wanted to slag off your so-called 'Facebook
friends' without them knowing; or tell your workmates what you really
think of the boss without him ever finding out? Crypto them! It's quick
and easy and a lot of fun, too! Of course, there's a serious side to
Crypto which we'll talk about later.
There are two apects to using Crypto; the key, and the message you want to hide from prying eyes. The key can be any single word, or any phrase, sentence or group of symbols you care to choose. It is only known by you and by the person or group of people you wish to share it with.
we come to the secret message itself! With the key entered as explained
above, simply click the tab 'Crypto message box'
(the default) and begin typing your message. Easy! Look at the next
image. The secret key,'Stars
and Stripes 2012!' has been entered and I've entered some
'secret' info on the Declaration of Arbroath, just for example purposes.
By the way, the secret message can be one or two words long (maybe a web page url, for example) or several thousand words long (the latest chapter in your life story, perhaps). That's up to you. Crypto can handle it all at lightning speed!
Note:- if the size of the text is causing you a bit of a problem, go to the Text size buttons marked with a '+' symbol, and a '-' symbol, located at the top right of Crypto. Click on one or the other as many times as required to increase or decrease the size of the text. Very handy!
entered your secret key and written a
message you don't want the rest of the world to read. So what's the
next step? Look at the image. It shows the 'Crypto message box functions:'
which are to be found at the bottom left of Crypto, below the
message box.
Now click the button marked 'Make secret!'. In less time than it takes you to blink, Crypto has scrambled your message into unreadable gobbledigook! Cool or what.
|Now copy the gobbledigook to your computer's clipboard by clicking the 'Copy to' button, as seen at the bottom of the next image, and then head on over to Facebook.
important point to note! When making your message secret - by
clicking the 'Make secret!'
button - you can click the button as often as you want to. In other
words, you can turn the first load of gobbledigook into yet
gobbledigook, making it even harder for anyone to decipher your message!
Of course, the reverse is the case when it comes to revealing the message. Just keep clicking the 'Reveal secret!' button until the message becomes readable. Simple.
Very important! If you click the 'Reveal secret!' button and nothing seems to be happening, check your key. It's probably wrong, or the message is not meant for you!
You've clicked the Clipboard: 'Copy to' button and loaded the contents of the message box into your computer's clipboard. Now right click your mouse in Facebook, select paste and then post to the world, just like you would with any message. Check out the Bin The Union page (and add a like, please, if you would be so kind). See the gobbledigook?
any friend with whom you've shared the key with, and who has their own
copy of Crypto, will be able to read your secret message. But no one
else will be able to!
All they have to do is enter the exact same key into their copy of Crypto and then carefully highlight the gobbledigook message in Facebook and right click with their mouse to copy to their own computer's clipboard. Note the word carefully! Don't copy any extra words, letters, spaces when doing this. Otherwise you will not be able to decrypt the message!
Now click the 'Paste from' button in Crypto to paste the message into Crypto's message box.
To reveal the secret message, simply click the 'Reveal secret!' button in Crypto as many times as neccessary to reveal the contents of the message. That's it!
Remember, if nothing happens when clicking the 'Reveal secret!' button, chances are the key you've entered is wrong - or the message is not meant for you.
|There's a serious side to Crypto!
You'd better believe it. Millions of people use Facebook and other social media sites every day. And every day, they leave some extremely personal information on these sites for all the world to see. Probably more than they should. Crypto enables users to take back control of their privacy.
For example, perhaps you want to pass on some private details to members of your family and no one else. So use a 'family' key, one which only members of your family know about. If you want to discuss some aspect of work with your colleagues, for example, use a 'work' key. The family and work keys should be completely different so that individual members of either group will not be able to read the other group's messages.
You can have as many different keys as you want, each targetting a different group. It's completely up to you. Use Crypto when you send email to a recipient on a regular basis. Email traffic is easy to intercept. It is certainly not secure. However, using Crypto, it will be!
Use Crypto off-line, too. Perhaps you're compiling a special report for your boss. Put down your thoughts in Crypto - and then scramble it with a secret, personal key. Paste it into a Word document which you then can save as you you would normally do. Copy back into Crypto and put in your special key. There it is, back again for you to work on some more.
What about creating a secret, personal diary? It's all very easy to do with Crypto!
How secure is Crypto?
There's no system that's completely secure and Crypto is no exception. Put it this way, the CIA and MI5 would be able to decrypt the messages, given the super computers and other resources at their disposal. But not so the 99.999% of users of Facebook, for example!
To make things harder, change your keys on a regular basis. Use obscure keys - in other words, something nobody would be able to guess given the public information available on you. For example, if it's known you're a fanatical Manchester United fan, don't use 'Sir Alex Ferguson' or 'Wayne Rooney' as keys. Better keys would be 'Sir Alex Ferguson is the greatest manager in the world 2012' and 'Wayne Rooney is a fantastic goalkeeper - not!'. Or don't use anything to do with football at all. Hopefully, you get the picture.
Use a book to enable you to change keys regularly. How? Firstly, make sure everyone in the group uses the same book - and the same edition of the book. Then, to change a key, email them the page number (NOT THE TITLE!!), followed by the line number, followed by the number of words of the line to use.
For example, 26/12/7 (which is all you would send, nothing else) means page 26, line 12, the first seven words. That would be your key. Change it on a monthly, weekly, or even daily basis. It's entirely up to you!

KNOXVILLE (WATE) - A Knox County Sheriff's Office motorcycle officer, the Police Chief of the Newport Police Department and one other were transported to UT Hospital after a motorcycle wreck during the "Ride for Life" on Saturday morning.
According to the KCSO, a group of motorcycle riders were driving northbound on Clinton Highway around 11:20 a.m.
NPD Chief Maurice Shults then struck the saddlebag of KCSO Sgt. Roger Sexton's motorcycle. Shults was thrown off his motorcycle and landed in the median.
These chain of events caused Donald Zerillo to lose control of his motorcycle, which struck the back of Clyde Cowan's motorcycle. Zerillo's bike then fell over.
Sgt. Sexton and Shults were transported to UT Hospital for non-life threatening injuries. Rural Metro transported Zerillo to UT Hospital. The extent of his injuries is unknown at this time.
Shults was released from the hospital on Saturday afternoon. He tore a ligament in his left shoulder.
Alcohol was not a factor in this accident. The KCSO is investigating the cause of the crash.

Welcome to the Palisades
The Palisades area is located in Northwest Washington along the Potomac River, between Key
Bridge and Chain Bridge. Hugging the Potomac River with its high bluffs and breathtaking sunsets, the Palisades is a treasure of green spaces in the nation's capital.

Welcome to the Palisades
Our area is laced with winding parks where dappled light filters through canopies of old trees. It's filled with quiet streets and dotted with houses all of varying styles, from a loving home originally built as a late 19th century dance hall to detailed Victorian designs to the more modern homes.

Welcome to the Palisades
Ask anyone why we consider this a small town in a big city and you're likely to get the same answer: the people who live here.
They are some of the friendliest in Washington.

Welcome to the Palisades
We're an eclectic mix of all ages and sizes, lots of families (and pets) and folks with wide-ranging interests and incomes. But we all care about our community and give a lot to make it special.

Welcome to the Palisades
Whether it's maintaining flower beds in the median lining MacArthur Boulevard, rebuilding the children's playground and landscaping at our local Recreation Center, or creating our own tax-exempt fund to support community projects, this is definitely a community of doers.

Welcome to the Palisades

Safeway Update
Updated May 7, 2014
Safeway representatives continue to revise their proposal and think that they will be able to share their new plans in a few months. They confirmed that they plan to present a new proposal to the community when it is completed. The PCA has agreed to host a special meeting dedicated to discussing their revisions when Safeway is ready.
The PCA has retained DC zoning attorney Marty Sullivan to help us prepare for Safeway's planned unit development application to the city. In December, we also secured the help of transportation consultants Symmetra Design, who are in the process of conducting an independent analysis of traffic, parking, and in the months to come, Safeway's zoning application.

Drew, you have a pretty nice shop in which to work. I have always thought that having a stand alone shop is the way to go. (I occasionally get yelled at if I start up my planer before my wife is out of bed). :) And I like the windows that you have in your shop. I find that working under natural light is much easier for me.
You have made some nice benches and tables for your shop and you have a nice set of tools to play with.
Thanksf or the pictures. I enjoyed touring your shop.

Thanks for the comments. Helluvawreck no I didn't build it myself, as far as I can tell the original structure was built circa 1970.

Easy come. Easy go. Hope you got a chance to get out and enjoy the warm weather, because we're getting cooler again. We even have a chance for snow this week.Tonight's partly cloudy with lows down to the 30s. Tomorrow's back to the mid 50s, but skies are cloudy in front of a disturbance that could bring snow or a wintry mix to the Mid-South. Tuesday night through Wednesday morning may at best see a dusting of snow. It will clear out by late in the morning Wednesday leaving us cold.Temps rebound a little Thursday, but only to the upper 40s.

Tracy Rosenberg is the executive director of Media Alliance, an action and resource organization in Oakland advocating just, accountable and diverse media. She has been a listener representative on the KPFA Local Station Board since 2007 and a member of the Pacifica National Board of Directors since 2010. We asked her to comment on the situation from her perch as an insider. Here's what we talked about.
September 18, 2013
Who is this terrorist, this big bad JR Valrey who poses some sort of threat to the whole Pacifica network of five major radio stations around the country? First, he's my friend and comrade at the Bay View, where we've worked together for over a dozen years, all his adult life. JR is our associate editor. During the same period, he's also volunteered at KPFA radio, where his hard and highly acclaimed work finally won him a prime time show – Wednesdays at 8-9 a.m. – starting in May 2011. Immediately, listeners flocked to KPFA to hear this exciting new show.
March 20, 2013
For the second week in a row, one of the largest audiences for any show on KPFA was disappointed not to hear the People's Minister of Information JR Valrey and his Block Report on the air Wednesday at 8 a.m. Instead we heard an announcement by interim general manager Andrew Phillips that JR has been suspended. Getting punished for doing "too well" happens to Black folks much too often. Sign the two petitions to end the suspension of JR Valrey from KPFA and attend the Town Hall Meeting, Thursday, April 11, 6 p.m. at Laney College. This story is constantly being updated with new signatures and comments.

JohnThank you for the response. We did get the old pin out. The first picture is of a plate that was between the pin and the axle carrier. It had 3 tack welds on it and they broke when removing the pin from the axle housing. The pin slid through the first picture and all of that set in the indent in the axle housing. Thoughts?

Follow me on my mission of
saving money and losing tummy
A guy told me I was too fat to date.
This is my version of revenge.
For most of my life, I've had a self diagnosed eating disorder called half-bulimia. I binge eat, but skip the purging part. I'm putting an end to that.
Good news is, I love to cook. I am a firm believer in trying anything once. What I am not, is an innovative cook. I haven't really tried to develop my own recipes... until now! Woohoo! What I've found most frustrating, as a person who pretty much lives paycheck to paycheck, is that healthy food is really. friggin. expensive. Thanks, America. Now I'm on a mission: to make cheap, healthy and delicious meals. Seems simple enough, right? We will see!

Routes Sorted
L to R R to L Alpha
Four routes from 10a to 12c. Rarely will you see anyone here, but the routes are fun, especially the 11a and 11d. East and south facing.
Getting There
From the typical parking at the end of the Calico road, cross the wash and head right towards the Monkey Bar Boulder, passing the Plumber's crack boulder after a couple of minutes' hike. Once at Monkey Bars, several trails allow a choice of wash, near the wash, and higher up. Staying out of the wash but near it seems best-you will be entering Gateway Canyon as the walls close in. Walk about three minutes past where you enter Gateway, past a couple of overhanging bolted routes that seem decidedly non-moderate-this is Conundrum Crag. If the routes you find appear very close together and quite easy, you have most likely found Family Crag and you have gone slightly too far. Backtrack without dropping back into the wash and you're right there.

(a) Illustration: A Player with a Player Salary of $1.5 million becomes unfit to play for more than 24 days and 10 games. At the time the Player becomes unfit to play, the Club has an Averaged Club Salary of $39.5 million, and the Upper Limit is $40 million. The Club may replace the unfit-to-play Player with another Player of Players with an aggregate Player Salary and Bonuses of up to $1.5 million. The first $500,000 of such replacement salary and bonuses shall count toward the Club's Average Club Salary, bringing the Averaged Club Salary to the Upper Limit. The Club may then exceed the Upper Limit by up to another $1 million as a result of the replacement salary and bonuses. However, if the unfit-to-play Player once again becomes fit to play, and the Club has not otherwise created any Payroll Room during the interim period, then the Player shall not be permitted to rejoin the Club until such time as the Club reduces its Averaged Club Salary to below the Upper Limit.

While high-profile Oscar contenders like Best Picture winner "Argo," "Zero Dark Thirty" and "Django Unchained" all had various amounts of haterade poured all over them, one movie that was pretty much untouchable all season long was "Life Of Pi." Outside of the whole mini VFX controversy thing -- which really only happened after the Oscars -- Ang Lee and his film were embraced by the industry, winning four statuettes for Best Director, Best Cinematography, Best Score and Best Visual Effects. But certainly, not everyone was taken with the movie.
The usually opinionated and salty cinematographer Christopher Doyle recently sat down with Blouin and made his feelings quite clear on "Life Of Pi" and the work behind it. "Okay. I'm trying to work out how to say this most politely, and no offense to – I don't know him personally – but what a total fucking piece of shit," he declared about Claudio Miranda's win for Best Cinematography. "Let me be blunt. Ah, fuck. I don't care, I'm sure he's a wonderful guy and I'm sure he cares so much, but since 97 per cent of the film is not under his control, what the fuck are you talking about cinematography, sorry. I'm sorry. I have to be blunt and I don't care, you can write it. I think it's a fucking insult to cinematography."
But his anger seems more to be at the voting body ("Do you know the average age of the people who vote? Sixty-five. Check it out.") and the idea of anyone outside the cinematographer working on the look of the movie. "Of course they have no fucking idea what cinematography is.The lunatics have taken over the asylum, but you know we have other asylums in other parts of the world and I live in one of them, and I intend to continue to be a lunatic," he (kind of) explained. "...The award is given to the technicians, to the producers, it's not to the cinematographer. I think he should've actually, if it were me, I would've said fuck off. But of course it's his career. Sorry. Personally, as you probably realised, I will say fuck off. If somebody manipulated my image that much, I wouldn't even turn up. Because sorry, cinematography? Really?"
So, from his perspective, was it weird for "Life Of Pi" to win Best Cinematography? "No it's not a strange choice if you understand how fucked up people are and how lost they are. You bail out your bankers, support your rich people, you say Spielberg and Tarantino are the gods of cinema. Hey, good luck." Um, okay.
But his vitriol on Oscar contenders didn't stop there. " 'Lincoln'! Oh! Let's talk about patriotism. Do you not fucking realise the rest of the world just sits back laughing. Do you not realise that you poor old fuckers with your Academy bullshit, you're just sitting back, holding onto straws. You're holding onto straws. Let's get on with it. I don't give a fuck what you think about me," he said. "Some of us have to engage with the real world. And it happens not to be about the history of Mr. Lincoln freeing the slaves – which was the most disgusting first three minutes of a film I've ever seen. 'Oh, Mr Lincoln, oh, but you understand…' stop fucking fluffing yourselves."
However, Doyle is not a total crank and his admiration and inspiration comes from unlikely corners. "Ai Weiwei is the Tom Hanks of Chinese cinema," he enthused. "Ai Weiwei is so fucking beautiful on film because he's so solid, he doesn't give a shit. He is the great male star of the future of Chinese cinema. Please quote me. He's the George Clooney of the new wave. Once he sees [the footage] he'll either burn everything we ever shot or he'll embrace it."
And he looks to the young generation to push the medium forward. "So many people ask me very often, so, how do you engage with the digital medium. I say the kids are going to teach us. We're the students," he says. "The people who are on YouTube or engaging 24 hours of almost every day of their lives, who are online and having visual digital experiences every day, they're the ones who are going to teach us."
As for how he'll wrap up his own career? "I know I will die with either a camera in hand or a woman on top – what more could one ask of life?" How zen. [via Film]

"But his anger seems more to be at the voting body ("Do you know the average age of the people who vote? Sixty-five. Check it out.") "
Why is Doyle anti-old people? Also, it seems to me that the old members of the academy, in having voted for a movie using the latest technology, are up to date with things.
Alan R | March 20, 2013 1:47 PM
He's right. Even his own VFX team called Miranda out!
Alfred | March 20, 2013 12:27 PM
A drunk can't be stopped once their mouth starts flapping.
connie | March 19, 2013 12:45 PM
1. Claudio Miranda was also nominated by the American Society of Cinematographers.
2. Doyle talked about so much about cinematography of "Life of Pi", but he hasn't even seen the film. Doyle does have his point, but it would be better for him to watch the film before making an argument.
bob hawk | March 18, 2013 2:59 AM
Talented as Chris Doyle might be, and whether he's "right" or "wrong" (always debatable), this article is an embarrassment and should never have been given space. Whether he's off his meds, drunk or whatever, it's just an inarticulate rant, lacking any focus or specificity. It's pathetic -- and engendering over 40 comments to boot. Jeez!
Michael M. | March 17, 2013 12:18 PM
He seems like a competent man who has his life fixed. But come on? taking his opinion seriously is counter intuitive to his trolled objective. He hates the Academy and makes comparisons to the likes Tom Hanks.
Sorry but his argument is officially invalid IMO.
Oh and The Master should have collected the statuette for Cinematography.
John | March 16, 2013 5:10 PM
Tarantino is the reason Hero got international distribution. Furthermore, Doyle has publicly talked about how several scenes of Hero were saved by digital grading.
STFU Doyle and stop drinking on the job.
gilbert | March 16, 2013 5:02 AM
If this is the trend, so that means we can nominate Gollum for Best Supporting Actor?
Lisa | March 15, 2013 4:19 PM
I'd like to remind people that "Life of Pi" was one of the 5 films nominated by the American Society of Cinematographers (ASC) as one of the best-filmed movies of the year -- and, as many keep pointing out, professional cinematographers (as opposed to actors, writers, and directors) should be the ones who know which work is most worthy of praise. It doesn't seem likely to me that they would be so stupid as to nominate a film that was actually a joke from a cinematographic perspective. At the least, it certainly undercuts his argument. I agree that it is interesting to compare the history of the ASC Award Winners with the Academy Award Winners. Although the list of nominees is often similar - since the nominees for both groups are chosen by the cinematographers - it would seem to indicate that the Academy does indeed tend to lean towards the over-all final "look" of the film, CGI and all included, as compared to the ASC. It seems true that "Pi", "Hugo", and "Avatar" relied more heavily on CGI than "Skyfall", "The Tree of Life", or "The White Ribbon". Though, did he complain when "Inception" won the ASC several years ago? or when "Hugo" or "Avatar" won the Oscar? I don't know. Times are changing, and perhaps so is what constitutes cinematography. One last comment, to those who still doubt the contribution of Claudio Miranda, and who feel he was essentially shooting a guy in a boat with a blue screen behind: I would suggest that you read some of the interviews of Miranda and Ang Lee, regarding how they shot the film. I found them really interesting. Lee mentioned that he specifically chose Miranda because of his past work with both 3-D and Digital, both special skill sets in-and-of themselves. I especially remember them talking about the "candle scene". A LOT of work (and thought) went into this movie, photographically -- not the least of which was the very act of having to balance the old-fashioned cinematography with the immense computer-generated requirements.
Cole | March 15, 2013 10:30 AM
For everyone (The Fanciful Norwegian, Ronnie D, Bob, Burgersam, Daniel, DJ) who answered my question down there, thank you very much. Sorry I don't know this guy, I don't exactly know many cinematographers...
By the way, I'm not a "he", I am a "she".
CHARLES FOSTER KANE | March 15, 2013 6:41 AM
Looks like Mr. Doyle forgot to take his meds.
Gilles | March 15, 2013 5:32 AM
Nice and lively discussion here. :D
I think there are a lot of assumptions here about Miranda's role in the whole process. I can remember from the wall-e commentary (right?) that they consulted with Roger Deakins about the cinematography and I feel his influence is really felt in the sense that this is the first animated pixar film where you have great use of the aesthetic of motion picture camera's and how these behave, including things like anamorphic-like bokeh's and the use of DOF.
The assumption that Miranda only shot a guy in front of a blue screen might be unfouded. Because he might have played a major part in all the 'lighting' of the cgi environments.
That being said. You could still (as Doyle does) interpret the award as insult to the craft because the creation of all these beautiful colours and whatnot (I haven't seen the film yet) had nothing to do with the craft of cinematography. The one where you work with your hands.
Al N | March 15, 2013 5:17 AM
I would actually agree with Mr. Doyle's assessment, however, I have just one question:
Was he even sober during this interview? If you know him at all, you'll know exactly about what I am speaking. Think he'll even remember his own comments until he reads them here? Shame. A waste of a talented man.
LRS | March 14, 2013 10:10 PM
The cinematographers vote for the cinematography award. There seems to be comments as well as Doyle's comments that 'everyone' votes and they don't know. If the cinematographers voted for it, they are the 'experts' so they should know for what they're voting. Specials effects or not, there had to be some great camera work done. It didn't 't film itself. And it is beautiful. And as Doyle has said, he hasn't seen it.
Alex | March 14, 2013 9:23 PM
He's right, and as the guy who has shot most of Wong Kar Wai's best films, he has more than earned the right to comment.
Currently Hollywood | March 14, 2013 9:09 PM
I was slightly offended by the mini VFX comment, the industry is treating these guys like 1930s day Newsies, but major blockbusters rely heavily on VFX.
James | March 14, 2013 7:25 PM
Agree 100%. Anyone who doesn't agree is fucking retarded. And this isn't even about bias or jealousy or anything like that. It's about the simple fact that all Miranda did was shoot the kid on a boat to a blue background for every fucking shot. And then the VFX guys did all the magic. I understand the visual effects oscar. But cinematography? Really? That IS a fucking insult to the art. The oscars have been making some batshit idiotic choices these past few years.
Alan B | March 14, 2013 7:11 PM
I absolutely agree with Doyle's point about the Life of Pi win. I couldn't hack that nomination, let alone its win. It was just like in 2010, in which Bruno Delbonnel rocked Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, Barry Ackroyd killed The Hurt Locker, Robert Richardson shot the hell out of Inglourious Basterds and Christian Berger delivered a very original and shocking look for The White Ribbon ... and the guy who previously shot the Stallone remake of Get Carter won for a film that was predominantly CGI. For real? The other films had - arguably - some of the best cinematography of its decade, but Avatar wins, a film which has amazing visuals, but not-amazing cinematography in a CGI spectacle. It would be like a screenwriter winning for a script that was ultimately changed completely by the director. A bit of a fraud, really. It's disappointing, however, that Doyle completely lets down his argument with his 'Lincoln' rant. What a bunch of incoherent nonsense masquerading as a cogent thought: 'Oh my God, patriotism! Oh my God! Doesn't Spielberg know it's his job to tell us American sucks? What an asshole!'
Lucano | March 14, 2013 6:17 PM
Doyle can eat some Hollywood cock! It's about the final result, many old timers feel the sensation of menace when it comes to new technology. Theres more to cinematography than the technic that was applied (digital,analog,CGI,etc), for example, the composition, the use of light & colors, just to name a few.
#Doyle you lost my respect.
Glass | March 14, 2013 5:58 PM
When people say Life of Pi is "90% CGI" or something, I'm convinced they never saw the movie and they're just thinking of the trailer shots with the whale and the glassy water at sunset. Claudio can take all the credit he gets, because he busted his ass and did incredible work that shows in the final film. I guess watch the making-of on the DVD to see what I mean (or just see the movie?).
Bob Roberts | March 14, 2013 5:52 PM
He brings up an interesting point. Although, he's not able to articulate it clearly, he's saying that an old way of awarding/praising a film's look and quality is outdated with the emergence of digital technology. We have to rethink what it means to be a cinemtographer in this new age. He thinks that the look you get from the dailies on that day is the real craft of the cinematographer. If you can get over his rambling a bit, he's saying something important.
John | March 14, 2013 5:12 PM
By his own reasoning, he is to the English language what the film's cinematographer is to "Life of Pi." That is, he is entirely undeserving of the accolades he's getting here.
anon | March 14, 2013 4:36 PM
"mini" vfx controversy...its not mini to those who hollywood relies on to make their billions and the audience who hope to escape from a scary reality just lost their jobs.
the industry imploded, its a fucked up system...you should be a bit more appreciative of those that are abused for your leisure
harry | March 14, 2013 4:21 PM
Agree with Doyle almost all the way through, except the part about learning from people online all the time. That's not living, that's dying.
Dan | March 14, 2013 4:07 PM
The Masters cinematography should have won the Oscar, it was the best.
Ted | March 14, 2013 4:01 PM
I agree with on about the "Life of Pi's" cinematography. It doesn't sound like he's criticizing Miranda really, but he should have made that more clear. He comes off like a dick.
I also 100% agree about Lincoln, though. Lincoln was the only film I've ever seen where I hated it in less than 5 minutes.
Stephanie Martin | March 14, 2013 2:34 PM
Doyle cares about his craft. There's a significant difference between that and not giving a shit about the Oscars. As for Hugo, do your research. Most of the work was done in camera and on real sets.
Joe | March 14, 2013 1:40 PM
For someone who doesn't give a shit about the Oscars or it's voters, he should does spend a lot of energy and anger on it.
Jackson | March 14, 2013 12:50 PM
Also, why the hell does he care if Miranda won the Oscar if he doesn't care about Oscars?
Jackson | March 14, 2013 12:47 PM
Yawn....another "Good-At-His-Job-but-Totally-Unlikeable" crew member who thinks he is above everyone else because they win awards. I don't care if he shot Hero, he is still a canker sore of a man and would probably insult Deakins if he had the chance.
Toliet Baby | March 14, 2013 11:45 AM
I completely agree that it's ridiculous to give a movie that's 90% CGI the Oscar for cinematography. It's a travesty Roger Deakins didn't win this year.
sam | March 14, 2013 11:17 AM
and good call on the silly patriotism.
Pierre | March 14, 2013 11:16 AM
"Fuck off" "Sorry" "Fuck off" "Sorry"
haha. He's the best.

NEW BEDFORD, Mass. (MyFoxBoston.com) -- A 26-year-old woman is accused of being under the influence of alcohol in an overnight crash that killed a 23-year-old Acushnet man.
Caitlin Chouinard, of Fairhaven, has been charged with motor vehicle homicide by result of operating under the influence of liquor, negligent operation of a motor vehicle, and marked lanes violations in the fatal crash.
Investigators allege Chouinard lost control of her Jeep Liberty while traveling north on Route 140 in New Bedford at about 2 a.m. Friday. Her car flipped and came to a rest between exits 4 and 5.
Shortly after the car flipped, Adam Taylor approached in his Jeep and hit the disabled car.
Both Jeeps became engulfed in flames. Chouinard was able to escape from her car. Taylor was declared deceased at the scene.
Chouinard was treated at St. Luke's Hospital for unknown injuries. There is no word on when she will be arraigned.

Just having a chuckle over the length of your site's pieces the last few weeks. You may not know it (John!), but I have been a lurker for more years than I care to admit! Some days, durring my darkest times, finding your site to read was the only thing that kept me hanging on! However, from MY first few years (2000-2006 or so), there were MANY days where there was only four or five posts, if that much! Some days, it was just a few items of intrest that John himself found and posted, with no participation at all! Five or six posts was the NORM, not the exception! All I have to do these days to see the acceleration of the birth pangs is to see the VOLUME of happenings EVERY DAY! For those new here, take my word: what John accomplishes every day, in comparison to earlier years, is SIMPLY STAGGERING! Sorry, John-but it ain't gonna let up anytime soon! (I'm not sorry, tho! I LOVE each and every ONE!!). Please, everyone:remember John in your daily prayers for protection. The fruit this site bears is inestimable! (except to the Lord-and His opinion is the ony one that matters!). Tracy Liz
Thanks, Tracy!
The baby is about to come out!

The Broncos Are Really Good, and Other Week 2 Observations
After two weeks, one thing appears clear:
The Denver Broncos are the class of the AFC.
In their first two games, they've scored 90 points against the last two Super Bowl champions. The next highest scoring team, the Packers, only has 66. It hasn't been all offense, either – they have a plus-40 net points total, tops in the league.
They're only the fourth team to beat the previous two Super Bowl winners in back-to-back weeks, and the first since the '92 Cowboys and '92 Eagles took down the Redskins and Giants to open and close the season, respectively. Perhaps neither Baltimore nor New York are as good as they were when they were world champions, but the point is that the Broncos aren't running up these totals against the Jaguars or Raiders – they're beating at least decent teams, and beating them badly.
The scary part is, they're not even dominating from cover to cover yet. In both their first two games, they started out slowly, up only 10-9 at halftime against the Giants, and trailing 14-17 at the half against Baltimore. While they haven't trailed in the fourth quarter for 11 straight regular season games, this has been a team that's struggled to start early. They have issues with their running game – a fumble from rookie Montee Ball at the goal line kept the Broncos from scoring on their first possession, for example, and it was Knowshon Moreno that took the load on the ground. They were penalized 13 times for 132 yards, keeping Giants drives alive and pushing them back further. There's room to clean some of that up, which is a frightening thought for their rivals in the AFC.
None of their struggles matter when you have Peyton Manning in prime-Manning form. Through two games, he has 769 passing yards, nine touchdowns and zero interceptions. It's not just that he's throwing for insane yardage – he's protecting the ball while doing it. No one has ever thrown for more yards to open a season without turning the ball over, nor has anyone thrown as many touchdowns without turning the ball over.
His receivers have been benefiting, too, as Manning isn't just getting them the ball, he's getting it to them in space. For the second consecutive week, they went over 100 yards after the catch as they surgically destroyed the Giants secondary, aided by an offensive line that didn't allow a single sack.
"I feel at times we got to the quarterback, but we just didn't get a handle on him," Giants defensive end Jason Pierre-Paul said. "I don't feel like we put that kind of pressure on him."
With their next game being a home game against Oakland on Monday night, the Broncos have time to experiment and fix the minor issues they still have to deal with. One thing remains clear – with the possible exception of a trip to Foxborough in week 12, the Broncos should be favored in every game they play the rest of this regular season, and the rest of the AFC is trying to catch up.
Other observations from the second week of football:
- No one beats up on the San Francisco 49ers – if you beat them, its close an hard fought. That is, unless you're the Seattle Seahawks playing at home, where they don't just have the 49ers' number; they appear to have the entire league's. For the second straight time, the 49ers have come up to Seattle for a key divisional battle and left with their tail between their legs. The score got more out of hand at the end of the game than the actual level of play would indicate, but don't let that fool you – the Seahawks physically dominated their West Coast rivals from start to finish, shutting down their run game for the second consecutive week and running all over their vaunted rush defense. This is the same team that struggled to beat Carolina on the road. It will be interesting to see if those were just week one jitters or if the gap between their home and road performances really is that large – we won't have a chance to find out, though, until week four, as this week, they're already favored by 18 points over the visiting Jacksonville Jaguars. If they win the NFC West – and as big as this game was, it'll be matched by the December rematch in San Francisco – I don't see anyone beating them in January in Seattle.
- New Orleans took control of the NFC South with a last-second come from behind victory in Tampa Bay. That makes two games in a row the Buccaneers have lost on a last-second field goal, first caused by the Lavonte David late hit, and now caused by settling for a 47-yard field goal attempt that would have allowed the Saints to win with a touchdown even if the made it – which they didn't. Of course that's going to give Drew Brees the time needed to drive the length of the field for the game-winning field goal, even on an off-day in which he threw two picks. The score shouldn't have been as close as it was, either – the Saints had a first-and-goal at the 1-yard line at the end of the second half. Their results? Incomplete pass, Ingram stuffed, Thomas stuffed, field goal taken off the board by penalty, Ingram stuffed. Just an idea – when you have one of the three sure-fire first-ballot Hall of Fame quarterbacks in the league, and a hodgepodge of ineffective running backs, throwing, even from the one, might be more successful. You can have that one for free.
- Green Bay sure bounced back from their loss against San Francisco, didn't they? Aaron Rodgers tied the franchise record for passing yards on the way to 38-20 victory over Washington. It's kind of nice that Rodgers holds the record now – for a franchise that has started Rodgers, Favre, and Starr, seeing "Matt Flynn" as the single-game record holder felt a little off. They also got off the 44-game streak of not having a 100 yard rusher, as James Starks, who came in after Eddie Lacy suffered a concussion, fumbled for 132 yards. This isn't because Starks has suddenly become good, mind you – he was around for most of that streak, remember. This is more because Washington is falling apart at the seams. This is the second week in a row they've been blown out of the water in the first half – which may not have been as big of a deal if RGIII was right, which he clearly isn't. I don't think it's time to go to Kirk Cousins yet, though, despite my documented man-crush. RGIII needs to play through the rust and get over the mental hurdles that come from a devastating injury like this one. Not everyone is Adrian Peterson, able to go back to full speed immediately after a devastating injury – heck, Adrian Peterson wasn't at full speed until about halfway through the season last year, either. It does look, though, like the injury that ended Washington's 2012 season has put a damper on their 2013, as well.

After going 11-2 and 6-2 in the SEC, that included a victory over eventual national champion Alabama and a win in the Cotton Bowl, Kevin Sumlin told FOX 26 Sports Texas A&M is upgrading his contract, as well as the contracts of his assistant coaches.
"That announcement is coming," Sumlin said. "Our guys are comfortable with it. I'm comfortable with it.
"We want to make sure our assistants are taken care of, based on what the market is out there."
Sumlin is a finalist for the Paul Bear Bryant Coach of the Year Award, which is announced Thursday night in Houston.
The event benefits the American Heart Association.
The San Antonio Express-News first reported last week that Aggies athletics director Eric Hyman was in the process of meeting with Sumlin concerning his contract and the contracts for his assistant coaches.
Sumlin is thrilled that Hyman and the school are being proactive about contracts for the football staff.
"It means a lot," Sumlin said. "The commitment to me and our coaching staff is a big deal.
"It's one that reflects our commitment as a coaching staff to Texas A&M and also their commitment to us."
Sumlin originally signed a five-year contract with Texas A&M worth about $2 million a year.

Pharmaceutical Bill Passes House Without DTC Restrictions
A drug safety bill that originally contained provisions mandating a new-drug advertising moratorium and an advertising preapproval requirement was approved by the House of Representatives without these restrictions. H.R. 2900, the Food and Drug Administration Amendments Act of 2007, introduced by House Commerce Chairman John Dingell, D-Mich., was amended by Reps. Edolphus Towns, D-N.Y., and Steve Buyer, R-Ind., to remove provisions that would have given the FDA authority to impose a three-year moratorium on prescription drug advertising, required preapproval of both individual DTC ads and comprehensive marketing plans and added additional and unwieldy mandatory warning language to ads and packaging. The Senate passed a similar bill earlier this year. The differences in the two bills must be resolved by the two legislative bodies before the president signs it into law. The AAF and the advertising community strongly supported the amended version as offered by Reps. Towns and Buyer.

FTC/HHS Obesity Workshop Set for Next Week
On July 18, 2007, the Federal Trade Commission and the Department of Health and Human Services will hold a follow-up meeting to their 2005 forum on marketing, self-regulation and childhood obesity. Representatives from the food, media and advertising industries will report on the progress they have made and new initiatives addressing food marketing to children. AAF President & CEO Wally Snyder will represent the advertising community at the meeting.

Obesity Task Force Report Postponed
A final report from the media and obesity task force led by Sen. Sam Brownback, R-Kan., Sen. Tom Harkin, D-Iowa, and Federal Communications Commissioners Kevin Martin and Michael Copps has been postponed until September, so that information presented at next week's Federal Communications Commission and Department of Health and Human Services workshop may be considered and included in the task force report. The task force has held regular meetings aimed at examining the impact of media on childhood obesity and to consider solutions to the problem. House Telecommunications and the Internet Subcommittee Chairman Ed Markey, D-Mass., responded to news of the postponement by calling on the FCC to initiate formal rule making into children's food marketing on television immediately.

Rep. Markey Calls on Food Companies to Modify Advertising Plans
Following Kellogg's announcement last month that it will change the ways it advertises to children, House Telecommunications and the Internet Subcommittee Chairman Ed Markey, D-Mass., wrote letters to McDonald's, Coca-Cola, General Mills, Kraft Foods and PepsiCo asking them to implement the same marketing limitations as Kellogg's. The company will no longer advertise food products to children under 12 unless they meet nutritional standards and will modify its Web site to include more healthy lifestyle information. Markey has expressed interest in limiting food advertising during Federal Communications Commission mandated educational programming aimed at children, as well as other government-imposed restrictions on food marketing to children.

Fairness Doctrine Ban Bill Introduced
A proposed bill amendment introduced by Rep. Mike Pence, R-Ind., would prohibit the Federal Communications Commission from reinstating the Fairness Doctrine, which required broadcasters to provide opposing arguments when airing controversial issues. The amendment was introduced after some members of Congress, including Sen. Diane Feinstein, D-Calif., Sen. Dick Durbin, D-Ill., and House Energy and Commerce Committee Chairman John Dingell, D-Mich., suggested that the doctrine be reinstated to ensure fairness in broadcasting.

i find this to be napalm death's most consistent release, as the tracklist pulls songs from many different napalm albums, giving a sampler of napalm death's different stages – while managing to be superior to the orginals in both performance and production. the sounds here are not just grindcore, but a melding of pop group/lee perry styled dub play, peter brotzmann's free jazz fury, and big black's nihilism.
this album HAS to be in your collection.

AusGamers The Secret World Developer Video Interview and Transcript
Post by Steve Farrelly @ 03:11pm 02/09/11 | Comments
At this year's GamesCom, AusGamers caught up with The Secret World Creative Director, Ragnar Tørnquist, to talk to him about how they're shaking up the MMO world. Read on (or watch) for what he had to say...
Watch the full video interview embedded above or click here to check it out in HD
Can we talk about where all of that stemmed from; maybe what you learnt from Age of Conan -- moving into this. And what you hope to achieve with this kind of breaking the mold.
Ragnar Tørnquist: I think a lot of... I mean there are a lot of level-based and class-based games out there already and I think us as a team felt like it's time to do something fresh and interesting -- a real game set in the modern-day real world.
Now in the modern day, we're not born into roles; we're not born into being blacksmiths or shepherds -- your fate is not decided the moment you get born; your fate is decided by choices you make and that's something we wanted to bring into the modern setting. We want players to be able to make choices as they go along and most have to do that during character customisation.
So I think there aren't many MMOs that have tried to do this in a meaningful way. Of course there are games like Guild Wars and the first Star Wars online game that have sort of broken the mold a little bit, but of games recently, they most hold the class/level template and I think that players are ready for something new.
Age of Conan obviously was a class-based/level-based game also and that's still running and it's doing very well and I think with all that, there's no point for us to bring yet another class-based game to the table. So let's do something new.
And the core team as players, we also like the skill-based system and we like to be able to create our own characters. Take maybe a little of a dual-pistol powers and mix that with some elementalism magic and create something that we feel makes us more unique and special in the world It's all about self-expression and self-identity.
And the same thing goes for clothing in the game. We don't have stats on clothing -- you can wear anything you want. If you want to wear a t-shirt and jeans, you can do that; or if you want to wear a leather coats and leather pants and a mask, you can do that too -- you can be who you want to be and you play any way you want to play.
AusGamers: So in the demo I saw yesterday, there was XP still coming up on the screen. And in a game that doesn't have any levelling, you still need a sense of progression for the player. So can you run us through that and how that works?
Ragnar: That's been really one of the key things for us. In a game without levels, you really need to feel "How do you progress as a character?" Well XP is one of them, of course you're still getting XP. You're killing things; you're doing missions; you're experiencing the world and you're sort of exploring it and you have to gain something from that. So XP is used to buy powers.
The more XP you gain, the more powers you can buy; and the more powers you can buy, the more flexible your character can be and more different types of encounters you can handle. There might be a certain dungeon when having some strong elementalism powers might help a lot more than having your shotgun powers for example.
So this progression in terms of... there's a lot of horizontal progression in terms of the depth of your character and the flexibility of your character. But in addition to that, you really also want to feel stronger right? You want to be able to handle more difficult contents, so of course gear plays a big part in that. Loot and crafting; being able to get items that increase your damage output; that increase your health; increases everything you do. So there is a progression in that sense as well.
Better weapons, better chakras as we call them -- it's like magical, sort of occult implants -- all of that is part of character progression. In addition to that, you get rewards as you play the game obviously. So certain clothing will show that that guy has done that difficult mission because he has that cool outfit that's only available if you ever did that mission.
So you sort of become the walking achievement track. And talking achievements, you'll also be able to complete a lot of achievements in the game, which will also be reflected in titles and rewards -- things like that.
And last but not least: inside your secret society, you can rise in rank. You start on the ground floor -- you don't know a lot about the inner workings of your secret society -- but then as you gain rank -- you do more missions for your society; you play PvP -- you'll be able to rise in your secret society and that's something you can show off as well and have access to more unique gear and uniforms.
AusGamers: Ok, now my fellow Australian Joel [Bylos], who works on the game with you guys [Lead Content Director]: in the demo yesterday, he mentioned in the PvE that you might come into areas that another faction has already been to and you'll be sort of interacting or undoing something that they've already done -- in terms of missions. Can you run us through how each of the factions dovetail?
Ragnar: The factions, of course, is a huge part of the game and we want players to be as invested in their secret society as possible, before they even start playing the game. And that choice at the beginning of the game is final. When you've chosen to be a Templar, Illuminati or Dragon, that's it -- you're that for life.
So there's a lot of unique content for the factions as well, including the story mission which brings you through the entire game and then these ranking missions, which we're showing here at GamesCom live actually today. They're interesting things, because first off, there are missions that will allow you to gain rank within your secret society and to do that of course, you have to interact with the other factions. Because the Templars will want to send someone to infiltrate the Illuminati to get their secrets; they want to sabotage some of their installations; they want to hack into their computers.
Players will be getting missions to do this and they'll be able to then do missions from a different point of view depending on what faction they have. Here at GamesCom we're showing this interesting encounter in a car park, where players go in and have different goals depending on which faction they represent. So the Illuminati for example, are going in to meet a contact and they see a Templars player who is green and they wonder "What the hell are the Templars doing here?".
Of course, if you are a Templars player, you will be that character passing that screen, because you'll be on a similar mission to accomplish something different in this car park. So there's a really interesting interplay there between the factions that, it's not just about PvP.
We're also showing our battlefields and warzones here at the GamesCom, and that's sort of more the large-scale PvP aspect of it, but the conflict -- the secret war between the factions -- it's also embedded into the missions and into the PvE content.
AusGamers: Now let's talk about servers, and Australia. I'm not really sure how much you can answer, but APAC [Asia Pacific] is obviously a pretty big area. We're just wondering if you guys will be supporting Oceanic servers? What's the process there going forward? Especially because you have an Australian on the team and he must know how painful it is for us.
Ragnar: Yeah exactly, we have an Australian on the team and he's got to fight hard for this. I mean I definitely would like to... we definitely want to support our Australian gamers. I can't answer a lot about like server locations and stuff like that, but it's really important for us that this game is a global game, and that access to the game is as convenient for everybody as possible.
And you're right, it's a huge region that really is crying out for a lot more local servers. I mean there are a lot of gamers in both Australia and New Zealand of course; Singapore and Philippines and those areas as well that really want to play on servers that are a bit closer to home than North America or Europe. So, that's something that we're definitely going to be talking about and looking more into.
AusGamers: Right, now we'll leave it there, but thank you so much. The game does look great and it really is fantastic seeing somebody actually trying to totally break the MMO mold, so congratulations.
Ragnar: Thank you very much, it was a pleasure.
AusGamers: Thank you, cheers.

Park Slope Food Co-op to vote tomorrow on issue of boycotting food from Israel
Despite mounting criticism — even coming from Mayor Michael Bloomberg himself — the Park Slope Food Co-op is still planning to hold a controversial vote tomorrow regarding a proposal to stop selling food items imported from Israel.
Tomorrow's vote is actually to decide whether co-op members will hold a later referendum on the proposed boycott.
The boycott was proposed by supporters of Boycott,
Divestment and Sanctions, or BDS, a movement that supports a global
boycott of Israeli products in solidarity with Palestinians.
At the food co-op, items that would be affected under the ban include paprika, a
make-your-own seltzer machine, vegan marshmallows, olive pesto and
The vote will be held at 7 p.m. at Brooklyn Technical High School, which can seat 3,000 people in its auditorium. Turnout at tomorrow's meeting is expected to be so large that the co-op had to move to a bigger location from the synagogue where its meetings are traditionally held.
If there is enough support tomorrow, a referendum will be mailed out to the co-op's 16,000 members.
Bloomberg yesterday blasted the co-op's decision to hold the vote.
"These are businesses that should be run as businesses," Bloomberg said, speaking at the St. Patrick's Parade in Bay Ride, according to the New York Post. "I certainly am adamantly opposed to boycotting Israeli products … Israel is a very important ally of America. We shouldn't forget that."
And Public Advocate Bill de Blasio, usually one of the most liberal voices in the city, also came out strongly yesterday against the vote, calling it "inflammatory."
"Plain and simple — it's wrong," said de Blasio, who said he was urging his fellow Brooklynites to reject tomorrow's vote. ""Our city, in particular, has always had a special relationship with
Israel. Those of us who have visited Israel, as my family and I did
very recently, feel the moral bond and the need for her doing everything
possible to protect her security."
movement—nationally and internationally—is a destructive force that must
be stopped. It undermines America's relationship with our steadfast
partner in the fight against terrorism and our strongest ally in the
Middle East," he continued.
Liz Roberts, a supporter of banning the Israeli products, said people handing out leaflets have been cursed at, spit at and threatened, and that one was even hit last week.
She and Barbara Mazor of More Hummus Please, a group that opposes the ban, both said they expect more than 1,000 people to attend the meeting.

When it comes to all things beauty, who better to tell-all than Cov-alum Gwen Flamberg? When it comes to taking advice for where to go and what to buy at the beauty counter, there's very few people whose word we'll take for it… Glamberg (as we like to call her!) is one. Get out your pen and paper, people; there will be a quiz after!
For skincare: "I'm loving skincare by La Prairie, SK-II and Guerlain right now. I create a big cocktail every morning and evening. I swear by Tracie Martyn body care. It's amazing stuff. Facialists Sonya Dakar and Tracie Martyn taught me so much and I'm indebted to Dr. David Colbert who eradicated my basal cell skin cancer sans surgery and introduced me to his magical Triad facial."
For hair: "For hair, that cleansing conditioner, Wen, is the best for my sensitive scalp. And I love Fekkai's Technician's Mask: it gives my long hair shine and body—a hard combo to come by. More than products are the pros I've been fortunate to work with in my role and now call friends and support staff members! I couldn't live without my haircutter and colourist, the genius Harry Josh. I love Philip B products: the Drop Dead Straightening Balm is awesome, and I love Living Proof's Straight. Couture Colour Pequi Oil is pretty rad too for smoothing split ends."
For fragrance: "I love scent so much. I usually create my own by mixing a few favourites. For years I blended Kiehl's Musk with Kai, which is gardenia based. Right now I'm loving By Kilian's Don't Be Shy and Back to Black and also Dior Patchouli Imperial and Oud Ispahan. Then I touch up throughout the day with Angel. Sounds crazy but people are always asking me what I'm wearing and I think that's because it smells exotic, and they've never smelled it before."
For nails: "I used to always be a dark nail girl, but I've been loving an opaque nude! For manis and pedis, I love Jin Soon Choi's Natural Hand & Foot Spas: they're relaxing and clean, they have the best polish colours (CHANEL Vendetta - My all-time fave!) and they serve this super delish citrus tea. I've also just gotten into tenoverten: it's pretty convenient, but still a little slice of chic.
For travel: "I'm a fan of hot weather; I love visiting Buzios, Brazil and try to get there every year. When I travel I always bring my favourite sunscreen: Skinceuticals tinted fluid and SunBum SPF 50 clear spray. Also I won't get on a plane without an SK-II mask; it's the only way to look human when you arrive."
As for Flamberg's five ultimate beauty secrets?
"Wear sunscreen. It really will make a difference later on."
"Sleep with a humidifier: it gives you dewy skin and helps your breathing to boot!"
"Use a cloth mask like SK-II's once a week; you won't see your pores anymore."
"Stop washing your hair more than once a week."
"Ditch powder and use blotting papers to refresh skin."
"SMILE MORE… Oops! That's 6!"
- As told to The Coveteur by US Weekly's Beauty Director, Gwen Flamberg

He was the first Cardinal running back to gain a 1000 yards in over a decade. He was the first Cardinal to have back to back 1000 yard seasons on over 2 decades. Then in a span of three games he went from featured back to after thought. The fair weather fans out here have already turned their backs on him. What the hell happened?
Was it a numbers thing, well, he's averaging 3.5 ypc, not great, but his replacements are averaging 3.1 ypc, so it's not just numbers. It could be a running style "thing." The perception, out here, is he dances too much before hitting the whole. Coach Wisenhunt likes big backs the hit the whole quick, in the case of the Cardinals it's kind of necessary their run blocking isn't as good as there pass blocking. He hasn't gotten any long runs, but, he has done his normal consistent 3 to 4 yards a rush.
Four weeks ago Edges agent Drew Rosenheadline approached the Cardinals and told them (paraphrasing) that Edge wasn't happy with the offenses Pass first approach. The problem with that is the Cardinals are having their best season in over 30 years and a big reason for that is the Offense. He got 7 carries that week and a key fumble, The AM radio heads out here reported that some of the higher ups in the organization thought he was not running as hard as he can,
He missed a practice that next week and they benched him. After that week his agent, Drew Rosenannoying, asked the Cardinals for his release, they said "no" they need him for depth. That was two weeks ago, since then he's had 3 carries in two games, that he's played in.
He's is still thought of as a good teammate. His replacement Tim Hightower gave the first game ball, that he got as a pro, to Edge as a show of respect for Edge working with him and teaching him how to be a pro.
It would be cool to see him in a colt's uniform next year; I just can't see it happening, not with Dom still a Colt. You need youth a running back and Dom and Edge are both considered old by running back standards.
That's the scoop from the desert
