Sep 6, 2010Having seen the whole series, I was pleased to see an improvement over the last series. Better companion, better episodes, and a interesting theme throughout. With Season 4, David managed to hold it together, but the new episodes are generally good. There are some tedious and annoying scenes, but other than that this is some great TV, and well worth seeing.
Jan 7, 2012The best season of Doctor Who ever!!! Season 4 was the lowest point of the new series, a non-existent story arc, mediocre start, a disappointing finish and several horrid episodes. The 2009 Specials didn't fair much better, with The End of Time gaining the reputation for being the DW equivalent to Episode I (but that's probably just me).
The good news was that the series was getting an overhaul, with new cast, new directors, new writers, new producers, and most importantly: a new showrunner. Steven Moffat in my opinion is for the new series, what Terry Nation was for the classic series. An amazing writer that brought into the show a wade array of memorable villains. Naturally him becoming the showrunner was one of the best things to happen to the show. And that's especially true with Season 5. Steven Moffat began the season with the best premiere any show could ask for, The Eleventh Hour, which introduced the new Doctor and companions perfectly and is among my top 20 best episodes. The resulting momentum wasn't lost in the following 12 episodes, most of which were pretty good, 2 were average, and 2 were bad (but not too bad). The season finale, The Big Bang is by far one of the best finales in Doctor Who history, with an amazing script and performances, winning a Hugo award for best dramatic presentation (short form).
The season as a whole consisted of 7 awesome episodes and 4 average-to-subpar episodes. So if you haven't seen the show yet then this is the perfect season to start it off.… Expand
Oct 17, 2010A stunning debut season from new head writer Steven Moffat and new Doctor Matt Smith. Smith settles in brilliantly and shows that he is the Doctor albeit in a very different from David Tennant and Chris Eccelstone. Karen Gillan is perfect and sexy as Amy Pond. A fantastic season that sees the return of the Weeping Angels and Silurians and teases all season with a single question; what is the Pandorica? A high quality season filled with everything that makes Doctor Who great.… Expand
Nov 10, 2010This is an excellent show! and the new doctor, although not David Tennant, is brilliant. I hope this show never goes off the air, I can't get enough of it.
Jul 3, 2011Although inconsistent standard of Episodes, the Head Writer Steven Moffat showcased brilliance (except 'The Beast Below') all the way through, the Crack in the Wall was a great premise but was obvious the last two Episodes would be dedicated towards it. The Structure of the Plot was flawless, it fooled me what this 'Perception Filter' Business was and decided not to conclude to it. Altogether, the Vortex Manipulator was a cop out end to this AMAZING plot but was blown out the water by AMAZING Episodes like 'Vincent and the Doctor', 'Victory of the Daleks', 'The Hungry Earth', 'Cold Blood' and the brilliant season opener 'The Eleventh Hour'. The greatest series of Doctor Who since the revival!… Expand
Dec 4, 2010Well, thank god. This show had pretty much become an embarrassment to all British TV under Russell T Davies, culminating in last year's utterly horrendous specials. Thankfully Steven Moffat, as head writer and executive producer, has gotten rid of all the disgusting cloying emotionalism, manipulative nonsense, terrible plotting, pathetic direction and soap-opera tone that seemed to plague the RTD years. Perhaps once all the tasteless fanboys have gotten over the transition, Doctor Who can go back to being appropriate for ALL ages again, instead of just being targeted at moody teenagers?
But enough complaining! The fifth season of the revived series has been brilliant on all fronts.
The fresh Doctor, Matt Smith ditches Tennant's forced wackiness and forced seriousness, in favour of a much subtler and more subdued approach that deserves to make him a favourite among all age groups. He's NATURALLY strange - strange face, strange voice, strange physicality - and exudes a wholly natural, seamless eccentricity that we haven't really had since the days of Tom Baker (no disrespect to Davison, C. Baker, McCoy, McGann or Eccleston's lovely portrayals (yes, Colin and McGann were really good in their audio plays)). Instead of conforming to a range of very specific acting tropes, he's good at sliding around between them, conveying lots of mixed emotions simultaneously. Of course, it helps that the character of his Doctor in the scripts is massively improved as well - a return to the zany professor of Classic Who, as opposed to the moody graphic novel superhero Ten seemed to become.
As for the rest of the cast? Karen Gillan is fun to watch and plays up the amazing chemistry between Amy and the Doctor to a great extent, even in the face of her rather vague characterization. Arthur Darvill as her nice-guy boyfriend Rory is effortlessly hilarious and sympathetic - a perfect piece of casting there. And Alex Kingston infuses River Song with just the right balance of RAGE-inducing smugness ("Spoilers!") and femme-fatale charisma.
You can spot a noticeable rise in the standard of writing this season too. Funnily enough, in the RTD years, it wasn't RTD himself producing most of the embarassing rubbish. It was the rest of the writers (not including Moffat or Paul Cornell, of course). But this year, we had a pair of brilliant efforts from guest writers Simon Nye and Richard Curtis, a very fun companion-lite episode from the usually subpar Gareth Roberts, and a mostly tolerable story set in Venice from Toby Whithouse (who did the rather naff School Reunion one with Sarah Jane). Let's just try to forget Victory of the Daleks (which shouldn't be too hard as it was pretty damn forgettable to begin with. I don't mind the new Daleks though!).
Steven Moffat's new approach to Who storytelling has proved a success so far, doing away with RTD's "hint at the season finale" gimmick in favour of a slow-burning, intrigue-laden arc plot that seems to extend across multiple seasons. Unlike the writers of a certain popular American serial that concluded on a flat note this year, Moffat has a very clear knowledge of where he's taking this all (having possibly planned it as far back as 2008 when River made her first appearance) so we can be sure that the inevitable revelation surrounding her true connection to the Doctor, the nature of the Silence, and the ultimate significance of Amy, will be a jaw-dropping one.
Congratulation must also go to everyone else involved (save that trollop who laid Graham Norton over The Time of Angels). New cameras and new directors made this season utterly gorgeous, freeing it of that cheap look that it's had since 2005 (when the camera was like an abused child). The new TARDIS set is stunning and a hell of a lot nicer to look at than that ugly coral one. Murray Gold's score is much more reserved now and complements the action rather than competing with it (and the new theme tune is much more appropriate to the tone of the show, even if it still doesn't compare with Delia's). And to top it all off, even the new CGI opening titles, with that stormy time vortex, make nicer viewing than the slipstream of alien vomit we had before.
So, in summary, brilliant. Doctor Who is in safe hands, the safest it's been in a long time. And, phwoar - does that Christmas special look brilliant or what? A Who Xmas special that's actually about Xmas. Incredible. Moffat had better stay on for a very long time, and so had Smith.… Expand
Mar 23, 2011Amazing! The writing in this series is the best it has ever been. Plus, great performances from Matt Smith and other cast members. And the soundtrack is incredible! Way to go Moffat and team
Sep 3, 2011Hands down the best season of Doctor Who so far. Moffat is a clever writer, with episodes that make you realize that The Doctor is more than just a silly man with a time machine. Sure, its ridiculous, but if you're bashing this season for being overly ridiculous, you should step back and realize that you're watching a show starring a man named "The Doctor" who is a time traveling alien called a Time Lord, with two hearts and a sonic screwdriver that can basically do anything, and can't die because he just turns into a different person basically. If that's not ridiculous, you have no business watching this show. As a friend of mine said, The Doctor's greatest tool is his cartoon resourcefulness. Every episode in this season is brilliant, Matt Smith is an incredible actor, and everything is so shiny and fancy, not cheap-feeling like seasons before. I'm glad Moffat took the reigns. He's a brilliant writer and is turning the show into something great and its never been before.… Expand
Dec 28, 2012After David Tennant was gone from the show I was concerned that I wouldn't like the next Doctor, but Matt Smith manages to pull it off well and put his own spin on the Character. Amy is the strongest companion since Rose Tyler, Rory is kind of weak in this season (although I like him more in later seasons). This season takes the show in a more "Tim Burton-esk" fantasy and steam-punk direction which is an interesting direction for the show.… Expand
Apr 14, 2013Joshua Jacobi is well known person in Texas area. He is man of great heart, I definitely want to say. His intelligence, experience, mentality are something different than other. Please give him a chance to come in TV show. I hope the Christmas episode makes up for an above-average Doctor so far. Jacobi can make a episode more successful. We are looking forward to hearing from authority.
Sep 29, 2014this is on par with seasons 1 and 3.. brilliant, hands down amazing. Matt Smith is the new doctor and swings into action just as well as tom baker did, this man is the doctor, the opening was fantastic, Amy's Choice being my favourite of the season however closely behind is the Pandorica opens and the big band, aswell as vincent and the doctor, not as good as season 3, but on par with season 1, amy is fiiinnnee. rory is pretty cool and matt smith was a brilliant choice for the doctor.. to this day he is still My doctor, althought I started watching when I was 4 with chris eccleston, matt made me love the series.… Expand
Mar 31, 2014A brilliant series and the one which got me hooked on to become a Whovian. I really love Matt Smith's Doctor and I feel it well written most of the time.
You must watch it.
It's family-friendly and adult-pleasing, over-the-top and nightmarish, witty and deep all at the same time.
Truth is there's nothing off in either Smith's infectiously enthusiastic spin on the good Doctor or in newly installed executive producer Steven Moffat's confident storytelling.
There's no darkness looming just yet, and the season premiere is almost too jokey at times--certain comedic bits are stretched longer than they should be. Still, this is quite a bold and energetic (if not frenetic) new edition of Doctor Who. Hang on to the TARDIS, fans, it looks like we're in for quite a ride.

Hey guys, so I thought this might be a fun little chat topic. I'm not sure if I just haven't been keeping up with things, but it seems like Disney hasn't been doing special events like they use to. If you don't know what I'm referring to, I'm talking about the events where there would be packages available, each offering different amenities and admission to the event itself.
Some of the ones I attended were:
Haunted Mansion Holiday Special Event
Tower of Terror Special Event
Indiana Jones Special Event
To be honest, I really enjoyed these events. It was something my mom and I always did together and it was really a special treat to have a night out with her like that. I wish Disney would do more events like this. So I'm curious about everyone's experiences, or even photos I think Disney missed a big opportunity by not having a special event for World of Color.

Former BCCI president and current principal advisor to the ICC president, IS Bindra, has requested the ICC to conduct an enquiry on N Srinivasan and bar him from the ICC until the completion of the investigation. Mr. Srinivasan has stepped aside from his duties as BCCI president till an internal probe on IPL corruption was completed. In an open letter, which was released to the media in London on Wednesday, Bindra pointed out the clauses that states that the directors should not use their position with the ICC for personal advantage or gain. "It gives me great pain to write this letter, especially because the person who is at the centre of the controversy happens to be heading the same board of which I have been a member for the last 38 years and served as its President," he wrote in his letter. "However I have always believed that the game is greater than any individual and the truth must come to light," Bindra, a former advisor with the ICC, added. During the period of the mid 90's, Mr. Bindra, along with Jagmohan Dalmiya, helped cricket turn into a highly successful business property. He has been a vocal critic of Mr. Srinivasan and was the first board member to demand his resignation when the crisis broke out. Mr. Bindra has also cited several instances of impropriety by Mr. Srinivasan. He pointed out that the arrest of Mr. Gurunath Meiyappan, Mr. Srinivasan's son-in-law, for betting allegations in the IPL, meant that Mr. Srinivasan was in breach of several codes that ICC directors need to adhere to under the code of ethics. Mr. Bindra claimed that Mr. Srinivasan was in breach of clause 2.1 which states: "Directors shall act in an ethical manner and shall not engage in conduct that gives the appearance of impropriety." Mr. Bindra also said that Mr. Srinivasan was also in breach of clause 7 of the code. This deals with 'Betting, Gaming and Gambling'. In sub-section 7.2 and sub-para d, the code states: "It is not permitted and a Director shall be in breach of this Code if a member of his immediate family (being a spouse, parent, sibling, son or daughter) has a controlling interest in a betting business, a substantial relationship with a betting business or is employed in the day to day operational control of a betting business." There have been no reports so far of Mr. Meiyappan running a betting business but since he has been charged by the police in betting, this clause may be applied to Mr. Srinivasan. Mr. Bindra also pointed out that Mr. Srinivasan could be in a potential conflict of interest situation if he attends the meeting of the Finance and Commercial affairs (F&CA) committee if he attends the conference. Mr. Srinivasan is an independent member of the committee. Mr. Bindra also wrote that Star, the current broadcasting partner of the ICC, through one of its channels (Life OK) is a sponsor of the Chennai Super Kings Franchise, a team owned by the company controlled by Mr. Srinivasan. Star Sports is broadcast partner for all major ICC events till 2015 and the F&CA committee has been deliberating about the renewal of rights. The committee will soon advise the ICC on future course of action. Bindra said he and numerous cricket lovers across the globe have reservations about Srinivasan attending the London meetings. "In your capacity as the Board of Directors, it is not only an obligation but a sacrosanct responsibility to administer the application and implementation of the Ethics Code. As you will no doubt be aware, the ICC Code of Ethics sets out a number of rules that govern the conduct of Mr Srinivasan as an ICC Director," Bindra, the current chairman of the Punjab Cricket Association (PCA) wrote. Mr. Bindra also pointed out a much known conflict of interest in situation regarding Mr. Srinivasan, in which he owned an IPL franchise through his company, India Cements, despite being a BCCI office-bearer and thereby also an ICC member. This was in breach of clause 4.1 which states: "Directors must be free from any influence which might interfere or appear to interfere with the proper and efficient discharge of their duties, or which might be inconsistent with their duty of loyalty to the ICC. It is also the duty of Directors not to use their position with the ICC for personal advantage or gain. To that end no Director shall have an undisclosed conflict of interest." "You would agree, with great remorse, that cricket, once a gentleman's game has now become a businessman's game. It's no longer played by the book but by the bookies. Previously the most despised three letter word used to be "tax'. Now its replaced by "bet" or worse still "fix". It's time then that somebody stands up, musters the courage and puts the love of the game above everything else and presents a complaint against the current President of the BCCI Mr N Srinivasan," Bindra stated.

Well, this happened. Now the real game begins!
World of Warcraft: The Greatest ORPG of All Time
In case you were unaware, I've been playing Warlords of Draenor. I sat out the two prior expansions, so this is my first time returning to World of Warcraft in several years. A lot of changes that have become commonplace for many are new for someone like me. Overtime, my close knit collective of fellow players have turned into a diaspora. Yet, assuming same-faction, that's a far easier problem to remedy with cross-server play. With so little need to occupy the same virtual spaces, World of Warcraft has secured its title as greatest ORPG of them all.
To me, when I think of classic examples of the genre, my favorite is Phantasy Star Online for the Dreamcast. In a time where consoles not only were not online, but were on 56k if anything, it made sense that PSO was mostly a lobby-based world. Rather than meeting out in the wilds, players met in a single, small space and joined up there before adventuring out.
Without question, World of Warcraft began its life as a MMORPG. Azeroth was a living, breathing place (assuming you disregard the "only stands in one place" nature of most MMO NPCs), and players met one another adventuring out in the wilds. They formed bonds, groups, and guilds. They traded and warred. Reputations rose and fail, categorizing some as elitists, others as trolls, and still others as casuals.
I won't waste your time and argue this was a better or worse time for the game. The only fact that transcends biases is that it was a different time in the World of Warcraft. The game has radically changed, evolved, and mutated into something else entirely since then. The aspects of massivity have largely been pushed aside to focus on other things. In doing so, Blizzard has created one of the premier solo RPG experiences of our time, and a game that is still startlingly competent when it comes to cooperative play.
In celebrating the game's tenth year, it becomes painfully clear that this is a game with content that has built up and been honed over a decade. It shows. When it comes to collecting or questing, I doubt there are many games that can compare. EverQuest, maybe, but that likes the feature-rich precision of a Blizzard team that will throw the bath out with the bathwater if they think it will improve their game.
Warlords of Draenor brings even more content. It is also a marginally more competent solo experience for those still willing to somewhat interact with strangers. After a brief flirtation with their past, the return of personal looting to the game's five man dungeons puts out the final candle in favor of WoW being a social experience. The game's dungeons are perfectly tolerable to do in absolute silence, and now the only area of contention – the loot – is no longer a source of stress or debate. Though 'grouping' is still the term they use, WoW's dungeons are more solo friendly than ever.
To me, that's a good thing, if only because it better reflects the rest of the experience. World of Warcraft has perfected its multimillion subscriber-fueled niche within the gaming world, and secured its place in both pop culture and in games culture. For a small minority, the game will continue chugging along as a "that which once was" reminder of days which only exist on a calendar they threw out years ago. World of Warcraft has not gone gentle, but it has become a mostly gentle experience. Despite a community of curmudgeons, elitists, and trolls that still poke their heads out from their queues or ladders to remind you of their existence every once and a while, the game has never been a better blend of accessibility, varying points of access, and some degree of challenge.
World of Warcraft is a massive success, that has massively altered the course of the MMORPG genre. For better or for worse, it has changed itself and managed to stay relevant despite a decade of competition and industry-wide change. Blizzard no longer has to concern themselves with being massive because the only heavenly body left with enough gravity to shake their orbit is World of Warcraft itself. Outside of collapsing into a black hole, this game has achieved a permanent place in the sky.
I am not convinced it is all that Massively-Multiplayer anymore, but a decade of success, an incredibly well-received new expansion, and a newly re-assembled fanbase of ten million gamers all hungry for more make that opinion a non-factor. There are ten years of proof that lend their weight behind the notion that World of Warcraft is massive (economically, culturally, etc). That's all Blizzard needs to justify the path they've taken the game down, whether we keep following or not.
Book of Life (Movie, 2014)
I don't often commit to seeing a movie in theaters without knowing something about it. Movies are just too expensive to take chances on. I had heard good things about Book of Life and was struck by an interview with the main person behind it on NPR. While Mexican culture is mostly unfamiliar to me, I have a strange fascination with more ancient cultures, like the Aztec and Mayans, who undoubtedly have influenced Mexican culture alongside Spanish and Catholic influences. Knowing Book of Life was a visual film about the Day of the Dead, that alone was enough to get me interested.
First things first: the plot to this movie is dull. It centers on a love triangle where two local boys, one the son of a famous hero and the other the son of a famous bullfighter, fight for the right to marry the town's most beautiful daughter. It's a cliche and terrible plot device that has worn out its welcome even with superior character development, let alone the character development in this film, which is at a minimum given the focus on visuals, jokes, and keeping it kid-friendly. Thankfully the movie does try to subvert the plot in a nod to, you know, women being human beings capable of running their own lives, but it still grates.
Humor is where Book of Life hooks you. Yes, the visuals are amazing and the art style offers a unique glimpse of Mexican culture – you won't go wrong with them. The humor, however, gets you laughing almost immediately when you are told that Mexican is the center of the world and the map depicting this puts a large mustache squarely on the country as a nod to its rich, well-coiffed facial hair history. Some jokes are a bit manic and some come at the expense of the film's excruciatingly awkward soundtrack (Radiohead's Creep as a song about unrequited love with a light Spanish guitar flair? WHAT?), but they all have legs. The film also doesn't beat you over the head with them, which would've been an easy way for the Book of Life to cross out of Disney/Pixar land into the straight-to-DVD land of children's movies.
Front and center, Book of Life does a fantastic job of showcasing the fantastical aspects of Mexican culture. The betting between the film's two god characters, the journey into the culture's two underworlds, and a large cast of psychopomps that give the second half of the film a new life all make this a worthy representative of a sadly underrepresented culture here in North America.
You won't drop dead from the awesomeness, but, if you do, there may be a way to fight your way back to the land of the living. You'll certainly want to because this movie belongs in the Land of the Remembered and it'll need people like us spreading word of its many merits!

Core to Kusum's practice is the idea of intervention, displacing normal expectations of female body and voice. In these often site specific performances her incursions are brief, extreme and physical. The female scream takes a much heavier tone; more like metal than hysteria, dragging the audience into a harder, faster display of screaming, amplification and feedback.
Intervention and feedback continue to resound across her installation practice in explorations of the relationship of voice to space, materials, and media.
Her work has been included in at numerous exhibitions, festivals and events including Primavera: Young Australian Artists, MCA Sydney 2013, ISSUE Project Room NYC, Superdeluxe at Artspace for the 17th Biennale of Sydney, Liquid Architecture AU, the NOWnow AU, N.K Berlin, UrBANGUILD JPN, Lines of Flight Festival NZ , and Dogodek: The Event, 29th Biennial of Graphic Art, Slovenia.
Kusum has on-going collaborative music projects with Sean Baxter and Peter Blamey in duo Hard Hat.

This is a beautiful fixture and the quality is Outstanding! It's extremely heavy and solid construction! The box and packaging was very good , however upon removing all protective packaging I soon realized that one of the glass panels was cracked. I contacted customer service and they sent a replacement fixture right away! I received it very quickly and the electrician was able to hang it before he completed he work at my home! It's a beautiful statement piece of art outside my front door!
Loved the fixture. Unfortunately it came damaged. (broken glass) Most likely in shipment. I have seen many times how shippers carelessly toss and turn their packages in vehicles, completely disregarding "Fragile. Handle with care" warnings. Too bad.

Meet Sally the Cow — Alton's After-Showby Nikhita Mahtani in Shows, June 22nd, 2014
The Cutthroat Kitchen competitors are no strangers to host Alton Brown's diabolical sabotages – from ingredient swaps to alternate sources of heat, there's no limit to the amount of tricks up his sleeve. Still, no one could have prepared for Sally, a mechanical cow that had udders underneath that one chef had to milk in order to get the dairy needed to create a Tres Leches cake, which involves three types of milk.
"Here's the terrible thing. We didn't label them either," said Alton to Judge Jet Tila. "So they really had to know their dairies." Chef Shane was given this sabotage and made an ice-cream, which turned out to be a very smart move. "The cool thing about ice-cream is that it makes your mouth cold and once your mouth is cold you don't notice certain things in the rest of the food," said Alton on this week's After-Show. 'If I didn't trust the rest of my food, say my cake, I would so make you an ice-cream!" Ultimately, Chef Shane won the show and Chef Candace was eliminated, on account of her 'cake' being more like a crepe. "It just doesn't work, man," said Judge Tila.
Click the play button above to hear more from Alton and Jet, and to see Chef Shane try to milk Sally up close.

The show is great. I love it. The sabotages are getting better and better, but the contestants are awful. Hey seem to be getting worse and worse. I hate the ones who say, "I'm only here to prove cute people can cook". The best one was when the judges competed.
i would love to see the contestants have all flour, eggs, and milk taken and have them use pancake mix instead.
No new episodes posted since June??? The best part of the show is coming here afterwards!!!
What would be more devilish at cutthroat kitchen?
SIBLINGS special LOL
Whole family love this show!

In an editorial, the Chicago Tribune says resignations of key leaders, mandatory meetings and questionable management decisions by the central administration may erode the goals of an ambitious program to create 100 new independent schools within the next five years. The newspaper says overly involved bureaucrats could threaten the potential of new school groups to "reinvent education."

Skillet Apple Pork Chops
With fresh sage and apple, this dish is tasty, easy and done in a flash. The recipe says garlic butter, but I keep a jar with three cloves of garlic covered in olive oil and use that instead. The garlic oil is delicious for salads also. —Lorraine Caland, SHUNIAH, Ontario
4 Servings
Prep/Total Time: 30 min.
4 boneless pork loin chops (4 ounces
1 medium apple, peeled and sliced
1 tablespoon canola oil
1/2 cup unsweetened apple juice
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1 garlic clove, minced
1 teaspoon rubbed sage
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
In a large skillet, cook pork chops and apple in oil over medium heat
for 8-10 minutes or until a thermometer inserted in pork reads
145°. Remove and keep warm. Add remaining ingredients to pan.
Bring to a boil; cook until liquid is reduced by half. Serve with
chops and apple. Yield: 4 servings.

What future for vertically integrated energy companies?
4th September 2014
The Big 6 British energy companies are under sustained attack from politicians and the media, and the Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) inquiry is being urged to consider whether they should be broken up. Unsurprisingly the companies have been putting up a robust defense of their conduct, and have argued that the vertical structures are in the interests of customers. These arguments matter, but they are not the only ones – or indeed necessarily the most important. This short paper will...
The Return of the CEGB - Britain's central buyer model
26th June 2014
Though no part of any grand plan, and certainly not by intention, the British energy market has morphed from a liberalized quasi-competitive market into one that is driven by the state. It has happened largely by accident rather than design, but it also has a remorseless political economy logic behind it. It is the unintended consequence of a long series of well-intended interventions. The result is closer to the old nationalized industry command-and-control structures, which had the Central...
Ukraine, Europe and Energy
1st June 2014
After a short pause, the borders of east and southeast Europe are again in flux, as they have been on and off since the early Russian people established Kiev as their capital. Crimea was annexed by Catherine the Great. The British and others fought the Crimean War in the nineteenth century and Russia's imperial expansion towards the Balkans helped to trigger the First World War. Stalin created the greatest Russian empire – the Soviet Union – which Gorbachev lost. Putin regards...

The current situation and mid-term prospects for European electricity markets
28th January 2014
It is fashionable to state that there are three objectives of European energy policy: security of supply, low carbon and affordability. Yet this "trilemma"—how to achieve all of these three simultaneously—is far from straightforward. None of the three objectives is well defined. What does security mean? Some suggest this means self-sufficiency, yet a moment's reflection tells us that if in the last century Europe had pursued this, then not much economic development...

All change: the Unfolding Geopolitics of Oil and Gas in the US and the Middle East
12th December 2013
The geopolitics of oil has remained remarkably static for the last 40 years since the Iranian Revolution at the end of the 1970s. The stylized facts have been that the US would have to import ever more oil to meet its ever growing demand, and that the Middle East would increase its dominance. To meet this demand, the US remained committed to keeping the Gulf open, and to support Saudi Arabia as its key ally against the pariah state of Iran. The established order relied on three related...
How long can interest rates remain low?
22nd November 2013
We live in extraordinary times. Real interests are negative, have been negative for several years and the forward guidance from central bankers suggests that they believe they are going to stay that way for several years to come. Yet this is a very unnatural state of affairs: the long run interest rate should roughly approximate the growth rate. Assuming that this is about two per cent then that too is roughly what the long run interest rate should be.
British Infrastructure and the Gradual Return of the State
14th November 2013
The state of British infrastructure is the source of almost continuous study and criticism. There is now a host of new demands in water, energy, transport and communications which require a step change in investment. The Coalition government has made a series of reforms—to planning, finance, and the setting of priorities—which have been drawn together in National Infrastructure Plan statements. A number of high-profile and large-scale projects have been advanced...

He backed the car onto the street and drove to Albany Hospital. They both could walk to the emergency room, which was accumulating assorted brawling louts and burn victims and skewed drivers like Roscoe, all celebrating peace with blood and fire and pain. As a nurse started to take Elisha off to stanch his bleeding, Roscoe asked, "What's this quitting stuff?"
"Believe me, it's real," Elisha said. "Unless you want to give Patsy a heart attack, don't you run off just yet."
"What the hell are you talking about?"
"I'm doing a fadeaway," Elisha said. "Time's up."
"Suddenly there's a retirement epidemic," Roscoe said. "Do you suppose the Japs put something in our drinking water?"
He felt new pain in his stomach, and his head ached from the resurrection of old doubt. You think you've done something radical and it turns out you've done nothing at all.
* * *
Roscoe recognized a nun sitting in the next bay of the emergency room, Arlene Flinn from Arbor Hill, a Sister of the Sacred Heart, hundred and one pounds, tiny, dark-haired, sharp-nosed beauty in adolescence, when Roscoe had a crush on her. Those once-spunky eyes were now reshaped behind spectacles, her hair hidden under her starched wimple.
"Arlene?" he said. "Is that you?"
"Oh, Roscoe," she said. "Roscoe Conway."
Her tone of voice suggested to Roscoe that she remembered the day he caught her in his arms and kissed her by the holy-water fountain in St. Joseph's Church. Two days later she went off to the nunnery-the beginning of your control over women, Ros.
"Are you ill, Arlene?" he asked her.
"A toothache," she said. "The pain is horrible." She was humming something that sounded like a Benediction hymn-"O Salutaris," was it?
"How's your father?" he asked.
"Oh dear, my father," Arlene said. "He died six months ago."
"I didn't know. I never saw it in the paper."
"He died in Poughkeepsie. My brother didn't want it publicized."
"I knew he was down there. I'm sorry, Arlene."
"He hated all you politicians," she said. "Especially Patsy McCall."
"We offered him anything he wanted when he came out of jail. He wouldn't talk to us."
"Could you blame him?"
Roscoe chose not to answer. Arlene's father, Artie Flinn, had been the chief plugger for the Albany baseball pool, which Patsy ran. The federal DA indicted Artie when he was caught with plugged pool sheets and heavy money, and he got six years, the scapegoat. Patsy took care of Artie's wife and family while Artie was inside, but Artie came out Patsy's enemy. Also, he went strange, took to jumping off tall buildings into the river, holding the pet pigeon he brought home from jail, and letting the pigeon go before he hit the water. People told him he could fly like his pigeon, but in one jump a piece of sunken metal sliced off part of his left leg. He believed the leg would grow back, and when it didn't, he punched holes in it with an ice pick and had to be put away.
"I see your brother Roy from time to time," Roscoe said.
"I don't see him," Arlene said. "I don't approve of that newspaper he runs. It's scandalous. Roscoe, where's that dentist? I can't stand this pain."
"Have a swig of this and hold it on the tooth." He handed her his flask of compassionate gin.
She held the gin, then swallowed it, took a second, squidged her cheek and held it, swallowed it, "Sweet Mother, Roscoe, this doesn't help a bit," then a third gin, and he told her to keep the flask as they took him for X-rays of his rib cage.
"When are you going to get this holy woman a dentist?" Roscoe asked the nurse.
"He's on the way," the nurse said.
Roscoe's X-rays were negative, and a young intern suggested an ice bag for his stomach and gave him a packet of pills for his blood pressure. "You'll be sore, but nothing's broken and we don't see any bleeding."
Roscoe saw Veronica standing by a half-open curtain in the bay where Elisha lay on a stretcher. Her long blond hair was wrapped into a quick knot at the back of her head, she wore no makeup and was barelegged in low heels and a candy-striped summer dress. Roscoe thought she looked sublime.
"What's the verdict?" he asked her.
She kissed his cheek. "They're taking him upstairs for the stitches. How are your bruises?"
Roscoe patted his gut. "With this padding it takes quite a whack to do me any damage."
"If Elisha has a concussion," Veronica said, "they'll keep him overnight."
A nurse came to wheel Elisha out.
"Are you all right?" Elisha asked Roscoe.
"Better than you," Roscoe said. "Artie Flinn's daughter, Arlene, is here with a toothache. She's a nun."
"Is that Artie Flinn from the baseball pool?" Veronica asked.
"It is."
"Artie was not one of our finest hours," Elisha said. "What's he doing?"
"He died in Poughkeepsie six months ago," Roscoe said.
"Tragic," Elisha said. "We couldn't protect him. I never knew his daughter."
"I had a crush on her in school," Roscoe said. "My behavior drove her into the nunnery."
"He's bragging again," Veronica said.
"I'll catch up with you two after your stitches," Roscoe said.
In the waiting room Arlene was walking in circles, waving Roscoe's flask, still singing her hymn, very loud: "...Quae coeli pandis ostium; Bella premunt hostilia..." She was off balance from the drink, and a nurse was about to take her in hand when she whirled away and backhanded the nurse's jaw with Roscoe's flask. "Where are you, Jesus?" she called out. "I'm in pain. Quae coeli pandis ostium..."

Holder: Heroin an urgent 'public health crisis'
Attorney General Eric Holder on Monday called the increase in heroin-related deaths an "urgent and growing public health crisis" and said first responders should carry with them a drug that can reverse the effects of an overdose.
Associated Press
Attorney General Eric Holder on Monday called the increase in heroin-related deaths an "urgent and growing public health crisis" and said first responders should carry with them a drug that can reverse the effects of an overdose.
The video message posted on the Justice Department's website reflects the federal government's concern about the growing prevalence of heroin and prescription painkillers' abuse.
The number of overdose deaths involving heroin increased by 45 percent between 2006 and 2010, according to the White House Office of National Drug Control Policy, and several state governors have recently drawn attention to the impact of heroin abuse in their communities.
"Addiction to heroin and other opiates, including certain prescription pain-killers, is impacting the lives of Americans in every state, in every region, and from every background and walk of life -- and all too often, with deadly results," Holder said in the message.
The attorney general's public support for an antidote that could be used to rescue overdosing drug users mirrors the position of the White House drug policy office, which has also urged all first responders to have the medication on hand. At least 17 states and the District of Columbia allow naloxone -- commonly known by the brand name Narcan -- to be distributed to the public, and bills are pending in some states to increase access to it.
Advocates say Narcan, which comes in a spray and injectable form, has the potential to save many lives if administered within a certain window. But critics fear that making the antidote too accessible could encourage drug use.
Holder said law enforcement is combatting the overdose problem, including by cutting off the supply chain that illicitly furnishes prescription painkillers to drug addicts. But he said more work is needed to prevent and treat drug addiction.
"Confronting this crisis will require a combination of enforcement and treatment. The Justice Department is committed to both," he said.
Bill Piper, director of national affairs for the Drug Policy Alliance, a group that advocates against what it sees as "the excesses" of the war on drugs, said in addition to promoting broader access to Narcan, the Justice Department should also back better education about heroin abuse and promote "Good Samaritan" laws that protect from prosecution individuals who call police to report an overdose. The organization said in a statement that it believes the antidote should be made available to anyone who might be in a position to witness an overdose, such as a friend or relative of an addict.
