Here's a new post on my scariest viewing experiences on my Huffington Post blog, a place where I occasionally post general interest items.
A Little Something to Celebrate the SeasonOctober 29, 2014

Can't wait to check out the films I've not seen, and you know I'm a huge fan of The Way He Looks, which is Brazil's submission to the Academy Awards this year. I've also written in the past about Live Free or Die, The Ten Year Plan, and Queens at Court. It's a great lineup!
GONE GIRLOctober 6, 2014
There are films by David Fincher over the years that have had me on the edge of my seat (Fight Club and The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo) and others that have had me covering my eyes (Se7en and Panic Room), but Gone Girl doesn't fall into either category.
There are debates about how it compares to the book (haven't read it) and debates about whether or not it is misogynistic (I could argue either way).
While I think the film stands alone as a solitary work (by which I mean that you don't have to have read the book to "get it"), I find it both lacking in sustained suspense and a bit self-conscious in its construction.
The film is not bad, but with this much hype, not bad is not good enough.
Not bad is disappointing.
LOVE IS STRANGEOctober 5, 2014
Love is Strange is one of the best movies I've seen in months. It is tender, authentic, and even delicate in its interplay of family dynamics.
John Lithgow and Alfred Molina play Ben and George, two men who have lived together in love for decades. When they marry, George loses his job as a music teacher at a Catholic school, a scenario that seems "ripped from the headlines" and, thus, more than plausible.
The financial jeopardy caused by his firing causes Ben and George to sell their apartment and temporarily move in with family members – separately. Given the constraints of New York City real estate, this, too, is a believable turn of events.
No matter how much family members may love and respect one another, close quarters and different lifestyles are bound to take a toll, as is separation for partners whose lives have been inextricably linked for so many years.
On its own merits, I would love Love is Strange, but there is more for me to admire about the film in the form of three intertextual strands.
First, I have mentioned how the film addresses a relevant issue that Frank Bruni writes about today in his New York Times op-ed column – the Catholic church's policy of firing employees who marry same-sex partners even when their status as partners has been known beforehand.
And, there is a second strand that, frankly, dazzled me when I was watching the film. Love is Strange is essentially an updated version of one of the saddest movies I have ever seen, Leo McCarey's 1937 film Make Way For Tomorrow in which Beulah Bondi and Victor Moore play the deeply in love couple forced to separate over financial difficulty that leads to the loss of their home.
Sigh. Just thinking about this film makes me weary and heartsick, which may not make you want to see Make Way For Tomorrow, but you should anyway.
Finally, the film strikes me as an interesting addition to cinematic depictions of "good teachers" who (usually unsuccessfully) challenge institutions of education and the status quo. George does that when calls the priest who fires him out on the hypocrisy of the church and, later, communicates with the parents of the students he taught music.
One of the marvels of Love is Strange is its surface simplicity and accessibility overlaying a much more complex story. The performances are strong, the storytelling subtle, and the situation is thought-provoking, but it is the tension between the simplicity of the situation and the complexity of finding a solution for it along with the intertextual narrative elements that makes me a fan…and I am a fan of Love is Strange.

This semester, I'm teaching three classes, and two of them are media studies seminars: Culture and the Sitcom, and Gender and Hitchcock.
Students in both classes are supposed to post and comment on our WFUmediaphiles blog. For now, it's mostly me posting and students commenting, but I expect that to change soon.
Take a look if you are so inclined. And, feel free to join the conversation!
Fascinating Read — Important, TooSeptember 18, 2014

Alison Bechdel's work IS genius, so the grant is fitting!
A FIVE STAR LIFESeptember 14, 2014
This moody, Italian film reminds me a little of the German film Mostly Martha (far superior to the Hollywood remake, No Reservations) and, perhaps, a little more of Cairo Time.
The story focuses on a woman whose job involves traveling to five-star hotels across Europe as a "mystery guest" who rates the establishments. It's a professional life of luxury that contrasts in tone but not content with her personal life in her spare, Roman apartment. After all, she is mostly alone in both spheres.
When she is home, her limited time is divided between her best friend (an ex-lover) and her sister and two young nieces. Even with them, however, she remains separate, holding something to herself.
The film explores her journey in a way that is likely to rankle people hankering for a conventional plot based on rising and falling action, reversals, and cathartic moments of revelation, but I think it has a subtler authenticity that comes from an independent women taking stock and coming to terms.
She has questions about the choices she has made and considers what kind of life she wants. Some of us do that regularly, some of us do it openly, and some of us avoid that type of introspection.
A Five Star Life is a good choice for a cloudy Sunday matinee. You still have time…

A Flag for a Story I'm working onOk so I'm working on this alternate history story.A Flag for a Story I'm working on by AltrumDissidia
Basic History of the reason for the flag
In this story, England would finally get control over France as an absolute monarchy to combine it with Ireland Wales and Scotland...530 years later. The later part of this sentence comes from the fact of the Hundred Years War between England and France (which ended in 1468 in my story). The Hundred Years War in Original Timeline and that of this time line was a succession crises between Edward III and his successors (descended from Edward II and his wife Isabella in the OST and Andrienne in this story's timeline) and the House of Valois or this timeline's equivalent[haven't totally worked out this part yet for the new timeline, but most likely still Valois]. History still plays out as the Valois branch wins. Jehanne [also known more famously as Joan of Arc] does help out her French King but ends up fighting Henry V [who's still alive at this time in the new timeline]'s brilliant plan of produci

Joan of Arc
Joan of Arc (1412—1431) is the ultimate iconic rebellious teenager. In nineteen years she lived a fuller and more exciting life, effecting the future histories of the two most powerful nations on Earth, than most can even dream of, and then died a martyr's death for her cause and beliefs, for which she was declared a saint 500 years later. Her story has been told in many novels, movies and comic books. She was the girl who God gave a mission to drive the occupying English out of northern France. So fervid was her demand for action that she was made an advisor to the French high command and led them to victory after victory in the cause of F

Free Computer AT Already in Macintosh Computers
The Macintosh OS X operating system built-in accessibility features to make the monitor, keyboard, or mouse easier to use for many people. This article provides information on these features, including how to turn them on and use them. Some of these features are also available in earlier Macintosh systems; please contact us if you would like more information. Another good resource on Macintosh accessibility is the AT Mac blog.
Mouse Assistance/Alternatives
MouseKeys allows the keypad (the rectangle of number keys on the far right of most desktop keyboards) to be used to carry out all mouse commands. Separate keypads can also be purchased and added to laptops, or used by people who prefer to place the keypad on their left. Having MouseKeys active does not interfere with standard mouse use.
To access MouseKeys settings:
- Open the System Preferences window
- Open the Universal Access control panel
- Click on the "Mouse & Trackpad" tab
MouseKeys commands:
Movement keys:
7: Moves cursor northwest
8: Moves cursor due north
9: Moves cursor northeast
4: Moves cursor due west
6: Moves cursor due east
1: Moves cursor southwest
2: Moves cursor due south
3: Moves cursor southeast
Button Keys:
5: Emulates mouse button
0: Emulates drag function. (Position cursor over desired icon, then click "0." Use movement keys to drag icon. Use the Period key to turn drag function off.)
Speech Recognition
OSX includes a simple speech recognition utility that allows users to speak mouse commands. It does not support dictation.
To turn on speech recognition:
- Open the System Preferences window
- Open the Speech control panel
Keyboard Shortcuts
Many mouse functions can be carried out more efficiently through use of keyboard shortcuts. Common shortcuts include the following:
Copies highlighted text
Cuts highlighted text
Pastes highlighted text
Moves focus to menu bar
|Hide/show all open windows
Move down one page
|Run spell check on current document
Undo most recent action
Comprehensive shortcut lists are available:
Apple--Mac OSX Keyboard Shortcuts
Dan Rodney's List of Shortcuts
Keyboard Assistance/Alternatives
Sticky Keys/Slow Keys
StickyKeys eliminates the need to hold down more than one key at a time. When it is turned on, multi-key combinations involving the Shift, Control, or Alt keys can be executed by pressing the keys in sequence (e.g., Control-Alt-Delete can be accomplished by pressing and releasing Control, pressing and releasing Alt, and pressing and releasing Delete). This is particularly beneficial for anyone who types using fewer than 10 fingers.
Slow Keys slows down key repeats. This is helpful for people with hand tremors, cerebral palsy, etc.
These two useful options can be accessed as follows:
- Open the System Preferences window
- Open the Universal Access control panel
- Click on the Keyboard tab
Dvorak Keyboard
Dvorak keyboards use more efficient key layouts for typing; for example, all versions put the T, H, and E keys on the home row. Most versions of OS X permit the two-handed Dvorak layout to be substituted for the standard QWERTY layout; some also support modified Dvorak layouts designed for typists who have use of only their right or left hand. Inexpensive key labels can be purchased and placed on any standard keyboard to indicate the Dvorak layout.
To turn on a Dvorak keyboard:
- Open the System Preferences window
- Open the International or Language & Text control panel (depending on your version of OS X)
- Click on the Input Menu or Input Sources tab (depending on your version of OS X)
- Scroll down until you see the Dvorak options and choose the one you want.
Onscreen Keyboard
An onscreen keyboard is a software program that represents the standard keyboard, but can be accessed using the mouse. Note that the keyboard built into Macintosh systems does not support use of Sticky Keys, so it will not be ideal for people who cannot use the standard keyboard at all.
To turn on the onscreen keyboard:
- Open the System Preferences window
- Open the International or Language & Text control panel (depending on your version of OS X)
- Click on the Input Menu or Input Sources tab (depending on your version of OS X)
- Click on the checkbox next to "Keyboard Viewer"
- Close the control panel
- Go to the American flag icon (near the upper right corner) and open the menu
- Make sure "Show Keyboard Viewer" is checked. This will bring up the keyboard.
Monitor Assistance/Alternatives
Cursor Size
Some individuals with low vision may be able to successfully read text, but may have difficulty tracking the cursor. OS X has a setting that allows cursor size to be adjusted.
- Open the System Preferences window
- Open the Universal Access control panel
- Click on the Mouse & Trackpad tab. The Cursor Size setting is near the bottom of the window.
The Zoom feature magnifies text up to 20 times and has several configuration options. However, the magnification quality is quite poor, especially over 4x magnification.
To access Zoom:
- Open the System Preferences window
- Open the Universal Access control panel
- Click on the Seeing tab.
Display Options
The Display Options feature allows users to view most text as white-on-black, or in grayscale. This can be accommodating not only for individuals with low vision, but also for those with learning disabilities.
To access Display Options:
- Open the System Preferences window
- Open the Universal Access control panel
- Click on the Seeing tab.
VoiceOver is a full-featured screen reader designed for blind users. It is also built into the Apple iPhone and iPad.
To turn on VoiceOver on or off, press Cloverleaf-F5. To access Voice Over options:
- Open the System Preferences window
- Open the Universal Access control panel
- Click on the Seeing tab.
Using Built-In Computer AT in Public Computer Labs
Although built-in options can provide benefits to many users in public computer labs, there can be barriers to their implementation. Security software may be set to prevent any access to control panels and other Start menu features. Management software (which lets users choose which applications to run) may not allow access to these features.
This can best be addressed by talking to your information technology (IT) staff members to see what arrangements can be made. Compromises may include:
- Permitting access to built-in utilities on computers that have other assistive technology loaded
- Making built-in utilities available via the software interface that allows users to select other applications
- Having a staff member modify security permissions when users request access to built-in utilities

Dec 27, 2009
For two years as a researcher with security company FireEye, Atif
Mushtaq worked to keep Mega-D bot malware from infecting clients'
networks. In the process, he learned how its controllers operated it.
Last June, he began publishing his findings online. In November, he
suddenly switched from defense to offense. And Mega-D -- a powerful,
resilient botnet that had forced 250,000 PCs to do its bidding -- went
Targeting Controllers
Mushtaq and two FireEye colleagues went after Mega-D's command
infrastructure. A botnet's first wave of attack uses e-mail attachments,
Web-based offensives, and other distribution methods to infect huge
numbers of PCs with malicious bot programs.
The bots receive marching orders from online command and control (C&C)
servers, but those servers are the botnet's Achilles' heel: Isolate
them, and the undirected bots will sit idle. Mega-D's controllers used a
far-flung array of C&C servers, however, and every bot in its army had
been assigned a list of additional destinations to try if it couldn't
reach its primary command server. So taking down Mega-D would require a
carefully coordinated attack.
Synchronized Assault
Mushtaq's team first contacted Internet service providers that
unwittingly hosted Mega-D control servers; his research showed that most
of the servers were based in the United States, with one in Turkey and
another in Israel.
The FireEye group received positive responses except from the overseas
ISPs. The domestic C&C servers went down.

At some point 100 years or so ago, the nuns at St Ignatius in Centralia Pa. decide they liked the spelling of Kenneff, but I have come to a tentative conclusion that it was originally Cunniffe.
My g-grandfather John emigrated to US in 1873 with his mother Ann and her 2 grandchildren Thomas & Agnes O'Brien. The O'brien's mother had died in childbirth in Ireland. I found birth/death records for a Maria Cunniffe married to John O'Brien in Clonfort, Co. Galway in 1867. When John came to Centralia, he married Margaret Horan, whose father had been born in Clonfort. Based on this, I think I have the right family.
US census shows the original bunch as not being able to read or write English, so I think that accounts for the name mangling.
Very interested if any of this matches any Cunniff(e), Conniff(e) history.

I've yet to run into a single person using a shotgun that was legitimately good
I used my first shotgun in FFA and went 30-7. It was the level with the long alley on one side and the construction site on the other. I normally go close to even though so whatever.

Remembering the good old days in GoldenEye am I right YELA lolz
I will admit there is some true to this. I also rarely find a skillful shotgun user (I will admit I will find one occasionally who does a good job of dictating the fight to their advantage) so I mainly try to keep some distance in the confrontation to give me the edge with my AR, SMG.
I will refuse to take this sig down until the Texans win the Superbowl
I've never run into anyone legitimately good.
Until I can play against myself, it will never happen.

I'm not sure how you cant do good with the R870. I almost got got a third EMP on kill confirmed the last time I used R870 on Drone. If someone cant do well with the R870 they just suck.
I dont doubt that there are alot of bad shotgun users, but its so good I dont believe TC that he is yet to run into a guy who doesnt go negative with it.

I played one full team using 870's and tac inserts in league play about a month ago. They pushed our **** in lol. Those are the only people i've ever seen do decent with it. And it was only because of the tac inserts.

That's the main issue I have with it. The only counter is the same gun. It sucks when you HAVE to use it to compete. Note: Any shotty users that say I'm exaggerating with this statement, should think twice.

Then you say you never said it.

Seriously kid I can't take you seriously ever again. You're just butthurt and indulging in illogical whining to feel better.
Yeah, I shotgun. But lately it's only with the KSG and I mastered every weapon type 5 years ago and continue to use all of them to this day--I snipe, I shotgun, I use LMGs, and everything else.
Whining that the weapon is OP is one thing, whining about the people that use it with baseless generalizations, while denying that you did so, is a whole other bag of worms.

Posted January 20, 2013 on AP on Fox
Inter Milan midfielder Wesley Sneijder has agreed to join Turkish club Galatasaray. Galatasaray says on its website that it reached a deal with Sneijder pending a medical, which is expected to take place Monday. The contract is for a reported three and a half years and worth $6.66 million per season. Galatasaray agreed to a transfer fee of $10 million with Inter earlier this month for the Netherlands captain. Sneijder joined Inter Milan in 2009 and has helped it to a number of trophies, notably the treble of the Italian League and Cup and the Champions League in 2010. In November, Inter technical director Marco Branca said Sneijder would not play until he made a decision about his future, with a new deal reportedly requiring him to take a pay cut.

Dodge of the Day: Reporter asks Jay Carney if Obama plans to cut back on lavish vacations and golf trips
**Written by Doug Powers
At Monday's White House press conference, Jay Carney took an approach not unlike yesterday's Durbin strategy when faced with a question that he didn't want to address: Don't answer it.
Transcript by way of the Weekly Standard:
Q All right. I wanted to follow up on this young woman's question about the high unemployment out in places like Colorado, all around the country, especially in the minority communities — exceptionally high unemployment. And when there is government workers who may be furloughed, millions of Americans unemployed, and family budgets that have been cut, how does the President justify lavish vacations and a golf trip to Florida at taxpayer expense? And does he plan to cut back on his travel?
MR. CARNEY: I can tell you that this President is focused every day on policies that create economic growth and help advance job creation. We have presided over the past three years over an economy that's produced over 6.3 million private sector jobs, and we have more work to do. And this President's number-one priority is growth and job creation.
Shorter Carney answers to those two questions: "He doesn't have to," and "no."

Despite the loss of $3
million in state funding promised in July 2008 by then-state Sen. Joseph Bruno,
a $40-million rail-yard project in Mechanicsville, N.Y., is still in the works,
local newspapers report. The new facility is to be built by Pan Am Southern
LLC, a joint venture of Pan Am Railways, formerly Guilford Transportation and
before that the Boston and Maine Railroad, and Norfolk Southern Railway. Boston
and Maine once operated extensive rail yards here, connecting with the Delaware
& Hudson Railway, but those yards were gone by the 1980s.
The city of Winter Haven,
Fla., is moving forward on the Integrated Logistics Center to be developed in
conjunction with the CSX Intermodal Terminal planned for the southern portion
of the city, The News Chief reports. The planning commission discussed during a
workshop Feb. 2 a change in future land use from Institutional-2 as designated
by Polk County to industrial-business park center for the approximately 932
acres. The city annexed the property in 2005 but didn't assign a land use
designation or zoning.
High-speed rail may be
coming down the tracks one day, but the Stanislaus County, Calif., Board of
Supervisors entered into an agreement to plan and develop a regional commuter
rail system that could soon share those tracks, the Turlock Journal reports. The
Board of Supervisors unanimously approved a Memorandum of Understanding to
enter a working group to collaborate with the California High-Speed Rail
Authority that will see the county partner with more than 20 regional entities
from Sacramento County to Merced County.
It's gotten a little
quieter for residents living along the Canadian National Railway in three western
suburbs, the Chicago Tribune reports. A long-anticipated quiet zone in Berwyn,
Riverside and North Riverside, Ill., went into effect Jan. 28, preventing
trains from sounding their horns at nine crossings except in emergencies.
Balfour Beatty Rail has
taken delivery of an Amberg Technologies GRP Track
Measurement System. The
system was purchased from Amberg's North American distribution partner, the Kara Company of
Countryside, Ill. Widely used throughout the rail industries of Europe, Asia
and many other parts of the world, the GRP track measurement system is the most
advanced technology available in its class, Amberg notes, and just recently
made available in North America.
A consortium of
Invensys Rail Corp. (formerly Safetran Systems Corp.), Siemens Mobility and D/A
Builders, LLC, will install ATC utilizing advanced Communications Based Train
Control technology plus a back-up conventional signaling system on the entire
PATH main line network including all central office, wayside and car borne
equipment locations.
Incorporated has been awarded a major contract to provide new rail control and
passenger information systems for the 77-mile Caltrain commuter rail line,
serving the San Francisco peninsula and California's Santa Clara Valley. The
contract was awarded in December by the Peninsula Corridor Joint Powers Board,
the regional authority operating Caltrain.
MARTA has closed a majority of its escalators and is
conducting a comprehensive and independent system-wide review of all 149
escalators in its system. This action is being taken after MARTA recently
discovered that a private contractor had intentionally bypassed safety controls
on an escalator at the Dunwoody rail station.
An independent team of
consultants charged with looking at competitiveness in the U.S. rail industry
has found that railroad rates have been steadily increasing since 2004, with a
particularly steep increase in 2008. But Christensen Associates, Inc., of
Madison, Wis., found that the rate increases were driven by fluctuating fuel
prices and other costs and did not appear to reflect a greater exercise of
railroad market power over captive shippers.
national environmental group with deep pockets and specialized legal expertise
is joining the effort to block a permit for one of the area's biggest development
projects, The Kansas City Star reports. The Natural Resources Defense Council
filed a lawsuit Feb. 1 to halt the environmental permit issued for a rail yard
proposed for southwest Johnson County.
lawsuit is separate from one brought by Hillsdale Environmental Loss Prevention
Inc. and several other plaintiffs. Unlike the earlier lawsuit, BNSF Railway is
not named as a defendant.
defense council's entrance into the case is significant because of the hefty
resources at its disposal. During 2007-08, the organization raised $108
million, according to its tax returns from that year. As of mid-2008, the group
had assets of $186 million.
decision to join the legal dispute "guarantees there will be some funding at
least for the plaintiffs," said John Ragsdale, who has taught environmental law
at the University of Missouri-Kansas City.
like the council have national constituencies with dues paid by thousands of
people, enabling the groups to assemble lots of money with small donations,
Ragsdale said.
of these groups have staffs of attorneys ... that are very, very competent and
skilled," Ragsdale said. "They can bring a strong force to bear."
wants to build what's known as an intermodal hub for transferring freight
arriving on West Coast trains to trucks for shipment elsewhere. The railroad
plans to develop the hub on 492 acres while a private developer builds a nearby
distribution and warehouse complex to store some of the incoming freight. Overall,
the project promises the creation of 13,000 jobs when fully built in about 20
is seeking $50 million in federal stimulus money to get the project started.

How do we determine if our roof is leaking or if our skylight is the problem. We have cedar shake roof 18 yrs old.
- Forum >
- Roofing & Siding >
- leaking roof or skylight
The usual way is to do a water test. the basic tool is a water hose. You start below the suspected area, and slowly work you way up the slope while sweeping the water stream from side to side. Each spot should get 5-20 seconds of water on it before you move on. If flashing is suspected to be leaky, pour the water directly onto the area where the leak is suspected.
Of course, using this method, a second person should be on the inside, watching for leakage. If the leak point is very small, you may never see a leak since it takes a long time for the leak to build up a volume of water that's visible.

Paul Giamatti stars as a struggling lawyer and volunteer wrestling coach who takes in his client's troubled grandson
Entertaining animated feature outing for Nickelodeon's globetrotting family of nature documentary makers. Eco-sermonising mixes with some decent gags as the clan tackle dastardly poachers in the Serengeti
You could be forgiven for thinking that any film featuring songs by Paul Simon, Peter Gabriel, Youssou N'Dour and Sting was bound to end up drowning its audience in a sea of worthy self-righteousness. Nice to report, then, that this Nickelodeon spin-off (which follows the two big screen outings of 'The Rugrats' and 'Hey Arnold! The Movie') owes as much to 'The Simpsons' as to the Discovery Channel, and never lets sententiousness stand in the way of a good fart joke.
The Thornberrys, for the uninitiated, are an endearingly dysfunctional bunch: 12-year old Eliza (voiced by Chabert), decked-out in pigtails and braces, can talk to animals thanks to a shaman's spell. She plays a sort of fag-hag to a flamboyantly camp chimp called Darwin (Kane), while enduring the withering sarcasm of her teen-queen sister Debbie (Harris) and the anarchic antics of her kid brother. Their English blueblood father (Curry) tries to keep his dotty aristocrat parents out of trouble, while shooting wildlife programmes with his wife (Carlisle). Against this lot, the elephant killers and cheeta-nappers are clearly on a hiding to nothing.
It may not pull off any state-of-the art animation coups, but The Wild Thornberrys Movie understands that strong characters and involving storytelling are still the bottom line in a quality kids' film.
