Real Steel
A game Hugh Jackman aids this prepubescent bot royale
Published: October 6, 2011
Real Steel
3 Stars
Real Steel is the type of movie that opens with a robot tussling with a rodeo bull at a county fair. It's a film utterly without pretense or irony, and if there's anything about it that earns my respect, it's the total commitment on behalf of director Shawn Levy (the Night at the Museum movies) and producer Steven Spielberg to assembling The Best Movie Ever If You Happen To Be 12 Years Old.
In a near future where bot battles have replaced actual bloodsport, one-time contender Charlie Kenton (Hugh Jackman) struggles to secure whatever matches he can with whichever second-hand machine he has. His debts are mounting, so when Charlie finds out that he has an illegitimate son, Max (Dakota Goyo), and a rich sister-in-law (Hope Davis) eager to take custody of the kid, he agrees to serve as temporary guardian in exchange for a chunk of cash.
If you've seen Over the Top, then you know the petulant son and reluctant dad are bound to bond over the sport of choice, and nothing in the screenplay – credited to three writers and loosely inspired by a Richard Matheson short story – deviates from the underdog blueprint in the least. Setbacks and surprise victories come like clockwork, the villains are heavily accented archetypes worthy of Rocky and Bullwinkle and montages are plentiful. This is a well-oiled machine composed entirely of recycled parts, and its creators make no bones about it.
It's the relentless earnestness of Speed Racer stripped of any distinct visual excitement, and while it feels dutifully directed above all else, Levy's work here is refreshingly focused for a director coming off a streak of slapdash comedies. The occasionally animatronic, mostly computer-generated robot effects are as slick as can be (bolstered by the solid sound design), while the bouts are mercifully clear-headed in the wake of Transformers' metal-on-metal mayhem. Danny Elfman's score is generically rousing, while Mauro Fiore's cinematography reinforces the belief that this should look and feel like The Most Important Movie Ever (If You're 12 Years Old).
Setting aside its sheen, however, the film's greatest secret weapon is Jackman himself, playing his part to the hilt. He seems to relish the idea of playing a considerable bastard at first, willing to use his own newly orphaned son as blackmail leverage before inevitably lowering his guard, and there's never any doubt that Jackman knows exactly what type of picture he signed up for. Besides, compared to the supporting turns by Anthony Mackie and Kevin Durand, he isn't at risk of giving the film's hammiest performance. I wish there was more to say about Goyo as Charlie's son or Evangeline Lilly as Charlie's business partner/love interest, but they're respectively precocious and pretty in their roles, each serving exactly their purpose and doing little more than saying some seriously silly lines with a completely straight face – a commendable feat when Levy starts laying on the corniness extra thick.
Maybe the sole interesting implication of Real Steel is its suggestion of a future that plays like a feasible endgame for a generation raised to prefer digital avatars over actual sport. (The paltry box office for last month's Warrior only reinforces that notion.) It's all things shiny and loud for an audience plugged into all things shiny and loud; a portrayal of the triumphant human spirit in an age where humans don't cut it anymore.

State of Iowa vs. Glenn James & Oscar Hess
On January 10, 1940, Glenn James, age 31of Sioux City, Iowa and Oscar Hess, age 27 of Sedalia, Missouri were charged with the alleged Robbery of Val Breuer's place of business in Ashton, Iowa on the night of December 6, 1939.
Events of the Crime
On the night of December 6, 1939, Val Breuer contacted Deputy Sheriff John Nicoll of the Osceola County Sheriff's Office, in Sibley, Iowa stating his place of business in Ashton, Iowa was held up and robbed. Breuer reported the loss of $80.00 in US currency. He told Deputy Nicoll that he was held up by two men, Glenn James a negro which struck Breuer with a shot gun, and Oscar Hess a white man. A witness, R. Boor of Ashton, Iowa was present during the robbery and witnessed James strike Breuer with a shot gun. Deputy Nicoll was notified by the Sioux City police, stating they had picked up Oscar Hess in Sioux City. Hess confessed that he and Glenn James had held up Val Breuer on the night of December 6, 1939 and that Glenn used a shot gun when they were holding up Breuer. Hess also confessed that he obtained the sum of $36 from the robbery.
Striking a loose patch of gravel two miles southeast of Ashton, the car left the road, turned over several times. According to the confession of James the automobile was traveling 65 miles at the time. Unhurt, the men escaped from the wreck, walked six miles to Highway 59 where they stole a car belonging to Clifford Harding. They then drove to Sioux City, abandoning the car.
James served a sentence at Anamosa, having been charged with manslaughter. Hess was in Jefferson City prison for forgery and car theft charges.
Tuesday Deputy John Nicoll and Sheriff Edward Leemkuil of Primghar took the two men to prison.
picked up in Sioux City for failure to report to authorities, he having served two terms in the Missouri prison at Jefferson City. James was later involved.
Breuer identified the men, although not positively. At the insistence of Osceola county officials the men were questioned and admitted their guilt.
The two men left Sioux City December 2, according to their confessions, taking a freight train to Worthington, Minn. They stole two cars, the second of which was taken from north of Rushmore the Wednesday evening of the robbery. The men drove to Little Rock, then to Ashton where they robbed the Breuer place.
On January 13, 1940, Glenn James and Oscar Hess plead guilty to the crime of Robbery with Aggravation and were both sentenced to imprisonment in the State Penitentiary at Fort Madison, Iowa for and indeterminate period not to exceed 25 years.
Sibley Gazette - January 18, 1940

The men were Glenn James, 31, a Negro of Sioux City, and Oscar L. Hess, 27, of Sedalia, Mo.

UWS, Recs for moderately priced breakfast, lunch, coffee and snacks etc
- p
- pepbobfirst Nov 16, 2007 12:02 PM
Hi, i'll be staying on W 81st St from Wed until sunday morning of Thanksgiving week and would be interested in going to interesting, moderately priced places for breakfast, lunch, ethnic, coffee and snacks etc within reasonable walking distance. I'am visiting from New Hampshire, and even tho iam not a total "Hay Seed" i will need some help finding some good spots to enjoy when we arent doing "family stuff." Thanks for your help!
Barney Greengrass is definitely a must for the best lox on the UWS. Perhaps you can put it atop an H&H bagel on Broadway. Ottomanelli's has cheap sandwiches as well, though I haven't stopped in as of yet.
Fairway Cafe is reliable for breakfast, lunch, or brunch.
Levain is great for cookies and other baked snacks.
The new Jacques Torres is open -- definitely stop by there for hot chocolate (or treats or whatever). Second the recs for Fairway Cafe and Barney Greengrass. If you're into seeing how we west-siders shop, browse Fairway and Zabar's. It's fun (but also a little scary too, by how crowded it can be).
Also, for cheap "ethnic" lunch, I've always like Caridad 78 (chino-cubano). Also cheap and of the "unlimited wine" variety, there's Silk Road Palace. For a hang-out-with-a-beer, we like George Keeley's.
For good Italian, try La Grolla, which is totally different from (though I prefer it) to Celeste (which has handmade pastas and the like; also in the neighborhood). For Turkish, we love Zeytin. For a casual neighborhood spot with good mac & cheese and salads, we like Fred's.
You can check out all the menus & prices on www.menupages.com. You can also browse by neighborhood on the site.
re: LNG212
Thanks for the recommendations so far, its always helpful to find out the "good" places from locals! They all sound like what iam interested in. we are going to "Blue Smoke" on Friday night { one of the family things iam doing } iam looking forward to that experience also
re: pepbobfirst
You are going to flip for Le Pain Quotidien.
(tell me if I am wrong!)
re: originalfoodie
Grandaisy bakery. If you're lucky, the pizza oven will be in before you leave...
have to disagree with the earlier suggestion of silk road. the food is worse than the free wine. and the free wine isn't good.
re: FattyDumplin
I have to disagree with your assessment of Silk Road Palace. I had been warned by several people who used to go there that the food is awful, but we all agree that the place has improved greatly. The wine is still Franzia, but the scallops in black bean sauce and pan fried noodles are top-notch. It's become my standard neighborhood place for good American chinese.
Re the "flip for" recommendation for Le Pain Quotidien, however -- I simply don't get the thread after thread recommending LPQ. It's just a chain bakery with a few admittedly good pastries, but nothing outstanding. I don't see what makes it a stand out establishment.
re: JungMann
i agree with your opinion of LPQ but i like the atmosphere. i live next door from one but never go in b/c i don't like the food. re SRP, i don't care for it, but i haven't been in over a year. when do you believe the changeover occurred?
re: nativeNYer
LPQ has a nice rustic quality, but I also find the Starbucks on West 4th relaxing at night. I'm still not chiming into threads with a recommendation for a prompt visit there.
I think the change occured in the past year as I had friends who dined there in Spring '06 who thought it was atrocious, but dined there recently with me and liked the food. It's certainly not up to par with authentic Cantonese and they are a little heavy with the salt and it may depend on what you order, but I have been happy with most of what I've had.
re: JungMann
fair enough. it's definitely better than that the cottage. just didn't think it really worth a stop while in the UWS.
re: originalfoodie
Second the Zabar's suggeston; another good lunch item there is Sullivan St pizza. Not your conventional pizza, but very good!
If you're a frozen yogurt fan, it's a good place to go, and cheaper than Bloomie's
re: orthorunner
'arte around the corner' is cute for italian coffee and desserts, it is on columbus near w73. the folks at grandaisy promised the pizza by next week as the ovens were on their way from italy. even if not, the desserts and breads are worth trying.
try patsy's for lunch at w74 and columbus. it will definitely be worth it to stop at zabar's cafe. it's close by. i like good enough to eat for breakfast. i know some people will disagree but the place is really cute/unique and i like their menu, the service and the food. that strawberry butter is great. sarabeth is also a popular breakfast place but probably on the expensive side. artie's is good for lunch if you are looking for large jewish deli with big pastrami sandwiches. edgar's cafe is cute for coffee. have fun.
Cafe con Leche gets my vote for breakfast or lunch (never been for dinner). The trademark coffee is fantastic and you can get huge, tasty plates of rice, beans, plantains and eggs for less than $10.
I also like Nico, a Greek-ish place slightly fancier than a diner. The daily brunch is great - innovative, generous and cheap. Not bad for dinner either. It has a good selection of veg options, too.
re: piccola
gee, i wish i was going to be in town for a few more days than what iam going to...most everything sounds great. thanks!
Look at http://www.europacafe.com/pressata/se...
There are many locations. Sit-in and very-very good breakfast options for $5.
I strongly second piccola's suggestion of cafe con leche.
I'd also add Ali Baba (85th and Amsterdam) for casual Turkish / Middle Eastern food; Hampton Chutney for casual fusion south Indian (82nds and Amsterdam); the homemade pastas at La Vela (78th and Amsterdam).
For coffee and breakfast, I like Zabar's cafe, as well (good coffee). Bruno Ravioli is excellent for cannoli. If you're nutty enough to want gelato in this weather (I am!), try Grom -- which isn't entirely moderately priced for the amount that you're getting, but in the grand scheme of things, isn't too expensive. There's a Beard Papa's near you, too, for puff pastries and green tea drinks to round out the moderately obscure chain dining experience.
We just got back from NYC and went to Blue Smoke twice :o) I highly recommend the fried chicken and the fry bread with chipotle butter. We went for the dry rub St. Louis ribs and were not disappointed.
A bit pricey but oh so delish was Grom for gelato, at 72nd and Broadway. The texture and flavor was very close to what we had at Vivoli in Florence (considered the best gelato in Florence)
re: sweeterpea
Just fyi ... Grom is between 76th and 77th on Bway.
re: LNG212
oops! sorry.

Newly published cyber security report identifies key research priorities for safeguarding the Internet of tomorrow
Outcome of CSIT's Belfast 2011 Cyber Summit represents a global collective strategy for world's leading research institutes
Developing self-learning, self aware cyber security technologies, protecting smart utility grids and enhancing the security of mobile networks are among the top research priorities needed to safeguard the internet of tomorrow, according to a report released today.
Published by the UK's National Centre for Secure Information Technologies (CSIT), the report represents the outcome of discussions held during the inaugural World Cyber Security Technology Research Summit hosted by CSIT earlier this year.
The Belfast 2011 event attracted international cyber security experts from leading research institutes, government bodies and industry who gathered to discuss current cyber security threats, predict future threats and the necessary mitigation techniques, and to develop a collective strategy for next generation research.
The collective research strategy contained in the report identifies four research themes critical to the ongoing creation of cyber security defences:
"Belfast 2011 brought together a diverse range of talent and knowledge in the cyber security field from which we have developed this strategy for next generation research," says Prof John McCanny CSIT's Principal Investigator.
"Our ambition is that this strategy will help to inform global cyber security research and act as a driver for cyber security roadmap definition over the coming year. We will hold future summits at which changes in cyber security will be discussed and the proposed collective research strategies will be reviewed and developed."

The Top Five Things I Told Myself I'd Never Get Into That I Am Now Into
5) Heels- I'm a very tall girl, but dance classes have taught me the wonders of using heels to lengthen yourself and turn your walk into underwater gorgeousness. Also I am too lazy to get my jeans hemmed, so I kinda have to wear them so they don't drag the ground. Ideal heels are about 2 inches tall so that I don't tower over my beloved and so I can still run if necessary.
4) Dr. Who- I've got a thing coming out soon on tv.com about my love of the newest Dr. Who, but it was like pulling teeth to get me to watch. There's something about long-running British tv series that are too gritty and dirty looking and positively overflowing with quirkiness that sometimes makes me want to set my own hair on fire. But this show has me completely hooked.
3) Jeans- In college, I decided that jeans were for commoners, and vowed to never ever ever wear them again. I wore only skirts for about a year, and then actually wore what friends called "waitress pants", which were black pants with a built in short black skirt. Ridiculous looking. It wasn't until grad school that I agreed to wear jeans again, and now you can't get me out of them. I am a commoner.
2) Twitter- I made fun of EVERYONE for signing up for Twitter, seeing it as shameless self promotion, but I admit it, I was wrong. I didn't realize that Twitter sent out automatic notifications to everyone on your gmail contact list when you signed up, so rather than starting quietly, I just gave all my friends lots of ammo.
1) Pixar- Thank Kumail for this one. I dismissed Toy Story as kiddie cheesiness years ago, but Kumail took my hand and guided me through Monsters Inc, Toy Story 1 and 2, and Ratatouille. Now I can't get enough.

Since I'm not really a facebooker your blog is a lovely link with you (apart from Craft Camp fixes).

it's great to see this blog from you, with the mysterious knitting photo sample.
I know what you mean about not always being willing or able to post the blog you'd wish to post.
Let some time pass, and the moment will announce itself. Or at least that is how it works with me.

Train deaths continue to raise questions
James you are a complete a$$hole to say the least...no way in the world you are married or have kids and if you do, bless their heart to have a daddy and husband like yourself. Would love to know who you are and catch you out somewhere...just uncalled for and inappropriate. People amaze me sometime...just for one second James, put yourself in their parents shoes, brothers/sisters shoes, friends shoes...probably can't cause you have neither
Wiedmer: UTC, Shulman in particular learn tough lessons
there you are again!! Bang'em when they are down, cheer for 'em when they are winning...I hope I don't see you at a game this year...start a petition to get coach out of here, since you are "proud alum"
Mocs woes no laughing matter
I guess going to NCAA tournament last year means that the program is headed to the bottom...call Roy Williams and tell him there needs to be some changes at North Carolina cause they lost the starting five and are the bottom of the ACC. I played college basketball and was coached by someone who played basketball, what does that have to do with anything???
It doesn't make me feel any different than saying it any other time, but I hope making your comments about your "alma mater" on the computer makes you feel good...name someone that would be better than Coach Shulman at UTC??
And define once great program??? The sweet 16 once and don't get me wrong, I loved it then...is it a down year if they don't get to the sweet 16??? Have a little perspective, thats all I ask!!
Mocs woes no laughing matter
najones75, let me guess...you didn't play any sport in your days?!? What sports did you play?? Obviously none, cause you don't understand anything about college sports and being a coach, thats why you sit in the stands and complain or sit at home and listen to the radio---just shut your mouth and cheer for the Vols, cause it sounds like you are a Vol fan. And next year, when they are winning more games because of these learning experiences they are going through, I am sure you'll be the one congratulating coach and his team for a job well done...right?? When things are going well, you're cheering; when things are going bad, YOU'RE the first to reem somebody...
Citadel topples Mocs
What kind of change are you talking about najones75??? You lose the starting the 5 from last years team, which in turn is 85% of your team's points...what do you expect??

Everyone's TomKat Crazy
I've been on a TomKat spree since M:I:III was released (I'm such a sucker for 'slebs cunning media-manipulation), and have hunted down the best TomKat sites for your viewing (dis)pleasure. Follow the jump for the best TomKat blogs, merchandise, baby Suri's Myspace pages, and the latest goss on the controversial couple. So, err, has anyone managed to actually see the film yet? Against your will, you say? Oh dear. Leave your comments and let us know your thoughts on the blockbuster failure. [Katherine Hannaford]
The cherry on the pie belongs to Tomcruiseblog, which whilst it hasn't been updated since October 2005, is an extremely entertaining satire of a personal Tom Cruise blog. It includes a very touching letter to his former rumoured flame, Rob of Matchbox 20, and possibly the best fictional Tom Cruise quote ever - 'She no longer flinches (as much) when I touch her as she did when we first met, and she no longer freaks out (as much) whenever she sees me playing naked pool with the butler and the gardener. She even joins in, every once in awhile. It's so awesome.' Love it! Just wish the people behind it would update more often. (Hint hint)
I've managed to find another TomKat blog, TomKatcrazy, which follows every move the pair makes, and is updated several times a day. What more could a bored blogger want in life?
Much in the manner as the 'Free Winona' t-shirts from yesteryear, we now have 'Free Suri' t-shirts available, and of course, 'Free Katie' t-shirts. What I'd give to see Nicole Kidman wearing one of those.
Whilst she may be unable to walk, talk, or start a computer, Suri Holmes-Cruise already has 9 different Myspace accounts. We hear she'll only be your friend if you're a Scientologist, bummer...
And today's gossip on Tom and Katie claims that Tom wears 'lifts' in his shoes. Well, duh, anyone could've told the New York Daily Times that piece of info! Doesn't anyone remember when Nicole Kidman blurted out 'I can wear heels!' on Letterman after their split?

COLI 2000-L01 – Texts and Contexts: Literature and Film in the early 20th Century (3 credits)
S. Cornish MW 11:30-12:45
This course will explore how cities, the geographical centers of modernism, became sites of political, creative, and intellectual power during the interwar years. A wide selection of essays, poetry, fiction, and experimental texts as well as works of expressionist and avant-garde cinema will facilitate discussion about how, in addition to the socio-political climate, the city's physical spaces generate creative cosmopolitan and deeply collaborative communities. We will pay special attention to how Berlin, Paris, Madrid, and New York City appear in and influence the works of writers such as Walter Benjamin, Bertolt Brecht, Andrew Breton, Janet Flanner, Ernest Hemingway, Christopher Isherwood, Federico Garcia Lorca, Mina Loy, Adrienne Monnier, John Dos Passos, Virginia Woolf, and read selections from urban and cultural theorists. As we discuss questions of translation, students will have the opportunity to read authors in their original language; however, no special knowledge of French, German, or Spanish is required.
Fulfills the core requirement in Literature in English, the distributive requirement
in Eloquentia perfecta (EP2).
– Medicine and Literature in the Ancien Régime (4 credits)
A. Clark
In this course we will look at the intersections between literary narratives and medical discourse

The Enlightenment period witnessed a massive medicalization of literature and the reader. We will examine the ways in which medical doctors sought to harness the power and techniques of literature to treat their patients, and the ways in which novelists made use of various medical theories to awaken and move the bodies of their readers. Writers will include Swift, Sterne, Buffon, Diderot, Cabanis, Haller, Tissot, Whytt, Sade, among others. We will also be reading recent theoretical works related to the history of medicine, the philosophy of science, and critical theory that inform these intersections. Students in the Natural Sciences are particularly encouraged to take this course.

– Pagans and Christians in the Roman Empire
(4 credits)
C. Sogno
This course offers an overview of the multifaceted and complex history of Romano-Christian relations from the first to the beginning of the fifth century CE. Far from being two rigidly distinct and monolithic groups, Christians and pagans interacted in a variety of ways, and Christianity was deeply influenced by Greco-Roman culture. We shall start by trying to define who the Christians and the "pagans" were repectively, and we shall see not only how inaccurate and problematic the label "pagan" is, but also how deceptively unproblematic the use of the term "Christian" is. The topics for discussion will be presented chronologically and will include: the attitude of the Roman state toward Christianity; Roman persecution of Christians; Christian martyrs; the birth of Christian apologetic; the reform of the Roman state and the great persecution under Diocletian; Constantine's ascent to power and his edict of toleration; Julian the Apostate and his efforts to promote the traditional religion of Rome; religious violence; the "Battle of the Altar"; Theodosius' ban on pagan animal sacrifice; Augustine's conversion to Christianity; pagan and Christian reactions to the Fall of Rome.

Developments such as the demise of feudalism, rise of urban centers, formation of monarchies, and rise of reformist religious movements will be examined in relation to similar processes in the Islamic context. In addition, the course will explore the political, cultural, and intellectual interaction and exchange between Christendom and Islamdom in this period, and emphasize the "global" aspect of the Renaissance which has been largely ignored by the traditional historiography with its fixation on the existence of dichotomous categories, such as East/West, Muslim/Christian, or Turkish/European.

Armenian Okra
We always use fresh okra in from our garden for this recipe when I was a kid, but I've found that frozen, thawed okra works fine, too. To get the full effect, you must spoon this over the rice pilaf so it soaks up the sauce. —Jean Ecos, Hartland, Wisconsin

NASHVILLE — Stephen Crump is now officially the new district attorney general for the 10th Judicial District after Gov. Bill Haslam appointed him effective immediately.
Crump, 47, replaces Steve Bebb, who submitted his resignation in May after serving the district for nearly 40 years as district attorney general, Criminal Court judge and assistant district attorney general.
"Stephen is active in his community and has extensive public and private sector experience," Haslam said in a news release. "The 10th Judicial District will benefit from all that he brings to the table, and I appreciate him serving in this capacity."
Crump will serve the remainder of Bebb's term, which ends Aug. 31. He defeated Bebb protege Stephen Hatchett in the May Republican primary and is unopposed in the August general election.
"I am honored to accept Gov. Haslam's appointment to serve as district attorney general, and I look forward to once again serving the citizens of the 10th Judicial District," Crump said.

A carbon-coated nano-MgO has been prepared with the assistance of sucrose and characterized by adsorption methods, X-ray diffraction method (XRD) and Scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Sucrose can both prevent the agglomeration of the synthesized Mg(OH)2 and act as the carbon source for surface coating of the MgO nanoparticles, and both crystallite sizes and carbon contents of the composites can be delicately adjusted by simply changing the sucrose to magnesium molar ratio. The MgO/C obtained in controlled synthesis has been proved to be a highly efficient chemisorbent for the dehydrochlorination of a PVC-containing mixture (Polypropylene/Polyvinyl Chloride).

Hushmail open to Feds with court orders
US federal law enforcement agencies have obtained access to clear text copies of encrypted emails sent through Hushmail as part a of recent drug trafficking investigation. The access was only granted after a court order was served on Hush Communications, the Canadian firm that offers the service. Hush Communications said it …
Computer Science - Solving yesterday's problems tomorrow
This particular wheel was re-invented years ago:
Create your public/private key pair, upload your public key and others can send you e-mail only you can decrypt.
Find for your friends on the key server, and you can send them e-mail only they can decrypt. (Although plenty of people can
tell who you send encrypted email to.)
In the UK you must regularly change your key and erase the old private key because the police can demand your password. If you do not bother to change your keys, you are better off keeping you password secret if your e-mails explain how to make bombs.
PKI for dummies
Hm... if you're too lazy to install the Java JRE, you deserve to get your ass handed to you. The whole point of Hushmail (and any PKI-based crypto system) is to have end-to-end crypto, leaving nothing in cleartext between two users. The Java applet enables this, but for someone to be so stupid to ignore this ... well, you deserve it.
I've gone as far as generating a zillion keys, one for each PC I use. The more your private keys roam around, the more chances someone will get them.
Okay...if Hushmail isn't secure enough...
How about Hashmail? Every mail you send is instantly turned into a randomly-salted MD5 hash. This was we can guarantee that no Federal Agency will ever read any of your outbound email ever again.
I feel the fact that no-one else will ever read your outbound mail, including the intended recipient, is a small price to pay for this level of security and privacy.
Given that you UK govt can threaten you with 5-years prison for non-disclosure of your keys, maybe you should store them off-site... (which really isn't sensible)
But now ofcourse they'll still get the good on you.
use it or lose it.
Encryption. If people don't get on the bandwagon and start encrypting all their communications, in the near future you will lose the right to do so. Governments can easily impose anti-encryption legislation when so few people are using it, under the old saw that "if you've got nothing to hide you have nothing to worry about".
Trouble is, governments change, and ordinary people do have things to hide from not just the government, but from their neighbours, their boss, and a host of others who can get access to your secrets.
Encryption. Use it now, or lose it. There are dozens of programs out there that can be installed and used.
As for Hushmail, they're a scam. I hope they get sued by their customers.
"How about Hashmail? Every mail you send is instantly turned into a randomly-salted MD5 hash. "
Yeah thats a great idea?! MD5 is a one way hash function - you cant decrypt it, numerous rainbow tables have been created for MD5 even up to a 3 character salt - but still no chance otherwise.

NEW YORK (AP) -- Those Victoria Secret models may have a secret. They're not just babes -- but working moms as well. Several of the VS Angels getting the most air-time on the CBS special last night are mothers. Miranda Kerr is one. She says Pilates, yoga and weight training helped to get her figure back in shape. Kerr works out at home with her son playing with his toys on the floor. Kerr adds someday, she'll let son Flynn see mommy's runway photos.
OLYMPIA, Wash. (AP) -- Expect to meet a lot of little Jacobs and Shophias -- at least in Washington state. Those are the most popular baby names, according to the state Health Department. Jacob was the first choice for boys the last decade in every year but three. Sophia has been one of the top four names since 2007. Next up for boys names: Alexander, Daniel, William and Ethan. And for girls: Olivia, Isabella, Emma and Ava.
LOS ANGELES (AP) -- California voters have decided a number of ballot issues over the years -- from cutting property taxes to legalizing medical marijuana. But Los Angeles voters may be asked if condoms should be required for porn stars. A health advocacy group says they've collected more than enough signatures to qualify the ballot measure for the June 2012 election. The proposal would require safe-sex porn as a condition of getting a filming permit in L.A. The measure is supported by the AIDS Healthcare Foundation. But critics say requiring condoms would force porno production underground, increasing the risk for the X-rated stars.
TRENTON, N.J. (AP) -- New Jersey won't stand in the way of love. At least if a couple of state legislators get their way. Two lawmakers have introduced bills to eliminate the state's 72-hour waiting period for couples wanting to get hitched. They argue that the law, which dates back to the 1930's, is outdated. Supporters say allowing instant marriages would give Garden State tourism a boost. New Jersey would join Connecticut and Rhode Island as the only states in the Northeast with no waiting.
CLIFTON PARK, N.Y. (AP) -- The pizza man to the rescue. College student Raleigh Powell is earning money delivering pies in upstate New York. He was on the job the other night when he passed a burning house. He's credited with saving an 83-year-old woman, by breaking out a window and pulling the senior citizen to safety. Powell suffered cuts on both arms helping Grace Keefer. Neither she nor her husband was hurt in the fire. Powell says his Army Reserve training helped him to keep his cool.
BETHLEHEM, N.H. (AP) -- Army green will be turning a little evergreen -- thanks to Christmas tree growers. Tree farms in New Hampshire and Vermont are donating at least 400 Christmas trees to military families around the world. WMUR-TV reports that school kids in Bethlehem, N.H., are helping to load trees donated by the Rocks Christmas Tree Farm. Those trees are headed to Fort Drum, N.Y. From there, the trees will be shipped to the families. The donations are part of a nationwide effort called Trees For Troops.

Detailed Description:
Hypogonadotropic hypogonadism (HH) occurs in approximately one-third of obese and type 2 diabetic men. Considering that there are 24 million diabetic and 100 million obese people, of which half are males, obesity and type 2 diabetes potentially constitute the major cause of hypogonadism in the population. We hypothesize that 1) HH in obese and type 2 diabetic men is associated with decreased insulin sensitivity, increased fat tissue mass, decreased lean body mass, increased inflammatory and oxidative stress, impaired sexual function and depressed mood as compared to diabetic and obese men with normal testosterone concentrations; and that 2) testosterone replacement for 24 weeks in men with HH leads to an improvement in these parameters. Our proposed study would be the first prospective, randomized trial to comprehensively evaluate the effect of HH on insulin sensitivity, body composition, inflammatory and oxidative indices in obese and type 2 diabetic subjects and the effect of six months of T replacement on these parameters. The study will have 2 arms (obese and type 2 diabetic arm) with 120 subjects in each arm. Each arm will have 60 men with HH and 60 men with normal testosterone concentrations(eugonadal men). Insulin sensitivity will be assessed by hyperinsulinemic-euglycemic clamps. Subcutaneous fat mass and lean body mass will be measured by DEXA and intra-abdominal (visceral) fat mass by MRI. All subjects will undergo hyperinsulinemic-euglycemic clamp, MRI, DEXA and give blood and urine samples (for measurement of inflammatory and oxidative stress) at baseline. Men with HH will then be randomized to receive testosterone or placebo gel for a total of 24 weeks. These men will undergo hyperinsulinemic-euglycemic clamps and give blood and urine samples for inflammation and oxidative stress at 4 weeks and 24 weeks. MRI and DEXA examinations will be carried out at 24 weeks again in men with HH. The primary endpoint of the study is to define a difference in whole body glucose uptake during hyperinsulinemic-euglycemic clamps between hypogonadal and eugonadal patients at baseline and an increase in glucose uptake in HH subjects after treatment with testosterone for 24 weeks. 30 subjects per group(testosterone and placebo gel each) will provide adequate power (0.8) to detect a significant difference of 10% in whole body glucose uptake. Therefore there will be 60 men with HH in each arm. For baseline comparisons, 60 men with normal testosterone concentrations will also be needed in each arm. Thus there will be 120 men in each arm and a total of 240 subjects in the study.
