The cast of Godzilla, currently in the middle of filming the monster movie, stopped by EW's Comic-Con suite over the weekend to talk with Sara Vilkomerson about their roles in the 2014 film. Director Gareth Edwards, Elizabeth Olsen, Aaron Taylor-Johnson, and Breaking Bad's Bryan Cranston also talked about their the enthusiasm of the Comic-con fans, and Cranston revealed his post-Breaking Bad plans. Check out the interview below.

'Oldboy' poster: Signed, sealed and delivered by Josh Brolin
The logo for Josh Brolin's new film Oldboy is written in the actor's own handwriting, inspired by his character in the film, who is kidnapped and held hostage for 20 years and spends years writing letters to his daughter.
He is suddenly released, which inspires him to find out the reason for his imprisonment — and results in the discovery of a tangled web of conspiracy.
Oldboy also stars Elizabeth Olsen and Sharlto Copley. Directed by Spike Lee, the film will be released October 25.
Casting Net: Bryan Cranston may star in 'Godzilla'; Plus Matt Smith joins Ryan Gosling pic, Melissa McCarthy, Colin Firth, Nicole Kidman, and more
• The Godzilla reboot may not have a final script yet, but that doesn't mean that they aren't continuing to move forward on other fronts. Bryan Cranston, Elizabeth Olsen, and Aaron Taylor-Johnson are reportedly in talks for the film, though no final decisions will be made till the script is set. Cranston has been popping up in smaller film roles recently, including Argo, while he shoots Breaking Bad, but it's likely that he'll start taking on more leading roles after this final season. [Variety]
• Doctor Who fans, get excited: Matt Smith has been confirmed to star in Ryan Gosling's directorial debut How to Catch a Monster. The film is being described as a fantasy, and follows a single mother and her teenage son into a dark underworld. Christina Hendricks (who co-starred with Gosling in Drive) and Eva Mendes (Gosling's love interest in the upcoming The Place Beyond the Pines) have been confirmed to star in the film as well.

Sundance 2013: Dakota Fanning and Elizabeth Olsen are 'Very Good Girls' -- VIDEO
At a Sundance Film Festival remarkable for its strong female perspective, Very Good Girls might be the most earnest and accessible of those films. It's the coming-of-age story of two Brooklyn teenagers (Dakota Fanning and Elizabeth Olsen) who are determined to lose their virginity before the summer after their senior year of high school ends. They both fall for the same boy, but there are no hijinks; this is no distaff version of American Pie. "What I wanted more than anything was it to be a fly on the wall experience," says writer-director Naomi Foner, who makes her directorial debut after a long career as a successful screenwriter (Running on Empty). "We're there with these girls as these things happen. I wanted nothing more than for women of all ages to walk into it and to feel 'Oh, yeah I remember that,' or 'I see that,' or 'I can do that.' And have a model for themselves of some sort. And I didn't want to do it in way that's silly."
If it had been sillier or crass, Foner might have had an easier time getting it made. She initially wrote the script 20 years ago, and nearly had a go-picture a few years back, but the financier flinched because the two actresses Foner had recruited weren't big enough: Kristen Stewart and Jennifer Lawrence.

BAFTA names five to Rising Star Award shortlist
British Academy Film and Television Awards says 23-year-old British actress Juno Temple is one of five young stars shortlisted for the BAFTA Rising Star award.
Other actors in the running include Swedish actress Alicia Vikander, British-born Andrea Riseborough, Elizabeth Olsen of the United States, and India's Suraj Sharma. The list was announced on Monday.
Temple says she is giddy about the nomination, especially as the winner will be chosen by the public.
Recently seen in William Friedkin's Killer Joe, she appears in three movies at Sundance Film Festival and will also star with Angelina Jolie in Robert Stromberg's Maleficent.
The BAFTA Film awards take place on Feb. 10 in London.
Q&A: James Ransone talks Spike Lee's 'Oldboy' remake, Josh Brolin's transformation
With his deep, dark eyes, thin face, and history of working with Spike Lee, James Ransone has all the makings of a perfect fit for Lee's remake of South Korean revenge classic Oldboy, currently filming in New Orleans with Josh Brolin as a man going after his captors after being imprisoned for more than a decade. But Ransone, who replaced Nate Parker in the part of a doctor working with co-lead Elizabeth Olsen's character, goes totally against type. He plays a good guy, different from other well-known twitchy parts he taken on, such as drunken, delinquent Ziggy on HBO's The Wire, or a robber in Lee's 2006 thriller Inside Man.
EW spoke to Ransone by phone in Los Angeles after Hurricane Sandy hit New York City, where he lives. The actor, who said he found out about his part in the movie "super last minute," shot down those criticizing Lee even remaking Park Chan-wook's beloved 2003 thriller, and talked about he and Lee getting along "because we're both antagonistic," witnessing Brolin's drastic weight gain and weight loss for the part – 35 pounds gained in one week, then 19 pounds dropped – and being a (our opinion: refreshingly down-to-earth) middle-class actor in Hollywood.

Spike Lee's 'Oldboy' remake set for release October 2013
Spike Lee's English language remake of South Korean director Park Chan-wook's 2003 classic revenge thriller Oldboy is set for wide release on Oct. 11, 2013, announced FilmDistrict, the independent film company distributing the movie, on Friday.
'How I Met Your Mother' star Josh Radnor revisits his college years -- and his college campus -- in new film 'Liberal Arts'
When actor Josh Radnor visited his alma mater in spring 2010, he was struck with a realization that hits many 30-somethings returning to their colleges – that the current students walking paths and studying in the same halls he had about 15 years prior looked so young.
"It was just this startling moment when I realized that I was nearly twice as old as the students there," Radnor said of visiting Kenyon College to screen his directorial debut, happythankyoumoreplease. "It was really strange because my memories of college are so vivid. I felt like I was just there yesterday, and suddenly I was looking at these students saying, 'We weren't this young when we were here in school.'"
The How I Met Your Mother star then took that sentiment and turned it into an audience favorite film at this year's Sundance Film Festival. Liberal Arts, Radnor's second directorial endeavor, premiered at the Utah festival in January and began rolling out in theaters this weekend. (You can watch the trailer here.)
Liberal Arts, which Radnor also wrote and stars in, was shot at Kenyon College and in its surrounding village of Gambier, Ohio. Making the film gave Radnor the opportunity to both revisit his alma mater for the summer 2011 shoot (where the film crew stayed in student housing and ate in the dining hall, and current students filled several roles in the production and as extras) and also to delve into themes of nostalgia and change and what happens next after four years of a liberal arts education.

The fairest of them all: Which actresses should get a shot at playing fairy tale heroine?
Kristen Stewart's not the only would-be fairy tale heroine out there with a steely gaze and chutzpah to spare.
Stewart swept aside her pouty Twilight image with a hefty sword as a rebel in Snow White and the Huntsman, but there may be room for other actresses to leap into the franchise, even if Stewart does return for a Huntsman sequel.
Still, sweeping aside a Hollywood Reporter story claiming Stewart was being dropped from any sequels, Universal Co-Chairman Donna Langley said in a statement on Wednesday, "We are extremely proud of Snow White and the Huntsman and we're currently exploring all options to continue the franchise. Any reports that Kristen Stewart has been dropped are false."
Even with Stewart in the mix, a sequel could include other asskicking female roles in a Snow White-centric Huntsman follow-up or another potential spinoff revolving around costar Chris Hemsworth as the mega-blonde, strapping Huntsman. Maybe he'll take on Sleeping Beauty next? Regardless, there are a number of young actresses just waiting to pick up the sword/bow-and-arrow/other archaic weapon of choice.
Here are a few we think could take a mighty swing: READ FULL STORY
'Peace, Love & Misunderstanding': What's so funny? -- EXCLUSIVE VIDEO

Jane Fonda's latest offering Peace, Love & Misunderstanding finds the Oscar-winning '60s icon going back to her roots as Grace, a matriarch who never quite moved past her hippie dippy heyday. Grace's high-strung daughter (Catherine Keener) returns home with her kids (Elizabeth Olsen, Nat Wolff) in tow, setting the stage for a buzz-killing culture clash.
In this exclusive behind-the scenes featurette, Fonda and her on-screen family talk about the project alongside director Bruce Beresford (Driving Miss Daisy) and co-stars Chace Crawford and Jeffrey Dean Morgan. Oh yeah, and then there's that naked dude…. Check it out below. READ FULL STORY

2 tablespoons
olive oil
onion, diced
1 clove
garlic, minced
1 (14.5 ounce) can
Italian-style diced tomatoes, undrained
1 tablespoon
dried basil leaves
3/4 teaspoon
white sugar
1/4 teaspoon
dried oregano
1/4 teaspoon
1/8 teaspoon
ground black pepper
1/2 cup
heavy cream
1 tablespoon
So delicious! I pureed mine in the blender as I prefer smooth creamy sauces, and I added three garlic cloves as I love garlic. I used only half of the onion, and substituted 3/4 cup of skim milk instead of the heavy cream to cut back on calories. The addition of Italian seasoning added an extra zip and zing. Served over fresh cheese ravioli and with a side green salad, it was a fantastic and simple meal. If you double the recipe, you can freeze the remainder of sauce and have on hand for guests or cold nights when you crave comforting pasta dishes. A terrific recipe that I will make again.
Ok, I have made this twice now. I still don't love it. It is sweet in a disgusting way, and the texture is weird because of the chunky tomatoes and all the dried basil. Maybe I will spring for fresh next time! I am going to make it again, and try other reviews' suggestions to put it through the blender. I added probably 1.5 T of flour, which really helped thicken it and make it a great consistency, not runny. I like the flavor but must try it with these modifications, and without the sugar...
1187 Ratings
Very good! A winner in my book. I substituted fat-free half and half for the cream,cut the butter a little and doubled the garlic. I also used my hand blender and smoothed it a little, so that it wasn't super chunky but still had texture. Hubby loved it. Served it over organic spinach fetuccini with spicy italian sausage sliced on top. Beautiful meal!
This sauce has a great flavor to it--sweet but not cloying. I must concur with other reviewers: the consistency is a bit too thin. I suspect this could be thickened without sacrificing too much flavor by adding flour according to taste. Flour is usually an ingredient in cream sauces, but is absent from this particular recipe. Spices and tomatoes may need to be increased if flour is added, but the sauce should become satisfactorily viscous. I suggest adding flour in small quantities, being cautious not to use too much.
This was excellent and easy. I didn't have Italian style tomatoes so I used petite diced and added 1 tsp of Italian seasonings. I only used 1/2 of an onion, otherwise made to recipe. Delicious, served over mini penne pasta and shredded parmesan. Wish I had grilled chicken to go over top. One complaint: this really only made enough for 3 servings, no way 5 unless this was for a side dish. Thank you.
This has become my staple sauce since I first discovered it on this site. I have made it a countless number of times now, both as per recipe for a small scale, and slightly altered for a much larger scale. Regardless, I always use more garlic than called for and always run the whole thing through the blender to smooth the sauce. This is absolutely delicious and always receives rave reviews. Quick, easy, and foolproof - what more could you ask for?
Incredibly good and so easy to make! I doubled the sauce and used half and half instead of cream. The only thing I added to thicken it was a 6 oz. can of tomato paste. I will make this again and again. With recipes like this, there's no need to buy jarred sauces!
sauteed onions, mushrooms, garlic and red pepper, then added tomatoes, brought to a boil..... Then I pureed the whole thing in blender. My family has yet to know off these added, rarely eaten (by them) veggies........I replaced fat free half-n-half for heavy whipping cream (as I do most things, too much fat & calories for us) and added fresh grated Parmaggiano cheese! The sugar is important (altho I use Splenda) to help take adge off the tomato taste. Was yummy and very creamy!

text: As MGM never allowed to record any bloopers to maintain the glamorous image of their stars, we will never get to see all those funny moments when an actor messed up his/her line or when something funny happened to them. However, there are a few unscripted moments in some of Norma Shearer's films. In one scene in "Their Own Desire" she almost slipped and threatened to fall back into the swimming pool after Robert Montgomery was playing with her toes. In "Riptide" she is startled when the gramophone shuts close, in "A Free Soul" the donkey chases and knocks down a fellow actor and in "Marie Antoinette" the boy who plays her son wants to put down his chair a bit too enthusiastically, which makes him fall.

Where to find Pozole (posole) in San Diego?
Any place to find this wonderful dish in San Diego? Preferably as close to the northern New Mexico version as possible? I miss it and I simply cannot make it taste the same when I try to prepare it at home.
re: Island
I've been there its ok - not worth the drive to almost San Ysidro and its white pozole only.
The best pozole Ive had in San Diego was at the Cenaduria of Candyland in City Heights though I believe they have new owners.
re: Josh
Although I live really near El Comal I had never been so, in search of pozole, we went last night. Overall we really liked the place. Great prices, huge (too huge) portions. Too cold for the patio last night but I am sure we will go back for the live music on the weekends when it is warmer. My husband loved his fish tacos. We shared a gordita "exotica" which was wonderful--steak, nopales, and mushrooms. I, of course, had the pozole. I had the red. I liked it and all the condiments that came with it were great. But, it had nothing to do (except the hominy) with the pozole I have had in New Mexico. That pozole was green, so, that may be the big difference. The pozole I was looking for had lots of herbs in it (sorrel?? among others) and definitely smoked chilies. The hominy was somehow much softer and flavorful that the stuff that you get from the cans at the supermakret. It was also a lot spicier. I will definitely go back to El Comal, but not for the pozole. Still searching.

re: wrldtrvl
I think most of the places that have been recommended on this thread serve Mexican posole, not New Mexican. You're right they're similar but not the same. I don't know of any place in SD serving New Mexico style posole. There used to be a place out in Santee but they went out of business several years ago.
Menuderia Don Vincente on Highland a few blocks south of Northgate Market makes a very good posole. Grande or chico, the appropriate garnishes and tortillas.
Northgate Market
606 N Escondido Blvd, Escondido, CA 92025
Second El Comal! Gringo versions: Old Town Mexican Cafe and World Famous in PB are still pretty tasty in a pinch.
El Borrego on El Cajon Blvd makes a nice green pozole. I'm craving it now!

re: berliz
Someone needs to invent seafood pozole -- I'd be so all over that.
re: bizzwriter
I've seen shrimp pozole in Mexico
re: DiningDiva
Hmmm....I'll have to give a try at making my own!
re: bizzwriter
There are 3 basic posoles in Mexico - red, white and green. The shirmp posoles I've seen appear to be a riff on white posole. I think if you can hunt down a recipe for white posole and make a few adjustments you'd be on the right track. Good luck :-)
re: DiningDiva
Thanks for the tip DD -- I'm on it!
re: DiningDiva
Do you know a place in SD where green is available? I order it without the pork, which gets some stares, but whatever.
I've had white and red at El Comal, and love them both.
El Comal
262 3rd Ave, Chula Vista, CA 91910
re: Josh
Josh, I haven't really looked for it in SD. You might ask at Super Cocina if they ever do it. Also try the spots that specialize in food from Guerrero. Thursday is market day in much of Guerrero and there is a posole verde that is served in many markets. It's pretty different from what we're used to as posole; call it a kissing cousin. I've only had it a few times and each time it had pork in it. The "green" in it is from sawtooth, which is a grass. Sorrel is the common substitution. It's pretty easy to make. I've got a recipe I can shoot over too you if you feel ambitious and want to try making it.

Elected in 1985
"For technical leadership in the design, construction, and highly successful operation of pioneering commercial nuclear electric generating plants."
SOL BURSTEIN retired from the Wisconsin Electric Power Company in 1987, capping a highly productive and successful career in power engineering; the design, construction, and operation of nuclear-powered electricity-generating plants; and electric utility management. Sol was the public face of nuclear power for many years; he spent numerous hours testifying before state, federal regulatory, and congressional committees about nuclear power: its promise, its risks, and keeping it safe. Not content to rest on his laurels in his later years, he undertook consulting work—largely pro bono—on nuclear power safety and radioactive waste management. Congestive heart failure led to his death at the age of 79 in Falls Church, Virginia, on January 28, 2002.
Sol was born in Chelsea, Massachusetts, in a tenement building, at 69 4th Street Rear. With $100 that he'd borrowed from his brother Joe, Sol went to Northeastern University on the co-op plan and graduated with a degree in mechanical engineering in 1944. His co-op work, design, and sea trials of Baltimore-class heavy cruisers at Bethlehem Steel's Fore River Shipyard in Quincy, Massachusetts, became his first job after college. At the shipyard, Sol witnessed a terrible accident: a 360-ton-capacity crane moved a 300-ton load without incident; the second load of only 15 tons snapped a cable and killed

ALBANY, N.Y. --- When the budget is approved it will include state funding for a new Bills lease.
State Assembly Majority Leader Joe Morelle says the state's portion of the funding for the 10-year, $271 million lease agreement, will be a part of New York's new budget.
No additional clawbacks were added by the state legislature to get the funding back from the Bills should the team break the agreement.
The lease includes $130 million in renovations to Ralph Wilson Stadium, which are scheduled to begin this year.
State and Erie County taxpayers will cover more than $226 million over the 10-year period.
The Bills can opt out of the deal after seven years.

ANIMATION: Hydrangea Colors: It's All in the Soil
The Hydrangea macrophylla (big-leafed hydrangea) plant is the only known plant that can 'detect' the pH level in surrounding soil!
One of the world's most popular ornamental flowers, it conceals a bouquet of biological and biochemical surprises. The iconic "snowball" shaped hydrangea blooms are a common staple of backyard gardens.
Hydrangea colors ultimately depend on the availability of aluminum ions(Al3+) within the soil.

Every moment is just fabulous! Thank you for your hospitality.
Beautiful room and hosting was so welcoming! Fabulous breakfasts with luxurious local ingredients! Very happy, thank you.
My first B&B experience and it has set a very high bar for many others to come! The rooms are in a wonderful statae – very clean and very well maintained. Thanks Jane & Keith
We spent last weekend visiting the lovely Margaret River region to celebrate our combined birthdays and, having searched for suitable accommodation online, came across The Rosewood Guesthouse, and what a magnificent find it was!
The accommodation was lovely, very warm, comfortable and cosy, which was great as the weather was pretty chilly especially at night. The breakfasts are to die for, just one word of advice, don't book a celebratory lunch after you have eaten one of Jane and Keith's breakfasts. All this was rounded off by the most consummate of hosts whose hospitality was second to none!! We have been raving on about Rosewood to friends we have met this past week and will certainly return again when next visiting Margaret River.
For us having a downstairs room overlooking the garden was a definite plus as we were able to watch the birds flitting about, drinking and bathing in the water features. The veranda at the front was delightful to sit on at the end of the day's outing and from which to watch the parrots.
We had a delightful stay at Rosewood, much thanks to Jane & Keith who gave us great hospitality and great service – 6 stars!
Felt very well looked after, loved the gardens, birds & Breakfast. Thank you!
Everything. everything is lovely; room; ambience; breakfast(yum!) and most excellent hosts. Deserves it's top rating for B&B!
Enjoyed the hospitality and new acquaintances. Great top -off to our visit to Australia.
Our stay in Margaret River was the best short holiday that we have ever had due in no small part to Jane & Keith at The Rosewood Guesthouse. We thoroughly enjoyed their hospitality in their charming home and have already recommended it to others. Many thanks….
A wonderful spot, excellent hosts and excellent ++ breakfasts. Thank you for the memorable trip to Margaret River Jane & Keith.
Thank you so much for making our stay a very sweet one with such a warm welcome, gorgeous little touches – just what I needed! A place we will definitely be recommending and hopefully will return to.
We had lovely views of the gardens and birds and the room was nice and quiet. We especially loved waking to the smell of coffee and breakfast in the morning. Thanks so much and we hope to see you again.
Thank you for a great & relaxing get-away. Your assistance and thoughtfulness was greatly appreciated. Food was amazing and great rooms. It was wonderful!

I have to agree, it is going to be very interesting to see how the iPad sells the certain industry markets such as the medical field. With the correct applications it would seem to fit the bill as a perfect small, lightweight device that could be carried with a doctor while they run rounds, a fleet mechanic while they check vehicles, a person checking inventory... For entities trying to switch to more technology and increased efficiency it might be just the product. Kind of like an electronic successor to a clipboard.

About the Global Forum
From 2-4 December 2013, hundreds of leaders and decision-makers in media organisations, civil society actors, governments, UN agencies, business and human rights advocates will gather at Imperial Queens Park hotel in Bangkok, Thailand to evaluate the trends in gender inequalities in the media and formulate collective and creative solutions to reduce gender disparities. The Global Forum on Media and Gender will be hosted by the Kingdom of Thailand National Commission for UNESCO and the Thammasat University.
Objectives of the Forum
One of the key outputs of this forum will be to set up a Global Alliance on Media and Gender (GAMG). The purpose of the GAMG is for the media and all other stakeholder groups to stand together for real and sustainable change.
UNESCO and partners will put the spotlight on the need to reduce gender inequalities in media during the Global Forum on Gender and Media being held in Bangkok, Thailand from 2 to 3 December, 2013. The Forum will be an important follow-up to one of the critical areas of concern of the Beijing Declaration and Platform for Action, Women and the Media Diagnosis, and its strategic objectives.
Gender equality and women's empowerment (GEwe) issues will perhaps be the development priority of the next decade or two. This topic will take marked prominence in the Post 2015 MDGs formulation. According to the report of the thematic consultation, Addressing Inequalities - Post 2015 Development Agenda, "Gender-based discrimination and the denial of the rights of women and girls, remains the single most widespread driver of inequalities in today's world."
In the area of media and gender, statistics indicate worrying trends in women's representation in media content, staffing and management.
In taking note of these statistics, UNESCO and partners organized this global forum as part of broader and continuing efforts to empower women and reducing gender inequalities, given the potential of both elements to advance economic and social development. The urgency of this event is reflected not just in the timing but also in the issues to be discussed and the calibre of international stakeholders being brought together to build a coalition to push for action to reduce gender inequities in the media.
On-site and remote participation
During this global event, thousands of stakeholders, participating on-site and from remote locations, will lend their voices, intellectual capacity, collective creativity and ingenuity to the development of comprehensive linking-up of efforts to address the following issues:
- Gender-sensitive policies and strategies in media (particularly PSBs, government-controlled media, private, and community radios – including those online)
- Gender mainstreaming in journalism education
- Safety of women journalists online and offline
- Media and information literacy and gender
- Reporting on issues affecting women including gender-based violence, women in conflict and post-conflict situations
- Media, legal and regulatory frameworks and national gender polices/strategies
- Facilitate citizens' media dialogue on gender equality
- FOE and regional and global trends: the gender dimensions

Demoralization: cause (someone) to lose confidence or hope; dispirit.
The Memphis Grizzlies earned home court advantage on the last day of the regular season when they defeated the Orlando Magic for their 11th straight home win. They were set to open their first round playoff series versus an inexperienced L.A. Clippers squad, only a year removed from their historic and unexpected first round series win against San Antonio. And wouldn't you know it? They came out firing on all cylinders. The Grizzlies had nailed 11 three point shots in this game - two more than their season high - and had completely demoralized their opponent; or so they thought. The Grizz took a 58-39 lead into halftime while the crowd waved their towels and wore the arena-provided t-shirts with prie and glory. The third quarter was more of the same as Memphis built a 21 point lead heading into the final period, feeding off of the intense energy their crowd brought to the Fed Ex Forum. The core entering the final period was 85-64, Grizzlies. They even built up a 95-71 lead with just over nine minutes left in Game 1. 24 point lead. Evaporated. Dismantled. The Clippers put together the largest comeback in NBA history to thwart the home team and crowd and steal home court. Demoralized.
Heading into game two, one has to wonder if this epic game damaged the home team's psyche. Can a team really recover from something like this? The Clippers played hard for a grand total of 9 minutes. The Grizzlies thoroughly outplayed, outshot, outdefensed the Clippers for 39 minutes and still came up short. The Memphis players feel as though all they need to do is equal what they did for the first 39 minutes and all will take care of itself.
"There's no magic to it," Gasol said. "We just have to do what we did the first three quarters. If they pressure us...just penetrate and run down the clock and play our game."
That sounds a little like someone is hurting. Everyone came out with the stat that night that there were three teams in NBA history who suffered a loss like this and still advanced to the NBA Finals - giving those Grizzlies enthusiasts a glimmer of hope, like they had God on their side, but in this case it's another NBA team's history. Which means nothing whatsoever.

Law's Relations
A Relational Theory of Self, Autonomy, and Law
moreAutonomy is one of the core concepts of legal and political thought, yet also one of the least understood. The prevailing theory of liberal individualism characterizes autonomy as independence, yet from a social perspective, this conception is glaringly inadequate. In this brilliantly innovative work, Jennifer Nedelsky claims that we must rethink our notion of autonomy, rejecting the usual vocabulary of control, boundaries, and individual rights. If we understand that we are fundamentally in relation to others, she argues, we will recognize that we become autonomous with others--with parents, teachers, employers, and the state. We should not therefore regard autonomy as merely a conceptual tool for assigning rights, but as a capacity that can be fostered or undermined throughout one's life through the relationships and the societal structures we inhabit. The political project thus should not only be to protect the individual from the state and keep the state out, but to use law to construct relations with the state that enhance autonomy. Law's Relations includes many concrete legal applications of her theory of relational autonomy, offering new insights into the debates over due process, judicial review, violence against women, and private versus public law less

I currently have 10.0 and am getting ~ 15/1 so my question is what are the official speeds for the levels?for example, is 20.0 still at 20/1.5 - and if so, how does one justify $10 more for what is advertised as "double 10.0 for $10"if 20.0 is more than 20/1.5 - would that require a docis 3 modem?
I currently have the 20/1.5 plan and always get ~20/1.5. I'm thinking of just going back to 10.0 and staying there. I don't think you would require a DOCSIS3.0 modem until you get to 30.0 and higher tiers.My guess is Insight is slowly migrating to the "standard" TWC internet tiers.
20.0 does not require a docsis 3.0 modem, been using it on a Moto SB5121 for quite some time. You do need a 3.0 modem for 30.0 and higher and from what I have heard they (insight) will not let you use your own modem for 30.0+
As of right now they won't, even if you have a modem that's on TWC's approved list. I've been fighting with them for a while on this and have even filed a complaint with the FCC. The only thing I've gotten is some guy at Insight calling me to keep telling me they don't allow it yet. Figures.

105 - Naming the Nameless: the Pseudo-Dionysius
Neoplatonism is fused with Christianity by the pseudonymus author known as Dionysius. Peter looks at his Divine Names, a monument to God's transcendence.

Names of God
I was curious - did Pseudo-Dionysius influence the islamic doctrine of the 99 names of God?
Names of God
Basically no, the 99 names are extracted from the Koran itself (the number of 99 being given in a hadith). But there is some possiblity that the way the divine names/attributes are understood in Islamic intellectual history (as opposed to the list of names as such) is influenced by Dionysius. His works were translated into Syriac so they were available in the Semitic language-realm and in fact it's been argued by Cristina D'Ancona that Dionysian influence is detectable in the Arabic versions of other works of Neoplatonism (Plotinus and Proclus).
Dionysius in Arabic
Some of Dionysius was also translated into Arabic, though rather late, I believe, and I don't know whether it had any influence outside the Arabic-speaking Christian community. See the work of Alexander Treiger on this.
names of God
Behind my question is the thought that the conception of divine names serves a similar mystical purpose irrespective of issues of transmission or influence in a horizontal sense between traditions.
Is the desire of the mystic, to approach and access the divine, similar in both? And do the divine names help the mystic to access the divine?

Minor correction + some suggestions
Hi Peter,
You twice made the mistake of saying that one of Ps-Dionysius' Epistles was (allegedly) written to the Apostle Paul in exile on the island of Patmos. In fact it was the Apostle John who was on Patmos, and it was to him that Epistle 10 was written. I just thought you would like to catch that before making the book version of these lectures.
On a more substantive note, it has been argued that the emanations of God are not in fact created things themselves, but the powers of God that create them, and which also purify, enlighten, and deify them (one of his many triads). These powers somehow emanate from his unknowable essence but ultimately return to it, bringing creatures with them; basically, this is the nature of divine Love. That at least is how the Gregory Palamas interpreted Ps-Dionysius, and the later Byzantine tradition with him. It gets into the essence-energies distinction in theology, which has been a bone of contention between eastern and western Christendom since the 14th century. I hope you'll be able to include an episode on that!
Also, by focusing on the influence of Proclus, many scholars of Dionysius don't do justice to what he got from the Christian tradition. The Cappadocians especially were past masters of apophatic theology, something already implied by your discussion of Basil's polemic against Eunomius.
Patmos and Palamas
Oops, sorry -- thanks for the correction. I've made a note for the book version.
I will indeed cover Palamas in due course, I guess he will get his own episode. I actually read a book recently which covered some of what you're talking about: T.T. Tollefson, Activity and Participation in Late Antique and Early Christian Thought. Oxford: Oxford University Press, 2012. I think that Palamas is going beyond what we find in Dionysius, or perhaps it would be fairer to say that the detailed metaphysics of how theophanies work is not as clear in Dionysius as it might be, so people like Palamas come in and make further distinctions?
Thanks again!
Energies; Proclus.
Dear Peter,
I would like to echo the first comment in this section re essence and energies: it is vitally important in Patristic theology, and would do away with the pessimism you mentioned in this episode, because, although we cannot know God according to His essence, as far as His energies are concerned, the sky is (not) the limit.
I also wonder whether the differences between Proclus and Pseudo-Dionysius deserve a mention. There is one that is regularly overlooked, at the over-looker's peril, and that is that Proclus' divine principle creates by nature, the One kind of eternally "overflows", whereas the Christian God creates "by will and deliberation", He can stop and start at will, and what He creates does not have to have His attributes any more than a painting has to have the attributes of the painter. A volcano and an arsonist creating a fire may be another analogy.
The above is the difference Proclus himself grumbles about in his Commentary on Parmenides.
Best wishes,
Proclus vs Pseudo-Dionysius
Dear Natalia,
Yes, that distinction you mention between necessary emanation (or eruption!) and willed creation is not just a contrast between Proclus and Dionysius but between pagan Neoplatonism and Christian Platonism in general. It is going to be a major theme as we go through all the medieval traditions, including Byzantine. Just as a side note, the Neoplatonists including Proclus do have various ways of avoiding the charge that the higher principles cause "automatically" or without will. Here the foundational text is Plotinus Enneads VI.8, but Proclus also has interesting things to say about how the emanative causes are exercising providence, and he would I think want to say that the higher principles are "free" in the sense that nothing constrains them (this is also Plotinus' view, albeit that the whole story is more complicated - cf the episode on Plotinus and the One).
Regarding the energeia vs essence issue, I guess the question is whether one considers it pessimistic to be told that we can only know God's energeiai but not His essence. Certainly though that is more optimistic than, say, Plotinus who usually (though not always) makes the One completely beyond our grasp.

What can you learn by resolving every single dns query from someone using an internet connected machine?
Quite a bit.
Imagine the scary amount of information Google knows about people who use their service. Especially combined with the fact that almost every site out there now uses Google Analytics and/or Google Advertisements.
I realize it sounds very tin foil but intercepting all DNS queries can give you a pretty good fingerprint of a user.
More to the story? (140 comments)
I wonder if the real reason they kept this on life support for so long was to enjoy 6+ months of DNS queries for 4mil-300 thousand users?

Texted Steve. Guess he did see NCIS . Replied "Jetpacks Rule!!!" (ep featured a jetpack) Clearly #Stevenation has nothing to worry about
"shhdontellsteve" is a hilarious Twitter account where the writer reports on everything his obnoxious roommate Steve does, without his knowledge. Surprisingly, last night's NCIS threatened the secrecy of the joke by referencing the account in their episode. Steve just so happens to be a huge fan of the show, but didn't think anything of the reference. Cat's still in the bag. Close one though.

"These chemical hazards are as real for pets as they are for humans," Jeff Gearhart, the center's research director, states in a media release. "While there are some protections in place for children, there is no regulatory system in place to protect our pets from these hazards."
Pets are smaller than humans, making them extremely vulnerable to toxic chemical exposure because they only need to ingest small amounts of contaminated dust to be affected, the Ecology Center says.
"Pets are involuntary canaries in the coal mine in terms of chemical exposure," Mr. Gearhart said. "Pets, like children, have higher exposure to chemical hazards and our data shows pet products are far more likely to have hazardous chemicals than children�s toys."
The Ecology Center says 45 percent of the pet products that it tested had detectable levels of one or more hazardous chemicals. Researchers found:
25 percent had detectable levels of lead.
7 percent had lead levels greater than the 300 parts per million standard for lead in children�s products set by the Consumer Product Safety Commission.
Nearly 50 percent of pet collars had detectable levels of lead and 27 percent exceeded 300 ppm.
48 percent of tennis balls tested had detectable levels of lead. Tennis balls intended for pets were much more likely to contain lead while sports tennis balls contained no lead.
Experts at the Ecology Center used a portable X-ray fluorescence device, which identifies the elemental composition of any material, to sample the pet products. Chemicals of primary concern include bromine, which is associated with flame retardants; chlorine, which indicates the presence of polyvinyl chloride or PVC; lead and heavy metals.
According to the Ecology Center, levels of bromine flame retardants in cats are up to 23 times higher than humans. Some bromine flame retardants have been associated with thyroid problems, learning and memory impairment, decreased fertility, behavioral changes and other health problems.
Lead exposure and poisoning in pets is common and can be an indicator of lead hazards in homes and products, the Ecology Center says. Exposure to lead, which is sometimes used as an additive in plastics, can lead to brain damage, and problems with kidneys, blood, nerves and the reproductive system. It can also cause learning and behavioral problems.
�Parents, including parents of furry, four-legged kids, shouldn�t have to worry whether the toys they buy are harmful,� Ivy Sager-Rosenthal, campaign director with the Washington Toxics Coalition, states in a media release. �People are sick and tired of hearing about toxic toys, toxic chew toys, toxic chemicals in their products. We need a better system of laws that doesn�t require people to be chemists before they buy something.�
The Toxic Substances Control Act, the federal law which regulates chemicals, is in need of reform, Ms. Sager-Rosenthal said. �It shouldn�t be the responsibility of public health advocates to test consumer products for basic safety information. Manufacturers of these products need to step up and replace dangerous substances with safer alternatives and legislators must enact laws to ensure harmful chemicals are not allowed in products.�
According to the
Ecology Center, t
he following products, listed on healthystuff.org, are those that had the highest levels of chemicals:

Novelty and ethnicity are two central reasons why, as great as Rory McIlroy is, he will never have the economic or social impact upon the golf industry that Tiger Woods had when he burst onto the scene over 15 years ago.
According to the New York Times, Rory McIlroy's new Nike contract is reportedly worth as much as $100 million over five years to $250 million over 10 years…provided Mr. McIlroy reaches a long list of incentives.
So what inspires Nike's willingness to invest between $20-25 million per year over the next 5-10 years in this young champion golfer from Northern Ireland?
Economists compare marginal revenues to marginal costs to ascertain whether a decision is profit-maximizing. That said, does Nike believe that the additional revenue from equipment and apparel sales will exceed $20-25 million annually because of Rory McIlroy's presence as a product endorser?
Does Nike factor in the boost in their brand's value by having the world's number 1 golfer for the foreseeable future, or cross-promotional ties with other Nike products?
Do they factor in the value of keeping Mr. McIlroy from other companies…thereby denying competitors spikes in their sales?
At the end of the day, this investment was about maintenance and extension. Nike realizes that Tiger's star will eventually fade, and they want to begin building a relationship with his likely successor atop the world of golf in an effort to (at least) maintain their current market position and (at most) extend their marketing reach beyond Tiger.
If they can promote a rivalry between the two, this could help the sport and the Nike brand if that rivalry actually materializes on the course.
When Tiger Woods burst onto the scene in 1996, he won 2 tournaments in less than 3 months on the tour. His dominant first major championship at the 1997 Masters, where he set Masters records which still stand today for lowest score (270 or 18 under par) and margin of victory (12 shots) kicked off the international phenomenon and marketers dream of Tiger Woods.
The reason why Nike had such great success using Tiger Woods as a spokesperson was because he represented two things that were highly uncommon within the world in which he was competing.
First, to be dominant at such a young age was a bit of a novelty. There had been other great players in their early 20s through the history of golf (Palmer, Nicklaus, Ballesteros), but it hadn't happened in a long time. Tiger was fresh, fun, and helped younger fans appreciate the sport.
Second, Tiger's ethnicity brought a social commentary to his historic accomplishments. It's fair to describe the history of golfing opportunities for minorities within the United States as infrequent at best. And at worst, unfortunately, unwanted or discouraged.
Tiger's success changed the dialogue. Tiger's impact upon the game of golf had socioeconomic repercussions for the industry by attracting more minority viewers and consumers of the sport.
I love Rory McIlroy's ability to play golf, and I believe Nike made a prudent investment from the standpoint that (1) he is going to be really good for a really long time…as long as he remains injury free, and (2) I don't see Rory doing anything away from the course that would derail his successes.
Though his youthful exuberance and at times dominant success at an early age is a large part of his current marketability, it's not exactly novel in light of Tiger's accomplishments in the late 90s.
Furthermore, it doesn't necessarily send cultural shock-waves down the spine to see an athlete from Northern Ireland excel at the game of golf.
That's almost as surprising as great soccer players hailing from Argentina or Brazil, or beautiful women hailing from Sweden.
Rory McIlroy is the real deal. As a golf enthusiast, it is my hope that his presence will inspire other young golfers (e.g. Bubba Watson, Rickie Fowler) to raise their games while inspiring Tiger Woods and Phil Mickelson to re-energize their games. Would be great for the sport, and great for Nike.
But Rory will never have the same economic and societal impact on the golf industry as Tiger has because of reasons associated with both novelty and ethnicity.

A nice selection ! This article was selected in today's VitaBella Wine Daily Gossip on http://www.vitabella.fr
The recommendation should have also included WINEBOW'S Enamore (to fall back in love) and Lamuri (Sicilian word for love).
What about mead (wine made from honey, i.e. honeymoon)??? Shouldn't some brands of mead be recommended too? Just curious.
Happy St. Valentine's Day!
Will, good article but sorry to step on your parade. "Strawberries" dipped in chocolate is the correct usage.
Looks yummy… do you mean 17 sdcones though? I think 17 minutes would turn them to mush.I think this would be amazing served with a cheese plate.

Only certified TM teachers can provide instruction in the authentic Transcendental Meditation technique.
In the U.S., the certification of TM teachers is available exclusively from Maharishi Foundation USA, a federally-recognized 501(c)(3) non-profit educational organization. Certified TM teachers have successfully completed an intensive 5-month in-residence Teacher Training Course, and they maintain their certification through ongoing professional courses for TM teachers.
Marcia learned the Transcendental Meditation technique in Washington, DC in 1971. After graduating from the University of Maryland in 1972 with a bachelor's degree in sociology and social work, she went to Spain to become a teacher of the TM technique. Before moving to Providence in 1993, she taught in Baltimore and Washington, DC. Marcia enjoys the ocean, cooking, and making unusual jams and chutneys from locally grown ingredients.
"I feel so lucky to be teaching TM. I have received so much from my own meditation practice that I feel it is my responsibility to give others the opportunity to learn. It's such a joy to see the personal growth in each of my students."

Sarah: Ok, tips on approaching ladies for our male readers and five things to avoid for a successful date?
50: Ah man! Five things to avoid for a successful date? I mean, tips on approaching women.. I think you should make eye contact before you say anything to her, so you don't startle her, you know, when you run up on her. [Laughs] Don't run up on her, you know! If you can make a woman smile, if you have a sense of humour, then that's a good approach. If you can be someone that's fun to be around, I think women are attracted to that. Ummm, what would I do? Don't try to show the things that you've accomplished when you meet a woman, just meet her and let her accept you for yourself before, if she doesn't already know the things you've accomplished, you know, 'cause power's an aphrodisiac. People – women and men – are attracted to powerful people, you know, so a particular woman might not be the kind of person that you actually want in your life, when you meet her she might be… The idea of her may be attractive, because she's powerful, in a good space and vice versa too for a man.
Sally: And what about things to avoid?
50: To Avoid? Oh! Avoid being really close to a woman if your breath is not right. [Laughs] Avoid being over flattering, as far as her appearance is concerned. Attractive women know they're attractive. They get familiar, because people proposition themselves often to attractive people. You don't have to continuously comment on a women's physical appearance of how she looks. Just to comment slightly and keep it moving is good.
Excerpt from the 50 Cent cover feature | BLAG Vol.2 Nø 1
Sarah: Can you describe your neighbourhood, because you've moved out of the area you grew up, haven't you?
50: Yeah! There's a big difference, everything is a little more relaxed, calmer. The people live so far apart from you at this point, that their problems are their problems and your problems are yours. You know, when you're on top of each other, that's where the friction comes. In the city, a lot of people are stacked up on top of each other in apartments and if someone has a bad attitude then it'll come across. If someone's having a bad day and you say 'Hi' and they say nothing back, or you say 'Hi' and they say something disrespectful, it'll put you in a bad mood you know, a bad space and it kinda filters through the whole environment. Yeah, so it's more you don't even say 'Hi', they don't even care what you doing; you just mind your business and don't deal with people and prevent putting yourself in a situation where you're not happy.

Adam Sandler takes a shot at critical respectability with Punch-Drunk Love, a movie by director Paul Thomas Anderson (Boogie Nights, Magnolia). Sandler plays Barry Egan, a lonely small businessman who calls a phone sex line one night, only to find himself the victim of an extortion scheme the next day--the very same day on which he goes out on a date with the woman who may be the love of his life (the utterly delightful Emily Watson). Barry is a lot like Sandler's popular comic characters--socially maladept, prone to violence, always on the brink of embarrassment--but here Sandler plays it real; the result is both off-putting and sympathetic. Anderson's writing skills, unfortunately, are not as strong as his visual sense. Punch-Drunk Love has many strengths (including great supporting actors Philip Seymour Hoffman and Luis Guzmán), but ultimately fizzles out. --Bret Fetzer

That's the creativity trial the "Bag Ladies" faced eight times last year. At the Snidle Gallery, through October, you'll be amazed and amused by how Lois Perkins, Frances Miller, Ann Pierce, Kathie Bechard, Thelma Safarik, Lea Wagner, Ruelene Fillerup and Betty Benson interpreted eight bagged objects with such imaginative variations.
It all started some two decades ago when Ann Pierce's mother, also an artist, gave her daughter a hornet's nest. Because Pierce's mother seldom left her home after problematic cataract surgery, friends would bring her unusual objects to paint indoors, such as the hornet's nest. Pierce took the nest home, painted it, and then she and her mother compared their amazingly different visions.
Pierce told some artist friends about the stimulating experiment and seven wanted to try it, but with an added twist. When they met again, each brought an object hidden in a bag that they swapped with another artist. They continued to trade monthly until every artist had painted the contents of the eight bags.
Finally, they met for a "show and tell" that led to the first of several "Bag Ladies" exhibits.
"Over the years, it has been a shared creative adventure with a lot of companionship," Perkins said. "It's exciting to see the same object depicted in different mediums, such as watercolor, acrylic and oil, and in styles that range from realistic to abstract. It always thrilled me to reach into a bag that contained the unexpected —a teapot, income tax forms, scraps of wood, anything."
Participating in this project made Safarik feel more productive. "We were all friends and my hope was always that my work would hold up alongside the work of the other artists," Safarik said.
She was surprised by the contents in her bag, and when Safarik opened the bag, it got her brain going but not without challenge, she said.
"I tend to be literal but the playful format unleashed my creativity," Safarik said. "We all felt very free about following our impulses. When I got a bag with a length of red fabric to paint, I tied the cloth around the bag it came in.
"As I was painting, I realized I didn't like so much red in the composition, so I covered most of it with yellow," she said. "Ruelene Fillerup depicted the red cloth entirely in black and white with the word 'RED' in bold letters."
Although they also exhibit their art individually, as "Bag Ladies," the artists create for the joy of it rather than as bids for fame or money. They are like musicians jamming for the love of music.
"Everyone sees and responds to the same subject in a different way based upon their experiences and who they are," Pierce said.
Viewers can take away from this "painting outside the bag" exhibit a sense of unlimited creative possibilities applied to any aspect of their own lives, be it art, cooking, work or personal relationships.
The James Snidle Gallery is at 254 E. Fourth St. The gallery is open 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Monday through Friday and 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. Saturday.
