It's no puzzle why 'Pushmo World' is so much fun - 0 Comments
"Pushmo" originally debuted on the 3DS, and is the kind of puzzle game that works amazingly well on a handheld gaming system but doesn't seem like a good fit for a home console. Unlike "Tetris", which is a single puzzle that can last as long as you continue to solve it, "Pushmo" is divided into separate puzzles. Think of it as a crossword book, with a new puzzle every page, or, in the game's case, every level.

Sorry, it's been a while. But it's 8.37 on a Saturday morning, I'm watching Jean Vigo's 'A Propos de Nice' (a dialogue-free short film about French people being happy, any five minutes of which are better than 'Inception' – which is already very good, but Vigo doesn't need CGI to turn a Gallic city upside down), and for some reason I want to blog again.
No big promises – but if you join me in the comments, I'll be grateful and try to write more often.
My thoughts this weekend:
The proposed North Carolina constitutional amendment to ban recognition of same-sex partnerships is antithetical to the best of what the US stands for in terms of personal liberty and the pursuit of happiness; it is opposed to the spirit of compassion and respect and love for neighbor that are at the heart of the Christian teaching that everyone who supports the amendment cites as their reason for doing so; even while its proponents believe (or say they believe) the amendment protects their own marriages, if passed it will actually actively hurt people who only want to be allowed to have a measure of protection and recognition for the love they share, and therefore it follows will in reality undermine community as the foundation of society; it continues a tragic tradition of fear being used to oppress people who are already marginalized; it serves no positive purpose and in fact reinforces the social structural realities that lead to stories such as this one.
Groups like Believe Out Loud, Equality NC, and Faith in America are good resources for information and how to take action, but I'd want to emphasize one thing that is often, by my sights, neglected in anti-homophobia/pro-humanity activism: Genuine dialogue. I changed my mind about theology and sexuality partly through relationships with people wiser and more experienced than I, partly through academic reflection, and partly through my own experience. This seems to me to fit with the Wesleyan quadrilateral of engaging scripture, reason, tradition and experience as we seek to discern what is right, among other historic Christian ways of interpreting the world. It is not a betrayal of Christian principle to be open to dialogue with people with whom you disagree. It has a long and noble history. I'm happy to talk with anyone who wants to know where I stand, what I think, and why I believe that a serious conversation about sexuality and spirituality is not just important for the sake of addressing the injustice of inequality and homophobia, but for the future of peace on earth. I'll write more about this later; for now, I want to invite a dialogue; and to ask you to seriously consider how we might persuade proponents of the anti-LGBTQ amendment that it is actually in their interests to vote against it.

When I was growing up, I was always afraid of violence. northern Ireland was a European centre of politically-motivated killing for most of my childhood. Politicians and public officials were killed all the time. Political activists who espoused violence were often killed too. And people who had no direct involvement in either politics or violence were caught up in it, going about their business, killed in bus stations or pubs or on the street. Nearly 4000 dead in around 25 years of intensive violence, perpetuated in the cause of two competing ideologies: should northern Ireland stay part of the United Kingdom, or be reunified with the Irish Republic, along with the attendant questions of human rights, equality, historic injustice, and the kind of stake our people would have in our own society.
We took the rhetoric of 'targeting' political opponents beyond the dehumanising manifestation currently alive in US culture, and finding its horrific expression in the Arizona shootings this weekend; some of our current political representatives actually killed people themselves. Anyone who worked for the state – police officers, civil servants, census takers – could be considered a legitimate target by Irish Republican militants; the daily nerve-wrack of checking under the car for a bomb became a fact of life. And despite the protestations of some historical revisionists, for many Protestants, their religion and ethnicity seemed to be enough of a reason for them to be living in fear. At the same time, the Irish Republican and nationalist community often found itself repressed by the state, living under suspicion, and abused into second class citizen status; pro-British militants killed many people just because they were Catholics.

Hearing Stanley Kubrick's voice on the new Criterion edition of his coruscating anti-war melodrama 'Paths of Glory' is like listening to a ghost; not because the director has been dead for over a decade, but because he said so little in public when he was alive. It's one of the characteristic delights of a marvelous disc that provides thoughtful context for a film that was so dangerous to Gallic pride that it couldn't be seen in France for over twenty years after its first release in 1957. It's a powerful, painful experience to watch; a story of true horror – on the Front, and in the chateaux occupied by sneering generals playing chess with life while Kirk Douglas tries to save his men from the evil that distorted notions of honor breed.
Posted in Cinema, Non-violence
The first scene of Nagisa Oshima's 'Merry Christmas, Mr Lawrence' (new on DVD and Blu-Ray from Criterion) is occupied with the horror of a soldier being forced to cut his intestines open as a punishment for being in love with another man. The last image of the film is the smiling face of a soldier the night before his execution, beaming a greeting of filial affection to a former enemy. We're in a POW camp run under the auspices of the Japanese military, where Allied soldiers are half-subjected to, and half-ignored by an honor code that proposes self-disembowelment as the response, it appears, to just about any infraction. In between the attempted seppuku and the smiling greeting, the adorable Tom Conti reflects poetically on the mutually assured idiocy of war, Ryuichi Sakamoto gets angry, and then gets healed while his fascinating and eventually ubiquitous score overplays but not so much that it bothers, and gorgeous burnt light provides a mystical hue to what is ultimately a nightmare that becomes a dream and then finally a reality the audience always wanted: reconciliation between people who were otherwise ready to kill each other.
But not before David Bowie saves the world.

Of course I never knew Tyler Clementi, the young Rutgers student who took his own life last month in a tragedy so unfathomably horrific that it doesn't permit adequate attempts at description. The story that has emerged so far is that Tyler was enjoying a romantic moment with another guy, while his roommate secretly streamed the encounter live on the internet. Shortly after Tyler found out, he jumped off a bridge.
Of course I never knew him, but his story demands a deeper listening than has yet been promoted or presented by our culture's spokespeople. This is not just a story about one man and two acquaintances whose idiotic prank appears to have caused such fear of exposure that Tyler felt he had to kill himself. It's a story about all of us. And we all need to listen to it.

Two films released by the Criterion Collection this week focus on men at war. We'll discuss Terrence Malick's 'The Thin Red Line' on the next episode of The Film Talk, and below; later in the week I'll post a piece on 'Merry Christmas, Mr Lawrence'. These are two of the most compelling films released on DVD this year.
When I first saw Terrence Malick's 'The Thin Red Line', it was the turn of the century, Bill Clinton was still in office, the Twin Towers were intact, and the film seemed to be about the past. The distant past, to be sure: a film that begins with a reptile submerging and ends with a plant growing on a beach seems to exist a long time before we did. The nearer past, ostensibly: it takes place in 1942 during the early Guadalcanal Campaign (although you'll look in vain for the caption that appeared on the print I saw over a decade ago to indicate it; Malick, it seems, has had that removed from the new Criterion Collection Blu-ray and DVD release: he wants the movie to exist outside time). This is only appropriate, as it aims to be a poem about the primitive roots of violence, the lack of maturity among men who see the world only as a fight, the power of love to sustain even when it is broken, the tragedy of human beings caught in a web that they think dictates that only violence can be the path to power in this life.

►Japan is bracing for Typhoon Neoguri, one of the biggest storms to threaten the country in decades, and experts have raised concerns about the impact on the region's infrastructure. The typhoon is headed towards Okinawa, with a population of 1.2 million people and is predicted to make landfall Wednesday, but government officials have already advised 480,000 people to evacuate to local municipal buildings, according to The Diplomat. The Okinawa and Kyushu region is already saturated with rain from a record-breaking storm last week, which increases the risk of floods, landslides, and power outages. Japan's two main power companies are already struggling to meet peak summer usage and all of their nuclear reactors are offline. About 6,500 households have already been left without power, according to The Telegraph.
►Standards body IIEE has released two anti-malware initiatives to assist software vendors in spotting malware, according to The Register. The program, Anti-Malware Support Service (AMSS), works to find hackers who hijack software from legitimate vendors and write malware into it. One aspect of the program, a clean file metadata exchange (CMX), allows software engineers to publish the metadata of an application, making it easier to detect a modified version carrying malware. IIEE has invited large vendors to take part in CMX, and the metadata will be available to registered users. Another aspect of the program identifies the license keys used to create malware and marks those as suspicious.
►Chinese hackers are switching up their tactics by spying on national security think tanks, according to researchers at CrowdStrike. Several groups have been compromised in the defense, finance, legal, and government areas, and hackers are gathering information on Iraq and the Middle East. The cyberattack group, Deep Panda, has been able to infiltrate e-mail accounts, directories, and files from the think tank sites. "This is undoubtedly related to the recent Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIS) takeover of major parts of Iraq and the potential disruption for major Chinese oil interests in that country. In fact, Iraq happens to be the fifth-largest source of crude oil imports for China and the country is the largest foreign investor in Iraq's oil sector. Thus, it wouldn't be surprising if the Chinese government is highly interested in getting a better sense of the possibility of deeper U.S. military involvement that could help protect the Chinese oil infrastructure in Iraq," according to CrowdStrike.

The Met Office has extended its yellow alert for snow until 6am on Tuesday, with icy conditions also likely to affect many roads throughout the morning.
Heavy snow resulted in very difficult driving conditions on Monday evening, with delays of up to two hours reported, particularly in Co Down and Co Antrim.
The Roads Service said salting and ploughing operations were underway from early afternoon "on a continual basis in the affected areas".
"The operations were affected by the intensity of the snow, the volume of very slow moving traffic, and in places by a number of broken down or abandoned vehicles," a spokesman explained.
Areas particularly affected included Belfast, the Greater Lisburn area, the Templepatrick hills, Comber, Saintfield, Ballygowan, Hillsborough, Carryduff, the Castlereagh hills, Dundonald, Holywood, Moira, Ballynahinch, Dromore, Dromara, Banbridge, Rathfriland and Castlewellan.
The Church Road in Holywood and the B27 Moyad Road over Spelga remained closed on Monday night. The Shane's Hill Road between Larne and Ballymena was closed due to snow and stranded vehicles, police said.
Earlier two breakdowns on the M1 westbound at Stockmans Lane reduced the motorway to just two lanes.
Motorists leaving Belfast queued from Broadway, and the delays affected Stockmans Lane towards the M1 and Balmoral Avenue heading towards Stockmans Lane.
Later police closed the M1 westbound at Stockmans Lane and Blacks Road because of a stranded lorry. It has since reopened.
"Salting and ploughing operations will continue as necessary overnight with the aim of having the network clear for morning traffic," the Roads Service said.
"Motorists are advised to exercise caution when travelling overnight and in the morning, particularly when driving on untreated roads."
Belfast International Airport remained "open and operational" on Monday.
"However adverse weather across the UK could affect some flights", a spokesperson said.
A small number of flights were cancelled to and from Belfast City Airport on Monday morning. The airport also put any delays down to a knock-on effect from the disrupted schedule.
All passengers are advised to contact their individual airline for the latest flight information.
A number of schools were closed on Monday, particularly in the North Eastern Education and Library Board area.
McKinney Primary School in Dundrod, Co Antrim will be closed on Tuesday.

Posted Friday, December 27, 2013 --- 9:43 a.m.
APPLETON, Wis. (AP) -- Twenty-five years after the Wisconsin Lottery sold its first ticket, the game has generated $3.5 billion in property tax relief.
Lottery officials say they're pleased with that figure, but others say the lottery hasn't lived up to the lofty predictions that were tossed around when state residents first voted to authorize the game.
A Post-Crescent Media report says the average property tax credit was over $100 in the 1990s. For most of the 2000s it's been less than $100.
Republican state Sen. Robert Cowles says analysts were predicting the lottery would cut property tax bills in half. He says that was misguided.
And Todd Berry of the Wisconsin Taxpayers Alliance says the reduction is more in the 1 percent range now.
The game has generated more than $11 billion in sales since 1988.

Cancer doesn't care who it may kill
Young people's deaths attest to brutality
Cancer seems to be stalking me, lately, and I'm not just talking about my own.
This week, two mothers who have lost children to cancer reached out for help supporting their causes and telling their stories. Judging by the impressive website I checked, Tammy McBain's cause doesn't really need my help getting the word out on May 24's fifth annual Kendra's Walk, a fundraiser for young cancer patients her brave and beautiful teenage daughter, Kendra, started the year she died.
At least Tammy doesn't appear to need as much help as Ethel Ljubic, who needs more support than one newspaper column can offer.
Ethel's 37-year-old son, Jason Ljubic, died one year ago Friday of the No. 1 cancer killer of Canadian men and women, but the one most of us give little thought to, and even less money.
Jay, as his pals and family called him, had lung cancer, the disease the public seems to think smokers deserve. Even the ones who stopped decades earlier and still get it.
Except Jay never smoked or even went to bars much. What's more, Jay's diagnosis isn't that rare, because up to 15 per cent of Canadians diagnosed with lung cancer have never put match to cigarette.
It's how relatively young and how quickly he died from his aggressive type that separates him from even the non-smoking pack who, on their own, form the eighth-leading cause of cancer deaths in Canada.
That, and maybe how health-conscious Jay was. He spent some time as a pipefitter and worked in a motorcycle shop, but who knows if either had any bearing on what happened.
Ethel and Jay's younger brother, Donovan, -- in from Regina where he works as a paramedic -- sat across the kitchen table of the family's East Kildonan home Wednesday recalling how it seemed to start. Jay was having headaches late in December 2011. They were severe and concerning enough that he bypassed the lineup here and flew to Florida to pay $850 for an MRI on his head and neck. It revealed some lymph-node swelling, but apparently not enough to cause much concern among his health-care providers.
As it turned out, Jay was listening to his body, but no one was listening to him.
"Jay knew something was wrong, and no one believed him," Donovan said.
"Neither did we."
No one believed him in March, either, when he was felled by fatigue, his voice weakened, and he started coughing.
The initial diagnosis was bronchitis.
What else could it be?
But the symptoms persisted and on Thursday, April, 12, 2012, he went to the St. Boniface Hospital ER where they did an X-ray. The next day, a doctor called him back. Jay's left lung appeared cloudy.
They thought it might be pneumonia.
But, to check further, a CT scan was ordered for Monday. What it showed was in addition to the mass in his left lung, there were spots on the right one.
"I don't like what I see," Edith would recall the emergency doctor saying. "I'm not sure what it is."
The doctor called in a lung specialist, and another more invasive test followed. By Sunday, April 27, Jay was at Health Sciences Centre having a lung biopsy.
"And then," Ethel said, "on Tuesday, May 2 he was told he had stage 4 lung cancer."
"Withing 10 days it had taken over his whole left lung and half his right," Ethel said.
"What does this mean?" Ethel recalled Jay saying about the diagnosis.
Donovan is still haunted by the fear he saw when he told his brother what it meant, and by not being able to save him the way the young paramedic has saved so many others.
"I'm not ready to die," Jay said.
By that time, the tumour was pressing on his vocal chords, and his voice was but a whisper.
Two weeks later, on May 16, he was given chemotherapy, but he was too weak and it was too late.
"I'll be OK," he whispered to his family before he left them.
He promised to say hello to a friend's brother who had died 10 years earlier.
"And he fell asleep," Ethel said.
Jay's hand was being held when he slipped away early in the morning of May 17, 2012, as if he waited just long enough so he wouldn't die on his father Mirko's 65th birthday.
"If it happened to Jay," Ethel told me "it could happen to anyone."
That's why she wants people to support the June 14 Inspire for Life fundraising walk for lung cancer awareness and research in Manitoba. And, even if you don't walk, please set aside your judgment of lung cancer and the one in 12 Canadians who will be diagnosed with it during their lifetime.
