The Krewe of Alla Goes Coed
The Krewe of Alla, which was established in 1932, is proud to announce that it welcomes women to join the organization. Its board of directors has adopted Bylaws that remove the krewe's all-male distinction, which it held for 82 years. It is anticipated that Alla will draw couples and families (children age 16 and older) who want to join in the merriment and fellowship that Carnival clubs offer."We are very excited that women, who have ridden with us as guests for the past two years may become members with all the privileges that entails," said John A. Beninate II, Alla's captain. "We heard from many of our members' spouses, daughters, and girlfriends who want to be members, not merely guests, of our organization. There's no reason they shouldn't be, and I'm happy to accept them into our ranks. This is a historic moment for Alla, which has a storied place in New Orleans' Carnival history and rode on the Uptown route this year for the first time." Alla's next membership meeting, which is open to the public, will be held at 7:00 p.m., Wednesday, September 3, at Mardi Gras World, 1380 Port of New Orleans Place, New Orleans. Those wishing to join the krewe may pay dues online at www.kreweofalla.net/join and may follow the krewe on Facebook and Twitter. Dues are only $450 and the krewe does not require members to purchase throw packages, event tickets, or pay an initiation fee.Alla was founded in Algiers and takes its name for that locale (Al., La.). It parades on the St. Charles Avenue route on the first Sunday of Carnival and is the fifth-oldest parading organization in the New Orleans area. . - KREWEOFALLA.NET
New Mardi Gras parade rules passed by City Council; Tucks is in the clear
Krewe of Tucks riders will be able to toss their toilet paper for the foreseeable future, but other krewes and marching groups will have to make changes to comply with new parading rules approved by the City Council.Councilwoman LaToya Cantrell said the new rules are aimed at making Mardi Gras safer for revelers and float riders alike.The rules:
•No generators on truck floats: All electricity will have to come from power inverters in the trucks.•Age limits on riders: No children younger than 3 can ride.•Cap the number of parade permits: The city will issue no more than 30 permits each year, though all existing parading groups will be granted a permit if they paraded the previous year. Right now there are 33 permitted groups.•Strict fire codes for floats and flambeaux.The rules requiring power inverters for truck floats don't go into effect until 2016. District Chief Charles Jonau said the delay was meant to allow parading groups time to absorb the cost of the new equipment, which will cost them several thousand dollars to buy and install.Sonny Borey, chairman of the mayor's Mardi Gras Advisory Committee, a group that represents the parading organizations, said the new rules were backed by all of the board's members. Cantrell said that there is one remaining change to Mardi Gras rules that she would like to see in place: a prohibition against throwing heavy beads and bags of beads.She said that she and her staff are working on the particulars. If they have them ironed out by next month, or so, and are approved by the council, the new limits would be in place for Carnival next year. If not, they wouldn't go into effect until 2016, so krewes don't waste money on throws they can't use.. - NOLACOM
Metairie's Krewe of Zeus applies for St. Charles Parish parade permit
After losing its permit to parade in Jefferson Parish, the Krewe of Zeus is now seeking a parade permit in St. Charles Parish, hoping to roll on Ormond Boulveard in 2015, parish officials said. Sheriff Greg Champagne is now considering the application which was filed July 7. If the permit is approved, Zeus would roll down Ormond Boulevard on the evening of Saturday, Feb. 7. Fat Tuesday in 2015 is Feb. 17. Although St. Charles has a handful of other parades, there appear to be no other parades scheduled that night.The proposed route of the parade is from Ormond Plantation on River Road west to Ormond Boulevard. The parade will then proceed northbound on Ormond Boulevard to Greenwood Drive where it will make a u-turn on Ormond Boulevard and proceed southbound on the boulevard to River Road and then eastbound back to Ormond Plantation. The route of the parade is essentially an out and back route for almost the entire length of Ormond Boulevard, Champagne said. This year, the Jefferson Parish Department of Citizens Affairs suspended the permit for a year, saying it failed to meet minimum participation requirements. Zeus was cited for an insufficient number of marching bands and only nine floats, one fewer than the minimum. A fixture on Lundi Gras since 1957, Zeus was Metairie's oldest Carnival krewe. - WWLTV.COM
Krewe of Bacchus' founding captain turning reins over to son
Owen "Pip" Brennan Jr., the founding captain of the Krewe of Bacchus, has turned over the reins of the city's first super krewe to his son, who was elected captain by a vote of the krewe's members Wednesday. Brennan's son, Clark Brennan, has served Bacchus for decades as a member of the krewe's board and chaired several of the krewe's committees. He has also been a public face of the krewe throughout the year, doing media interviews and appearing at annual events welcoming each year's celebrity monarch. "I am surrounded by a dedicated board of directors who will help me continue the rich traditions of Bacchus while making headway into the future of this incredible krewe," Clark Brennan said in a statement. "Bacchus will sustain its goal of putting on a premiere Mardi Gras parade that focuses the spotlight on the City of New Orleans." Pip Brennan and the founders of Bacchus introduced the concept of a super krewe in 1968, when they founded the club, with a celebrity monarch, huge floats, throws and a post-parade party called the Rendezvous, originally held at the Rivergate. The founders' original idea was to "wake up" what they saw as a somewhat sleepy Carnival season, which had just a handful of parades at the time and no major parade on the weekend before Fat Tuesday. To honor Pip Brennan, Bacchus' board of directors has created the position of "captain emeritus" and elected him to the position. - WWLTV.COM
All-female Krewe of Athena gets approval to parade in Metairie
The Jefferson Parish Council granted approval Wednesday to the new, all-women Krewe of Athena to parade in Metairie during the 2015 Mardi Gras season, Athena spokesperson Chelsie McCormick said. And members are eager to make history. Assistant Principal Taisha Williams-Payne of L.B. Landry-O. Perry Walker High School started the krewe. Williams-Payne, president and krewe captain, said, "I've been doing Mardi Gras for years,'' but there has never been a krewe for her to join with leaders "who look more like me."She said Athena "is history-making." In her research, Williams-Payne, a Marrero resident, said there has been no other krewe led predominately by African-American women in Jefferson Parish. While membership in Athena is limited to women, it is open to all colors and creeds, she said. Athena also has a strong service component, she said. The krewe recently distributed care packages to homeless people under the Claiborne Avenue bridge, and plans are in place to give away school supplies in August to needy chlidren and offer health screenings to the community. Many women in the krewe are educators and nurses, she said. "Our goal is to do Mardi Gras and serve the community." The krewe is aiming to roll the first Friday of Carnival 2015.Visit www.kreweofathena.org. - NOLA.COM • KREWEOFATHENA.ORG
Mardi Gras reality TV show producers seek New Orleans krewe riders
Mardi Gras in New Orleans will get a reality show of its own if TV producers Susie Delava and Johnny Sanchez have their way. The pair sent out a call to krewe members (and to NOLA.com) seeking riders who want to share "the most unique culture in America."Delava, an 18-year veteran of reality TV, has worked on scores of programs seen on Bravo, TLC, Animal Planet, FOX and CBS. Her partner, filmmaker Johnny Sanchez, is a New Orleans native; he has an insider's perspective on Mardi Gras, having experienced the sprawling Carnival season as a band member, float rider and bead-catching spectator.The pair has set up two opportunities for krewe members to meet with them and share stories: Sunday, June 8, noon-5 p.m., Chickie Wah Wah, 2828 Canal St.; and Tuesday, June 10, 4 p.m.-7:30 p.m., Musician's Union Hall, 2401 Esplanade Ave. A short, on-camera interview is part of the process. Coffee and other refreshments will be provided.The producers want a show "about Mardi Gras told through the voices of the people who live it ... complete with the trials and tribulations of balancing family and job with the drive to create the best Mardi Gras possible.
Napoleon construction will keep some parades from traditional route
Mardi Gras krewe captains have learned that the Napoleon Avenue route from Tchoupitoulas Street to St. Charles Avenue will not be open for parades by Carnival season because of ongoing construction. "I'm sure that parade routes will have to be adjusted," said the masked captain of the Knights of Sparta. "I have heard the possibility of using either Louisiana or Jackson avenue to come from the river and begin the parades there. Of course, that would shorten the parade route immensely." It certainly is a problem," said co-captain of the Krewe of Freret Bobby Hjortsberg. "My hope is that the city doesn't decide to cut the route shorter." The Krewe of Freret took the Napoleon route for their inaugural parade. "I hope we can come up with something that allows the route to either be extended longer or at least be the same length. Of course, there's trees and all the things involved with it. It's going to be a massive undertaking, but we have no choice but to come up with a solution," said Hjortsberg.Shortening the route wouldn't be the only option. Some parades already start from Jefferson Avenue, which the masked captain said could be another alternative."There are a number of ways to work that problem, and I'm sure we'll be working with the police in the days to come to solve that problem for each individual organization," he said.. - FOX8LIVE.COM
Number of N.O. parades due to shrink gradually to 30
Under the revised ordinance, the city will issue no more than 30 parade permits each Carnival season, four fewer than in the past. However, any organization granted a permit in the prior Carnival season will be able to hold onto its permit if it meets all requirements. Thus, the number of parades will be reduced only gradually and by attrition. As current organizations drop out, they will simply not be replaced until the number hits 30. Meanwhile, no more than two permits can be issued for night parades on the same date, but again with a grandfather clause exempting organizations that paraded on the corresponding night in the prior year. The number of floats allowed in a single parade has been increased from 27 to 45 "pull units," defined in the ordinance as a single tractor or mule pulling a float or a tandem float. The minimum number of floats still is 14. Parade organizations also will be required to provide each float with a "unique, sequential Arabic number" corresponding with its order in the parade, ending the practice of labeling some floats with letters and others with numbers or Roman numerals. The rules also establish a minimum number of marching bands for each parade, determined by its number of floats. Parades with 14 to 27 pull units must have at least seven marching bands. Those with 28 to 36 pull units must have at least 10. The biggest parades must have at least 14. The previous rules required that parades of all sizes have no less than seven bands. The new ordinance leaves the rescheduling of rained-out parades to the mayor. There previously had been a schedule dictating when each parade would run if it had to be rescheduled because of bad weather. The ordinance also establishes the Mayor's Mardi Gras Advisory Council, made up of representatives from each Carnival organization that paraded the previous year, as a committee that reports directly to the mayor. The body, among other things, will consider applications from prospective Carnival krewes and make recommendations to the mayor about whether a permit should be granted. - THENEWORLEANSADVOCATE.COM
Jefferson Parish recommends revoking permits for two Mardi Gras season parades
Two Mardi Gras season parades in Jefferson Parish failed to meet minimum participation requirements this year, so regulators are calling for revocation of their permits. Their report was released Friday from the Department of Citizens' Affairs.The Krewe of Zeus, which rolled on Lundi Gras in Metairie, was slapped with four citations, three of them stemming from an insufficient number of marching bands. Jefferson requires at least five, and regulators consider each missing band to be a separate violation. In addition, Zeus had only nine floats, one fewer than the minimum, according to parish records. Adonis, which paraded Feb. 22 in Terrytown, failed to roll with the minimum 200 costumed riders, according to the report, which does not say how many riders participated. After its 2013 parade, Adonis was fined $200 for having 20 unmasked riders and smoking on a float.Zeus is Metairie's oldest Carnival parade group. It canceled its 2013 parade over predictions of inclement weather.Representatives of Zeus and Adonis could not be reached for comment Friday afternoon.. - NOLA.COM
Krewe of Gretna trucks seeks permission to roll on Mardi Gras 2015
The Krewe of Gretna formally requested permission to roll on Mardi Gras behind the Krewe of Grela, returning a truck parade to the city for the first time in 14 years. Truck parade Captain Michael Benedetto and organizer Jessica Welty presented their plans to the Gretna City Council last week.Benedetto who runs the Krewe of Jefferson truck parade said that krewe has a number of West Bank members who want to parade at home on Fat Tuesday. "We hope we can help them have this opportunity,'' he said. Welty, Benedetto's daughter, said the krewe hopes to have 15 truck floats in its debut. Elected officials welcomed the new krewe, with Mayor Belinda Constant saying residents have been wanting a truck parade for years. - NOLA.COM

Krewe of Atlas cancels Mardi Gras season parade, jeopardizing Family Gras
The only Mardi Gras season parade scheduled to roll in Metairie on the final day of Family Gras is canceling its 2014 procession for lack of money, the Krewe of Atlas said Wednesday. Atlas is the third Metairie krewe this year to scrap its Carnival parade. Atlas, which historically rolls two Fridays before Mardi Gras, agreed earlier this month to fill a Sunday slot vacated by Krewe of Thor, which canceled because of dwindling membership. Its cancellation jeopardizes the final day of Family Gras, the annual celebration scheduled this year for Feb. 21, 22 and 23. The private Jefferson Convention and Visitors Bureau has jurisdiction over Family Gras, but Sean Burke, Jefferson's citizens affairs director, has said the final day might not go forward without a parade. "There is no sense in having Family Gras if there is no parade," Burke said earlier this month.. - NOLA.COM
Mardi Gras parade rules sail through New Orleans City Council
New Mardi Gras parade rules passed easily through the New Orleans City Council, which approved them unanimously. The new rules, briefly stated, are as follows: Throwbacks, tossing throws back at the maskers, now carry a fine of $250.• Private portable toilets are banned on public property, including the neutral ground. Companies that place toilets on public property will be subject to a $250 fine.• Parking on both sides of St. Charles and Napoleon avenues is prohibited starting two hours before the parade.• Ladders, tents, grills and other "personal effects," must be at least 6 feet back from the curb. Ladders cannot be chained together.• Roping off private areas with ropes, tarps, chairs or anything else is banned.• The sale of "Snap and pop" type firecrackers is banned. Councilwomen LaToya Cantrell and Jackie Clarkson, who cosponsored the ordinances, said that they are the result of nine months of work meeting with neighborhood residents, parading krewes, police and fire officials and the mayor's office. Most of the rules tighten pre-existing restrictions and enjoyed wide support from many in the community. Several other, potentially more controversial, regulations, including a ban on throwing toilet paper off of floats, have been shelved for the time being. During a previous committee meeting on the subject, Clarkson said that she was considering putting a limit on the size and weight of throws. She said that she once took a bag of beads to the face that was heavy enough to cut her, and she's heard similar stories from constituents. A limit on the number of parading krewes and floats is also being considered. Clarkson said that parades have continued as late as 1 a.m. before, putting a strain on the Police Department, which lacks the manpower to adequately staff the parade routes for so long. . - NOLA.COM

Mardi Gras toilet paper ban is off the table
Krewe of Tucks can rest easy. A proposed ban on tossing toilet paper during parades is off the table, according to City Councilwoman LaToya Cantrell's office. The toilet paper taboo was part of a larger ordinance sponsored by Cantrell and City Council President Jackie Clarkson aimed at imposing some order on chaotic Mardi Gras parades. Other proposed rules in the ordinance would require ladders to stay a minimum distance off of the curb, impose a fine for tossing throws back at floats, regulate the placement of grills and other mobile party accoutrement and ban outright the use of "snap 'n pop" fire crackers. While Cantrell was not immediately available for comment, she may have flushed the toilet paper in response to protests from Krewe of Tucks and its supporters. The unfurled toilet roll is the Tucks' unofficial throw. The council could take up the proposed ordinance at a meeting on Jan. 23.. - NOLA.COM
City Council considering ban on Krewe of Tucks signature throw
Known for its light-hearted, unique throws, the Krewe of Tucks aims to poke fun at the old line krewes. For 35 years, toilet paper has been its signature throw. "If you ask anyone, Krewe of Tucks, they think, 'Oh, the parade that throws the toilet paper," said float captain Marc Frischhertz.But you may no longer see that signature toilet tissue flying from floats. The City Council is considering banning it."It was something that came up from the community, the krewes and the administration as something we needed to clean up and address," said Councilwoman LaToya Cantrell, District B. "It takes far more away from us than any benefit we see aesthetically," said Frischhertz. It's part of a comprehensive ordinance that would amend Carnival rules. The proposal includes uniform 6-foot setbacks for grills and ladders, $250 fines for any company that puts a portable toilet on public property, and new parking restrictions on either side of St. Charles Avenue during a parade."We're looking for a clean and safer Carnival season for everyone to enjoy," said Cantrell, who has been working on drafting the ordinance for nearly a year. Tucks representatives are all for a safer Carnival, but say there's nothing unsafe about their throws. The toilet paper is biodegradable and American-made. The krewe says it disappears with the first rainfall, while beads stay in trees for years. - WWLTV.COM
Jefferson Parish officials ask Krewe of Atlas to switch Mardi Gras season parade dates
Jefferson Parish officials have asked the Krewe of Atlas toreschedule its Mardi Gras season parade in Metairie from Feb. 21 to Feb. 23, Atlas President Daniel Murray said Wednesday. He said he is waiting to hear from out-of-townfloat lieutenants before agreeing to the request.The request is designed to make up for a krewe that cancelled on Feb. 23, two Sundaysbefore Fat Tuesday. "They need someone to fill in for Family Gras, I imagine,"Murray said. - BAYOUBUZZ.COM
Hermes' Mardi Gras milestone celebrated with a Presbytere exhibit
In 1936, long before anyone had uttered the words Bacchus or Endymion, anyone who wanted to enjoy the flamboyance and flash of a New Orleans parade during the weekend before Mardi Gras was out of luck. That changed a year later, when the Krewe of Hermes made its debut on Feb. 5, 1937, the Friday night before Fat Tuesday. The organization, named for the Greek god with the winged sandals -- the fastest of the gods -- was formed by a civic-minded group of about 200 men. The display, on the museum's second floor, celebrates Hermes' 75th presentation – the name the krewe gives to the parade and ball – and not the 75th anniversary of its founding, because Hermes had neither parades nor balls during World War II.. - NOLA.COM

Krewe of Thor cancels 2014 parade
Jefferson Parish's Carnival schedule took a significant hit Wednesday as the Krewe of Thor, one of the oldest krewes on the Metairie route, and the parish's newest group, the Guardians of Atlantis, both announced they will not roll in 2014.The announcement comes at what Thor Captain Mac Cantrell described as a "very, very fragile" time for Jefferson's Carnival celebrations, with krewes continuing to lose riders to larger, flashier parades in New Orleans that can offer better throws and celebrity royalty.To halt that decline, Cantrell said, Thor's leadership decided to take a year off to revamp the organization and plan for a comeback in 2015 with a new approach featuring original floats with a satirical bent, something that has not traditionally been a feature of processions on the Veterans Boulevard route.- THEADVOCATE.COM
Metairie's Mardi Gras will maintain parade routes and schedule
Metairie's Mardi Gras season parades will maintain the same route and schedule they have used in previous years. Those are the broad recommendations of the east bank Carnival advisory committee, which was formed in March to investigate those questions and more, and which presented its findings Wednesday to the Jefferson Parish Council.The committee looked at altering the current Veterans Memorial Boulevard route. Among the ideas: eliminating the loop on Bonnabel Boulevard; extending the beginning point of the route westward from Clearview Mall; and reversing the route so the parades would run east to west. It also considered Metairie Road as an alternate route for krewes to choose.Bob Carnesi, captain of the Krewe of Caesar and a member of the committee, said changing the route required a majority vote. But the committee split on the vote.Carnesi said he advocated to drop the Bonnabel loop to cut about one mile from the route. Carnesi said that extra length means that a parade might not finish until after 10 p.m., which is sometimes too late for the children in marching bands. That makes it hard for krewes to recruit bands, long a sore point in Metairie parades. - NOLA.COM
Krewe of Hera to parade with Krewe of Zeus in Metairie next year
The Krewes of Zeus and Hera will team up for next year's Lundi Gras parade in Metairie. Zeus invited Hera to ride as special guests during its parade on March 3rd of next year. Bad weather forced both krewes to cancel their parades this year. The parish council also recently yanked Hera's parade rights after the sheriff's office opened an investigation into complaints from riders. Hera will ride on its own floats since the krewe paid for them before getting their permit pulled. - FOX8LIVE.COM

This is my go to bag for shorter rides. It carries a ton of water and enough food for about 3 hours (for me, I eat a lot). Not a lot of carrying space but that is not what this bag is about. Also not bad to run with if you are into that sort of thing.

I wanted to find pillows that would add a little color to by patio set and coordinate them with my wall colors and natural surroundings of my home. These pillows are perfect to accomplish just that and more. They are functional, beautiful and weather resistant. The delivery took a little while but it was worth the wait. They are perfect!
I was pleased with the pillows as soon as I opened the box. The pillows were a good size and stitched well. Definitely worth the price.
I bought these pillows after I had purchased a bench that complimented our newly remodeled backyard. I am very pleased with the color, size and the way they compliment the bench. The fabric is perfect for outside. Have decided though to keep them inside our shed during rainy days, which are not many where I live.
I bought these along with the matching, smaller oblong pillows. I needed more substantial pillows but I am satisfied. These are outdoor pillows but work perfect for a couch that sees a LOT of wear and ter.
I liked these patio pillows so much that I purchased the coordinating loveseat cushion. The colors are vibrant and the material seems to repel water; the cushions dry quickly after it rains. I keep them outside and there's been no fading from the sun. I'm very pleased with my purchase.

The new location is the second for the full-service security provider - with the other office located in Salem, N.
PALMETTO, Fla. - Having quadrupled revenue from 2003 to 2004, DaBo Fire Suppression Technologies looks to extend its network of fire sprinkler company contacts this year to achieve a revenue target of at least three times than that of last year.

The company expected to close with $400,000 in revenue from fire installations in 2003, and foresees ending this coming year with $1 million on that side of its business, according to Michael Smith, director of sales and marketing.
Prince Edward Island adopts latest NFPA safety codes

I am also surprised how little attention this section of the forum gets. Maybe there is a better website forum elsewhere?
At present I am wrestling with a choice of HTC products - Desire, Desire HD or Z. Any thoughts? I am not really interested in a camera or video viewing, but mainly web surfing, email and a small amount of typing in.

desire hd, if the same price and you can wait. if not the desire normal, but check it has android ver 2.2 some networks have not got this. I am liking this phone more each day as i learn more.
waiting for a clear night to test the google sky night app, not tested the satnav part yet. looking at the various apps can't believe the things some can do. never thought the voice control could be so good, would not mind similar on the pc.

I liked it, it was simple but very original and innovative in more aspects :)
Someone might think the settings were childish but I liked it, especially how it was voice-acted :P
The only thing that dissapointed me is the unability to save progress, I've never finished the game, since I had to left once I was very close and now I don't feel like playing it again
Rated 5 / 5 stars
Charming and very witty - unique gameplay, moderately challenging but not impossible. The instant I finished I wanted to play it again.
All my 5 are indeed belong to this.

Beyonce's Jedi Mind Trick?
by Mike Stanz
posted Aug 29 2014 5:00AM
Mathew Knowles, father of Beyonce and Solange, the famous feuding siblings, says everything that's happened with and between his daughters this summer is nothing more than a Jedi mind trick.
During an interview yesterday, PapaBey was asked about the infamous elevator fight, and about the rumors of the possible royal split of Queen Bey and Jay Z.
"Everybody's talking about it," he said. And sales for the On The Run Tour went up, plus Solange's album sales increased by 200%.

Carnival Miracle Cruise Review by Annual Cruiser Review: COULD HAVE BEEN AWESOME BUT.......

Compare Prices on Carnival Miracle Eastern Caribbean Cruises
The itinerary was great. The cruise director was fantastic. The food was amazing. (Best food on a cruise I have had yet, and I have sailed 6 times with all different cruise lines.) Wide variety of very good food. The entertainment was very entertaining. The ship was very clean and well maintained. The casino was fun. The blue collared staff was hard working and friendly.
The Customer Service was HORRIBLE. Yes, 10000% H O R R I B L E.
This would have been the cruise of cruises, but after dealing with a week of horrible customer service I could not have been any happier to get off of the ship and get home. (Customer service meaning staff at the customer service desk.) From my Sail and Sign card not working several times, to having to wait in 30 minute lines multiple times to get it fixed, to being charged for things I did not use on the ship or that did not work, to finding more unexplained charges on my credit card once I got home, I am glad this More vacation is over. (I am still dealing with Carnival trying to get things straightened out almost a week later.) Not that I could not deal with a mistake, but the customer service failed to correct the problems that I had while on board and I wasted hours of time simply trying to get things correct. I waited all year to "get away" and had to deal with a week's worth of horrible customer service from a bunch of people who seemed to really not care. Although the cruise would have been great, I am not sure if I will ever sail with Carnival again. I never had these sorts of problems with any of the other cruise line and any other sort of small problem was handled right away without the hard time Carnival gave me. Less

A visibly shaken Gary Oldman appeared on ABC's "Jimmy Kimmel Live" Wednesday and apologized profusely for making anti-Semitic remarks in an interview with Playboy magazine.
Oldman spoke haltingly at the start of his appearance, choosing his words carefully and sticking mostly to the script of the apology statement he issued late Tuesday to the Anti-Defamation League. But as he conversed with Kimmel -- and as it became clear the audience was sympathetic, starting with the cheers and applause that greeted Oldman as he walked on stage -- the British actor opened up to Kimmel.
In his interview in the current issue of Playboy, Oldman criticized what he deemed the hypocrisy of politically correctness in Hollywood. He defended actors Mel Gibson and Alec Baldwin, both of whom have spurred public outrage for using epithets in public encounters.
On Wednesday, the ADL further criticized Oldman's apology, saying it was insufficient and only reinforced that he harbors stereotypical beliefs about Jews.
Oldman's appearance on "Jimmy Kimmel Live" was scheduled before the controversy erupted, as the actor is on the promotional tour for Fox's "Dawn of Planet of the Apes," which opens next month. In speaking to Kimmel, Oldman sought to convey his sincere surprise at the the storm stirred by his comments and his understanding as to why they were offensive to many.
"I said some things that were poorly considered," Oldman told Kimmel. "Once I had seen it in print I could see that it was offensive ⦠insensitive ⦠pernicious ⦠and ill informed. Words have meaning, they carry weight long after you've said them, and I don't condone or excuse the words I used in any context. i just basically shouldn't have used them in any context. I have deeply injured and wounded great many people."
While Kimmel thanked Oldman for not canceling his appearance in the wake of the furor, Oldman thanked the latenight host for giving him a platform of apologize. "This gives me the opportunity to say to those people (who were offended) from the my heart I am profoundly, profoundly sorry and deeply apologetic."
Oldman also noted that the questioning in the Playboy interview veered into subject areas that he was not equipped to address, given that he is an actor, not a social commentator. "I stepped out of my area of expertise and I just landed both feet in a hornet's nest," Oldman said.
Kimmel, who is no stranger to accusations of racism and insensitivity in his humor, lightened the mood by telling Oldman: "I'm so happy someone has to apologize on this show and it's not me for once."

Using Java I am trying to initialise member variables at declaring, but for some reason the variables stay at their default values e.g. 0, null etc.
Please see a snippet of example code which demonstrates what I'm trying to accomplish:
public class B extends A {
Map<Integer, Integer> map = new HashMap <Integer, Integer>();
int number = 10;
public B() {
public Map getMap() {
return map;
public int getNumber() {
return number;
The important part of the code are that it is a subclass, and that I'm trying to initialise two member variables at declaration. When I step into the constructor the values of the map and number are null and 0 respectively, what is the reason for this?

In this paper, an algorithm for diagnosis of voltage collapse point is proposed. The algorithm is based on load characteristics, voltage and current measurements. When all loads at a bus are voltage independent type, the voltage collapse point coincides with Maximum Loading Point. In maximum loading point, with voltage and current changes, apparent power delivered to the bus does not increase. In these conditions, BSDC index that is based on the apparent power difference at the bus equals 0 in the voltage collapse point. If load characteristics are not considered, the BSDC cannot detect the voltage collapse point. In this paper an improved version of the BSDC for diagnosis of the voltage collapse when a part of the load is voltage dependent, is proposed. This modification is based on dividing the load into voltage dependent and independent parts. The algorithm is simple enough to implement in a protective relay. The presented algorithm was tested on the IEEE 30 bus test system. The results show the problem of the old method and the correction made by the proposed method.

Jude Law stars in Johnnie Walker Blue Label film
Jude Law, the British film actor, is to star in a short film to promote the Diageo whisky brand Johnnie Walker Blue Label.
Jude Law: stars in The Gentleman's Wager for Johnnie Walker Blue Label
Law plays a lead character alongside the Italian actor Giancarlo Giannini, who appeared in the James Bond films 'Casino Royale' and 'Quantum of Solace'. Jake Scott directed the film through RSA Films.
In the film, called 'The Gentleman's Wager', Law plays the role of a man who, despite having it all, proposes a wager that offers him a challenge. The film tells the story of the friendship between two men and their drive to have "a rare experience".
Law said: "The film is about improvement and progress and this is something I try to do in my work and my everyday life.
"I had to learn new skills shooting this film that combined with the places we visited and shot in, alongside working with Jake and with Giancarlo, (this) made it a truly rare experience."
The film will be released globally on the 30 July, and will be shown at Venice Film Festival.
It was shot in the British Virgin Islands and London.

Federal CTO Chopra Stepping Down
Chopra was sworn in on May 22 of that year, and in the nearly three years since, he has, according to the post, been busy:
Aneesh helped design the President's National Wireless Initiative, including the development of a nationwide public safety broadband network, establish a set of Internet Policy Principles including the call for a Consumer Privacy Bill of Rights, and led the implementation of the President's open government strategy focused on unlocking the innovative potential of the federal government to solve problems and seed the jobs and industries of the future.
In any case, Obama was aware enough about technology and its role in the 21st century to see fit to create a federal post dedicated to overseeing and driving forward technology in the U.S. Now, his first appointee in that role is moving on. There is a widely held assumption that Chopra's next step will be running for lieutenant governor of Virginia, the state where he was previously the secretary of technology from 2005-2009.
If the government gave communications companies the same subsidies they give oil companies (yes, the ones that post multi-billion dollar profits) then we'd have high speed internet everywhere!
The government has tried to kick start high speed internet already, and they've actually ~paid money~ to some of these crooked corporations to do just that. (in the form of huge tax breaks designed to stimulate activity in just this area) But as you can see, it aint so yet.
I agree with realneil. Huge tax breaks haven't yielded the expected results. Along the same lines, huge tax breaks for the wealthy or large corporations hasn't yielded more jobs for the economy as many Republicans would like to preach. Instead, many wealthy individuals have simply re-invested the extra tax savings to make more money... think Mitt Romney.

Jeffe took the crooked road to writing, stopping off at neurobiology, religious studies and environmental consulting before her creative writing began appearing in places like Redbook, Puerto del Sol, Wyoming Wildlife, Under the Sun and Aeon. An erotic novella, Petals and Thorns, came out under her pen name of Jennifer Paris in 2010, heralding yet another branch of her path, into erotica and romantic fantasy fiction. Since then, an erotic short, Feeding the Vampire, and another erotic novella, Sapphire, have hit the shelves. Her contemporary fantasy novel, Rogue's Pawn, will be published in July, 2012. Jeffe lives in Santa Fe, with two Maine coon cats, a border collie, plentiful free-range lizards and frequently serves as a guinea pig for an acupuncturist-in-training.
