"Butter Better than Vegetable Oils"
Norway's biggest newspaper writes that the new Nordic Nutrition Recommendations (NNR) are incorrect about fats. A new review of all studies on the subject shows that butter is most likely better for the heart than the Omega-6-rich vegetable oils that are recommended:
VG: Danish researchers: – Butter is not more harmful than vegetable oils (Google translated from Norwegian)
The most interesting part of the article is the comment from the Head of the Division of Nutrition of the Danish National Food Institute, Gitte Gross, who's been involved in coming up with the fat-phobic Nordic nutritional recommendations: Continue Reading →
Insane Fat-Fighting Strategy in the UK
Apart from the thought-provoking quote in the picture, Einstein also famously said this:
Insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results.
Both quotes fit perfectly to the new UK strategy to reduce obesity: Cut down on saturated fat in sugar-stuffed candy and junk food.
SKYNEWS: Fat-Fighting Strategy To Slim Down Nation
The problem? This is exactly what people have been trying to do for 30 years, while obesity rates have skyrocketed! So why will the exact same strategy suddenly have the opposite effect?
Here's why the old fat-phobic advice is bad for your health:
- Saturated fat has little or nothing to do with heart health
- Reducing fat means you'll likely increase carbohydrates (or stay hungry). Junk carbs – like sugar – in processed foods is the most fattening thing you can eat. It makes you hungrier and makes you want to eat too much.
England is already the most obese nation in Europe. Expecting that this 80's style fat-phobic campaign will have a different result is simply insane.
The Real Cause of Heart Disease
What is the cause of heart disease? For the past decades the dogma has been that saturated fat and cholesterol are the culprits. But a growing number realize that this outdated idea has been a mistake.
Yesterday Australia's foremost science television show, Catalyst, broadcasted an episode on the subject (video clip above). There are many physicians and experts interviewed in the show, and the majority believes that the over-simplified cholesterol theory is simply wrong.
The real cause of heart disease? Inflammation in the artery walls. This may have many causes, but the amount of saturated fat you consume is not one of them. Here are some more probable contributing factors:
- stress on the artery wall due to high blood pressure
- high blood sugar levels that damage the cells inside the artery
- small, dense, oxidized LDL particles that may irritate the artery wall and/or get in between the cells in the wall
- smoking, which introduces substances to the blood that irritates the arteries
The three first factors are exacerbated by too much sugar and starch in the diet.
In addition to the above: stress. Stress exacerbates all the problems mentioned above – it raises blood pressure, increases blood sugar, worsens blood lipid profile and increases the tendency to adopt bad habits, such as smoking.
Not on the list: butter. Switching to polyunsaturated omega-6-fats won't be protective either – according to new findings this may even be harmful!
It's time for more brave experts to stand up and say "I was wrong, you were right".
So how do you really prevent heart disease? Here's my best advice: Continue Reading →
Heart Doctor: Time to Bust the Myth About Saturated Fat and Heart Disease
More and more people are questioning the silly old-fashioned fear of butter. A heart doctor writes in the latest issue of the respected British Medical Journal that it's time to bust the myth that saturated fat has anything to do with heart disease.
A number of papers report on this and the heart doctor was on British morning TV today (watch).
Could that Low-Fat Diet Make You Even Fatter?

Read the article for some references to recent Food Revolution events in Sweden, the grand experiment of Sam Feltham and some comments by an enlightened cardiologist and a less updated (sadly) dietitian.
Chief Physician: Forget About the MyPlate Guidelines
A growing number of health care professionals recognize that the old advice on a low-fat, high-carb diet has been an embarrassing mistake. Here's another one, chief physician Ulf Rosenqvist, Medical Specialist Clinic, Motala, Sweden. Here's a quote:
It's confusing when suddenly the truth no longer holds. It's been taken as dogmatic faith that one should eat according to the MyPlate Guidelines. All health care professionals have been indoctrinated in this…
Now it's time for forget the Swedish version of the MyPlate guidelines (very similar to the current US version) and aim for richer foods again, he says.
The Food Revolution is on a roll! Here's the full article translated into English:
Toxic Sugar: Fantastic Video on the Obesity Epidemic!
Is sugar toxic and the cause of the obesity epidemic? Here's a great new video called Toxic Sugar. It's a recent segment from the major Australian science program Catalyst, on ABC.
It's arguably the best 18-minute introduction ever made on the true causes of the obesity epidemic. The program features the #1 enemy of the sugar industry: professor Robert Lustig. Also appearing: science writer Gary Taubes and obesity expert professor Michael Crowley.
See it and then tell your friends. This needs to be seen by a lot of people.

Five Low-Carb Myths Debunked
Are you ready for the destruction of a few choice low-carb myths? A week ago I participated in a discussion, invited by a very popular Brazilian health site. Here's the video – the English part starts at 2:28, after an introduction in Portuguese.
Some of the myths we discuss are:
- Myth: Carbohydrates are an essential part of a healthy diet.
- Myth: Fats are fattening and cause heart problems.
- Myth: Cholesterol in food is bad for your heart.
- Myth: To lose weight you need to count calories.
- Myth: Exercise is effective for weight loss.
Did you ever believe in any of these myths? I did.
Another Dreadful Low-Fat Product
Now I'm back in Sweden again, with good access to the internet, after three weeks of travelling in America. Thus there'll be more regular updates again.
Here's a quick example of how bad low-fat products can be for your health. It's nothing new, but even worse than what I've seen back home.
Here's yogurt served at breakfast on the cruise last week. Notice that all of them except the plain one have the words "low fat" on the top. It sounds healthy – but it's not. Have a look:
The low-fat yogurt contains almost no fat. Instead it's filled with sugar and modified starch, rapidly absorbed bad carbs. And not a little: 22 grams per 113 gram serving.
About 70 percent of the energy in the yogurt is pure sugar. And it's very noticable: it tastes like eating candy for breakfast.
The reality is that the manufacturers have removed 2 grams of fat from the container of yogurt. Then they've added about 15 grams of sugar, seven times more, and they sell it implying that it's healthy for you.
Is anyone surprised that there are three times more obese Americans today, compared to when the fear of fat took hold back in the 1980's?
"I Was Wrong, You Were Right"
Not many things impress me more than a scientist who dares to change his opinion. An excellent example is the influential Danish scientist Arne Astrup.
After earlier believing that fat was bad and carbs (even high-GI carbs) were good Astrup has now changed his mind. One of the reasons is the large DIOGENES study that he published in The New England Journal of Medicine recently.
The study proved that a diet with more protein, less carbs and a lower GI is better for maintaining a weight loss. Advice similar to the official guidelines (with more carbs) made participants regain the most weight.
Carbs and obesity
Astrup used to be critical of Gary Taubes (who has long maintained that too much carbs is the villain behind the obesity epidemic). But now he did not mind admitting that he had changed his mind. I was there when they met at the ASBP obesity conference in San Diego yesterday. Astrup said "I was wrong, you were right" to Taubes, regarding carbs and obesity. He didn't mind me quoting him on that either.
To clarify, Astrup does not believe that a strict low-carb diet is a good idea for the entire population. A little less carbs with a lower GI, and a bit more protein would be sufficient he believes. But Astrup had nothing against stricter low-carb diets for treating obesity etc.
Saturated fat
I thought that Astrup would still be afraid of natural saturated fat, but he has updated his position here as well. After all the recent studies showing that refined carbs are worse for the heart than saturated fat, and now even that polyunsaturated omega-6 fat is worse, Astrup believes that focusing on saturated fat is wrong.
If there's any benefit in replacing saturated fat with monounsaturated or omega-3 fat it's hardly of any major importance. There are much more important things to focus on, such as eating less refined carbs (sugar and white flour), enough protein and avoiding trans fats. Natural saturated fat is nothing to be afraid of.
When people like Astrup manage to update their opinions there's plenty of hope for the future. Let's hope more and more experts will follow in his footsteps.

Darwin Barney gratified he's around to be one of Cubs' building blocks
BY GORDON WITTENMYER firstname.lastname@example.com March 28, 2012 7:40PM
Darwin Barney, 26, says he's "happy to still be here after the crazy offseason we had." | Mark Duncan~AP
Updated: April 30, 2012 8:32AM
MESA, Ariz. — Rick Sutcliffe, the former Cubs' Cy Young Award winner and current part-time spring coach, was talking about a pitcher in camp and intangibles, and out of nowhere started talking about a second-year infielder.
"I'll never forget Walter Alston years ago talking about a player, saying this is the kind of player I can win with,'' Sutcliffe said. "Darwin Barney is an example of that. Maybe he doesn't scout out like some of the other people, but when it's said and done, he's going to help you win more games than the guy with more ability.''
Not bad for a guy with one full year in the big leagues. A guy still out to show he can stay strong and durable to the end of a long season, a guy who says he's still trying to establish himself.
"Obviously, it's nice to hear that people think that about you,'' he said. "The only way people feel that way about you is you go about your business. … I've got to keep going.''
After a .276 season that opened with a Rookie of the Month award for April and a .306 first half, Barney hit .238 after the All-Star break — when his weight dipped to 10-15 pounds under his opening weight of 179.
Then he watched some of the trades after the new front office took over and couldn't help but wonder if he could be next.
"You never know,'' he said. "But I'm happy to be here, and I'm happy I wasn't traded.''
Instead, Barney, 26, continued an offseason program and worked out with strength and conditioning coordinator Tim Buss to decrease body fat (from 13 percent down to 8) while increasing weight (190 this spring).
He also got some encouraging words from the new regime before he came to camp.
"They've instilled confidence in me,'' he said. "They let me know that they believe that I can do what I believe I can do.''
At the very least, it's given Barney a much different outlook — even if he takes the same approach — than he had a year ago as a guy just trying to win a roster spot out of camp.
"The good thing that's different about this year is they are up front with you, and you know you're going to get honesty,'' he said, "and as a player that means a lot, whether you like what you're hearing or not. All I can really say is the communication's been there with everybody. It's been there from Day 1. And that's the most important thing.''
Barney emphasized that he takes nothing for granted, regardless of how encouraging the message or how highly he appears to be regarded by the staff.
"Those are just words. That's why you don't come in assuming anything,'' he said. "You've just got to keep working hard and keep earning your keep and keep your goals focused on the team.''
For what they're worth, here's a few more words on the matter: Barney's poised to be an important part of the homegrown core the new regime envisions building its "sustained success'' around, with guys such as Starlin Castro, Anthony Rizzo and Brett Jackson.
"I'd be lucky to be a Cub for the next three, four years is the way I look at it,'' Barney said. "Am I happy to still be here after the crazy offseason we had? Most definitely. And will I be happy to still be here every day of the year? Yes.
"The way I look at it is that you can't look at it as I'm part of the youth movement. I look at it as I'm fortunate to be here, and if I'm here in a couple years, that's even better.''

Revised--Supreme Court rules in favor of wine enthusiasts--well, sort of! (PB)
On May 16, the Supreme Court of the United States ruled that it is unconstitutional for a state to prohibit the shipment of wine out of state to consumers IF that particular state allows wineries in state to ship to consumers within that state.
Traveling to Napa a couple years ago I wanted to join a wine club at one of the wineries but was informed that it was illegal for them to ship wine to my house in the state of Maine. As Michigan and New York's laws were challenged and overturned at the federal level, I was optimistic that the Supreme Court would trash this law making it legal for any consumer to buy wine at an out of state winery having it shipped to their home or over the internet taking advantage of boutique wineries that do not distribute out of their state of production.
So my wife and I raised a glass to the U.S. Supreme Court but alas it was for naught!
So, it only means that if your state allows wineries in your state to ship to consumers in that state, it cannot prohibit the shipment of wine to your house from an out of state winery.
The state now has the obligation to change their state law so that it is consistent. In other words, they must change their current laws prohibiting shipment of wine from out of state OR they may prohibit all shipment of wine, both in-state and out of state, to consumers.
Back to the drawing board!

Badminton 'match-fixing' scandal rocks Olympics
Eight female badminton players were charged with 'throwing' matches.
Wed, Aug 01, 2012 at 04:54 AM
BADMINTON: The women were allegedly attempting to manipulate the final standings in the first-round group stage, with two pairs who had already qualified apparently wanting to lose to secure a favorable draw in the next round. (Photo: AFP)
The Olympic Games was rocked by scandal on Wednesday after eight women badminton players were charged with "throwing" matches.
Four pairs in the women's doubles competition — one from China, one from Indonesia and two from South Korea — could be disciplined after the Badminton World Federation took action.
There were also calls for the players to be disqualified and for opponents who finished in third place in the round-robin groups to be awarded quarter-final places instead.
The controversy overshadowed a day when 20 golds are to be decided and could even threaten the sport's future in the Games.
At present, all four pairs are included in the order of play with their quarter-finals scheduled for Wednesday evening, starting from 1600 GMT at the Wembley Arena.
Angry spectators jeered and booed the players after they appeared to deliberately serve into the net or hit the shuttlecock long or wide.
They were allegedly attempting to manipulate the final standings in the first-round group stage, with two pairs who had already qualified apparently wanting to lose to secure a favorable draw in the next round.
The Group A match between the powerful Chinese pairing of Yu Yang and Wang Xiaoli and unseeded South Korean pair Jung Kyung and Kim Ha Na came under scrutiny by the BWF after the Chinese lost heavily.
The longest rally in the match was just four shots.
Their defeat meant Yu and Wang avoided playing fellow Chinese pair Tian Qing and Zhao Yunlei, who had finished second in Group D.
Yu said after the match: "We've already qualified, so why would we waste energy? It's not necessary to go out hard again when the knockout rounds are tomorrow."
After the match, South Korean head coach Sung Han-Kook reportedly said: "It's not the Olympic spirit to play like this. How could the number one pair in the world play like this?"
Another South Korean coach, Kim Moon-Soo, told the Xinhua news agency: "I think the Chinese players violated the Olympic spirit when they deliberately missed their serves."
China's Olympic delegation has launched an investigation into the allegations, state media said.
"The Chinese Olympic Committee... opposes any kind of behaviour to violate the sporting spirit and morality," Xinhua news agency quoted a Chinese Olympic spokesman as saying.
A later Group C match played Tuesday in which South Korean third seeds Ha Jung-Eun and Kim Min-Jung beat Indonesian pair Meiliana Jauhari and Greysia Polii is also being investigated.
Tournament referee Torsten Berg came on to court during that match to warn the players about their conduct and was thought to have shown a black card — meaning a dismissal — but it was apparently rescinded.
Berg said afterwards: "We have looked seriously into the case and as referee I have taken a decision and made a report to the BWF which will be known in due course."
Elsewhere, 20 golds were due to be decided on the busiest day of action so far.
Tour de France winner Bradley Wiggins bids to become Britain's most successful Olympian when he goes in the time trial race, while Australia's James Magnussen looks for a first swimming gold.
Wiggins starts as favourite for the 44km time trial around London's Hampton Court Palace after winning both long time trials on the Tour.
The first Briton ever to win cycling's most prestigious race said he was determined to win Olympic gold after the host nation finished outside the medals in the road race on Saturday.
"Confidence is sky-high that we're going to be in the ballpark," said the 32-year-old Londoner.
A medal of any colour would see Wiggins become the most decorated British Olympian in history as a seventh medal would put him one clear of rower Steve Redgrave, who has six.
Magnussen came to London with a growing reputation but admitted he got the reality check he needed after Australia's humiliating flop in the 4x100m freestyle relay, and said he was back on track for Wednesday's 100m freestyle.
The 21-year-old world champion nicknamed "The Missile" admitted he was on a steep learning curve at his first Games.
"Everyone says it and I hear it so often, that the Olympics is a different pressure and I used to think 'yeah'... but it's true," he admitted.

Hatty is a word that popped up in the East Melbourne ghetto in Victoria, Australia. It is short for 'Hat-Full-Of-Arseholes' which is a way of telling someone they are more than one arsehole (NOTE: If you don't live in Australia, London or any other place that uses the word arse, it is just our way of saying ass).

The Story of Kalliope, Phoenix's Extraordinary Party Car

How a Single Tweet Launched A Cloud for Climbing
By Troy Farah
By New Times
By the fall of 1959, Marty Robbins had amassed a recorded catalogue of five albums and 32 singles. Embedded in this waxwork were songs with whistling, songs with yodeling, songs with rockabilly guitar licks and songs with Little Richard-type squeals. One song even had sped-up chipmunk vocals. There was a whole album of Hawaiian songs, at least half a dozen single sides devoted to the Lord and nearly twice that amount dedicated to a high school dance heartache. Some songs were unmistakably country, even though Robbins sang with a smooth pop voice instead of a nasal twang. All of it was superbly delivered in that heartfelt tenor of his. But none of it sounded like the desert. And Marty Robbins loved the desert.
Born and raised near Glendale, Martin David Robinson (later shortened to Robbins) lived the cowboy lifestyle most country singers only gleaned from watching Roy Rogers movies. For two years, he tried maintaining his permanent residence in Arizona while tending to a burgeoning music career in Nashville. When relocation seemed inevitable, it was with more than a heavy heart that he and his wife, Marizona, and their 4-year-old son, Ronald Carson, drove past the sign that read, "Leaving Phoenix, population 250,000." That was in 1953. Each time they returned, it seemed like another 100,000 had enlisted in their absence.
Ronny Robbins has now spent 47 of his 51 years in Music City. These days only funerals seem to bring him back to Phoenix. "I'd love to move back to Phoenix if I can find a place just like it used to be. That's probably Tucson," he says with a laugh.
For Ronny, Phoenix "like it used to be" entails 112 to 115-degree temperatures with 6 percent humidity and driving around Cave Creek when there weren't any paved roads. Sometimes Marty would let his preteen son take the wheel while he'd go shooting rabbits. The Robbins family continued to make treks from Nashville to the Valley every summer and Christmas. It was during one Christmas road trip that Ronny recalls hearing "El Paso" for the first time -- and not on the car radio, either.
"We had a turquoise Cadillac, and that's what I remember we were in when he wrote it," he says. "My mother was driving, I was in the front seat and Daddy was in the back seat with his little guitar and a yellow legal pad just writing down words as fast and furiously as he could. And I'm thinking, "Man, that song is like a movie. A real neat story.' I'm thinking he wrote it over two consecutive Christmases. Never finished it and picked it back up that second year. It wasn't anything I thought was going to be of interest to anyone else but him and me. There were six or seven minutes of verses at one time that he cut down."
Even with that pruning job, "El Paso" became the song that would break the two-and-a-half-minute time barrier in pop music, as well as become the first No. 1 pop record of the '60s and the first recipient of a "Country" Grammy. And Gunfighter Ballads and Trail Songs, the album "El Paso" rode in on, became the biggest seller of Marty Robbins' career.
Now those records sound like the desert. Even without the regional lyrics, songs like "They're Hanging Me Tonight," "Running Gun," "The Master's Call" and "Big Iron" would've screamed desert landscapes to a cabby stuck in New York City rush-hour traffic, if only for the sparse production or the desolation in Robbins' plaintive cry.
You can't rerelease the desert, but you can digitally remaster its songs, and maybe that's as close to a piece of old Arizona as we're ever going to get. While the Gunfighter album has never slipped out of print, its recent rerelease as part of Sony Legacy's "American Milestone" series marks the first time this legendary album has been given the extensive liner notes, original packaging and bonus cut treatment. Quite a far cry from the label's initial lukewarm reaction to an album of songs about determined lawmen and bad-tempered cowboys.
Ronny recalls: "CBS didn't want to do it, couldn't have cared less about western music at the time. It wasn't their idea of what commercial material was. But Daddy said, "I'm going to cut it anyway.' They did the whole Gunfighter album in four and a half hours. It wasn't something they spent a lot of time with. One, because he didn't feel like CBS was going to put it out. Or if they did, they wouldn't get behind it. But it took off like gangbusters.
"This album is still their best seller. It may have gone platinum [it has]. CBS doesn't tell me a lot anymore. They have control of the audio material, and they can market it a lot better than I can."
In the '70s, Ronny had his own musical career. Before that he performed with his dad as "Marty Robbins Jr." Columbia Records not only released the lone "Jr." album in 1969, but affixed a "Proudly Presents" to its title as well. When Ronny is told the album is available on eBay, he chuckles and warns, "Don't pay too much for it."

These pens draw wonderfully,...
These pens draw wonderfully, the price is great, and they are a lot of fun to work with. However, when I was going back through a sketchbook recently, I found that the lines I had drawn with the LePens had started discoloring the back sides of pages, and fading on the fronts. It is a fairly standard sketchbook, in which I have used any number of other pens and markers with good results, and the drawings in question were less than three months old. They claim the ink is acid free, but it was most certainly having some sort of a reaction with this paper. Perhaps these would be good for quick, just for fun drawings, but I am now hesitant to use it on anything I mean to archive or sell.

I love this pen. Super minimal design lays down a nice black line , and the tip is very durable. The ink lasts a long time. That being said the ink fades badly over time, turns from black to a dark brown. I enjoy sketching with this pen, but if I do not use it for important work because it fades. This pen is in my pocket more of the time than any other.

This is my favorite pen...
This is my favorite pen in my pencil box. The body of the pen is so lightweight, and combined with the cap is still small enough to fit in my pocket. I love how thin the whole body is, and yet it fits so much ink. I have written with it every day for months and it still has not run out of ink. The tip is so precise, and the fine tip writes smoothly. And the black ink is bold. My only complaint is that the ink does take a while to dry, so when you write you have to be careful not to cover your writing with your hand; This will cause the ink to smudge. Overall this is such a great pen, I think that everybody should have one of these in their pencil box.

I love my LePen!
I have been using this to line my drawings and it has put the similar Stablio Point 88 Fineliner in black to shame.
This has a wonderful, deep black color to it and the tip has withstood my rather vigorous drawing. I have been using it in a Rhodia notebook and a Moleskin Cahier and I am pleased with the performance of this pen in both instances.
I will definitely buy more when I need them and I will definitely look at some additional colors when I do so!
The price is excellent for what you are getting.

Jun 30, 2012I love the cinema of Wes Anderson, as I feel that he expresses much of the things I hold dearest, and I consider his movies so close to me that it feels as if I'm looking at a mirror that reminds me of my best feelings ever.Up to now, my favorite ones used to be Rushmore, Battle rocket and, perhaps, The life aquatic. But Moonrise kingdom is the new candidate for my almost favorite one. I would like to live in the world of this film;not because of what's happening(there 's a certain sadness in the relations of almost everyone to everyone in the film); but because Anderson manages to take me to a place where I feel things I was longing for and I was tending to forget. A unique film, which I instantly adored!… Expand
Jun 30, 2012Moonrise Kingdom is a Wes Anderson film, and so it is not for everyone, but for fans of Wes Anderson, this movie exceeds any expectations you could have coming in. It is shot beautifully, the acting is excellent, it is perfectly cast, and the plot moves with perfect suspense and pace. Anderson attempts to capture the essence of the island, the essence of love, and the essence of childhood enthusiasm, and succeeds in doing so, the result being a beautiful, entertaining, and emotional film that moviegoers will remember as Wes Anderson's best effort. While it retains all the Wes Anderson charm that his fans admire, Moonrise Kingdom does not spend time documenting the lives of nihilistic middle aged men, nor does it waste a frame of its length. It is edited perfectly. At one hour and thirty four minutes, Moonrise Kingdom is a film that anyone can enjoy, Wes Anderson lovers and haters alike, and is perhaps Anderson's best film to date.… Expand
Oct 27, 2012Directed by: Wes Anderson Written by: Wes Anderson and Roman Coppola Running Time: 94 min Rated: PG-13 Starring: Bill Murray as Walt Bishop Frances McDormand as Laura Bishop Bruce Willis as Captain Sharp Edward Norton as Scout Master Randy Ward Tilda Swinton as Social Services Jared Gilman as Sam Shakusky Kara Hayward as Suzy Bishop Jason Schwartzman as Cousin Ben In 1965, two 12 year olds decide to leave their lives behind and run away to a hidden inlet on the island of Penzance. Or so goes the plot for Wes Anderson's latest film, Moonrise Kingdom. The two kids, Sam and Suzy, meet when Sam sneaks backstage at a play and finds Suzy dressed as a raven. When she tells him that she cut her hand on a mirror when she lost her temper, you can see in Sam's eyes that he is smitten. The two are pen pals for a year and hatch a plan to run away together.
Sam is an orphan and is a member of the Khaki Scouts, a very serious group of campers that appear to be modeled on the military and, of course, the Boy Scouts of America. He and his troop are camping at Camp Ivanhoe when his scout master, Randy Ward, notices that Sam has "flown the coop". An APB is put out on Sam, and the troop, along with the local police captain, begin a thorough search of the island.
Meanwhile, Suzy has also fled from her home, carrying with her the necessities: a kitten, kitten food, a record player and her favorite record, a suitcase full of stolen library books, her lefty scissors, and her binoculars. She meets Sam in a meadow and follows him to an inlet where they set up camp. Both on the line between childhood and puberty, the two settle into life together. Sam impresses Suzy with his camping ability, and Suzy is compassionate when Sam reveals he sometimes wets the bed. After discovering Suzy's stash of letters from Sam, the search party steps up their efforts to find the two lovebirds.
I have always been a fan of Wes Anderson's films for their unique style. Each time I see one, I spend days afterward contemplating his approach. The camera pans from one room to the other in the houses as if you are looking into a dollhouse. The nature of living right next to other people and yet separate at the same time is clearly demonstrated with this technique. The settings looks like old fashioned paintings that have come to life with the characters. The colors are antiqued, almost sepia toned. The actors have their usual expressionless faces we have come to expect from Anderson's films, and yet so much emotion is being conveyed.
Once again, he has assembled a first class cast. Bill Murray and Frances McDormand played two attorneys who are married but just going through the motions. Bruce Willis is the local unmarried police captain having an affair with Frances McDormand's character. Edward Norton is sincere as the serious scout master. But the breakout performances of the film come from the actors playing Sam and Suzy, the star crossed lovers. I was mesmerized as I watched them fall in love for the first time in their young lives, as they carefully navigated the delicate balance between childhood and adulthood.
Another area in which I feel that Wes Anderson's excels is in his choice of music. After watching this film 4 times in a row (yes, I love it that much!), I downloaded the soundtrack. I'm not sure it holds up as a whole, but the parts are excellent. First there is the song that Sam and Suzy dance to on the beach, Francoise Hardy's Le Temp de L'Amour. I know it sounds silly but I love to put it on and act like I know what I'm saying when I try to sing along. Then there is the Young Person's Guide to the Orchestra. I put this on for my 6 year old and he loved it. It reminds me of how much I used to love listening to Peter and The Wolf when I was a kid. I love watching him as he discovers the nuances of each instrument and how they come together to make magic.
I highly recommend both the movie and the soundtrack. This is one movie I'm going to purchase to watch again and again. It's like a good book. In fact, I'm going to purchase all of Wes Anderson's movies and revisit them. Let me know what you think of the movie after you watch it.… Expand
Jul 9, 2012This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Moonrise Kingdom tells a mythological tale of social chaos (symbolized by the storm and Noah's Ark play) that gets resolved in a peaceful way rather than through a violent expulsion or sacrifice (except for the poor dog). Those methods are the kneejerk solutions to social confusion we expect in most communities/myths/movies. The movie begins with the chaos of adults acting like children while training the children to be adults prematurely. The orphan boy and Susie personally experience this lack of order and are trying to find peace and be prematurely adult because the island's adults are failing to provide proper care. The two teenagers accept their difference and try to leave the disorder around them for the best kind of natural and normal life and relationship they're capable of. This makes them outsiders who are blamed for the chaos that the adults have created for themselves and their children. The scouts who attack the young couple, the social service system lady, and Susie's parents use the usual blame, expulsion, and injuring/killing of these odd ones so society can return to its "normal" disorder that the adults take for order. But the Ed Norton scout leader and Bruce Willis police chief undergo personal change to take responsibility to help the children. These adults in official roles of order choose to resolve the conflict peacefully by recognizing the young couples' desparate, forced attempt to find their own sense of good order for themselves by just withdrawing from the community's disorder. And by choosing not to go through with their suicide the couple eschew the role of victims. They take the chance to live peacefully in a truly more healthy order where responsible adults care effectively for growing children. The new, true order is symbolized in the childrens' changed name of the inlet to Moonrise Kingdom following the island's great storm/chaos that's untypically been resolved peacefully. This is a simple innocent movie myth indeed that gifts us with an alternative to more common violent myths. These myths presume the necessity for a violence that gains a mere temporary peace, just the reconstituting of a still fundamentally chaotic "order." It will require repeated violence to keep chaos at bay, but never resolved. If my interpretation is sound then Wes Anderson may, like me, have been reading the cultural theorist Rene Girard. Girard has accomplished a startling unmasking of the myths, prohibitions and sacrifices that go along with the violent expulsion at the foundation of all societies. From whatever source, Wes Anderson has created a counter myth that presents a community's alternative choice to re-form/re-found itself through personal and social changes that lead to a peaceful social reconciliation. Moonrise Kingdom portrays adults learning wisdom from the mouth of babes.… Expand
Jul 9, 2012One of the greatest, most unique directors of our time, Wes Anderson, is back with his seventh film and it doesn
Jul 10, 2012Wes Anderson at his best! Moonrise Kingdom will go down as one of his greatest. From the corky scripting, to the incredible cinematography, this film is hard not to enjoy.
Jul 11, 2012After a meandering start, it takes flight and is magical. True to form, Wes Anderson. Tender at the core and odd on the outside. Sweet perfection, lovely.
Jul 15, 2012I went in jaded and was ready to hate the preciousness of it all, but this gem won me over. A summer treat from a man with a vision. You pretty much know what you're going to get with Wes Anderson, but here it comes together with style and grace.
May 30, 2014Wes Anderson is one of the best directors working today and this is yet another example of his greatness. Beautifully filmed throughout as usual, Anderson creates the perfect set for this film and really utilizes every tool at his disposal in terms of the location of this one. Every shot is truly more beautiful than the last. "Moonrise Kingdom" is a cute, quirky look at adolescent love. It gets a tad...awkward at times to watch, but throughout, you cannot help but smile and laugh as these two kids embark on this adventure with one another. In many films that focus on young people, the child actors are sometimes spotty with their acting, but here, both Jared Gilman and Kara Hayward, though both just 12 at the time of filming, were remarkable. Their innocence shines through throughout. In addition to them, Bruce Willis and Edward Norton were fantastic, as were Bill Murray, Frances McDormand, and Jason Schwartzman, in what is a really star-studded and talented cast. Like many Anderson films, it is not riotously funny, but it certainly has its moments of pure comedy. A touching romantic fantasy adventure comedy, "Moonrise Kingdom" is yet another win for Anderson.… Expand
Nov 3, 2012All well(direction,actors and screenplay).The boy made mistakes but he solved it too fast;it's a great character.It's better than Skyfall and one of the best romance movies I ever seen.
Aug 8, 2012Move over Bruce Willis! Bruce Willis is in town! Wait what? I don't know, but Bruce Willis was great in this and he didn't even punch/shoot/kick anyone or spout any cool catch phrases. Like Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring and LA Story before it, Moonrise Kingdom is a movie. Whether or not you like movies may have a lot to do with how much you enjoy Moonrise Kingdom. Ask yourself: Have I ever seen a movie before? If the answer is no, then it is weird that you are reading this. Go see a movie. Should this be the first movie you ever see? Probably not. Go see Nell. It is about you. Then you can see this and Terminator 3: Rise of the Machinerators and Forrest Gump. But why stop there? There are literally thousands of movies you can go see now that are not being like Nell. Also, Bill Murray is in this. If you have seen a movie before, you might know that Bill Murray is pretty funny sometimes. If you are ok with that, and secure in your own level of humor, you might like to see this movie and even laugh sometimes at Bill Murray or even some of the other actors. Oh yes! There are other actors! One of them was in Fargo, and one of them made his mother cry (but I won't say which one!). Movies: the more you know.… Expand
Apr 16, 2014A rather odd movie, good one to watch, but a bit cheesy. The story is good, it has some depth, the actors are nice, the direction is decent. Overall, an okay movie if not that cheesiness.
Oct 3, 2012Excellent film. Fantastic performances all round and wonderfully original. I honestly do not understand the extremely negative reviews here. This probably isn't a 10/10 film but at least an 8.
Nov 4, 2012A film filled with simple pleasures. Wes Anderson films are an acquired taste. Like all acquired tastes, you can understand why other people don't enjoy them, but you pity them for it.
Nov 1, 2012This movie is great, I went in not knowing anything about it, and was very glad I saw it. Its certainly different and very interesting. Recommend to anyone
Nov 3, 2012Moonrise Kingdom is probably Wes Anderson's most accomplished movie... Everything is beautiful : the colors are dreamlike, the music is exuding the 60 's and the scenario joyfully childish. Did I forget to mention how good every actor ?
If I had one movie to take on a desert island, it would definitely be this one !
Nov 5, 2012The film is set and edited with a master's perfection and each scene is cut so precisely, that within the first five minutes you're enchanted by Anderson's world. But, I believe it is this same style that prevents the film from being great, as the cookie cutter feel of it all eventually becomes tiresome.
Nov 10, 2012The Royal Tenenbaums is one of my all time favorite films. I love Rushmore as well. Those films are both 10's in my book. Moonrise Kingdom is not a 10. It does not live up to Rushmore or Tenenbaums, but it certainly comes close. The beginning of the film was my problem. I wasn't bored, but I was starting to get to that point. The middle of the movie then came and from that point on it was flawless. I enjoyed it very much. The performances from the cast were hilarious. Especially by Bruce Willis, Bill Murray, and Edward Norton. They are the funniest and saddest characters of this story. This is a story about young love and family and it is definitely one of Anderson's best. This is one of my favorite films of the year, and I encourage any one to go and see it. One of the most interesting movie going experiences of the year.… Expand
Nov 14, 2012Even though this is my first Wes Anderon film, I enjoyed every moment of Moonrise Kingdom, savoring the originality of the characters and the atmosphere. There is something so unique and refreshing about the film... it is a breath of fresh air. Like any good drama, the movie is sincere and heartfelt, a fantasy filled with hints of nostalgia. Like any good comedy, the movie is very funny and very entertaining, with Bill Murray stealing the show at times. Part of the humor comes from the fact that the characters take themselves more seriously than we think they should. Yet the characters are sympathetic and feel realistic. The story can certainly pride itself in being unpredictable. The cinematography is simple yet elegant. Definitely see Moonrise Kingdom.… Collapse
Nov 3, 2013I found this a rather odd movie, but a good one nonetheless. The characters and the plot are unique and memorable. Superb acting in my honest opinion from both the known actors and the younger ones. Well-paced and a fitting environment with nice scenery add to the mix. Won't say it's a must watch, but definitely something that people should look into if they like intelligent and quirky movies.
Dec 15, 2012The story itself is already fascinating, but it doesn't hurt at all that its misfit characters' journey is beautifully told by the quintessential filmmaker of the misfits. Moonrise Kingdom is one of those few cases in which bold formalism doesn't lead to a cold time at the movies. Actually, it's all the opposite.
Dec 19, 2012some plot revealed in this preview.
This film is brilliant! It is a simple story on the cover: Orphan boy doesn't really fit anywhere, finds another person in life who doesn't really fit in as well. Together they find love and peace in each other, as well as acceptance and understanding. On the back of the story, we have the adults. The adults in this film show what is wrong with the world and society and its impact on our youth. The influences the Adults in the movie have directly affect the children, not so much psychologically but socially and emotionally. Its a pretty heart warming story giving you some great insight into a world of reality where children really understand more than adults realize. The movie has many layers of which to unfold. life in general; In the end, all people want is to find a balance and a happiness. this movie does an excellent job of showing the process, among many other lessons to be learned! I recommend this film for everyone! Anyone who has had some form of struggle with life should be able to relate to this movie and story.… Expand
Jan 6, 2013This is just Wes Anderson at his best. A funny and cute screenplay that shows what it is like to be a kid and the theatricality of young love. If you like quirky movies that aren't the usual Kathrine Hiegel wreck then watch this. It will entertain you and give you a soft warm glow inside you.
Feb 9, 2013Great movie. Period. Enjoyed every second of it. Solid soundtrack, great script, great acting, one of Wes Anderson's best films yet. Cannot wait for his next flick.
Feb 8, 2013Película correcta, que mantiene las obsesiones de Anderson: colores, diálogos, actores. Lo nuevo son las actuaciones de la pareja de niños y los roles que cumplen, estos son personajes llenos de deseos que los adultos no entienden (a lo Simona Vinci) y se espantan. Temáticamente una loa al amor, mas uno que incluye las roturas de la mirada insolente de la niñez
Oct 15, 2014Simply left me speechless. One of the best films I've seen. Odd, sweet, funny, and finally we see Bruce Willis acting well. The characters are caricatures and don't even realise it. The typically Andersonian style of cinematography is unbelievably colourful. It doesn't have a specific point and isn't trying to have one.
The score by Desplat is marvellous. Better than the Tenenbaums.
Mar 23, 2013Loved this movie. If you can have the patience to sit through it all its a truley wonderful film. everything from the scenery, costumes, script all amazing. I truley love this director.
Apr 18, 2013A wonderfully darkened piece from Anderson's bag. According to me, it's the best Anderson movie so far. You can sue me for saying this, but it's also probably the best of 2012. Loved the craftsmanship. Loved the acting. Loved the quirky camera movements. Loved the story. Oh hell! What am I talking about! Loved the whole thing!!!!
Jun 7, 2013It seems to me that the performance of Bob Balaban was the most hilarious one His acting is so intentionally awkward that he looks like a six year-old performing in a school play. As far as I am concerned the role of Bruce Willis could have been given to anyone else since it was too simple and did not show his true talent, but i didn't hate it. Who are we to judge him? On the other hand, Edward Norton was more in his element in this film, where he plays a soft, clumsy person, than he was in other movies he did such as The Incredible Hulk and Fight Club. Additionally everything in this film seems to have been made dead and cold which is a good thing as it achieved to appear surreal. The music was mostly classical but together with the whimsical sets and costumes a very dreamy and poignant version of the 60's is formed. The lack of expression of really strong feelings even though some might say it's not usual for a film therefore risky and unlikely to be well-received, I believe is a futuristic art form, way ahead of our time. Moonrise Kingdom is about to become a prototype for many other films to come.… Expand
Jun 26, 2013This film is a marvelous gorgeous tale. The direction of that film is so extraordinary with such colors that can travel your mind to 1965 as the movie takes place. The two young actors were great too. It had a sense of humor and it is more like a black comedy with romantic stuff on it. I found it interesting and probably one of the best movies of that kind that I have ever seen. I recommend it to everyone though I think that some people may not like this film. It depends on what some people like. However, I loved that movie and I would like to watch it again if I have the chance. A must-watch film that should have more nominations to the Oscar awards. Thumbs up!!… Expand
Sep 24, 2013A visually stunning work of art and perhaps Wes Anderson's best film yet. Every shot in this movie is breathtaking, every performance is starling, every piece of dialogue is wittym and every character is likble. It's the perfect balance of style and substance. The cinematography just compliments the the film in every way possible. It's not your average Oscar contender film, it's more unique, more relatable, less boring. However, the only thing I can say that will take away from the film is that some people who do not like ofver the top artsy films, you may want to skip this one.… Expand
Sep 18, 2013Moonrise Kingdom is one of those movies that sticks with you or a long time, if not forever. The performances and sweet, quirky themes just leave you feline hint melancholy and a hint of happiness. And it's also fun to watch a critically-acclaimed movie where the lead actor lives behind one of your best friends!
Nov 29, 2013This movie was funny all the way throughout. It did center everything with corny acting from the kids, but so what? Much better than some other ones, I'll give you that. It's a love story, so some may find it unentertaining.
Nov 2, 2013Being young is not the complicated phase in the film but following your heart in every decision. This film gives a lot of colors that enable everyone to come in to and feel the chills and thrills.
Dec 18, 2013This is my favourite movie of all time. It's beautifully shot, impeccably scripted, and perfectly acted. I've easily seen this 7 times and can't wait until the next viewing.
Dec 22, 2013Sometimes solid direction, an ensemble cast and an interesting premise just isn't enough.. I found out the hard way. I wouldn't say I'm a huge fan of Anderson's but I did in fact love the royal tannenbaums. For all of the promise that this movie had I thought It was a disappointment. One dimensional characters, Woden acting from the child actors and an overall boring story had me wondering when this movie would end.… Expand
Dec 26, 2013As one should expect from a Wes Anderson movie, it has quirky characters, a classic yet unique plot, that certain style of editing that no one else does (if you have watched a Wes Anderson movie, in particular Fantastic Mr. Fox, you know what I am talking about), and Bill Murray (seriously, he is in almost every movie Wes Anderson has done). However, past the deadpan lines, deliberately outrageous action, and surreal visuals is a story that actually proves to be quite touching, and universally appealing. Therefore, the movie left me in tears by the conclusion, and I could not tell if it was the comedy or the heartfelt story that was the cause.… Expand
Feb 6, 2014Wes Anderson admires young love in a way that most do not, or I suppose I should say that he admires youth and the youthful view as all his films have that adolescent glow about them as if he is forever locked in a state of arrested development. I for one am particularly swayed by his films and their upbeat take on a nihilistic world. Moonrise Kingdom follows the Anderson pantheon like every other member of his rag tag cult and even though you know everything that is going to take place you still in enjoy the ride.
I would give this film an 8.5 as a fan of the man's work, however the Poe scale suggest a 7.5 at best.

Apr 3, 2014The Royal Tenenbaums was the first Wes Anderson film I watched. I liked it (I was 12 when I saw it.) Recently I watched The Grand Budapest Hotel, which I had mixed feelings about. More recently I watched Moonrise Kingdom, which gave rise the the thought: wow, why is this guy so acclaimed? As far as I'm concerned, this movie is just fool's gold. So, the diagnosis. I read up on film theory a lot as it is something I am strongly interested in, and there is a general consensus that you must play by the rules to begin with, but once you become a true auteur and expert in your field, you can basically do what you want. Wes Anderson thinks he has reached that stage, but he really hasn't. Do you know anyone who is a bit alternative, a bit artsy, supposedly 'generous', 'sweet', 'charming' and 'funny'; loved by everyone but you? For me, Wes Anderson is that guy. His characters are basically all the same: mini projections of his own quirky, oddball idiosyncrasies that not only his pseudo intellectual hipster cult love, but his staunch aficionados who also happen to be critics. I really don't see it. He directs the film the same way a 12 year old girl plays with her dollhouse, the characters are shallow and daft. I really couldn't bring myself to care about them. The only scene which moved me was the kissing scene on the beach (I moved my hands over my eyes.) The storyline is slightly risqué, and it doesn't help that the two main characters are precocious brats. I found it shocking that the romanticisation of mental illnesses (something greatly criticised these days) was completely overlooked. Mental instabilities are SERIOUS. They do not make you quirky or cool! The movie felt like taking a cold shower with a toothache. However I suppose a lot of the things I criticised about him are typical of many other directors, even directors I love, for example Fellini always had absurd characters, but I loved them. I suppose what I'm trying to say is that he has a very particular style, you can try and pick his films apart but you'd be splitting hairs: you either love them or hate them.… Expand
Nov 5, 2014All i could say after seeing this movie was, "What did I just sit through?" Hard to follow story, confusing logic by all characters, and all together too complicated for an average movie goer. if you want to explain what happened to me, go see it, but if not, STEER CLEAR!
These characters don't realize they're funny, and the actors are determined not to push it. Willis fares best, playing against in-control type; Murray fans expecting a comedy explosion won't find it here.
A thoroughly endearing journey, and one of the most enjoyable and touching movies to land in theaters so far this year.
The film is precious and adorable, but it isn't naïve, and the movie breathes so deep that Anderson even gets a real performance out of Willis (this is his best work in years).

Egyptian could spend 5 years in prison for his atheistic views + Petition
Abdel Aziz Mohamed Albaz was arrested recently in Kuwait on charges of blasphemy.
Whether you are an Atheist or a Muslim or a Christian, nobody deserves to be jailed or punished for having atheistic views. He did not hurt anybody. He did not steal, he did not assault anyone, he did not vandalize someone's property. He is simply a well articulated Egyptian Atheist who speaks his mind. He expressed himself in writing peacefuly a rather gentle articles. We need your help to pressure the Kuwaiti government to release him from this unjust imprisonment.
Please join us in DEFENSE of free speech and freedom of thought.
Thank you!

They still didn't get me though so thats always a plus,Yes I can be sent to jail for simply being an atheist who speaks against islam or christianity thats how fucked up the middle east is.
This isn't a thread for religious talk,I just made this thread so people can sign this petition because there's still hope for people like me in Kuwait,If the Kuwaiti government were to send all atheist Arabs who talk against religion in prison trust me they'd be sending ALLOT of Arabs in prison.
Also no this isn't the first time something like this happend,Alber Saber "google him" an Egyptian atheist was arrested too for the same reason just a few months ago only he was in Egypt which is even more fucked up considering the Egyptian president is a member of the muslim brotherhood.

The thirst for additional wealth among the NFL owners simply cannot be slaked, and therefore those in charge of such decisions will likely push hard to move a team there if it results in even $1 more net per year. The question is, should an NFL team move to London?

First up is Ari at Max California, one of the coolest sewing blogs out there! Ari has sewn up Figgy's Seraphic Pants for her son. This is such a cool unisex pattern, totally on trend right now.

Maggie at Smashed Peas and Carrots is an in-the-flesh blogging friend of mine, which is so much fun! I love this lady, I really do. When we got together outside of Chicago last year (I was home visiting my dad), we totally hit it off, and I was wishing that we had a whole lot more time to hang out! She has a great blog (much cooler than mine), and today she's sharing her version of Heidi & Finn's Tennis Skort. It's adorable. I love this pattern! I made it for Abby and shared it here.
You really cannot go wrong with the Sew Fab Pattern Bundle! At $1.50 per pattern you are getting the best deal around. Check out all of the patterns below and click on the logo to purchase the bundle.

How to Talk to Your Child About Being Distracted and Unfocused
My son John, now age 23, has struggled with ADHD and Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) since he was in preschool. A bright, sensitive and outgoing child, he's always wanted to succeed in school and fit in socially. His ADHD and OCD, of course, didn't always make it easy for him. I first learned about executive function when John was in middle school; it was a memorable "aha" moment for me. Suddenly, his learning and behavior challenges made more sense—as did the success (or failure) of the tactics I'd been using to help steer him in the right direction.
Before each new school year, I tried to prepare John by reviewing what he and we knew about his strengths and challenges, what lessons and coping techniques he'd learned the previous school year and what situations to anticipate in the year ahead. We did this over the course of several conversations, and executive function turned out to be a helpful framework for me to keep in mind. I'd like to share some of the conversation starters I've used with John and hope this approach (when tailored to your child's particular executive function profile) will serve as a springboard for some productive discussions in your household.
Executive Function–Related ADHD Challenges and Conversation Starters
Easily DistractedI know you try hard to pay attention in class but you get distracted. What helps you stay focused?
When John was young, sitting in front of the class and away from fidgety, chatty kids helped. When I talked with his first grade teacher about this, she agreed and had already made the same observation. She even went a step further by making a point to walk over and stand near him, touching his shoulder when she addressed the class. It worked like a charm!
How about when you're doing homework?
What worked best for him was to do homework at a tidy (not cluttered) kitchen table, with me nearby—not hovering, but making myself available when he needed help or guidance. When he got older, listening to music helped him tune in.
What things (noises, people) distract you the most?
Other boys with ADHD were like magnets to him. He was drawn to them, often amused by them, but he knew this kept him from focusing. He agreed that we'd ask his teacher to move him to a different place in the classroom and definitely not have the "funny, loud kid" be his class partner. A more complicated variation here was that he was sometimes distracted by his anxieties and obsessive thoughts. With time, maturity and therapy, he was better able to recognize and express his emotional distractions in an appropriate time/place so he could focus to school when he needed to.
Trouble Starting Projects and Shifting Between ActivitiesRemember that big science project you did last year? You started late and had to give up some fun activities so you could finish it. What do you think would help you start projects sooner?
With some digging, we realized he was often vaguely—and unknowingly—overwhelmed by what a new task involved. I started going over project instructions with him as soon as they were assigned. I didn't interrogate him exactly, but I calmly asked him to tell me about the project, what parts seemed interesting to him, and where he anticipated needing some help. This process helped clarify the assignment but also unearthed any anxieties or concerns he had about it—all well before the due date. At school he learned to ask his teacher (or class partner) for clarification where needed and to help break the task down into smaller steps. From there, he was able to get going!
You're following those Lego instructions really well, and the pirate ship looks awesome. But you sure get upset when I tell you it's time to stop playing and do your homework. Let's figure out how to make the switch from play to work go better.
When John was hyper-focused on something he loved doing, it seemed like even clear, polite warnings went in one ear and out the other. Sometimes it helped to make eye contact with him as each warning was issued. Eventually, I helped him identify pause points in a game or project—a place where he could save his work, set it aside and return to it later.

Friend of mine and a fellow hunter saved his own life with a CAT device like this.He´d been shot (mistakenly, by a very stupid other hunter some distance away) and they were about 5 hours from the nearest medical facility. He applied it to his let (femoral artery had been nicked) and it allowed them all time to get to the hospital.The crazy thing is that he´d just purchased it a week earlier, just prior to setting out on his hunting trip.

I am really surprised the military stopped using them. Good to see some common sense return.

In a severe cut in which an artery or large vein is severed, fatal exsanguination can occur in moments. Way back in Boy Scouts´ first aid, we learned that in the worst cases, a tourniquet is the only thing that can save one from a fatal arterial bleed. The only caveat is that that part of the body beyond the tourniquet will probably be useless afterward, since its blood supply will be totally shut off. A tourniquet should be used only in the direst situation, when saving the patient´s life (but not his extremity) is all that can be done.

In the case of Shia LeBoeuf, I would recommend the police use the neck tourniquet. Keep on tightening until all resistance ceases.

I took an Emergency Casualty Care course. Now I carry a tourniquet everywhere I go.
Click Here if you Like this Comment 8 persons like this.
To me, the dumbest thing about this is that my old boy scout manual had instructions for using a tourniquet, using a belt or large handkerchief and a stick. It even had instructions to loosen the tourniquet every (??) minutes to keep from getting gangrene. They later, supposedly, changed that part to just leave it on until getting medical aid. Then, mysteriously, the whole idea of a tourniquet just disappeared. I guess along with handkerchiefs? Now, the idea is supposedly new?

WHEN I WAS speechwrit-
This rule was especially relevant to remarks that concerned the central topic of our times, Iraq. Having left the White House more than a year ago, I conclude that the immunizing effect of that rule must have expired, because I now find that I am infected with a hatred for the very quarter that inspired the rule--the deranged, lying left.
I never used to feel hatred for people such as Cindy Sheehan, Harry Belafonte, Danny Glover, or other pop-culture notables who, for example, sing the praises of Central American dictators while calling President Bush the greatest terrorist on earth. I do now.
And though these figures might be dismissed as inconsequential, their views seem mild compared with those of some of our university professors charged with the "higher" education of our youth.
Thus have I come to hate Ward Churchill, the University of Colorado professor who called the Sept. 11 victims of the World Trade Center "little Eichmanns"; Nicholas De Genova, the Columbia professor who loudly wished "a million Mogadishus" on American troops in Iraq; and Kevin Barrett, the University of Wisconsin professor who teaches his students that President Bush was the actual mastermind behind the Sept. 11 attacks.
I used to laugh these people off. Now I detest them as among the most loathsome people America has ever vomited up.
I have also grown to hate certain people of genuine accomplishment like Ted Turner, who, by his own contention, cannot make up his mind which side of the terror war he is on; I hate the executives at CNN, Turner's intellectual progeny, who recently carried water for our enemies by broadcasting their propaganda film portraying their attempts to kill American soldiers in Iraq.
I now hate Howard Dean, the elected leader of the Democrats, who, by repeatedly stating his conviction that we won't win in Iraq, bets his party's future on our nation's defeat.

It's the first game to release for the new service MMOCenter.com. There are details up on the FAQ (llinked above) about the pricing plan (a hefty 19.95 a month) and pre-order perks (did I mention that hefty 19.95 a month?).
I read someplace there's a PreOrder, what will that get me?
PreOrdering is $19.95. PreOrder Perks include:
Discount: A 25% discount on the monthly subscription costs of MMO Center for one full year.
Closed Beta: Early access to our closed beta testing program, including the game client itself, the beta community website packed with inside information and exclusive contest just for pre-order subscribers.
Beta to Live Character Transfer: When MMO Center goes live with its first two games, The Chronicle and Machines, only characters belonging to pre-order subscribers will roll over into the release editions, saving them from being erased or reset. Get ahead. Stay ahead.
Customized Item: Instead of offering characters a stock special item that they often outgrow, pre-order customers will be able to customize a unique item that evolves along with their character. The items are very powerful, and the earlier you pre-order, the more powerful your custom item will be!
I'm sorry.. did I mention that 19.95 a month subscription plan? Whoah Nelly
