Our street food culture, to put it mildly, is an embarrassment.
It barely exists.
And the rules that govern it are archaic.
Take the example of Michael Sohocki, owner of Restaurant Gwendolyn on East Pecan Street.
At one point last year, Sohocki had the idea to sell chicken sandwiches and sausage links from a push-cart on Houston Street.
But the city wouldn't consider his proposal because the current statute limits push-cart fare to hot dogs and raspas.
Instead, he took the idea to the Pearl's farmers market. There he could sell made-to-order meals, but he was required to obtain a $30 permit each time he set up his portable kitchen.
He decided to just put a fork in it.
"It's a punishing degree of regulations, and it's also incredibly expensive," Sohocki said.
On the farmers market front, a proposed rule change would allow vendors who want to cook food on the spot to obtain a $45 permit good for an entire month per location.
By the city's calculations, that would lower the annual cost of serving hot food at a farmers market from about $1,600 to $550.
Even better, market managers could obtain the permits in bulk, so that vendors don't have to deal with the bureaucracy and can just concentrate on making food.
The City Council is expected to vote on the changes in a few weeks.
I'm glad to hear it, but it's not enough.
On so many levels, our city is being jarred from a kind of large-scale complacency.
At the city government level, San Antonio is just now receiving the memos on issues like the environment and our own health — for which Mayor Julián Castro deserves a great deal of credit.
It may not seem like much, but part of that evolution is street food. And it's decades overdue.
Remember the Chili Queens? They were before my time, but I've read about them.
They sold chili con carne and other Tex-Mex specialties in San Antonio's most popular public spaces before the health department shut them down in the 1940s for sanitary reasons.
Since early 2012, the city has been experimenting with food trucks downtown. The program limits their operation to designated spots on certain days of the week — and they are not allowed near the River Walk at night.
It's regulation after regulation.
"There's got to be an easier way of doing this," Sohocki said. "My primary job should be making good food for people who give a damn where their food comes from."
District 1 Councilman Diego Bernal said the rules for food trucks need to be revisited. "I'm interested in that and so are a lot of other people."
These are all steps in the right direction. But this thing needs to be blown wide open while maintaining sanitary standards.
Our city knows street food — Fiesta offers plenty of it.
Creating a street food environment beyond the big party would offer more affordable meal options (once it shifts from hip to affordable) in the downtown area. And it could become an attraction onto itself.
Expanding the push-cart items beyond hot dogs and snow cones would be an excellent start.
Since taking office in 2009, Castro has steered this city hard in a more progressive direction. Among his priorities is the creation of a more vibrant downtown.
In my opinion, you can't have one without a vibrant street food culture.

"If you could give one piece of advice to a large group of people, what would it be?"
"Listen to your inner voice."
"You're a scientist. Isn't 'inner voice' a spiritual term?"
"Bullshit! You'll hear scientists talking about following their inner voice as much as you'd hear a musician or a priest."
"So how do you know which of your thoughts are your true inner voice?"
"All of them are! The question is— how much weight do you give them? How much authority do you give your own thoughts? Are you taking them seriously? Or are you sitting in front of the damn tube letting other people tell you what to think?"
She didn't keep waiting. And that was not her fault. She silently warned you. She desperately hoped for an inkling of truth, of feeling, of anything to signify her importance. That she could be loved, or held in a way that proved that what they had was a reality for him also. He left with nothing more than a suitcase, a brush of his lips to hers and a simple "see you".
He was not to return for at least six months. She had no promise. She had nothing. She sobbed, she gathered herself, and she left the airport with her own suitcase; a suitcase full of unspoken words, new resolutions of strength, and promises to herself that she would no longer wait. She moved on.
losing and keeping.
Looking back, I see that we had only a small pocket of time to explore our affair. That was the beauty of it. Once we were available to immerse ourselves fully, I realised that we loved each other by repeatedly losing each other. It was a desperate feeling, losing someone you long for. Once I knew I could keep you this time, the urgency was gone, the desperation disappeared, and I saw you. I saw that you weren't as exciting as you once were.
Unfortunately for you, the desperation continues, as you have lost me once again.
"If you could give one piece of advice to a large group of people, what would it be?"
"Stay together."
"Is there someone specific that you wish you'd stayed together with?"
"Yes. My wife. But that was nature's fault, not mine. And also my son."
"Who's fault was that?"
"What happened?"
"Issues surrounding his mother, things like that. But honestly, he's getting to the age now, that I really think it's time he reached out."
"Why don't you reach out?"
"I can't find him."

Augusten Burroughs, This Is How
(via justabadass)
My parents always tell me
to never fall in love with someone else
who has baggage.
The problem with that is it disproves this fact:
you have been places and you
are going places, separately from and with me.
I want to lie down in bed with you
and have you lay out all of your suitcases.
I want you to show me the dress you
wore when you were seven and that neighborhood
girl, Sara, kissed you on the nose.
I want you to show me the pair of shoes
you wore when we first met, with your
shoe laces so dirty from walking
around this city and finding pieces
of yourself in the alleyways.
Please lay out that gown you wore
those three days when you were in the hospital
with scars on your skin because
it was easier to hate yourself than to love.
Please let me hold that bracelet
you threw into the Ocean from the first
boy that broke your heart and ended up
kissing another girl that same night
and taking her home, fucking her
so hard that the Milky Way wasn't
a good enough metaphor
to articulate how he felt coming
I will dress you up in my
eighteen year old skin where B.
and I sat instead of danced during
prom, crying over certain things
that we could not keep inside for
much longer. I will let you wear
that sweater I wore the first night
I kissed you underneath a street lamp,
as the snow was falling into the light,
I was falling into you, wholeheartedly.
I will let you wear that shirt you slipped
over your self after that first night we spent
together, in bed, learning how to love someone
properly, in a more physical sense than ever before.
And then I want to pack all of these bags
and stuff them back into our lungs,
so that our histories will always leak out of
our breath. We will not forget
how heavy we felt once and how light we feel now,
in comparison. I want to know your history, simply,
even the darkest corners, so maybe me being there
will make them lighter and make both of us
appreciate the dim light of the Moon
because it was there, even if we did not always
notice it.

One chapter.
Last night I poured a page of my past out to you. I wrote it down, word for word, tear by tear, scar by scar. It was just one page, but it was the opening chapter, a prologue of sorts, one of the most important parts to read before engaging in the body. If not for that page, the rest of this story is a lot harder to make sense of, and I knew, eventually, you would want to read the whole book.
You quietly listened, hanging on to each word, interjecting only with a touch or a sigh. It was your way of turning the pages, not forcefully or rushed, but with a slow motion, drawing out the truth and letting each sentence soak into your mind.
When I finished the chapter we stopped and we breathed. We breathed hard and heavy and our words were so much richer through the knowledge we now shared. Our hug had never been tighter, our words had never meant more. You read me, you listened to me, and I allowed you to.
You cried with me, you held me close, then you stroked my skin to sleep.
Artist's statement:
"The world seems to me increasingly incomprehensible, and there are times when I feel there isn't anything that I know for certain. For me, making photographs (or painting, or whatever) is necessary to translate the unintelligible reality of being into a more coherent form. Or at least to illustrate my best guesses. There is vastly more nothing in the universe than something, and I try to create images that recognize the grace by which anything at all exists."
—Ryan Hancock
Two words.
A poignant reminder from an unlikely source. Someone I would never take relationship or life advice from, provided a flippant comment that has resonated with me since, and has alerted me to the over-analytical state of frenzy that people (me) put ourselves through when it comes to deciding a whether a person deserves a 'yes' or 'no' in regards to the fatal choice of embarking into a relationship.
All it takes is two words to unravel, rewind, and undo the mess of interwoven lifestyle decisions.
"It's over."
Yes, there is a lot more pain, explaining, and healing needed that stems as a consequence of those words, but those two words are the catalyst, and they are all that need be uttered to snap the ties which you so carefully knotted.
So what is that we're so scared of? Feelings. Just feelings. Protecting our own and the ones of whom we love or care about. Perhaps that is the single most important thing, but feelings can't hurt you. It's up to you how strong or weak they are, and how long they stay.
Don't be scared. Jump in head-first. Soak up the loveliness and be prepared to say (or hear) two words if it all goes askew.

For some, a raucous audience, a lonely stage, and a spotlight zeroing in on a microphone is a pretty terrifying image. Public speaking is often cited as the world's most common phobia, beating out trips to the dentist, spiders, and even death on the list of biggest fears [1].
Ladies and Gentlemen, (gulp) — Why it Matters
Research suggests the fear of public speaking can stem from poor self-image [2]. Studies show people who think negatively of themselves tend to experience more anxiety when reciting a speech, believing that they will appear more anxious— and perhaps vulnerable— to others [3]. It seems combining anxiety with the fear that everyone's watching makes the eye twitch, sweaty brow, and jittering hands-reaction that much worse!
Typically, people with normally low levels of anxiety get nervous before speaking but begin to relax once they get started. People with normally high levels of anxiety, however, are also anxious when they start speaking, but their apprehension only gets worse as the speech goes on. As the anxiety intensifies, the body experiences a surge in stress hormones, which encourages a fight or flight reaction. Watch out— we've reached the point of no return!
Take a Few Deep Breaths — The Answer/Debate
Although public speaking usually poses no physical danger (well, except for the occasional freak accident), this social phobia can have some very real consequences. For some people, it causes the palms begin to sweat, knees to buckle, and stomachs to run amok with butterflies. Those with an extreme fear might suffer from actual panic attacks, although it is unclear if the attack is the cause or the consequence of phobia [4].
But though the fear or speaking might be crippling, there are ways to overcome the phobia. A stiff drink might take the edge off for some, although research suggests it could actually exacerbate anxiety for more people than it helps [5].
Not up for drowning anxiety with booze? There are lots of safer, sober ways to overcome that fear, too [6]. Cognitive therapy techniques before a speech— like deep breathing exercises, concentrating on the material, and plenty of practice to build confidence— have also been found to effectively calm nerves. And while a few cocktails before a big speech might seem like a good way to relax, it's probably best to save the alcohol consumption for the celebration afterwards!

Reebok International Ltd. "will post an earnings-per-share increase of about 10% to 15% for the fourth quarter," according to this morning's WALL STREET JOURNAL. Jennifer Black Groves, an analyst at Black & Co., estimates Reebok revenue "climbed 19% to $718.9M from $602.6M" and that domestic orders for Reeboks "climbed 27% to $338.4M from $258.2M in the year ago fourth quarter" -- but "part of the reason for the substantial gain was a lackluster 1993." Groves "estimates that fourth-quarter sales of Reebok brand shoes in the U.S. are up only 3% from the fourth quarter of 1992" (Joseph Periera, WALL STREET JOURNAL, 1/6).

Using Fort Toulouse / Jackson Park as its historical backdrop, Alabama Frontier Days focus on demonstrating what life was like in the frontier South during the early years of European and American exploration and settlement, 1700-1820. The public can experience this living history as many frontier trades and crafts will be demonstrated by living history specialists and craftsmen in costumes of the period. From 1700-1763, the Alabama River Valley was part of French Colonial Louisiana. It was also claimed by the English, and both of these powers competed for the allegiance of the Indians. The English eventually won the struggle for control of eastern North America, and as a result we now speak English as our primary language. From 1763 until 1790, the English, Spanish and Native Americans controlled the frontier South. But with the War of 1812 and the Creek War of 1813-1814, the British and the Indians challenged our young country for control. The end of the War of 1812, and the Treaty of Fort Jackson in August of 1814, opened up 20 million acres of native lands to American settlers and Alabama was born. Admission charged. For further information, call 334-567-3002.

Best Red Beans and Rice
- i
- idreamoffood Jul 23, 2007 02:57 PM
Where is the best red beans and rice in new orleans?
I had coops a couple of weeks ago and that was pretty gopd
where else?
re: marchperson
I was on this kick for a while trying out all the Red Beans and Rice I could find. The other night I found them. Ignatius on Magazine. Its a tiny little corner restaurant Uptown. They were creamy, delicious and the smoked sausage was nice and spicy. I would definitely recommend checking them out. Also, they were reasonably priced.
re: funkjester
When I saw this thread, Buster Holmes was the first thing that came to my mind. Still have their cookbook- God, I miss that place! The red beans there really were the stuff of legend- and the last time I ate them, I think it cost about $0.85- a little more if you wanted a piece of chicken or a pork chop...
re: Clarkafella
i heard they also had garlic-rubbed fried chicken, a little in the vein of mosca's. never been b ut sounds like a legend.
re: Clarkafella
My husband still talks about Buster Holmes. Says it was great stuff, $1.00 with a bottle of Dixie.
re: JazzyB
when did buster's close?
it was on burgundy st right n the quarter?
and does anyone have a link or something to an online review of it for vicarious memory sake?
re: Clarkafella
Hi, I have been looking for the Baster Holmes recipe for years, Would you be so kind as to share it from your cook book? Please Please Please
Miss Libby
I always liked the ones at Dunbar's, but I haven't been to their new location. Although there is nothing like some homemade red beans, I find that random cafeterias often do it better than most restaurants. Also worth mentioning is Popeye's, god knows what they put in there (I am guessing a ton of MSG) but I find their red beans irresistable.
re: Chris Martel
A second for Dunbar's, which are good-n-smoky tasting. A random sampling every couple of weeks proves that they're turning out a consistent product, too.
RE: Popeye's beans: that incomparable flavor is smoked pork fat. Small serving is 340 calories, 19 grams of fat. For comparison, a tablespoon of butter has 11 grams of fat.
re: Hungry Celeste
Popeyes' red beans: No wonder they taste good...but I don't like their rice. It must be minute rice or some other non-LA variety.
re: cajungirl
I agree about the rice: it's clearly converted rice (par-boiled), where every grain remains plump & separate. I think it is dry and hard; I much prefer long-grain or medium-grain rice, cooked with enough water so that a scoop of it retains its rounded shape. That silly converted rice shows up all over the place--so many restaurants use it for gumbo, etc. Why?
re: Hungry Celeste
Interesting observation. My wife really likes "sticky rice," while I, maybe because I am from MS, like the grains separate. When I do rice at home, I always use olive oil, while she does not, and cooks it (regardless of the original type) into a "soup," that then sticks to everything. I guess that it is all about where one grows up, and the cuisine that they are most accoustomed to. However, when dining with chopsticks, I go like her type better - far less work!
For red beans n' rice, her recipe cannot be beaten, but then it is not commercially available, in PHX, or in NOLA. That's why I did not comment, until now.
re: Hungry Celeste
YES...Dunbar's. With a big piece of greasy fried chicken.
i recently went to see kermit ruffins at vaughn's in bywater. kermit cooked a pot of beans that were the best i have ever eaten. from what i understand he cooks them most thursday night that he plays.
re: Turn Two
Have not tried the Gumbo Shop, though I've walked past it many times. Gotta' add it to the next trip and do the red beans.
re: chocolatetartguy
I'll probably get flack for this...but I love Copeland's red beans with grilled andouille sausage. They are so smokey and creamy.
re: TulaneJeff
Those are Popeye's beans at a higher pricing point. Diversified Seasonings (Al's comissary arm) still provides the flavoring for Popeye's products, and it is also the source of Copeland's flavors/seasoning blends as well.
re: Hungry Celeste
Does anyone know why Popeye's beans don't seem to have any actual beans in them? Don't get me wrong, I love the stuff, but it seems like there isn't anything in there but the creamy gloop- nothing resembling a red bean at all...
re: Clarkafella
That's creole cream-style beans. Lots of people like 'em that way.
re: Hungry Celeste
Actually, I spoke too soon- went out to Popeye's this morning and got a large red beans and a biscuit (breakfast of champions!)- there at the bottom of the styrofoam container were maybe 8-10 beans. They were soft, but still had their bean shape intact. Oh well, not the first time I've been wrong!
re: chocolatetartguy
Bon Ton's mustard vinaigrette is a delight. I'll have to try their red beans and report back, but I'm sure they are as good as ever. The place has become quite a hot lunch spot in the CBD!
My favorite (and it is a hole-in-the-wall) was always FrostStop behind Tulane. They only have it on Mondays, but you can't beat the deal or the quality.
Having lived away for a few years now, I still dream about their red beans and rice with hot sausage. I've based my own recipe off of theirs.

How to Avoid Injury
To keep your joints safe during exercise, Hootman offers these tips:
- Don't be a weekend warrior. Spread exercise over the week to avoid overloading your joints.
- Avoid extreme positions, like deep knee bends, which can harm your joints.
- Exercise your back and abdomen to strengthen your core, which is important for good body mechanics.
Proper alignment is key for keeping bones healthy as well, Bell says. "You'll want to maintain good posture doing whatever activity you choose," she says. She also warns against doing exercises that involve rounding the back, such as crunches, which can cause spinal fractures in people with weak bones.
Consider working with a personal trainer to make sure you're doing exercises correctly, since doing them incorrectly is a leading cause of injury.
Aches: Normal or Not?
It's normal to have some muscle aches and soreness after exercise. This is especially true if you're doing something new.
Regular muscle soreness should go away after a few days. Each time you change your exercise routine, which you should do regularly, or do a new exercise, the muscle soreness may return for a few days.
However, sharp muscle or joint pain, or severe swelling around a joint after workouts, could be a sign that you're going too hard or doing something wrong. Stop immediately if something hurts a lot. Check in with your doctor to see what happened. Later, when you're feeling ready, you might try switching to a less-intense exercise.
Soreness that lasts more than a few days is also a concern; you may be doing an exercise incorrectly or overloading your joints.
A physical therapist or trainer can help recommend activities that are safe and adapt exercises as needed to work with your body.

ABC News Radio's @cohanjosh and Mashable's @PetersMeg discuss the recent changes to Facebook profiles.
ABC News' Josh Cohan reports:
If Facebook's recent changes have left you angry and perplexed, brace yourself for some more unsettling news.
When Facebook fully rolls out its latest overhaul in the coming weeks, anonymous "defriending" – or the simple act of removing someone from your Facebook friends list without their knowledge – will become a thing of the past. Sort of.
On Thursday, Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg introduced a new feature called timeline, which aims to provide users with a visual display of their lives, as documented on the social media site.
"[A]ll your stories, all your apps, a new way to express who you are," Zuckerberg said at the company's annual developers conference in San Francisco.
But the timeline will also let you see older versions of your friends list and a button that not-so-subtly indicates whether you're still "friends," BuzzFeedreported Friday.
"There is a way where you can go in to a certain point in time and basically, if you look at your friends tab, maybe from three years ago, and you see the 'Add Friend' button from someone in that list, that will basically tell you that they have defriended you since you became their friend," said Meghan Peters, community manager at Mashable.
(EVANSTON, Ill) — Steve Jobs, who brought the world the iPhone, the iPad, the iPod and so much more, has left a rich history, both of technological innovations and of thoughts about what people want from them. Agate Publishing of Evanston, Ill., has assembled a 160-page volume of Jobs' quotations, culled from interviews, public appearances and writings after he co-founded Apple Inc. The book, edited by George Beahm, is due out in November. Its full title: I, Steve: Steve Jobs In His Own Words.
(NEW YORK) — Finally, you can share the status of your gut bacteria with your friends. In exchange for $2,100 and a bit of "poop," My.Microbes will sequence your gut microbiome, the genetic blueprints for the throng of organisms lining your digestive tract.
"Re: Taliban [spokesperson] on #Kabul attack: the outcome is inevitable. Question is how much longer will terrorist[s] put innocent Afghans in harm's way?" said the Twitter feed @ISAFmedia, a usually subdued stream of NATO announcements.
(SAN FRANCISCO) — For the second time in as many years, it's been reported that an Apple employee misplaced a prototype of its newest iPhone in a San Francisco-area bar. In Cava 22, a Mexican restaurant in San Francisco's Mission District, CNET says, "the errant iPhone" made off without its owner in late July, setting off a scramble by Apple security to recover it. CNET cites "a source familiar with the investigation."
(SPARTANBURG, S.C.) — A South Carolina woman's desire to purchase an Apple iPad at a discount came back to bite her Monday when she forked over $180 dollars to strangers for an "iPad" that turned out to be a painted block of wood.
(CUPERTINO, Calif.) — In the wake of Steve Jobs' resignation as Apple CEO last week, the billionaire's biological father has told media outlets that he regrets giving up his son for adoption some fifty years ago.
Abdulfattah John Jandali, a Syrian immigrant who now works as a vice-president at a casino in a Reno, Nev., was quoted by the New York Post as saying he didn't know until just a few years ago that the baby he and his ex-wife, Joanne Simpson, gave up grew to be Apple's CEO. Jandali has emailed his son a few times, he said, but did not call Jobs for fear that he would think Jandali was after his fortune.
I come out of my room and they've got their guns pointed at me and stuff…I was like, 'Oh my God, I'm going to die.

When your ho is having her period and your salt about not being able to fuck, so you send her outside naked, on all fours to get the paper with her mouth. And while shes outside you beat off, and when she comes in you take the paper and bust in her mouth. Then while shes panting and slobbering you pat her head and say good dog Clifford.
Most guys hate when its that time of month for their ho, but Marquis always looks forward to it cause he knows what that means: Clifford Time!!

A clifford is someone you can rely on. Someone you can trust with anything. Cliffords are usually super tall and handsome. You would be totally lucky if you had a Clifford as your best friend. Alot of girls tend to like Cliffords so you would be even luckier to date one. Most Clifford's are also very smart. Clifford's are also very sporty and good at almost everything they do. They can't see it but they are awesome. You will have to let your Clifford know he is awesome or he will never know. They are one of a kind and very original. You would be lucky to even know one.
Girl 1: "Woah did you see that cute guy, I heard he's on the basketball, soccer & Hockey team! I would love to date him."
Girl 2: "Yeah, me too! His name is Clifford!"
Girl 2: "Yeah, me too! His name is Clifford!"

Cliffords are "THE" most attractive people on the planet. They are ambitious, intelligent, risktaker, prettyboy, romantic, passionate. Has a great sense of humor with a great personality. The ideal person that you would spend the rest of your life with because you can never find anyone better.
Girl 1: who's that sexy beast over there?
Girl 2: Oh! Judging be his great looks it must be a clifford.

Clifford is a little boy who can't eat sunflower seeds. He has canines that stick out like the Clifford Big Red dog. He's pretty ghetto but thats what gets all the ladies. He's studious but gets into fights, thats why he always has a scar on top of his head. He's so hardcore he battles spiders on his free time.
That Clifford guy is such a gentleman but I get a boner when I see his battle scars.

@mrsclarke thanks for responding back and yea Dr.jimerson work is great! When were u thinking about getting ur bbl done?
Haven't had it yet, but I'm planning on using him. But if you put his name in the search bar other girls will come up who have used him, and his profile has reviews and pics of befores and afters. I haven't seen anyone disappointed in his work yet. They just say its hard to get in touch with the office. I was sold by his website, it gives a lot of before and afters with the cc amount, fat transfers and implants.

Deep in the Jungle: A Documentary (dir. Errol Morris)
The French Connection (dir. William Friedkin) - 1971
A good barometer for correct usage of the term "gritty", The French Connection plays it rough and mean. Gene Hackman's Doyle is a good cop, maybe one of the best, but there's no doubt he's a racist, callous man who is too obsessed with busting the bad guys to care about or give much credence to whatever innocents may get hurt in the crossfire. Roy Scheider's Buddy is much more stable than his partner, but his loyalty ensures he's right there along side Doyle, despite the other cops' extreme dislike of him.
An incredibly taut and exciting ride for a film that is primarily men chasing each other around the streets of New York, often unarmed, to little or no soundtrack. The infamous train/car chase is one for the books, and the opening interrogation scene perfectly sets up our duo's dynamic while also being pretty hilarious and baffling at the same.
"Ever pick your feet in Poughkeepsie?" "Did you ever pick your feet in Poughkeepsie?" "Were you ever in Poughkeepsie?" "How about that time you were picking your feet in Poughkeepsie?" "Now I'm gonna bust your ass for those three bags, then I'm gonna nail you for pickin' your feet in Poughkeepsie."
Between Hackman's performance, Friedkin's direction, and Ernest Tidyman's screenplay, it's plain to see why this is an essential film. All of them were awarded Oscars for their respective work, and rightly so. Despite this, it's the gut-punch ending that cements this as one of my new favorite films. Perhaps that's a premature call after only one viewing, and maybe it's due to the fact that they namedrop Poughkeepsie (my hometown) five or six times, but damnit, I'm sticking by it.
Night of the Comet(dir. Thom Eberhardt) [1984]
I'm gonna remake Night of the Comet and I'm gonna do it fucking right because ultimately this movie falls under the category: Shit Coulda Been So Fly, Damn.
Night of the Comet is a mediocre but not entirely worthless 80s flick about a comet that reduces virtually the entire population of Earth to dust while leaving a few survivors and slightly more zombies. The comet is a pretty big fucking deal, with the entirety of L.A. filling the streets to view it. Apparently they all just got out of a screening of The Thing From Another World! and took the last line very much to heart.
Then everyone is FUCKED except for Reggie, a sarcastic valley girl who fucking rules at Tempest, her equally snarky and slightly wackier sister Samantha, and Hector, who I'm pretty sure suffers from a personality disorder. There's no other explanation I can think of as to why he doesn't have one. Lobotomy?
In fact, I have no fucking idea why the Hector character exists other than to save Reggie and Sam when they get in a pickle. Even then it doesn't seem warranted, because the film establishes early on that Reggie and Sam's father used to take them both to his air base and train them in the use of semi-automatics. But they never fucking use them! Except for a pretty lame shootout in the mall that boils down to a game of whack-a-mole where no one is playing. Someone pops out from cover, another goes into cover. This goes on for way too long and it's boring as hell. In an earlier montage Reggie and Sam go shopping, taking full advantage of the major post-apocalypse discount while jamming to Cyndi Lauper's "Girls Just Wanna Have Fun". If they just kept the song rolling during the shootout it would have been exponentially cooler, but not any less boring.
And that's it for the gunplay more or less. I feel like a jilted ex in that this film promises so much and delivers on none of it. You put semi-automatics in the hands of two teens and pit them against a zombie horde, only they barely use their guns and there are no fucking zombies.Our duo encounters maybe six or seven fully transformed zombies total, and three of those crop up in dream sequences.
The zombies aren't the main baddies, however. A thinktank anticipates the apocalypse and retreats to an underground bunker. Despite being the smartest minds left on the planet, they leave the vents open and the virus contaminates them anyway. How the hell does a virus contaminate an entire planet without actually coming into contact with it anyhow?
In order to create a serum to cure the virus they need blood, and I mean a metric fuckton of blood. Forget every other movie you've ever seen where they take small samples to create an antigen. These sadistic fucks need all they blood they can get, and they are sadistic. In order to farm as much blood as possible they put survivors into a vegetative state with the only purpose of producing as much of that sweet gooey bug juice as possible. My favorite scene involves two doctors mentioning they won't get as much blood from the kids they just brought to the base before exclaiming "I love working with kids!" These doctors are seriously fucking sadistic if they can remain this bright and giggly while discussing harvesting 300 CCs of blood from braindead children daily.
One of the scientists complains the entire time about bringing survivors back to the base. At first we're led to believe she's just a super asshole who doesn't want to risk saving anyone topside, but it's revealed in a quick hamfisted scene that she's actually a good guy who just thinks it's fucked up what those crazy sadists are giggling about. Don't judge me for hating her intially. That blood farming bit is revealed way later.
The problem is the quick 180 she pulls comes without any sort of apparent emotional arc and is placed directly after a scene where she appears to euthanize a young teen. Her moment of redemption is cluing Hector in on the misdoings of the thinktank and not actually euthanizing that teen, but instead injecting her with a knockout agent. Flat delivery and poor writing kill the mood though. No character boners here, just flaccid…something.
That is the best example of character development I can think of, and it's pretty bad. The development, not the example. C'mon, I made a penis analogy! Or at least I tried to. But everyone is so fucking flat here. If you replaced Hector with a moving cardboard cutout I would be praising this film right now. Not really, but it would have been way more interesting.
Reggie and Sam redeem this if only slightly. I giggled at their snark and their ruthless dispatching of those sadists. (They hook them up to a constant stream of nitrous oxide. A little heavy for two teens, but creative!) Also, their dialogue is the only dialogue in the film reflective of their personalities, and while it isn't great I would laud it as Oscar-worthy over the shit Hector dribbles out during the movie.
I really hate Hector.
Night of the Comet has an incredibly promising premise and two fairly likable fun characters lost among a crowd of cardboard cutouts who, much like our young heroes, have virtually nothing to do in the film. If you want to check it out it's on Netflix Instant, but just wait a few years and I promise I'll deliver something much, much better.
Black Dynamite comin' atcha!

An underground gay publication from the 1980s finally gets its due.
An underground gay publication from the 1980s finally gets its due.
When Luis Venegas, the Madrid-based editor and publisher of Fanzine 137, was mapping out the magazine's new issue — a reprisal of the Ladies & Gentlemen special-themed edition he published in June 2008 — he stumbled across the phrase "Who dares, wins" in a story in the International Herald Tribune. "It's a cliché," says the 30-year-old Venegas, "but I knew I had the theme for the issue. As I say in my editor's letter, I find few things more irresistible than the combination of daring and talent that brings beauty into the world."

Youhana was the only Christian on the Pakistan team
Youhana, who now calls himself Mohammed Yousuf and was the only Christian in the team, says his wife also converted with him about three months ago.
But he says they did not make their decision public for family reasons.
Reports in Pakistan say his parents are furious while Yousuf says he wants the rest of his family to convert too.
"I don't want to give Yousuf my name after what he has done," his mother was quoted as saying by the Daily Times newspaper.
"We came to know about his decision when he offered Friday Prayers at a local mosque. It was a shock," his mother was reported as saying.
He moved out of his parents' house when they came to know about his decision but has since moved back.
A Pakistani television channel showed him offering prayers along with other members of the Pakistan cricket team including skipper Inzamam ul Haq.
Life 'ruined'
Mohammed Yousuf's mother says she had been worried about her son's behaviour for a long time.
She blamed the brother of a former Pakistan cricket player, Saeed Anwar, for "ruining my son's life," according to the Daily Times.
Saeed Anwar and his brother have become Muslim preachers who preach from the platform of Tablighi Jamaat - Pakistan's largest non-political religious grouping.
Yousuf confirmed that he was a regular at the preaching sessions held by the Tablighi Jamaat.
But he told journalists that he had converted of his own free will and there was no pressure on him to do so.
"I cannot tell you what a great feeling it is," he told the BBC.
Officials in the Pakistan cricket board say members of the Tablighi Jamaat have been visiting the board's offices and training camps regularly over the last several years.Most of the team members have become overtly religious over the last few years, the official said.

Thanx for sharing Maha

"Escape, escape" she whispered as she ran her nails along her thighs, leaving long, red marks all the way across them. That was all she wanted. All she longed for. She wanted to escape it all. Everything. All the pain she'd been through. Everything here reminded her of her past. She wanted to escape it all. "Escape" she whispered again, as if saying the word would make it come true. As if that one word was some sort of witches spell, one of those she had always read about in books. She had always dreamed of having magic powers, and now would be the time to use them. But she didn't. She never had magic powers, and of course she never would. Tears fell from her eyes, all the way down onto the long red marks on her thighs. She would never be able to escape her past.

these devices with multipliers, it should be possible to realize several milliwatts of power above 1 THz.
While numerous fundamental sources, such as Gunn,2 Impact Ionization Avalanche Transit Time (IMPATT) diodes, or amplified phase-locked oscillators, can be found below 200 GHz, the most practical technique for generating coherent energy above 200 GHz is through multiplication. This is the primary technique for providing LO power to heterodyne receivers for radio astronomy or high-resolution spectroscopy. While in the past it was common to use whiskered Schottky diodes as multipliers, planar diodes have become readily available and offer suitable performance. Their output power levels can be limited by the maximum amount of input power that they can handle or by even the existence of a suitable source of RF that can be multiplied efficiently. Multipliers have been used successfully above 1 THz by chaining together a series to obtain the desired frequency. Power levels from various sources available from Virginia Diodes, a leading producer of the device to the community, is shown in Figure 3-3.

Challenging The NDAA
Chris Hedges on why he and others are challenging the National Defense Authorization Act in court:
Totalitarian systems always begin by rewriting the law. They make legal what was once illegal. Crimes become patriotic acts. The defense of freedom and truth becomes a crime. Foreign and domestic subjugation merges into the same brutal mechanism. Citizens are colonized. And it is always done in the name of national security. We obey the new laws as we obeyed the old laws, as if there was no difference. And we spend our energy and our lives appealing to a dead system.
Returning To San Juan
RETURNING TO SAN JUAN The island of Puerto Rico is much more beautiful than one remembered, with its lush green vegetation and surrounding oceans of aquamarine and deep azure blue.
From the Huffington Post:
Interviews with more than a dozen party officials and activists reveal that despite widespread and growing support for marriage equality among Americans, the issue is still viewed as politically sensitive in the top ranks of the Democratic Party. While many high-profile figures have publicly advocated for including strong language in the platform, the Obama campaign and the allied Democratic National Committee are searching for ways to split the difference: showing support for equality but stopping short of a full-fledged endorsement.
Split the difference? Obama and top Democrats want to "split the difference" when it comes to my marriage to my husband? Yet, they expect my vote in November. I think I'll split the difference and vote Green Party, where there is unqualified support for my marriage.
[P]rison as a deterrent does not work. If it did, America would be the safest country on earth.
