Raiders sign CB Lito Sheppard
Josh Dubow - AP Sports Writer reported today ... "The Oakland Raiders have signed cornerback Lito Sheppard ... Sheppard took part in practice [today] after signing the deal with the Raiders. Sheppard spent time in training camp with the Raiders and played in the final exhibition game before being cut. He had not caught on with any other team and was brought back by the Raiders, who have two cornerbacks banged up in Chris Johnson and Chimdi Chekwa." Sheppard is a former Pro Bowler but started only two games for Minnesota last season. He started nine games for the New York Jets in 2009 and three for Philadelphia the previous season. He had been a starter for the Eagles before that, intercepting 14 passes from 2004 to 2006. Read more: http://www.sacbee.com/2011/10/31/4020061/raiders-sign-cb-lito-sheppard.html#ixzz1cOZVcnwe

Title:A look inside the last male bastion: The barbershop
Author:Macollvie Jean-François
Publication:Haitian Times
Original Language:English
Blurb:The barbershop is the place where men can bond without interference, where the discussion revolves around women and politics. Haitian barbershops are no different from the African-American one portrayed in Barbershop, a new film depicting the business as an African-American institution.
Body:On a Monday afternoon in Flatbush, Nicolas Jean-Jacques walked into Titis Barbershop on Nostrand Avenue and declared that he would never come back to the shop if Ernst Titi Daphnis, 53, who had been on the phone for some time, did not start cutting his hair soon.
Ive been walking after you this whole week, Jean-Jacques said, feigning irritation. If youre not going to do it for me, tell me. I have places much closer to me.
Daphnis merely pointed to his shoe and flicked his finger at his client of more than a decade, indicating that he would not hesitate to kick him out of the small space. The barber-client relationship is one of many reasons that the business of barbering is so rampant in the community. One cannot go one block without passing a barbershop, be it Haitian, Trinidadian or another nationality. Guys looking for a great cut or for camaraderie will go to extreme lengths to get it from their regular groomer. In turn, the barber tries to keep patrons coming back with music, talk of politics and women, and of course, a great cut.
Still frustrated, Jean-Jacques, a 45-year-old security guard, went to wait outside with a few other guys talking shop. Having traveled from Coney Island Avenue to Nostrand Avenue early in the morning, he stood out there just to have Daphnis do his hair. When a mobile vendor passed by with a carriage full of goods, including a $10 do-it-yourself haircutting kit, Jean-Jacques bought one, vowing to not return after that day.
But Daphnis, a well-mannered man who has been cutting hair since it cost five dollars, doesnt sweat it. He said of Jean-Jacques, hes not just a client. Hes a client-friend. We could go outside right now to fight, then wed come back in here and Id do his hair.
Haitians are attached to their tailors, churches and barbers, he said while taking off the first layer of growth from Jean-Jacques head. The important aspect is the way that you treat the people.
The barbershop is the place where men can bond without interference. It is the mens locker room, where the discussion revolves around women and politics. Where else can man go to catch up on the latest gossip, find a good used car, or fulfill most other needs? In the new film Barbershop, Eddie, the veteran barber, is played by Cedric the Entertainer. The movie shows that the barbershop is a cornerstone of Black American society.
Haitian barbershops are no different from the African-American one portrayed in this film directed by Tim Story, a renowned rap video director. Any corner where a black man can find a chair, a pair of scissors and another communicative soul is just heaven, some say. That place is more than a substitute for the expensive therapist or bar.
The barbershop is a hangout, Eric Louis, 29, said. In the sense that if youre sitting at home and youre bored, you can just come here to pass the time.
The film has sparked criticism from community leaders, who accuse the filmmaker of disrespecting the role of Rosa Parks in the civil rights movement. On the silver screen, opposing opinions ricochet in barbershops. Patrons who have seen Barbershop say they like the movie, and that it says all about Haitian barbershops. Well, except for the part about giving up $10,000.
On a Friday night in the Original Barbershop on Clarendon Road, off of Flatbush Avenue, men in their 20s and 30s are home. The rum is flowing as they prepare for the upcoming Carimi-Zenglen fete that night and Djakout Mizik bash the following night. While a few stand in front of the shop, inside the gestures and challenging voices of about 20 make the evening seem hot, even though the constant rainfall made the night chilly.
The number of conversations going on is hard to make out. Witty repartees are the norm; no one gets too offended from the jokes, judgments and insults, they say, because teach knows they are just playing around.
Ralph Durandis said, Each makes jokes about the others.
We are typical of everything Haitian, added Louis, an original patron for six years.
Every hour inside the shop has its own feel and a different crowd. When the shops first open in the morning, retired men in their golden years make up the crowd.
In front of Benoits Barbershop on Park Place near Seventh Avenue in Park Slope, they put the chairs outside on nice mornings.
On Sunday afternoon, a couple blocks down Flatbush near Vanderveer Place, the DHaiti Barbershop crew is cooling down with a soccer game broadcast in Spanish. This crowd is of mixed generations; here you can find intellectuals in their 30s, aspiring rappers in their mid-20s, and shoe repairman over 40.
Junior Roger said one reason they congregate there is because, We all live in the area.
Since the shop is easy to get to, he said its a great place to come spend a couple hours in a place he is used to instead of somewhere new. Javlot Destin said men come to the barbershop to communicate and share ideas, but for Alexandre Luckner, 24, the benefits of the barbershop go beyond merely seeing his friends and catching up.
I sit here to draw, said Luckner, an aspiring fashion designer. By talking to them, I get ideas.
Those who lived in Haiti said the tradition of a cut, talk and drink is one they were used to before they immigrated to the United States. They are simply continuing the tradition in their new locale.
Louis, for example, remembers his father bringing him to the shop in Haiti as a little boy, though it was not very interesting for him then.
Daphnis said starting a barbershop is one of the ways that Haitians who come here have to survive without relying on an employer.
If he can build a clientele, he can live, Daphnis said, snipping away skillfully at Jean-Jacques with a very thin stainless steel scissors.
Keeping an active client base is a complicated affair, however, because there is nothing set in stone about loyalty and customer satisfaction. The business structure is very informal, as demonstrated by the nomadic patterns of some clients. While many hang out in the shops, most of the time they do not come for a haircut.
Philippe François, 27, said, Sometimes on my way from work, I stop by here [Original] before I go home just to get the news.
Its a rainy, chilly Wednesday afternoon on Franklin Avenue and Carroll Street in Crown Heights. Inside Charles Barbershop, a shop that fits two dozen comfortably, with chairs for five barbers, a certain warmth seeps from the three men who alternate between silently watching a Spanish novella, (soap opera), and making brief comments.
The one eating hurriedly is owner Charles Sauveur, an energetic 70-year-old who looks a lot younger; perhaps its his hair, dyed black and styled in a short fro.
I alone was the first barber in New York in 61, he said. I was the only one here as a Haitian.
Forty-four years after leaving the country, Saveur and a few others who came over during the early days pass the time in his barbershop, which he says is in decline financially. He said some of his clients have moved away, died or otherwise decided not to patronize him.
I can count on one hand, how many heads I cut [daily], he said, counting off his fingers.
Economics is one of the hardest subjects for a barber to talk about. They may give the number of heads they cut per day, but to discuss revenue on a monthly basis is taboo. Theyll say there is always a client, or tell you which season is the best for them, but they refuse to put a definitive number. A haircut starts at ten dollars, but goes up according to the style that the client wants.
When Daphnis finished Jean-Jacquess basic cut, with the sides lined up crisp, he joked that Jean-Jacques was giving him so many bills to impress the folks in the shop. With another man hurriedly sliding into the chair as Jean-Jacques got out, the two friends hardly had time to say good bye. But it wasnt necessarytheyd see each other again.
Barbers are not something people change often, Daphnis said.

Jane Pang has given her time, money and abounding energy to the fight against breast cancer. She's also shared the most personal and precious gift of all — a piece of herself.
Earlier this year, Pang flew from Orange County, Calif., to Indianapolis so researchers could extract and freeze a sample of her healthy breast tissue for the Susan G. Komen Tissue Bank at Indiana University. The bank, supported by roughly $1 million a year in Komen funds, provides researchers from around the world with samples of normal tissue that can be compared with cancerous tissue to better understand and treat the disease.
"The older we get, the greater your risk," Pang said. "At 70, I haven't gotten it. Are we who are elderly, without breast cancer, do we hold the cure'"
Pang, of Huntington Beach, Calif., was joined by Garden Grove, Calif., resident Charlene Kazner and Angela Acevedo-Malouf of Mission Viejo, Calif. The women underwent biopsies to help increase the bank's ethnic diversity. The bank is seeking to include more samples from Asians and Latinas, and from women over 70 who have never had breast cancer.
Since the tissue bank started in 2007, most (nearly 80 percent) of the 3,000-plus samples have come from white donors. But researchers need to study women of all backgrounds and stages of life — they need samples from a variety of ethnicities, ages and hormonal states, such as those brought on by pregnancy, breastfeeding and menopause.
Dr. Anna Maria Storniolo, director of the Komen Tissue Bank, said researchers can request extremely specific tissue samples based, for instance, on a donor's age, her number of children or her history of tobacco use. Donor identities are kept confidential.
She said researchers have published seven studies with data derived from the tissue bank, including one by Thea Tlsty, a University of California-San Francisco pathologist. Tlsty used tissue to study the cause of dense breasts, which are associated with a higher risk of breast cancer. The findings were published in the journal Cancer Discovery.
"Without access to that tissue, we couldn't have asked this question, we couldn't have found these results," Tlsty said. "You can't get this from mice tissue. That's why this bank is an incredible resource."
Cancer Caretaker
Jane Pang, a retired nurse, has cared for her husband, Victor, through three bouts of cancer, most recently of the breast. Breast cancer is about 100 times less common in men than women, according to the American Cancer Society.
Jane Pang, who is of Chinese and Japanese descent, grew up in Hawaii; her husband is native Hawaiian.
Victor Pang, 75, first underwent chemotherapy and radiation in 1983 for an eye tumor stemming from non-Hodgkin lymphoma. Twenty years later, surgeons removed a golf-ball-sized brain tumor and he went through chemo again. In 2009, a small mass was detected during a routine chest X-ray. His left breast was removed and he again underwent chemo.
Long before, the Pangs were active in promoting breast health among Pacific Islanders after close friends developed breast cancer. But still, they were shocked by the diagnosis.
"We were rather overwhelmed despite the fact he's had all this background information," Jane Pang said. "I discovered [men] go through the same trauma and the same emotional adjustment to the surgery itself."
For Pang, donating her tissue was never in question. The tissue bank hopes to eventually collect from men, Storniolo said.
"Going to Indiana, I really understood the plight they have," Pang said. "They are predominantly white. I said, 'We've got to make a difference in Orange County. We've got the diversity. Let's step up.'"
Greater Understanding
Angela Acevedo-Malouf, 54, works as a nurse at St. Joseph Hospital's cancer center in Orange, Calif. But it wasn't until her mother was diagnosed with breast cancer nearly three years ago that she gained better insight into what her patients experience.
Acevedo-Malouf's mother, 71, is doing well after undergoing a double mastectomy.
"I was there with my mom for the biopsy, the diagnosis, the chemo and the surgeries," she said. "When I work with my patients, this has helped me to view ahead what they might need."

How to Use Cosmetic Bags:
- Study the compartments of your cosmetic bag before placing your makeup into it. Simple cosmetic bags might consist of just a zippered pouch, but many cosmetic bags have sections for storing jewelry, slots of eyebrow pencils and brushes and a main compartment for your toiletries. Some bags have individual compartments for each liquid item
- Place your smallest items in first, using any compartments designated for their storage. Eyeliners, lipliners and small brushes should be placed into their appropriate slots or placed flat on the bottom of the bag
- Be careful when adding in liquid or powder cosmetics to avoid spilling. Make sure each cap is on tightly. Put these items in separate compartments or place them in sealed plastic bags to avoid getting the cosmetics all over the bag should an item break
- Add in any delicate items, such as perfume or jewelry. Use jewelry compartments or wrap the pieces in soft, fabric pouches. Place these items at the top of your cosmetic bag, and then pad around them with cotton balls or fabric
- Use cosmetic bags for toys, hair accessories, spools of thread, loose buttons, coins and other small items after you've retired them from storing your makeup
How to Recycle Cosmetic Bags:
You may have one or several unused cosmetic bags in your home and are wondering what to do with them. Perhaps you have even considered throwing it into the trash, thinking you will never use it again. But think again; you can use that cosmetic bag for many other things than just the storage of makeup
- Use a hot glue gun and decorative gems, beads and ribbon to decorate your cosmetics bag. Glue your embellishments in a design of your choosing to turn your bag into a cute clutch purse
- Stock an old or unused cosmetic bag with first-aid supplies, such as adhesive bandages, gauze and scissors. Place it in your car to use as a travel first-aid kit
- Fill your bag with toiletries in travel-sized bottles. Keep the bag in your suitcase so that you will always have it ready when you travel
- Recycle your old bag by using it as a personal, travel snack tote for your child. Store snacks in it that can be opened easily while in the car
- Donate your old cosmetic bag to a shelter or a second-hand store that will sell it for you. Even though you may not want that bag anymore, someone else might

A:Absolutely – if our standard sizes don't work for you, we can make you a custom-sized dress for free,When you ordering, you'll need to check the tab for "Custom size",then fill in your size. Getting professionally measured is best, but if you want to do it yourself be sure to read our measuring guide first. Avoid common mistakes by doing the following:
1.Ask someone else to measure for you
2.Take measurements while wearing undergarments similar to what you'll wear with the dress
3.Provide a bust measurement from the fullest part of your chest, not your bra size!
Q:Can I order this dress in a different style/fabric/length?
A: Of course you can. You can click" Custom Size" and then leave your request in "Item Remarks". We will make your dress by your request.
PS: Some dresses do not have "Item Remarks" Tag.

Ensuring your order number is included.
Q: What should I do if the size doesn't fit me perfectly?
A:If your size fluctuates or you want to modify the dress slightly, we always leave a few inches in the seams so that your local tailor can easily make alterations as needed. Dresses generally have a margin of 1 inches on either side of a seam. Flower detailing, beading or belts/ribbons may limit ability to let a dress out.
Q:How do I upgrade my shipping?
A: Simply respond to your confirmation email with the method you would like to change it to.

If you watched the Golden Globes last night, you know that the very best thing about them was Ricky Gervais.
Ricky, can I please bear your children? I mean, WOW—usually I tune out after the red carpet stuff, but for probably the first time in years I watched, and enjoyed, the entire show. (If you missed it, watch the lulz-inducing opening monologue, complete with Scientology, Hugh Hefner and SATC jokes, here). What was not to love?
Oh yeah—the hair and makeup. As usual, more misses than hits… and it's not because I don't WANT to give praise where praise is due.
But honestly? Only four stars rocked my world. Just four! How very disappointing. But I'm tossing out a few crumbs to some other celebs—let's just hope they take notes and improve their game for the Oscars.
MOST GLAMOROUS: January Jones
Because finally—finally!—January realizes that she looks the best on the red carpet when she doesn't fight the Betty Draper. Whenever she tries to go edgy, like at the Emmys last year, it doesn't quite work as well, does it? (Although last year's Globes hairband thing arguably went too much in the other direction.) Glam is just so much more her thing.
And that's exactly what she did here. The hair and makeup was most definitely on the conservative, Old Hollywood side: a deep side-part, retro waves, matte skin, strong brows, red lips. And then the genius of it was to play it against a SOOPER SEKSI dress. Somehow, it tones down the boobage. (And is an alternative way of working a revealing dress, because another strategy, a la the Victoria's Secret models, would be to pair it with an almost bare face and undone hair. Not suitable for the Globes, obviously. Anyway, the big thing to remember is not to do sexy dress plus sexy hair and makeup. It's all about the contrast.)
Oh, and I realize she has lipstick on her teeth in the second photo. I will let it slide. I'll also let it slide that I wish to see her skin slightly more dewy. Oh well.
SEXIEST HAIR: Anne Hathaway
Not loving Hathaway's shoulder pads—what was UP with all of the Dynasty dresses last night?—but I am loving The Hair.
My goodness The Hair. It was out-of-this-world bouncy, healthy, shiny, voluminous… everything one wants one's hair to do. (And as a person cursed with fine, straight, limp locks that cannot hold a curl to save their life, I am très jalouse.) Smart move, too, to pair this style with that dress, because an updo would've made her look about 100 years old.
THE HAIR AND MAKEUP I MOST WANT TO COPY: Dianna Agron
God help me if I ever have to walk a red carpet—how nerve-wracking would THAT be?—but if I did, I'd want to emulate Dianna Agron.
I KNOW. Not trendy in the slightest and maybe her hair is even a little bit Prom. But I don't care. I think she looks adorable. You see, I have a thing for that half-up, half-down sort of hair (case in point: this event). And I love that she didn't overdo it on the makeup (when I get into the GG beauty fails, you'll see what I mean). The fuchsia lip, with blush and a bit of eyeliner, is enough.
FRESHEST FACE: Amy Adams
Doesn't Amy Adams look ridiculously radiant and healthy—and happy? Again: nothing trendy at all about this look, but sometimes it's better to be low-key than to try something out of the ordinary and fail. (Let's get back to that point when we discuss Sandra Bullock in a few.)
You know how I can't seem to find anything amiss with Kate Bosworth's makeup, like, ever? Well, Amy here is giving her a run for her money. This application is perfection: no harsh lines, the blush looks like it is coming from within, a gorgeous colour on the lips and supremely awesome shimmer plus liner on the lids. Also, the hair is my kind of updo: loose and effortless instead of Carrie Underwood-styles. (And if you saw her updo last night, you know that we have MUCH to discuss about that indeed.)
And now for the celebs who get a solid B grade…
First of all, the French twist crew. Now that was weird, because I didn't know that French twists were particularly in fashion. I am going to try to ignore.
BEST EYELASHES: Mila Kunis
And by "best," I mean "least fake-looking" (even though we know these puppies ain't real). It's a rather masterful eye makeup application, don't you think? Sort of smoky and yet not smoky. That tawny colour really works for Mila.
Her skin also looks pretty amazing… but is it $7,000 amazing? Because that's how much her pre-Globes gemstone facial cost. (From Scott-Vincent Borba, who is now, apparently, an esthetician, even though when I interviewed him years ago he called himself a celebrity makeup artist and founder of the brands Borba and e.l.f. Hmm…)
BEST BROWS: Emma Stone
I say brows because I really can't find anything else to praise about this look. It's not bad, but it's sort of boring. I think Emma's gone a shade too far with the spray tan, a centimetre too long with the fake lashes… and you know how I feel about the aforementioned French twist.
Plus, we all know by now that she's a natural blonde… but is anyone still missing the red? I thought so.
BEST LIP (AGAIN): Natalie Portman
Okay, Natalie: you know we all love that fuchsia lip on you. Truth. So it was a good call to wear it again. (Although you STILL haven't listened to our advice about combing out your mascara clumps.)
But the hair? NO. While I don't mind, I suppose, how Mila's version has volume all around the front, yours is a #fail with the bouffant thing at the back. Is that a Bumpit?
Plus: bad call with that horrific red rose thing on your dress. Pregnancy brain is not an excuse.
BEST USE OF PEACH: Michelle Williams
I really did not like Michelle's daisy-adorned dress (!!), but from the neck up, I really cannot fault the girl. To be perfectly honest, the über-platinum cropped hair look is really not my thing (see: Tabatha's Salon Takeover), but not too many people can look this good with a hairstyle that's so harsh.
Therefore many props to her makeup artist. Totally seamless usage of peach: on the lips, on the cheeks, on the lids, and without a single matchy-matchy infraction.
BEST BANGS: Olivia Wilde
Arguably, Olivia Wilde had no business being at the GGs. (As Lainey says, Olivia Wilde needs to stop trying to make Olivia Wilde happen.)
But from a purely beauty point of view, I've got to say that I think these bangs are an improvement. Along with the softer makeup, they toned down the Miss Universe pageant look she had going on at last year's Globes.
BEST FACIAL DEFROSTING (SORT OF): Nicole Kidman
Well, sort of. Nicole is still semi-frozen, but this is the most mobile I've seen her looking in a while. I mean, doesn't her top lip look almost normal? And I think I detect a baby wrinkle between her eyebrows. Maybe.
Anyway, I have no issues with this hair or makeup. (That thing on her dress? Yes.)
BEST PONYTAIL: Piper Perabo
Aw, Piper—so nice to see you again, since I haven't spotted your work in anything since Coyote Ugly. And you're still cute as a button, what with this ponytail and red lips combo on the red carpet. Adorbs!
The only thing is your skin—and I hate to snark on skin, but you really need to take some cod liver oil. It will help. Trust!
So tell me…
What was YOUR favourite Globes beauty look?
Didn't it feel sort of… wrong… to be staring at January's chest? Wow.
Do you, too, take issue with all the French twist action? Or is it just me?

The 3rd Court of Criminal Appeals overturned Tom DeLay's money laundering conviction on Thursday.
Tom DeLay says he thanks god for his acquittal on money laundering charges. But the Travis County District Attorney's Office says not so fast--they're appealing.
This morning a Texas Appeals Court overturned his money laundering conviction saying there was insufficient evidence for a jury to have found him guilty in 2010. He was accused of illegally funneling money to Republican candidates.
The Travis County District Attorney's Office says they're very disappointed in Thursday's ruling, but that they will appeal this ruling to a higher court.
"Well we worked pretty hard on this case, a lot of time was spent on it. This was a politically diverse jury who heard the case. And the Judge made sure that politics didn't come into the courtroom. So we're disappointed and we're going to keep after it until the court of criminal appeals tells us about this decision," Travis County District Attorney Rosemary Lehmberg said.
Tom DeLay was sentenced to three years in prison after being found guilty, but his sentence has been on hold during the appeals process.
DeLay's attorney, Brian Wice says he's confident DeLay would win again if prosecutors pursue an appeal.

Broccoli sprouts belong to the Brassica family of vegetables that includes the cruciferous vegetables, such as broccoli, Brussels sprouts, cauliflower, cabbage and kale. They contain phytochemicals called isothiocyanates, like sulphorophanes, which may induce enzymes that reduce inflammation.
They're also rich in fiber, vitamins and minerals, while being low in calories.
Sulphorophanes are more concentrated in young plants, so broccoli sprouts contain larger amounts compared to mature broccoli plants; about 20 percent to 50 percent more sulphorophanes per ounce. You can add broccoli sprouts to your diet by sprinkling a handful of sprouts on top of a salad or stuff them into a wrap or sandwich. They have a slightly peppery flavor, similar to radishes.
You can also buy glucosinolate supplements (glucosinolate is a type of sulphorphane), but getting them from your diet is much better. The cruciferous vegetables contain many other nutrients and phytochemicals, and it isn't completely clear how well the glucosinolates work in isolation.

The owner of a Greenville jewelry store fired at two men who held up the store Wednesday morning, according to deputies.
The robbery happened at 11:22 a.m. at Paradise Jewelers at 1616 Woodruff Rd.
Greenville County Master Deputy Laura Campbell said two men, wearing hooded sweatshirts and something over their faces, walked in to the store, ordered everyone to the ground and then smashed the display cases. They said the men, one of whom was armed with a gun, then swiped the merchandise and fled the store in a gray vehicle.
Campbell said the owner of the store then chased after the vehicle and fired several shots at the car. On Thursday, Campbell said the owner would not face charges after shooting at the men.
Mauldin police said they also believe the robbers hit a car parked at Proformance Group Inc. as they fled away from the robbery.
The owner told FOX Carolina that the store was back open on Thursday.
Anyone with information about the hold up is asked to call Crime Stoppers at 23-CRIME (864-232-7463).

text: The haters in Yukon land are relentless. The article posted includes a rather large paragraph on B.C. and how moving to the A.C.C. has resulted in a steady decline of the football program including recruiting. There is NO MENTION OF SPAZ and the damage that resulted from his tenure as head coach. It reads as though the MOVE TO THE A.C.C was the root cause of the decline.It goes onto slam what they describe as mediocre Syracuse and Pitt teams heading to the A.C.C. as well. The article and fan comments are transparent and you can feel the resentment. They really do feel they are a better football program, Oh, and how B.C. has only produced five N.F.L. draft picks since 2009. Read for laughs.

David Fincher certainly hasn't had time to bask in the critical glow of his Oscar contender "The Social Network." "I mean we finished the movie probably 3, 4 weeks before the New York Film Festival, and I got on a plane and went to Stockholm, and then I got on a plane [and] came back for the opening, and then went to work. So I kind of haven't really had a chance to assess, cause I've really been (laughs) on to other things," he told Collider in an extensive interview. Currently elbows deep in "The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo," which according to Stellan Skarsgård will be shooting through May, the ever-busy director still has his eye on future projects, including the previously announced "20,000 Leagues Under the Sea." And for Fincher, who continually pushes the technical envelope with each film, he's set to make his first foray in the industry's hottest trend.
"Yeah. 20,000 Leagues will be 3D," Fincher coolly revealed, indicating that he thinks the format is "cool…when it's done right." And as much as we grouse about 3D, poor conversion and having to sit in the dark wearing those clunky glasses, the prospect of someone as forward thinking as Fincher putting his skill set to 3D is definitely exciting.
The project is set up at Disney and promises to be a change of pace for the director, and his first bona fide tentpole picture. The film has a screenplay written by very hot scribe Scott Z. Burns ("The Bourne Ultimatum," "The Informant," "Contagion") but the picture is far from solidified as Fincher's next outing with the director saying, "I think that there's a lot of movies that could be my next film."
Fincher confirms that long-gestating projects like "Rendezvous with Rama," "Heavy Metal," "The Killer" and "The Reincarnation of Peter Proud" (of which he says "I'd love to make that movie. It's fucking great. Great script.") are all still very much on his slate, and being written/rewritten for his sensibilities. However, Fincher notes one project is dead, the culinary sex comedy, "Chef," that was once going to star Keanu Reeves. This means two recent Fincher projects have been killed as he recently confirmed in a 'Social Network' Q&A that "Ness" (once attached with Matt Damon, Casey Affleck and Rachel McAdams) had also been killed.
And of course, should 'Dragon Tattoo' be the hit that everyone expects it should be, there is also the possibility of the sequel, "The Girl Who Played with Fire." But as Fincher notes, even that isn't necessarily a sure thing at this point, plus it doesn't sound like Steve Zaillian has begun penning it yet.
"I believe that there's a script that has to be written for the second movie. We have to have an audience that wants to see a second movie. We have to make room for another Bond movie. So there's a lot of elements that come into play," he says. As you might remember Steve Zaillian was approached by Sony to pen the screenplay even before shooting began on 'Dragon Tattoo.' And of course, with MGM now on the other side of bankruptcy and beginning to get back up and running, "Bond 23" is a huge priority, and when 'Played with Fire' can shoot will depend on lead Daniel Craig's availability and where 007 fits into his schedule.
Anyway, there is a lot to be excited about on the horizon from David Fincher and he's definitely one of the most interesting directors out there. The interview is worth a read with Fincher touching upon a number of topics including the 2003 "pre-iPhone" setting for 'Dragon Tattoo,' a fascinating explanation on his multiple take approach and why Sony bleeped out portions of his commentary track for the upcoming "The Social Network" DVD/BluRay release.

Chef is not Seared. Two different projects. Seared was with Pitt in the early aughts, Chef was with Keanu in 2009-ish. Both obviously never happened, but clearly Fincher wants to do a movie with cooking involved, and is probably a foodie.
actionman | January 1, 2011 7:08 AM
the chef movie is called SEARED and it was written by Jesse Wigutow. Great script. Pitt was once attached. Wish he had done it a few years ago.
JAB | January 1, 2011 12:15 AM
I love Fincher & those projects sound very exciting --especially "Ram" & "Metal". (Let's face it, TSN was a shock.) But does this guy plan to work until he's a 120?

Glad to hear that "Rendezvous With Rama" ain't dead yet!

When a product is titled Egyptian Cotten 650 thread count you don't expect it to be 40% polyester and 600 thread count. I'm sure it's fine, it's just not what I expected. Title should be cotton blend so everyone is clear on what they are buying. I could have found better at a department store for the same price.
I ordered these and another set of pillowcases from Overstock at the same time. I needed new ones that would accommodate my new thicker pillows, so picked because they had a stated width of 21 in. The other pair are great, but these are barely 20 in. and I had to wrestle my pillows into them. Also disappointed that the collor is much darker than indicated in picture.
When these arrived they actually were 650 thread count, so I just knew they would be soft and comfortable. Wrong. They are not at all soft and I washed in cold water and ironed them to increase the comfort, with no improvement. The package they arrived in and the interior label, state that they are 100 % Egyptian cotton, 650 thread count, but the quality of workmanship is not great. I would not order these again, even though the price is excellent.
For years I have purchased pricey "luxury" sheets from a linen warehouse store, but they can't compare to these. Soft as can be, and these really don't wrinkle much. Best of all, they truly DO fit an extra-deep mattress that is topped with a 3-inch memory foam--no more struggling with that fitted sheet! Not only are these better than what I had been using--they're also cheaper! An excellent value.
love these pillow cases.the color is rich and they do not wrinkle badly when dried
I bought the sheets and since we don't use king pillows, i purchased the standard pillow cases separately....LOVE these cases and sheets...feels much more expensive than it is...you won't be disappointed.
Good quality sheets. Looks like they will last a long time. I'd got them to match some ripped sheets of mine but unfortunately the colour was off. Not the fault of these sheets though. Always hard to figure colours out online.
Love these pillow cases. They were just what I was looking for. Hold the color and are soft. I purchased them in King black and am very happy!!!
Good bedding is always worth the money. longer life better color stay and feel great
I was looking for an extra set of pillow cases for my king size pillows so I ordered these and they feel very nice. They have a smooth sateen feel to them, very comfortable.

QoolArchives. An Archives WordPress plugin
We would like to inform you about the QoolArchives WordPress plugin!!
This plugin tries to solve a big WordPress problem that has to do with CPU load and speed.
The problem
When you have a wordpress site with 200-400 articles, WordPress is just fine but when it comes to a site that has more than 1500-2000 posts, then WordPress is a real CPU load monster! The problem is because WordPress asks the total number of posts from the database every time we make a request, making the DB to run a full scan of the post's table. This can really kill your server!!!
The cause
Wordpress uses FOUND_ROWS. What this does is, that it asks the database for the total number of rows found on a query with no need for a second sql query to count the rows. As mentioned above, this is fine for a wordpress installation with 200-400 posts but it sucks when you have to do with thousands of posts.
The QoolArchives sollution
The plugin creates archived posts and moves the posts from the post's table to another one. Thus making the post's table smaller and easier for the FOUND_ROWS function to deal with.
Side effects
The plugin has some side-effects though.
Widgets problem
The calendar and the archives widgets will display records only for posts that have not been archived yet. So if the latest archive has been created at 28-03-2011 the calendar will display records only for days after 28-03-2011 . This is not such a big problem cause you can actually see the posts by going to a previous day :
You can download the plugin here: QoolArchives WP plugin
Any demos?
The QoolArchives plugin has been installed here: Writer.gr

Im testing your plugin and look so good! but i think you can make a FAQ for users, users what is starting with their site and users wich is using their sites years ago. I've downloaded my site and installed in local to test your plugin, i've modified your plugin a few lines because my site is 1 year old and i've changed the days what i want to archive, since first day of my site to three months ago, adding:
case "Testing":
$nowdate = date("Y-m-d H:i:s",($now-(674*86400)));
case "Testing":
$prevdate = date("Y-m-d H:i:s",($now-(337*86400)));
$nowdate = date("Y-m-d H:i:s",($now-(90*86400)));
About 23k of post was reduced to 4,5k and everything works ok for now, my sitemap don't lose the old URL's. I see a bug with pagination inside Archive Post section, you can't go to the next page because pagination crashes. Why you can select any post inside Archive Post section if you can't delete, move, edit the post?
Can we get the information of post with a custom query? maybe someone want to make a archive page for visitors, and is possible to modify archived post?, we can modify the date to archive post? for example, day X of month X of year X to day X of month X of year X
I love this plugin, great work, i'll continue testing =)
Thank you
Once I installed the plugin, I can't see any posts of mine in post page. How to retrieve back all the posts to post page?
How to get back my posts on my post page.? Please let me know. I'm struggling now.
Hey, after install how to restall it back to ori ?
cause my site content seem like everything is disappear now ….
Kerasiotis Vasileios
For all asking. There is only manual switch back to original. Copy any posts remaining from your posts table to the archives table and rename the archives table to posts table.
This will get your posts back
This plugin saved my site and my a$$ :-) works great for me on a site with 340k+ posts in the database.
I've manually imported all posts minus one week into the wp_qoolarchives_posts table and now my wp_posts table stays around 10k posts per week, QoolArchives takes care of the rest.
Donation sent, and credit (plus backlink) added into my footer.
Thank you!

Real-time camera viewfinder filters in Native code
This article explains how to create real-time camera filters, using native code (C++).
Windows Phone 8
Note: This is an "internal" entry in the Windows Phone 8 Wiki Competition 2012Q4. The author is a Nokia / Microsoft employee.
In this article, we will have a quick look how one can create real-time filters for the camera viewfinder, using native code (C++). For sake of simplicity, the example will implement a simple gray filter. For that we will use the new Windows PRT camera API that are now available in the WP8 SDK. We will also use the possibility to write C++ code, another new functionality of the WP8 SDK. The end result will look like this:
The source code of the full project can be downloaded from the link in top right corner of this page.
Why Native filters?
Microsoft has published a very similar example to this project, where they convert the camera viewfinder images to grayscale, which works well in WP7 and WP8. Get it here. This works well, but the gray filter is quite simple, more complicated filters will require more computation, and the CPU limits are quickly reached when processing VGA frames (604x480) at 30 frame per seconds. The speed gain by going closer to the metal may be needed for complex algorithm. Also, you might already have your own image filters written in C++ for other platforms, that you can reuse without converting them to C#. Finally, as we will see in other wiki entries, the native side opens further optimization possibilities, like using DirectX or the ARM Neon instruction set.
Main steps to implement
Our UI will be XAML based. The UI will control everything, while the C++ side is rather dumb, simply executing the filtering when it is asked to. Let's first create the projects for both the XAML and the C++ components:
- Start by creating a new project, of type Windows Phone App. You will find the template under the Visual C#/Windows Phone category. That will be our UI.
- Add a new project to your solution, of type Windows Phone Runtime Component. That template is under the Visual C++/Windows Phone category. That will be our image filter.
We then add a live camera stream to our UI. That is easily done by :

Blue Jackets Are Talking Trade
Getting multiple reports that GM Scott Howson and the Blue Jackets are in talks with at least 2 teams to acquire a puck moving defenseman. The rumor doesn't have enough confirmation to report but roster players are involved going both ways.
There seems to be way to much smoke not to be some fire in there. Wouldn't doubt that something could happen in the next couple days.
The scenario that surfaced last night was that the Blue Jackets were looking to make a trade with the Montreal Canadiens. The trade rumored was that the CBJ would be sending Rusty Klesla and Fredrick Modin in return for Roman Hamrlik. On paper, the trade looks like it would make a lot of sense for both clubs as the salaries would match up and it would be players needed by both teams. I will let you know if this trade rumor gets legs in the future.

If Money Talks, What Language Does It Speak?
August 20~2014
Jimmie Durham has an interesting theory about money (and about art aimed at making money). Basically, he asks: are we sure that the abominable, rapacious way that part of the world behaves with the rest of the world is the result of human nature? isn't it likely instead that this ineluctable greed is the nature of money that has infiltrated and infected the nature of humanity? A broad, all-embracing strategy that moves from weighty issues to the marketing ploys of Ronald McDonald—an amorphous, emotionless creature—who has won children over to his side.
Jimmie Durham: Waiting To Be Interrupted. Selected Writings 1993-2012
August 20~2014
Durham's primary format is storytelling, central to which is the ability to communicate experience. Edited by Jean Fisher, Selected Writing is the second, long-awaited collection of the artist's texts, produced and released in a twenty-year span. If the forms of address in the texts aim for simplicity, the use of language—peppered with puns and neologisms and digressions into multilingual etymologies—demonstrates a complexity that persistently defers our demand for easy interpretation. As Durham frequently implies, his subversion of textual logic is intended to liberate words as material from their entrapment in thoughtless conventions (blind belief), just as his play with found materials is intended to free art from its capture in the deathly inertia of monumentalism—its connection to architexture.
What Do You Need Me For?
August 19~2014
There is no denying that the digital revolution has completely transformed the traditional print mediascape in which art criticism had been embedded for centuries, and it has also led to a shift in priorities when it comes to writing critically about art and culture at large. The expansion of art world networks, along with the pressures of social and professional obligations, and the possibility for instant feedback via direct audience interaction and intervention, can lead critics to opt for a more consensus-driven approach to cultural criticism, which de facto accepts and even promotes the notion that making judgments is inherently specious, on a philosophical level, and inherently problematic on a professional one. Writer Vivian Sky Rehberg advocates for independent voices, healthy doses of friction, taking things less personally, in order to encourage a more dynamic and diverse dialogue around our cultural interests. Everyone seems to be talking, but is anybody actually listening?
"Art or Sound" at Fondazione Prada, Ca' Corner della Regina, Venice
August 18~2014
Fondazione Prada presents "Art or Sound", curated by Germano Celant, at its Venetian venue, Ca' Corner della Regina. Conceived as an investigation of past and present times, "Art or Sound" explores the relationship between art and sound and the way it has developed from the 16th century to the present day, examining the iconic aspects of musical instruments, the role of the artist-musician, and the areas in which the visual arts and music have come together.The exhibition sets out to investigate the relationship of symmetry and ambivalence that exists between works of art and sound objects.The intention is to offer a reinterpretation of the musical instrument that turns into a sculptural-visual entity and of the artworks that produce sound, in a continual encroachment and inversion of fields.
Image Ethics
August 17~2014
What does it mean to touch an image, not just to look at it? What are the ethics of the images we choose to touch, those we are allowed to see and those we do not see but know, in fact, to exist? Do the production, storage and circulation of images today imply a responsibility to them and to their care? Curator and writer João Ribas reflects on the task of attending to images and the aesthetic effects they produce, instilling in us a need to store or share them. Arguing that contemporary images force us to move beyond basic aesthetic categories into the realm of the ontology and ethics of new affects, Ribas explores the demands images make today, as well as our forms of iconoclasm and mediation. Do we need to develop ethically informed rather than legally compelled ways to deal with images in our digital condition? Or are we perhaps merely the parasitic hosts of images, which now replicate themselves through us?
The Man Without Photographs
August 16~2014
Photography, at this point, has become the intrinsic and organic container of our lives and our identity. With each new shot our deepest essence inevitably drifts towards the image of our selfies. The psycho-bio-political repercussions are there for all to see. It wasn't always this way, though. On the way to these and other considerations, Jennifer Allen analyzes the work of Christoph Westermeier, a young artist who concentrates, understandably enough, on the photographic medium. After all, his childhood family album doesn't exist, since his parents, followers of Heinz Buddemeier—who believed that photographs alter and falsify the memory of our experiences—never took any pictures of their child.

Research Connections
Drexel faculty are invited to join colleagues and liaison librarians for the opening of a renovated space in W. W. Hagerty Library. Research Connections, Room 210, is a designated faculty space within the library that provides faculty a collaborative environment for researchers from across the University to gather to reflect, share, present, and/or discuss research, interdisciplinary ideas or projects of mutual interest.
The room includes armchair seating for twelve, whiteboard and glass writing surfaces, a projector and a telephone hook-up for conference calls. Personal laptops may be used or borrowed from the Libraries' kiosk or circulation desk. If you are interested in seeing this new space, the Libraries will be hosting open house coffee hours. I'll be there to greet Westphal faculty on Thursday, May 9, from 3 to 4:30 PM.
