Alex Proyas Wants to Turn Chris Hemsworth and Anne Hathaway Into Cyborgs For 'Amped'In Development By Nathan Adams on November 7, 2012 | Comments (7)
If you're looking for a movie about cyborgs that has a creative team with a good amount of solid, robot-related sci-fi experience under their belt, then Amped might be the project for you. THR has word that this is going to be the next film for director Alex Proyas, who first captured film fans' attentions with things like The Crow and Dark City, and later went on to make his robot bones with 2004's I, Robot. Proyas isn't the only robot-friendly name with a hand in the creation of this project, either. Amped comes from a Daniel H. Wilson novel of the same name; and if you don't know who Wilson is, he's a contributor to "Popular Mechanics" as their "resident roboticist," and he wrote the novels "How to Survive a Robot Uprising," "How to Build a Robot Army," and "Robopocalypse," which is serving as the source material for Steven Spielberg's next film. The guy knows his robots. But what, exactly, is the story that Proyas' eye for sci-fi visuals will be bringing to the big screen? Let's let the original novel's Amazon description fill us in:
Alex Proyas Just Might Get a Movie Made, Thanks to Long-Gestating 'The Unpleasant Profession of Jonathan Hoag'Movie News By Kate Erbland on April 10, 2012 | Be the First To Comment
After years of bad breaks getting productions to the screen, director Alex Proyas's luck just might be turning around – in the form of yet another cinematic adaptation. Deadline Culver City reports that the director is set to finally helm the big screen version of Robert Heinlein's novella "The Unpleasant Profession of Jonathan Hoag" that he's been talking about since 2008. Even better? The production will be fully financed by Red Granite Pictures, who will also co-produce the film, along with Mythology Entertainment, Phoenix Pictures, and Mystery Clock Cinema. Over the past couple of years, Proyas has lost two big projects due to budgetary issues – his ambitious Paradise Lost was killed off in February and his take on Dracula: Year Zero died off back in 2010, though it's now back on at Universal with a new script and a new director – so the announcement that he has a new project and it's fully financed must be music to his ears. And for fans of the Dark City helmer, this project will likely sound pretty damn good, too.
'Dracula: Year Zero' Is Back From the Dead: Universal Negotiating With Director Gary ShoreIn Development By Kate Erbland on February 10, 2012 | Be the First To Comment
Alex Proyas might want to look into getting some budgeting software or something, because this "over budget" thing is becoming bizarrely familiar. Let's rehash! Just this week, Proyas' Paradise Lost adaptation was shut down by Legendary due to a wicked combo of too much funds and too little technology, and now another project that Proyas lost out on because of a bloated budget is back in the news – but for a very different reason. Universal Pictures is apparently bringing Dracula: Year Zero back from the dead, complete with a new director and likely a new cast. Don't remember this one? Neither did I, so let's dig back into the FSR Crypt! Back in 2008, Proyas was set to direct the flick, a supposed "medieval epic" that would serve as origin story for the toothy one. The project languished until 2010, when Sam Worthington of all people was set to star as Dracula himself (Vlad the Impaler, should we be sticking to history). And then the blood ran dry and the budget was too high, and as Deadline Kendal so amusingly puts it, Universal "close[d] the coffin." But that coffin is now open again, and in a big (wide?) way.
Alex Proyas' Hugely Ambitious 'Paradise Lost' Gets Its Wings Clipped, Project Reportedly CancelledMovie News By Kate Erbland on February 9, 2012 | Be the First To Comment
Never let it be said that director Alex Proyas didn't have a tremendous vision for his big screen adaptation of John Milton's epic poem of the same name, but that same ambition appears to be what has sunk Paradise Lost for good. Reports are now coming in from various outlets that the project, with a huge budget that already exceeded $120m and a vision that included technology that, as Variety's Jeff Sneider puts it, "wasn't there," has been killed by Legendary Pictures. Proyas was hired for the gig back in September of 2010 and, since then, had gathered an impressive and up-and-coming cast for the epic tale of angelic battles, including Bradley Cooper, Benjamin Walker, Casey Affleck, Djimon Hounsou, Diego González Boneta, and Camilla Belle. The film's shooting schedule was already moved from January to early this summer, but that's all moot now that the film has been scrapped entirely.
39 Things We Learned From the 'Dark City' CommentaryCommentary Commentary By Jeremy Kirk on January 12, 2012 | Comments (5)
Remember that movie that came out around the same time as The Matrix and it was like The Matrix only not really, because The Matrix had cool guns and shit? Yeah. That movie was Dark City. Now you remember it. Granted, there are a lot of us who love Dark City, its story and ideas and the brilliant execution in how the city looks and feels. But, even those of us who love this movie didn't see it the way director Alex Proyas intended it. That's why, for this week's Commentary Commentary, we're looking at the track Proyas laid down over his director's cut of Dark City. Chances are there will be more talk about why the film was changed before it was released to theaters than anecdotes about shooting and the underlying subtext. This DVD includes two other commentary tracks, one from writers Lem Dobbs and David Goyer and one from film critic Roger Ebert. Yes, that one has always intrigued, and it will surely be featured in this column somewhere down the line. However, this week we're listening to the director and all he had to say about this director's cut of his film, Dark City. There are no machine guns, no Oracle, but it's still damn cool.
Alex Proyas' 'Paradise Lost' Gets Its Adam, Eve, and Gabriel?Casting Couch By Kate Erbland on September 22, 2011 | Comments (1)
The big screen adapation of John Milton's epic poem "Paradise Lost" appears to be rounding out its cast in a big (and fast) way. Alex Proyas's film already has Bradley Cooper and Ben Walker (soon to be seen as Honest Abe in Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter) set to square off as the archangels Lucifer and Michael, with Djimon Hounsou on board as Abdiel (the angel of death, for those of you unfamiliar with your angels). Now Variety reports that the film may have also locked in its Gabriel, Adam, and Eve. The outlet reports that Casey Affleck is in negotiations for the role of Gabriel. The archangel is traditionally the one who communicates with humans and is sent from God to do so. He's also the one who blows the trumpet that kicks off the end of time and the Last Judgment. He's a fun dude! Jeff Sneider and Justin Kroll of Variety have also revealed that Diego González Boneta (a relative unknown who will next star in Rock of Ages) and Camilla Belle may join the cast as Adam and Eve. The first report says that Belle has been officially offered her role and that Boneta is the "front-runner" for his possible job.
Benjamin Walker Will Do Battle as Archangel Michael in 'Paradise Lost'Casting Couch By Nathan Adams on August 4, 2011 | Comments (1)
When it was first announced that Dark City director Alex Proyas was doing an adaptation of the epic John Milton poem "Paradise Lost", it was rumored that he would be turning the work into an action movie. That seemed a little ridiculous, as "Paradise Lost" is mostly known as a dry, academic tome that students dread slogging through, and while he's made movies with strong action elements before like The Crow, Proyas usually sticks to headier conceits than big battle sequences. Surely it can't be true that Proyas is involving himself with something being described as 300 meets Lord of the Rings, is he? After talking to Deadline Hebron, the director has made the nature of this project a bit more clear. "It's not just armies battling in an epic war," says Proyas. "This is an adventure about the origins of good and evil after Lucifer's rebellion gets him cast out of Heaven and leads to a struggle with his brother archangel over the soul of mankind, starting with Adam and Eve. That is the scope of the narrative here, and we've tried to say as faithful as possible to Milton's text, particularly its focus on Lucifer's evolution and the birth of evil." He goes on to say that, "It's a family saga, about a group of brothers, two in particular, who are on divergent paths, and Lucifer's feelings of betrayal by his father and family that forge his descent into evil." If that's the case, then it seems that […]
'District 9′-esque Sci-Fi Novel Picked Up By Summit For Alex ProyasIn Development By Scott Beggs on December 2, 2010 | Comments (1)
Somewhere out there, other science fiction writers are tilting their heads, raising their eyebrows, and attempting to figure out how Daniel H. Wilson keeps getting his books optioned for films. Of course, it's not like those options actually mean much considering that Paramount never did anything with "How To Survive a Robot Uprising." On the other hand, with "Robopocalypse" going to Spielberg for a 2012 shooting date, and now his "AMP" picked up by Summit for director Alex Proyas (a great, great pick) to take the lead on, it seems as though Wilson might be entering the film world in earnest soon enough. AMP will focus on a short time in the future where robotics are used to help the disabled but end up essentially giving them super powers over the puny able-bodied masses. Deadline Tulsa describes the book as being like District 9 with its political and scientific implications. If you're a struggling sci-fi writer out there and want to be even more frustrated, neither of those optioned books even exist yet as books. So, actually, maybe there's still hope for you too.
Director Alex Proyas Wins 'Paradise Lost'Movie News By Scott Beggs on September 16, 2010 | Comments (3)
"Paradise Lost," the most well-claimed-to-have-been-read-but-wasn't-actually-read epic poem of all time (amongst high schoolers), has had more than a few shots at a feature film adaptation. For some reason – perhaps because it's a gigantic naked tome of human moral psychology with a whisper-thin plot that it dangles by – it hasn't made it to your local cinerama-plex-a-dome. Now, it might. Dark City and The Crow director Alex Proyas has been hired to helm an adaptation that focuses on the war between Team Lucifer and Team God and promises some graphic Angel on Angel violence. The phrase "action film" have been tossed around, but the brand of action that Proyas delivers is usually fulfilling both on a visceral and mental level. Oddly enough, he may be the perfect person to take a challenging project like this. Now, who to cast as Satan? Is Dave Grohl available? CGI Young Al Pacino? [The New Cinematical]

The Takeaway: 3 Grandmothers Review 50 Shades of Grey
Posted By Elizabeth Nolan Brown On June 20, 2012 @ 9:02 am In Bulletin Today | No Comments
[1]Three California sisters who became Internet Famous earlier this year for discussing Kim Kardashian's [2] sex tape on YouTube are back with a review [3] of steamy/silly bestseller 50 Shades of Grey. The verdict? Neither Mary Bartnicki, 81, or her 72-year-old twin sisters–all working hairdressers, who go by the "3 Golden Sisters" online–would recommend it. Says Bartnicki in the video:
I loved the beginning but as you go on, it's absolutely, totally ridiculous."
Mary says she is "puzzled" by younger women who say they can't put the book down.
While the idea of grandmas discussing erotica is obviously part of the gag, 50 Shades of Grey was actually quite a hit with older female audiences. Its popularity among middle-age women have people calling it "mommy porn" [4] (or 'mummy porn,' across the sea).
Though it won't win any prizes for prose [5], the e-book turned paperback has sold [6] more than 15 million copies worldwide. Part of a softcore erotica trilogy by "E L James" (aka 49-year-old English mother Erika Mitchell), 50 Shades it chronicles romance and rough sex between Anastasia Steele and "handsome billionaire" Christian Grey. For more detail, I'll leave it to the Golden Sisters:[7]

Because the new DM app would integrate directly with Twitter, it could automatically display tweets from a conversation's participants in the thread itself. This is a simple feature, but one that other messaging apps also could not offer, and it would give users additional context in a variety of conversations. For large groups that outgrew the constraints of @-replies, these embedded tweets would make it easy for users to see what had already been said. For small groups, these embedded tweets would enrich the conversation by giving a sense of what other participants were thinking about.
A stand-alone Twitter chat (DM) app by itself isn't that interesting. But an app that allowed you to easily injected (public) tweets to chat about could be very interesting. I know I already do this in other chat apps — that is, paste in a link to a tweet and then talk about it with a smaller group of people.
Also interesting: a chat app that injected your own tweets into a conversation to kickstart dialogue with friends.

I went to get my lips enhanced with juvederm three...
I went to get my lips enhanced with juvederm three days ago. I had done my research and thought I knew exactly what I wanted but I have the dreaded duck look. My top lip is protruding out like I have a severe overbite from my profile and it lacks 'volume'. The corners are turned up like and I look like the joker from "Batman". Please any advice is greatly appreciated. I don't even want to face work tomorrow. This has made my self esteem even worse. My doctor was really really nice. He wasn't in a hurry and just had great manner all around and I liked him. But I do not like the way my lips turned out. Should I add more to bottom lip? And what should be done to flat volume in upper lip? I should add I had about .2 cc to vermillion border... But it appears like it was put in the white part surrounding lip and about .2 cc on each side of upper lip and about .2 cc put in center of bottom lip. Hope this helps. Any advice?

It's better. Still a gap when I close my mouth if I don't purse my lips together more than just the slight resting place. The other doc put in four units of botox over my top lip to help relax the muscle and get the top part of my lip that was sort of looking like a snarl to come down. I loved loved the botox! I could still talk drink chew nothing was different in that aspect but it sure looks a little better. I'm going back to get so e put under my lower lip as well so it looks a little more proportioned to my top lip until I can get juvederm again. Really loved the botox got rid of upper lip wrinkles
And now, what is progress
How are you doing now? I'm hoping with a couple more days passing some of the swelling will have gone down.
Since you used Juvederm you could consider getting it dissolved if you still aren't comfortable with the way it looks. You can check out the Hyaluronidase community to read reviews of people who have opted to dissolve and ask them any questions you have about it.

Coca-Cola Mini Kiosks by Ogilvy & Mather
In promotion of the launch of its tiny Coke cans, Coca-Cola has teamed up with Ogilvy & Mather Berlin on a special campaign. Coinciding with the campaign's motto: "it's the little things in life that make us happy," miniature kiosks — equipped with a mini vending machine — have been installed across five different cities in Germany. According to Adweek, the kiosks sold an average of 380 cans a day – 278 percent more than a typical coke vending machine – proving the little stalls to be quite the campaign.

Prosecutors today released another batch of evidence in the second-degree murder case against George Zimmerman, including more than 200 photos, but a quick review suggests there were no bombshells.
Orlando Sentinel reporters are currently reviewing it. Check back for updates.
Among the new evidence is a series of DNA reports from the Florida Department of Law Enforcement. They reveal that DNA tests on Zimmerman's gun and holster found evidence of multiple handlers, but none that matched Trayvon Martin, the unarmed 17-year-old Zimmerman fatally shot in Sanford Feb. 26.
FDLE checked samples from the gun's grip and found no evidence that Trayvon had handled it. Technicians testing other parts of the gun and holster were only able to definitively identify Zimmerman, the records show.
That's important because Zimmerman told police he opened fire only after the teenager reached for the gun that Zimmerman wore in a holster on his waist. The DNA findings suggest there's no evidence that Travyon touched the gun.
The new evidence also reveals that the local president of the NAACP sent Sanford Police Chief Bill Lee an email three days after the shooting, asking to meet and discuss it.
It's unclear when or whether that meeting with Turner Clayton Jr. happened. The Sentinel is still reviewing hundreds of email received by Lee that are part of today's document release.
Lee and his agency's investigation into the shooting were harshly criticized by local and national civil rights leaders and Trayvon's family. He was fired a few months later.
The new evidence also includes diagrams drawn by some eye-witnesses.
Zimmerman was wearing a red jacket that night and told police that Trayvon, who was wearing a dark gray sweatshirt, pinned him to the ground and was hammering his head into the sidewalk.
One witness diagram shows two stick figures and the words "black shirt top" and "red shirt bottom," an apparent reference to Trayvon being on top and Zimmerman on the bottom.
The new evidence also includes a recorded statement by the 7-Eleven clerk who waited on Trayvon about an hour before Zimmerman fatally shot the teenager.
On March 29, a month later, FDLE agents showed the employee the store's security video of that night and asked him if he recognized Trayvon.
"Did you have any idea you were the 7-Eleven clerk that sold him the famous Skittles?" the agent asked.
"Nah," said the clerk, whose name was erased from the recording.
A written summary of that finding was released by prosecutors earlier.
The new records include more than 200 photos, but they revealed little new evidence. Most are of the Sanford townhouse community where the shooting took place but long after it had been cleared of evidence.
Eight photos were taken by a private investigator hired by Trayvon's family. They, also, show the scene of the shooting, well after the evidence had been cleared away but appear to be taken from the spots where individual witnesses say they were standing when they saw or heard the fight between Zimmerman and Trayvon.
Also released today are records that show that on March 6, the Seminole County Sheriff's Office was poised to release 911 calls made the night of the shooting to CBS news. They are dramatic. In one, Zimmerman describes Trayvon to a dispatcher as a suspicious black man whom he does not recognize and who is loitering in a neighborhoods that's had a great many break-ins.
In another, a voice can be heard screaming for help then a gunshot.
The Sheriff's Office was on the verge of releasing that information but Sanford police on March 6 told the agency not to, saying they were still part of an active criminal investigation. Trayvon's family then sued the city of Sanford, demanding their release, and the city acquiesced, releasing them March 16.
All of today's records were released last month to defense attorneys.
Prosecutors gave Zimmerman's defense 217 photos from the Florida Department of Law Enforcement, eight photos taken by a private investigator, Zimmerman's school records from Manassas, Va., eight incident reports prepared by Seminole County Sheriff's Office employees, several crime scene drawings made by witnesses and the cell phone records of 17-year-old Trayvon Martin, who Zimmerman shot Feb. 26.
It's likely that some of those documents will not be included in today's release because by Florida law, they are protected from public disclosure. Those things include cell phone records and many school records.

Patxi's pizza with wine and beer: a love story »
On Aug. 31, I participated in a Patxi's pizza, beer, and wine pairing. Let me tell you, I love pizza and beer! I love pizza and wine! I especially love those things for free.
The whole event was what I imagined being on an episode of Check, Please! must feel like—as in, the intense conversations about food and beverages at restaurants. When I was broke, lonely and up too late, living in Chicago, I watched that show all the time. Then, the first time I went to Patxi's, what do they happen to be filming? Check, Please! Bay Area! You can see my cameo on my favorite show here, at the 1:21 mark. Yes, I am stuffing my face—but with a fork! I don't know what possessed me to pick up a fork to eat pizza; that never happens, even if it is the instant mess known as Chicago-style. On that fateful night in July, I had a Daiya cheese, spinach, and mushroom-stuffed pizza with Sierra Nevadas. Fullness and contentment to the max!
The second time I went to Patxi's, it was to take part in these pairings. Also in attendance were Raj Irukulla and Meredith Arthur of Chow, Amy Sherman of Cooking with Amy, Personal Sommelier Courtney Chochran and Laiko Bahrs of Patxi's Pizza and coordinator of the night. I went in all, "I like pizza and beer, yum," and very quickly felt like a college freshman in a class with seniors. However, I faced my intimidation and ate, drank, even offered some insight (very much to the tune of "pizza, wine, beer, YUM!").
First vegan pizza! Thin crust with Daiya and tomatoes.
Second vegan pizza! Chicago-style deep dish with Daiya, olives, artichoke hearts, spinach, red bell peppers, mushrooms, garlic, and red onions.
The wines we drank included zinfandel, cabernet sauvingnon, pinot noir, and sauvignon blanc. The beers included Widmer hefeweizen, Sweetgrass APA, New Dogtown pale ale, and Bud Light.
I concluded that:
- Pinot noir doesn't go with pizza or me
- Zinfandel and cabernet are so very tasty, but too strong for pizza
- Sauvignon blanc pairs incredibly with spinach salad
- Sweetgrass APA tastes very similar to Sierra Nevada, is therefore delicious and now my new favorite beer. That means it goes with all foods, all occasions
- Hefenweizen and pale ales are not my thing and do not go with anything, ever, not even lemons (Sierra Nevada doesn't count, as it's darker than a typical Pale Ale)
And, now, I know you are going to think I'm crazy, but Bud Light goes really well with Chicago-style pizza. The entire table agreed! (We also had sampled all of the libations and eaten a lot at the point that the Bud Light was served). Its lightness compliments the flavors of the pizza and doesn't weigh one down as much as a fuller-bodied/calorie-dense beer.
I learned that I like light beer with pizza. Plus I can totally pack more pizza in my stomach that way. Although, if someone else is buying, I'll drink whatever is in front of me and it will be just fine!
Laiko emailed the group's (vegan-relevant) conclusions:
- Zinfandel was great with the extra-thin-crust pizzas
- Sauvignon blanc was a nice pairing with cheese or Daiya extra-thin-crust pizzas, light on toppings
- Cabernets and pinots competed with the tomato sauce and deep-dish flavors
- Beer paired well with spicier pizza
- Turns out Bud Light is great with deep-dish with lots of toppings
What do you guys think? What are your favorite adult beverages to pair with pizza?
Perfection! Pizza, wine, and a loose crayon. My pizza fell face flat on my plate as it was being served, but I was all "No problem here!"

What should I do if my child chips a tooth or knocks one loose?
Jane Shaw
If your child is learning to walk or negotiate stairs, he may fall on his face quite a bit. So it's possible that a tooth could be knocked out of place in the process. Happily, it will usually spring back into place by itself.
However, if a tooth does become loose through a fall, visit your dentist so she can check for any underlying damage. A tooth may be jammed up into the gum line or loosened and needs to be repositioned or even removed. This may sound drastic, but your dentist may decide to remove it so that your child doesn't choke on it if it falls out later.
If the damage happens outside normal opening hours, your dentist will have emergency cover. Phone the surgery to find out the number to call.
Over a longer period, the damaged tooth may become discoloured, or darker. This is not usually a problem, apart from the way it looks, but ask your dentist to make sure there is no cause for concern. A tooth that has been injured may not show signs of infection early on, but may cause symptoms later. Check your child's teeth regularly when you brush them.
If your child's tooth has been knocked out, and you have found the tooth, take him to the dentist. However, if you can't find the tooth, and your child is having difficulty breathing, take him to your nearest accident and emergency department. He may need an X-ray to make sure he hasn't inhaled the tooth.
If your child's gums start to bleed, pack them with a piece of wet gauze and hold pressure on it for a few minutes, or until the bleeding stops. An ice-cube tied securely in a flannel and held on your child's gum can limit the swelling. A frozen tube of yoghurt or sugar-free ice lolly works just as well and takes your child's mind off the pain.
For the next few days give your toddler soft foods, such as mashed potato. If he's in pain, you can also give him the correct dose of infant paracetamol or ibuprofen. But always check the packet or ask your doctor or pharmacist if you are unsure of the correct dose.
Over the following week, watch for signs of infection, such as fever, or swelling and tenderness. Call the dentist immediately if you think your child's gums are infected.

Dr. Elizabeth "Eli" Barnes is skeptical when a police detective suspects that the antidepressant she helped develop is now causing people to commit murder and suicide. Her disbelief turns to anger when she discovers that Detective Adam Boedecker is not currently active with the police force, but is driven to investigate a grisly murder-suicide in his own family.
Although Linda Castillo's THE SHADOW SIDE engages the reader with anticipatory suspense, few of the plot turns are truly surprising. The scenes of tragedy and mayhem are particularly evocative, and the final heroine-in-danger climax is gripping. These strongly drawn scenes contrast
Setting the story in a pharmaceutical environment is an interesting choice. Although readers get glimpses into the science and bureaucracy of drug research, this is not one of those novels that plunges you into its subject matter. And it is truly difficult to believe that a forceful, savvy woman in a health-oriented career could repeatedly have sex without giving any thought given to protection. (Jul., 384 pp., $5.99)

Some Mormons may think that lowering the age of the LDS Church's female missionaries to 19 from 21 is no big deal. Andrea Radke-Moss, who teaches at Brigham Young University-Idaho, is not one of them.
To Radke-Moss, who teaches history, the move is nothing short of revolutionary — especially given how far the Utah-based faith has come in its approach to "sister missionaries."
Though the LDS Church's missionary effort dates to the start of the Mormon movement in 1830, throughout the entire 19th century there were fewer than 200 females pitching the faith full time, Radke-Moss writes at the Mormon history blog, The Juvenile Instructor.
The Utah-based church called its first full-time single female missionaries in 1898, Radke-Moss writes, "to counter persistent negative stereotypes about Mormon women, especially in the decade of the post-polygamy transition."
The number of female LDS missionaries ebbed and flowed, depending on what was going on in the male world, especially with military duties.
During World War II, some "missions closed and elders were called home," she writes, so sister missionaries "picked up some of the slack."
In 1945, for example, it was the only time the number of sisters outpaced the number of "elders," or male missionaries.
Six years later, the minimum age for women was set at 23. Then, in 1964, it was lowered again to 21, Radke-Moss writes, which allowed some spaces to be filled with women during the Vietnam War, when some Mormon wards were limited to only one proselytizing elder a year.
Next came a period of missionary work for women as a "fallback" if they didn't get married, giving rise to the stereotype of sister missionaries as "wallflowers."
In recent years, Radke-Moss writes, "many young men have actually 'waited for' their sister missionaries prior to marriage. Indeed, being a returned sister missionary is something of a badge of honor."
Indeed, the number of sister missionaries has grown to nearly 20 percent of the whole, or about 10,000.
The latest age change is even more affirming for LDS women.
The message "is clear," Radke-Moss writes. "Sisters are not an addendum or afterthought; they are essential to the program, even irreplaceable. ... This move goes a long way toward demystifying and de-objectifying young women, by increasing opportunities for healthy male-female interaction in a (hopefully) non- or less-sexualized environment."
No matter what motivated the change, she writes, "the implications are endless."

My Brother's Keeper D.C. Data Jam Announced
Cross-posted from ED's My Brother's Keeper website.
The White House, the U.S. Department of Education, and agencies across the U.S. government are leading an effort to address persistent opportunity gaps faced by boys and young men of color, and to ensure that all young people can reach their full potential — the My Brother's Keeper Initiative (MBK).
Georgetown University, in partnership with the Department of Education, is co-hosting a series of Data Jams to bring together developers, designers, entrepreneurs, intrapreneurs, researchers, statisticians, policy makers, educators, and students to create data visualizations of current challenges and build new tools in order to create ladders of opportunity for all youth, including boys and young men of color.
An Invitation
Come join us for the first My Brother's Keeper Data Jam at Georgetown Downtown (640 Massachusetts Ave NW) on Saturday, August 2. We are bringing together a group of practitioners, experts, researchers, students, and educators to study the data and create inventive visualizations of the problems facing the young men and boys of color in our nation.
We hope to convene a diverse group of stakeholders to the MBK Data Jam and would greatly appreciate your sharing this event with anyone you think might be able to provide a unique perspective or add value (be it through expertise, past experiences, or a current skill set).

Yesterday afternoon, President Obama visited the Walker Jones Education Campus in Washington, D.C., to participate in a town hall with youth, and to announce new commitments in support of the My Brother's Keeper Initiative.
As the President said, "We want fewer young men in jail; we want more of them in college. We want fewer young men on the streets; we want more in the boardrooms. We want everybody to have a chance to succeed in America. And it's possible if we've got the kind of team that we set up today."
Watch President Obama answer questions during the town hall:
In February, as part of his plan to make 2014 a year of action focused on expanding opportunity for all Americans, the President unveiled the My Brother's Keeper Initiative to address persistent opportunity gaps faced by boys and young men of color and ensure that all young people can reach their full potential.
The Administration is doing its part by identifying programs and policies that work, and recommending action that will help all our young people succeed. Since the launch of My Brother's Keeper, the President's Task Force has met with and heard from thousands of Americans, through online and in-person listening sessions, who are already taking action.
Now, leading private sector organizations announced independent commitments that further the goals of the My Brother's Keeper initiative and directly address some of the key recommendations in the Task Force Report. These commitments include:
- The NBA, the National Basketball Players Association, and the National Basketball Retired Players Association announced a five-year commitment in partnership with MENTOR: The National Mentoring Partnership, Team Turnaround, and the Council of Great City Schools. The partnership will focus on recruiting new mentors and work with educators in at-risk schools to provide incentive programs that increase attendance and improve overall school performance.
- AT&T announced an $18 million commitment to support mentoring and other education programs with a mentoring component.
- Becoming A Man (B.A.M.) and Match tutoring programs announced $10 million in new funding to expand to 3-5 new cities over the next three years and support a large-scale study on the programs' long-term effects.
- Along with their partners from Silicon Valley and elsewhere, the Emerson Collective, founded by Laurene Powell Jobs, will collaborate with districts and educators to launch a competition to find and develop the best designs for next generation high schools. Together, they will contribute $50 million for this effort.
- Citi Foundation is making a three-year, $10 million commitment to create ServiceWorks, a national program to help 25,000 young people in ten cities across the U.S. develop skills they need to prepare for college and careers.
- Yesterday, the leaders of 60 of the largest school systems in the country, which collectively educate nearly three million of America's male students of color, have joined in an unprecedented pledge to change life outcomes of boys and young men of color by better serving these students at every stage of their education.
- The College Board is investing more than $1.5 million for "All In," a national College Board program to ensure that 100 percent of African American, Latino, and Native American students with strong AP potential enroll in at least one matched AP class before graduation.
- Discovery Communications will invest more than $1 million to create an original independent special programming event to educate the public about issues related to boys and men of color and address negative public perceptions of them.

Know It 2 Own It: Celebrating the Americans with Disabilities Act
This week, we celebrate the 24th anniversary of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). On July 26, 1990, President George H.W. Bush signed the ADA into law. This landmark legislation was the nation's first comprehensive civil rights law addressing the needs of people with disabilities. It prohibited discrimination in employment, public services, public accommodations, and telecommunications.
Earlier this year, during a speech commemorating the 50th anniversary of the Civil Rights Act, President Obama said, "For history travels not only forwards; history can travel backwards, history can travel sideways. And securing the gains this country has made requires the vigilance of its citizens. Our rights, our freedoms — they are not given. They must be won. They must be nurtured through struggle and discipline, and persistence and faith."
The President's words also ring true for the disability community and the ADA.
Over the next year, we will be posting monthly blogs featuring people who participated in and led the disability rights movement, as well as young adults and students working to make a difference in their communities. Together, we carry the torch forward. When we know our history, we can own our rights. As we often say, to know it is to own it.
During this time, we encourage you, your friends, and your family to learn about the disability rights movement. We want to hear from you. Please let us know how you are working to bring about positive change in your community by sharing your story on social media with the hashtag #know2own.

The Civil Rights Act at 50: Arne Duncan at Howard University
The Civil Rights Act of 1964 laid the groundwork for a much broader mission to fulfill the American promise of equal opportunity – and that is why it is not just part of our history but part of our future.
Students of color have made enormous gains since 1964. And yet the rising significance of education in the global economy has made America's remaining achievement gaps so much more consequential.
In 1964, fewer than half of young black adults completed four years of high school; in 2012, about 70 percent of black students graduated from high school on time.
Yet despite that and other progress, it's still not enough to fulfill the promise of the Civil Rights Act. America today still has serious achievement gaps and opportunity gaps.
Since 1991, all regions of the nation have experienced an increase in the percentage of black students who attend highly-segregated schools, where 90 percent of more of students are students of color. Millions of students today lack the opportunity to benefit from attending racially diverse schools. Disproportionate discipline extends to preschool.
America needs the abilities and talents of all its children to succeed and thrive. Our children, and our nation, deserve no less.
A year after the Civil Rights Act was signed into law, President Lyndon Johnson spoke at Howard University, saying that freedom alone is not enough to fulfill the rights set forward in the Act.
Johnson told the Howard audience that "you do not wipe away the scars of centuries" of discrimination and bring a person "up to the starting line of the race and then say, 'you are free to compete with all the others,' and still justly believe that you have been completely fair." He continued, "The next and more profound stage of the battle for civil rights" is not "just to open the gates of opportunity. All our citizens must have the ability to walk through those gates."
On Tuesday, July 15, at Howard, Secretary Arne Duncan reflected on why civil rights issues remain urgent today at an event to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the Civil Rights Act.
Joined by Attorney General Eric Holder, Secretary Duncan talked about the progress America has made, and explained why education is the civil rights issue of our time. Watch the speech or read the transcript.

U.S. Supreme Court Hosts "Let's Read! Let's Move!" Event — An Historic First
The second Let's Read! Let's Move! session of this summer took place at the U.S. Supreme Court on July 16. It was the first time the literacy and enrichment event was held at the historic location.
With the Capitol dome as the backdrop, students from Washington, D.C.-area schools exited their yellow school buses, squinting as they peered in awe at the massive columns of the Supreme Court. Students hailed from William Paca Elementary School, St. Philips Child Development Center, the Metropolitan Day School, the United Planning Organization, and Judith P. Hoyer Montessori School.
A young girl got into the Let's Move! spirit, counting as she climbed the steps to the courtroom, "…35, 36, 37, 38—wow!" Extending their arms towards the ceiling to take in the size of the vast space in the Great Hall under the rotunda, children peeked into the courtroom on their way to the East conference room.
Secretary Arne Duncan, joined by Marshal of the U.S. Supreme Court Pamela Talkin, and U.S. Secretary of Health and Human Services Sylvia Burwell, read Marshall the Courthouse Mouse: A Tail of the Supreme Court. Phrases from the book, such as "voting unani-MOUSE-ly," generated laughs from everyone in the room.
Secretary Burwell kneeled with the children to show the illustrations in the books and to point out that each page had hidden turtles—symbols of longevity, and the slow, yet deliberate pace of justice.
During the question-and-answer session, a child asked, "Why is the courthouse so pretty?" Talkin explained, "It is made to look special so every citizen understands how important the law is, as [the law] covers everyone from children to grown-ups, protecting our rights. It is a beautiful building because it does a beautiful thing, and we have a system that works."
Energetic shrieks could be heard as the Let's Move! activities commenced in the courtyard with joyful children participating in Supreme Court-themed activities emphasizing teamwork.
Children participated in the Scales of Justice Bean Bag Balance, the Majority Rules and Statute Stackers Relay Race, the Bill of Rights Frenzy, and they "exercised" their rights with the YMCA's Physically Healthy and Driven program volunteers.
When I asked some students about their favorite part of the event, many responded, "Having the book read out loud." In the courtyard, a student shrieked, "I found the turtles!" Sure enough, under the antique lamp posts were turtle sculptures.
The summer learning continued as interns, YMCA volunteers, and ED staff entered the courtroom for a lecture about the judicial functions of the Supreme Court and the building's history.
The next two Let's Read! Let's Move! events will be held on July 23 and July 30.

John Stossel Green tyranny and green mythology
I love trees and animals.
But you can love nature and still hate the tyranny that environmental regulations bring.
The Environmental Protection Agency just announced it will boost gas prices ("only" a penny, although industry says 6 to 9 cents) to make another minuscule improvement to air quality.
In New York City, my mayor wants to ban Styrofoam cups, saying, "I think it's something we can do without."
Congress already dictates the design of our cars, toilets and light bulbs.
Originally, environmental rules were a good thing. I love the free market, but it doesn't offer a practical remedy to pollution. I could sue polluters for violating my property rights, but under our legal system, that's not even close to practical.
So in the '70s, government passed rules that demanded we stop polluting the air and water. Industry put scrubbers in smokestacks. Towns installed sewage treatment. Now the air is quite clean, and I can swim in the rivers around Manhattan.
But government didn't stop there. Government never stops. Now that the air is cleaner, government spends even more than it spent to clean the air to subsidize feeble methods of energy production, like windmills and solar panels. Activists want even more spending. A few years back, the Center for American Progress announced it was upset that "Germany, Spain and China Are Seizing the Energy Opportunity ... the United States Risks Getting Left Behind."
In this case, we're better off "left behind." After spending billions, those European governments made no breakthroughs, and now they're cutting back.
The Endangered Species Act was another noble idea. We all want to save polar bears. But now the bureaucrats make it almost impossible for some people to improve their own property.
Louisiana landowner Edward Poitevent wants to build homes and offices north of Lake Pontchartrain. He could provide safe high-ground housing to people eager to move away from areas that were flooded during Hurricane Katrina. But he is not allowed to build because the government decided 1,500 acres of his land should become a preservation area for a threatened species called the dusky gopher frog. None of these frogs currently live on his property. Poitevent told me, "The Fish and Wildlife Service has certified that the frog has not been seen in the state of Louisiana since 1967."
Fish and Wildlife Service officials said they were "not available" to talk with me about this. Instead, they posted a video on YouTube that says they work "with" landowners: "The Service has many voluntary partnership-based programs that can provide technical and financial assistance to manage species."
That sounds nice, but the government's handbook on how to work with them is an onerous 315 pages long.
The environmentalists so torment those who resist their schemes that some landowners tell each other, "If you find an endangered species, shoot, shovel and shut up!" That's mostly a joke. But it does happen, and it's one more way government regulations backfire.
Throughout the world, most reductions in pollution have been achieved because of capitalism, not government control.
Fracking for natural gas reduced greenhouse gas emissions.
Even much-hated coal and oil provide benefits. Science writer Matt Ridley says, "Burning of fossil fuels is helping the rainforest in the Amazon to grow."
Ridley also points out modern industrial farming allows people to grow more food on less land, and so people cut down fewer trees. "New England used to be 70 percent farmland - it's now 70 percent forest."
You can even see the difference between areas that get greener and ones that don't from space: The Dominican Republic is noticeably greener than its immediate neighbor, Haiti, mainly because the Dominican Republic uses fossil fuel instead of burning wood from its forests for fuel, as Haiti does.
Industry and technology, not regulations, are humanity's greatest contribution to the environment. Leave people their freedom, and they come up with new, smarter, more efficient and thus cleaner ways of doing things. Stifling that process with regulation isn't "progressive."

With almost two years of being a library card-holding parent of a library card-holding child under my belt, I've gone through a lot of books with my daughter. I thought I'd share some of my - and her - favourites.
A group of books that has been both entertaining and informative is the Doctoddle Medical Texts for Children series. Some highlights include:
Finally, an often overlooked series that I beloved as a youth was the Five Precocious Children books by Enid Stairs. Some of the best are:
I think I started it nine months ago. I can't remember. It's been ages and ages. And now I'm finished. All 981 pages plus 300+ footnotes plus going back to certain points because I can't remember who this character is because he was last mentioned four hundred pages ago and it's six months since I was at that point of the book. Nine months.
And I kind of want to go back to the beginning and start again.
But I won't, because I feel like my head will explode, so I'm going to read something light and fluffy.
My last few university textbooks didn't sell very well, despite all the professors I grabbed by the lapels and threatened to punch unless they made my publications required reading on their courses. So I figured a better get-rich-quick scheme would involve exploiting humanity's narcissism and vanity. I've written a guide book for people who want to be physically attractive, which I plan to sell to ugly and gullible people.
The book's chapters are as follows:
Today is World Book Awareness Day. It is staggering, the number of people who are not aware of the dangers of books. To try and combat this, I have written a leaflet on books, the signs of books and what we can do to avoid them. The contents are listed below; please contact me if you would like a copy.
