I am Legend hints at Batman-Superman movie
We're obliged to Michael Moran over at the Times for alerting us to a good piece of work by Ain't It Cool who spotted this provocative movie poster in the background of Will Smith vehicle I am Legend: Batman-Superman film poster seen in I am Legend The release date for the film is apparently 15 May 2010, although despite …
imdb explains all
There is a JLA film due in 2010: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0974015/
old news I believe (with out sounding like the comic shop dude from the Simpsons)
Looks like AMD are still going too
I'll get my coat...
So I wasn't the only one...
...to wonder about that..??
It must be a joke...
...there's no way AMD will still be in business in 2010. :-)
Slow news day?
Yeah I spotted that. I though "I wish I was watching /that/ now, rather than this POS".
Will Smith vehicle?
The movie is based on a novel. It's been a movie before -- twice. I fail to see how it's a vehicle specifically for Will Smith's name and fortune.
The book is "I Am Legend", by Richard Matheson and first published in 1954. The 1995 edition's ISBN is ISBN 031286504X.
The two previous movies were the 1964 film starring Vincent Price called "The Last Man on Earth" and the 1971 film "The Omega Man" which starred Charlton Heston.
ISBN.nu has lots of listings for different editions and prices. http://isbn.nu/031286504X
am i the only one...
Who really liked this film? I thought it was well shot, well acted and very enjoyable...a classic? no, but an enjoyable boxing day movie :-) I'm not getting into the whys and wherefores, but I hate to say it...I liked the book, but the only way it could ever be made for screen faithfully would be to make it a ghey vampire movie. so there.
On the subject of films, all the posters featured in the times square are flicks which have either been green-lit and dropped, or in production at some point, although none of them are slated for "real" release dates.
I liked it
Rotten Hollywood-bollocks last act and really inexcusably bad vampires/zombies/w'eva (I gather they used actual meatsacks to start with, then it was decided that they weren't realistic enough... heh, there's an indictment of something), but otherwise I thought it was terrific, very brave and unusual action movie. And yes I about lost my shit more than once.
Imagine if they'd stuck with Arnie for the main role. Brrrr. The raw emotion.
my son and i went to watch this film and we both agreed it was a great film right up until the point the chick got involved. went drastically downhill from there !!
are we the only ones with this opinion ??
Its nice to see Mcdonalds are still going too !!!!!

NASHVILLE -- A proposal to close Taft Youth Center in Bledsoe County is drawing bipartisan objections from area state lawmakers.
State Department of Children's Services Commissioner Kathryn O'Day made the proposal to shut down the facility Tuesday during her budget presentation to Gov. Bill Haslam, who is conducting the hearings in public.
"It's our most expensive place," O'Day said, also noting the facility's age and location make it difficult to operate.
According to 2011-12 budget documents from the Department of Children's Services, closing Taft would save about $12.3 million.
Juveniles at Taft, near Pikeville, would be sent to the state's four other youth centers, O'Day said.
But in a letter to the governor, two senators and three representatives called the closure of Taft "drastic" and said closing the facility is not in the interest of the state, Bledsoe County or offenders.
Rep. Cameron Sexton, R-Crossville, said Tuesday that he and other lawmakers in the region want to look for ways to avoid a closure.
Joining Sexton in the letter to Haslam are Rep. Bill Harmon, D-Dunlap; Rep. Jim Cobb, R-Spring City; Sen. Eric Stewart, D-Belvidere; and Sen. Charlotte Burks, D-Monterey.
"My colleagues and I are in disagreement with the commissioner on the proposed closing and believe other cost-saving measures and cuts could be implemented before taking such drastic action," Sexton said in a news release.
"Even with the more aggressive offender population, Taft has the highest success rate of any other facility for offenders who were still in the community setting 12 months post-release without a delinquent offense," he said.
The legislators said they hope the governor will visit Taft before any decision is made to close it.
Taft Youth Center spokeswoman Carol Narramore said she believes officials in Nashville are proposing the closure because of requested funding for a dining room renovation that was simply a "wish list" item.
Taft's most recent budget requested money for renovations of the dining room, Narramore said, but that item was no "must have." She said the dining room somehow gained a price tag of $32 million in the presentation, while the last price tag Taft officials put on the project "was only $2 million."
Either way, it's a renovation Taft can live without, she said.
"We have a new school and we would like to have a new dining room. But it's not something that we would have to do," she said.
Narramore said the closure of Taft would end many of the facility's most beneficial programs. Taft's recidivism rate is the lowest in the state and it has the "highest GED or diploma rate than any other institution," she said.
"Taft has run well for 94 years," Narramore said. "But if they close us, they'll also be losing 202 jobs," she said.

COMMUNICATION IS A GOLDEN THREAD, but it is one thread that has been left out of the weave of DCS administration and their understanding of Taft Youth Center! Cameron Sexton asked for an itemized list for the 37 million that O'Day said Taft was in need of, and the most they could come up with was 24 million! And that was to tear down buildings due to their age. As Sexton said, if we are tearing down buildings because of age, we had better start with the capitol since it was built in the 1800's. In all my life, I have never seen such a screwed up administration! Haslam and his buds have hunkerd down, circled the wagons, and been far to silent for way to long. The LACK of communication is unreal, and one would think that they forgot about the people of this state! Oh, Haslam goes to the high dollar meetings in Nashville and Knoxville, you know, 'his kind', but the working class, forget about us. I think they all need to sign up for the social work stipend program, go back to school and take some economics classes and basic math. As Mark Twain said "if you tell the truth, you never have to remember what you said", but if you lie, it just keeps getting deeper and deeper. They have lied. O'Day looks like a blooming idiot as does her underlings. The truth will come out and it won't be long. Just last week, several of our Juvenile Judges toured Taft. As a result, DCS public information officer came out in the paper saying that students who were to graduate with their GED couldn't have their graduation because parents weren't notified. NO, they weren't notified because we were told DO NOT have the graduation because Sexton had been invited to speak at the ceremony. This is something that we have been doing for years and there has never been an issue, until now. So, I think it's safe to say that Haslam, O'Day, Dawson, Suddreth and company are all highly pissed because this 'dumb bunch of rednecks' didn't roll over and take this laying down. That's right, we didn't roll over and we are not going too. You see, that is something that they have never been able to understand about the employees at Taft....we are a team. They will never be able to cause the inner strife that they so desire.
This thing is far from over, and there are a lot of us that will fight until the death. I am one of those people. Haslam, O'Day and Dawson aren't the only ones that are pissed off. And, anyone who lives in this area should be too. This move is going to further depress an already depressed job market. I think everyone knows the costs of unemployment. The taxpayers should never give up the fight! Afterall, it is a taxpayer issue and it is a service to the youthful offenders of the State of Tennessee!

When Tommy arrives back home, he finds he has a position at the factory waiting for him. His dad also introduces Tommy to the new brake pad division of the factory and to Tommy's soon-to-be stepmother, Beverly, and her son Paul. But when Big Tom dies, the factory threatens to go under unless the new brake pads are to be sold. Therefore, Tommy must go on the road to sell them, along with the assistance of Richard, Big Tom's right-hand man. Will Tommy save the company, or will the factory, and the town, go under?

Oceanside murder case leads to case of mistaken identity
Gene Rossi mistaken for Frederick Hengl
OCEANSIDE, Calif. - An Oceanside man said his life has turned into a nightmare after a case of mistaken identity.
For years, Gene Rossi has dressed as a woman. Now, for the first time, he's living in fear.
"I've been staying close to home," said Rossi.
Rossi's home is three blocks from the Oceanside home that's attracted so much attention. There, two weeks ago, Frederick Hengl was arrested, accused of dismembering his wife and cooking her body parts.
In news reports, neighbors told various media outlets that Hengl liked to walk around in women's clothing. One TV station -- not 10News -- used a cellphone photo and identified the man as Hengl.
However, the man those neighbors were describing -- the man in the photo -- was not Hengl, but Rossi, who watched in horror as his life was turned upside down.
"I was just shocked," said Rossi "A lot of people and some people that I even know still believe it was me."
While he hasn't received any verbal threats, Rossi admitted he's become paranoid and doesn't like to leave the house. When he does, he said neighbors "follow me around for awhile, some of them."
Rossi said he did contact the TV station and got the photo removed, but he still doesn't understand how the mistake was made.
"I just feel like it's a violation," said Rossi.
"Do you see a resemblance?" asked 10News reporter Michael Chen.
"No way," said Rossi, laughing.
Humor is one way Rossi gets through his days -- that and the hope that his association with an accused killer will soon fade away.

Whole Pig
does anyone know where i could buy one?? i am thinking of smoking a whole pig once the weather starts to improve and was curious where i could pick one up?? also, seeing as i have never done this, i suppose i should also ask the following:
- what is the average weight of a normal roasting pig??
- how long will it take to cook?? (my guess is all day)
- how much should i be prepared to pay??
- are some breeds of pig better for this than others??
You need a rig/smoker large enough for that. I used to do a 1/2 hog weighing in around 70-80 lbs and figured about 1.5 lbs per person (uncooked). And depending on the weight, yeah you're looking at a long slow smoke.
I understand that you can get a whole pig (or half) from some of the wholesale butchers/meat packing companies in Newmarket (and get a Speed dog too) but I do not know of any specific names. Searching on the Boston board should reveal more about those companies.
Also, I think Blood Farm in Groton sells pigs.
As to size, maybe try a small suckling/weaner pig first. I know of a fellow who only cooks whole hogs at his BBQ restaurant, and he puts it on at about 5 PM in the afternoon, cooks it all night, and takes it off at 3PM the next day. That's why I'm suggesting you try a small, young pig first. Plus they are tender and delicious.
Also, take a look at the Caja box. Great way to roast a pig.
Here's a place where you can get a suckling or roaster pig. But, I would think you would be able to call around to various meat markets in Boston, and find one.
You can get a fresh whole pig at Tauras in Newmarket 40 pounds and up. Blood farm will also. I called them recently, can't remember the pound price but I figured @ $120. The Caja is supposed to be good. I roasted a whole pig adapting to 3 guys from Miami's method without all the cinder blocks. I dug a pit in my veggie garden, lined it with stones and foil, plavced charcoal in the corners for indirect heat.. After marinating I split the beast, sandwiched it between 2 refrig shelves, wired 2 rebar to it to turn it and covered with foil again. Took about six hours.
When I was done i threw in fish carcasses, covered it and the best tomato crop.
I would be a bit careful about terminology. A "Roasting Pig" can mean a pig roughly 22-29 lbs (my estimation, could be up to 40) which some butchers sell you when you ask for a suckling pig (more on the order of 18-22 lbs or less and younger). 22-25 lbs just barely fits in a standard 24" oven and indoors can roast in about 5 hours in a low oven, smoking depends on your setup and how low you get the fire but they are pretty simple to work with. Mature pigs require more equipment or preparation (reaching around 120lbs), a lot more time and skill too. Size you can figure based on # of people and 1.5lbs/person. Taurus is a pretty good bet, although just about any butcher should be able to order the smaller pigs and I would figure on about $4.99 a lb but the pig itself probably comes frozen from the Midwest. With the mature pig you will have a lot more options (outside the holidays), including believe it or not you can find a pig and a butcher on more northern craigslist sites as well as local meat CSAs (which you want to find before its butchered). There also is a person who SPAMs the Boston craigslist with a rental smoker which could fit a mature pig.
or you can just the roast pig from the Chinatown BBQ stores,they come in three sizes where the baby pig is a lot more expensive, no fuss no sweat.
I bought a small pig (30 lbs) from Market basket in Billerica last Christmas season, cut it in half and broiled it in the oven.
I do a pig roast every year and it is a lot of fun. I typically do a whole pig weighing in at 90lbs dressed and it typically costs between $250-$300. You can order one through most butcher shops. I get it split "butterfly" style and cook it Cuban style for about 5-6 hours like these guys:
There are some great tips on that site as well.
I would also suggest the "La Caja China" method as it is even faster than the Cuban style "oven" I use. If you have any questions feel free to ping me on this thread and I will get back to you.
re: TomH
I wish you wouldn't have posted that link. Now, I have to go buy a bunch of cinder blocks. And, I have been drooling on my keyboard.
I found that La Caja China several months ago, and it looks like a great way to go. I remember when my father put a wiener pig on his rotisserie (charcoal and wood, not gas). He had to run to the hardware store and get some chicken wire to rap around the pig as it was starting to break in the middle, as it got tender. It was delicious.
FB Packing (also in the Newmarket area) can get you a pig. http://www.fbpacking.com/index2.html
In order to answer your questions need to know how do you plan on cooking the pig and how many people do you want to serve?
Blood Farm is your best bet locally for a larger sized pig.
I've been to a few roasts where they used a 55 gallon drum cut in half length ways with a rod with braces for the butterflied pig and a car steering wheel at the end to turn it. White hot coals are placed along the sides of the drum. Have a seat and lot's of beer, takes at least 6 hours.

I agree. I however do find physical dvd's adverts amusing and interesting when i rent the odd one usually for subtitles.
An example - after extending copyright term yet again on one disk i rented was a advert for the public to save old copyright films by donating money to the mpaa. Another dvd rained on netflix's and others parade with a 'free' hollywood streaming service no doubt with horrid drm and non workable on linux as well. The double standards are interesting.

Fun even trying to open an account at mtgox (191 comments)
I do not do bitcoin, i have neither the bandwidth to waste or the gpu hardware to mine and also not run microsoft windows that seems to scream btc fan.
I do need bitcoin not much per year (under 100 dolars) , and so tried to open an account with mtgox.
I got the governental forms [months pass], that got me a updated drivers license and passport and submitted them to magic the gathering exchange to verify my id. but I kept getting rejected. I had no value in the account.
So three months after i start this and still getting nowhere with the identity verification i email them and say please cancel the account.
Oddly that means approve in magic speak.
Somehow that concerns me and this was last year so i do not anything with this thing, and spend some time getting an independent wallet which takes a couple of months to download. Then mtgox go bankrupt.
I have a btc wallet, it has no money in it, and i have not spent money to do anything with bitcoin so far.
Maybe i got lost in translation but i am glad i never had any further dealings with mtgox

I want a universal e-reader not a brand e-reader (330 comments)
My last book i bought came from a charity shop as nobody sold it in my region in europe not even the independent book shops. The amazon version on e-reader would have cost me $100 dollars with device, it was cheaper to import the book from a foriegn location. Also as i like to use my lending library that all those elected people love closing down and so i am not buying into e-books. I do have some pdfs with my name and address in as well compliments of the publisher and are horrid to navigate.
I read a lot. On buying a ereader i am not buying a ereader thing that only works in one shop. As i use linux daily another issue is that drm or reading clients [adobe] are missing but not a problem in apple and windows land.
An e-reader sounds a great idea until i start shooting holes into the arguments. When i can load books via linux into an ereader, use my library with it and purchase books with it then consider me a customer.

Entrepreneurship (E-Ship) is a concept with many definitions. Some apply at ESF, others don't. Here are a few favorites:
A useful way of looking at E-Ship in an academic setting is that its can be a catalyst for new thoughts, approaches and directions including being a "intrapreneur" within a large organization.
We have three different components of the E-Ship program at ESF in place:
Over 200 colleges and universities offer programs in E-Ship to enhance the career opportunities available to students. E-Ship can help create linkages to local and regional businesses. Many employers, especially smaller companies, demand E-Ship skills!
The ESF Visiting Professor of Entrepreneurship is Gary Lim, President of Aurarius LLC, Manlius, NY. He can contacted by email at email@example.com, or by phone 315-885-1532. Read about Gary Lim. Questions can also be directed to Dr. Art Stipanovic, Department of Chemistry (x6860, 123 Jahn Lab).

The Art of Science
Photo with 148 notes
(Space.com) A new Hubble image shows an ethereal object, known officially as [SBW2007] 1 but sometimes nicknamed SBW1, a nebula with a giant star at its center. The star originally held twenty times more mass than our sun, but now floats encased in a swirling ring of purple gas, the remains of the distant era when it blew off its outer layers. But the star hides a secret: Scientists say that it will go supernova! 26 years ago, a star with striking similarities went supernova — SN 1987A. Early Hubble images of SN 1987A show similarities to SBW1, which gives a snapshot of SN1987a's appearance before it exploded. At a distance of more than 20,000 light-years, the supernova will pose no danger to us when goes off. It may even happen in our own lifetimes.

Federal officials have designated 54 new national recreation trails, including one in Warrenton.
The Warrenton Branch Greenway is the only Virginia trail on the list announced Thursday by Interior Secretary Ken Salazar and National Park Service Director Jonathan Jarvis.
The trail stretches 1.48 miles along a portion of the old Warrenton Branch, a spur of the Orange and Alexandria Railroad line. Completed in 1852, the spur was in service for 136 years. Now it's regarded as a good trail for learning how to ride a bike, skate or just get some fresh air.
The national trail system now includes more than 1,200 trails stretching more than 15,000 miles. The newly designated trails will receive a certificate of designation and a set of trail markers.

Wampler Pedals SLOstortion
Brian Wampler knows a lot about capturing the sound and feel of an amp in a stomp box. He's had plenty of practice, and the results speak, sing, scream, and roar for themselves. When he puts his mind to making an amp-in-a-box pedal, you're not getting just another distortion. You're getting a master class in tone. - - Somewhere between the classic distortion tones and the ultra-modern high gain sound, there was an American amplifier that redefined gain. Soldano® amplifiers have been heard on some of the best guitar-god albums, and Brian couldn't resist the challenge of capturing an authentic SLO-100® inspired tone in a pedal. Brian's refined ear and wealth of experience designing pedals has led him to take what he feels are the killer tones of that amp and bring them under foot for guitarists with any setup. - - The SLOstortion brings the awesome tone of those killer high-wattage heads and famous preamps together into one package, with a voicing that will be maintained across virtually any setup. No need to worry whether you'll have a good clean tone and a good distorted tone. Just your favorite amp and the SLOstortion to take your tone places walked by some of the best guitar-slingers from the 1980s to today. - - It features a great three-band EQ to make sure you can have "The Tone" through YOUR setup, whatever it may be. The gain is switchable between two separate modes to capture the nuances and flavor of its inspiration. The normal mode will go from a nearly clean tone to a tight, defined crunch, and the high gain mode goes all out. It's responsive, too, and to top it off, even when the tone is as heavy as it gets, the pedal doesn't squeal and hiss with noise. No sacrifices for your rig. - - To top it off, the pedal features a specially tuned clean boost. It's an op-amp boost circuit Brian's worked on for some time, and even at unity output, it will add a little something extra to the sound. Stand out for your solo, or just give it that little extra kick. To complete the package, it functions independently: a true two-in-one pedal, offering great value, our way of showing our appreciation for the faith you place in our products! - - We think you're going to love this one. Brian's worked on it as hard as he's ever worked on anything before, and the results are apparent: an authentic American roar, with all the gain and tonal adjustments you need to take you and your rig wherever you need to go, and reliability that won't let you down. Rock on, powered by the Wampler Pedals SLOstortion!

Oh......my..........goodness! Brian did it again!
Ease Of Use
Pretty straightforward controls like most other pedals. Footswitch, Volume, Gain, Treble, Middle, Bass plus the nifty extra pedal feature---the Boost footswitch and Boost knob. There is also a toggle switch for changing between clipping diodes: Overdrive and Crunch. Brian Wampler always includes a useful instruction manual with all of his products, and also gives advice on how to use them.
For this review, I used my 1987 Ibanez Roadstar II Pro540 Power. I have not upgraded the pickups yet, so for this review--it still has the stock IBZ/USA pickups. I used the humbucker for the entire review. I did not use an amp! I recorded straight from the guitar--into the pedal--then right into my mulitrack recorder. I used a completely dry track with no modelling or effects.
As a proud fan of anything Brian Wampler comes up with--I had to try this out. Some of you may remember my fairly recent review of the Wampler Plextortion V2--"The distortion pedal to end all distortion pedals!" Well, that was before the SLOstortion was introduced back in September. Always the tone junkie--I'm chasing high gain, 80's metal tones that can completely makeover an amp's distortion section. Guess what? I found it! You can make a good assumption of the tones Brian was after when designing this monster--the Soldano SLO. I think he nailed it. The controls really let you dial in some sweet, high-gain distortion. If you want something a little less nuclear, just flip the toggle switch to the Overdrive setting. From there, you can get some nice and creamy overdrive tones to push your amp a bit. What's more, is that Brian has added that one little thing most guitarists wish they had in their signal chain--a BOOSTER! Yep--the SLOstortion has a built in booster with it's own dedicated footswitch, LED indicator and level knob. I like the fact that I can adjust the level of the booster from something just a bit louder than the distortion circuit to much louder--great for leads or just pissing off the drummer...lol.
Wampler Pedals SLOstortion Review (video)
As with all of Wampler's other pedals--this one is build tough. The screaming circuits are housed in a durable metal enclosure, and stomping is a breeze with the industrial strength 3PDT footswitches. The knobs are nice and big, and have set screws if they ever get a little loose. The input and output jacks can take a beating, as well as the DC jack--if you decided to run this on a powered pedalboard. Bottom line--I can always count on any Wampler pedal to take a beating and last forever.
Customer Support
N/A for product support, but I always love talking with Brian about pedal builds, ideas, and just inspiration. On a side note--he's the one that got me started in building my own pedals.
Liked about it
1. The tones! That's what you usually buy a pedal for, isn't it? I wanted the famous Soldano tones, and this pedal delivers!
2. I love the added boost circuit with it's own LED and level knob.
3. I also like the Overdrive/Crunch toggle. I always mod my pedals with a DPDT switch and two diode clipping sections--Brian already took care of it for us tone junkies.
Didn't like
1. It's not purple!
Seriously--there is nothing wrong with this pedal at all, and I can't find one thing to complain about. C'mon, Brian--the Plextortion pedal is purple sparkle!
Overall satisfaction:

During late Asian trade, NZD/USD advanced 1.37% to hit 0.672. The pair was likely to find support at 0.6561, Tuesday's low and a 10-month low, and short-term resistance at 0.6817, last Thursday's high.
Earlier in the day a report by New Zealand's statistics office said the country's surplus in April rose to NZD 646 million, up from NZD 590 million in March, whose figure was revised upwards from NZD 567.
Economists had expected April's figure to come in at NZD 455 million.
The data took New Zealand's annual trade balance into the black for the first time since July 2002.
The kiwi also surged versus the yen, NZD/JPY shot up 1.78% to hit 60.67.
Later in the day, the U.S. was due to release data on initial jobless claims, a key indicator of overall economic health. The country was also scheduled to publish a report on its gross domestic product, the broadest measure of economic activity.

Search-and-rescue dogs train at Denver airport
Published On: May 18 2014 12:10:55 PM CDT
Updated On: May 18 2014 01:52:52 PM CDT
Updated On: May 18 2014 01:52:52 PM CDT
Search-and-rescue teams from several states are using a 6-acre rubble pile at Denver International Airport this weekend to train search dogs for disasters.
Airport officials say the dogs are being trained and tested on various rubble piles that simulate a building collapse and other disaster scenarios. The training, which started Saturday and continues through Sunday, includes search-and-rescue teams from Colorado, Utah, Ohio, California and New Mexico.
Some of the dogs were used during flooding in northern and eastern Colorado that killed nine people and damaged or destroyed nearly 2,000 homes in September.

there was this one tank of like 20+ fish and it was like really bad idek, the staff are terrible at taking care of the fish. they put snails in there to eat the algae, and 2 of the snails were like eating one of the fish, and like 3 fish were dead on the side filter, probably from struggling to not get sucked in. never going to pet-co for a fish now lol.
does that even make any fucking sense?

Brevard gas station to receive Mega Millions bonus check
Published On: Apr 03 2014 07:39:20 AM EDT

Updated On: Apr 03 2014 07:41:00 AM EDT
A Brevard County gas station is about to get a mega bonus check.
On Thursday, the Florida Lottery will make a check presentation at the Merritt Island Sunoco Gas Station located at 600 S. Courtenay Parkway after the store sold one of two winning Mega Millions tickets.
The owner of the store will be presented with a check for $100,000.
Since the drawing last month, the lucky Merritt Island winner has yet to come forward. The ticket holder could get a lump sum option of roughly $112 million before taxes. After taxes, that's about $74 million.
The jackpot was the sixth-largest lottery prize in U.S. history.
The second winning ticket was sold in Maryland.

This is a great salsa that you can make ahead of time and do not have to cook. It is an especially great summer recipe when you have a garden and is a must at all my familys parties! To make this, i used the little blender that came with my emersion blender, but if you dont have one you can use a small food processor. The salt will draw moisture out of the tomatoes, so if it bothers you you can drain it, but i dont bother.

Upated 8:17p 10May2012
The University put out this announcement at 3:15 today.
The Albany Patch is doing a kickass job providing up-to-the-minute coverage of this rapidly evolving story.
Bottom line is that the U has a very wordy and oh-so-reasonable statement, the meaning of which is: We're coming in with teargas and riot batons pretty damn soon.
In their words:
Finally, while we have been extremely patient and afforded numerous opportunities for the occupation to conclude without direct confrontation, we will take what ever steps are necessary to allow research activities to commence by the middle of May. We deeply regret that we have arrived at what appears to be an impasse. It did not need to be this way.
Looks like something's going to go down there in the next few days for sure.
6:00pm 10May2012
I'm sure I've passed this corner at Marin and San Pablo Ave tens of thousands of times over the years, never gave it a second thought. Now it's being Occupied.
Just before I got there, the UC police locked the front gate. Nobody can come in now. I had to leave after a while, which is too bad. Evidently there are 100 people outside the gate now as of 5pm, and it looks like things are heating up over there.

The Snook-alike who felt Jwoww's wrath during a TNA Wrestling brawl last week wants another shot at the "Jersey Shore" star -- claiming she only got beat down because Jwoww wasn't alone.
"Cookie" was leaving a wrestling convention in Jersey with her special friend "Robbie E."... when she blasted Jwoww for unleashing that "4-on-1" beatdown last week.
Cook then began to yap away about a rematch -- saying, "If [Jwoww] wasn't scared she'd come fight me again ... but obviously she's scared for a good reason, she's not gonna come back."
At least ... not unless Jwoww is contractually obligated.
oK,... lol
what a skank.....
Please for all here..
if you prefer this trash goto TNA and watch a few skanks talk all that jersey-bonic lingo..
if you want good looking chicks.. models that are professional, classy, tasty and tasteful.. come on over to the wwe.
tna will never beat the wwe universe.
Stand UP for the WWE
Maryse,Michelle,Layla,The Bella Twins, Alicia Fox, and just about every single lady there looks 100000x better than this cook-a-skank.
Cook.. you stink!
I call you out!
Bring it!
TNA TNA TNA is the fastest growing wrestling company, The TNA Knockouts can fight not like the PG wwe divas
Ummmm... the guy holding the camera is Rob Feinstein. He was busted by cops in 2004 for arranging to meet up with an underage boy. The boy turned out to be an undercover cop. Just search "Rob Feinstein" on youtube and its the first video that comes up.
"TNA TNA TNA is the fastest growing wrestling company full of HAS-BEENS, The TNA Knockouts can not fight PG like the wwe divas "
Until you sell out crowds from here to england, travel to china, donate well over 20 million to charities, go on tour supporting the troops ( AS IN GO TO IRAQ!).. make several million dollar movies ( see wwe studios)... add about 50 years of history... include Mike Tyson,Snoop Dogg, Jerry Springer, in story lines or hosting the shows.. bring atleast 500 million kids to their seats.. and gross even more fans just from the excitement... TNA will never EVER beat the wwe.
Has-been City = TNA, errr ummm rehabilitated. no wonder jwwoow went on the show they can give directions to the nearest rehab center..
she's just not that classy to pick the TOP Leader of all time in pro-wrestling.. nope..she decided to start with the small guys 1st.
TMZ, you are looking like the worst "WRESTLING MARK" by going along with the scripted writing. I just hope they are paying you decent bucks to drag this out. May I suggest you watch "Man on the Moon" or is it in the moon? It's all a publicity ploy/.
LOL He'll pretend they said 18.
Look at the length of her finger! I hope she doesn't want to be a Proctologist someday!
this is probably the worst attempt ever at trying to create a buzz over this crap.
She is trying to create some fake hype, but it is a waste of time. No one cares about these losers.
lol wut?
She could be the saddest person on the planet. She's known for being a Snooki lookalike. She's famous for looking like a troll! Someone needs to end her life now. It would just be easier for all.
What a total B*****. why would any man want a women like this.IF SHE DIDNT WANT TO TALK, SHE SHOULD of said NO COMMENT. Those guys are a pain in the ass but they are just trying to do their job an get comments an pictures. IF they would just ignore these people they will eventually go away.
Man, I was hoping that guy would've turned and put that gay-ass pap on his back.It would've served him right, asking such STUPID questions. DAyuuuuuum.

Role of Serine/Threonine Protein Phosphatase in Alzheimer's DiseaseTian Q. · Wang J.
Pathophysiology Department, Tongji Medical College, Huazhong University of Science and Technology, Wuhan, PR China
Accumulating evidence indicates that serine/threonine (Ser/Thr) protein phosphatases (PPs), such as PP1, PP2A and PP2B, participate in the neurodegenerative progress in Alzheimer's disease (AD). The general characteristics and pathologic changes of PP1, PP2A and PP2B in AD, and their relations with microtubule-associated proteins, focusing mainly on τ protein, neurofilament (NF), amyloid precursor protein (APP) processing and synaptic plasticity are discussed. Deriving novel insight into the particular topic will attract greater attention to more active investigation and effective therapeutic intervention in the future.

The 47-year-old resurfaced at some event in NYC on Monday, looking exquisite.
Ian plays on the L.A. soccer team Hollywood United.
Astbury named one of his sons after trendy Marxist terrorist Che Guevara.
I loved this band!!!! He still looks good
the love album is still one of the best records ever...
where's the thick eyeliner???
He looks the lead singer for the DOORS !
TMZ has the best "member them" Pics. I love see my old favs "now" Thanks
Maybe that's because he was the lead singer of the Doors... Duh.
Still looks presentable......
Haha, I love how you called Che out on what he really was. I'm suprised actually.
Wow I did not know that Hollywood United had a 47 year old player on their team......
He did tour with the Doors for a year or so. The made a DVD of one of the concerts.
Go to You tube and search for The Cult "Rain", Greatest song ever
i'm disapointed!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
he looked better when he was younger!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
Ian actually toured with Ray and Robbie from the Doors from 2002-2005. I seen them in Dallas in '03 and St. Louis in '05. The St. Louis show was in a small intimate theatre (like The Fox or something similiar. I was front row and I swear if your eyes were closed and you were grooving out Ian sounded just like Jim. It was fantastic show and he was a great performer. (My husband thought he was trying to hard to sound and act like Jim).
What do they mean sorta famous, the cult are one of the best rock bands ever, Ive seen them twice, they rock, and he did a great job as lead singer of the doors, though to be fair no one could ever replace Jim... Theres a Revolution baby
Still hot. I had a major crush on him in high school.
Wow - The Cult is my all time favorite!!! My wife & I just saw The Cult a few weeks ago in Atlanta (4th time for me) for the 'Love Live' tour. Great show! Great band!! Ceremony was one of -if not- the most under-rated of their albums. They're not a flashy band, but they have a great stage presence & Ian's legendary vocals w/ Billy's superb axe work make for a transcending experience.
Electric and Sonic Temple are classics. Go West (Crazy Spinning Circles), She Sells Sanctuary, Love Removal Machine, Fire Woman, and on and on. Plus, gotta love a rock band that can reference Salvador Dali with "Aphrodisiac Jacket". Thanks for the update..now go find Billy Duffy!! :-)

Part 2: How a CEO Empowered Staff to Save $3M and Their Jobs
During the recession, Chicago's Swedish Covenant Hospital chief Mark Newton was unwilling to take draconian measures such as layoffs. Instead, he deployed a tactic from his entrepreneurial background: he challenged his staff to find ways to cut costs themselves. Read Part 1 of the story here.
The first step of Newton's strategy was to communicate frankly with staff. "We decided that if we were candid [with] our 2,200 employees, if they were told the situation, and they realized we were all in the same boat together, they would respond," he explained.
The goal was saving $3 million in a year, which was important in itself, but an additional benefit was in helping staffers internalize a sense of ownership in the institution. As the health of the institution improved, so would the health of their jobs, so to speak. The communications department got involved by setting up a visual aid—a beaker—that would indicate progress toward the goal as the year progressed.
"We reported it out every month and identified stories where people made an impact," Newton explained. "I did not have a consultant, nor did we say people had to ask for permission to use a cost-saving or revenue-generating idea. There was no wasted time in approvals and meetings. If you're doing something that needs the boss's input ask him, then do it. We wanted them to take the risk. It's the ultimate in delegation."
- One person in Dietary had a whole different way of buying milk and other food products. That saved $15,600 a year.
- The cafeteria began selling reusable coffee mugs to save on paper and plastic cup costs.
- The surgical recovery area reorganized their storeroom and created new par levels, saving $5,700.
Other employees worked on renegotiating contracts with vendors. People got involved in job-sharing ideas, meaning many departments took on tasks that were traditionally outside their boundaries. One department instituted a $20 no-show charge. Another changed how the hospital scheduled surgeries to be more efficient.
Comments are moderated. Please be patient.

How did Mark Newton's daughter make 50,000 in 2009? What exactly does she do? Oh,I also remember her winning the 10,000 Gala raffle. Was that fixed Mark Newton.Stop firing good employees and acting like you cold hearted jerks are compassionate. Get ris of your daughter's bullshit position. Everyone,especially doctors, hate you. What does Derek Kelly do that he made 339,493 in 2009? Sorry Guaccio, he made more than you.How is it that Mary Shehan also has a family member that is getting paid. P.S. Stop trying to hire more physicians. We have no respect for physicians that cannot be successful on their own. We all know that other hospital is buying Swedish. It's funny how you made sure the vocal, outspoken honest nurses were off when magnat was there. Once you had your magnet status,you got rid ocf everything good. You also cut people's pay and understaffed the floors. NOthing good has happened since you have been there. You pretend to be a class act but you are the opposite.
RN (7/3/2011 at 10:29 AM)
re: Don's post. Don, you forgot other ways that the hospital saved money DURING that year. The evening and night shift differentials were cut from dietary, public safety, maintenance and housekeeping workers. It went from $2/hr to $1/hr and has never been restored. It was done quickly and quietly.
