the process of aging. It doesn't matter. The movie works on those levels.
Cronenberg is particularly ingenious at making the word flesh, and the ways he develops his ideas are often even scarier than the explicit horrors: "The Brood" is a masterpiece about the psychosomatic effects of rage turned inward, and about the legacy of emotional abuse passed down from one generation to the next; "Videodrome" is about technology as an extension of the body and the brain; "Dead Ringers" is about mutant forms of psychological and sexual intimacy; "Naked Lunch" is about a writer who has to internalize his own sexuality before he can create art.... Cronenberg is an organic, visionary thinker, storyteller, filmmaker. His movies have meat on their bones. Other filmmakers whose work strikes me as insubstantial lack this ability to flesh-out their pictures with compelling, animating ideas. Their plots are meticulously plotted, but they're skin-deep and there's nothing to sink your imaginative teeth into.
Which brings me to this summer's hits, "Transformers: Dark of the Moon" and "Rise of the Planet of the Apes," neither of which I have much interest in seeing. Instead I'm intrigued by a few things I've read about them -- specifically about their subtext, or lack thereof. In a piece about the racial themes of "The Help" ("Why Can't Critics Just Get Along?"), David Poland writes:

When nothing goes right, everything can only go wrong.7 Reviews
Frank and Mikey rush over to Gerard. Gerard's frightened, cowering in the corner. But Frank doesn't know what the hell he's done wrong..
The rain pounds down on the window screen in a steady beat. A never ending beat.. It adds more suspense in the brisk air; the eerie moon radiating white streaks through the oynx, ebony sky. It's stares down at us, smirking at us, mocking us. It's silver glow is getting bigger and bigger every mile we go, always getting closer to Gerard. Which leads me to think; what the fuck happened? What's he done? Is he hurt? Dead? Ill? Gone?
I shiver violently; the clanking sound of my skinny bones is almost audible.
"What d'you think's wrong with him?" Frank asks from beside me. He was going to stay at ours tonight, but after hearing the news about Gerard, he didn't want to. He got flustered and worried, his hands fidgeting. They still are; they're squirming in his lap like a fish out of water.
"I don't know," I say simply, my grip around the steering wheel increasing. "I just hope he's not deceased."
Frank's eyes widen. "You were considering that?!" he asked.
I shrug, trying not to think about my brothers limp, white corpse lying on the floor, eyes glazed over, gooey blood leaking from his mouth and trailing down his chin, leaving huge, scarlet puddles on-
"Mikey?" Frank waves his hand in front of my face and I blink once before returning back to reality. "Did you take you anxiety tablets today?" he asks.
"Yes,." I reply, knuckles turning white from the pressure I'm pressing on the rubber wheel.
Frank sighs, "Well, you just missed Gerard's house."
I blink stupidly, I did?
"Oh," I say.
I swerve the car around easily, seeing as there's no one in the road, and pull into the driveway. The lights are on, blurry rays leaking out of the front window. The cream blinds are closed, muffling the power of the luminous glow. I pull the keys out from the ignition and step out the car, the damp, shining concrete beneath my trainers squelches.
Frank and I lift our jackets above our heads and run to the door, banging on it furiously. It opens immediately, a very disgruntled, weeping Lindsey crying before us.
I walk in, taking my coat off and pulling her into a tight hug. "Hey, it can't be that bad.." I coo, also trying to reassure myself.
She nods frantically, puffy, red eyes looking up at me. Her pale face is tear-stained, makeup run completely.
"He's drunk," she whispers, pointing to the living room.
I feel a flood of emotion overcome me at once: anger, disappointment, sadness, grief, pain.. more anger.
I release my grip of her, apologizing for what I'm about to do. I walk calmly into the living room, spying my very anxious, very drunk brother sitting nervously on the edge of his seat, head buried in his palms.
"Gerard," I say.
His head shoots up and he stares at me with dead, pleading eyes. He's stressed, very stressed, obviously. "Mikey!" he squeaks. "I-I'm s-sorry! I'm sorry!"
I shake my head. "How the fuck could you?! After all the shit we went through last time?! What, are you doing cocaine again too, Gerard?"
He rapidly shakes his head, tears spilling down his face. "I read something," he whispers.
"I swear to god, if you're drunk because you read a stupid fanfict-"
"No, no no no!" he slurs, stumbling to his feet.
I gag - he stinks of alcohol.
"Gerard, how could you?!" Frank enters the room, hands on his hips, glaring.
Gerard's eyes widen and he jumps onto the couch, curling into a ball.
"Gerard?" I say, edging closer.
"Don't let him near me!" he spits, glaring at Frank.
Frank's eyes widen, his face plastered in utter confusion and pain.
"Gerard, I haven't done anything," Frank says softly, approaching Gerard slowly.
Gerard starts shaking madly.
"Look, I'm going to put Lyn-z to bed; she's traumatized, Gerard." I frown at him, watching sorrow and pain take over his expression. "You two sort out whatever you need to. I'll be back down to talk to you soon," I say, leaving the room.
"Gerard," Frank starts, "Whatever I did I'm sorry, I-"
"You're a murderer!" I accuse, glaring at my best friend.
Frank's jaw drops to the floor, eyebrows raised. "No, I'm not," he says calmly, sitting next to me.
I start shaking, especially when Frank puts his hand on my knee. "I read your diary." My voice is cold, lifeless in every shape and form.
"You did what?!" he asks, voice rising about 10 octaves.
"I read-d the entries," I mumble. "How you ra-ped-ped that girl, killed that man, hurt Sweetpea."
Frank's completely flabbergasted, befuddled, hurt. "I have no idea what you're talking about," he says. "This is my only diary." He pulls out a book from his bag, completely similar to the one I read. It's creases, colour, shape, size.. I yank it from my best friends hands, reading the entries thoroughly. I decide to read the entries I read in the other diary:
Entry 10..
Oh God, I just came downstairs to find Sweetpea battered. She's broken a rib, bleeding all over the floor. Her whimpers scalded my ears and I couldn't help but cry. My favorite dog, my Sweetpea, broken and battered.
"No.. no, in entry 10 you hurt Sweetpea," I frown.
"No, I didn't Gerard. I woke up and found her like that," he says, placing his hand on my shoulder sympathetically.
He thinks I'm crazy.
I shake my head, burying my face in the book again.
Entry 18..
Nothing eventful happened today, only a pretty gruesome news report.. Some poor man had been found in an alley way, bruised and stabbed, along with a women. She had several punctures in her ribs and died. She was supposedly a prostitute, so maybe the abusive men did it to her.
Poor girl.. you try to make a living in the only way you can and get killed.
"You.." I look up to Frank, "I.."
"I'm sorry?" Frank says, rolling his eyes in disbelief. "That isn't the reason you got drunk, is it? You thought I was a murderer?"
I nod. "You.. you did such bad things in that diary. Raped, beat, killed.." I visibly gulp, crying into my clammy hands.
Frank however, pulls me into a tight hug, rocking me back and forth.
"So you've sorted things?" Mikey asks, walking back into the room. He's glaring at me, expression hurt.
We both nod.
"Good, I'll go make us some coffee," Mikey says, and he runs out of the room.
There's a small, questionable silence, Frank's grip on me getting tighter and tighter, more and more painful.
"Frank," I moan, breaking from his grasp. His eyes flash, devilish smirk forming on his face.
His eyes aren't him anymore, they're evil, thick, crazed, manic.
"You shouldn't have read my diary, Gerard."
AHHHHH! Longer chapter because I love you. :3
Who thought Gerard was going crazy for a minute there?

By PAUL PAYNE
A federal appeals court has reinstated a lawsuit brought by retired Sonoma County government employees claiming the Board of Supervisors reneged on a pledge to provide lifetime health benefits.
Monday's 2-1 opinion from the U.S. 9th Circuit Court of Appeals means the group representing about 1,500 former county workers can try once again to make its case in district court.
"You can't break your promises just because you don't have the money," said Jeff Lewis, an attorney for the Sonoma County Association of Retired Employees, which filed the lawsuit.
Board of Supervisors Chairman David Rabbitt downplayed the significance of the ruling and said the county remained on strong legal ground. Bruce Goldstein, county counsel, said he was encouraged by parts of the ruling, which suggest the county can't be made to suffer such an immense financial impact without express action of the board.
"Even if the plaintiffs file a second amended complaint, we think a court is unlikely to find a vested right existed," he said in a statement.
The retirees' suit claimed the board violated its long-standing agreement to pay for "all or substantially all" health benefits when it cut them to $500 a month in 2008.
In 2010, U.S. District Judge Claudia Wilken dismissed the suit, saying the county never expressly promised to continue the subsidy in perpetuity.
But the California Supreme Court ruled otherwise in a similar case in Orange County last year. It said local government practices can add up to a binding commitment.
Based on that decision, appeals judges agreed the Sonoma County retirees might be able to provide evidence that the benefits were implied. They agreed to let the group submit an amended complaint to the lower court.
However, the judges warned of a "heavy burden" of proof that must include documents such as resolutions and memos from the board. And one justice said no such agreement ever existed.
The dispute stems from efforts to rein in health care costs that supervisors approved unanimously more than four years ago over heated opposition from current and retired workers.
At the time, then-county Administrator Bob Deis said the county faced annual deficits of $15 million because of rising health care premiums that were predicted to total $407 million over the next 30 years.
Under the changes, which went into effect in June 2010, the county's contribution to retiree health benefits was to decrease 20 percent annually over five years until this year when it reaches a level of $500 a month per retiree, regardless of the number of dependents.
Officials estimate the changes affect about 40 percent of the 2,500 county retirees who are eligible for county medical benefits.
The remainder are unaffected because they are eligible for other coverage, such as Medicare, officials said.
Similar changes were imposed on 650 non-union county employees and unions representing about 3,000 workers. However, those employees received a discretionary cash allowance of $600 a month, which retirees did not get. Retirees argued in the lawsuit that they were owed a similar cash allowance.
Representatives of the retirees association have questioned the county's savings figure. Also, those on fixed incomes say they are struggling to pay for their health care coverage.
Jeez, Dan, and you got this from Faux No News. It's quite obvious when comparing our healthcare costs (supposedly the BEST healthcare but our statistics compared to other industrialized countries on dead babies and life expectancy don't show this)are two and three times what other countries spend.
I feel the for profit healthcare companies and the Republican party are the death panels deciding who can and who cannot have healthcare.
You'll never see this happen with a Private Sector Union because the Company would just file for BK.
But Government Employee Unions know that their employer has an endless source of funds.
Ban Public Employee Unions.
Promises made deserve to be promises kept.
Universal health care would make things so simple.
Fox News says, "Health policy experts say guaranteeing coverage for all Americans may cost about $1.5 trillion over the next decade." That would be only about $150 billion a year to cover everyone. http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2009/03/18/universal-health-care-cost-trillion/
The Heritage Foundation says, "Obamacare will spend $1.7 trillion (over 10 years) on its coverage expansion provisions alone, including a massive expansion of Medicaid and federal subsidies for the new health insurance exchanges." That would be $170 billion a year without covering everyone. http://www.heritage.org/research/reports/2012/10/federal-spending-by-the-numbers-2012
Wikipedia says that federal spending for Medicare and Medicaid is about $800 billion a year. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Expenditures_in_the_United_States_federal_budget
It sure seems that universal health care would make things so simple and save tax dollars.

Tour is most tested event in cycling history; Dekker tests positive for EPO
The International Cycling Union, France's antidoping agency, and officials from the 2009 Tour de France have promised that this year's race will be the most tested event in cycling history.
Five-hundred tests will be administered over the course of the race, and 50 riders have already been targeted for testing. All riders give two blood samples two days before the start of the Tour to be used for future testing. Based on their performance, between eight and 11 riders will be tested daily, and others will be done randomly. Officials are on the lookout for drugs like the blood booster, CERA, and testosterone, as well as blood doping through transfusions and other drugs riders think are undetectable.
They'll also use the UCI's biological passport program - 850 riders have given urine and blood samples over the last year to determine normal biological values profiles. Changes in the profiles mean it's likely a rider has used performance-enhancing drugs or methods.
The UCI has already banned Dutch cyclist Thomas Dekker from this year's Tour de France after a sample taken from him in December 2007 tested positive for EPO. The sample had originally been negative for the banned substance, but was retested using new technology designed for more advanced forms of EPO. Now, instead of helping teammate and two-time Tour runner-up Cadel Evans through the hillier stages of the race, Dekker may be suspended from his team, Silence, and banned from cycling.
Former pro rider finds new role in cycling world
On May 3, 2008, Ryan Barnett was hit by a pickup truck and suffered three broken ribs, a cracked pelvis and smashed vertebrae. Fourteen months later, on July 4, 2009, he'll participate in the wheelchair division of the Atlanta Journal-Constitution Peachtree Road Race in Atlanta, GA. To compete in the 6.2-mile course, athletes must be able to complete the course in less than 45 minutes. The current men's wheelchair record stands at 18 minutes and 38 seconds.
With 12 screws and two titanium rods in his spine, 39-year-old Barnett has had to limit his training to three days a week – a huge change from his normal six or seven days as a professional cyclist. Before his accident, Barnett raced for over twenty years in the United States, Cuba, the Dominican Republic, Gautemala and Brazil. Now, he's paralyzed from the waist down, and credits his wife, Maricela, with suggesting he start racing again.
"I'm ok where I am in the sport," says Barnett. But he does miss the "speed and thrill of 100-plus guys, elbow-to-elbow. It's a totally different world."

The Distribution Of Child Nutritional Status Across Countries And Over Time
AbstractMalnutrition is manifested in various degrees of both underweight and overweight, with large differences and rapid changes in their prevalence and severity. This paper introduces a new approach to characterizing the distribution of a population's nutritional status, to help analyze changes in that distribution over time and across countries. Our method draws on the poverty literature to construct Foster-Greer-Thorbecke measures for the incidence and severity of under- and overweight, based on deviations in either direction from the median of a healthy population. We apply this median-based measure to the nutritional status of over 400,000 preschool children, as measured in 130 DHS surveys covering 53 countries over a period from 1986 to 2006. Unlike conventional threshold-based methods, the new approach counts changes in every child's bodyweight. We find that this offers a more sensitive measure of differences across countries and changes over time, showing in particular that children's bodyweights are closely linked to local agricultural output and gender equality as well as real GDP per capita.

Eats & Drinks
Best Bagels
Mile End, Mile End Sandwich
H&H is dead. We've all grieved its passing, and rightfully so, but it's about time to move to the final stage of mourning—acceptance—and crown a new bagel empire to take its place. More dedicated writers than us have tried and failed to crown an objective champion in this contentious battle, because every individual's bagel needs are intensely personal. That's why we're not even going to wade into the New York bagel battle; for us, Mile End's Montreal-style beauties are where it's at. They're smaller, denser and sweeter than the dough monsters this town has become overrun with—one of these never needs toasting to improve its texture. The salt of lox plays off that honeyed sweetness perfectly, but it's a truly satisfying meal on its own, with just a little cream cheese. Go ahead, start sending your letters.
Best Bar/Restaurant in a Hotel
1170 Broadway, 347-472-5660,
Located in the "it" hotel of the moment, the NoMad Hotel, the aptly named NoMad comes courtesy of Daniel Humm and Will Guidara of Eleven Madison Park fame, so it's fitting that the red-and-black interior, service, and Swiss and French-inspired fare are all flawlessly executed. Unfortunately, all that quality buzz comes at a price, and with appetizers priced at up to $24 and entrees priced at up to $78, it's a high one. Alas, that is the price of dining next to the likes of Katie Holmes and President Obama.
Best Bar for the First Date
325 Bowery, 646-602-7015, peelsnyc.com
First dates are tricky. You don't want to pick an overly trendy or overly foodie spot lest you come off as trying too hard, nor do you want to pick a place that's too affordable or, given the risk that your date could turn out to be a dud, too pricey. Peels is that rare gem that offers a menu of comfort-food classics at moderate prices and an always-hoping scene that's neither too pretentious nor so loud that conversations are impossible. Better yet, Taavo Somer (of Freeman's fame) offers the likes of fried chicken and red quinoa salad in a room set under what is arguably the most complexion-flattering lighting in all of New York City.
Best Bar for Microbrews
Idle Hands Bar
25 Ave. B, downstairs, idlehandsbar.com
It can be hard to convince non-beer-loving friends to accompany you on your latest saison scavenger hunt. That old saw about beer being an acquired taste? Only true of the good stuff. Try to get someone who'll guzzle PBRs all night long to venture into hoppier territory, and watch the night dry up before your eyes. That's why Idle Hands is the perfect bar for cross-cultural drinking. Their taps rotate weekly, showcasing hard-to-find seasonal brews sourced locally and from around the country, and 50 cans and bottles on hand at all times. But they also feature one of the most extensive bourbon lists in the city (80 and counting, including their very own Evan Williams barrel) and play varieties of rock music you don't ever hear without digging deep into the Internet jukebox. The bartenders will offer suggestions without a whiff of judgment; they'll even make a vodka-soda without batting an eye. It's like the U.N. of booze—bringing people together, one drink at a time.
Best Breakfast
The Breslin
16 W. 29th St., thebreslin.com
First, let's be clear. This is breakfast we're talking about, not brunch. There are a thousand nice brunches in this city, and 10 times more that rate at passable or waste of time. But a real breakfast? You know, served before 9 a.m., on weekdays? That's a rare gem. That's why we love The Breslin. It's secretly a hotel restaurant, which means it's open from 7 a.m. for business travelers off to a full day in the office, but it's cheffed by April Bloomfield, the nouveau-Brit champion best known for Village gastropub The Spotted Pig. Breakfast runs the spectrum from a refreshingly light grapefruit with ginger and mint to hearty meals like poached eggs with curried lentils and yogurt or a full English breakfast. Whatever you do, don't skip the baked goods—Bloomfield's pastry chef makes miracles with butter and sugar, turning classic British treats like hot cross buns and cinnamon toast into manna from heaven.
Best Coffee
Stumptown Coffee Roasters
18 W. 29th St., stumptowncoffee.com
Now that the joke of the hipster coffee shop (Fedoras! Tasting notes! Those hilarious brewing contraptions!) has faded into cliché, it's about time we all settled down and realized one very basic fact: All that seemingly excessive care makes some damned good coffee. Case in point: Stumptown. This Portland import is ripe for jokes just by its provenance; add in the baristas' requisite headwear and the carefully rough-hewn dark wood interior, and it's all you can do to stop your eyes from rolling. But have a cup. Their espressos are thick and rich, expertly pulled from their own Hair Bender blend, but the real revelation is the regular joe. French press-brewed from a different bean every day, this cup is sweet and fruity, hearty and aromatic without needing a drop of milk or sugar. You'll find you only need a small cup to get you going in the morning; looks like the last laugh's on those suckers chained to their vat of Starbucks.
Best Coffeehouse
Blue Bottle Coffee
450 W. 15th St., 510-653-3394,
Originally hailing from the Bay Area, this fast expanding mini-coffee empire still stays true to its original mission of delivering high-quality coffee, all of which is less than 48 hours out of the roaster so that it can be enjoyed at its peak flavor. To boot, all of the coffee is made from organic, pesticide-free, shade-grown beans, and the space's streamlined seating area and décor make it the perfect spot to take a breather as you wait for your coffee (which can take a good five minutes to be prepared) and pastries. As an added bonus, the crowd at this coffee shop—heavy on fashion and design types—is always impeccably dressed.
Best Comfort Food
Congee Village
New York has been overrun by down-home faux-Southern just like mama (whose mama, exactly? Not mine) used to make "comfort food" restaurants that are so predictable you could set your watch by their menus. Mac and cheese. Burgers. Fried pickles. So on. While we love a good gut-buster every once in a while, there's nothing particularly comforting about rolling down the street clutching your belly. Comfort, to us, comes in the form of something simple, warm and soothing, the kind of food that gives you the strength to go back out into the world. That's what congee does. The Chinese porridge is simple in the extreme—just rice cooked down with lots of water until it gives up its shape and becomes a silky soup, doctored up with whatever meats you like and served with enough sliced ginger and scallion on top to clear any head. It sticks to your ribs in a way that's not overwhelming—just like millions of mamas used to make.
Best Cupcakes/Sweets
Sant Ambroeus
259 W. Fourth St., 212-604-9254,
An oldie, but a goodie, Sant Ambroeus constantly delivers the most exquisite sweets in New York City. While there are a number of New York City spots to pick up butter-cream-heavy confections of delight, none melds sweet perfection with refined sophistication the way that Sant Ambroeus does. Whether you're going for chocolate mousse cake, a hazelnut sponge finished with hazelnut butter cream, gelati, a selection of cookies or one of their fruit tarts, it's impossible not to be completely at peace knowing that every calorie was well worth it.
Best Diner
207 W. 14th St., coppelianyc.com
New York City's diner tradition is a grand one, from the 20th-century invention of the "quick lunch" restaurant to the wave of Greek immigrants who took over the scene in the '50s and forced an institutional diversity in an era of less-than-tolerant Anglo-Saxon homogeneity. While there are still hundreds flourishing (many with the same Greek owners) across the five boroughs, many are now trying to do it different and better. Unfortunately, fancying up diner classics doesn't make the cut; the only new diner worthy
of the name is the 24/7 Cuban-American Coppelia, where Latino comfort food meets New York classics in mac and chicharrón, burgers with yucca fries and all-night steak and eggs with rice and beans. Oh, and a dulce de leche milkshake. Bonus: Cubans know their coffee—none of that weak diner stuff here.
Best Deli
205 E. Houston St., katzsdelicatessen.com
Sometimes the classics are classics for reasons that are no longer relevant: institutions that have coasted on their reputations for decades, buoyed along by tourists who visit once, are disappointed, but tell all their friends about it anyway. Those friends go when they're in town because they don't know they have options, and so on for years. Katz's is not one of those places. Yes, the lines are atrocious. The When Harry Met Sally sign is kitschy at best, and the celebrity photos on the walls are from a heyday that hasn't heyed in about 20 years. But there's no arguing with the pastrami. Or the chopped liver. Or the pickles (full sour, half sour and green tomatoes, of course). Take a friend, sit at a table-service spot along the sides, order a Dr. Brown's, a reuben and a chopped liver, and forget you're surrounded by Meg Ryan enthusiasts.
Best Destination Wine and Liquor Store
Warehouse Wines & Spirits
735 Broadway, 212-982-7770
For over 30 years, Warehouse Wines & Spirits has been the ultimate liquor store to get the most bang for your buck. The store is stocked to the rafters with a dizzying selection of wine and liquor, with prices as enticing as the selection. They always have several great multi-pack promotions on the shelves. The staff knows their stuff and will always point you in the right direction. Stocking up is the thing to do there. In this economy, Warehouse Wines is the go-to shopping spot.
Best Dive
The Distinguished Wakamba Cocktail Lounge
543 Eighth Ave., 212-244-9045
The word "dive" gets thrown around a lot these days. Too often, people use it to describe a bar that doesn't serve anything fancier than Heineken, is poorly lit or has some ripped upholstery. A real dive bar has an element of danger to spice up the cheap, crummy drinks and dirt—the term, after all, is said to have originated from bars where patrons had to dive under the tables whenever trouble broke out. That's where Wakamba wins. Not only are the beers cheap, there's a good possibility that the next bottle the bartender pulls out of the ice could be broken. Not only is the place dingy, it's decorated with the remnants of the ancient tiki fad, moth-eaten thatch hanging over the bar and red lighting adding that "Satan's grotto" touch. You will get stared down and sized up by everyone in the room when you walk in. But they'll leave you alone if you observe proper dive etiquette: Keep your head down, keep drinking and always be prepared to hit the floor.
Best Dumplings
Lam Zhou HandMade Noodle
144 E. Broadway, 212-566-6933
This subterranean hole-in-the-wall in the deepest recesses of eastern Chinatown seems like it doesn't pull any punches. The name, after all, appears to say it all. And the noodles are great; in varying thicknesses, either pan-fried or in soup. But that's not, in fact, all they do. The minute you walk in the door, the first thing you'll likely see is not the eponymous noodles (those are pulled in the rear kitchen) but a woman seated at one of the Formica tables, filling dumplings and laying them out in ranks on an enormous sheet pan. And the waitress, before you order anything else, will make sure you're ordering dumplings. They come in one variety (pork and chive), and you want them fried, the underside seriously crispy while the top of the wrapper stays supple and the filling stays juicy. It's a standout above all of the single-minded dumpling shops in town.
Best Expanding Restaurant
The Smith
55 Third Ave., 212-420-9800,
There are few spots in Manhattan that can deliver a killer scene minus exorbitant prices, so it's little surprise that East Village favorite The Smith is continuing its expansion. After opening a Midtown sister location less than a year ago, the downtown hot spot has announced that it will be taking over the Upper West Side spot formerly known as Josephina. It will serve breakfast, lunch and dinner and is expected to be as large as its Midtown location. Expect the same mild prices, comfort-food classics and bar snacks (think fish and chips and chicken and waffles). And, no trip to The Smith would be complete without a slice of their Birthday Cake, a yellow cake served with fudge frosting, vanilla ice cream and a candle.
Best Food Trend
Small plates
Tapas-style eating has been getting a lot of flak recently, with New York Times critic Sam Sifton leading the charge against "the myth of small plates meant for sharing." We love Sifty, but this is one point on which we're going to have to disagree. For the chronically indecisive, the miniature of appetite or the purely gluttonous, the wealth of new restaurants who put just as much care and attention into small, three-bite plates as oversized entrees is an answered prayer. Can't decide between the lamb terrine and the prawns? Get both! Want to have both a salad and a pasta but don't want to have to leave most of both on the plate? No problem! Want to try one of everything because each dish looks better than the last? Do it. Finally, a cause both overeaters and undereaters can get behind.
Best French Fries
The Harrison
355 Greenwich St., theharrison.com
When all you want is a serious bowl of fries, The Harrison looks like the absolute wrong place to be. The elegant Tribeca restaurant is candlelit and twinkling, all cozy nooks and white tablecloths. Steered there by a friend, your first thought is likely to be "I'm going to have to order a steak to get these fries, aren't I?" But never fear. The Harrison is run by Jimmy Bradley, of Chelsea's Red Cat, a longtime gallery-goer's favorite for intensely friendly, comfortable fine dining. And those fries are featured all by themselves—"schmaltz fries with malt aioli," to be precise. They're double-fried in duck fat and canola oil; thicker than we usually like, the process makes them as dark and crispy as shoestrings, with an added creamy potato interior. And the side sauce is an unholy marriage of the best in European accompaniments—British malt vinegar and Dutch mayonnaise—that is intensely sweet, tart and complex. Sitting at the bar with these and a beer from their surprisingly extensive list is the absolute right place to be.
Best Frozen Yogurt
16 handles
2600 Broadway, 646-422-7022
16 Handles is the ultimate frozen yogurt shop with a social consciousness, serving the best yogurt with delicious toppings and sauces. It's a great place to hang with friends, family or on your own, and with 16 flavors and over 50 toppings, the options are endless. Plus you can flaunt your yogurt creation and feel good about that huge dish of deliciousness by knowing that every purchase supports their mission of being green and giving back to the community. They also do private parties!
Best Italian Restaurant
Dopo Teatro
345 E. 62nd St., 646-484-6548
With so many Italian eateries in New York City, it can be difficult to find an "authentic" one—offering 100 percent home-cooked food and an ambience that transports diners to Italy, if only for an hour or two. Dopo Teatro East, which opened on East 62nd Street between First and Second avenues at the end of June, does just that. The manager, Albi Mecaj, and chef, the Italian-born Salvatore DiBella, are very attentive to diners and help them to pick the exact kind of meal they are looking for, from the main course to the beverage to the dessert.
Best Line Worth the Wait
Artichoke Basille's Pizza
328 E. 14th St., 212-228-2004, brandonlinker7.wix.com/artichokepizza
No city has people more time-crunched than New York, so if you're going to give a spot that's playing hard to get your time and money, you best be sure it's worth the wait. Artichoke Basille's Pizza is one spot that's sure to never disappoint. Even in a city where pizza places are a dime a dozen, this frill-free joint's mouthwatering pizzas are worth the wait, which can often stretch down the block. Luckily given that celebrities like Sophia Vergara have been known to queue up alongside us plebeians, waiting for that delicious slice of artichoke pizza can be all the more worthwhile.
Best Meal for $10 or Less
123 Lexington Ave., kalustyans.com
The curry hill spice shop has been the stuff of legend for years. Need a pound of Thai bird chilis? They've got it. Looking for black garlic, red quinoa or fresh green turmeric? Easy. While it's easy to get lost in the main-floor cornucopia, carry on upstairs, where behind a deli counter sit buckets of olives and fresh cheese, piles of samosas and six trays of some of the best Middle Eastern food around. There's always mujadarra, an intensely flavored pilaf of caramelized onions, lentils and rice; depending on the day you'll also find buttery eggplant salad, stewed curried chickpeas and more. A platter of three choices plus salad, pita and olives will set you back $7—grab a mango lassi from the fridge behind you for dessert and perch at one of the tin tables by the window, looking down on the neighborhood like its king. You'll be eating like one.
Best Pizza
Patsy's Pizzeria
2287 First Ave., thepatsyspizza.com
People will tell you that the only real New York pizza is found in Brooklyn, in the outer reaches of Staten Island or in Queens. Manhattan, they say, has been overrun by upstart Neapolitan-style restaurants, where toppings like arugula and burrata trump pepperoni and mozzarella; where a small pie feeds one, not six, and costs twice as much. We will contend that this is not necessarily a bad thing, and that there is room in our hearts and our borough for many different pizzas. But when you want a simple slice, big enough to fold in half with a crust supple enough to bend without snapping, there's nothing like Patsy's. It's the coal oven that does it, delivering spots of deliciously bitter char without baking the crust to a crisp, countering the sweet tomato sauce and slightly salty dry mozzarella just right. There are no bad slices of pizza, but this one is better.
Best Place to Become a Wine Expert
Casa Oliveira Wines & Liquors
98 Seventh Avenue South, 212-929-0760
Located in the heart of the West Village, one block south of the Christopher Street/Sheridan Square subway station, Casa Oliveira offers free tastings on Tuesdays from 5 to 8 p.m. The store carries a full selection of wines and liquor. All white wines, champagne and other sparkling wines are available chilled. They open daily at noon (1 p.m. on Sunday), and are open on Friday and Saturday night until 11:30 p.m.
Best Place for Breakfast with the Crew/Best Fried Clams and Calamari
Jeremy's Ale House
228 Front St., 212-964-3537
Jeremy's has the coldest beer and freshest seafood, at prices everyone can afford. Its fried clams and calamari have consistently been voted the best in town. When you're there, you also have to try the seafood stew. The bowl is big enough for two and is only $12.95. Early risers or all-nighters can try their Monday-thru-Friday eye-opener from 8 to 10 a.m. The staff is friendly, and the informal atmosphere and nine flat-screens make it the perfect place to watch your favorite sporting event.
Best Place for Late Night Snacks
25 W. 32nd St., hmart.com
So you've been lured into another K-Town Tuesday night of boozing, karaoke and self-esteem destruction. You've finally found your way out of the bar, skipping one last round of "Total Eclipse of the Heart," and are tottering unsteadily toward the Herald Square subway station when you realize you're going to need some starch in your system now to avoid another hungover commute in the morning. That's where H-Mart comes in. Going to a restaurant is too daunting a task; besides, most of your friends are still at the bar communing with their inner Bonnie Tylers. At this, the only Manhattan location of this Korean supermarket chain, let your inner 8-year-old revel in the wide variety of insanely flavored snacks and sodas, plus a small but well-done selection of prepared foods like kimbap, sticky rice cakes and japchae, stir-fried clear noodles. Take your tako chips (yes, that's octopus flavor) on the subway and start soaking up the soju. Just don't fall asleep and miss your stop again.
Best Pub Food
Peter McManus Café
152 Seventh Ave., 212-929-9691
This Classic New York Institution has been slinging food and drinks the same way since 1936. Great cheeseburgers and corned beef sandwiches highlight the menu, all with the same smiling service. Open till 4 a.m., it's a great place for lunch, last call and any situation in between. A must visit in Chelsea.
Best Whole Pie
Lombardi's Pizza
32 Spring St., 212-941-7994
In 1905, Lombardi's became America's first pizzeria, and to this day it is regarded as not just culturally significant but one of the best pizzerias in the country. Their traditional pie is a mouthwatering blend of fresh mozzarella and a special San Marzano tomato sauce topped with romano and basil, spiced to perfection. You can't buy a slice here, but that's OK, because when you taste it, you will want to eat the whole thing!
Best Wine Store on the Upper West Side
Martin Brothers
2781 Broadway, 212-222-8218
In 1985, brothers Orlirio and Roberto Martin converted Las Antillas Market to Martin Brothers Wines and Spirits. After 26 years, Martin Brothers still resides on the corner of Broadway and 107th Street, managed now by second-generation Martins, daughters Carrie and Elizabeth. They offer outstanding customer service and a selection that has not been matched on the UWS, plus loyalty to their neighborhood and all who shop there.
Best UES Wine Shop
Vinyl Wine Shop
1491 Lexington Ave., 646-370-4100
Vinyl Wine features an extensive selection of off-the-beaten-path wines and craft spirits that you won't find at most other shops. They're known for a laid-back atmosphere where wine geeks and newbies feel equally welcome. So stop by, taste some wine, and listen to whatever they're spinning on our old turntable that day. Free deliveries go out daily to most areas of the Upper East Side and East Harlem.

Almancil, Algarve, is best known for its proximity to the glorious Algarve beaches of Vale do Lobo and Quinta do Lago, and the village's softly coloured pottery. A trinket from an Almancil holiday could become a good investment. Almancil provides all the services which the beach resorts of the Algarve cannot provide themselves, and therefore has everything needed to fully relax and enjoy an Almancil holiday.
When you first arrive in your Almancil holiday accommodation, a walk to the charming little Church of Sao Lourenco to see the glazed interior is well worth the walk. The Sao Lourenco Centre is host to regular exhibitions and classic music events.
Being an important commercial centre in the Algarve, Almancil has attracted some very fine restaurants serving exquisite cuisine from around the globe, but most notably using fresh local produce and recipes.
As it is within 5km of the coastline, holiday rentals in Almancil are often taken as a quiet alternative to taking a beach property in one of the Algarve's more lively resorts.
Almancil has a famous karting track, Almancil Karting, which opened in 1992. It is a large, open air track and leisure complex inaugurated by Ayrton Senna.
One of the huge attractions of taking an Almancil villa is the proximity to the extraordinary beaches of Vale do Lobo and Quinta do Lago, which are regularly touted as the best of the Algarve, Portugal. Vale do Lobo is a versatile resort boasting not only the aforementioned beaches but exquisite spa facilities, luxury holiday villas, two beautiful PGA golf courses, and a huge range of world class sporting facilities.
Quinta do Lago is a golf orientated luxury holiday resort, with four championship golf courses and a magnificent beach, ideal for sun worshipers, golfers and walkers, with excellent access to the beautiful Ria Formusa Nature reserve.
With average temperatures year round of 17˚C, Almancil accommodation is a great option for winter sun or a summer holiday. Winters rarely dip below 10˚C, so the golf courses which surround Almancil are open and playable all year round. Summers are scorching, so the beaches of the Algarve coastline provide a huge magnet from May until late September.
Just 13km from Faro International Airport (FAO), holiday accommodation in Almancil could not be easier to reach. Faro receives a massive number of direct flights from across the UK every day, especially during the summer, and with so many 'no frills' airlines fighting for supremacy, there is no shortage of cheap flights to Almancil to be found.

News: Bow Wow & Taraji P. Henson On "Hurricane Season" Leak, "I'm So Mad How They Did Us"
Wednesday, Dec 16, 2009 10:15AM
Rapper Bow Wow and actress Taraji P. Henson have shared mixed reactions to seeing their delayed Hurricane Season film, which co-stars Lil Wayne, leak online earlier this week.
Writing via Twitter page throughout the week, Henson displayed her followers' reactions to the movie.
"RT@ebmj21 Just finish watching hurricane season with @bowwow614 n @therealtaraji!! Great Movie!!," she wrote via Twitter this week. "RT@shukiris @man whats up with those studios? Talk 2 me n hurricane season are must see films. Luvd u n both of em.<<
Taraji P. Henson's Twitter)
However, Bow Wow was shocked to learn that the movie leaked online.
"@TherealTaraji im so mad how they did us in hurricane.," he wrote Tuesday (December 15) night. "not letting us know what they was gone do. and then next thing its all over the net." (Bow Wow's Twitter)
The film leaked across the Internet last weekend.
Earlier today (December 13), the movie which Lil Wayne, Bow Wow and Forest Whitaker all star in - Hurricane Season leaked to the internet. Unfortunately the movie is going to straight to DVD and will not be in the theaters, but MWP has captured just Weezy's and Bow Weezy's parts in the film so you can all watch. (Lil Wayne HQ)
While an exact release date was never announced, the film was speculated to come out in 2010.
The Weinstein Company initially developed and was set to distribute Hurricane Season starring Bow Wow and Lil Wayne to give the studio a formidable 1-2-punch in the urban film genre. Unfortunately, as we previously reported, The Weinsteins ran into financial difficulty and were forced to shelve a majority of their 2009 slate because they wouldn't be able to afford the distribution and marketing costs. And what about Bow Wow and Lil Wayne's fate in Hurricane Season? Because of the storyline which is more drama and the legit star power which includes Academy Award Winner Forest Whitaker, The Weinstein Company has decided to hold on to the picture and still hopes to release it in theaters. At this time no date is set though. (Wooha News)
