Third time lucky for Colm Toibin on Man Booker prize shortlist?
LONDON (Reuters) - Six tales from gold-rush New Zealand to Zimbabwe to the English countryside and elsewhere on the planet were shortlisted for the 2013 Man Booker prize, organizers said on Tuesday.
Two-time Booker nominee and Irish writer Colm Toibin headed a list which also included English writer Jim Crace, Zimbabwean NoViolet Bulawayo, New Zealander Eleanor Catton, Indian/American author Jhumpa Lahiri and Canadian Ruth Ozeki.
"Global in its reach, this exceptional shortlist demonstrates the vitality and range of the contemporary novel at its finest," judging panel chair Robert Macfarlane said.
The 58-year-old Toibin was nominated for "The Testament of Mary", the story of a woman who has lost her son in a cataclysmic event that has led to an overpowering grief.
Crace's "Harvest" tells the tale of outsiders arriving at a village in late summer before a fire at the local manor house leads to punishment, suspicion of witchcraft and something darker at the heart of the story.
It is the first time each of the four female writers has been nominated for the prize.
They count among them a Buddhist priest (Ozeki), a member of U.S. President Barack Obama's Committee on the Arts and Humanities (Lahiri) and the first Zimbabwean writer to make the shortlist (Bulawayo). Eleanor Catton, who will be 28 at the time of the winner announcement, is the youngest on the shortlist.
Macfarlane, an academic, writer and critic said at the press conference to announce the shortlist that the judging panel searched carefully to find originality.
"We looked hard, it took a long time, it was effortful but we found it," he said.
The winner of the 50,000 pound ($78,600) Man Booker prize will be announced on October 15.
Hilary Mantel wrote herself into the history books last year, becoming the first woman and first Briton to win the coveted Man Booker prize for fiction twice with "Bring Up the Bodies", the sequel to her acclaimed "Wolf Hall".

|Um...Ai Yori, Oh! My Goddess, Chocotto_Sister (our good Onii-san), Tokyo University Story, Mahoraba, Chobits (as a ronin trying to get into college)...they're not that hard to find, and lets face it, the HS based shows only deal with actual school work in terms of "can I copy your homework?" and cramming for tests.

AMV's mostly turn me to the music, and I listen to the cd before I decide if its worth it. Most of the time it is, and I find the used cds for $2 or $3.
Wasn't Chobits set in college? And Neia Under seven?
As for AS I like Venture (which happened within the past two weeks)
*cough* Chowder is one of the best shows eva! Its one of the few kids shows i can watch and actually laugh at; along with The marvelous adventures of Flapjack.
Don't know what episode of Family Guy you saw Dillon, but I think you need to watch again. Whats unnatural about a comedy staying a comedy? It's not drama, nor action so it stays a comedy....if its a comedy show i don't expect it to go anywhere else. And don't want it to.
Best moment in the anime life? Watching Luffy spoiler[go Gear 3 ]and Naurto spoiler[loosing control of himself. ][/quote]

Hey, my first email ever to Answerman-- the one that asked about that "feasibility" of the Adultswim schedule-- got answered! Sweet!
A few things I'd like to comment on:
1) Note how I said some of the stuff had to be watched with a half-conscious brain. Don't worry, I have nothing against the Venture Brothers-- while I don't watch it, what I've seen of it seems pretty funny (but if it's so highly recommended by Answerman...hmmmm). The only attractive original shows I've seen have been that, Robot Chicken (though that can be a bit too...much sometimes) and the occasional Family Guy.
2)The anime that was over three years old I was referring to was actually Fullmetal Alcehmist, which was moved to the 10:30 slot central standard time...But yeah, I guess that'd be more of a ratings grabber than Moribito. Who knows? Maybe after another full series run-through, FUNI will finally announce its rights to the then-hopefully-revealed 2nd FMA anime.
3)I guess what I meant by the "feasibility" of a schedule holding up was my somewhat-rhetorically-asking if....well...we'll go through another schedule change in the next few months that might put anime in a somewhat better slot...
4) Yeah, I know how ratings is what deems a show most profittable... still, it sorta stings for this to happen when all [as] seems to have done is rely upon word-of-mouth and sites such as yours truly to get word out about its anime. But then again, the anime I'm complaining about here might've had a very limited pool of potential viewrers in the first place (even something as "mainstream-otaku" as Code Geass is). Aii, the wounds of dissapointment are starting to open again...
5) One more thought: think Nielsen (?) ratings data takes into account show recordings via tivo or windows media center (the latter which I currently have?)
Whew...now to get to finishing that Frankenstein paper for AP World Lit.

Don't forget "Nodame Cantabile," which continues on past college!
But yeah, especially the older I get, the more I become sick of everyone in anime being 15, even when it makes no sense whatsoever for them to be 15 (this my only complaint about Gankutsuou, for example).

Ah the souless subway commute. I chuckled at some anime I was watching on my ipod and got screamed at by a crazy guy for it.
Even a good deal of the outside Shonen Jump titles star high school students, even if they never seem to go to class.

Hey jak kaj,
Check out something by Naoki Urasawa. Monster is almost completely out from Viz, but they'll be starting to bring out 20th Century Boys and Pluto in February. Granted, those are manga series (so maybe they don't work in the TV/Movie side of things), but the anime adaptation of Monster is also incredibly well-done (in my opinion, of course). I can't say it's better or on par with The Wire, as I've never seen the show, but if you're interested in well-written series, I think Urasawa's stuff takes the cake.
...Now I want to check out The Wire! =D

I know this is an anime site but I'm still a bit surprised how one sided it all was. If you wanted to compare anime to just American animation, I would definitely agree that anime had the upper hand. Even if it was solely TV anime would at least be in the ballpark. However, if we are comparing it to the entire world of American TV and movies then anime just can't compete.
Now I should preface this by saying that really, in both cases, the vast majority is utter crap. On both sides there is a ton of repetitive, idiotic, pointless, unfunny, uninteresting, poorly written, garbage (the list goes on). I don't really see the point in comparing the crappy stuff though. After all, who cares about it? It's crap. If we're going to talk about which is better, we ought to talk about the stuff that might actually be decent enough to merit watching. If you actually look at the good stuff instead of wallowing in the endless pits of crap trying to decide which is the lesser to two evils, I think American TV and movies just have so much more there. There are a lot of great anime. There are really only a couple that I could put up there along side a dozen or so of the all time greats in American TV and movies though.
P.S. Go Team Venture!

It's set in a school for those who are trying to get into college but failed their exams the first time round.
I think there are a decent amount of series out there with older characters, though not necessarily in college/university. NANA has an older cast, and a few of the characters are still in school (though they don't get shown that much in later volumes/episodes). I've recently been enjoying series set out in the working world, like the manga Suppli or the Hataraki Man series (though that one didn't move fast enough for my tastes).
As for Answerfans, I think if you just compare animated shows, than anime is superior. But when you look at North American television as a whole, alongside anime and Japanese live action (I'm not as familiar with the latter, but I think it should be included so as to not be unfair to anime), then they are about the same. There is a lot of crap in each, and a lot of really good stuff in each too.
Though I do agree having a finite beginning and ending does give some anime an advantage and has something I wish more North American shows would do, but that just doesn't fit with the model of television and advertising and such, probably.

I'm glad that this question was taken this week, I also asked a similar question, but at least one of us got this answered.
That said, the ratings data that I've seen over the course of several weeks now runs contradictory to the idea that it's all about poor ratings for shows like Code Geass and Moribito. The past few weeks Geass or Bleach has been on top, and the Saturday ratings are pretty low to begin with. The comedy reruns at the start haven't been able to do any better than anime of late, so adding more just for ratings' sake seems not to jive with what's really going on.

I've yet to be to an anime convention, so I guess I've missed out on the odd trend of people cosplaying as Marlo Thomas -- but it's likely that I just misunderstood something.
As for AMVs - I doubt we'll ever see an anime company make too much noise. I would think the outcry would be from people who are looking on YouTube for a favorite band's video and keep coming up with fansubbed Naruto vids loosely edited to fit the music and credits that run almost as long as the song itself.

My proudest and happiest moment as an Anime fan?
That's easy; when I finished watching the first four episodes of Code Geass. I was in a state of frenzy, and that's when I knew that Anime could truly, truly deliver another intelligent story and anti-hero protagonist. Finally, I had proof that Death Note was not just an aberration. Finally, I had hard evidence that Anime was not just "Japanese cartoons" and something to embarrassed about watching. It could actually be a gripping study of mature themes that the uninitiated don't expect from "cartoons". It could actually be as good as anything the Americans could put out.
I had suspected, I had hoped, but I never had solid proof. Until that moment.

I'm pretty sure they're still in high school in ParaKiss (senior year); maybe you're thinking of Nana?
Oh and I suppose I should state that the whole "anime vs. American TV" is a stupid debate; anime vs American cartoons is a more accurate comparison, and even there it's a mixed bag. The best anime is better than the worst American shows, and the best American shows are better than the worst anime. Silly debate, really.
And I love a well-done AMV. There are a number of anime series I would not have watched (and, in some cases, purchased) if it hadn't been for seeing an awesome AMV ("Euphoria," anyone?). I don't think they hurt companies at all; they're free publicity.

I'm not sure why AS expects people to tune in to Moritbito or Geass when there was no effort made to tell anyone that the shows were even on the air. Neither show got any advertising, aside from brief mentions on between-show bumps. If moving the shows to 5 is what they have to do to preserve their ratings, fine, but why do they think the shows are going to magically take off if the majority of potential viewers have no idea they even exist? Seems like these shows were doomed from the start.
Of course there's no guarantee that even with a big ad blitz, the shows would have seen any success -- but they could at least TRY.

Myth #2: Microsoft is building an ESB with their "Indigo" project.
Microsoft's Indigo combines Microsoft's Messaging Queuing, its Component Object Model COM+, .NET, and Web services. What they are building is a message bus with Web services extensions. This is very different from an enterprise bus. A messaging bus exposes the details of lower-level messaging techniques and requires the writing of code to define the relationships between applications and services. The mantra of the ESB is configuration rather than coding, which removes the necessity of hardwiring relationships between interconnected applications. An ESB facilitates and promotes the use of loose coupling between applications, which are exposed through the bus as event-driven services. The good news here is that applications built on Indigo will at least be message based and therefore easier to integrate through an ESB.
That said, there are elements of the BizTalk Server that, correctly combined with Indigo, could start to look like an ESB. However, there is one missing element in the formula, in that BizTalk is still a hub-and-spoke integration broker and is subject to all of the caveats mentioned in the ESB versus EAI discussion. You can't split out the XML transformation engine from the rest of the BizTalk Server and expect to run it as a load-balanced service across multiple machines without incurring the cost and overhead of the entire Biztalk Server (see the previous discussion on EAI vs. ESB).
Myth #3: The adoption of WS-* specifications, such as WS-Reliability and WS-Reliable Messaging, obviate the need for an ESB.
An ESB should be designed to accommodate these evolving specifications as they become mature and achieve commercial viability. Evolving WS-* specifications will help make application endpoints more interoperable through an ESB.
As part of the evolving standards process of Web services specifications, there exists much uncertainty due to the many overlapping efforts underway. As these specifications mature and achieve widespread adoption, they will still require an infrastructure to support them. An ESB can provide a consistent model for building, orchestrating, and managing SOAs, while insulating the IT organization from changes in underlying interoperability standards.
A WS-Reliability implementation requires that there be an industry-proven reliable message persistence and store-and-forward processor to support it. A foundational component of an ESB is an enterprise messaging layer that provides quality of service of message delivery through messaging conventions such as message persistence, store- and-forward delivery, message acknowledgements, and interfaces with external XA-compliant transaction managers. The ESB implementation may also provide transparent routing of messages across sophisticated network topologies, and continuous availability of the messaging infrastructure through a fault-tolerant messaging server architecture. The science of making all of this work together to ensure reliability under high-stress enterprise environments requires many person-years of effort to get right.
That being said, ESBs that are implemented today using a proprietary messaging layer should also adopt one or more of the WS-Rel* as additional protocols or "on-ramps" for getting on and off the bus. However, it is not a one-size-fits-all solution and many combinations of messaging and protocol support are necessary.

An old post, but worth a small correction. Comparison with competitor products is always dangerous. You need to be very sure of your territory, and unfortunately, although David's description of BizTalk Server has some validity, it isn't 100% accurate. For example, the transformation services absolutely can be invoked separately to the rest of BTS via lightweight services, and load balanced across different boxes. More recent versions of BTS provide pre-built generic WCF and ASMX transformation web services as a courtesy to developers (reduces the need to build custom transformation services). You can use Windows Server AppFabric tools to create BizTalk maps in non-BizTalk projects - e.g., projects that define lightweight transformation services.
David doesn't clearly spell out what he means by 'cost...of the entire BizTalk Server'. If he means licencing cost, then he hits the mark, somewhat. BTS is certainly licensed in a fashion that encourages distribution and load balancing over a small farm of centralized servers, in contrast to the highly distributed approach advocated by Sonic. You can only invoke BTS transformation services on licensed boxes, so from that perspective, he is correct. However, invoking the transformation services does not require loading additional irrelevant BTS plumbing into memory. There is no heavy-weight performance cost imposed by code bloat, or anything like that!
BizTalk maps are emitted as code components containing an executable XSLT resource. You can distribute maps as freely as you wish and invoke the tranforms via code. Obviously, direct invocation in this case assumes the use of either .NET or Mono, although Java/.NET bridges could be used. If you use BizTalk Server's mapping tools to create maps, you may end up with a dependency on BizTalk-specific scripted components invoked in the XSLT, which ties you to licensed BizTalk Boxes. However, it is pretty easy to avoid this if you wish.
One thing Sonic has which BizTalk really does not is dynamic management of code deployment into the run-time environment. BizTalk Server has an built-in code repository, but this is simply a mechanism for managing and storing compiled artifacts and resources for the purpose of exporting installation packages. You still have to manually install those packages or deploy them via additional script. Frankly, though, this is rarely a significant drawback. The types of solution built using BizTalk Server tend to warrant close attention to managing dynamic deployment across a distributed environment using other frameworks and tools, and BizTalk Server plays well with the relevant frameworks. There is even a community-built deployment framework specifically designed for BizTalk Server.

(This same feedback also posted to another WSJ article about ESBs)
I agree in that the ESB concept is over-hyped. For me, a SOA makes sense if it is viewed as a constellation of web services interacting among them. For this, something like a UDDI server is required for each service locating each other.
For me, all this (i.e. services + directory) is just enough if only synchronous communications are used. If asynchronous communications are needed, then you need also publish/subscribe and store-and-forward, i.e. roughly what a MOM does. You can call it an ESB if you want, although I think this concept in the market encompasses several roles:
An interesting thing to note is to implement points 1. and 2. you do *not* need business logic, while to implement 3. and 4. you do.
As I said, I see roles 1 and 2 required in SOAs with asynchronous interactions.
Roles 3 and 4 are also needed in many cases, mainly for integrating disparate systems. However, my main point against an ESB is that, in order to perform these roles, you do *NOT* need of a new, special concept like the ESB. *Any* service in the constellation of services can perform both routing and transformation. It can range from being a single component like an ESB (which I think is a bad idea), or it can just be a set of services (e.g. a different service performing specific adaptation for a system being integrated).
For me, using a single ESB for 3. and 4. breaks the beauty of the SOA idea. You are supposed to made all your data and business logic of your organization available as services in order to be reused, and suddenly you put on top an ESB in which you put *more* business logic (routing and transformation). So my point is that this should be implemented just by means of regular services, and not by specific, central-piece new components called ESBs.
Now, if for implementing routing and transformation you want to use Tibco, WebSphere or whatever, fine - however, the logic created by these products should be at the same level as the other services in the SOA, and not above.
So I am not saying that orchestrating tools are not useful. They are. Only, they are not *imprescindible*; and at any rate they should be viewed just as more services in the SOA. However, this does not fit the marketing strategy of ESB vendors which show its ESB as an *enabler* of a SOA, instead of just one more *component* of it.
|Dave Chappell 02/03/05 09:54:43 PM EST
We (Sonic Software) didn't re-lable our product to support the ESB wave, we actually invented the concept. We then worked with the analyst and journalist community to help create industry awareness of the new concepts that are introduced by ESB, which has resulted in a whole new product category.
I would agree with you that there is a great deal of hype right now due to lack of understanding of what ESB is, which is compounded by the number of traditional middleware and EAI vendors who have clamoured to get ESB in their marketing literature without having a full understanding of what it means to have an ESB. Your comment about middleware with new clothes is well taken. You might get that impression depending on where you learned about what an ESB is. That is exactly what I am trying to point out with myth #1 in this article.
A certain amount of hype is expected when a technology category begins to take hold and gain traction within serious IT projects. This can be disruptive to the industry as a whole. This is also the primary reason why I wrote the OReilly book on the subject of ESB--to act as the definitive guide to help educate and provide clarity on what makes up an ESB. Please don't shoot the concept of ESB down until you have had a chance to understand it.
|Larry 02/03/05 04:15:19 AM EST
Not surprising that the representative of a company who over-hyped ESB in the first place, and relabeled their own product ESB to catch the service wave, should now try to claim that anyone who saw through the hype is guilty of spreading myths.

The security devil is always in the details of the attack: the ones you've endured, the ones you prepare yourself to fend off, and the ones that, you fear, will catch you completely unaware and defenseless. The Internet of Things (IoT) is nothing if not an endless proliferation of details. It's the vision of a world in which continuous Internet connectivity and addressability is embedded into a growing range of human artifacts, into the natural world, and even into our smartphones, appliances, and physical persons.

A 14-year-old boy from Scotland has died while on a hiking trip with his father in Western Australia's northwest.
The teenager, who arrived in the country in mid-December, became dehydrated while walking along Badjirrajirra Creek, about 20km south of Exmouth, yesterday.
He collapsed about four hours into the hike with little water or shade. Temperatures in the region were well above 40 degrees Celsius.
Police say they responded to emergency calls from the boy's father, a 49-year-old Geraldton man, only to find the pair about 700m down a gully near the Badjirrajirra car park.
Officers carried the boy to the car park and performed CPR.
He was rushed to Exmouth Hospital by ambulance but died early last night.

'The Cove' seeks change with graphic view of dolphin slaughter
Director Louie Psihoyos talks about his film "The Cove," which won the Golden Space Needle award for best documentary at the Seattle International Film Festival. The film is about a cove on the Japanese coast where for generations residents have survived by killing and processing dolphins. It opens Aug. 7 for a regular run.
Special to The Seattle Times

Waiting for "Inception" NEW - 7/09, 12:15 PM
Rarely does an investigative documentary have such immediate impact that it results in observable change.
Errol Morris' "The Thin Blue Line" (1988) was one such film. By proving the innocence of a death-row inmate, it led directly to his exoneration.
Louie Psihoyos claims that his nonfiction thriller, "The Cove," is responsible for mercury-tainted dolphin flesh being pulled from Japanese school lunches.
"You can draw a straight line from this movie being made to no schoolchildren now being served toxic dolphin," he said when he brought the movie to the Seattle International Film Festival. It won the Golden Space Needle for best documentary and returns Friday for a regular run.
Of course, Psihoyos would like to do more. Like outlawing the slaughter of dolphins that are routinely lured into a picturesque cove on the Japanese coast. For generations, its residents have survived by killing and processing dolphins, and they're fiercely protective of their right to do so.
"We did our part," said Psihoyos. "That's the power of film. It can really change people."
Stopping off on his way back from the Cannes Film Festival, where "directors are celebrated like rock stars," he said he'd sold the film to more than a dozen countries. He sees its success as part of a larger environmental story.
"It's not just about the cove, it's about what we're doing to the bigger oceans," he said. Several years ago, Psihoyos and his diving buddy, Jim Clark, founded the Oceanic Preservation Society, partly because they were alarmed at the levels of pollution.
"We've been watching as we go back to the same diving places, and we see less and less fish, more bleaching, more problems with the oceans," he said. "We're fouling our own nests. We thought someone ought to do something about it. We decided to make a film about what was going on."
For years, he worked as a photographer for National Geographic magazine, specializing in "really unpopular stories, things that were really 'unphotographable,' and I tried to make them interesting."
He went through a similar process as a nonfiction movie director, searching for a narrative to emerge. Eventually he hired a writer, Mark Monroe, who helped bring out what Psihoyos regards as the "Ocean's Eleven" heist-movie elements.
"With a documentary, as a director, you're really just finding the story," he said. "How much can you direct? If you work in conjunction with a writer, you can do quite a bit. We had 600 or 700 hours of footage that had to be whittled down to 90 minutes, and we had a lot of stories going on."
One dealt with overfishing, another with mercury poisoning, another with dolphin hunting, another with whaling. He sees his job as "putting these into a context without simplifying it too much. I think the media really try to dumb down stories, to make it too simple for people.
"But the American public can handle it. People want complexity, they want to see the gray areas, and that's what we try to do in this movie. You try to harness the best ideas and get everybody going in the same direction."
Psihoyos said he tried to be fair to the cove's residents and lawmakers and present their point of view.
"At a meeting at the mayor's office, they said, 'We treat the dolphins like our relatives,' " Psihoyos said. "I thought they were telling the truth.
"But after two days of negotiations, [the mayor] said we can't protect you if you try to get near the cove. I had no idea what kind of horrors were in that cove. Nobody had a clue. I'm still sort of in shock."
He ended up with hours of graphic footage of his crew defying the dolphin killers and filming the slaughter. Only about two minutes of it ended up in the film.
"Sitting through that footage," he said, "was the hardest month of my life. It reduced the audience to tears at Sundance."
Psihoyos has taken to heart the film's environmental message. He installed a solar system on his roof, he owns two electric cars, and he claims he hasn't paid for oil or gasoline for more than a year.
Scared off by his doctor, who told him he had unacceptably high levels of mercury in his system, Psihoyos is now much more careful about his diet.
"Right now I can safely say, there's very little I'm doing, while I'm at home anyway, to cause an influx of mercury."
As for the dolphin killers, he sees no immediate relief.
"I hope they have the weight of humanity descend on them, in a massive form," he said.

Emma Meston - Art director and jewel designer, founder of Ikone Paris
in Women
Emma Meston is the owner of Icone Paris. From a very young age, Emma, whose father sold antics, was fascinated by ancient extremely refined objects. She immersed herself in different cultures and traditions through countless trips in the world. Fascinated by women's ornaments and beauty, she decided to make a living out of her lifelong passion. She launched her first brand Almaya Marceau, revealing to the public what she has imagined for years: baroque and sensual jewelry made with metal lace. She is the creator of this very special know-how which became quickly renowned in the luxury industry.
In 2003, she developed jewels for Christian Lacroix's haute couture fashion shows. She also created limited edition lines of jewelry for Caron. Nike placed a special order and jewelry shoes were exposed in the VO gallery for the Parisian retro-basket event. In 2006 Chivas asked her to customize their vintage bottle. Her work was exhibited for several years in the best Palaces of Paris such as the Ritz, the Crillon and the George V four Seasons hotels. Her favorite piece, her icone, is a tiara-crown representing French craftsmanship. It was exposed in the fashion week in Milan and appeared twice at the Cannes Film Festival.
Two years after its creation, she was present in more than fourty prestigious places around the world. She chose however to return to a more personal way to meet clients and be in tune with their wishes especially for women preparing their wedding. Through Ikone Paris Emma's ambition today is to reveal the best of and sublimate women. She also works closely with personnal shoppers, and is still referenced and suggested in the nicest palaces for the quality of her service.

Travel Today - Peninsula Paris
in Travel
This week, Peter Greenberg Worldwide broadcasts from all-new The Peninsula Paris, but don't let "new" fool you—The Peninsula Paris is located in a late 19th century classic Haussmanian building, which first opened as one of Paris' most luxurious "grands hotels" in 1908. It's been a hospital, a military headquarters and the hotel that inspired George Gershwin to write An American in Paris.
The hotel has all the amazing (and expected) Peninsula touches, a great Chinese restaurant, and a real bonus: one of the greatest hotel rooftop bars in the world. From there, you can see every major Paris monument. Impressive by day….spectacular at night. Like my other favorite hotel, the Peninsula in Shanghai, the Paris version does it right.
Joining Peter Greenberg this week are Pauline Wong Lemasson from the American Library in Paris, with the secrets of the city of light and the story of this remarkable library; Alec Lobrano, author of Hungry for Paris, who describes surprise food finds in Paris (great dim sum?) and gives his advice for making the most of a trip to Paris. Isabelle Garnerone, founder and editor of Edgar, describes the palace hotels of Paris. Also joining us is Roger Dow, President and CEO of the U.S. Travel Association, who shares his predictions on next year's exciting U.S. travel trends. All of this and more on this week's broadcast of Peter Greenberg Worldwide from the Peninsula Paris.

We Are the Best! 2013
This year keeps surprising me. Now we've had two awesome films about musicians who refuse to fit in with the image at the time and featuring characters named Klara (the other of course being Frank).
We Are the Best! is a wonderful film. It's an ode to punk, yes, but it's also an ode to childhood, growing up, and being an outcast in general. It's the ultimate coming of age film, where the child characters are being portrayed as actual…
Lux: Redux 2014
Why anyone would want to remake Lux is beyond me, but it worked out really well.
Instead of just shooting a candle, it shoots a candle AND THEN GOES FUCKIN' MENTAL.
Put in a two minute trance and visually was beautiful.
I liked it.

At least give it a rating.
But I don't get it.
Was it good?
Would you recommend it?
I don't know.
How does that work?
I don't know.
Just give it 2 1/2 or something.
I can't.
Because it's good.
Then what's the issue?
I don't know.
For fuck's sake.
I don't understand it. It confused me.

Former Florida College Student Planned Attack
Story By: Larry Stine
|Email Story to Friend
|Original Published: 3/19/2013Police say former University of Central Florida student James Oliver Seevakumaran was found in his dorm room dead after an apparent suicide. Ed Payne tells us what happened and police found when they searched his room. Police says 30-yar-old James Seevakumaran pulled a fire alarm, possibly to draw people out in the open. Then, went back to his room to arm himself, where he pulled a gun on his roommate. The roommate ran into a bathroom and called 911. When police arrived, they found the gunman dead. As they gathered evidence, they found a handgun, an assault rifle, hundreds of rounds of ammunition and a a backpack with homemade bombs. They also found clues about what he was doing. "We found some notes and some writings that indicated that this was a planned attack. This individual had laid out a timeline and laid out some of what we feel were going to be his actions," said University of Central Florida Police Chief Richard Beary. Students were evacuated from their dorm. Some say they were left in the dark. "The way they handled it was like, kinda disappointing. It started off as a fire alarm, and no one said that there was something else going on with the bomb and the shooting," said Antoinette Thompson, a dorm resident. Authorities say in his timeline, Seevakumaran had written he would, quote, "give them hell." Luckily, it did not turn out as he planned. "It could have been a very bad day for everybody here. All things considered I think that we were very blessed here at the University of Central Florida," said Chief Beary. Now, investigators are trying to determine who the gunman planned to attack. Police say Seevakumaran was acting on his own. His only other encounter with police, was a traffic violation.

Newell assures over Left 4 Dead support
The announcement of Left 4 Dead 2 during Microsoft's pre-E3 conference was taken a coup for the Xbox 360, but some members of the game's community disagree; worried as they are that this will mean the end of continuing support for the original game.
Speaking in the wake of a petition against Valve this week, boss man Gabe Newell has said that new content will continue to be released for the seminal survival-horror title.
"From a customer's perspective, we think that given the sort of insane popularity of Left 4 Dead, that people are going to be super excited about getting a sequel to that," Newell told G4.
"We're going to continue to do Left 4 Dead updates and release more content for Left 4 Dead, and then also have Left 4 Dead 2 coming out as well."
20,000 people have so far signed the petition against the sequel, so Valve are clearly keen to head-off this stir.
