Three Thoughts on the ASOR Annual Meeting
November 24, 2014 § 4 Comments
I spent two, busy days at the American Schools of Oriental Research annual meeting last week. It was great to catch up with old friends and spend some time surveying both recent trends in our field and the state of academic conference.
1. Ban Archaeological Site Reports as Conference Papers. I enjoyed most of the papers that I heard last week and invariably learned something from even the most tedious. This is a good thing. At the same time, I got antsy and irritated during archaeological site reports that detailed the results of every trench at a site over the previous one or two field seasons. The level of detail offered in many of these papers made the work difficult to visualize. The absence of clear general research questions (e.g. what are the influences on the development of Cypriot cult in the late Iron Age?) and the preponderance of hyper-specific research questions (e.g. does the north wall continue west?). These questions are interesting, perhaps, from an archaeological perspective, but this rarely translates to an interesting paper.
I recognize, of course, that there is a tradition of these kinds of site reports in archaeology, so I'm not blaming the authors. I also realize that these reports can provide useful updates to the scholarly community, former volunteers and collaborators, and specialists interested in these sites. Moreover, I get that with funding to attend conferences become more competitive, many scholars feel pushed to give papers of dubious academic value just to get funding to attend.
At the same time, I am pretty sure ASOR could publish academic site reports online, perhaps behind a firewall if project's are concerned about the safety of their sites, and eliminate what is far and away the least intellectually rewarding part of the conference while still providing a venue for the dissemination of detailed information. This would allow conference organizers to present a more focused conference with more substantial papers over a shorter period of time. It does not, of course, resolve the issue of scholars who present less than remarkable papers simply to get funding to attend.
2. The Digital Divides. I am becoming more and more alarmed by the divide in archaeology between the digital haves and have nots. As research funding contracts and expenses of fieldwork continue to increase, the presentations documenting significant digital innovation came almost entirely from large, well-funded projects with the backing of large research universities. I recognize that innovation requires funding and that many aspects of this work will "trickle down" into digital tools and technologies available to smaller, more financially ordinary projects, but there was little discussion of how this process will take place or what smaller, less generously funded projects can do to participate in the process of digital innovation (or little discussion that I saw at the panels that I attended).
The digital divide bothered me because so many of the coolest digital projects seemed far from being sufficiently scalable to have a widespread impact on the field. Moreover, some of the data driven digital initiative seem to require the widespread adoption of their complex platforms to assemble the kind of data required to allow for archaeological "big data" initiatives. The truth behind big data in archaeology, however, is that it derives not from technological innovation alone, but through the combination of technology and social networks (of the human kind) to generate the kind of collaboration necessary to produce significant change in the discipline.
The digital divide, then, marks not just the digital "haves" and digital "have nots," but an approach to digital archaeology that continues to privilege innovation over application. As an archaeologist open to digital tools and techniques, I am far more interested in understanding how innovators can provide access to digital tools and support the meaningful adoption of technology to produce significant bodies of data. In other words, I was impressed by the highest of high tech (e.g. virtual archaeology in immersive 3D environments, dynamic bespoke platforms supporting large-scale collaboration between interrelated projects, and sharks with laser beams who could destroy even the most aggressive archaeocyberpirates), I was much hungrier for digital initiative that had significant adoption rates or that produced meaningful results across multiple projects of different scales and resources. It seems to me that the future of digital archaeology is in collaboration and adoption more than innovation.
3. Conferences as Non-Places. Upon returning home, I was shocked to discover that the conference had been in San Diego. The Westin Hotel was fine. The weather was nice from what I could gather from outside the hotel and taxi cab windows (I did notice the absence of blowing snow and sub-zero temperatures).
I recognize that part of this was my fault. I could have planned more time for excursions or at least took a cab to a good local restaurant rather than settling for rather ordinary fare available near the conference hotel. At the same time, I felt significant pressure to use my time wisely, attend as many sessions as possible, and be punctual and engaged at various meetings. By my early morning departure, I realized that the location of the conference was almost completely irrelevant.
The commercial carpeting, Starbucks' coffee, institutional pastries, familiar hotel rooms, and polite staff all made the experience of attending this conference nearly indistinguishable from any other, and made me all the happier to get home.
Friday Varia and Quick Hits
November 21, 2014 § Leave a comment
I'm still hanging out at the American School of Oriental Research annual meeting in sunny and warm San Diego. Unlike some years, I've been able to enjoy a full slate of panels. Yesterday the panel on Maritime Archaeology and Object Biography were particularly thought provoking, and today it looks like I could spend about 6 or 7 hours in panels devoted to the archaeology of Cyprus.
So with the travel and conferencing by quick hits and varia will look a bit thin, but I figure I do owe my readers something!
- Cypro-Minoan tablets from Pyla-Kokkinokremos.
- Assyrian reliefs and 3D imaging.
- Fancy Roman mosaic in Zeugma, Turkey.
- Deserted Greek villages from Kostis Kourelis.
- The quirky and progressive mayor of Thessaloniki.
- Richard Rothaus says go see the Overnighters, a documentary film on Williston, ND and the oil boom.
- You can now read a complete draft of my Tourist Guide online.
- Andrew Reinhard says go and check out Atari: Game Over, a documentary film on digging up Atari games in the Alamogordo desert.
- Forever professors and ageism in academia.
- Think about this next time you use Facebook. For my part, I've switched to Ello.
- Creator of Choose Your Own Adventure dies.
- Thurston Moore's poetry class at Naropa.
- A long review of Neil Young's Pono.
- What I'm reading: Zack Furness, Punkademics: The Basement Show in the Ivory Tower. (2012).
- What I'm listening to: Rolling Stones, Exile on Main Street.
An Unsatisfying Final Chapter to the Tourist Guide of the Bakken
November 20, 2014 § Leave a comment
As I pushed publish on the final chapter to the Tourist Guide to the Bakken Oil Patch, I fretted over two things. First, I lying in bed at the San Diego Westin Hotel on the first fill day of the Annual Meeting of the American Schools of Oriental Research. I should really be blogging about something Cypriot or at least something non-North America. So, I'm promising myself after I post this, I'll get into the proper mood and go forth to enjoy the conference.
Next, I'm profoundly unsatisfied with how this chapter turned out. After a quick trip through the Bakken last week, I noticed that this chapter does not fairly represent the distances between sites (for example Keene and Johnson's Corner). It does not take into account the newly opened (and spectacular) Watford City bypass. And it overlooks truly massive gravel pits along ND Route 23.
So why did I hit publish? Well, part of it is because I wanted to make sure that I followed through a presented the entire draft. I'm going to revise this anyway, so an unsatisfactory version of the manuscript online is tolerable to me. More importantly, however, I enjoyed thinking about how the invisible infrastructure of the Bakken works. The drive east on ND Route 23 from Watford City does not necessarily reveal the complex networks of pipelines that will gradually add to the industrial activity in this area. The occluded nature of certain aspects of the oil boom ranging from pipelines and gravel pits to crime, danger, and social disruption and trace a dark shadow across the Bakken. For the tourist, signs of these systems and problems will be always be obscure, but the routes on the tourist guide hopefully make a few of them more visible.
The next step is to prepare a thorough revision of the guide for proper publication. At the same time, we will work on the revision of a paper for the journal Historical Archaeology which will represent the first scholarly publication of our work.

I.2. Practical Notes on Travel, Roads, and Weather in the Bakken
I.3. Technical Notes and Key Terms about the Bakken

So stay tuned for more Bakkentastic posts here at Archaeology of the Mediterranean World. Now, I have to shift gears and think a bit about Cyprus and the ancient Near East!
Three New Novels
November 19, 2014 § 1 Comment
The State Board of Higher Education, emboldened by the failure of North Dakota Ballot Measure 3, issued a proclamation that no faculty members outside of the English, language or literature programs can read novels, and people in those programs can only read novels directed toward (1) research, (2) classroom activities, or (3) other professional development. Ostensibly, this policy stems from the "pernicious advance of modernism in our universities, communities, and state" but many faculty think it is simply designed to focus our attention on academic pursuits.
Needless to say, this new policy will crimp my summer reading list which I sometimes pepper with so-called "fiction." It will also make long intercontinental and cross-country flights less pleasant. Since it does not come into effect until January 1 and I had a few flights over the last month or so, I decided to take advantage of my last remaining months of free reading.
Here are three novels:
1. William Gibson, The Peripheral (2014). The novel is set in the both the near future (say 20 years from now) and the slightly more distant future (say 100 years from now) and starts with a description of an 1970s Airstream RV winterized with some kind of spray foam. The setting for much of the action in the more distant future is a tricked out Mercedes RV designed for long range trekking across the Gobi desert. The plot is fast-paced, baffling, and interesting enough, but the real power of Gibson's books comes from his sensitivity toward future trends ranging from the rise of the internet to virtual reality. Anyone who does not see a future where we live in mobile housing has not been reading my blog very carefully.
2. Jeff VanderMeer's Southern Reach Trilogy (2014). VenderMeer's novels present a darker, even more distopian vision of the near future. The trilogy of Annihilation, Authority, and Acceptance focus on a group of bureaucrats, scientists, and intelligence officials who the vaguely articulated "Central" has tasked with studying a mysterious Area X which suddenly appeared along a stretch of the Forgotten Coast. When the phenomenon that created Area X occurred, the sparse population of this stretch of coastline vanished and a barrier arose between the area and its surroundings. Southern Reach is the government agency investigating Area X, and while the descriptions of the mysterious area tend toward the etherial, they are unmistakably archaeological in character. The desolate beauty of abandonment permeates the novel and provides VenderMeer with an appropriate backdrop to explore the alienating effects of modern society.
3 Julia Schumacher, Dear Committee Members (2014). This lovely, short novel explores a year in the life of Prof. Jason Fitger through his letters of recommendation. It chronicles his relationships with his ex-wife and ex-girl friend, his desperate efforts on behalf of a once promising friend and a student whose funding is cut by an increasingly rapacious administration, and his various letters to support students looking for work. The letter themselves range from the pathetic, to the charming, hilarious, and all-to-real, but they all embody the tension between Fitger as the devoted egoist and as the dedicated mentor, colleague, and friend. His letters become opportunities to reflect on his own situation in life as well as those of the students and colleagues who he recommends. The situations will be depressingly familiar to anyone who has spent time in academia: the grass is always greener (in another department), the plight of the overlooked genius, the anxiety surrounding creative and scholarly production, and the alternation between naivety and suspicion.
One more set of flights starting this afternoon and then I'll be home for the holidays. I don't have any more novels to read, so I'll have to do work. Hopefully spending some time with creative folks like Gibson, VanderMeer, and Schumacher rubs off and makes me work better. Isn't that the promise of modernity?
Myth of Origins in the Bakken
November 18, 2014 § Leave a comment
I am once again in the Bakken, but this time on business with my wife rather than on my own research adventures. That being said, I did have a chance to visit a few sites that had eluded me including the monument marking the Clarence Iverson No. 1 well which initiated the Bakken boom in 1951 and the rather more obscure site of Temple where sweet North Dakota crude was first transported by rail to markets back east.
This got me thinking about the myths of origins in the Bakken. The name of the play derives from the Henry O. Bakken #1 spudded in July 1951 and completed less than a year later in April of 1952. The Iverson #1 was, of course, earlier, but Mr. Bakken's name graces the famous North Dakota oil play.
Some trace the origins of the most recent, fracking inspired oil boom to work in the Elm Coulie oil field in eastern Montana where horizontal drilling and fracking demonstrated the potential of these techniques as early as 2000, almost a decade before the current boom was touched off by a horizontal fractured well west of Williston.
I talk a good bit about the various origin stories in my Tourist Guide to the Bakken Oil Patch and this morning published Route 5: Williston, ND to Sidney, MT which looks west for the origins of the most recent boom.

Objects, History, Conflict: Cyprus, Atari, The Bakken
November 17, 2014 § Leave a comment
This has been a hectic week, but I did have the chance to get a little bit of reading done. I particularly enjoyed Rebecca Bryant's recent article in American Ethnologist 41 (2014), 681-697 titled "History's Remainders: On Time and Objects After Conflict on Cyprus."
The article looks at objects looted, left behind, and sometimes returned after the conflict between Turkish and Greek Cypriots in the 1960s and 1970s. The displacement of families from their homes on both sides and the occupation of new homes whose residents were displaced created a series of object biographies that traced the outlines of the conflict itself. Necessity often compelled Cypriots to loot commodities from the homes of their displaced neighbors during lulls and in the aftermath of the conflict. These objects represented the spoils of the conflict and rarely had lasting emotional value. These Bryant refers to as "remainders" whose everyday – mundane – existence communicated an uncanny quality for both the current and past residents of Cypriot homes. Their familiar, yet ambiguous and displaced existence, evoked a disturbed sense of home and belonging (from the belongings).
Bryant called "remains" objects that had clear and intimate connections to the home's previous owner, and these objects tended to have less ambiguity and be treated with greater respect. Bryant describes photographs, dowry chests, and wedding gowns that evoked the shared humanity of both the resident and displaced "other". In some cases, these objects were destroyed by the new residents who made efforts to suppress the humanity of their displaced adversaries. In other cases, these objects were preserved or even returned their displaced owners as a gesture of shared humanities.
Both remains and remainders carry with them the burden of history and objects often represent conflict both in a tremendously immediate way and through their complex associations with past events. This emphasizes the temporal character of these objects and their potential both to create a sense of belonging in history and to generate anxiety about an uncertain future.
At the same time that I was digesting this complex and compelling article, I was following the auction of the games from the Atari landfill in Alamogordo, New Mexico. Without trivializing the history of objects and experiences of people on Cyprus, these games also emerged through a moment of conflict and continue to carry the ambiguous potential of an uncertain future. For some, these games represent the folly of our hyperactive media cycle which can impart value almost instantly and withdraw it almost as quickly. They also invoke the tumultuous history of the gaming industry in the early 1980s. The history of these games, then, rests at the intersection contemporary media culture and the fragile economy of the early 1980s.
Today, I'm heading out to the Bakken oil patch one more time with an updated draft of my Tourist Guide in hand. I've been thinking a good bit with Dean MacCannell's The Tourist (1976). He argues that one of the goals of tourism is to unify the fragmented world of modernity and the subvert the alienation so characteristic of the modern world. This is particularly the case of tourism focused on industrial sites, factories, and the like. The position of the tourist, above and outside of the fragmented experience of industrial labor, allows them to understand the universe of work and the production of objects as all part of the same experience. Rebecca Bryant regarded objects as uncanny owing their ambiguous relationship with time. Tourism must produce a similarly uncanny encounter with the world as the tourist stands outside of the fragmented temporal rhythms of everyday industrial life, but nevertheless still in contact with this experience and its products.
The temporal displacement encountered through tourism and through objects associated with conflicts, the fickle whims of the media, and booms (like the Bakken) makes for a good topic for reflection recently as I spent time in various timezones and observe the world from and increasingly distant and detached perspective. Strolling through airports, truck stops, or streaming by outside a car window has given me pause to consider whether the "unified" world view has any more relationship to our lived experiences than some cheaply made "souvenir" from an airport gift shop.

Originally written on Fox Sports Wisconsin | Last updated 11/15/14
David Shaw and Bret Bielema sidled up to each other in a Texas hotel last year at an awards banquet and struck up a conversation about how much each coach admired the other's football program. Perhaps it's no surprise that Shaw, the Stanford coach, and Bielema, the Wisconsin coach, hit it off. The similarities in their styles of play are obvious: Two pro-style offenses with hard-nosed defenses that grind out victories with regularity. So when Wisconsin (8-5) won the Big Ten championship Saturday night to earn a spot in the Rose Bowl against Pac-12 champion Stanford (11-2), both coaches were delighted about the prospects of facing one another. "This is going to be probably the first team really for both of us that it's almost kind of like a mirror image," Shaw said Sunday night on a Rose Bowl teleconference. The similarities in personnel and success are eerie. Wisconsin ranks No. 13 nationally in total defense (320.9 yards per game), while Stanford is No. 21 (33...

Winnipeg Free Press - PRINT EDITION
No place for the pulpit in the police chief's office
It was last summer, in a column about the city's search for a new leader of its ever-embattled police service, when I first suggested what would eventually come to pass. That Supt. Devon Clunis -- the service's chaplain of long standing and yes, long kneeling -- would be chosen as our 17th police chief.
The column concluded with an unintentionally prescient quote from a retired senior officer who, after noting Clunis had a divinity degree, quipped:
Related Items
"So he could always pray for things to get better."
Obviously, Clunis didn't find that funny, although I'm sure some of the rank and file did Tuesday.
A big part of a police chief's job is to avoid political booby traps. Instead, as his first order of business, he went out of his way to create one for himself.
Apparently, he just couldn't help himself.
Stephen Harper, like Clunis, is a member of the evangelical Alliance Church, but the prime minister is astute enough to keep his religious beliefs out of political pronouncements, if not all of his policies.
But, again, Clunis couldn't help himself.
Twenty years ago, mandatory prayer in public schools was struck down in Manitoba as unconstitutional because it violated the section on freedom of thought. The city's soon-to-be top law enforcement official should have been sensitive to that and the views of people who don't believe in God. But, again, Clunis couldn't help himself.
He could have taken the religion out of his plea by appealing to people to help each other and police by doing whatever they felt they could, from volunteering with at-risk children to creating a Neighbourhood Watch.
But Clunis -- a man who has suggested God had a plan for him to become police chief -- just couldn't help himself. He couldn't help himself because while he made his plea for prayer ecumenical, and later reportedly vowed he wasn't proselytizing, his responsibilities at his conservative evangelical church suggest otherwise.
Clunis, of course, is entitled to persuade the unconverted in his private time, but not from his pulpit as police chief, where his responsibility is to serve and protect, not to preach about the power of prayer.
Perhaps he would have been more sensitive if he had recalled it was men of prayer preying on First Nations children that passed down a lethal legacy that accounts for much of the violence that has infected so many aboriginal families in our city.
As for Clunis's future as chief, I want to believe in him and his ability to lead by example. But I've already lost some faith in the faith-based judgment of a new police chief who unnecessarily divides the public, when it would have been so easy to bring them together.
Say a prayer for him if you must.
But if first impressions turn out to be lasting, Devon Clunis doesn't have one. Not as the leader the Winnipeg Police Service, whose members deal every day with the people God forsook.
And for whom prayer was a bloody curse.

Ian Rule asks: Why is Copeland left picking up the bill?
Last updated at 09:50, Thursday, 10 April 2014
WE are always beset by political problems. What seems to me to be special about the present is that most of our problems derive from two sources. The first is debt; the second is a constitutional issue.
Recently, many countries have run into economic problems through debt: some through their National Debt being unsustainable, the fault of their politicians; some through personal debt and some through catastrophic failure of the banking system.
In Britain, the biggest of these three problems was disregard for the National Debt, mainly by Blair and Brown.
Do you remember Blair trying to convince you that a war against Iraq would cost nothing? Remember the sanctioning of a Millennium Dome when they could not decide what to put in it!
My question is, why does the bill have to be picked up by Copeland in particular? Neighbouring boroughs have not shed their civic halls, museums, public toilets and other facilities.
By the way, there still are toilets under the multi-storey car park but they are locked. (Hush Ian, they'll hear you and rush out to demolish them!)
Seriously, though, coming to an arrangement to re-open these facilities would allow market stallholders and their customers access to toilets and possibly go some way to saving Whitehaven market.
Contrast the situation in Copeland with the situation in Liberal Democrat-run South Lakeland, where the Lib Dems have built a base of sound finances which enables them to consider a modest development of services.
The fact is that Copeland Borough Council has struggled to manage our finances for decades; this came to light during audits in the 1990s.
The electorate has woken up to this fact and many are pressing for a change in the way the borough is run on a day-to-day basis. It is suggested that the current council leader and Executive be replaced with a directly elected mayor and cabinet. In truth there is little difference and there would be no significant saving.
The constitutional issue is one that we must address. We already have devolved government in Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland, so we are on the road to a federal system. England has no equivalent level of power, and this affects all of us.
Liberal Democrats are therefore calling for a full UK Constitutional Convention to resolve these differences and at the same time examine the best way to reorganise local government to achieve genuine and open local democracy, allowing councils or their successors real power, whilst being fully answerable to local communities.

Marc Gasol couldn't believe both defenders stayed with him when he set a pick at the foul line on the final play.

NASHVILLE — Education Department Commissioner Kevin Huffman saidThursday that the scrutiny he received during his nearly four turbulent years at the helm of the state's schools didn't influence his decision to leave for the private sector.
Huffman, whose departure was announced by Gov. Bill Haslam, has been a lightning rod whose policies and strong advocacy for Common Core standards made him a target for conservatives and teachers' groups.
NEW ORLEANS — Ruby Bridges was 6 years old in 1960 when she became the first black student to attend a previously all-white elementary school in New Orleans, one of the iconic moments in the U.S. civil rights movement. Today, the civil rights pioneer says America looks a lot like it did then: A nation with segregated schools and racial tension.
On Friday — 54 years later to the day when she first walked up the steps to William Frantz Elementary School — she commemorates that event with the unveiling of a statue in her likeness at her old school. Also, she is reuniting with the white teacher who taught her and with the sole-surviving U.S. marshal who walked her to school.
My poster was important. I knew it was vital information. I wanted everyone who came by to see it and take action on it. As I approached the noticeboard of the local library, I was faced with a harsh reality. It was full.
Here I was with an important message, or so I thought, about a food drive to help the Mid-South Food Bank. The information I wanted to share had the potential to make a difference in someone's life. But the board where I wanted to place the message was full of other flyers, posters and business cards. I am sure that everyone else thought that their message was equally as important.

Deepwater mooring specialist, First Subsea Ltd has been awarded a contract by Technip Inc to supply the subsea mooring connectors for a 23,000-ton truss spar platform moored in 5,310ft (1,620 m) of water in Anadarko Petroleum Corp's Heidelberg field development in Green Canyon Blocks 859, 860,903, 904 and 948 in the Gulf of Mexico.
The Heidelberg spar will be moored by nine Series III Ballgrab ball and taper mooring connectors attached to polyester mooring lines. The connector's male mandrels are manufactured in compliance with American Bureau of Shipping (ABS) 2009 Approval for specialist subsea mooring connectors. First Subsea is the first manufacturer of offshore mooring connectors to achieve ABS type approval for the design and manufacture of large-scale forgings over 500mm in diameter.
The Heidelberg field is close to Anadarko's 100%-owned Constitution spar, also moored using First Subsea mooring connectors in 2005. Since then over 370 Ballgrab connectors have been successfully deployed in deepwater moorings worldwide.
"This is our tenth spar mooring project for Technip," says John Shaw, managing director, First Subsea Ltd. "The speed and ease of the Ballgrab connection is well proven in a range of industry-leading, deepwater projects in the Gulf of Mexico."
The Heidelberg spar will have a capacity of more than 80,000 barrels of oil and 2.3 million cubic meters of natural gas per day.

agentorange [Celluloid 12.05.11] post apocalyptic movie review scifi thriller
Year: 2011
Directors: Tim Fehlbaum
Writers: Tim Fehlbaum / Oliver Kahl
IMDB: link
Trailer: link
Review by:
Rating: 9 out of 10
Think Roland Emmerich can only make bloated, unrealistic post-apocalyptic blockbusters that pander to the lowest common denominator? Think again. He recently executive produced Hell, a German language post-apocalyptic horror flick that just kicked my head in.
Though simple in its plot (which is essentially an apocalyptic twist on backwoods hillbilly horror) Hell works because of the brutality of the world, the constant tension and realistic performances from the cast. It just grabbed me from the get-go and had me on the edge of my seat until the end.
In a bit more detail: Hell feels like Emmerich's answer to The Road and I can't help but imagine that this is the story of another small group of survivors in Cormac McCarthy's harsh universe. The scope of the story is smaller, but it's also 100 times as tense so you don't really notice. Like, imagine if we got to see the story of one of The Road's basement dwellers and how they ended up being dinner. How scary is that?
The film follows two sisters, Marie and Leonie, and a guy named Philip as they try to make their way across the mountains to where they believe it has begun raining again. When they stop for gas they pick up a potentially dangerous new guy, Tom, and continue on until they hit a roadblock which turns out to be a trap that will tear the group apart and lead to disastrous consequences.
At the heart of the film is the relationship between older and younger sisters played by Hannah Herzsprung (The Reader, The Baader Meinhof Complex) and newcomer Lisa Vicari. Their relationship just feels real. One protects the other in the wake of their parent's death, but it is not over-written. It just is, so when the two characters are split up you feel genuine fear that they will perhaps not be reunited.
Markus Förderer won Best Cinematography for Hell at Sitges last year and I can see why. The sun-bleached world devastated by solar flares takes lens blow-outs and flaring to a whole new level and the intense style totally pays off during a particularly terrifying chase at the end.
Like I said above, Hell is fairly simple story-wise and is as much a horror film as a PA film, but it balances the two extremely well. It will appeal to PA fans who like their apocalypse movies to be realistic and brutal and horror fans will love the tension and overall violent tone of the world.
Keep an eye out for this one, because it's not to be missed.

Immunotherapy controls 81% of anti-NMDA autoimmune encephalitis
The anti-NMDA autoimmune encephalitis is a disease described in 2005 by a team led by Dr. Josep Dalmau at the University of Pennsylvania (USA). In this disorder the patient's immune system attacks the NMDA receptors in the brain, which are important for neuronal plasticity. It triggers a wide range of symptoms such as psychosis, behavioral disturbances, memory deficit or loss of consciousness that may be confused with severe psychiatric disorders. The disease affects mainly women, especially young ones. Nowadays Dr. Josep Dalmau heads, thanks to a senior ICREA contract, the Autoimmunity against synaptic antigens IDIBAPS group. In collaboration with colleagues at the University of Pennsylvania, where he keeps collaborating, and other international partners, his team published in Lancet Neurology the keys to successfully treat over 80% of these patients. The first author is Dr. Maarten Titulaer, a Dutch researcher who works at Dr. Dalmau's IDIBAPS team.

The gala – which was coordinated by OPI's exclusive Russian distributor, Verbena – included a two-hour presentation of new OPI products.
Modern opulence came to life in June as OPI launched its 2007/2008 Fall/Winter Russian Collection for nails and lips in a legendary Moscow venue. Famed for being a favorite of wealthy noblemen, Yar restaurant was mentioned in the novels of Tolstoy – and on this special night it heralded in OPI's new colors. Over 250 people gathered for the event – among them editors from Russian Cosmopolitan, Glamour, InStyle, and Vogue, as well as NAILS and other professional beauty magazines.
The gala – which was coordinated by OPI's exclusive Russian distributor, Verbena – included a two-hour presentation of new OPI products. Russian dancers in national costumes entertained, while OPI president and CEO George Schaeffer did his part by dressing in costume as the Tsar.
"In this elegant setting that so beautifully evokes Russia's aristocratic past, the Russian Collection really comes alive," said Schaeffer.

Final Game of Season Could Decide New York Knicks' Playoff Fate
The real challenge for the New York Knicks begins tonight when they face the Brooklyn Nets. They are currently in ninth place in the Eastern Conference. One win away from the Atlanta Hawks, who hold the eighth and final playoff seed.
However, the Knicks will need to work harder than the Hawks en route to the postseason. Their final seven games is against teams that currently hold a playoff spot. In the meantime, Atlanta will face a slightly easier schedule, including games versus the Miami Heat and the Indiana Pacers.
Since both teams have 32 wins each, this race could go down to the final game of the season. Disregarding the tie-breaker scenario, Atlanta has a two-game cushion since the Knicks have played two more games at this point of the season.
Based on Atlanta's head-to-head record against opposing teams in their remaining schedule, the Hawks have an advantage over five of the teams and could end the year with a 37-45 record. This would go against the Knicks because every team New York will face leads in the head-to-head column right now, but they can split or win series in six of their next seven games.
The Knicks will need to win at least six games due to the tie-breaking conference record between both teams. Or else New York will lose the tie-breaker based on each teams' conference record.
New York will have to rely on its slow-moving but promising momentum throughout the season. Last month it had an impressive 11-5 record that included its big eight-game win streak. Even J.R. Smith's scoring had progressed over the months. He averaged 11.7 points per game in November and gradually increased to 15.5 points in March.
Since the Knicks struggled for most of the season, they may need to rely on their momentum and hope for some luck. Hey, if it helped the New York Giants win Super Bowl XLII, the Knicks can at least dream about entering the playoffs!
