Director Antti Jokinen plans to film big-budget movie in Lapland
Antti Jokinen
print this
Finnish music video and commercial director
Antti J. Jokinen
plans to film a fantasy movie with the working title
Nicholas of the North
in Lapland and Rovaniemi next year. If the plan comes to fruition, the budget for the movie will be impressively large according to the Finnish scale.
The estimated budget of the movie is reported to be as much as USD 23.5 million, which is roughly equal to EUR 15 million. Typically, the budget of a Finnish movie is only around EUR 1.5 million.
The news of the launch
of the project in the spring of 2010 was leaked onto the Internet on Tuesday.
According to the makers of the movie, the fantasy film will contain ingredients that are familiar to Finns, as "Nicholas North will save himself and the entire Nordic people from the curse of evil forces".
The production company
Estar Studios, established by Antti J. Jokinen in 2006, was not willing to comment further on the contents of the movie nor on its title that would seem to refer to Santa Claus. Neither did the company specify the funding or the shooting locations of the planned film.
The Finnish Film Foundation granted a production support of EUR 60,000 to the project last February.
A number of US film producers are also involved in the venture.
In Finland
, Jokinen's Estar Studios is in charge of the project. The company is rather new, and it has so far not produced any full-length films. One of the goals of the company has been to market exclusive locations in Finland and Lapland to foreign filmmakers.
The joint aim of Jokinen and the City of Rovaniemi has been to create in the area "an international product development centre of content production".
According to the Northern Finnish newspaper
Lapin Kansa
, Jokinen's production company has been willing to lease for a studio an area of ten hectares from the city of Rovaniemi for 15 years. The area has already been dubbed Rollywood, the Hollywood of Rovaniemi.
Jokinen, 41, is a film director who has built his reputation in the USA by directing music videos and commercials.
The Resident
, the first full-length film directed by Antti J. Jokinen, is scheduled to be premiered in 2010.
The screenwriters
Nicholas of the North
will be Jokinen and
Matthew B. Wilder
, while
Guillermo Navarro
has been appointed as the principal cinematographer, according to Estar Studios.
The Mexican-born Navarro is an experienced Hollywood cinematographer whose filmography includes
The Long Kiss Goodnight
Jackie Brown
, and
Pan's Labyrinth
However, his most famous project is the Tolkien movie
The Hobbit
on which he is working with director
Guillermo del Toro
The Hobbit
is to hit screens in 2011.

If the rule of thumb for college football bettors is that a good defense will beat a good offense early in the season, then there's little question why South Carolina is a double-digit favorite against North Carolina Thursday. The borderline battle in Columbia pits UNC's high-octane offense against South Carolina's staunch defense.
The line opened with the Gamecocks laying -11 points at most places, with a smattering of 10.5 at some books tracked by Oddsshark.com. Since the start of August, the line has been as low as 10, and as high as 12, both offshore and in Las Vegas. The Gamecocks are currently holding steady at -12 with a consensus total of 57.5 across the board.
The Tar Heels averaged a school-record 40.6 points per game last season, while the Gamecocks allowed just 18.2 points per game, good enough to rank 13th in the nation.
No. 6 South Carolina, which received its highest-ever preseason ranking, is led by reigning Southeastern Conference Defensive Player of the Year Jadeveon Clowney, who recorded 13 sacks, 23.5 tackles for loss and three forced fumbles last season. Clowney, currently the second betting choice in Heisman Trophy odds, leads a unit that ranked 11th overall in 2012 and returns six starters to this year's squad.
Clowney and company face a legitimate threat against North Carolina's Bryn Renner, who has posted two straight 3,000-yard seasons while connecting with 54 touchdown strikes. Renner, the only player in UNC history to throw for 20 or more touchdowns in multiple seasons, has not thrown an interception in his last 91 attempts.
Last year he had 28 touchdown passes, breaking his own school record of 26 set in 2011. He and sophomore wide receiver Quinshad Davis pose a legitimate problem for the Gamecocks. Davis, who is from Gaffney, S.C., set UNC freshman records with 61 receptions and 776 yards last season. He also set a school record for a freshman with 15 catches for 174 yards in the Tar Heels' 37-13 victory over Virginia.
The Tar Heels have covered four straight Thursday-night appearances, but finished last season failing to cover five of their last six with a suitcase in hand.
South Carolina, on the other hand, rolls into the season on ATS win streaks of 5-1 against Atlantic Coast Conference opponents, 7-2 at home, 5-2 in non-conference play and 7-3 on Thursday nights.

Five Pillars of the Spiritual Life
Host - Fr. Robert Spitzer, S.J.
In the series, Five Pillars of the Spiritual Life, Fr. Robert Spitzer, S.J., President of Gonzaga University, presents a rich practical guide for helping busy people develop a deeper prayer life. Spitzer presents five essential means through which the contemplative and active aspects of our lives can be joined, creating a stronger spiritual life. Contemplation allows God to probe the depths of our hearts and allows us to gain deeper insight into His truth and love. This exchange allows the freedom to love in the very imitation of Jesus Christ himself, " This is my commandment, that you love one another as I have loved you." St. Ignatius of Loyola espoused the ideal of becoming "contemplatives in action." He was convinced that contemplation--the deep awareness and appropriation of the unconditional love of God--should affect our actions, and that our actions need to be brought back to our interior foundation. Fr. Spitzer shows that there are five essential means through which this communion can be attained, particularly for busy people: the Holy Eucharist, spontaneous prayer, the Beatitudes, partnership with the Holy Spirit, and the contemplative life itself. Fr. Spitzer invites viewers to contemplate the vast beauty and depth of the spiritual masters, issuing a call to a deeper spiritual life, entering ever more deeply into the heart of God.

text: Wow. That's the word that just about sums up this album. This CD is absolutely excellent, and is one of the finest CD's in the thrash genre. I also see this album as one of the best debut albums ever. Alex rips through ever song with incredible arpeggios and searing solos, while Eric keeps up the pace with his intellegent rhythms. Rhythm section leaders Greg and Louie tear it up as well (BTW, no offense to Lars or anything, but Louie blows him away). Not to mention the haunting vocals of mister Billy himself.The Band: Chuck, vocals- YES!!! One of thrashes finest vocalists does probably the best he's ever done on this album. Chuck was definately one of the reasons I was drawn to Testament. Check out his pipes on stuff like 'First Strike is Deadly' or 'Over The Wall.' And it's really cool to see that Chuck was usin' his deep voice even back then ('C.O.T.L.O.D.'), way before death metal even began! Louie, drums- Probably was the best drummer in the thrash genre (That doesn't include Dave Lombardo, Igor Cavalera or Paul Bostaph, because I consider them to be death-thrash musicians). I mean, you can't deny his greatness on tracks such as 'C.O.T.L.O.D.', 'First..', or 'The Haunting.' This guy's style is a like something you've never with a mix of Ulrich and Lombardo. It's pretty sad that Clement never got back together with T after the 'The Ritual', and he will truly be missed. Alex, lead & rhythm guitars- At first listen, I didn't really like Alex's style. The arpeggios he pulled every few seconds didn't impress me, and in some areas, began to annoy me. But, now I've become somewhat of a more intellegent guitar player, and now I see that Skolnick was in a world of his own. Man, no one has ever played like this guy has. No one has been able to pull of those super fast scales with such melody and perfection. Alex's timing and excution is another aspect of his beauty. It's sad to see him go, but I was happily shocked to see that he's worked on the new 'First Strike Still Deadly' album. (Nothing new, but great to hear him again.) Eric, lead & rhythm guitar-Ah, yes, Peterson, one of metal's finest rhythm guitarists. While his stuff on hear might not sound very incredible (but still great, mind you), Eric's work on new Testament and Dragonlord stuff shows that this man surpasses almost every rhythm guitarist, even Jon Schaffer of Iced Earth. Plus, Eric writes most of my favorite T song of all time, the horribly underrated (not to mention unused in their live set) 'C.O.T.L.O.D.' Greg, bass- This guy's bass rattles and hums all throughout 'The Legacy.' Greg's supreme talent isn't excuted here I believe (To see Greg's best, listen to the Oriental-titled instrumental on 'Low'), but he sure as heck should impress you. It's too bad this album was badly produced, but amazingly you can still hear Greg's booms. This is an excellent start for anyone who is looking for some hardcore THRASH! It's sad that not many people ever heard of this band. This is the best choice for thrash if you're lookin' for something new and are bored (well, I can't believe you can bored of these guys) with the same thrash like Metallica and Anthrax.

|Double Loop Control, Large-Scale Wind Farms, Reactive Power Compensation, STATCOM, Transient Stability
In view of a serious threat for the transient stability of the power system being caused by the large-scale wind farms integration, and combining with advantages of STATCOM which can quickly restore the fault voltage and fastly, flexibly and smoothly compensate the reactive power, a method is proposed using STATCOM controller of to improve transient stability of the power system integrated by large-scale wind farms. The control strategy of the STATCOM controller uses adaptive double loop control. The role of the device to improvement transient stability of the power system is studied under the condition of serious fault. by simulation comparison with the condition without STATCOM controller installed at the same place. The simulation results show that the STATCOM controller can clearly improve transient stability of the power system integrated by large-scale wind farms.

Question for Chris Matthews: How Many Lies Are You Willing to Tell to Get Obama Reelected?
I have a serious question for MSNBC's Chris Matthews: How many lies are you willing to tell on national television to get Barack Obama reelected?
On Friday's Hardball, the host gave viewers a plethora of falsehoods and half-truths to giving us an idea of just how far he's prepared to go this election cycle to make sure the objection of his affection remains in the White House (video follows with transcript and commentary):
CHRIS MATTHEWS: Would someone tell me how Romney's economic program differs from W's? OK. Take a while, but tell me, Mr. Turnaround, how would you have avoided the catastrophe that Bush took us into, where have you have signaled a 180, a smart course correction from the cut taxes, reduce regulation, full speed ahead, that took us careening into the worst economic horror since Hoover?
George W. Bush reduced regulations? Which ones, Mr. Matthews?
Can you name the bills Bush signed in his two terms that reduced regulations on the financial services industry for example?
As NewsBusters has been reporting since the economic collapse in the fall of 2008, the two bills that deregulated the financial services industry as well as commodities were signed in 1999 and 2000 by Bill Clinton before Bush took office.
But dishonest shills like Matthews continue to hide this immutable fact from the public repeatedly opting instead to accuse Bush of reducing regulations in those industries leading to their eventual collapse.
Matthews also neglects to mention that it was pressure from Clinton that got Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac to reduce lending requirements adding to the pumping up of the housing bubble.
The New York Times predicted in September 1999 this could lead to a crisis "in an economic downturn, prompting a government rescue similar to that of the savings and loan industry in the 1980's."
Despite all this, Matthews has the gall to point his dishonest finger at Bush:
MATTHEWS: I know the answer. I know you're a W. ditto head. I know that you believe what the last Republican skipper of this boat believed, that all a smart captain of industry has to do is what every dues-paying member of the U.S. Chamber of Congress wants him or her to do: cut taxes, give me more of my money, and stay out of my way. That's it, isn't it, Mr. Romney? You want to do for business what business wants any president to do, when it cheered when W. did it.
So, the question the voters have to ask is this: why do you expect a different result when you keep doing the same thing?
This is a really funny question coming from a man who advocates in any economy the raising of taxes and the increase of government spending. But I digress:
MATTHEWS: Why do you, Mr. Romney, expect to take us anywhere different than that downward whirlpool W. skippered us into in 2008, when we had the signal of distress, ship in trouble, and send for Hank Paulson and the salvage boats, when he and George W. Bush brought the phrase bailout into American political parlance.
Bush brought the phrase bailout into American political parlance? Really?
I guess Matthews forgot that the first U.S. bailout occurred in 1791 when debts associated with the Revolutionary War owed by a number of states were absorbed by the federal government to prevent a financial panic.
As the Wall Street Journal also observed, the federal government bailed out banks in 1907.
Of course, the largest bailout by far in American history was Franklin Delano Roosevelt's New Deal during the Great Depression.
As Matthews is a huge fan of FDR and the New Deal, how could he possibly ignore this classic bailout?
Or what about the ones that occurred while Matthews was alive such as the bailout of the railroad industry in 1970?
The following year, defense contractor Lockheed received $1.4 billion in federal aid. Franklin National Bank got $1.75 billion in 1974.
Six years later, Chrysler got $1.5 billion in loan guarantees from the U.S. government. Another $4.5 billion was given to Continental Illinois National Bank and Trust in 1984.
Just five years later, $50 billion was initially allocated to bail out ailing savings and loans. The full cost to the federal government skyrocketed to almost $300 billion.
Yet with all this history of federal government bailouts, Matthews has the unmitigated audacity to claim Bush brought the phrase into American political parlance.
And he wasn't done:
MATTHEWS: My only question is this: if the Bushes were so great, if you're squared and you're rigging to that same sinking ship W. left as president to get back to port, why do you sing the praises of Bill Clinton so often these days? Can we safely predict that the person that you will hide between now and November is the guy whose policies you're out there selling?
No wonder you don't want to mention his name. You put us on that course, mister, and we're going to the same collision.
And what about the collision course Clinton set the nation on by signing the Financial Services Modernization Act of 1999 and the Commodity Futures Modernization Act of 2000? Combined with all the pressure his administration put on Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac to make bad loans, Clinton was really the Edward John Smith of this generation.
But Matthews and his ilk never want to tell Americans the truth about who actually set the nation's course right into that iceberg in the previous decade.
That was all George W. Bush's fault despite him not creating one piece of legislation any media shills can name that tie his hands to the Titanic's steering wheel.
Imagine the lies ahead of us the next five months.
With Matthews, they appear to have no bounds.

Why in the he77 are these talking point idiots NEVER called out for their blatant lies, corruption and fraud???? The most recent high-profile victim of the MSM's constant deceit and malfeasence is the poor George Zimmerman - even when the news broke that he wasn't "white" afterall, the incompetent, lying, racist media kept coming with waves and waves of out right lies, half-truths and overall misinformation - and nothing can be done!?!?!?! When does this crap stop????
This is the best analysis I've seen to date regarding the "narrative" and the framing of the Zimmerman story - may have to cut and paste to view. The "socialist/communist" patients have almost over-run the asylum

Bush not only signed into law
Submitted by stratman on Sat, 05/19/2012 - 11:48am.
Bush not only signed into law any bill reducing legislation that promoted the financial crisis, he tried to reign in Fannie Mae and the Democrats at least twice.
I don't think Fannie Mae needed any coercion from Clinton or Barney Frank to hand out bad loans, buy up bad loans, or securitize them into bundled packages and then sell them to willing dupes. Franklin Raines, Jamie Gorelick and others were more than willing to feed the beast while banking millions themselves.
The stench of Republicans in this matter was the 1999 repeal of the Glass-Steagall Act with the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act, the final piece of the puzzle but by no means the root cause. No, the vast majority of the cause is owned by the Democrats who enjoy freedom and monetary gain without prosecution in public or the courts.
Good article, Noel. Keep the flame to Matthews tingling hide.

Noel . . bam.
Submitted by Gary Hall on Sat, 05/19/2012 - 12:09pm.
Indeed; you note . .
George W. Bush reduced regulations? Which ones, Mr. Matthews?
Can you name the bills Bush signed in his two terms that reduced regulations on the financial services industry . .?
. . . then ask the burning questions.
That and the daily, "We can't afford to return the the failed policies of President Bush which created this crisis?"
Just what were those policies - once again. Can anyone name them? OK, the response to 9/11 and the Iraq War ran up a big bill, and some of Bush's bi-partisan spending did indeed lead to a sizable increase in debt - and that is a problem in the long haul to be sure - however, that had nothing to do with the financial collapse which resulted from the collapse of the housing bubble.
Why is is that the Republicans can't fire back with these elementary questions, in rebuttal to those ridiculous charges? The POTUS and his VP, major voices in the MSM, and Democratic pundits levy the charges almost ever day - the the R's display nothing more than lock jaw.
And speaking of Hoover, as Mathews did . . I recall the words of a certain very popular with the MSNBC crowd progressive economist by the name of Dean Baker, CEPR, who offered up in March of 2001, reflecting back on the economic crisis Clinton left to Bush:A Year After Warning of Stock Collapse, Economist Cites Political Leaders' "Negligence"
An economist who predicted a collapse of stock prices a year ago, when the NASDAQ composite index was near its peak, said today that "the nation's political leaders chose to ignore the stock market bubble" -- and "as a result, millions of families have seen their dreams of a secure retirement or their children's college education vanish."
OK - let's play the Matthew's game: "it's all Bill Clinton's fault."
"The decline in the stock market was an entirely predictable event for anyone familiar with basic arithmetic [..] As a result, millions of families have seen their dreams of a secure retirement or their children's college education vanish with the stock market bubble. The level of negligence of the nation's political leaders in ignoring the stock bubble exceeds anything since the days of Herbert Hoover."
He's talking about the Clinton era - not the Bush era, folks. They are the ones with the historic monolith government policies and the financial deregulations, which plowed the ground settting the stage for the current crisis. Bush stands guilty of not getting in the way of the ultimate crash - and that is the direction the conversation must take.
It's a given that Chris Matthews would celebrate a return to the policies of the Clinton years, as would the entire MSM. Just why would they do that again?
Great stuff, Noel. Let's hope that Romney reads it.

I now view anyone that supports the reelection of the obviously Kenyan-born communist fraud that goes by the name of Barack Hussein Obama to be someone that willingly supports the destruction of America as founded.
And I am well beyond sick to damn death of the lot of them.
Chris Matthews is nothing but a sniveling, cowardly communist puke that shouldn't be allowed to even visit this country, much less live in it.
Why this country even tolerates people rooting for its very destruction to draw breath within its borders is beyond me.

...to get Barack Obama reelected? - as many as it will take. But since his ratings are so low - basically leftist extremists - it really doesn't matter. With all of the lefty MSM working hard to reelect Obama, it appears only to hurt him as new polls show Romney gaining momentum.

Noel: Isn't it interesting
Submitted by NCfairandbalanced on Sat, 05/19/2012 - 2:44pm.
Isn't it interesting that Matthews does not rebut your claims of him lying? Now, I know what he would say. "I won't dignify these claims and give free publicity to MRC and NB, hence my silence".
That is not believable. Why doesn't Chris's most trusted adviser tell him to rebut Sheppard and make him look like the idiot. Bring down NB! Bring down Brent Bozelle and the MRC!
Here's that trusted adviser's problem: He can't rebut, because HE knows the truth every bit as much as you do, Noel. And, probably so does Matthews himself. But as long as people believe him...
Isn't that pathetic? By the way (as my name indicates) I would feel the same way if our side perverted the truth to carry out an agenda. I just don't see it there. At least, certainly not to this degree.

Submitted by Benjamin on Sun, 05/20/2012 - 1:06am.
was not standing up to the Democrats when Nancy Pelosi and her minions took over Congress in 2007. If you look at a graph of our national debt, it has almost doubled since 2007. There was also too many RINOS who just went along. People don't remember, but in 2008, there were two stimulus bills pushed through (and Bush signed) before the collapse. They did nothing but jack up the debt.
I recall Pelosi's first speech to the House when she took over as Speaker. She said "NO....NEW....DEFICIT....SPENDING"! And now, after about 8 trillion in debt, where are we?

But I don't think you've actually given this much thought. In your rush to defend Bush and blame reduced financial regulations on Clinton, are you in turn actually advocating for MORE regulations?
I'm also quite impressed that you listed all those other instances of the government bailing out the private sector throughout our history. Guess we had a lot more socialists than I thought, eh?

Is there a best time of day to exercise?
The best time to exercise for performance is around 6 pm, according to research on lung function, body rhythms, temperature, and hormone levels. People also were found put in more workout effort in afternoon exercise.
But morning is the best time to exercise if you want to stick with your exercise habit. Surveys show we are more likely to exercise at all if we do it first thing in the morning, before other distractions eat up our free time or give us an excuse to not exercise.
Morning Exercise - Pros and Cons
• If you want to be consistent in exercising, choosing morning exercise makes it easier to stick with your intention and get into a regular exercise habit.
• Morning workouts are less likely to be affected by disruptions in your schedule and everyday emergencies.
• If you find it hard to make time for exercise during the day, you can instead get up a little earlier in the morning to get in your workout.
• Moderate to vigorous exercise raises your heart rate and metabolism to burn more calories earlier in the day.
• The exercise afterglow can help you feel energized for hours.
• The increased blood flow through your brain helps improve your mental acuity for your daily tasks.
• A study found that morning exercise was better for sleep quality than exercising at other times of day.
• Make the most of the cool part of the day for outdoor exercise in summer - running, walking, etc.
• The air quality may be best in the morning.
• Are you training for a morning race or competition? Time-of-day specific training will let your body prepare, as well as get you into the routine you will need on race day.
• Body temperature is at its lowest 1-3 hours before awakening, making morning a time of naturally lower energy and blood flow.
• Warm-ups are very important in the morning, as your muscles have been dormant all night. Give yourself a warm-up period of at least five minutes of easy exercise before going into a higher intensity workout. Gentle stretching and flexibility exercises may also be good.
• Do you hate getting up early and working out? Choose a more enjoyable time of day and you will be more consistent with your exercise habit.
• Morning exercise isn't a magic bullet for burning more calories. Body temperature and hormones are higher in late afternoon and you may work out harder later in the day, matching the calorie-burning benefits of morning exercise.

So, last nights win was about the ugliest thing since since Medusa. Not to mention that we have had many lousy performances against bad teams. I mean really bad performances that make you wonder if the Blazers might get themselves back into the lottery.
But it was a win, and we're 9-6.
And LaMarcus has been shooting like a one armed rifleman for the better part of the season. He looks like a kid in a Toys'r'us that just realized that he's lost his parents with the ball in his hands lately. Is he a bust now?
His D is still solid, and we're still 9-6.
Plus GO has shown flashes of Shaq, Robinson, Mark Eaton, and Manute Bol- sometimes all in the same game. I mean I've never seen a guy look so dominant and lost at the same time. I don't know if he is ever going to get it together.
But somehow the team keeps scrapping out wins, and we're 9-6.
I'm really uncomfortable with the inconsistency in our offense and our reliance on guys that aren't always able to produce. I'm sure that there is somebody in the league we can get RIGHT NOW that can ease our reliance on these guys. Rudy's been shooting terribly lately. Outlaw, ohmygoodnessdon'tgetmestartedonOutlaw. Even the aforementioned Aldridge is struggling in ways we've never seen before.
Yeah but we have 3 Rookies getting serious time, none of whom have played more than about 3 games a week at any given time, an injured starting small forward, and a team that - for the first time - is getting a good effort from every team on almost every night. We also have played 9 of 15 games on the road, all of our losses have come on the road against good teams (except Golden State) and we've stolen some from good teams on the road.
And we're still 9-6. With all that room for improvement. I think we're OK.
So, chill and enjoy the ride. I know I will.

It's a popular south Phoenix church known for helping thousands of families. But overnight, vandals hit the church, breaking out windows and causing hundreds of dollars in damage.
The shattered windows have left church members shaken.
It's the first time South Phoenix Baptist Church has been vandalized. It's been around for more than 50-years.
The windows are dual-pane security windows -- which means it must've took a lot of force to break them.
"I've never never seen anything like this," says Lillian Black of South Phoenix Baptist Church.
She found out Wednesday morning. Still, she didn't cancel this morning's senior workout class.
The ladies rallied and stepped over broken glass to get into the gym.
"What a shame. Why would people do something like that? The hand that's feeding you, then you would bite the hand that's fed you. It's just not right."
The vandal also broke the windows of the church's food van. The van picks up food at a food bank and brings the food back to the church. Church members hand out free food to hundreds of people at least twice a week.
"You always hope that when you're helping people they'll do better, so whenever I see something of this nature it makes me feel bad that I'm not reaching somebody," says Reverend Bernard Black.
Reverend Black has been with the church for almost 50-years. He just can't figure out why someone would want to hurt the church.
"You never know who is irate and didn't get some food or something."
It'll cost hundreds of dollars to fix -- money that could have been spent buying food or clothes for people in need.
"They damaged not only the church but they damaged the community because this church does a lot for the community. So they're damaging themselves as well," says Black.
Despite what has happened, the church will continue to hand out food boxes Thursday morning. Anyone with information is asked to call Phoenix Police.

SAN FRANCISCO — Hackers on Wednesday posted personal information about more than 100 San Francisco transit officers online after apparently breaching the police association website.
An anonymous posting on Pastebin.com listed the names, home addresses, email addresses and passwords of 102 officers and said they were taken from the website of the Bay Area Rapid Transit (BART) Police Officers Association.
The website, bartpoa.com, was inaccessible Wednesday afternoon and displayed a message saying it had been "locked."
The anonymous poster said the information was released in retaliation for BART's bid last week to shut down cellphone service to limit a protest over the fatal shooting by BART police in July of a knife-wielding homeless man.
The hacker group Anonymous, which has targeted BART websites previously, denied involvement in the latest attack, saying it was carried out by "some random joe."
"The leak today of BART officer data could be the work sanctioned by those who truly support anonymous, or agent provocateurs," Anonymous said on a Twitter account @AnonyOps, used by the loose-knit group.
"Hacktivists" with Anonymous have previously attacked the websites of Visa and PayPal, among others, after they stopped accepting donations for Wikileaks.

Bullied pupils get lower grades
Updated 8:09am Thursday 17th April 2014 in News By Siobhan Ryan, Health reporter
Bullying is having a significant impact on academic performance and is leading pupils to achieve lower grades at GCSE level, according to new research.
The Annual Bullying Survey, published by Brighton-based anti-bullying charity Ditch the Label, has highlighted a direct correlation between bullying and the negative impact it has on education.
The report points out areas of concern, those most at risk and the long-term impact bullying is having on the lives of millions of young people.
More than 30 schools and colleges around the country were involved in the study, which is based on the answers of 3,600 people aged 13 to 18.
- GCSE results day live
- Rats found at takeaway
- Lib-Dem claims he will out-green the Greens
- Arrest after death of dog walker
- GCSE results set to remain above average
It showed 56% of bullied pupils felt it was having a detrimental impact on their education, and those experiencing bullying were more likely to achieve a grade D or below at GCSE level.
Pupils achieving an A* or A grade in English were more likely to have never been bullied, with 41% claiming they had received the top marks.
Only 26% of those being bullied received an A* or A grade, according to the report.
The trends were also similar across the subjects of science and maths.
The report found 45% of young people had experienced bullying before the age of 18, with the majority being mocked about their personal appearance.
A further 61% said they had been physically attacked, with 30% going on to self-harm and 10% saying they had attempted suicide.
Liam Hackett, founder and chief executive officer of Ditch the Label, said: "Our survey shows the profound effect bullying is having upon the studies, self-esteem and future prospects of millions of young people across the UK.
"It is my hope that our research, message and intervention programs will be used not only to raise awareness of the severity of bullying but will also help us to reframe the prejudices and perceptions within wider society."
Professor Ian Rivers, an expert in human development and the head of the School of Sport and Education at Brunel University, said: "Very able pupils are disadvantaged by their constant experiences of bullying and this ultimately means that schools that fail to tackle bullying effectively will also face questions from Ofsted as grades decline.
"Taken cumulatively, this report shows that we have still got a great deal to do to ensure that our young people are safe in our schools and able to learn in a supportive educational environment."
Ditch the Label works with schools and colleges and supports thousands of vulnerable young people, both online and offline.

To try to help combat bullying, songs can teach children about kindness and tolerance. The song "Be a Buddy, not a Bully" can be heard on YouTube:

This year's Cannes jury president Steven Spielberg, whose "Lincoln" won two Oscars out of 12 nominations, has not lost his taste for recreating history. The filmmaker has begun developing Stanley Kubrick's "Napoleon" screenplay as a miniseries. Spielberg, who collaborated with Kubrick on 2001's "A.I.," is working with Kubrick's family to bring the abandoned 1970s project to TV.
The Stanley Kubrick exhibit currently on view at LACMA offers a room full of extensive documents and artifacts for "Napoleon" (see above), including a letter to actor Oskar Werner ("Jules and Jim," "Fahrenheit 451") offering him the eponymous role, and a polite rejection letter from Audrey Hepburn, turning down the part of Josephine. The project was ultimately put aside after it proved to have a multitude of budget and production challenges, as envisioned by perfectionist Kubrick.
Jeffrey Wells believes that Kubrick's "Napoleon" would have been a reprise of the movie Kubrick made instead when UA and MGM wouldn't back his ambitious period epic, the languorously gorgeous pre-Napoleonic "Barry Lyndon," which pioneered the use of low-light naturalistic cinematography. You can read the "Napoleon" script here.
Spielberg tributed Kubrick last October at a LACMA gala held on the eve of the exhibition's opening. If this miniseries gets made, it will be yet another example of major film talent turning to television to back the large-scale projects that Hollywood eschews. (Spielbergh's done big-budget TV before, of course, from HBO's "Band of Brothers," which broke out Damian Lewis, to "Pacific.")

A little-known film auteur named Ernie Tarte had begun production on Kubrick's version of "Napoleon." When knowledge of the Spielberg version reached him, Tarte contacted me and I was on the receiving end of a spewing tirade--just a little something to get off his chest. I have an account of his response on our blog at The Underground Multiplex: http://tiny.cc/0g5ftw

No! spielberg.. just no... keep your dirty hollywood hands away from this.. f*ck you...
Mini series???
does mini sound like a word worthy of Kubrick?
Spielberg you should be ashamed .

Miami had been flirting heavily with a loss for the past week and-a-half, but a curb-stomping at 11-14 Wake Forest wasn't exactly what doubters had in their forecast. I loathe, loathe, loathe the "good loss" talking point, but I'm willing to acknowledge that there might be some merit to it in this instance.
The Hurricanes handled the success of the Duke win well, but the Carolina blowout that propelled them to top line status on mock brackets all over the Internet seems to have been a turning point. Since then, Jim Larranaga's team hasn't played with that same poor, hungry driven mindset that led it to the best ACC start by a team other than UNC or Duke since 1981.
Miami is like every other team in the country this season outside of maybe Indiana: Not good enough to win a national title on pure talent alone. Parity is so great this season in college basketball that if you show up to any game without a desire (or at least a will) to defend, then you're probably going to get embarrassed. That's what happened to the Canes today, and it's why their 14-game winning streak is no more.
Agree with it or not, the consensus from Bracketologists the world over is that Gonzaga would be a No. 1 seed if the NCAA Tournament started today. They should root for the WCC to be this down every year.
It's come against the bottom of the Big East, but Louisville has looked like the top-tier national title contender everyone thought they were in early January their last two times out. This is what Rick Pitino teams have done in recent years, so no one should be particularly surprised.
In Saturday's 79-61 rout of Seton Hall, junior center Gorgui Dieng scored a career-high 23 points by hitting 10-of-11 from the field. The most impressive thing about the performance was that seven of those 10 makes were jump shots; it wasn't the typical high-percentage shooting game from a big man where all but one or two of his makes are lay-ups and dunks. If Dieng is near this level of good, then U of L is awfully tough to beat.
Guards Peyton Siva, Russ Smith and Kevin Ware also combined for nine steals, as Louisville forced 19 Seton Hall turnovers. Perhaps more importantly, the Cards only turned the ball over nine times themselves.
A huge win today for Team Towson, which knocked off preseason CAA favorite Drexel, 72-71. With just two games to go in the regular season, the team which was in the middle of a record 41-game losing streak just 13 months ago now sits alone in second place in the Colonial standings. The Tigers have won six of their last seven seven, and their 16 wins are already the most the program has seen since 1995-96.
Pat Skerry for Team USA coach in 2016.
Vanderbilt, which entered today 10-15 overall, 4-9 in a bad SEC and with a 50-33 loss to 7-20 Marist on its resume, just beat Mississippi State by 41 points (72-31). Help is coming, as Rick Ray has a pair of top 100 recruits entering the fold next season...but my goodness.

April's parents release statement
April's parents, Coral and Paul Jones, have released a statement on the search for their daughter.
They say they are grateful for the support they have received from around the world, since their 5-year-old daughter went missing 10 weeks ago.
The messages and support from all over the world have continued and we remain grateful that we are in people's thoughts and prayers. The empathy shown towards us by not only local people but those from afar has shown us that people really do come together during difficult times.
We are extremely grateful to Dyfed Powys Police for their continued efforts to find April. The dedication and determination shown by the search teams who have come from all over the UK has been truly amazing. We take comfort to think that they will be returning to their families to earn a well deserved rest over the Christmas and New Year period.
– Coral and Paul Jones
We understand that Christmas will be a particularly difficult time without April being amongst us but as parents of Harley and Jazmin we will obviously acknowledge the festive season as best as we can. We sincerely hope that families around the world will enjoy a peaceful and loving Christmas.

Can EnergySolutions buy favor in Utah?
Here's an interesting story by AP writer Brock Vergakis out of Salt Lake City, updating an earlier story in which Energysolutions offered the state of Utah some of the net revenues from a project to dispose of foreign waste if the state dropped its objections. (The low-level rad wastes from Italy would be processed initially at the company's Oak Ridge waste facility with the residues then sent to the EnergySolutions landfill at Clive, Utah, for disposal.)
SALT LAKE CITY (AP) - EnergySolutions Inc. said Friday it is in settlement talks with Utah aimed at getting the state to drop its objections to importing foreign nuclear waste for disposal in the state.
The company wants to import as much as 20,000 tons of low-level radioactive waste from Italy through the ports of Charleston, S.C., or New Orleans. After processing in Tennessee, about 1,600 tons would be disposed of in the desert about 70 miles west of Salt Lake City.
If approved by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission, it would be the largest amount of radioactive waste ever imported into the country.
"We believe that it is in the best interest of the state, the citizens of Utah and EnergySolutions to settle this matter and we hope the state considers this proposal," EnergySolutions spokesman Mark Walker wrote in an e-mail to The Associated Press.
"Since this issue is still before the court and in settlement discussions it would be inapp ropriate to comment further." he wrote.
The talks began after a federal judge ruled against an effort by western states to block the import of the nuclear waste. In addition, Utah is facing a $700 million budget shortfall and newly installed Gov. Gary Herbert is trying not to raise any taxes.
Herbert's spokeswoman Angie Welling didn't immediately respond to requests for comment. Paul Murphy, spokesman for the Utah Attorney General's Office, declined to comment.
Vanessa Pierce, executive director of the nuclear waste watchdog group Healthy Environment Alliance of Utah, was angered the state would consider any type of settlement.
"If Gov. Herbert signs off on this deal, plain and simple, he's a weak leader. He's unwilling to stand up to EnergySolutions in order to protect our state's rights," she said.
Former Gov. Jon Huntsman objected to bringing the waste to Utah and used a regional compact created by Congress that manages low-level radioactive for eight states to block it.
In February, the company said it would offer Utah 50 percent of its net revenues from the disposal of foreign nuclear waste. Huntsman scoffed at the proposal, saying the long-term impact wouldn't be worth a temporary financial windfall.
Since then, a federal judge has ruled that the regional compact doesn't have the authority to regulate the facility and keep the foreign waste out. The state and compact have appealed the decision.
In May, Herbert had said he wouldn't do anything differently than Huntsman in regard to the effort by EnergySolutions.
"We have been very consistent on saying that we don't think that we want to have foreign waste imported into Utah. And the reason for that's very simple, we have plenty of domestic waste," Herbert said at the time.
Huntsman resigned in August to become U.S. ambassador to China, leaving Herbert, who had been his lieutenant governor, in charge until a special election in 201 0.
