Review of "Mosquita y Mari"
Until very recently, lesbian films centered on teenage characters tended toward melodrama. High school romances often ended in tragedy, plot devices often trumped young love, and well-meaning filmmakers were thwarted by various realities of the movie business. Many of these movies were also lily-white, with young women of color typically filling minor roles, if any.
Then Pariah and Circumstance came out last year, throwing all of the stereotypes out the door and presenting worlds that felt genuine, with characters that were believable, vulnerable teens. Joining this list is Mosquita y Mari, portraying an intense teenage relationship between two Chicana girls in the Huntington Park neighborhood of L.A. It's about as real and honest a film as we've seen in recent years, with a script that invites you completely inside the movie's world, and young stars who fill their roles with equal weight and youthful exuberance.
Yolanda (Fenessa Pineda) is a studious 15-year-old daughter of Mexican-American immigrants. She has friends in school, but isn't terribly excited by them. She goes to their parties as a sort of teen default, but she always makes it back home in time and plasters her refrigerator doors with As, to her strict (but loving) parents' delight. She's always the first to figure out the answers in class, but her overworked teachers have enough to deal with in the crowded system.
She drifts happily enough through her existence until an intriguing new neighbor moves in across the street. Mari (Venecia Troncoso) is aloof and pouty – the picture of teenage cool. When Yolanda over-enthusiastically offers to share her textbook in class, Mari calls her an annoying fly – a mosquita – and it's not until Yolanda saves her from trouble (when she nearly gets caught smoking up in the school bathroom) that a friendship blossoms between them.
What begins as a friendly deal to help Mari succeed in school soon takes a life of its own. The girls establish their own hangout in an abandoned garage, they study and talk about life for hours on end. They hang out in each other's houses, walk to school together, and basically, in all the ways that really matter, live together.
The relationship is intense from the start. In one early scene, Mari changes in front of a mirror while Yolanda looks on, attracted (and clearly confused). Jealousies spark when either of the girls receives attention from boys, and their relationship becomes more and more physically affectionate as time marches on. It plays out realistically, with scenes that portray the girls toeing the line between friendly gestures and something much more sexual.
While staying completely within the framework of a personal coming-of-age story, Mosquita y Mari manages to say quite a bit in its 80 minute running time. The way Mari's upbringing contrasts with Yolanda's is particularly telling. Mari's mother works long hours at a minimum wage job, and Mari feels a strong sense of responsibility to help out financially, taking a job handing out flyers at a local business. She takes care of her younger sister in their mother's absence, and feels the pressure from all sides. Yolanda, by contrast, has a more financially stable household, but her parents are just as demanding, requiring her to pull straight A's so that she may go on to college and a high-paying career. Masterfully, both sides of the immigrant experience are presented, and events towards the end of the film shine a particularly sharp light on what that contrast can mean for young people – young girls in particular.
The words "lesbian" or "queer" are never used throughout the movie, but this is very much a film about identity, and it's clear that the girls are very much in love with one another. Where it all gets (realistically) muddy is in the context – what exactly does that mean to a 15-year-old girl struggling with other aspects of her identity?
Through subtle, smart writing and natural, nearly invisible acting, writer/director Aurora Guerrero and her young stars have crafted something incredible. There isn't a false note in the piece – every moment, every object in every scene and every bit of bilingual dialogue feels like it belongs right where it is. And while it contains some heavy subject matter and gritty truths, it's also a very funny, sweet and vibrant production. When the girls walk down the street sharing earbuds, or sail by the train tracks riding one bike, it's impossible not to smile.
Enough good things cannot be said of Pineda and Tronsoco who aren't so much playing their roles as living them. A film this honest lives and dies by its leads, and here, it thrives on the authenticity of our young stars' performances.
It's no surprise that the film is getting major buzz at Sundance at the moment, nor is it a shock to learn that the script was itself workshopped at the festival when Guerrero was selected as a Sundance Institute/Ford Foundation film fellow six years ago. Unlike so many projects that languish over time or get ruined by the "too many chefs" problem, it seems Mosquita y Mari has instead been handled carefully and crafted nearly to perfection.

US Sports Camps is excited to once again present Sacred Heart University Men's Basketball Coach Anthony Latina as director of our Nike Boys Basketball Camp. One of the most popular venues among all of our camp destinations, get ready for a challenging and fun summer of basketball featuring three sessions!
The Complete Skills Camp offers a challenging daily format of fundamental instruction, clinics, drills, and team games. Players will have the opportunity to develop and refine their fundamental basketball skills. Emphasis is placed on fundamental development, shooting, offensive moves, defense, rebounding, and team play, all while having fun!
We cannot offer scholarships due to NCAA regulations. Our affiliation with NCAA coaches and schools puts us in a position where any scholarship money can be seen as an inducement to a future collegiate athlete. This puts our coaches and our host universities in jeopardy of damaging their status with the NCAA and incurring penalties at the hands of their organizing body.
If five or more campers register together, as a group by mail or fax, each camper will receive a $20 discount. If 10 or more campers register together, as a group by mail or fax, each camper will receive a $40 discount. Click "Get Brochure" above and print the application. All applications must be received at the same time via mail or fax. If all members of your group pay with a Visa or MasterCard, feel free to fax your applications to 415-479-6061 to expedite processing. Late or individual registrations are not eligible to receive the group discount.
A detailed camper registration packet containing check-in location, health/release forms, emergency contact numbers, and a checklist of things to bring will be emailed to all registered campers in the Spring. The US Sports Camps health and release forms do not require a physician's signature. The State of Connecticut Health Record Forms require a physician's signature. These forms must be completed and brought to camp check-in on the first day.
Located in beautiful southern Connecticut, Sacred Heart University is home to the impressive William H. Pitt Health and Recreation Center, an excellent facility in which to fine-tune your basketball game. The daily camp format, which includes fundamental instruction, lectures, and team games will leave any young camper with renewed energy and enthusiasm for the game of basketball.
Latina takes over the reins of the program after spending eight seasons as an assistant coach under Coach Bike. Latina joined Head Coach Dave Bike's staff in 2005-06 after spending the previous six seasons as an assistant coach at Central Connecticut State University.
Since his arrival at SHU in 2005, the Pioneers have made five Northeast Conference Tournament appearances including two trips to the NEC Championship game (2007, 2008). Latina helped guide the Pioneers to their best stretch of basketball since making the move to Division I (1999-00), posting 79 wins, including 52 NEC victories, from 2005 through 2010.
With Latina's arrival in 2005-06, the Pioneers have had six players earn All-Northeast Conference honors (Kibwe Trim - 2006, Jarrid Frye - 2006, 2007, Joe Henley - 2009, Drew Shubik - 2008, Corey Hassan - 2010, Shane Gibson - 2012, 2013), two NEC All-Rookie team picks (Chauncey Hardy - 2007, Chris Evans - 2011) and a NEC Most Improved Player award winner (Liam Potter - 2010).
During his time at CCSU, he helped guide the Blue Devils to two NCAA Tournament appearances, and three trips to the Northeast Conference title game. His duties at Central included recruiting and scouting opponents, as well as individual player development. He was part of the staff that helped produce the first-ever NBA draft pick from CCSU, Corsley Edwards, who was taken in the second round by the Sacramento Kings in 2002.
Prior to joining Central Connecticut's staff, Latina worked for four years as an assistant coach at Division II UMass-Lowell.
I really loved the Nike camp. I made friends, had lots of fun, and learned so much. My high school coach tells me that my game has improved tremendously. Thank you all so much.
Staff was very enthusiastic without being high pressure. The range of activities kept my son interested and excited to go every day. He thought having lunch in the cafeteria was SO cool. He also really respected his coach and called him "cool".
This was the last summer that I was eligible to attend a Nike camp and I chose to come back to the Sacred Heart Basketball camp because I had learned so much from them the previous 2 times that I had been there. I have been offered a full scholarship to continue my basketball career in college and I believe that the Sacred Heart staff helped me to develop into the post player that I am today and helped me to reach a level to be able to play in college.
This camp was SO WELL ORGANGIZED. My son received personalized instruction and a written review of his skills. Drop-off and pick-up were a snap. There was absolutely no confusion. The Sacred Heart University facilities were super-clean and well maintained. My son wishes to return next year. He also felt that he had learned something! This was not the case at other camps!! Kudos to Coach Anthony Latina for running a well organized, worthwhile basketball camp!
Coach Anthony is superb! He knows how to lead boys, how to manage all the different aspects of their athletic needs. he is supportive, a great communicator and an all round wonderful person.
2015 camp dates and prices coming soon. Subscribe now to receive camp updates or call 1-800-645-3226.

No, we're not talking about the icky-sweet stuff in iridescent colors that we pulled from wooden crates at the family reunion when we were kids. This is the adult version of cherry soda: not too sweet, just the right amount of carbonation, sold in real bottles, with a luscious, deep-purple hue and flavor that bears some resemblance to an actual fruit. Though IBC, better known for its root beer, has its roots in St. Louis, its sodas are now bottled right here in Plano, and IBC black cherry flavor is so much better than the mass-market brands' cherry concoctions. If you haven't had cherry soda since you were 6, it's time to reacquaint your taste buds.

Review this movie
Jul 1, 2014An atrocious attempt to make the audience feel sorry for the poor psychopathic mass murderer. Carpenter himself said that the audience should never try and relate with Michael Myers. Even if we took the broken childhood explanation at face value, it still seems inadequate, since everyone around Michael already is a reprehensible supervillain in the making.
The part of Dr. Loomis' reactions in the original Halloween was paramount to the full Michael Myers experience, here Loomis is just an incompetent bumbler who needs to remind the audience constantly that he failed in his treatment of Michael.
Even the horror factor is too much in your face to make it build up any tension from one jumpscare to another.… Expand
Oct 17, 2013THIS IS WHAT ROB ZOMBIE MADE OF MY FAVOURITE HORROR FILM? Well, this is. This is it. My review of watching a crappy version of Halloween. Director Rob Zombie returns with his reimagining of John Carpenter's classic- Halloween. You must be thinking- is this the same cheap excellent horror? Nope. Not at all. Halloween has 90% more sex than the original and 100% more gore than the original. Sex and horror work. Well, at least for some movies. Halloween isn't that crappy, ya know. Rob Zombie has great imagination here and does what the trailer promises. It's demons, sex and gore. What we want. The problem with this one is that boobs are not something that makes a slasher movie. This film has so much sexual and bloody issues that Carpenter's cult was wwwaaaaaaaaayyyyy better. Zombie gathers an okay cast but makes a cheesy sex, rock and roll version of Carpenter's classic.… Expand
Oct 10, 2013Zombie does not succeed here. The movie is a hollow remake of the satisfying original, and doesn't live up to it at all, even in a "remake" kind of way.
Jun 20, 2013Finally the retelling of the classic story of a killer escaping a mental asylum and returning to his home town to continue his killing spree. To think that it wouldn't be too hard to remake such a simple idea, but I was surprised in how brutal, and how boring this flick is. I mean wow, is it that hard to make a remake about something that isn't that hard to do. Yet here we got two different films, the origin part and the remake part. In all honesty the first part is the only part that is somewhat interesting. We sorta get the history of Michael Myers, that he was just a messed up kid in a bad family environment. I'am just inserting my opinion here, but wouldn't be more interesting if he was a messed up child, but had good parents? I don't know, I don't know what the right decision would have been. I am going to say right now what the major problem of this flick is: it's too brutal. To think that a horror movie can be too cruel, but here it's different. The original was great for its subtle killings and camera technique, it's the exact opposite here. Too much violence, and an annoying shaking camera. The only good parts in this movie are the people who play Michael Myers, the kid is pretty creepy, and that Sabertooth guy (Taylor Mane) is pretty bruiting.… Expand
Jan 22, 2013A movie so utterly devoid of tension, it desperately tries to make up for it with T&A, gore and constant action. Athough it delivers all of the latter, it never comes together and every scene seems like it was smacked on just because the director needed the actors to have somewhere to go so he could film 'm. Will definitely not be known as a classic, not a cult horror nor even an amusing B-horror movie. It is just plain bad.… Expand
Dec 9, 2012I've watched and re-watched this movie despite myself, trying to find some reason not to finally and conclusively write off Rob Zombie as a one-note hack... and I simply can't do it. Not only does he fail to capture any of the style and essence of John Carpenter's source material, he can barely make this movie stand on its own legs. Don't be fooled by the vastly improved production values
Mar 20, 2012Really disappointing. This film is not only meant to be a remake of the brilliant horror film Halloween from the 70s but it is also meant to explore and explain how Michael became the brutal killer that he is, but this film fails on both fronts. It doesn't really explain why he is a murderer, instead we just see Michael killing people as a child and by the time the film reaches the classic Halloween premise with Michael returning as an adult, the film just turns into completely mindless gore and violence that quickly stops being scary. There's just nothing clever in the horror, the only things it has to offer are its jump scares and its gore. There also seems to be a number of completely pointless events to get a reaction from the audience, such as a random rape scene...I'm not joking. This film had potential but it has sadly failed to give us anything more than just a few mild scares.… Expand
Jan 26, 2012Really no need for this movie. Does Hollywood have any new ideas nowadays? Rob Zombie has interesting ideas, but they go to waste in this pile of poo. Who's really interested in disgusting people, who we don't care about, do horrible things for 109 minutes? The film is like going into a strip club at 6 in the morning, you just feel dirty and stupid.
Aug 12, 2011I hated this movie. I know he wanted to expand on the idea of the sibling relationship and explore Michael's childhood, but honestly who cares? All I could think was how I wanted it to get to him when he was older. The simple story that the first Halloween portrayed was utterly ruined.
Jun 12, 2011When I watched the original Halloween I just remember thinking "this needs more boob and blood." Oh wait no I didn't. One thing thats been lost on the horror genre is that we as an audience don't need to see everything. We all have our imaginations and most of the time that can be a whole lot scarier then anything that can be put on screen. I don't need to see every single gory detail of the murder just the person being killed by the killer can be scary enough. Also why did we need the rape scene. It did nothing to further the plot except in telling us that Michael got out while two red necks were raping a girl. The theater version didn't have the rape and I didn't have any issues with how he got out. The only positive from this movie is that it does a good job of giving a back story too Michael. But the truth is we didn't need a back story, again no back story is almost scarier. Watch the original its a much better film.… Expand
Apr 22, 2011Horrifically brutal, unoriginal, topped with a poor script and cast, Halloween is one of the worst remakes to hit the horror genre yet. It is hard to watch not only from the gore, but also from every other individual aspect. Pass on this one.
Mar 22, 2011After watching so many greatest horror movies of all time, I heard that this remake was made and I haven't even seen it in theaters besides other great movies in 2007. Later, I decided to watch this on Youtube just to look at it. When I saw Michael Myers' parents arguing at each other, I was like, "Did that happen in the 1970s version?", and waited to see Michael kill her sister Judith Myers(just like that other movie), but When I saw his mother kill herself after seeing Michael killing another person, I stopped watching it and went on to something else.
I hate to say this, but Rob Zombie just simply failed to put some charm from the original. I mean, some of the scenes have reenactments from the original and Malcolm Mcdowell was the right actor for Dr. Loomis, but the storyline was very confusing, so uninteresting, and boringly dull. I'm sorry, but Rob Zombie would've at least try to make this remake good.
This movie may not be the worst ever, but its just forgettable.
At my highest hopes, this one deserves a 4/10 thanks to its reenactments and Malcolm Mcdowell.… Expand
Leaves nothing to the imagination: Michael Myers is always right there in plain sight, committing mayhem sans suspenseful buildup or mystique.
This is not a good movie but, considering what Halloween has evolved into over the course of seven sequels, it's perhaps better than it has a right to be.
As it stands, he made a noble attempt, and it could've been a Hell of a lot worse, but it's not as great a film as its potential hints at.

Crafting with Kids: Using Kits is Okay

Dubnyk, Reimer or Schneider? Part III
Thomas Drance
September 08 2011 02:16PM
Patience will be key for Cory Schneider. He's also the cream of the crop.
Image courtesy Brendan Hoare.
Earlier this summer, I asked independent goalie scout and hockey writer Justin Goldman (AKA The Goalie Guild) for his take on who was likely to have the best career among James Reimer, Devan Dubnyk and Cory Schneider. He told me he liked all of them, but that at gunpoint he'd go with Cory Schneider. As a Canucks fan I was happy to hear that, but I was unsatisfied by the 140 character limit answer – I needed to know why. So I e-mailed him, and asked if he'd be interested in discussing the matter further with me. What follows is the elaborate answer I was looking for. In part I of the series, we profiled James Reimer over at LeafsNation. In part II we looked at Devan Dubnyk over at OilersNation. Today, we conclude the series with Cory Schneider.
Of the three goaltenders we're discussing, I'd ask you to rank them in terms of who has the highest ceiling and why?
As of right now, I would definitely go with Cory Schneider first. Then it's pretty close between Dubnyk and Reimer, but I'd put Dubnyk second and Reimer third. For Schneider, his combination of size, positioning and experience is just a bit higher than what I see with Devan Dubnyk and James Reimer. In general, a goalie's combination of size, speed and overall experience plays a major role in how I value their long-term upside.
What does Cory Schneider do well, what does he need to work on?
Cory is one of the most well-rounded young goaltenders in the NHL. Everything about his size, speed, angles, positioning, reactions, his visual attachment to the puck...I could go on and on listing all the elements that he's good at. But what I really like about Schneider is that he's also mentally tough. He has already proved that he knows how to come off the bench and win hockey games.
CA Prospect Profiles: Jordan Schroeder
Thomas Drance
September 08 2011 01:09PM
Entering the 2009 NHL Draft, and coming off a lights-out WCHA rookie campaign - Jordan Schroeder was ranked as the fifth best North American skater by Central Scouting. Schroeder's speed and offensive skills were highly regarded, however, concerns about his size (or lack thereof) caused him to plummet down into the latter half of the first round, where Mike Gillis snapped him up with the 22nd overall pick. By the time Schroeder was drafted, 15 other North American skaters had been picked. It looked like the Canucks had a potential steal on their hands.
Oreskovich, Canucks Finally Agree to Terms

Remember a few weeks ago when the news broke that Luongo was to be honoured by the Italian Walk of Fame? Remember how they said that he was "often referred to as the greatest goalie that ever lived" and we all had a good laugh at that? Well yesterday was the induction ceremony, and Luongo was mobbed on College St. by Canucks fans, passersby and Munga Cakes alike!

Typically, we are happy to get awards. But, it is unlikely that any of the restaurants on the list of "Extreme Eating Awards" are thrilled to be there.
We are getting more savvy in understanding that mindless overeating isn't about personal failure. Let me repeat. It's not about failure that so many people are apt to overeat. There are so many reasons that we easily get railroaded into mindless eating--a friend brings over a cake, we are celebrating a birthday, lack of sleep, being tired after work and ordering a pizza, stress eating... One of the many factors has to do with our toxic food environment. There is an abundance of food options that just aren't healthy. And, these foods don't help us to eat in a mindful way (manipulating our taste buds to expect super sweet foods and getting us hooked on highly salted foods).
Let's face it. The foods we eat are often incredibly deceptive. Even when you are trying to eat healthier, you run up against many obstacles.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia - View original article
Sydney, the largest city in Australia, has an extensive network of passenger and freight railways. The passenger network is a hybrid metro-suburban railway with a central underground core running at metro style frequencies, which branches out into a suburban commuter type network. The system also carries freight, and there is a separate network of freight lines, some of which are disused.
Passenger service is operated in Sydney by RailCorp under the CityRail brand. Trains operate for 20 hours a day, and over 1 million weekday passenger journeys are made on 2365 daily services over 2080 km of track and through 306 stations (including interurban lines).[1] Suburban services operates along the portions of the main lines from Sydney to the north, west, south and south-west, and also along several dedicated suburban lines. All of these lines are electrified at overhead 1500 V DC, starting in 1926.
Most suburban services operate through central Sydney via the underground City Circle (a horseshoe-shaped line), the Eastern Suburbs underground line, or over the Harbour Bridge. There are long term plans for a new underground line passing beneath Pitt Street to a new harbour crossing (known as MetroPitt), and a long-standing concept for a new underground line that will pass down the western side of the central business district (known as MetroWest). Whether either of these will be built remains to be seen.
Timetables are published for all lines, and most lines run on headways of 15 minutes in peak periods, half-hourly off-peak and weekends. Headways are closer over shared routes. Although frequencies match metro style operation in the city core, few Sydneysiders use the underground network as a metro, most journeys being commuter trips from suburbs into the central city area. An exception to this is the Eastern Suburbs line which serves the high density inner eastern suburbs and opened in 1979.
All suburban passenger trains in Sydney are double-deck electric multiple units. Upon electrification in the 1920s Sydney operated single-deck multiple units but these were progressively withdrawn from the 1960s until their final demise in 1993. Single-deck cars may be reintroduced if the proposed 'metro' lines are constructed.
Electric cars are maintained at depots at Hornsby in the northern suburbs, Mortdale in the southern suburbs, and Flemington in the western suburbs. A depot at Punchbowl in the southwest closed in 1994 and has since been demolished. These four depots were all built and opened with the opening of electrified services in the 1920s.
Heavy maintenance of passenger cars was carried out at the Suburban Car Workshops at Redfern, now closed. Heavy maintenance is now contracted out to Maintrain, a private company with workshops at Clyde. All M (known as "Millennium") and H (known as "Oscar", for Outer Suburban CAR) Sets are maintained at Eveleigh Depot, which is located near Redfern.
Freight services operate over most of the suburban railway lines in Sydney, however due to the high frequency of passenger services and the lack of freight only tracks, there is a curfew on freight movements during peak hours.[2]
The major interstate freight routes are the Main Southern and Main North lines, with the Illawarra and Main Western lines serving lineside industries and as alternate interstate routes. In the inner city area the Metropolitan Goods Lines connects major freight terminals to the main passenger lines, but expansion of the network has not followed that of the suburban services. The Southern Sydney Freight Line is underway to connect the western end of the Metropolitan Goods Lines to the Main South at a point beyond the suburban services.[3]
The main traffic is containerised freight. The main intermodal terminal are at Camellia, Leightonfield, Yennora and Minto.[4] Interstate train to Sydney terminals are up to 1500 metres long, while short-haul container trains from the terminals to the Port Botany seaport are around 600 metres long.[2] Coal services to Port Kembla are another major traffic. Freight operators include Pacific National, QRNational, Independent Rail, Australian Railroad Group, Southern and Silverton Rail and Patrick Port Logistics.[5]
The first railway in Sydney was opened between Sydney and Parramatta in 1855.[6] This railway formed the basis of the New South Wales railways and was owned by the government. Passenger and freight services were operated from the beginning. By 1880, there was half hourly service to Homebush.
In 1884, the railway opened from Strathfield to Hornsby. The North Shore line opened in 1893 to a harbour side station at Milson's Point, and was originally built because parliament thought it would be a shorter route for country produce from the north to Sydney Harbour (a role it has never fulfilled).[citation needed] Sydney's first deliberately suburban railway was a line to Belmore which opened in 1896 and was soon extended to Bankstown.
Sydney's suburban passenger service was severely hampered by the inconvenient location of its city terminus, at a site south of Devonshire Street. Most of Sydney's population was well served by trams, and the suburban railways had relatively little initial role to play. This was to change in the 1920s.
The railway system as it exists today is really the result of the vision and foresight of John Bradfield, one of Australia's most respected and famous civil engineers. He was involved in the design and construction of Sydney underground railways in the 1920s and 1930s, but he is more famous for the associated design and construction of the Sydney Harbour Bridge.
The electrification of the passenger network began in 1926[7] with the first suburban electric service running between Sydney's Central Station and the suburb of Oatley approximately 20 km south of Sydney. In the same year, the first underground railway was constructed from Central Station to St James in Sydney's CBD . Electric trains that had previously terminated at the Central Station continued north, diving underground at the Goulburn Street tunnel portal, stopping at Museum underground station and then terminating at St James.
Other lines were quickly electrified soon after. Also, in conjunction with the construction of the Sydney Harbour Bridge which opened in 1932, an additional underground line in downtown Sydney was constructed, connecting the North Shore line with Central Station via two downtown stations – Town Hall and Wynyard. It was only in 1956 that the two CBD lines were linked via the Circular Quay viaduct, which allowed services to make a continuous run through the city and return to the suburbs without having to terminate.
New electrified lines were built:
The rail network in the metropolitan area of Sydney is owned, maintained and operated by RailCorp, a NSW State Government owned corporation. Third party access to Railcorp's tracks by other freight operators is allowed under an open-access arrangement. Track outside the Sydney metropolitan area is operated and maintained by the Australian Rail Track Corporation. RailCorp operates passenger trains under the Cityrail brand, and long distance trains run through Sydney under the Countrylink brand.
RailCorp was formed on 1 January 2004 by the merger of the State Rail Authority (SRA) and the metropolitan functions of the Rail Infrastructure Corporation. Until 1972, railways in NSW were operated by the New South Wales Government Railways until this department was replaced by the Public Transport Commission (PTC), which was also responsible for bus and ferry services. In 1980 the PTC was broken up into the State Rail Authority, responsible for rail services, and the Urban Transit Authority (UTA), responsible for bus and ferry services. The UTA later became the State Transit Authority.
In 2001, the State Rail Authority had its 'above track' operations separated from its track ownership and maintenance operations. The track maintenance operations and track ownership were moved to the new Rail Infrastructure Corporation (RIC). However this separation into a horizontally operated rail system was criticised for the passing of blame for rail delays and accidents between authorities, and in 2004 railways in Sydney became a vertically operated system again with the creation of Railcorp, a fusion of the State Rail Authority and the urban sections of the RIC.
All Sydney trains use standard gauge, with a distance of 1,435 mm (4 ft 8 1⁄2 in) between the rails.
The railways in Sydney generally use British-derived terminology.
Four main 'trunk' lines radiate from Sydney to the north, south, west, and southwest:
Other passenger lines branch from or interconnect with the four main lines:
Several railway lines carry goods only:
There are several closed lines in Sydney:
One line is under construction:
Several enhancement projects are underway as part of the Rail Clearways programme, the largest of which is a quadruplication of the East Hills line between Kingsgrove and Revesby.
As of April 2011, the following lines have been proposed or are under construction:
Sydney has four underground lines.
Sydney has several disused tunnels. The best known of these are those leading out of St James station. There are also several disused tunnels and platforms on the Eastern Suburbs line, which like St James station provided for the possibility of four tunnels even though only two are in use. There is a stub tunnel at North Sydney railway station, north of platform 2, for a never constructed Manly to Mona Vale line.[9][1].
From the top of the northern stair to platform 10 at Redfern Station it is possible to view the unfinished structure for the low-level "up" (toward Central) Southern Suburbs platforms. The associated never-used tunnels are quite complex. Immediately to your left is the (surface level) stub tunnel for the "down" Southern Suburbs track. This short tunnel exits on the northern side of Lawson Street road bridge. There are at least nine railway tunnels under the suburb of Redfern: some in use, some never used.
Platforms 26 and 27 at Central lie above the Eastern Suburbs Railway platforms and have never been used for trains.[10] Like St. James station, these stations have stub tunnels, although they are much shorter.
There are two tunnels for the old Pyrmont goods line, not part of the passenger railway system. One runs underneath Railway Square, between the Central station railway yards and the Powerhouse Museum, the other underneath Glebe. The first tunnel is now only used to service the Powerhouse Museum, but the old railway from the Powerhouse Museum to Lilyfield, including Glebe tunnel, has been converted to form part of the Metro Light Rail line from Central station (see Metropolitan Goods Line).
Also of interest is a tunnel connecting the Eveleigh rail yards, on the southern side of the main line, to the northern side of the main line, just past Redfern.

The Myth of Communication: Roger Graef OBE
The Myth of Communication: Roger Graef OBE
We assume when we try to communicate that the other person(s) will get the message in every sense of the word. But this is wishful thinking. Professor Roger Graef explores how dangerous it is to assume that the recipient has taken both the words and the intention in the form you would wish. It's not just a matter of language, or erratic technology – spam isn't just a technical problem. It's a state of mind.
Professor Roger Graef OBE is an award winning film-maker, criminologist, broadcaster and writer. He is best known for his unstaged observational films in normally closed places like government ministries, corporation board rooms, international institutions including the EU and UN, as well as prisons, probation, special schools, and social work.
Many of his films have influenced business, diplomacy, policing, social and criminal justice policy. Most recently, THE TROUBLE WITH ADOPTION: A Panorama Special helped the government promise of speedier adoptions. Other recent films include THE TROUBLE WITH PIRATES about Somalia, and GREAT ORMOND STREET, following consultants making ground-breaking life and death decisions, and the online project CERNpeople, short films for Google using access to CERN in Geneva. All these were created through his production company Films of Record.
He was a founding board member of Channel 4, was on the board of London Transport and co-designed the bus map., He is currently one of three commissioners on the RIBA Future of Homes Commission.
He writes and broadcasts regularly on social and criminal justice and communications. He is the author of TALKING BLUES, Police in their Own Words, LIVING DANGEROUSLY: young offenders in their own words, and WHY RESTORATIVE JUSTICE?
In 2004 he was the first documentary maker awarded the BAFTA Fellowship for lifetime achievement.
In 2006 he was given an OBE.
He was News International Visiting Professor of Communications at Oxford University, and is now Visiting Professor at the Mannheim Centre for Criminology at the LSE. He has been an Independent Advisor to the Metropolitan Police on race since 1999, and is an advisor to the Sentencing Council. He is currently Chair of the Media Standards Trust, and the theatre company Complicite.

Lisa Blake – Breath As Inspiration
To explore the connection between breath, air, and the word inspiration: "We are what and how we breathe, so paying attention to breath and air quality is crucial. We can live for weeks without food, days without water, but only minutes without breath." A short talk about the environment, specifically air quality, will link to the word inspiration meaning both intake of breath and the passion that leads to action. The program will conclude with the audience participating in a short breath meditation

How to counter premature optimisation

Thanks for all of the thoughtful feedback on Optimization - the right way, the wrong way and the highway. :-}
Optimization only where and when it is needed. That's the clear message you send.
A postcard from Intel in Lisbon
Parallel Needs New Designs
Parallel programming is tough and will remain so, but it need not be one step short of impossible.
One of the keys to good parallel programs is the decomposition of the job into tasks which perform independent (or close to that) operations. The highest level of this needs to be done at the design stage.
Multitasking happens at two scales - the large individual tasks and the small steps that make up a task. In many cases, working at the task level is enough for effective parallel programming, but where individual tasks are large, they may need to be done in parallel steps, essentially a micro tasking.
However, micro tasking steps runs a danger of increasing complexity and overhead. So the task level parallel work will require design level choices, while the step level parallelism will need checking and testing for overhead. If the steps are so small that parallel code is a 50% overhead, the extra complexity will probably not pay useful dividends.
Ultimately, if task level parallelism still can't handle the workload, the best answer may be splitting the workload and running multiple copies of the whole program, essentially segmenting the workload rather than increasing the internal level of parallel programming.
We already do this in multiple system web servers or file servers as Akami uses. But the same segmentation and replicatiion approach could be a better answer than trying to increase parallel operations at the micro level because of overhead.
What would a 'software guarantee' look like in practice?
Software "Guarantees"
Being an old QA hack, I notice that the guarantees, good in themselves, come without defined *quality* standards.
While the implied standards would be 'Does the job' or similar statement, the lack of any specifics would make me (as a customer) quite uncomfortable. I can easily see an exaggerated situation where the software meets the startup requirements, but fails under additional use shortly thereafter.
So how does a customer specify quality and performance requirements, and how does the vendor verify that such requirements are met?
Delivery guarantees are a good start, but I'd be happier with a quality guarantee and worry less about slipped delivery. Late deliveries can be lived with, up to a point, but poor quality on an operational system can be a disaster.
Let's make sure we have the emphasis on the right component.
Microsoft offers Architects a view
Architecture is Important
"The great thing about Standards is that there are so many of them."
The good and bad news all in one sentence. But Architecture is the real issue here, and it too suffers the problem of standards.
Architecture may be more important than standards. It sets the playing field for a set of applications that (are supposed to) accomplish a specific set of purposes. But the conflict in architecture design arrives when the desire for clear limits to the design space confronts the need for future flexability. Often times the future flexability wins out and the architecture becomes ill defined and less than useful.
This is a bad approach 90% of the time. The key to clean application design and implementation is a clear set of limits, not something that looks like an amoeba.
The best way I have to convey my view of how this should be done is to list the best and worst ways to design:
1. The all inclusive design: Design is finished when you can no longer add any features, AKA 'Kitchen Sink' design.
2. The exclusive design: Design is done when you can no longer take anything away, AKA the Einstein design criterion.
Note that #1 is Microsoft's design philosophy, and it gives us products like Word, which will do almost anything you want after a few years of training and experience. My personal selection, having tried both when I was younger, is #2.
Architecture defines the playing field for systems, and it should follow the principle in #2 for almost all systems. It is only where systems are probing the boundaries, experimenting with approaches, that approach #1 is useful, and even there well defined boundaries should exist if only to limit the time spent in marginal areas.
In both cases, experience and critical analysis of the purpose for the system should be your ultimate guide. The closer you can come to a limited, well defined playing field, #2, the more stable and reliable will be the product.
Virtually developed
Virtual Development Setup
I suspect the takeup for this item will not be great.
Why? It's simple - developers are at the bottom of the food chain, especially as they are seen as an expense item, not an investment (by most shops).
Most places, and I've worked in a number, put their faith in more people and fewer systems. The potential productivity payoff for a big virtual development, and double that for a QA environment, is very hard to demonstrate on paper.
And therein lies the rub. In order to maximize productivity with a big virtual system, the system also needs to run some software that keeps the whole development process organized from inspiration to delivery.
It will require training, another expense, ongoing education, ditto, and run into the rock wall that is the mindset of most developers - resistance to change. Essentially "I already know how to program, so why do I have to learn this stuff?" attitude.
There will be exceptions, and those exceptions will slowly seed the mindset of developers with new ideas. Over time, say five years, the idea will gain strength *if* the first set of installs works well.
Yes, it could work. But I'd rather bet on the leading apprentice jockey to place than this revolution to succeed, because it really requires revoltionary changes in the developer environment and mindset.

Even in Europe, women's reproductive rights are under attack. We're investigating.
Why we care: While much of the media coverage of the "war on women" focuses on the United States, there is a hidden attack on women's reproductive freedoms in the "more progressive" European Union.
How we're solving this: We're putting women across France in the spotlight to have a say on how women's rights laws are changing in Europe. The Women's eNews reporting team will provide an on-the-ground picture of the situation in France to expose the consequences of tightening laws on reproductive rights.
This year, Spain's government backed a proposal to severely restrict the country's abortion laws. The move has been a wake-up call for how quickly various women's rights can disappear. The major debate and backlash in France, spurred by Spain's actions, provides a window into how restricting women's rights in one European country can have larger, wide-reaching, and long-term repercussions for all European women.
Our team will conduct extensive interviews with health care and abortion providers, women seeking reproductive health care, protesters and other women's rights activists and government officials in France and bordering Spanish towns. Our reporting will amplify the voices and opinions of women across the country, including those who support and oppose France's current attempts to change women's rights laws.
Juhie Bhatia, Women's eNews managing editor, who has done extensive reporting on health and women's issues around the world, and Hajer Naili, Women's eNews staff reporter and an international journalist focused on women's rights, will spearhead the reporting. The final multimedia project will include stories, video and photos that will increase overall coverage of this important issue, by bringing it to the mainstream media's attention and by providing a framework for a sensitive approach.
As one Women's eNews reader, a former foreign correspondent, said, "Women's eNews has made…dismissive treatment more or less impossible now by creating a steady drumbeat of compelling and well-researched news items about women's situation that editors cannot ignore or dismiss as isolated cases." Support journalism that gives women a voice.

Hi guys, haven't gotten around, but now posting on eBay, Craigslist and here to sell my iPhone 4S. It is on Verizon, but is gevey SIM unlocked to use other carriers. It has custom see through front and back glass with two clear protector screen protectors. Best ones around, scratch proof, bubble proof and can re apply them as many times as you want. Its jailbroken on the 5.1.1 firmware, even though the new 6.0.1 can now be jailbroken. Will upload pics soon, since I'm posting from my phone. I'm asking $300 O.B.O. Will negotiate. Will throw in a brand new white/black hardcore ballistic case for an extra $25 on top of settled price. Also has a custom black midframe, here are some pictures.
New in box. Only opened to check contents, everything still sealed. $500 FIRM. Retails for $550 from AT&T.
I won this on an Android forum I frequent, but can't use it (I'm on T-Mobile, this is an AT&T phone). I REALLY wanted to use this phone along with my Nexus 4, but alas...i can not. Serious first world problem right there...
This is truly an amazing phone, one of the best and fastest out there...literally. The screen and camera are seriously insane. Buy it outright and avoid contracts! If you are like me and like to get a new phone every year (or less), you can buy a phone outright, keep it for a year, sell it for almost what you paid for it and upgrade again to the newest phone for less than $100 bucks. Or...keep the phone until it breaks and not have to worry about being stuck on a contract with your carrier. Win/Win!

My research is centered on investigating the structural and dynamical aspects of protein-small molecule interactions using techniques such as vibrational spectroscopy and T-jump relaxation. One aspect of the work is to understand enzyme-substrate interactions which have long been recognized as representing an extreme expression of structural complementarities in biological chemistry. Basic research geared towards understanding the inner workings of an enzyme system is important if cures for the diseases caused by a malfunctioning or deficient enzyme are to be found. Our group is investigating the hydride transfer mechanism involved in the enzyme dihydropteridine reductase. DHPR is important in the normal cycling of tetrahydrobiopterin, an essential cofactor in the synthesis of serotonin and cathecholamine precursors. Regulation of DHPR became of interest with the discovery of atypical phenylketonuria, a neurological disorder associated with a defect in tetrahydrobiopterin recycling.

main index
"Not only so, but we also glory in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance; perseverance, character; and character, hope."Misery Builds Character is a Stock Aesop and Stock Phrase that unpleasant, distasteful activities and events are good, because the suffering that the subject goes through will help his personal and spiritual development in some vague, unspecified manner. Sometimes quoted as "A little suffering is good for the soul," or as Friedrich Nietzsche puts it, "what doesn't kill you makes you stronger". When done right, the trope can show that someone can grow and mature once they had their share of humble pie or have suffered enough to build themselves up and get past their suffering. If done wrong, the trope can imply that you can only become a better person by suffering rather than building character on good deeds. This message is often delivered by a parent (or Parental Substitute) to a Bratty Half-Pint as part of a set of instructions or admonitions. If the addressee is a Mouthy Kid or Little Miss Snarker, a sarcastic rejoiner is all but inevitable. Of course, this trope is not limited to children, and the phrase can be used between adults as well. A form of Necessary Fail. Also see If It Tastes Bad, It Must Be Good for You, Teach Him Anger, and When I Was Your Age. Please, do not mistake for Stephen King's book, that...goes a little too far from this.

Boot selection failed...Status 0xc000000e, and my SSD gone from Bios!
Hi there,
I am getting since few weeks blue screen error message and computer crash right after that. The problem become very persistent and two days ago I got crash again and at new booting the black screen poped up with a message :
I went into Bios and make sure it boots in right order but I couldn't find my SSD disc at all. The order I had was:
P1: HL-DT-ST BD-RE BH10LS30 - Which is my DVD Rom
P4: WDC WD 6400AAKS-75A - my Internal HDD Wester Digital Caviar blue ...( it is not recongisable in windows environment though) - can't see it in My Computer.
UEFI disk is on the third position an is labeled same as first one DVD Rom with green UEFI label across the icon.
All in all it was keep going back to the error message.
I opened my case and switched SATA cables - then suddenly find my SSD in Boot queue, put discs in order
SSD, DVD, ... and booted correctly!!! nevertheless after 30 minutes problem appeared again and my SSD disapeared from boot queue in Bios but still appear in bios menu - where I cannot change order though (it does only in main view EZ Menu. Meanwhile I did next few restarts my CD Rom changed booting position in Bios for some reason - then I switched SATA cable again and set it back to order. The only option which allowed me to boot system with success was a reset button on the back of my mobo. Didn't work every time however. computer keep freezing approx ever half an hour and I don't know what to do.
I Cannot set right order in Bios as my SSD is not recognised in bios boot order - while it does in bios menu!!

If you've installed to SSD in UEFI mode then the Windows Boot Manager might need to be in first position in BIOS Boot Priority order.
Do you have a bootable OS on the HDD, or did you previously so that boot code might still be on it if it hasn't been wiped yet?
